Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abzugsvorrichtung für automatische Handfeuerwaffen mit einem Fanghebel, der als doppelarmiger Schwenkhebel ausgebildet ist, dessen hinterer Hebelarm mit einem Schieber zusammenwirkt, wobei der Schieber mit dem Abzug gekuppelt ist und der Fanghebel den nach Schußabgabe gegen die Kraft einer Verschlußfeder rücklaufenden Verschluß bei freigegebenem Abzug an einer Nase in hinterer Stellung festhält.The invention relates to a trigger device for automatic handguns with a catch lever, which is designed as a double-armed pivot lever, the rear lever arm cooperates with a slide, the slide is coupled to the trigger and the catch lever the release after the shot against the force of a breech spring breech with released Holding the trigger on a nose in the rear position.

Eine derartige Handfeuerwaffe ist aus der DE-C 421 247 bekannt geworden, bei der am vorderen Ende des doppelarmigen Schwenkhebles eine Nase angeordnet ist, die in eine Nase des Verschlusses eingreifen kann und diesen festhält. Beide Hebelarme des Schwenkhebels sind federbelastet, wobei eine stärkere Feder die Nase des Schwenkhebels gegen den Verschluß drückt. Nachteilig bei dieser Konstruktion ist, daß bei starkem Verschleiß die Nase des Schwenkhebels lediglich durch Überwindung der Federkraft der stärkeren Feder übersprungen und dadurch ungewollt ein Schuß ausgelöst werden kann. Es ist auch nicht mit Sicherheit verhindert, daß die starken Stoßbelastungen ausgesetzten Teile beim Hin- und Hergehen des Verschlusses deformiert werden, was ebenfalls zu einer ungewollten Schußauslösung führen kann.Such a handgun has become known from DE-C 421 247, in which a nose is arranged at the front end of the double-arm pivoting lever, which can engage in a nose of the breech and holds it in place. Both lever arms of the pivot lever are spring-loaded, with a stronger spring pressing the nose of the pivot lever against the lock. The disadvantage of this construction is that, in the event of heavy wear, the nose of the pivot lever can only be skipped by overcoming the spring force of the stronger spring and a shot can be triggered unintentionally. It is also not prevented with certainty that the parts exposed to high shock loads are deformed when the breech goes back and forth, which can also lead to an unwanted firing of the shot.

Aus der GB-A 573 029 ist eine automatische Handfeuerwaffe bekannt geworden, bei der ein dreiarmiger Schwenkhebel vorgesehen ist, dessen einer hinterer Arm anschlagbegrenzt von einer Feder gegen den Lauf gedrückt, dessen zweiter hinterer Arm schwenkbar mit einem mit dem Abzug zusammenwirkenden Schieber verbunden und dessen vorderer Arm mittels einer weiteren Feder gegen den Schieber abgestützt ist. Der dreiarmige Schwenkhebel besitzt eine Nase, die mit einer Nase am Verschluß zusammenwirkt. Auch bei dieser Konstruktion ist nachteilig, daß begünstigt durch die Schrägstellung der Nase ein Überspringen durch den Verschluß möglich ist, wobei der Schwenkhebel gegen die Kraft der an seinem einen hinteren Arm angreifenden Feder im Uhrzeigersinn verschwenkt wird. Eine Deformierung der starken Stoßbelastungen ausgesetzten Teile ist auch hier nicht ausgeschlossen, was zu einer ungewollten Schußauslösung führen kann.From GB-A 573 029 an automatic handgun has become known in which a three-armed swivel lever is provided, one rear arm of which is pressed against the barrel by a spring, the second rear arm of which is pivotally connected to a slide interacting with the trigger, and its front arm is supported by another spring against the slide. The three-armed swivel lever has a nose that interacts with a nose on the lock. This construction is also disadvantageous in that, due to the inclination of the nose, it is possible to jump through the closure, the pivoting lever being pivoted clockwise against the force of the spring engaging its rear arm. A deformation of the parts exposed to strong shock loads is also not excluded here, which can lead to an unwanted firing of the shot.

