摘要: 11,774. Bacon, R. H. S., and Duncan, F. May 12. Naval mountings.-Relates to apparatus for maintaining the position of a gun when it is correctly elevated trained, consists in employment mechanism, automatic or non-automatic, conjunction with gyroscopic angularvelocity meters, imparting angular velocities vertical horizontal planes equal magnitude but opposite direction those platform due rolling pitching ship. The elevationcontrol shown Fig. 1, comprises velocity meter d, pointer d which connected by rod c control-valve variable-speed hydraulic elevating motor press c. gun-slide is, therefore, rotated about trunnions , manner stated above, correct motion plane. training-motor, may be kind described Specification 7871/10, controlled similar manner. control valve through servomotor, supplementary hand-operated employed correcting irregularities speed rotation. instrument mounted upon slide a. For non-automatic working, valves motors are hand-levers accordance indications gyroscope instruments. Electric training gears similarly controlled.
