Definitions

  • the invention relates to a weapon system of several rapid-fire guns of different types and associated mounted grenade launchers of the same type, which are provided with own grip, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the US grenade launcher M 203 which is set up for attachment under the barrel of the rapid-fire gun Colt M 16 A1.
  • the grenade launcher is assigned a separate forend or hand guard, which is attached to this instead of the original hand guard of the automatic rifle (see also DE 35 40 641 C2).
  • a force-absorbing fixed bearing is attached to the gas sampling nozzle, in which engages a force-inducing coupling device of the grenade launcher to initiate its recoil forces in the rifle.
  • the floating bearing is installed near the recharging device, ie behind the fixed bearing.
  • Floating bearings in the context of the invention serve for the storage of a component. They transmit no axial forces and allow axial movement of the component. Fixed bearings, however, take on the storage of a component axial forces and prevent its axial movement.
  • the grenade launcher M 203 is not attachable.
  • CA 2 246 988 A1 shows an adapter or adapter for temporary attachment of weapon accessories, such as a grenade launcher, to a self-loading rifle.
  • the grenade launcher is firmly connected to the intermediate piece via screws or similar fasteners.
  • the front end of the intermediate piece by means of a first holder on the barrel and the rear end by means of a second holder, clamped against a spacer attached.
  • the brackets are designed to prevent backward movement between the grenade launcher and the self loading rifle. Both brackets take as axial bearing on axial recoil forces.
  • a similar weapon system is shown in CA 2 247 234 A1.
  • the front end of the intermediate piece is attached to the bayonet approach and its rear end to the magazine holder.
  • the front bracket is designed as a rigid, force-introducing attachment. It picks up the bayonet lug and secures it with a snap against any axial movement or rotation.
  • the bracket at the rear end is also rigid and formed as a press fit. It comprises a yielding cushion, which is arranged perpendicular to the direction of force between two wall parts.
  • the grenade launcher is clamped with the adapter against the pad so that it can not move axially. Both brackets absorb, transmit and absorb axial recoil forces. Again, the attachment of the grenade launcher on self-loading rifle by means of two fixed bearings.
  • the invention has the object to find a weapon system in which an identical grenade launcher can be attached to a variety of rapid-fire guns; primarily on the above-mentioned M 16 in the standard as well as the short version.
  • the fit of movable bearing and non-transmitting coupling device is already set up to accommodate high tolerances, so that the occurrence of an additional tolerance due to the adapter is irrelevant.
  • the force-inducing coupling device is mounted directly on the grenade launcher itself, so not on the adapter.
  • the coupling device can be used in weapons whose fixed bearing is identical, but mounted at different locations, such as the aforementioned US rifle M 16 A1 and its short version.
  • the condition is, however, that the fixed bearing is not too close to the reloading of the rapid-fire rifle.
  • the adapter does not have to transmit recoil forces and therefore can be performed in lightweight construction of light metal or plastic.
  • the adapter can be mounted with the simplest means.
  • the grenade launcher itself is identical. Only the adapter or optionally the force-introducing coupling device must be selected as intended.
  • the adapter can simply have a flat, parallel to the weft direction surface (claim 2). This flat surface sits on a complementary surface of the grenade launcher. There, the adapter can be held by the simplest fastening devices, preferably screws.
  • the flat counterface on the grenade launcher can accommodate different sized approach surfaces of a variety of adapters, without any adjustments are needed. For fastening sufficient simple screws or similar fasteners completely, since the adapter does not have to transmit any recoil forces.
  • the housing of the grenade launcher is preferably made of light metal or reinforced plastic.
  • the force-introducing coupling device consists of steel (claim 3), which is embedded with a wide bearing surface in the light metal or the reinforced plastic of the grenade launcher housing and this, based on the weft direction, engages behind. This creates a surface pressure in the material of the grenade launcher housing, the far below its strength limit. The same applies to the adapter, as far as the force-introducing coupling device is attached to this.