Eine Abzugsvorrichtung für Handfeuerwaffen mit einem Fanghebel, der den nach Schußabgabe gegen Federkraft rücklaufenden Verschluß bei freigegebenem Abzug an einer Nase in hinterer Stellung festhält, hat den Vorteil, daß bei jeder Unterbrechung einer Schußfolge das Patronenlager des Laufes leer bleibt, sich darin also keine Patrone befindet und daher auch keine Gefahr besteht, daß nach vorangegangener längerer Schußfolge eine Selbstentzündung der Patrone durch Überhitzung des Laufes stattfinden kann. Dabei unterliegt der Fanghebel aber einer sehr hohen Belastung, weil er den vorlaufenden Verschluß mit seiner hohen Bewegungsenergie plötzlich anhalten muß. Diese hohen Belastungen können elastische Deformationen nicht nur des Fanghebels, sondern auch der Führungsteile für den Verschluß mit sich bringen, wodurch der vorbestimmte Übergriff des Fanghebels über die am Verschluß vorgesehene Nase so verringert werden kann, daß die Sicherheit des Festhaltens des vorlaufenden Verschlusses nicht mehr gewährleistet ist. Aus diesen Gründen sind bisher der Fanghebel und die sonstigen zugehörigen Teile der Abzugsvorrichtung bzw. der Verschlußführung aus hochfesten Materialien, insbesondere gehärtetem Stahl, hergestellt, was nicht nur das Waffengewicht vergrößert, sondern auch den technischen Aufwand bei der Herstellung dieser Teile erhöht.A trigger device for handguns with a catch lever, which holds the breech on the nose when the trigger is fired against spring force when the trigger is released, has the advantage that the cartridge chamber of the barrel remains empty with every interruption of a firing sequence, i.e. there is no cartridge in it and therefore there is also no danger that after a prolonged firing sequence, the cartridge can self-ignite due to overheating of the barrel. The catch lever is subject to a very high load because it suddenly has to stop the forward closure with its high kinetic energy. These high loads can bring about elastic deformations not only of the catch lever, but also of the guide parts for the closure, as a result of which the predetermined engagement of the catch lever via the nose provided on the closure can be reduced in such a way that the security of holding the leading closure no longer ensures is. For these reasons, the catch lever and the other associated parts of the trigger device or the breech guide are made of high-strength materials, in particular hardened steel, which not only increases the weight of the weapon, but also increases the technical outlay in the production of these parts.

Demnach liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Mängel zu beseitigen und die eingangs geschilderte Abzugsvorrichtung mit einfachen Mitteln so zu verbessern, daß trotz der gegebenenfalls auftretenden Verformungen keine Verringerung des Übergriffs von Fanghebel und Verschlußnase auftritt, also volle Sicherheit vorhanden ist und eine günstige Kraftverteilung erreicht wird, so daß die Fangelemente sogar aus Kunststoff hergestellt werden können.Accordingly, the object of the invention is to eliminate these deficiencies and to improve the trigger device described at the outset with simple means so that, despite the deformations which may occur, there is no reduction in the overlap of the catch lever and locking lug, that is to say there is full security and a favorable force distribution is achieved is so that the catch elements can even be made of plastic.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der vordere Hebelarm des Fanghebels eine mit der Nase des Verschlusses zusammenwirkende Fangklinke trägt, die ebenfalls als doppelarmiger Schwenkhebel ausgebildet ist, wobei der vordere Hebelarm (7) der Fangklinke (6) sich gegen die Kraft der Verschlußfeder (13) an einem gefederten, am Gehäuse (1) untergebrachten Widerlager (8) abstützt und die Fangklinke derart angeordnet ist, daß bei plötzlich auftretener Belastung die Fangklinke eine Schwenkbewegung in Wirkungsrichtung der Verschlußfeder und damit im Sinne einer Vergrößerung des Übergriffes der Nase des Verschlusses mittels einer mit dieser Nase zusammenwirkenden Nase an der Fangklinke ausführt, derart, daß der notwendige Übergriff trotz einer etwaigen elastischen Deformation der Fangelemente (Fangklinke und Fanghebel) erhalten bleibt.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the front lever arm of the catch lever carries a catch pawl which interacts with the nose of the closure and which is also designed as a double-arm pivot lever, the front lever arm (7) of the catch pawl (6) opposing the force of the lock spring ( 13) is supported on a spring-loaded abutment (8) housed on the housing (1) and the catch pawl is arranged in such a way that when a load suddenly occurs, the catch pawl pivots in the direction of action of the locking spring and thus in the sense of increasing the overlap of the nose of the lock executes a nose cooperating with this nose on the catch pawl in such a way that the necessary overlap is retained despite any elastic deformation of the catch elements (catch pawl and catch lever).

Bei plötzlich auftretender Belastung führt die Fangklinke durch das gefederte Widerlager eine Schwenkbewegung in Wirkungsrichtung der Verschlußfeder und damit im Sinne einer Vergrößerung des Übergriffs der Nase am Verschluß aus, so daß der notwendige Übergriff trotz einer etwaigen elastischen Deformation des Fanghebels erhalten bleibt und die Gefahr einer ungewollten Schußabgabe vermieden ist. Dabei wirkt das gefederte Widerlager gewissermaßen als Stoßdämpfer für das Anhalten des Verschlusses. Die zwischen dem die Fangklinke bildenden Schwenkhebel und dem Fanghebel eingesetzte Druckfeder dient in Wirkverbindung mit der federnden Abstützung am Widerlager als Rückholfeder, um den Fanghebel nach erfolgter Schußauslösung in seine Ausgangsstellung zurückzubringen, in der er von einem mit dem Abzug verbundenen Schieber od. dgl. gehalten wird.In the event of a sudden load, the catch catch pivots through the spring-loaded abutment in the direction of action of the locking spring and thus in the sense of an increase in the overlap of the nose on the lock, so that the necessary overlap is retained despite any elastic deformation of the locking lever and the risk of unwanted Gunshot is avoided. The spring-loaded abutment acts as a kind of shock absorber for stopping the lock. The compression spring inserted between the swivel lever forming the catch pawl and the catch lever serves in operative connection with the resilient support on the abutment as a return spring in order to return the catch lever to its starting position after the firing of the shot, in which it is held by a slide connected to the trigger or the like becomes.

