Abstract

1. A projectile launcher with two parallel barrels mounted tiltably with respect to the stock, in which said barrels (1) are carried by a table (3) mounted pivotally at one end of a beam (6), characterized in that the other end of this beam is carried by a tilt block (4) fixed to the stock and in that said table (3) is of a shape such that when the launcher is in the firing position the table (3) covers said beam (6) thus at least partially concealing the latter.

Description

La présente invention concerne un lanceur double de projectiles à canons basculants, notamment à canons de gros calibre de 40 à 50 mm.The present invention relates to a double launcher of projectiles with tilting cannons, in particular with large caliber cannons from 40 to 50 mm.

Le lanceur de projectiles conforme à l'invention est destiné, dans ses différentes versions, à trois domaines différents d'utilisation:

  • à titre d'arme de défense rapprochée à domicile, d'un grand effet dissuasif, mais sans risque de tuer ou de blesser grièvement l'agresseur;
  • comme arme anti-émeutes, d'une grande efficacité pour le tir de balles en matière souple de fort diamètre ou de conteneurs de liquides colorants ou lacrymogène, ne nécessitant pas l'emploi d'explosif pour leur mise en oeuvre et ne risquant pas de blesser ou de tuer les personnes visées;
  • sous forme d'arme alourdie à usage militaire, enfin, en vue du tir de petits obus explosifs fusants, fumignes ou anti-chars.
The projectile launcher according to the invention is intended, in its different versions, for three different fields of use:
  • as a close defense weapon at home, a great deterrent, but without the risk of killing or seriously injuring the aggressor;
  • as a riot weapon, very effective for firing bullets in flexible material of large diameter or containers of coloring or tear gas liquids, not requiring the use of explosive for their implementation and not risking injure or kill those affected;
  • in the form of a heavier weapon for military use, finally, for the firing of small fused explosive shells, fumigants or anti-tanks.

Ce dernier type d'arme est connu dans la technique et est en usage notamment dans l'armée américaine (type d'arme M79 d'un calibre de 40 mm). Des armes analogues à cadence de tir supérieur sont aussi en cours d'études aux Etats-Unis et dans d'autres pays.The latter type of weapon is known in the art and is used in particular in the American army (type of weapon M79 with a caliber of 40 mm). Similar weapons with a higher rate of fire are also being studied in the United States and other countries.

On connaît également des armes anti-émeutes, mais qui sont généralement à réarmement manuel ou semi-automatique, ce qui constitue en sérieux inconvénient.Anti-riot weapons are also known, but which are generally with manual or semi-automatic rearming, which constitutes a serious drawback.

On a aussi décrit à la page 134 de "Encyclopédie Van Wapens", 1981, Uitgeverij Helmond B.V., un fusil à deux canons qui comporte une table supportant les canons et est montée pivotante sur une poutre fixée sur le bloc de culasse, mais qui n'est pas susceptible d'être démontée.We have also described on page 134 of "Van Wapens Encyclopedia", 1981, Uitgeverij Helmond BV, a rifle with two barrels which comprises a table supporting the barrels and is pivotally mounted on a beam fixed on the breech block, but which n is not likely to be disassembled.

Un premier but de l'invention est de doubler la cadence de tir des armes de ce type en utilisant des canons juxtaposés montés basculants.A first object of the invention is to double the rate of fire of weapons of this type by using juxtaposed cannons mounted tilting.

Un autre but de l'invention est de proposer une telle arme, dont les deux canons permettent un chargement et un tir sélectif avec des munitions différentes.Another object of the invention is to propose such a weapon, the two guns of which allow loading and selective firing with different munitions.

L'invention vise également à proposer une arme de ce type dont les canons repliables sur le bec de crosse facilite le transport malgré son calibre important.The invention also aims to propose a weapon of this type whose foldable barrels on the butt end of the stock facilitates transport despite its large caliber.

L'invention vise enfin à proposer une arme qui puisse être adaptée aux trois domaines entièrement différents d'utilisation mentionnés ci-dessus, sans risque d'interférence ou de substitution.Finally, the invention aims to propose a weapon which can be adapted to the three entirely different fields of use mentioned above, without risk of interference or substitution.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un lanceur de projectiles à deux canons parallèles montés basculants par rapport à la crosse, dans lequel lesdits canons sont portés par une table montée pivotante à une extrémité d'une poutre, caractérisé en ce que l'autre extrémité de cette poutre est portée sur un bloc de bascule fixé sur la crosse et en ce que ladite table a une forme telle qu'en position de tir du lanceur, elle chevauche ladite poutre en escamotant ainsi au moins partiellement cette dernière.To this end, the subject of the invention is a projectile launcher with two parallel guns mounted tilting relative to the stock, in which said guns are carried by a table mounted pivoting at one end of a beam, characterized in that the 'other end of this beam is carried on a rocker block fixed on the stick and in that said table has a shape such that in the launch position of the launcher, it overlaps said beam thereby at least partially retracting the latter.

