and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description ofthe construction and operation ofthe same.
I his invention relates to that class of guns known as breech loaders, and it has for its the gun absolutely safe, andimpossible o r accidental discharge.
In fguns where no especial provi ed for placing in norma Y ino erative condition the actuating spring for t c ham-4 mer, vthere is always a liability of the gun being discharged by stri ving the butt upon any Obj ect, yor by ariI accidental movementl of th'e trigger. 'In my invention the actuating spring for the hammer is normally in a relaXed condition, and can only be placedl in a condition for actual firing bythe operation Of bringing the lgun into osition forrsuch ing 1n e hand provisions are such' condition being controlled by t of the operator that is supporting the barrel of the gun. I l
While the invention is shown as applied to a single barreled breech loadin gun, vit i's obvious that it may be usedwitgh equal aclvantage upon rifles with magazines, double or single barreled, sporting or military rifles, or upon air guns.' P y y Referring now tothe drawings forming a art of :this application, Figure 1 is a vertical ongitudinal section through the gun, the parts beingshown in the position they. as sumerwhen no compression is upon the lactuating spring. Fig. 2.is a similar view showing' the position lthe part'sassume atjthe in-` tho handgrip then lbeing vin (its rearward position, the 'connection be-r tween the Yhammer operating spring and the hammer being omitted land the plate which c'cnnects .the upper endsjofthe cock-lever rr embers being broken .away for, clearness' of 4illustration,l Fig. 3ds a view showing-the landl grip," the hammer and the connections betweenl said grip ,andV hammer. is aview`showing the underside of thel breech block. Fig. isla view showingv the top of .the breech bleek seat with 1the"openngsf for rendering'A l block locking bolt. Fig. 6 is a detail view of the hand gri and Fin. 7 .is a side viewf a section of the arrel, the breech block and the spring for extracting after lfiring.
Taking up `a description of the invention with reference to the drawings, A. represents the stock of the gun lto which is secured, in any suitable manner, the barrel B. At the rear of the barrel is a seat C for thebreeoh block D, said block being adapted to move back and forth upon tho said seat. l his breech block is shown in detail in Fig. 4, said figure illustrating the lower sid'eof the block. From .this figure it will be seen that .the breech block is provide or recesses a, b, and c, the cavity ay containing the firing pin F, the cavity l being adapted to receive the hammer when it is in discharging position and the cavity c being adapted to receive the free, end of the looking bolt J, said bolt locking the breech block in its closed position. p
Below the barrel, and parallel therewith, is a short tube Gr, upon which there is adapted to vslide the hand grip M. yihis grip is secured to the tube by a transverse screw or pin I, which pin extends through the grip and through slots N on diametrioally opposite sides ofthe tube Cr. To the screw or pin I within the Itube G there is pivoted the iorsaid connecting r d extending' rearwardly through the tube its rear end to the lower/end of the cooking lever K. rIhis cooking lever, which is nivotedv on a transverse pin c, is composer two .parallel plates, as shown in Fig. 3, said plates being connected at their upper ends at w, to form a framc,for a purpose hereinafter specified. The lower ends of these plates are connectedtogether by a cross/pin d, to which the forked end of the connecting rod H vis secured. Pivoted upon the transverse in e between the plates of the cooking lev or Ii., is the hammer E,said hammer-being provided On-its lower end with shoulders f and fi., ,for la purpose. hereinafter rods being guided at their rear ends by a pin nected to the'upper en lcooking lever, and extending rearwardly 5k j-whichvpasses l.transversely ,through the lower end of an garni l therefrom are two lhorizontal rods y', said that'i's connected with therein for Athe hammer and for the'breech` the cartridge shell d-with three cavitiesv and being connected at set forth, Con, dsof the plates of the ONTARIO, CANADA, ,AS-.SIGNOR TO ROBERT M. QARDINER, OF i HAMILTON, ONTARIO, CANADA.
ward endof a forked connecting rod H,
the locking bolt J for the breech bloclr. The
rear ends of the horizontal rods y' are slotted at m, the ends of .the pin lc moving lback and -forth iii these slots.
Zontal rods y', by means of a transverse pin n, is the rear end of the. main actuating spring L, said spring being secured at its forward end to the hammer E at a point' o, said securing point beiiig'located above the pin or screw e upon which ,the hammer is piv- Y oted. f
The trigger gis provided at itsupper end with' a forwardly projecting inger' h, said' finger 'being normally held in an elevated Aposition by means of a spring q that is attached tothe gun in -front of the trigger.
rihis finger h is adapted to engage with the shouldersf andi on t ie hammer.
