Definitions

  • the invention relates to a trigger device for automatic handguns, with a catch lever pivotally mounted about a transverse axis, which, seen in the direction of travel, receives a pivotable catch pawl at its front end and, in a catch position, a return piece which slides back after firing against spring force and belongs to the launching device. the like holds onto a catch in the rear position.
  • the slider, the closure, or the like with a transversely displaceable firing chamber via a link control.
  • interacting guide carriage or the like Can be part of the launcher, prevented from its forward movement required to trigger a shot and released only occasionally for firing a shot, for which purpose the catch pivots into the slide track and catches the leading, spring-loaded slide.
  • the catch pawl rotatably mounted on the catch lever is resiliently supported both with respect to the catch lever and with a trigger housing and itself serves as a control part for the catch lever movement into the catch and release position.
  • This spring-loaded swivel lever either engages directly in a recess of the catch pawl by means of a nose or with the interposition of a rotatable pinion and its pivoting when the trigger is actuated brings the catch pawl into a release position against the force of the catch pawl spring, but releasing the trigger allows its spring force-dependent swiveling back and thus a snap-up of the catch pawl into the catch position, whereby special control devices with their own control levers protruding into the closure track ensure a release of the catch pawl which is precisely coordinated with the closure movement and the correct reaching of the catch position.
  • self-loading pistols are also known in which the loading device has an operating lever which engages on a two-armed lever lying approximately parallel to the breech path, which two-armed lever has one arm with a pivotable breech holder and one over the other arm interacts with a catch for the hammer.
  • the breech holder which is usually pushed up into the breech path by a nose of the magazine, catches the breech in the rear position after the last cartridge has been fired and can then be operated by the operating lever release the lock on the one hand and relax the hammer on the other.
  • These self-loading pistols are firing weapons, the trigger of which is not directly connected to the loading device and, when actuated independently of the operating lever and two-armed lever, cocks the hammer and releases it from a trigger position for firing the shot.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of eliminating these deficiencies and of creating a trigger device of the type described at the outset, which permits simplification of the construction and the production outlay and also ensures the greatest possible functional reliability even with the increased use of lighter materials.
  • the invention solves this problem in that the catch lever can be locked against the force of a catch spring in the catch position and the catch is articulated on the one hand on the catch lever with longitudinal movement play and on the other hand is pivotally supported on a weapon-resistant abutment.
  • the catch it is therefore only necessary for the catch to be made of a correspondingly resistant, high-strength material, and the catch lever and most of the other components of the trigger device can be made from lighter materials.
  • the combination of a catch lever and catch pawl achieves a higher level of catch safety, since the catch lever swings up into the path of the catch attachment of the slide Catch pawl is loaded by the slider in the sense of further swinging open in the catching direction and thereby or the like even in the event of any deformations that may occur. the functional safety remains unaffected in the area of the catch approach or catch pawl.
  • a particularly advantageous construction results from the fact that an elongated, approximately parallel to the slide track two-arm catch lever is provided, the front lever arm of which carries the catch pawl and whose rear lever arm has a locking lug for attacking the trigger and the interrupter, that the longitudinally guided, spring-loaded trigger as a slide forms the trigger itself with a trigger lug and the spring-loaded interrupter forming an interrupting lug is pivotably mounted on the trigger slide, which trigger or interrupter lug in the operative position each overlap the locking approach, and that the locking lever in its locking position limits the pivotal movement of the interrupter before reaching the active position, with a cross-adjustable safety slide via control surfaces in a single area uer too displaces the locking lever against the force of a locking lever spring from the locking position, releases this locking position for the locking lever in a continuous fire position and locks the trigger in its starting position in a securing position.
  • the trigger and interrupter must be spring-loaded in order to be able to fulfill their tasks, the trigger being held in its initial position by its spring and the interrupter being loaded in the catching direction. If, according to the invention, a common spring is provided for loading the trigger and the interrupter, there is a further structural simplification, this spring being fastened, for example, to the trigger slide and being supported on the one hand on a fixed part of the trigger device and on the other hand on the interrupter designed as a lever.
