UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM A. LooKETT,
OF BRENHAM, TEXAS.
CARTRIDGE-LOADING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.- 302,207, dated July 15. 188%.
I Application filed April29, 1884. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it-known that I, WILLIAM A. LOOKETT, of Brenham, in the county of Washington and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Attachments to Cartridge-Loading Blocks, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to an improved attachment for cartridge loading blocks, by which first the required quantity of powder, and after the wads have been inserted the required quantity of shot, is supplied for all the cartridges in the block at one and the same time, whereby considerable time and laborin loading cartridges is saved.
The invention consists of afilling attach ment to cartridge-loading blocks,which is composed of a hopper part having discharge-tubes in the bottom and a perforated and spring-actuated slide piece havin g perforations registering with said tubes, and of alower part having upwardly-extending tubes sliding on the bottomtubes of the hopper and downwardly-extending tubes of conical shape thatfit into the cartrldge-shells,and are opened or closed by a second spring-actuated slide-piece havingope'nings' which register with'the tubes of the Two or more of the upper tubes of the hopper portion are provided with fixed .pins, which look into notched and inclined slots of exterior socket-tubes, whereby the hopper portion may be set to a greater or smaller distance from the bottom portion,and
thereby the length of the charging-tubes be- 35.
, so as to supplylarger or smaller quantities of tween the slide-pieces increased or decreased,
powderand shot.
Inthe accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents asideelevation; partly in section, of my improved attachment for cartridge-loading blocks; and Fig. 2, a vertical transverse section on lines: at, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of refer spending parts.
My improved attachment for loading-blocks consists of two main parts, each provided with a springactuated slide-piece. The upper or hopper portion consists of a hopper, A, pronce indicate correvided with fixed downwardly-extending tubes B B, and of a slide-piece, 0, having openings a, that register with the openings'ofthe tubes B when the-slfdepiece O is moved forward inserted into the shells.
and the handle portion of the slide-piece G,as'
shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1. The lower or bottom portion of the attachment is composed of a plate, D, provided with upwardly-extending tubes B, that fit over the tubes B of' the hopper A, and with shorter conically-tapering tubes D at the under side, that fit into the cartridge shells which are placed into the loadingblock E. A second slide-piece, F, is guided in ways of the plate D, and provided with openings bb, that register with the tubes B B when the slide'pieceF is pushed forward against the tension of its springs F. The lower portion is made adjustable on the tubes B Bof the hopper'portion by means of two or .more socket-tubes, 13. which are soldered to the bottom of the hopper A concentric to the inner tubes, B, sothat the tubes B of the lower portion can be readily slid in between the inner tubes, B, and the socket-tubes B The socket-tubes B are provided with inclined slots d, having notches d, that engage fixed pins cl of the tubes B, whereby the parts may be set at greater or smaller distance from each other, according to the notches into which the pins d are inserted, so thatagreater or smaller quantity of powder or. shot may be inserted into the cartridges as required by thesize of the same.
'My improved attachment to loading-blocks is used as follows: The hopper and bottom parts are first adjusted into their proper positions to each other, so as to supply therequired quantity of powder and shot. conical bottom tubes of the attachment are then filled with'powder, after which the slide-piece O is pushed sidewise, so that the telescoping tubes B B are filled with powder. The lower slide-piece, F, is then pushed sidewise,whereby the charge ofpowder in the tubes B B is deposited in the shells of the loading-block. The attachment is then placed on the next The-- The hopper is next loading-block, and the same process repeated until all the shells are loaded with powder. The wads are then placed on the powder in the shells of the cartridges, and the hopper filled with shot, after which the same operations are repeated as before described. A large number of shells can thus be loaded rapidly at a 0, and slotted and notched guide-tubes B, with z 5 an adjustable bottom part formed of a plate, D, having upper tubes, B, provided with stoppins b", a spring-actuated slide-valve, F, and conioally-tapering bottom tubes, D, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM A. LOOKETI.
