Description

L'invention concerne un mécanisme de mise à feu pour armes à feu, ce mécanisme comprenant un chien pivotant entre une position "armée" et une position "tombée" en contact avec le percuteur, une gâchette pouvant retenir le chien en position armée, une détente proprement dite commandant la gâchette, des moyens pour faire pivoter le chien à partir de sa position armée vers le percuteur de l'arme lorsque ce chien est libéré par la gâchette et un dispositif de sécurité comprenant un élément de verrou enclenchable manuellement, pouvant bloquer la détente et le chien.The invention relates to a firing mechanism for firearms, this mechanism comprising a hammer pivoting between an "armed" position and a "fallen" position in contact with the striker, a trigger capable of retaining the dog in armed position, a trigger itself controlling the trigger, means for pivoting the dog from its armed position towards the striker of the weapon when this dog is released by the trigger and a safety device comprising a lock element which can be manually engaged, which can block relaxation and dog.

Il est généralement connu de pourvoir les armes à feu d'un verrouillage, enclenchable manuellement, de la détente ou d'un élément y connecté, afin d'empêcher le décrochage involontaire du chien lorsque l'arme est armée. Il n'est cependant pas exclu que, plus spécialement lors d'un maniement brutal de l'arme, par exemple une chute, le chien puisse heurter le percuteur malgré le fait que le dispositif de sécurité est enclenché, c'est-à-dire en position de sécurité. Il est en effet possible que, sous l'effet d'un choc, la gâchette pivote involontairement ou se brise ou que la partie du chien coopérant avec la gâchette se brise.It is generally known to provide firearms with a lock, which can be manually engaged, with the trigger or an element connected thereto, in order to prevent the involuntary stalling of the dog when the weapon is armed. It is not however excluded that, more particularly during a rough handling of the weapon, for example a fall, the dog could strike the striker despite the fact that the safety device is engaged, that is to say say in safety position. It is indeed possible that, under the effect of a shock, the trigger involuntarily pivots or breaks or that the part of the dog cooperating with the trigger breaks.

L'invention a pour but de pallier à cet inconvénient et de procurer un mécanisme de mise à feu possédant une sécurité supplémentaire empêchant de manière sûre que le chien vienne en contact avec le percuteur tant que le dispositif de sécurité est enclenché.The object of the invention is to overcome this drawback and to provide a firing mechanism having additional security which safely prevents the dog from coming into contact with the striker as long as the security device is engaged.

Conformément à l'invention, ce but est atteint par le fait que l'élément de verrou, en position de sécurité, coopère non seulement avec la détente, mais simultanément avec les moyens pour faire pivoter ce chien afin d'empêcher le chien de heurter le percuteur tant que l'élément de verrou est en sa position susdite.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the fact that the lock element, in the safety position, cooperates not only with the trigger, but simultaneously with the means for pivoting this dog in order to prevent the dog from striking the striker as long as the latch element is in its aforesaid position.

Dans une forme de réalisation particulière de l'invention, l'élément de verrou est déplaçable dans une direction parallèle à l'axe de pivotement du chien et comprend une partie coopérant en position de sécurité avec la détente et une autre partie coopérant en la même position avec les moyens pour faire pivoter le chien.In a particular embodiment of the invention, the lock element is movable in a direction parallel to the pivot axis of the dog and comprises a part cooperating in the safety position with the trigger and another part cooperating in the same position with the means to rotate the dog.

Les moyens pour faire pivoter le chien peuvent comprendre une bielle dont une extrémité est fixée de manière pivotante au chien, à une distance de son axe de pivotement, et un poussoir poussant sur l'autre extrémité de la bielle, cette autre extrémité étant pourvue d'un crochet pouvant coopérer avec la partie correspondante de l'élément de verrou.The means for pivoting the dog may comprise a connecting rod, one end of which is pivotally fixed to the dog, at a distance from its pivot axis, and a pusher pushing on the other end of the connecting rod, this other end being provided with 'a hook which can cooperate with the corresponding part of the lock element.

  • FIG. 8 represents a section along the line XIII-XIII of FIG. 7.

Le fusil selon la figure 1 comprend, de manière connue, une carcasse 1 avec la sous-garde 1', une crosse 2 montée à une extrémité sur la carcasse, un canon 3, montée à l'autre extrémité de la carcasse l et, à l'intérieur de la carcasse 1, un percuteur 4 (voir figure 5), un mécanisme d'armement et un mécanisme de mise à feu.The rifle according to FIG. 1 comprises, in known manner, a carcass 1 with the sub-guard 1 ', a stock 2 mounted at one end on the carcass, a barrel 3, mounted at the other end of the carcass l and, inside the carcass 1, a striker 4 (see FIG. 5), an arming mechanism and a firing mechanism.

