UNITED STATES PATENT OFFIC CHARLES HADFIELD, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. IMPROVEMENT IN STICKS EXHIBITION ROCKETS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 26,428, dated December 13, 1859.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES HADFIELD, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Rocket; and I hereby declare that the following is a full "and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in furnishing the usual rocket-stick with a magazine of powder, the said charge of powder being connected with the charge of the rocket, so that on or immediately after the burning of the rocket charge the magazine of powder of the rocket-stick shall be exploded and the stick broken into two or more pieces, thus preventing accidents, which are liable to happen from the falling of the stick in a single piece.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
Figure 1 represents the improved rocket in perspective; Fig. 2, a longitudinal section of the same.
0 represents the rocket proper 5 D, the cap; E, the cone.
The rocket-stick is composed of the three principal partsF, the solid part; A,thesecond head or case for a charge of powder, or powder and stars; F, the part made hollow to carry the leader or fuse B B. Theleader or fuse B B connects the head D- with the second head, A, and is protected by being inclosed in the hollow part or tube F.
The ricket O and the cap D are charged in the usual manner, when the combined stick is attached and its leader connected. The second head, A, may be charged with powder simply, or with powder and stars, and may be arranged to explode at the same time, or otherwise, with the head D. For convenience of packing the part F may be detached and laid alongside'the part F.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The rocket-stick inolosing or in connection with a magazine of powder in the manner and for the purposes herein set forth.