Une forme de réalisation de l'invention sera décrite ci-après plus en détail en référence aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels:An embodiment of the invention will be described below in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

La figure 1 est une vue latérale partielle, avec des portions en coupe, du lanceur de projectiles en position de tir;Figure 1 is a partial side view, with sections in section, of the projectile launcher in the firing position;

La figure 2 est une vue analogue du lanceur de projectiles avec les canons basculés;Figure 2 is a similar view of the projectile launcher with the cannons tilted;

Dans la description qui va suivre en référence aux figures ci-dessus, on se limitera aux éléments caractéristiques de l'invention et l'on ne décrira pas, par exemple, le verrouillage du lanceur en projectiles ou l'extraction partielle des étuis au basculement des canons, ces systèmes étant classiques et ne faisant pas partie de l'invention.In the description which follows with reference to the figures above, we will limit ourselves to the characteristic elements of the invention and we will not describe, for example, the locking of the launcher in projectiles or the partial extraction of the cases at tilting. guns, these systems being conventional and not part of the invention.

Comme on le voit sur les figures 1 et 2, le lanceur de projectiles conforme à l'invention comprend deux canons 1 à axes parallèles, montés basculants par rapport à une crosse désignée par la référence générale 2.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, the projectile launcher according to the invention comprises two guns 1 with parallel axes, mounted tilting relative to a stock designated by the general reference 2.

Conformément à l'invention, les canons 1 sont portés par une table de bascule 3, qui n'est pas prise dans la masse du bloc bascule 4, lui-même fixé sur la crosse, mais est distincte de celui-ci et placée entre les canons 1 et sous les chambres. Cette table est articulée par un axe 5 à l'extrémité d'une poutre 6 dont l'autre extrémité est engagée dans un alésage 7 du bloc-bascule 4 et est rendue solidaire de celui-ci par un écrou 8 vissé dans un taraudage axial 9 de ladite poutre.According to the invention, the barrels 1 are carried by a rocking table 3, which is not taken from the mass of the rocking block 4, itself fixed on the stick, but is distinct from it and placed between cannons 1 and under the chambers. This table is articulated by a pin 5 at the end of a beam 6, the other end of which is engaged in a bore 7 of the rocker block 4 and is made integral with the latter by a nut 8 screwed into an axial thread 9 of said beam.

La table de bascule 3 comporte à sa partie inférieure un évidement 10, qui vient coiffer en position de tir la poutre 6 en l'escamotant au regard et en la protégeant ainsi de l'extérieur.The tilting table 3 has at its lower part a recess 10, which covers the beam 6 in the firing position, retracting it to the eye and thus protecting it from the outside.

La charnière de basculement peut naturellement être munie d'un bouton d'arrêt limitant la course de basculement des canons ou, au contraire, les libérant de manière à permettre leur retournement complet contre le bec de crosse, en vue de faciliter le transport de l'arme.The tilting hinge can naturally be provided with a stop button limiting the tilting stroke of the barrels or, on the contrary, releasing them so as to allow their complete overturning against the butt of the stock, in order to facilitate the transport of the 'armed.

On notera que le système de basculement avec une poutre reliant la table de bascule et le bloc de bascule permet de diminuer sensiblement la hauteur de l'arme au niveau du canon, à l'emplacement de l'articulation, comme le montre la figure 1, qui est une vue à l'échelle 1/1 d'une forme de réalisation.It will be noted that the tilting system with a beam connecting the tilting table and the tilting block makes it possible to significantly reduce the height of the weapon at the level of the barrel, at the location of the articulation, as shown in FIG. 1 , which is a 1/1 scale view of an embodiment.

Le bloc de bascule 4 est conçu de façon pouvoir loger le système de percussion d'une façon telle que l'ensemble se présente sous une forme très compacte. Ce bloc, usiné dans la masse, est très rigide et son placage à l'arrière de l'ensemble basculant est très simplifié par rapport aux moyens de la technique antérieure, du fait de l'amovibilité de la poutre 6, dont les dimensions longitudinales peuvent être ainsi aisément ajustées.The rocker block 4 is designed so as to be able to house the percussion system in such a way that the assembly is presented in a very compact form. This block, machined in the mass, is very rigid and its plating at the rear of the tilting assembly is very simplified compared to the means of the prior art, due to the removability of the beam 6, the longitudinal dimensions of which can thus be easily adjusted.