  • the shot number limiter consists of a spring-loaded control disk rotatably mounted in the trigger slide, which on the one hand has ratchet teeth for engaging a spring-loaded, rifle-supported pawl and on the other hand control teeth for engaging a spring-loaded, trigger-proof supported ratchet, the control pawl can be actuated via an actuating projection of the catch lever and the first locking tooth in the direction of rotation of the control disk forms an elevated stop for a driver of the locking lever.
  • the catch lever is not locked after each individual shot, but instead, controlled by the reciprocating slide piece, leads to a continuous firing of the shot.
  • the actuation approach of Catch lever and the control pawl actuated therewith further rotates the control disk tooth by tooth until the locking tooth, which forms a raised stop, lifts the locking lever out of its locked position, thereby releasing the interrupter and interrupting the firing sequence.
  • the pawl prevents the control disk from being turned back unintentionally and ensures that with each shot fired, the control disk rotates by one tooth pitch and the shot sequence is forcibly terminated after a number of wefts corresponding to the number of teeth. If the sequence of shots is interrupted, i.e.
  • the trigger must be released for another shot to be fired so that the advancing trigger slide moves the control disc away from the pawl, the control disc can return to its starting position and of course triggers and interrupters also come to the starting positions.
  • pressing the trigger again leads to the firing of a single shot or to the firing of a certain number of shots.
  • the interrupter and control disk can be mounted coaxially on the trigger slide and the control disk and pawl can be acted upon by a common spring.
  • a common spring in addition to the bearing bolts and bushes, springs and the like, small parts only the catch pawl is made of metal, the other components are made of plastic, which also reduces the weight and has a damping effect for the impact loads to be absorbed.
  • an elongated two-armed catch lever 4 which is pivotably mounted about a transverse axis 3 and which, via a catch lever spring 5 in the sense of releasing a schematically indicated, with the not shown firing device of the weapon 1 interacting, sliding in the direction of sliding out slide 6 is loaded.
  • the catch lever 4 receives with its front lever arm 4a a catch pawl 7 for grasping the catch projection 6a of the slide 6 assigned to it, which catch pawl 7 is articulated with longitudinal movement play via an elongated hole bearing 8 on the catch lever 4 and additionally via a bearing jaw 9 on a weapon-mounted abutment 10 is pivotally supported, so that the impact forces when catching the sliding element 6, which is moved forward by the action of the spring 10a, which is also supported against the weapon, are introduced essentially via the catch pawl 7 directly into the weapon 1 and the catch lever 4 and thus the entire trigger device itself can be largely unloaded .
  • the rear lever arm 4b of the catch lever 4 has a locking lug 11, which interacts on the one hand with a trigger lug 12 of the trigger 13 designed as a slide 13a, itself provided as a trigger, and on the other hand with an interrupter 14 and its interrupter lug 14a.
  • the interrupter 14 is pivotable on the trigger slide 13a mounted, a common spring 15 loads both the interrupter 14 in the catching direction and the trigger slide 13a against the trigger device, which trigger spring is provided as a leg spring, which sits on a guide pin 13b of the trigger slide 13a and with the legs on the housing 2 and on the interrupter 14 supports.
  • a locking lever 16 pivotally mounted in the housing 2 serves to limit the interrupter pivoting movement, so that the interrupter 14 can be brought into or out of function via this locking lever 16.
  • a cross-adjustable safety slide 17 which not only locks the trigger 13 in its starting position in its locked position, but also displaces the locking lever 16 from its active position in a single fire position and releases this active position for the locking lever in a continuous fire position, for which purpose Locking lever 16 is raised or lowered by the interaction of the control surfaces 17a, 17b of the safety slide 17 and a locking lever spring 16c pressing it against the control surfaces, thereby bringing locking stops 16a for limiting the interrupter movement into or out of the movement path of the interrupter 14.
  • the safety slide 17 is brought into the single-fire position, so that the locking lever 16 with its locking stops 16a is outside the range of the breaker 14.
  • the catch lever 4 is locked in the catch position by the trigger nose 12 which overlaps the locking projection 11, and the catch pawl 7, which is supported on the abutment 10, is pivoted up into the slide track, so that the leading slide 6 with its catch projection 6a is caught by the catch pawl 7 and that Slider 6 is held in the rear position (Fig. 1).
