  • Device for storing and transporting firearm disassembly tools within hand grip
    Patent number: 6389729
    Abstract: A device to provide storage and transportation of a flat pin ejector removal tool (28) and a round pin removal tool (30) within a frame cavity (12) of a firearm. Consisting of a tool body (10) shaped to fit within the frame cavity, and having the tools affixed to it. The tool body has a plunger journal hole (14) containing a spring (22) that underlies a plunger (24). These are held captive by a retention clip (26) pressed into a retention clip recess (16). This arrangement allows the plunger to be manually urged to its proximal position during insertion of the device into the frame cavity. The spring then urges the plunger to its distal position. Thus, the plunger projects out of the tool body to sufficiently communicate with a lanyard hole (13) retaining the device within the frame cavity. Manually urging the plunger to its proximal position facilitates removal.

  • Method for synchronizing code machines which are operated within the framework of a block transmission network
    Patent number: 4366573
    Abstract: A method for synchronizing code machines, operated within a block network, provides that a connection completion block be transmitted and a connection confirmation block be received and stored by a code machine, after which the code machines are phased in. The transmitting code machine then causes transmission of the connection confirmation block to its own data terminal equipment. After transmission of the last data block, a connection release block is recognized by the code machine and the machines are phased out.