The breech block locking bolt J yis pivoted on a pin j normally held in elevated position 'so as to engage with the forward end of the cavity or recess c by a spring p, and when 1 thus engaged, the breech block'will be locked against rearward movement. i hen in'its elevated position, 'the locking bolt J extendsv upwardly through a slot s iii the seat for the barrel when the breech block is breech block. i'his breechv block seat-is also provided with a similar slot u through which the strking end of the hammer E may operate.
Secured to the upper ai'id forward portion of the breech block is aA-spriirg t), said spri'. .g being held in position by a screw]I passing therethrough and into the breech block.
i he forward end of this spring is provided with ahook that is adapted to A engage against the rim of the cartridge shell P and draw said shell backwardly out of the gun ulled back, which movement of the breech b ook may be effected. by engaging with the shoulder or lug t. 'Vi-hen the cartridge shell -is moved backward to .an extent suiiicient t'o be withdrawn from.' the gun barrel, the lower edge of the rim of the shell will engage with the forward end of the breech block locking bolt J, which engagement will resist the further movement of that portion of the shell, which will result in tipping the latter into the position shown -in hig. 7, so that it is thrown out of thegun.
The hand grip' M is normally held iai itsA first operation will consist in thrusting the hand grip M forwardly to the extent of its' movement in that direction, said movement being limited by the engagement of the pin or screw I with the ends of the slots N in the Connected to the hori-' eineee tube G. This movement throws the ,upper ends of the cooking lever l rearwardly, which carries the rods? back until they depress the loc ring bolt I out ofengagement with the breech bloclnrlliis movement also results in swinging the hammer E intosuch -positien that the finger it on the trigger will engage with the shoulder f, thereby cooking the gun, it being understood that the part w, that connects the upper ends of the eide plates of the cooking lever, rocks the hammer baclrwardly. 4The operator then grasps thelug t on the breech block and draws the latter rearwardly, thereby. extracting the' far, however, there has been .no tension placed upon the main actuating spring L, so
that it is impossible to fire the gun, although vthe same is loaded and cocked. `he next operation consiste in pulling, with the hand that'supportsthe gun barrel, the grip M to its full rearward position. rlhis movement 4rohs the cooking lever l into the position shown in Fig. 2, and moves the part w away from the hammer although the. latter will remain in 'engagement with the trigger finger h, lThe rocking ofthe coiling lever draws forwardly the rods j, which carry the reai' end of the mainactuating spring, and thereby places said spring under tension, suoli that when the trigger is pulled rearwardly, the hammerl will be thrown forwardly against the rear end of the firing pin F, thereby i'iring the cartridge. The release of the grip then permits'the spring R to rock the cooking 'lever into the position shown in Fig. 1, therebyautomatically cooking the gun and .placing the parts in their normal position, this being the position of the parts when the' gun is lnot iii use.
From this. description it will be understood' that it is impossible to iire'the gun unless the hand grip M is .drawn rearwardly and the trigger is pulled while. said grip is held in its rearward position. The simultaneous operation of these two partsbeing practically iinpossible without intent, it is evident that the gun is renderedv absolutely safe. A Furthermore., as thehand grip M is operated by the hand which supports the gun barrel, the operation of drawing backwardly the grip takes place in the normal pointing and sighting of the gun, so that' this operation requires no additional effort on the part of the operator.
As will appear from an inspection of l,
the Vcross bar'w which connects the lever plates K. is interposed between the hammer, when Cooked, and the tiring in is retained in such position by means of t e spring R and lotended to be'limited to such details any iurrel and means connecting said grip With the after the hammer is'cocked for placing said said barrel and means closed position, a normally cocked hammer, an actuating spring for said hammer, sai spring being normally inactive While the hammer is cocked, a hand grip, and means whereby the movement ol said grip simultaneously places said spring under stress an locks the breech block in closed position,
8. ln a safety firearm, a normally cocked hammer, a spring for actuating said hammer, said spring being normally inactive While the hammer is cocked, a i nections between said grip and said spring and hammer, whereby the movement of the gri in one direction Will cock the hammer. anc the movement thereof in the opposite direction .will Yplace the spring under stress for actuating the hammer.
9.A ln a safety fire-arm, a normally cocked hammer, a spring i'or actuating said hammer, said spring being normally inactive when the hammer is cocked, a breech biock, a`lock-ing the connecting rod H. 1t will be thus seen that the connecting member w serves as a locking means for preventing the movement of the hammer.
