Ammunition Pusher Hoist AD/ G.4.
Original rare Vintage lithographic poster of the technical cross
sections /TS .Colour lithographs with original water colour
enhancement, c 1938/42 of the Ammunition Pusher Hoist AD/ G.4. sheet
size 620 x 930 mm all perfect no marks , foxing defects etc. IInfo:= On
board ship the shell was moved upwards towards the gunhouse by a pusher
hoist that worked on the ratchet principle. As soon as all shells had
been transferred to their respective hoists, the bogies were unlocked
and traversed back to the nearest convenient pivoting tray; and so the
process went on until the three hoists were full. By this time, they
held a vertical column of four shells each (the highest shells having
reached the gunhouse) and there were thus twelve tons of shell in the
hoist trunks.
