Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Halterung eines Zielvorrichtung auf einer Handfeuerwaffe gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a device for holding a target device on a handgun according to the preamble of independent claim 1.

Zeilvorrichtungen, wie Zielfernrohre, Infrarot, Nachtsichtlaserzielgeräte, mit abnehmbarer Halterung auf Handfeuerwaffen sind bekannt. Dabei soll die Bildebene immer in demselben Abstand zum Auge angeordnet sein. Durch diesen einzuhaltenden Abstand bedingt, ist die Montage und das Ort der Halterung vorbestimmt. Demnach muss sich das Okular im Bereich der Kimme oder des dieser entsprechenden Diopters befinden. Zur Einstellung der optischen Achse der Zielvorrichtung in bezug auf die Achse des Laufes der Waffe wird berkanntlich die Zielvorrichtung auf einen Träger montiert, der auch die entsprechenden Vorrichtungen für die Einstellung und Ausrichtung trägt. Da diese Einstellung für eine bestimmte Waffe und allenfalls für einen bestimmten Schützen nur einmal während einer längeren Zeitspanne erfolgen sollte, haben die Befestigungselemente sehr strenge Bedingungen zu erfüllen. Ausserdem sollen die notwendigen Aufbauten an der Waffe auf ein Minimum reduziert werden, um dadurch jede Waffe mit oder ohne Zielvorrichtung in gleicher Weise handhaben zu können.Line devices, such as riflescopes, infrared, night vision laser aiming devices, with a detachable holder on handguns are known. The image plane should always be at the same distance from the eye. Due to this distance to be maintained, the mounting and location of the bracket is predetermined. Accordingly, the eyepiece must be in the area of the rear sight or the corresponding diopter. In order to set the optical axis of the aiming device with respect to the axis of the barrel of the weapon, it is known that the aiming device is mounted on a carrier which also carries the corresponding devices for setting and alignment. Since this setting should only be made once for a certain period of time for a specific weapon and, if need be, for a specific shooter, the fastening elements have to meet very strict conditions. In addition, the necessary structures on the weapon should be reduced to a minimum in order to be able to handle any weapon with or without a target device in the same way.

Zu den erwähnten Bedingungen an die Befestigungselemente gehören unter anderen eine Montage der Zielvorrichtung ohne Vorbereitungsarbeiten, ohne Werkzeuge, Verwendung derselben Zielvorrichtung auf verschiedenen Waffen des gleichen Typs, sichere Halterung auch bei feldmässigem Einsatz, d.h. Unlösbarkeit durch Schläge, Montierbarkeit im Feld, daher möglichst keine durch Schmutz im Betrieb und Genauigkeit behinderte Vorrichtungen an der Waffe selbst, und schliesslich niedrige Kosten für die Vorrichtungen an der Waffe selbst, damit diese seriell damit ausgerüstet werden können.The mentioned conditions for the fastening elements include, among other things, assembly of the target device without preparation work, without tools, use of the same target device on different weapons of the same type, secure mounting even when used in the field, i.e. Insolubility due to blows, mountability in the field, therefore, if possible, no devices on the weapon itself that are obstructed by dirt during operation and accuracy, and finally low costs for the devices on the weapon itself so that it can be serially equipped with it.

Gemäss der CH-A-399 959 ist eine Halterung für ein Zielfernrohr bekannt geworden. Der das Diopter tragende Halteblock ist mit dem Verschlussgehäuse starr verbunden und weist eine in Achsrichtung der Waffe verlaufende trapezförmige Auflagefläche für eine Sitzfläche eines mit dem Zielfernrohr verbundenen Trägers auf. Der Halteblock hat eine Verlängerung in Richtung gegen die Mündung der Waffe. Sowohl an diesem mündungsseitigen Ende als auch beim Diopter ist je ein quer zur Achse liegenden Bolzen angeordnet. Mündungsseitig besitzt der Träger eine den entsprechenden Bolzen untergreifende Nase und am hinteren Ende einen mit dem zweiten Bolzen zusammenwirkenden Riegel. Dieser Riegel ist in einer axialen Bohrung in Längsrichtung verschiebbar geführt und wird mit einer Schraubenfeder nach aussen, zum Untergreifen des zweiten Bolzens, gepresst. Auf dem Riegel befindet sich ein Zapfen, der in eine obere Ausnehmung im Träger hineinragt und damit die axiale Verschiebung des Riegels begrenzt. Ein quer zur Achse der Waffe angeordneter Hebel dient zur Bewegung des Riegels von aussen, um damit die Riegelspitze aus der Haltestellung unter dem Bolzen herauszubewegen.According to CH-A-399 959, a mount for a telescopic sight has become known. The holding block carrying the rear sight is rigidly connected to the breech housing and has a trapezoidal support surface running in the axial direction of the weapon for a seat surface of a carrier connected to the telescopic sight. The holding block has an extension towards the muzzle of the weapon. A bolt lying transversely to the axis is arranged both at this mouth-side end and in the diopter. On the mouth side, the carrier has a nose which engages under the corresponding bolt and at the rear end a bolt which interacts with the second bolt. This bolt is slidably guided in the axial direction in the longitudinal direction and is pressed outwards with a helical spring to reach under the second bolt. There is a pin on the bolt which projects into an upper recess in the carrier and thus limits the axial displacement of the bolt. A lever arranged transversely to the axis of the weapon serves to move the bolt from the outside in order to move the bolt tip out of the holding position under the bolt.

