Auxiliary device for destroying wire obstacles

The invention relates to one of the muzzle of a rifle associated auxiliary device for destroying wire obstacles. So far, wire cutters or cutting pliers have primarily been used to destroy wire obstacles used, their use in the war for the shooter very cumbersome and above all dangerous is because he has to get completely out of cover to do this. In addition, these tools are too heavy and unwieldy, so that. they normally dated Protect not carried, but only with certain Units are kept in stock,

Wire cutting devices in connection with a bayonet attached to the rifle have also been proposed been. Working with such devices is no less cumbersome and for the shooter dangerous, and considerable force is required to operate the device.

In recent times, wire obstacles have often been used with larger wire cross-sections and harder steel grades than previously used, so that a destruction with the known devices is further difficult or impossible will.

The invention is based on the idea of the wire obstacle to destroy by means of a rifle bullet and it is her task to find a suitable one To create auxiliary device. The auxiliary device should also be of the simplest possible construction and comparatively low weight and above

iiinfaciier way to be attached to your rifle

The inventive solution to the problem is one of the gun muzzle Associated auxiliary device, which is characterized by extending forward in front of the rifle muzzle, a forward opening angle forming guide surfaces, such that when the rifle is moved in the direction on the wire obstacle this comes to lie across in front of the rifle muzzle and when firing a cartridge from the Projectile is destroyed. Advantageously, at the apex of the angle formed by the guide surfaces, a transverse to Centering groove running through the IP mouth is provided. The wire obstacle slides along the guide surfaces into the centering groove, whereby the security of destruction is increased.

The guide surfaces are expediently provided on centering arms, which are essentially diametrically opposite one another sleeve-shaped support body are arranged. One Such a device can be easily attached to the muzzle of the rifle or to one placed thereon Attach fire damper. In the latter case, it is advantageous in the sleeve wall in the area of the side Provide appropriate openings for the outlet openings of the fire damper so as not to prevent the fire damper from working to affect.

In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the device can also be designed as a fire damper be.

Furthermore, the invention can also advantageously be used in conjunction with a stabbing weapon that can be slipped onto the rifle (Side gun) can be realized. The side gun is mostly by means of one at the rear end of his

Handle provided bolt coupled to the weapon j while a sleeve-like ring is provided at the front end of the handle, which the gun muzzle or the Includes fire damper and forms a support bearing for the side gun.

In the drawing are some exemplary embodiments of the Invention shown in two views, and although show:

1 shows a device which can be screwed onto the muzzle of the rifle and 2;

Fig. 3 is an attachable to a fire damper, and k apparatus;

FIG. 5 shows a device which is designed as a fire damper and 6 at the same time; FIG.

7 shows a device in connection with an attachable bayonet.

The device shown in Figures 1 and 2 consists of an essentially hound-shaped support body 2 screwed onto the muzzle of a rifle i, on which - diametrically opposite - two centering arms 3 extending forward in front of the rifle muzzle are arranged. On these centering arms, guide surfaces ha and kin are provided, which form an angle opening towards the front. When the rifle is moved in the direction of the wire obstacle to be destroyed, it slides along the guide surfaces and is in this way guided transversely in front of the barrel muzzle, so that it is destroyed by the projectile when a cartridge is fired. The central position of the wire obstacle in front of the muzzle is favored by a centering groove 5 provided at the apex of the angle formed by the guide surfaces. "

The device of FIGS. 3 and 4 is on a Rifle muzzle screwed on fire damper 6 of known design can be attached. It consists essentially of one thing sleeve-shaped support body 7, which at his front, over the rifle muzzle protruding end an angular transverse slot 8 with the guide surfaces 4a and 4b. The device can be locked on the fire damper by means of a bayonet-like holder 9. The fire damper has gas outlet slots on its circumference in a known manner. To the effect of the Fire damper not to affect, are in the wall of the support body 7, openings 10 corresponding to the gas outlet slots are provided.

The device according to FIGS. 5 and 6 is simultaneous than a fire damper that can be screwed onto the muzzle of a rifle 11 formed a known basic shape, which at its front end with the guide surfaces described 4a and 4b is provided. The rear part of the device is screwed onto the muzzle of the rifle. The over the rifle muzzle protruding part has a forwardly widening conical bore and in the sleeve-shaped Wall gas outlet slots 12 are provided.

The wall of the essentially sleeve-shaped fire damper goes at its front end into two forward extending, opposing centering arms 13, on which the guide surfaces 4a and 4b are provided.

FIG. 7 shows a device in connection with a side gun which can be slipped onto a rifle and consists of Blade 14 and handle 15. The device is at the front end of the handle instead of a conventional retaining ring arranged, the mouth or, the fire damper uefasst and forms a support bearing for the side gun.

The device consists of a substantially sleeve-shaped body ± 6, which is attached to the side gun with a ring 17 provided on its circumference. By arranging a transverse slot 8 through the part of the sleeve wall projecting forward beyond the mouth, centering arms with the guide surfaces ka and * tb are formed on this.

The devices according to the invention can be very expediently produce as a light metal casting, which is particularly advantageous both on the weight and affects manufacturing.
