ABSTRACT:
A hand lever for operating the wedge-type breechblock of an artillery gun is disclosed. A breech operating shaft is placed near the breech ring of the gun and connected to the breechblock and is actuated through a drive by the hand lever. The drive couples shaft and hand lever upon actuation of the lever and otherwise automatically releases the coupling between shaft and hand lever resulting in dropping of the hand lever upon discontinuance of the actuation.