Le mécanisme de mise à feu comprend, également de façon connue, un chien 5 monté de manière pivotante sur la sous-garde 1' autour d'un axe transversal 6 entre une position dite "armée" telle que représentée aux figures 2 et 4, et une position dite "tombée", représentée à la figure 5, dans laquelle le chien 5 heurte le percuteur 4. Ce percuteur 4 se trouve en avant, c'est-à-dire du côté du canon 3, par rapport au chien 5, en position tombée. La partie du chien 5 éloignée de l'axe 6 est repliée vers l'arrière vue dans cette position et forme à l'extrémité un bec 7.The firing mechanism also includes, in a known manner, a hammer 5 pivotally mounted on the sub-guard 1 ′ around a transverse axis 6 between a so-called "armed" position as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, and a so-called "fallen" position, shown in Figure 5, in which the hammer 5 strikes the striker 4. This striker 4 is located in front, that is to say on the side of the barrel 3, relative to the dog 5, in the dropped position. The part of the dog 5 remote from the axis 6 is folded back seen in this position and forms at the end a beak 7.

Le dispositif de mise à feu comprend également une gâchette 8 en forme de L, montée de manière pivotante dans la sous-garde 1' à l'aide d'un axe 9 et pouvant retenir le chien 5 dans sa position armée. Cette gâchette 8 est retenue dans sa position armée, c'est-à-dire la position représentée à la figure 2 dans laquelle elle retient le chien 5, à l'aide d'un ressort 10 sous tension entourant l'axe 9 et s'appuyant d'une part contre une partie 11 de la sous-garde 1' et inséré d'autre part dans un trou 12 prévu dans la gâchette 8.The firing device also includes an L-shaped trigger 8, pivotally mounted in the sub-guard 1 'using a pin 9 and capable of retaining the dog 5 in its armed position. This trigger 8 is retained in its armed position, that is to say the position shown in Figure 2 in which it retains the dog 5, using a spring 10 under tension surrounding the axis 9 and s 'pressing on the one hand against a part 11 of the sub-guard 1' and inserted on the other hand into a hole 12 provided in the trigger 8.

Une détente proprement dite 13 est montée de manière pivotante dans la sous-garde 1' à l'aide d'un axe 14 et commande la gâchette par l'intermédiaire d'un séparateur 15.An actual trigger 13 is pivotally mounted in the sub-guard 1 ′ using a pin 14 and controls the trigger via a separator 15.

Le séparateur 15 est monté de manière rotative entre les deux jambes de l'extrémité supérieure en fourche de la détente 13 à l'aide d'un axe 16. Les axes 9, 14 et 16 sont parallèles à l'axe 6 du chien 5. Un ressort 17 fixé d'une part à un support 18 solidaire de la sous-garde 1' et d'autre part au séparateur 15, à une distance de l'axe 16, tire le levier et par conséquent l'extrémité supérieure de la détente 13 en arrière, c'est-à-dire dans la position normale représentée aux figures 2 et 4.The separator 15 is rotatably mounted between the two legs of the upper fork end of the trigger 13 using an axis 16. The axes 9, 14 and 16 are parallel to the axis 6 of the dog 5 A spring 17 fixed on the one hand to a support 18 integral with the sub-guard 1 'and on the other hand to the separator 15, at a distance from the axis 16, pulls the lever and therefore the upper end of the trigger 13 backwards, that is to say in the normal position shown in FIGS. 2 and 4.

Le séparateur 15 est empêché de pivoter sous l'action du ressort 17 parce que son extrémité avant est prise en-dessous d'une extrémité repliée vers l'arrière d'un bras de la gâchette 8.The separator 15 is prevented from pivoting under the action of the spring 17 because its front end is taken below a folded back end of a trigger arm 8.

Cette extrémité est pourvue à l'arrière d'un cran 19 dans lequel le bec 7 du chien 5 s'accroche en position armée.This end is provided at the rear with a notch 19 in which the beak 7 of the dog 5 hooks in the armed position.