Die Zeichnung zeigt als Ausführungsbeispiel die erfindungswesentlichen Teile einer Abzugsvorrichtung für ein automatisches Gewehr im Teilschnitt und vereinfachter Darstellung.The drawing shows an embodiment of the parts of a trigger device for an automatic rifle essential to the invention in partial section and simplified representation.

Die Abzugsvorrichtung weist ein Gehäuse 1 auf, in dem ein Schieber 2, der über eine Abzugstange 3 mit dem durch den Finger des Schützen betätigbaren Abzug gekuppelt ist, vor- und rückschiebbar gelagert ist. Ferner ist im Gehäuse 1 ein Fanghebel 4 um die Achse 5 schwenkbar angeordnet, der an seinem Vorderende eine Fangklinke 6 trägt. Die Fangklinke 6 ist als doppelarmiger Schwenkhebel ausgebildet, dessen vorderer Arm 7 an einem gefederten Widerlager 8 abgestützt ist. Zwischen dem hinteren Hebelarm 9 der Fanglinke 6 und dem Fanghebel 4 ist eine spreizende Druckfeder 10 eingesetzt. Mit 11 sind Längsführungen für den Verschluß 12 bezeichnet, der durch eine starke Verschlußfeder 13 belastet ist und an seiner Unterseite eine mit der Fangklinke 6 zusammenwirkende Nase 14 trägt.The trigger device has a housing 1, in which a slide 2, which can be actuated via a trigger rod 3 by the shooter's finger ren trigger is coupled, is pushed forward and retractable. Furthermore, a catch lever 4 is arranged in the housing 1 so as to be pivotable about the axis 5 and carries a catch pawl 6 at its front end. The catch pawl 6 is designed as a double-armed pivot lever, the front arm 7 of which is supported on a sprung abutment 8. A spreading compression spring 10 is inserted between the rear lever arm 9 of the catch link 6 and the catch lever 4. With 11 longitudinal guides for the closure 12 are designated, which is loaded by a strong locking spring 13 and carries on its underside a cooperating with the catch 6 nose 14.

In der dargestellten Stellung wird der Verschluß 12 gegen die Kraft der Verschlußfeder 13 durch die Fangklinke 6 festgehalten, wobei sich keine Patrone im (nicht dargestellten) Patronenlager befindet. Der Fanghebel 4 wird durch den ihn übergreifenden Steg 15 des Schiebers 2 an einer Schwenkbewegung gehindert. Wird der Abzug betätigt, also über die Abzugstange 3 der Schieber 2 nach hinten bewegt, so kommt das Hinterende des Fanghebels 4 frei und kann unter dem Druck der über die Nase 14 auf die Fangklinke 6 wirkende Verschlußfeder aufwärtsschwenken, so daß der Verschluß 12 vorschnellen, dabei eine Patrone aus dem (ebenfalls nicht dargestellten) Magazin mitnehmen und in das Patronenlager einführen kann, wonach der Schuß in üblicher Weise abgegeben und der Verschluß 12 gegen die Kraft der Verschlußfeder 13 zurückbewegt wird. Dabei wird mit Hilfe der spreizenden Druckfeder 10 der Hinterteil des Fanghebels 4 soweit abwärtsgeschwenkt, daß bei freigegebenem Abzug der Steg 15 dieses Hinterende wieder übergreifen kann. Beim neuerlichen Vorlauf des Verschlusses 12 stößt seine Nase 14 an der Fangklinke 6 an, wobei sich zufolge der federnden Abstützung des Hebelarmes 7 am Widerlager 8 eine gewisse Schwenkbewegung der Fangklinke 6 im Gegenuhrzeigersinn ergibt, so daß der Übergriff der Fangklinke 6 über die Nase 14 eher vergrößert als durch elastische Deformation der Fangelemente verkleinert wird.In the position shown, the breech 12 is held against the force of the breech spring 13 by the catch pawl 6, there being no cartridge in the cartridge chamber (not shown). The catch lever 4 is prevented from pivoting by the web 15 of the slide 2 which engages over it. If the trigger is actuated, that is to say the slide 2 is moved backwards via the trigger rod 3, the rear end of the catch lever 4 is released and can pivot upwards under the pressure of the locking spring acting on the catch pawl 6 via the nose 14, so that the lock 12 flaps forward, take a cartridge from the magazine (also not shown) and insert it into the cartridge chamber, after which the shot is fired in the usual way and the breech 12 is moved back against the force of the breech spring 13. With the help of the spreading compression spring 10, the rear part of the catch lever 4 is pivoted downwards so far that, when the trigger 15 is released, the web 15 can reach over this rear end again. When the closure 12 is advanced again, its nose 14 abuts the catch 6, whereby due to the resilient support of the lever arm 7 on the abutment 8 there is a certain pivoting movement of the catch 6 counterclockwise, so that the catch 6 engages over the nose 14 rather is enlarged than is reduced by elastic deformation of the catch elements.