Zur seitlichen Führung des Trägers dient somit ein längliches trapezförmiges Bett, das in einem länglichen Halteblock gebildet ist. Dies bildet einen wesentlichen Aufbau auf der Waffe, der durch die masshaltige Bearbeitung der Flächen teuer wird und im Feld leicht beschädigt werden kann. Der Hebel ist lediglich durch Reibungskräfte gesichert und könnte sich allenfalls bei starken Schlägen lösen, um dadurch den Riegel aus der Anlage unter dem Bolzen herauszuziehen.An elongated trapezoidal bed, which is formed in an elongated holding block, thus serves to guide the carrier laterally. This forms an essential structure on the weapon, which is expensive due to the dimensional processing of the surfaces and can easily be damaged in the field. The lever is only secured by frictional forces and could only come loose in the event of strong impacts, in order to pull the bolt out of the system under the bolt.

Eine weitere Möglichkeit zur Befestigung eines Zielfernrohres auf einem Gewehr ist in der US-A-2 510 289 dargestellt. Dabei sind am Gewehr umfangreiche Haltemittel vorzusehen. Die Befestigung des ebenfalls mit aufwendigen Vorrichtungen versehenen Fernhrohres erfolgt durch eine federnde Einsteckvorrichtung mit einem Rohr, das einerseits in eine Führungsbüchse eingeschoben wird und anderseits mit einem axial federnden Bolzen in eine gegenüberliegende Führungsbüchse einsetzbar ist. Eine solche Halterung im Feld ist aber nicht gewährleistet und zudem sind die Aenderungen für die Waffe so umfangreich, dass die Waffe stark verteuert wird.A further possibility for fastening a telescopic sight on a rifle is shown in US-A-2,510,289. Extensive holding devices must be provided on the rifle. The telescope, which is also provided with complex devices, is fastened by means of a resilient plug-in device with a tube which, on the one hand, is inserted into a guide bush and, on the other hand, can be inserted into an opposite guide bush with an axially resilient bolt. Such a mount in the field is not guaranteed and the changes for the weapon are so extensive that the weapon is very expensive.

Es ist daher eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine derartige Halterung in der Weise zu verbessern, dass an der Waffe selbst keine teuren Aufbauten notwendig sind, von denen die Ausrichtgenauigkeit der Zielvorrichtung abhängt.It is therefore an object of the invention to improve such a mount in such a way that no expensive structures are required on the weapon itself, on which the alignment accuracy of the target device depends.

Erfindungsgemäss wird dies durch die Merkmale im kennzeichnenden Teil des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1 erreicht.According to the invention this is achieved by the features in the characterizing part of independent claim 1.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Seitenansicht eines auf das Verschlussgehäuse aufgesetzten Zielfernrohres mit z.T. geschnitten dargestellten Träger und Befestigungselementen,
  • Fig. 2 eine Schnittansicht des vorderen Befestigungselementes und des Trägers gemäss der Schnittlinie 11-11 in Fig. 1,

  • Fig. 5 eine schnittansicht eines variante eines Zentrierung.
An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. Show it:
  • 1 is a side view of a rifle scope placed on the breech housing with carriers and fasteners shown partly in section,
  • 2 is a sectional view of the front fastener and the carrier according to the section line 11-11 in Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 is a sectional view in a sectional plane perpendicular to the axis of the weapon according to the section line 111-111 in Fig. 2, and
  • Fig. 4 is a plan view of a locking washer.
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view of a variant of a centering.

