Definitions

  • a film of oil can be maintained over the entire surface of the bore of a gun ⁇ barrel by means of a perforated tube, adapted to retain oil, the outside surface of which is covered with an oilpermeable material, which tube can be ⁇ inserted into the barrel of the gun. Also provided is an imperforate casing the inside of which is covered with an oil-impregnated material, the material being shaped to contact the outer surface of a gun barrel when present inside the casing.
  • This ⁇ invention relates to gun accessories for oilng the barrels of guns, such, for example, as shot guns.
  • Theyobject of this invention is to provide a gun accessory which can be used for oiling a gun barrel and for maintaining a satisfactory coating of oil over the surface of the bore of the barrel.
  • a gun barrel oiling device comprises a perforated tube the outside surface of which is covered with an oil-permeable material, the tube being adapted to retain oil and the construction being such that the tube can be inserted into the barrel of a gun with the oil-permeable material in contact ywith the bore of the gun whereby oil within the tube can diffuse through the perforations and the oil-permeable material to maintain a coating of oil on the bore of the barrel.
  • the tube may be a flexible plastics tube and the oil-per meable material may be an oil-resistant porous plastics foam or a felt.
  • At least one ⁇ end of the tube should preferably be closed by a plug or other removable closure, but one ⁇ end may, if desired, be permanently closed.
  • the accessory defined above is used together with a second device ⁇ comprising an imperforate casing or sheath the inside ICC
  • a second device comprising an imperforate casing or sheath the inside ICC
  • the casing 01' sheath may be split longitudinally to receive the barrel (or barrels) when the stock is removed. End caps may be employed to keep the halves of the casing together. By this means, when the gun is out of use, the barrel will be totally enclosed in a cover which is impregnated with gun oil.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a gun accessory according to the present invention in use with the barrels of a double-barrelled gun
  • FIG. 2 shows a transverse section through the gun accessory and barrels of FIG. l.
  • each of the tubes 1 is permanently closed by a plug 7, and the other end of each of the tubes is closed by a threaded plug 9 which engages in a thread 11 on the inside of the tube 1 and which can be removed for the purpose of re-lling the tubes 1 with oil.
  • Knobs 13 are provided on the plugs 9 to facilitate the rotation and removal of the plugs 9.
  • the barrels 3 are enclosed in an imperforate casing 1S which may be of solid plastics material or of rigid plastics material foam having a continuous outer skin.
  • the casing 15 is lined with oil-permeable material 17 into which the barrels 3 t snugly.
  • the oil-permeable material 17 is impregnated with oil which serves to maintain a coating of oil on the outer surfaces of the barrels 3.
  • the casing 15 is split longitudinally to receive the barrels 3, and end caps 19 are provided which ft over the ends of the casing 15 and keep the halves of the casing 1S together.
  • a gun barrel oiling device which comprises a perforated tube, a covering of oil-permeable material on the outside surface of said tube, said tube retaining oil therein, and said tube being constructed for insertion into a gun barrel whereby oil within said tube cau diffuse outwardly through the perforations of said tube and said oil-permeable material to maintain a coating of oil on the bore of the barrel.
  • a device in which at least one end of said tube is closed by a removable closure member.
  • FOREIGN PATENTS 8 A device according to claim '7, in which said casing is split longitudinally.
  • a device including end caps adapted to t over the ends of said casing and to keep lo BENJAMIN A BORCHELT Primary Exammer the halves of said casing together.
