Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
307 words
A nightstick comprising an elongate cylindrical body portion having at one end a handle and adjacent the other end an internal cylindrical chamber defined by a sleevelike wall, said chamber extending inwardly from said end and being provided with a cap comprising a cylindrical portion having a cylindrical outer surface forming a continuation of the cylindrical outer surface of the body portion and a cylindrical plug portion which fits into the open end of the chamber, said plug portion containing a T-shaped recess therein and said wall having a hole through it into which is threaded a retaining pin with its inner end engaged within the head of the T-shaped slot, said cap being rotatable to align the stem of the T-shaped slot with the pin to enable removing the cap, and said cap fUrther containing a passage, a portion of which is located at the center thereof and in communication with the chamber, and a portion of which is radially disposed and extends to the sidewall of the chamber and said sidewall having a hole through it in alignment with the radial passage in which there is fixed a nozzle plug such that the nozzle passage is in communication with the passage in the cap, said nozzle passage being close to the distal end of the nightstick, said chamber being adapted to receive an aerosol container provided with a delivery tube and said portion of the passage in communication with the chamber containing an enlarged pocket into which the delivery tube is adapted to fit, and means comprising a lever supported diametrically of the body portion in a position to provide support for the base of the container, said lever being operable to effect relative movement of the container with respect to its delivery tube to effect discharge from the container through said passage and nozzle.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
307 words
A nightstick comprising an elongate cylindrical body portion having at one end a handle and adjacent the other end an internal cylindrical chamber defined by a sleevelike wall, said chamber extending inwardly from said end and being provided with a cap comprising a cylindrical portion having a cylindrical outer surface forming a continuation of the cylindrical outer surface of the body portion and a cylindrical plug portion which fits into the open end of the chamber, said plug portion containing a T-shaped recess therein and said wall having a hole through it into which is threaded a retaining pin with its inner end engaged within the head of the T-shaped slot, said cap being rotatable to align the stem of the T-shaped slot with the pin to enable removing the cap, and said cap fUrther containing a passage, a portion of which is located at the center thereof and in communication with the chamber, and a portion of which is radially disposed and extends to the sidewall of the chamber and said sidewall having a hole through it in alignment with the radial passage in which there is fixed a nozzle plug such that the nozzle passage is in communication with the passage in the cap, said nozzle passage being close to the distal end of the nightstick, said chamber being adapted to receive an aerosol container provided with a delivery tube and said portion of the passage in communication with the chamber containing an enlarged pocket into which the delivery tube is adapted to fit, and means comprising a lever supported diametrically of the body portion in a position to provide support for the base of the container, said lever being operable to effect relative movement of the container with respect to its delivery tube to effect discharge from the container through said passage and nozzle.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
76 words
A nightstick according to claim 1, wherein a pin supports the lever in the chamber adjacent the base of the container with one end in the wall and the other end projecting through the wall, and means on the lever for supporting the base of the container with its delivery tube within the socket and operable by movement of the lever to effect axial movement of the container within the chamber relative to the delivery tube.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
62 words
A nightstick according to claim 1, wherein the lever is located close to the handle, a plug is mounted in the chamber between the handle and the base of the container containing an axially and centrally located hole and a rod is mounted in said hole with one end engaged with the lever and the other with the base of the container.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
223 words
A nightstick comprising an elongate cylindrical body portion having at one end a handle and at the other end an internal, axially disposed cylindrical chamber, said handle and body portion of the club being solid, a nozzle element secured in the side of the body portion in communication with the interior of the chamber, a pluglike cap adapted to be rotatably mounted in the open end of the chamber, said pluglike cap containing a passage, a portion of which is in communication with the chamber and another portion of which is located in a position such that it is adapted to be aligned with the nozzle element by rotation of the cap in one direction, and to be moved away from said nozzle element by rotation in the opposite direction, means for supporting an aerosol container in the chamber provided with a delivery tube with its delivery tube in communication with that portion of the passage in the plug which is in communication with the chamber, and means supported adjacent the base of the container operable to effect movement of the latter relative to the delivery tube such as to effect release of the content of the container, said cap when rotated away from said nozzle element preventing accidental ejection of the contents of the container should the last-named means be inadvertently actuated.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
223 words
A nightstick comprising an elongate cylindrical body portion having at one end a handle and at the other end an internal, axially disposed cylindrical chamber, said handle and body portion of the club being solid, a nozzle element secured in the side of the body portion in communication with the interior of the chamber, a pluglike cap adapted to be rotatably mounted in the open end of the chamber, said pluglike cap containing a passage, a portion of which is in communication with the chamber and another portion of which is located in a position such that it is adapted to be aligned with the nozzle element by rotation of the cap in one direction, and to be moved away from said nozzle element by rotation in the opposite direction, means for supporting an aerosol container in the chamber provided with a delivery tube with its delivery tube in communication with that portion of the passage in the plug which is in communication with the chamber, and means supported adjacent the base of the container operable to effect movement of the latter relative to the delivery tube such as to effect release of the content of the container, said cap when rotated away from said nozzle element preventing accidental ejection of the contents of the container should the last-named means be inadvertently actuated.