Le mécanisme de mise à feu comprend également des moyens 20 pour faire pivoter le chien 5 dès qu'il n'est plus retenu par la gâchette 8, ces moyens 20 comprenant une bielle de chien 21, s'étendant entre les bras de fourche de la détente 13 et fixée par son extémité avant de manière pivotante au chien 5 à l'aide d'un axe 22 parallèle à, mais situé à une distance de, l'axe 6, et un poussoir 23 poussé en avant par un ressort 24, agissant sur l'extrémité arrière de la bielle 21 et montée dans un creux 25 dans la sous-garde 1'.The firing mechanism also comprises means 20 for pivoting the dog 5 as soon as it is no longer retained by the trigger 8, these means 20 comprising a dog connecting rod 21, extending between the fork arms of the trigger 13 and fixed by its front end in a pivoting manner to the dog 5 by means of an axis 22 parallel to, but located at a distance from, the axis 6, and a pusher 23 pushed forward by a spring 24 , acting on the rear end of the connecting rod 21 and mounted in a recess 25 in the sub-guard 1 '.

Une des caractéristiques de l'invention est que l'extrémité arrière de la bielle 21 forme un crochet 26.One of the characteristics of the invention is that the rear end of the connecting rod 21 forms a hook 26.

Le mécanisme de mise à feu comprend en outre un dispositif de sécurité manuel qui est composé essentiellement d'un élément de verrou 27, logé dans une ouverture transversale dans la sous-garde 1' et s'étendant donc parallèlement aux axes 6, 9, 14 et 16.The firing mechanism further comprises a manual safety device which is essentially composed of a latch element 27, housed in a transverse opening in the sub-guard 1 ′ and therefore extending parallel to the axes 6, 9, 14 and 16.

Il est également caractéristique que cet élément de verrou 27 ne comprend pas uniquement une partie 28 coopérant, en position de sécurité, directement avec la détente 13 pour l'empêcher d'être actionnée, mais également une partie 29, coopérant dans cette position avec le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 pour retenir celle-ci. L'élément de verrou 27 peut être mû de la position de sécurité , telle que représentée aux figures 7 et 8 à la position dite de tir, telle que représentée aux figures 2 à 6, par coulissement selon son axe longitudinal, à l'aide d'un bouton 30 formé à une extrémité et faisant saillie à l'extérieur de la sous-garde 1', du côté droit ou du côté gauche selon le choix de l'utilisateur de l'arme, la symétrie de l'élément de verrou le rendant réversible.It is also characteristic that this lock element 27 does not only comprise a part 28 cooperating, in the safety position, directly with the trigger 13 to prevent it from being actuated, but also a part 29, cooperating in this position with the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 to retain the latter. The latch element 27 can be moved from the safety position, as shown in Figures 7 and 8 to the so-called firing position, as shown in Figures 2 to 6, by sliding along its longitudinal axis, using a button 30 formed at one end and protruding outside the sub-guard 1 ', on the right side or on the left side according to the choice of the user of the weapon, the symmetry of the lock element making it reversible.

La partie 28 a une section en forme de triangle avec la pointe en bas. La partie 29 adjacente a la même section mais avec une encoche dans les deux coins supérieurs de manière à former à cet endroit un cran d'arrêt dans lequel le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 s'accroche en position armée du chien 5 et position de sécurité de l'élément de verrou 27. Cet cran d'arrêt destiné à recevoir le crochet 26 est flanqué de part et d'autre d'une partie de l'élément de verrou 27 faisant saillie par rapport au cran d'arrêt de sorte que, lorsque le crochet 26 est engagé dans ce cran d'arrêt, le changement de position de l'élément de verrou 27 est empêché par la présence du crochet 26. Entre les parties 28 et 29 d'une part et le bouton 30 d'autre part, l'élément de verrou 27 comprend une partie 31 à section triangulaire mais plus petite que celle de la partie 28.Part 28 has a triangle-shaped section with the tip down. The adjacent part 29 has the same section but with a notch in the two upper corners so as to form at this point a catch notch in which the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 is hooked in the armed position of the dog 5 and in the position of security of the lock element 27. This catch notch intended to receive the hook 26 is flanked on either side of a part of the lock element 27 projecting relative to the catch notch that, when the hook 26 is engaged in this catch, the change of position of the latch element 27 is prevented by the presence of the hook 26. Between the parts 28 and 29 on the one hand and the button 30 d on the other hand, the latch element 27 comprises a part 31 with a triangular section but smaller than that of the part 28.

Le mécanisme de mise à feu fonctionne comme suit:
L'armement du chien 5 se fait de manière connue. En position armée, le chien 5 est accroché avec son bec 7 dans le cran 19 de la gâchette 8. Cette dernière retient également le séparateur 15 dans la position représentée à la figure 2. La bielle 21 repousse alors le poussoir 23 à l'encontre du ressort 24.The firing mechanism works as follows:
The arming of the dog 5 is done in a known manner. In the armed position, the dog 5 is hooked with its beak 7 in the notch 19 of the trigger 8. The latter also retains the separator 15 in the position shown in FIG. 2. The connecting rod 21 then pushes the pusher 23 against spring 24.

