Model of an 18-Pounder Carronade on a Slide, Model of a carronade on sliding carriage, incomplete. The carronade has a caliber of cm. The barrel has a slot elevation with a visor, a visor on the middle decorative band and a front band, a refraction ring and a feather screw through the grape. The upper carriage has a light trapezoidal body with brass fittings and rings, the front and back are rounded. Against the back the box in brass fitting, on top a brass plate to support the elving screw and at the front the ears through which the tapas runs, the vertebral bolt is missing. The lower carriage consists of a wooden frame with brass fittings, which tapers slightly forward and is rounded off at the front, Slightly to the rear, a securing plate is fitted on the underside, with which the carriage is secured against the ship's wall in the longitudinal direction. In this part the hole for the spindle bolt is made in the gate threshold, the gate threshold is missing. The frame rests on two bobbins, one in the middle and one at the rear, which is composed of two vertical corner posts with horizontal blocks in between. The lower two blocks include two wooden marbles that protrude below, these blocks can be moved vertically with two keys, so that in the lower position the rear of the carriage comes to rest on the marbles and is therefore easily movable. In the upper position, the blocks are secured by a hook. The middle block has two wheels at the bottom and can also be lowered so that the carriage rests on it. Between the beams in the longitudinal direction two spring blades are arranged, which narrow towards the rear to deplete the recule by clamping the vertebral bolt between them. A box is fitted at the rear of the frame., anonymous, Netherlands, 1785 - 1820, wood (plant material), brass (alloy), h cm × w 34 cm × d cm × h 16 cm w cm × d 32 cm