Vom Verschlussgehäuse 1 einer Handfeuerwaffe ist nur die obere Begrenzungslinie dargestellt, weil einerseits ein solches aus der allgemeinen Waffentechnik bekannt ist, und anderseits das Verschlussgehäuse und auch die Waffe selbst keine in diese Erfindung gehörenden Merkmale aufweisen. Auf dem Verschlussgehäuse ist in üblichem Aufbau ein Halteblock 2 für ein drehbares Diopter 3, ebenfalls in bekannter Ausführung, wie aus der genannten CH-A 399 959 bekannt geworden ist, befestigt. Im Abstand gegen die Mündung der Waffe hin ist auf dem Verschlussgehäuse 1 ein keilförmiger Führungsaufsatz 4 befestigt (siehe Fig. 2). Von diesem keilförmigen Führungsaufsatz 4 konvergieren die beiden Flanken 5 und 6 gegen den Halteblock 2 hin und sind mit seitlichen Nuten 7, 8 (Fig. 3) versehen, die mit einer oberen horizontalen Fläche und einer unteren geneigten Fläche eine schwalbenschwanzförmige Nutenanordnung zeigen.Only the upper boundary line of the breech housing 1 of a handgun is shown, because on the one hand such a weapon is known from general weapon technology, and on the other hand the breech housing and the weapon itself have no features belonging to this invention. A mounting block 2 for a rotatable diopter 3, also in a known design, as is known from the aforementioned CH-A 399 959, is fastened to the closure housing in a conventional design. At a distance from the muzzle of the weapon, a wedge-shaped guide attachment 4 is placed on the breech housing 1 Stigt (see Fig. 2). From this wedge-shaped guide attachment 4, the two flanks 5 and 6 converge towards the holding block 2 and are provided with lateral grooves 7, 8 (FIG. 3) which have a dovetail-shaped groove arrangement with an upper horizontal surface and a lower inclined surface.

Im Halteblock 2 befindet sich eine axial ausgerichtete kegelförmige Vertiefung 9. Somit ist auf der Waffe selbst nur der Führungsaufsatz 4 zusätzlich angebracht und der Halteblock 2 weist die Vertiefung 9 auf. Damit sind notwendige Änderungen an der Waffe nicht umfangreich und können bei jeder Waffe seriell angebracht werden, ohne dieselbe wesentlich zu verteuern.There is an axially aligned conical recess 9 in the holding block 2. Thus, only the guide attachment 4 is additionally attached to the weapon itself and the holding block 2 has the recess 9. Necessary changes to the weapon are therefore not extensive and can be attached to any weapon in series without making it significantly more expensive.

Die Zielvorrichtung 10 ist auf einem länglichen Träger 20 abgestützt und mittels Schrauben 14, 15 am Träger 20 festgeschraubt.The target device 10 is supported on an elongated support 20 and screwed onto the support 20 by means of screws 14, 15.

Der Träger 20 besitzt vorn eine sich nach aussen erweiternde Gabel 21 (Fig. 2), deren innenseitige Flanken 22, 23 mit in die erwähnten Nuten 7, 8 eingreifenden Rippen 24, 25 versehen ist. Der Träger 20 ist auf seiner gesamten Länge mit einer Durchgangsbohrung 30 versehen. In diese Bohrung ist ein Sperrstift 31 eingesetzt, der von einer Schraubenfeder 32 umfasst ist und an seinem hinteren Ende 33 in einen Zentrierbolzen 34 eingeschraubt ist. Der Zentrierbolzen 34 hat eine aus der Bohrung 30 vorstehende Zentrierspitze 35. Mittels einer quer durchgehende vorderen Bohrung 36 und einer ebensolchen hinteren Bohrung 37 kann die Länge von Sperrstift 31 und Zentrierbolzen 34 durch die Schraubverbindung verändert werden, indem der Sperrstift 31 mittels eines Dornes (nicht dargestellt) festgehalten wird und der Zentrierbolzen 34 mittels eines Stiftes in der hinteren Bohrung 37 gedreht wird bis die korrekte toleranzabhängige Einstellung gefunden ist.The carrier 20 has at the front an outwardly widening fork 21 (FIG. 2), the inside flanks 22, 23 of which are provided with ribs 24, 25 engaging in the mentioned grooves 7, 8. The carrier 20 is provided with a through hole 30 along its entire length. A locking pin 31 is inserted into this bore, which is encompassed by a helical spring 32 and is screwed into a centering pin 34 at its rear end 33. The centering pin 34 has a centering tip 35 protruding from the bore 30. The length of the locking pin 31 and centering pin 34 can be changed by means of a transverse front bore 36 and a similar rear bore 37 by the screw connection by the locking pin 31 using a mandrel (not shown) is held and the centering pin 34 is rotated by means of a pin in the rear bore 37 until the correct tolerance-dependent setting is found.

