4 Claims. or. 42-70 "This invention provides a safety system for firearms which renders the firing mechanism inoperative at all tunes except when the gun is in normal shooting position with the butt pressed against the shoulder of the shooter. The
number of shooting accidents every year testifies to the inadequacy of manually-operated safety devices. En-
tirely apart from sheer carelessness, situations frequently institutions.
The general principle of operation of this invention in- -volves the use of a source of energy which is connected to the safety mechanism only when the gun is in normal shooting position. In this position, a connection is made which enables the energy source to activate a mechanism The safety system does not involve any projecting external mechanical actuating members which could be accidentally .moved by contact of the gun with some solid object. The internal mechanical components of the mechanism are preferably so balanced that the efiect of inertia forces will notbe sufficient to accidentally place the mechanism in firing condition.
The several features of the invention will be analyzed in detail through a discussion of the particular embodi- In the drawing:
Figure lpresents a side elevation of a single-barrel shotgun embodying the preferred form of the invention.
Figure 2 presents a partial section on an enlarged scale from that of Figure 1, and showing the internal action mechanism of the gun illustrated in Figure 1. t
Figure 3 presents a view of the equipment attached to the garment of the shooter, according to the preferred form of the invention. I
Figure 4 presents a modified form of the invention involving' permanent magnetic forces.
Figure 5 presents a further modified form of the invention.
Referring to Figure 1, the shotgun indicated generally at is of standard construction, except for the modification necessary for the installation of the safety mechanism described herein. The trigger guard 11 protects the trigger 12, and the stock 13 extends to the rear in the usual fashion where it terminates at the butt where the contacts 14 and 15 are located. These contacts are separated by the insulated butt plate 16, and wires shown in dotted lines at 17 extend from the contacts 14 and 15. respectively, to the solenoid 18. A long hole 19 provides place.
. 2 for the passage for the wires 17 through the length of the stock 13.
Referring to Figure 2, the frame 20 provides for the pivotal mounting of the trigger 12 on the pin 21, and the frame also includes the transverse plate 22. The firing pin 23 operates through an opening in the plate 22, andis projected toward the cartridge (not shown) by the spring 24. The sear member 25 restrains the firing pin 23 as long as it is engaged with the notch 26, where it is held by the portion 27 of the trigger 12 until firing takes Rotation of the trigger in a clockwise direction disengages the portion 27 from the sear member 25, which permits the sear to move downwardly under the action of the conventional biasing (not shown) to disengage the sear from the notch 26.
A safety member 28 of magnetic material is pivotally mounted on the frame 20 on the pin 29, and prevents clockwise rotation of the trigger when in the full line position shown in Figure 2. When the solenoid 18 is energized, a field of magnetic flux is created which tends to draw the upper portion of the safety member 28 toward it to create a closed magnetic circuit across the ends of the horseshoe-shaped core 30. This attraction draws the safety member 28 into the dotted line position shown in Figure 2, and releases the trigger. A convenient method for mounting the solenoid and core assembly is possible because of the presence of the transverse plate 22. A suitable aperture is provided in the plate 22 for the passage of the reduced portion 31, and this is riveted over as shown at 32 to complete the attachment.
When the solenoid 18 is not energized, the light spring 33 returns the safety member 28 to the position shown in full lines. The un-energized position is normal, and persists until the gun is placed in the normal shooting position illustrated in Figure 1, in which the butt of the gun is pressed against the shoulder of the shooter. Under these conditions, contact is made between the contacts 14 and 15 and the conductive patches of screen 34 and 35 on the surface of the garment 36, and the screen patches are connected to the opposite poles of the battery 37 through the terminals 38 and 39. Under these conditions, the voltage established by the battery between the screen patches 34 and 35 is applied to the wires 17, which are received under the contact points 14 and 15, respectively,
and to the solenoid 18. The gun is then placed in firing position.
It is preferable that the garment 36 be either an auxiliary piece attached to a hunting jacket, or a part of the hunting jacket itself. The wires 40 and 41 extending from the battery terminal clip can be conveniently concealed in the garment, with the battery placed in a pocket where it is convenient for changing.
The modification illustrated in Figure 4 involves a somewhat different source of energy. In this situation, the safety mechanism is adapted to respond to a field of magnetic flux. A conventional horseshoe magnet can be placed in the position of the patches 34 and 35, which serves to attract the block 42 of magnetic material and thereby move the actuating rod 43. This stock 44 and the remainder of the gun can be of similar construction to that illustrated in Figure l, with the butt plate 45 being conventional. The weight of the block 42 creates the possibility that inertia forces resultingfrom jostling the gun might accidentally place the gun in unsafe condition. To avoid this situation, a counterbalance assembly is provided which is mounted on the bracket 46. This bracket is essentially U-shaped in cross section, and provides bearings for the pivot pin 47. The arm 48 is pivotally mounted at this point, and is also pivotally connected to the actuating rod 43 at 49. The opposite end of the counterbalance is turned to form a U-shaped section embracing the block 42, for the dual purpose of creating weight and for stabilizing the end of the block 42. The weight of the counterbalance and the pivot-position can be established such that it exactly counterbalances the inertia forces effective on the block 42.
Referring to Figure 5, a further modification is shown in which the trigger 50 is intercepted by the safety catch 51, which is pivotally mounted on the triggerguard 52 at the pin 53. The catch 51 is of magnetic material, and is acted upon by the magnetic flux created by the solenoid 54. When the solenoid 54 is energized through the wires 55, the catch 51 is drawn downward against the action of the spring 56 to the point that the trigger 50 is released.
It is preferable to incorporate a system for visually indicating the safe condition of the action, particularly when the concealed safety mechanism of Figures 1, i2, and 4 is used. Referring to Figure 2, a signal 57 is preferably secured to the safety member 28, and is visible through an aperture in the frame 22 covered by a window 58. A prism member 59 is positioned to deviate the light rays to render the position of the signal 57 visible from the normal sighting position of the eye.
The particular embodiments of the present invention which have been illustrated and discussed herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not to be considered as a limitation upon the scope of the appended claims. In these claims, it is my intent to claim the entire invention disclosed herein, except as I am limited by the prior art.