Lorsque l'élément de verrou 27 est en position de sécurité, la partie 28 est en contact avec la détente 13 et empêche tout mouvement de celle-ci. En même temps, le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 est situé derrière et en face du cran d'arrêt de la partie 29. L'armement du chien 5 peut avoir lieu tandis que l'élément de verrou 27 est en position de sécurité. Dans ce but, lors du mouvement arrière de la bielle 21, la face oblique 33 du crochet 26 force la partie arrière de la bielle 21, y compris le crochet 26, à passer au-dessus de la face supérieure 32 de l'élément de verrou 27. Ce faisant, l'appui de la bielle 21 glisse obliquement sur la face 34 du poussoir 23. Une fois le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 passé en arrière du cran d'arrêt de la partie 29 de l'élément de verrou 27, l'action du ressort 24 combinée à l'obliquité de la face 34 du poussoir 23 entraîne la partie arrière de la bielle 21, y compris le crochet 26, dans une position où le crochet 26 est en regard du cran d'arrêt de la partie 29 de l'élément de verrou 27. Une fois armé, le chien 5 est donc mis en sécurité jusqu'à ce qu'on fasse passer l'élément de verrou 27 en position de tir.When the latch element 27 is in the safety position, the part 28 is in contact with the trigger 13 and prevents any movement of the latter. At the same time, the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 is located behind and opposite the stop notch of part 29. Arming the dog 5 can take place while the latch element 27 is in the safety position. For this purpose, during the rear movement of the connecting rod 21, the oblique face 33 of the hook 26 forces the rear part of the connecting rod 21, including the hook 26, to pass over the upper face 32 of the element of latch 27. In doing so, the support of the connecting rod 21 slides obliquely on the face 34 of the pusher 23. Once the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 passed behind the stop notch of the part 29 of the latch element 27, the action of the spring 24 combined with the obliquity of the face 34 of the pusher 23 drives the rear part of the connecting rod 21, including the hook 26, in a position where the hook 26 is opposite the catch of part 29 of the lock element 27. Once armed, the hammer 5 is therefore placed in safety until the lock element 27 is passed into the firing position.

Après avoir déverrouillé l'élément de verrou 27 et donc l'avoir mis en position de tir, ce qui est réalisé en poussant sur le bouton 30 et en déplaçant l'élément de verrou 27 jusque dans la position de la figure 3, le mécanisme de détente se trouve alors dans la position telle que représentée aux figures 2 à 4. Le chien 5 reste accroché à la gâchette 8 et rien ne se passe, mais la détente 13 peut être tirée vers l'arrière puisqu'elle se trouve en face de la partie plus petite 31 de l'élément de verrou 27 et la bielle 21 n'est plus retenue par l'élément de verrou 27 parce qu'elle se trouve au-dessus de cette partie 31 et donc à côté du cran d'arrêt de la partie 29.After unlocking the lock element 27 and therefore having put it in the firing position, which is achieved by pushing the button 30 and moving the lock element 27 into the position of FIG. 3, the mechanism trigger is then in the position as shown in Figures 2 to 4. The dog 5 remains attached to the trigger 8 and nothing happens, but the trigger 13 can be pulled back since it is opposite of the smaller part 31 of the latch element 27 and the connecting rod 21 is no longer retained by the latch element 27 because it is located above this part 31 and therefore next to the notch end of game 29.

Lorsqu'on tire la détente 13 vers l'arrière, le séparateur 15 est poussé en avant et fait basculer la gâchette 8 en avant à l'encontre du ressort 10. Le chien 5 est ainsi libéré et, puisque le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 ne rencontre aucune obstacle, il pivote jusqu'en position tombée et heurte le percuteur 4 comme représenté aux figures 5 et 6.When the trigger 13 is pulled back, the separator 15 is pushed forward and causes the trigger 8 to tilt forward against the spring 10. The dog 5 is thus released and, since the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 don't meets no obstacle, it pivots to the fallen position and strikes the striker 4 as shown in Figures 5 and 6.

