The plug is extended withan arm, G, by which the lock-bolt is operated. The mechanism operates as follows: The fence is in theplane of an eccentric groove or ward cut on the back of theshell, as shown by thefigure. This eccentricgroove is so located withreference to the centre ofrotation of the cylinderthat when the plug isturned, the longer armof the fence is forced toone side, the amount ofeccentricity being suffi-cient to firmly wedge andhold the plug, in case thefence should not be freeto move laterally.
