Abstract: 10,380. Smith, A. D. May 1. Couplings, automatic, of the type described in Specifications 25,997/01 and 11,698/11. The rear face of the draw-hook b fixed within the buffer coupling-head is formed with a stopped lower part d extending further to the rear than the upper part e so that, while coupling is effected when the link c on the opposing vehicle engages with the part e, a tighter coupling results on pushing the vehicles together when the link c falls into engagement with the part d. The hook b may be removably fixed in the bufferhead to facilitate renewal. The link c is provided at the rear with trunnions g moving in a recess h in the buffer-head, as described in Specification 11,698/11, and, to ensure that it will pivot about an axis which is approximately in the central horizontal plane of the buffer, the rear wall of the recess h is formed with recesses k, and the trunnions g are cut away at n, Fig. 1, to shoulder against the lower ends of the recesses k. In a modification, Fig. 2, the trunnions g are each formed with a projection o in place of the shoulder n. In a further modification, Fig. 3, the recesses k are curved to receive the trunnions g.

Abstract: 5598. Compagnie des Forges et AciÚries de la Marine et d'HomÚcourt. April 4, 1912, [Convention date]. Turrets; mountings.- Relates to four-gun turrets, and consists in an arrangement of the guns in two pairs in the same horizontal plane, in twin cradles. Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken in part through the cradle trunnions, and in part in a plane to the rear of the trunnions. Each of the twin cradles B is formed in two parts B<1>, B<2>, which parts are connected together by a dummy trunnion b<1> and by bolts D', so that the two parts may be relatively adjusted for muzzle-velocity differences between the two guns A, A of a pair. Elevating-gears e, e', e<2> are provided, and a clutch g enables the two sets of gear to be coupled so that all four guns may be elevated together. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) comprises also a longitudinal central partition in the turret, provided at its front and rear ends with chambers for the gun captains and other individuals, and also a training-gear consisting of an horizontal shaft, power-driven or manually operated, driving through friction or worm gearing two vertical shafts, one at each end, carrying pinions geared with the training-rack. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted. Loading-appliances.-The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) further comprises an ammunition supply system for a four-gun turret having the guns arranged in pairs in one horizontal plane. Two ammunition hoists are used, one for each pair, but the cages of each upper-hoist are arranged so that one may be worked independently of the other. Double cages are used in the lower hoists. A reserve of projectiles is kept in the turret, and devices are provided for feeding these projectiles to the rear of the guns. The powder-charge bogies at the bottom of the hoist are two circular superposed revolving trays, between which and the hoist tube, the servers stand on a platform revolving with the tube. The projectile bogies run one on an overhead track, and one on rails on the deck. They are electrically driven through friction gear, which slips when the bogies become automatically locked to the hoist tube in the discharging position. If the hoist cages are in receiving positions, the projectile bogies discharge themselves automatically. This subject-matter also does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