  • the catch lever spring 5 pivots the catch lever 4 with the rear lever arm 4b and down with the front lever arm 4a and takes the catch pawl 7 into the release position, so that the slide 6 can snap forward and a shot is released (FIG. 2).
  • the slide 6 is thrown back by the released powder gases, for example via a gas drive, not shown, and throws the catch lever 4 back against the force of the catch lever spring 5 when it returns via a corresponding control approach 6b, which interacts with a suitable contact surface 4c of the catch lever.
  • the spring 15 pushes the trigger slide 13a into the starting position, as a result of which the trigger lug 12 in turn overlaps the locking lug 11 and locks the catch lever 4 before the interrupter 14, which is also moved, is pulled off the locking lug 11 with its breaker lug 14a.
  • the starting position has been reached and a new shot can be fired (FIG. 1).
  • the safety slide 17 is in the continuous fire position, in which the locking lever 16 is brought into the locked position with the control surface 17b and the locking stop 16a is a pivoting of the Interrupter 14 prevented in its operative position.
  • the pivoting catch lever 4 is no longer locked, since neither the trigger nose 12 nor the interrupter nose 14a can reach the locking projection 11 of the catch lever 4, so that the catch lever 4 now pivots up automatically without a lock when the slide 6 moves forward and there is no catching of the slider 6.
  • the trigger nose 12 is pushed back (Fig. 5 and 6). Only when the trigger 13 is released, the trigger nose 12 moves into the range of the locking projection 11, so that a renewed pivoting of the catch lever 4 and thus a release of the slider 6 with another shot is impossible.
  • the trigger device is equipped with a shot number limiter 18, which consists of a spring-loaded control disk 19, which is mounted in the trigger slide 13a and is rotatably mounted coaxially to the interrupter 14, and a spring-loaded, trigger-proof control pawl 20 and a weapon-supported, spring-loaded pawl 21, the control pawl 20 engaging in control teeth 19a of the control disk 19 can be actuated via an actuating shoulder 4d of the catch lever 4 and the first tooth of the pawl teeth 19b of the control disk 19 assigned to the pawl 21 in the direction of rotation of the control disk 19 raised stop 19c for a driver 16b of the locking lever 16 forms.
  • a shot number limiter 18 which consists of a spring-loaded control disk 19, which is mounted in the trigger slide 13a and is rotatably mounted coaxially to the interrupter 14, and a spring-loaded, trigger-proof control pawl 20 and a weapon-supported, spring-loaded pawl 21, the control pawl 20 engaging in control teeth 19a of the control disk
  • the safety slide 17 releases the blocking position for the blocking lever 16, so that the interrupter 14 remains ineffective as long as the blocking lever 16 with its blocking stops 16a limits the panning movement.
  • the catch lever 4 is held by the trigger nose 12 of the trigger 13, the pawl 21 supports the Control disc 19 at the stop 19c against the action of the return spring 22, which at the same time loads the pawl arm 21a of the pawl 21 with a leg 22a, and the control pawl 20 lies outside the range of the actuating projection 4d (FIG. 4).
  • the catch lever 4 is released on the one hand by the trigger lug 12, on the other hand the control pawl 20 is pushed under the actuating projection 4d and the pawl 21 reaches its engagement position for the engagement in the ratchet teeth 19b. If, after each shot has been fired, the catch lever 4 is pivoted back, the actuating projection 4d presses down the control pawl 20, which engages in the control teeth 19a and rotates the control disk 19 by one tooth pitch with each shot. The pawl 21 prevents the control disk 19 from turning back by the return spring 22 by latching from one tooth into the other like the control pawl 20 per shot (FIG. 6).
  • the control disk 19 is rotated so far that the stop 19c has lifted the catch 16b of the locking lever 16 and thus has brought the locking lever 16 out of the locked position, as a result of which the interrupter 14 can pivot into its operative position and the interrupter nose 14a the swinging-back catch lever 4 locked by gripping over the locking lug 11 in the catch position (FIG. 7).
  • the sequence of shots is ended and renewed firing can only be achieved by releasing the trigger 13, the trigger nose 12 again engaging over the locking projection 11 before the interrupter nose 14a slides.
