ABSTRACT:
An adaptor for use with a bomb dispenser of the type having a pair of pivoting bomb-retaining arms adapts the dispenser to accommodate a smaller bomb, such as a small practice bomb. The adaptor, when mounted has a bracket secured to each arm of the dispenser. An elongate support bar is carried by the bracket and engages the underside of a bomb. A stabilizing lever mounted on the bracket pivots towards the support bar to engage the bomb and press it against the bar. The position of the lever is adjustable relative to the support. The use of the adaptor eliminates the need for other stabilizing structures such as sway braces, that can interfere with the smaller bombs.
