Abstract
A trigger mechanism having a trigger plate slidably carried in a firearm frame for linear movement. The plate includes a rear cam surface on which a sear functions via a cam follower. The plate is provided with a single hole for holding a leg or pin of a firing valve L-shaped member. The frame has a pair of aligned slots separated by the trigger plate for slidably receiving the leg or pin of the L-shaped member. A stop lug is integrally provided on the trigger plate ahead of the L-shaped member mounting hole operable to engage the frame to stop forward movement by the trigger plate. An anti-frictional coating or finish is carried on external surfaces of the trigger plate and the sear.
Claims14
A trigger mechanism comprising:
- a firearm frame having a trigger recess defined between frame sections;
- a trigger plate slidably disposed in said trigger recess and having a valve actuating hole;
- and
- a trigger valve operating member having a pin extending through said hole and movable in a limited rectilinear direction in response to sliding movement of said trigger plate.
In a trigger mechanism for operating a firing mechanism operatively mounted on a frame, the combination comprising:
- a flat trigger plate movably carried on said frame for moving in a fore and aft direction with respect to said frame;
- said frame having a recess defined between a pair of frame sidewalls and said recess occupied by said trigger plate;
- said frame having a forward shoulder terminating one end of said recess serving as a stop for terminating movement of said trigger plate in said fore direction;
- said trigger having a circular hole of a given diameter;
- said frame sections having an elongated slot in axial alignment with said hole in said plate;
- and
- a trigger pin occupying said hole and passing through said slots.
A trigger mechanism comprising:
- a gun frame having a recess defined between separated wall sections;
- said wall sections provided with aligned elongated slots separated by said recess;
- said frame having a front stop shoulder at one end of said recess and said slots having a rear end constituting a rear stop shoulder;
- a trigger plate slidably carried in said recess between said wall sections and having an actuator hole therein adjacent said slots;
- a valve member having a pin totally occupying said hole with opposite ends slidably movable through said slots;
- a lug integrally carried on said trigger plate ahead of said hole and said pin for engaging with said front stop shoulder to terminate movement of said trigger mechanism in a forward direction;
- and
- engagement of said pin with said rear stop shoulder terminates movement of said trigger plate in a rearward direction.
