Application filed November 12, 1886. Serial No. 218,728. (No model.) Patented in Germany February 18, 1886, No. 36,628.

T0 aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ANsELM LUTZ, 0f Mannheim, in the Grand Duchy of Baden and German Empire, have invented new and useful Apparatus for Filling Gunpowder in Cartridge-Shells, of which the following is aspecification, reference being had therein to the ac companying drawings, no patents being obtained anywhere until now by me for this invention, except in Germany, No. 36,628, dated February 18, 1886, and in France, No. 163,793, dated June 2, 1886.
My invention relates to apparatus for filling gunpowder in cartridge-shells.
The present method of filling cartridgeshells with powderthat is to say, by using a funnel and measure for the purpose-causes much loss of time in wholesale filling. I have constructed a cartridge filling or priming apparatus in which the quantity of powder necessary for each cartridge is measured by a self-acting appliance and poured into the open cartridge-shell by means of a simple pressure to the apparatus.
Figure 1 shows a vertical section of the apparatus before use. Fig. 2 shows a vertical section of the apparatus when acting. Fig. 3 shows a vertical section of a modification of the apparatus. Fig. 4 is a partial vertical section of the apparatus, showing the side opening, 0, of the tubef. Fig. 5 is a crosssection through Fig. 2, following the line I I. Fig. 6 is a top view of Fig. 3.
a is a vessel filled with gunpowder, into the lid of which a tube, 1), is firmly screwed. Upon this tube slides a shell, f, which is provided with a lateral aperture, 0, and a globular enlargement,together with funnel 6. Shell fis firmly connected by means of a pin, g, with a slide-piece, h, in the tube 12, and is guided in a slit, 8, on tube 1). A screw-bolt, 70, connected with a valve or locking-piston, 2', passes in a vertical direction through the tube. A spiral spring, Z,winds round the screw-bolt 7c and ends in the slide-piece h and screw piece m. The object of this spiral spring 1 is to push down the slide-piece,together with the shell f, of itself as soon as the pressure has ceased.
The powder is filled into the cartridge-shell in the following way: The apparatus is taken up in the full hand and its funnel-shaped part 6 is put into the hole of the cartridge-shell. By pressing on the latter the shellf is shoved up to its globular part over tube 1) into the vessel or, and owing to the simultaneous and forced ascending of the slide-piece the spring is compressed. The lateral aperture 0, through which the powder runs into the measuring space m, is closed by part of the shell f reaching over tube 1), by which means any subsequent fall of powder is avoided. The quantity of powder intended for the cartridgeshell is thus measured, and when the valve or lockingpiston i enters the globular part of the shellfit falls from all sides into the cartridge shell, Fig. 2. As soon as the pressure ceases, spring e shoves the slide'piece and at the same time the shellfout of the vessel, valve 1' shots the bottom of measuring-space m again, and the powder can again run in through the reopened lateral aperture 0.
The measuring-space is regulated as regards its size and according to the quantity of pow der required for the different cartridges by screwing bolt is in or out, by which means the space is made larger or smaller.
Fig. 3 represents a modification of this invention. A slit is made on each side of tube 1) and in it run screws 2), which connect the shellf with the slide-pieces h. The slits let the powder pass into the measuring-space and from there into the cartridge. The globular funnel falls back into its original position every time after being used.
By the construction of this cartridge-filling apparatus I have rendered it possible to fill a great number of cartridge-shells in a short time with a certain quantity of powder by simply setting and pressing the filling apparatus on the hole of the cartridgeshell.
\Vhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
An apparatus for filling powder into cartridgeshells, consisting in the combination of 5 a vessel, (1, with a tube, 1), fastened in it and intended to'hold a bolt, it, round which a spiral spring, Z, winds, the said bolt being provided with a valve or loelzing-ptstou, i, l of filliug a cartridge shell automatously by and a shell, f, made to'slide over the tube and pressing said apparatus on the hole of the car- IO provided with iateral apertures c and'fuunel tridgegshell, substantially as described.