  • the aforementioned coupling device can be removably attached to the grenade launcher housing or adapter. However, it is preferably produced in composite casting together with the receiving part.
  • the fixed bearing as known per se, designed as a hammer head pin (claim 4); that is, as a bolt which extends perpendicular to the weft direction, has a widened head and engages with this in an undercut groove of the coupling device.
  • a spring-protected cross pin holds the hammer head pin.
  • the floating bearing is, however, (claim 5) preferably a simple, open towards the front or in the weft direction groove into which the complementarily formed, rear end of the adapter is simply inserted.
  • the said groove is formed deep enough to accommodate any tolerance that occurs on the adapter can.
  • the original fore-end of the automatic rifle can continue to be used. Replacement is not required. Of course, optionally, a matched forearm can be used.
  • the grenade launcher is intended for attachment to a rapid-fire rifle. But it can also be used as an individual weapon, where it is shot like a pistol out of hand.
  • a shoulder support is preferably provided, which can be attached instead of the adapter on the grenade launcher (claim 6) and which is then advantageously mounted when the Grenade launcher is intended from the outset as a single weapon.
  • the shoulder rest can be replaced again against the adapter.
  • the shoulder rest can be made of aluminum plastic, for example.
  • the connection between grenade launcher and adapter or shoulder rest can have the shape of a dovetail guide.
  • the adapter 9 has on its rear side a projecting arrangement which forms a non-force-transmitting coupling device 15.
  • a clamping trigger 11 is arranged before the handle 3.
  • the adapter 9 of Fig. 1 is a short adapter.
  • the grenade launcher shown is set up for attachment to a rapid fire rifle short version.
  • the housing 1 of the grenade launcher is also shown in Fig. 2. However, there are missing the barrel 5 and the handle 5. Only the tension trigger 11 and a part of the trigger means are shown.
  • a long adapter 9 ' is mounted, which is adapted for attachment of the grenade launcher to a normal rapid-fire rifle (not the short version).
  • the structure is in accordance with that of the short adapter 9 of FIG. 1, but it is extended rearwardly and has a non-force transmitting coupling means 15 ', which is farther from the front of the adapter 9', than that of the adapter 9 with the non-transmitting coupling device 15 of FIG. 1 is the case.
  • a force-introducing coupling device 13 is arranged in front of the adapter 9 and 9 ', which is cast as a composite casting of steel in the aluminum housing 1.
  • a groove 19 is formed (see also Figs. 3 and 4), which is open to the rear.
  • the tops of the groove walls are approximated to each other so that they form an undercut, in which a hammer head pin can be inserted from the rear.
  • This hammer head pin (not shown) is attached to the rapid-fire rifle (usually on the gas-collecting channel receiving part) and forms its fixed bearing.
  • the adapter 9 As shown in Fig. 3, the adapter 9 'on its underside a flat lug surface 17 which sits smoothly on a complementary planar surface of the grenade launcher housing 1.
  • the (long) adapter 9 ' is fastened to the housing 1, can be removed and can be replaced by a short adapter 9 (FIGS. 1 and 5), for example.
  • Fig. 4 shows in plan view that the adapter 9 'extends only over part of the length of the housing 1.
  • the coupling device 13 remains free; between its rear edge and the front edge of the adapter 9 'is plenty of space for attaching the hammer head pin (not shown).
  • the rear coupling device 15 has, in addition to an arcuate web on both sides thereof, a pin which engages in a recess of the movable bearing (not shown).
  • FIG. 5 shows in plan view the not yet installed, short adapter 9 of FIG. 1.
  • the top of the adapter 9, 9 ' is each recessed trough-shaped fitting for hand protection or forearm of the associated rapid-fire rifle, so that the grenade launcher fits snugly under the front part of the rifle. If the grenade launcher is shot with the rapid-fire rifle, then the shooter, if he is right-handed, grips the grip 3 with his left hand. If he is shot with the grenade launcher, he grips the grip 3 with his right hand.
