Definitions

  • the invention relates to a belt feeder of an automatic gas-pressure gun barrel weapon, in particular a machine gun, with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a belt feeder and its drive can be seen, for example, from DE-OS 28 09 505 as known.
  • this known belt feeder it can happen that the feed shaft stars of the feed shaft clamp the cartridge after the transport of the belt feeder has ended and thereby hinder their discharge through the closure.
  • the cartridge case can be damaged when it is discharged, and there is a higher load on the feed shaft stars and, associated with this, the cadence may drop.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to avoid the disadvantages mentioned.
  • the feed shaft stars should no longer damage the cartridge case after the end of the respective transport, there should be no increased stress on the feed shaft stars and a cadence drop should be avoided.
  • the means used to prevent these disadvantages should not impede the loading and unloading of the weapon and the removal and installation of the feed shafts. Furthermore, the means should be usable in belt feeders of any different construction.
  • a feed brake is created for the feed shaft, which jerkily limits the rotation of the respective feed shaft at the end of the feed of the belt by engaging the pawl. This means that the cartridges can no longer be jammed.
  • the arrangement of the drive pinion at the front end of each feed shaft ensures easy installation and removal of the feed shafts.
  • a particularly favorable structural design results from the fact that the pawls are two-armed, spring-sided. are loaded levers and that they are mounted on a common shaft between the feed shafts. Shorter L age rwellen for the pawls result when each pawl is mounted on a separate, juxtaposed between the Zu Industrieswellen bearing shaft.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show, surrounded by a housing 12, on the right the feed shaft 5 with ratchet wheel 6 and drive pinion 1, which can be driven to the right, and on the left the ratchet wheel 6 lying a little further back, likewise in one piece with the feed shaft 5 and in front of it the drive pinion 1, which can be driven to the left.
  • Each control cam 2 on the drive pinion 1 is assigned a control pin 3 and a pawl 4.
  • the pawls 4 are rotatably mounted on the fixed bearing shaft 8.
  • Figure 2 shows that the control pin 3 is held in a bore 13 of a housing cover 9.
  • Figure 3 shows the bearing of the shaft 8, which carries the pawls 4 one behind the other, in the housing cover 9, which is covered at the rear by an end plate 10. So that the pawls can be mounted on a bearing shaft 8 one behind the other, the ratchet wheels are offset in the axial direction on the feed shafts.