Aux figures 7 et 8, l'élément de verrou 27 est représenté en position de sécurité. Comme déjà expliqué, la détente 13 est alors bloquée et le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 se trouve en regard de la partie 29 de l'élément de verrou 27. Si pour une raison quelconque, par exemple un pivotement involontaire de la gâchette 8 sous l'effet d'un choc ou un manquement mécanique tel que le bris du chien 5 ou de la gâchette 8, la gâchette 8 ne retient plus le chien 5, ce dernier est cependant empêché par la bielle 21 de heurter le percuteur 4, cette bielle 21 formant une sécurité supplémentaire et restant accrochée à l'élément de verrou 27.In Figures 7 and 8, the latch member 27 is shown in the safety position. As already explained, the trigger 13 is then blocked and the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 is located opposite the part 29 of the lock element 27. If for any reason, for example an involuntary pivoting of the trigger 8 under the effect of a shock or a mechanical failure such as the breakage of the dog 5 or of the trigger 8, the trigger 8 no longer retains the dog 5, the latter is however prevented by the rod 21 from striking the striker 4, this connecting rod 21 forming additional security and remaining attached to the latch element 27.

Dû au fait que le crochet 26 de la bielle 21 se trouve dans une des encoches formant un cran d'arrêt de la partie 29 de l'élément de verrou 27, il est en plus impossible de faire passer l'élément de verrou 27 en position de tir. On doit d'abord réarmer le chien 5. Si après ce réarmement, on peut faire passer l'élément de verrou 27 en position de tir, c'est que le décrochage intempestif du chien 5 était dû à un choc et pas à une défaillance mécanique et l'arme peut être utilisé normalement.Due to the fact that the hook 26 of the connecting rod 21 is in one of the notches forming a stop notch of the part 29 of the lock element 27, it is also impossible to pass the lock element 27 into firing position. The dog 5 must first be rearmed. If after this rearmament, the lock element 27 can be moved to the firing position, this is because the untimely stalling of the dog 5 was due to a shock and not to a failure mechanical and the weapon can be used normally.

Si par contre, après avoir réarmé le chien 5, on n'arrive toujours pas à faire passer l'élément de verrou 27 en position de tir, on est en présence d'une défaillance mécanique qui demande, pour être réparée, d'enlever l'ensemble sous-garde de l'arme. L'arme est donc inopérantetant que cette réparation n'a pas été faite.If, on the other hand, after rearming the dog 5, it still does not succeed in passing the lock element 27 into the firing position, there is a mechanical failure which requires, in order to be repaired, to remove the whole sub-guard of the weapon. The weapon is therefore inoperative as long as this repair has not been made.

Le mécanisme de mise à feu décrit ci-devant possède une sécurité accrue et empêche que le chien 5 heurte le percuteur 4 même en cas d'un choc ou d'une défaillance mécanique, lorsque l'élément de verrou 27 est en position de sécurité.The firing mechanism described above has increased security and prevents the dog 5 from striking the striker 4 even in the event of an impact or a mechanical failure, when the lock element 27 is in the security position. .

Le chien 5 peut passer de la position "tombée" à la position "armée" quelle que soit la position de la sûreté, c'est-à-dire l'élément de verrou 27 (position "tir" ou position "sûreté").The dog 5 can pass from the "fallen" position to the "armed" position whatever the position of the safety, that is to say the latch element 27 ("firing" position or "safety" position) .

La sûreté peut être engagée en position "tir" ou "sûreté" quelle que soit la position du chien 5 ("tombée" ou "armée"), sauf si, à la suite d'une défaillance mécanique, le crochet 26 est maintenu en contact avec la partie 29 de l'élément de verrou 27.Safety can be engaged in the "firing" or "safety" position whatever the position of the dog 5 ("fallen" or "army"), unless, following a mechanical failure, the hook 26 is held in contact with part 29 of the lock element 27.

Il est évident que de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées à l'exemple susdécrit, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.It is obvious that many modifications can be made to the example described above, without going beyond the ambit of the invention.

En particulier, la forme de l'élément de verrou n'est donnée qu'à titre d'exemple. D'autres formes sont possibles pour autant qu'en position de sécurité, une partie puisse empêcher le mouvement de la détente, tandis que simultanément une autre partie puisse retenir la bielle du chien ou tout autre moyen pour faire pivoter le chien lorqu'il est libéré par la gâchette.In particular, the shape of the lock element is given only by way of example. Other forms are possible provided that in the safety position, one part can prevent the movement of the trigger, while simultaneously another part can hold the rod of the dog or any other means to rotate the dog when it is released by the trigger.

La connexion entre la détente et la gâchette ne doit pas nécessairement être constituée par un séparateur. En effet, la gâchette peut être un élément ou une partie de la détente.The connection between the trigger and the trigger does not necessarily have to be a separator. Indeed, the trigger can be an element or a part of the trigger.
