Hfs /forney Patented July 24, 1951 TOY PERCUSSION GUN Harry J. Criner, Davenport, Iowa, assignor of onehalf to A. G. Bush, Davenport, Iowa Application December 28, 1946, Serial No. 718,925
3 Claims. 1
My invention relates to toy guns in which a spring-operated drawbar is used to drive a carrier ring slidably mounted upon the barrel to propel a projectile carried by the carrier ring.
The objects of my invention are to provide a toy gun which may be operated by a manually actuated crank or by a trigger and which will drive a ring projectile or a tubular slide along `the barrel; to provide means by which the tubular slide, after being red, will be automatin cally returned to its charged position in the carrier; to provide such a gun which will act as a repeater when operated by the crank and will simulate the sound and action of a machine gun. p
Other objects will appear from the description.
I accomplish these objects by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a longitudinal section on the line I-I of Figure 2;
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section on the line 2-2 of Figure l;
Figure 3 is a cross-section on the line 3-3 of VFigure 2;
Figure 4 is a sectional detail on the line 4-4 of Figure 5; Figure 5 is a sectional detail of an alternate form of the line 5-5 of Figure 4.
Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
My gun comprises a stock I which may be of wood, plastic or metal as desired, and may be formed by shaping, casting, stamping or other means.
The front end of the stock is extended to form a seat for the barrel 4 which may be secured to the stock by any suitable means, such as a pin or bolt 4I.
A chamber I-I is formed in the front extension of the stock I-a.
A shaft S is revolvably mounted in the sides of the extension of the stock and has a crank I2 united to one end thereof with a handle II secured to the outer end of the crank by which it can be turned. The opposite end of the shaft 9 h-as a head formed thereon or may be secured l is slidable in slots 5 and 6 formed in the barrel. The outer ends of the pin I'I are firmly seated in a cylindrical carrier I8 slidably mounted upon the barrel 4 and so arranged that as the crank I2 is revolved in the direction shown by the arrow in Figure 2, the yoke I U will engage the upturned rear end of the drawbar I3 and carry the drawbar downward and backward until the drawbar comes into engagement with the shaft 9 when the yoke will be detached from the rearend of the drawbar and the drawbar will be rapidly drawn forward by the tension spring I4 carrying with it the carrier I8.
A tubular slide 20, which may be attractively colored, is mounted upon the barrel and made of a size to permit it to slide into an enlarged bore I9 in the front end of the carrier I8, fitting freely therein, but just closely enough to prevent being dislodged by gravity if the gun is pointed downward.
At the front end of the barrel a cylindrical buffer 2| is secured by the transverse pin 8. The rear end of the buffer 2| has an enlarged bore formed therein in which a compression spring 32 is secured by any suitable means around the barrel.
A trigger guard 2 may be attached to the barrel by set screws 3 or other suitable means.
As an alternate form, a tubular slide 22 is slidably mounted in the barrel with a trigger 23 united thereto which extends downwardly through a slot 24 formed in the extension I-a of the stock. An upward projection or lug 32-I is formed on the lower side at the rear end of the slide 22 and when constructed in this form, the drawbar I3 has its rear 25 extended obliquely upwardly in position to cont-act a transverse pin 24-I secured in the rear end of the barrel by which the drawbar will be released from the lug 32-I or detained at the rear of the slide 22. `When arranged in this form, the rear end of the drawbar is arranged to slope downwardly enough to have a downturned portion near the rear end thereof to engage the lug or detent 32I, the lfront end of the drawbar being connected to the spring I 4 and to the carrier I8 as in the other form.
In the operation of my gun, the parts are assembled as shown in the drawing and the barrel secured in place with the yoke Ill free to revolve in the chamber I--I and in the barrel.
As the crank I 2 is turned, the yoke will engage the upwardly-turned projection at the rear of the drawbar I3 and carry the drawbar downwardly and to the rear, thus exerting tension upon the spring I4. As the drawbar is carried toward its rearmost position, and after passing below the shaft 9, it moves upwardly and contacts the shaft 9 and is released from the yoke I0, which continues its upward movement. The tension of the spring I4 then carries the drawbar forward and with it the carrier I8 which in turn carries the tubular slide 20 and throws it forward forcibly so as to strike the spring 372 `Joy which the slide '29 is bounced backl into .thebore I9 of the carrier I8 as the operation is repeated.
This operation may be repeated with considerable rapidity by rapidly turning the crank` I2,.
In theA alternate form, the trigger 23 is pushed forward manually until the lug y32-'I-fhas engaged the projection at the rearfof thedraw- The trigger 23 is then drawn to the,v rear carrying the drawbar with iit Iuntil the' bar I3.
The slide 20 is preferably painted with som'e 'bright color such as orange or red `to simulate 4a flame. 'Various modifications may be made in `the form, proportions and arrangementsy ofv the parts Without departing from the spirit 'of my invention and I do not limit my claims to the 'precise forms shown in the drawings.
