Abstract

1. Device for feeding ammunition (6, 7) to an automatic weapon (1) that pivots about a horizontal axis (9) in a gun mount of an armoured vehicle or a like weapon carrier, especially to a machine cannon for a cartridge caliber of up to 40 mm, having a feed shaft (2, 3) leading from a cartridge magazine (4, 5) to the weapon, wherein the magazine (4, 5), feed shaft and weapon pivot together with the gun mount about the gun mount's vertical axis, characterized by an endless feed belt (15, 16) made from flexible-elastic material turning from the magazine (4, 5) through the feed shaft (2, 3) to the breechblock (12) and back again to the magazine (4, 5), which feed belt in its entirety can be driven intermittently or continually by a power source (7) being independent from the weapon (1), said feed belt having a plurality of flexible-elastic cartridge holders (18, 19) along one side thereof, a first turn-around disposed in the area of the magazine (4, 5) and a second turn-around (20, 21) near the breechblock (12), by which turn-arounds the cartridge holders (18, 19) can be bent open in a reversible manner so that the cartridge (6a, 7a) abutting against holding lips (22, 23) or the like being disposed in front of the breechblock (12) can be introduced into the chamber of the weapon (1) by the driver (24) of the breechblock (12).