Eine Arretierscheibe 40 mit einer Ausnehmung 41 (Fig. 4) mit einer nachfolgenden abgeschrägten Flächenpartie 42 ist mittels einer Schraube 43 im Bereich hinter der Gabel 21 drehbar gelagert. Radial an dieser Arretierscheibe 40 ist ein Hebel 44 zu deren Betätigung angeordnet.A locking disk 40 with a recess 41 (FIG. 4) with a subsequent beveled surface area 42 is rotatably mounted in the area behind the fork 21 by means of a screw 43. A lever 44 for actuating it is arranged radially on this locking disk 40.

Zum Aufsetzen einer derart ausgebildeten Zielvorrichtung 10 mit zugehörigem Träger 20 wird der Hebel 44 in Schräglage gedreht, so dass die Ausnehmung 41 auf die Bohrung 30 ausgerichtet ist. Der Sperrstift 31 kann durch einen Druck auf die Zentrierspitze 35 entgegen der Kraft der Feder 32 bewegt werden. Das heisst, wenn die Zentrierspitze 35 in die Vertiefung 9 im Halteblock 2 eingesetzt wird, kann der Träger 20 in Richtung gegen den Halteblock 2 und gegen die Kraft der Feder 32 vorschoben werden, bis die Gabel 21 mit den Führungsrippen 24, 25 in die Führungsnuten 7, 8 im Führungsblock 4 eingreifen. Danach wird der Träger 20 durch die Kraft der Feder 32 nach vorn geschoben bis die durch die Verbreiterung der Flanken, 5, 6 bewirkte Klemmhalterung zur Wirkung gelangt. Wird nun der Hebel 44 gedreht, so wird durch Auflaufen des Sperrstiftes 31 auf der schrägen Fläche 42 der mit dem Sperrstift 31 fest verbundene Zentrierbolzen 34 in die Zentrierbohrung 9 gepresst. Damit ist der Träger 20 spielfrei und mechanisch fest zwischen Vertiefung 9 und Führungsblock 4 verankert. Das Eingreifen eines federkraftbelasteten Rastbolzens 50 in entsprechende Ausnehmungen 51 sichern die Arretierscheibe 40 gegen unbeabsichtigtes Lösen.To place such a target device 10 with the associated carrier 20, the lever 44 is turned in an inclined position so that the recess 41 is aligned with the bore 30. The locking pin 31 can be moved by pressing the centering tip 35 against the force of the spring 32. That is, when the centering tip 35 is inserted into the recess 9 in the holding block 2, the carrier 20 can be advanced in the direction against the holding block 2 and against the force of the spring 32 until the fork 21 with the guide ribs 24, 25 into the guide grooves 7, 8 engage in the guide block 4. Thereafter, the carrier 20 is pushed forward by the force of the spring 32 until the clamping bracket caused by the widening of the flanks 5, 6 comes into effect. If the lever 44 is now rotated, the centering pin 34, which is fixedly connected to the blocking pin 31, is pressed into the centering bore 9 by the locking pin 31 running onto the inclined surface 42. The carrier 20 is thus anchored free of play and mechanically firmly between the recess 9 and the guide block 4. The engagement of a locking bolt 50 loaded with spring force in corresponding recesses 51 secure the locking disk 40 against unintentional loosening.

Die eingangs erwähnten Aufgaben einer Befestigungsvorrichtung werden demnach durch diese Vorrichtung vollständig erfüllt, indem die zusätzlichen Vorrichtungen an der Waffe auf ein Minimum beschränkt sind, die ausserdem sehr billig sind und mit dem Träger 20 zusammen eine genaue und wiederholbare Ausrrichtung der Zielvorrichtung erlaubt. Auch bei wiederholter Demontage und Wiedermontage auf derselben Waffe ist ein Nachjustieren der Zielvorrichtung, im Gegensatz zu anderen bekannten Befestigungsvorrichtungen, nicht erforderlich.The above-mentioned tasks of a fastening device are therefore completely fulfilled by this device in that the additional devices on the weapon are kept to a minimum, which are also very cheap and, together with the carrier 20, allow the target device to be aligned precisely and repeatably. Even with repeated disassembly and reassembly on the same weapon, readjustment of the aiming device, in contrast to other known fastening devices, is not necessary.

Eine Variante ist in Fig. 5 dargestellt. Dabei ist der Zentrierbolzen 34 mit einer Vertiefung 35' und anstelle der Vertiefung 9 im Halteblock 2 befindet sich dort ein Zentrierkegel 9'. Die Kegelspitzen 9' oder 35 können mit Kegel -oder Kugelförmige Kuppe ausgebildet sein.A variant is shown in FIG. 5. Here, the centering pin 34 has a recess 35 'and instead of the recess 9 in the holding block 2 there is a centering cone 9'. The cone tips 9 'or 35 can be designed with a conical or spherical tip.
