Definitions

  • a linear supply of the ammunition is described in a gun barrel or cartridge chamber having a control link used for function control in the horizontal plane parallel to the path of a straight-to-leading closure of the closure weapon.
  • the drive link is integrated in a movable slide, which in turn is adjusted by a universal design drive.
  • a locking link is provided, which is preferably integrated together with the drive link in the movable slide.
  • this locking link can engage a bolt preferably a weapon side arranged locking ring. This bolt in turn then moves the locking ring.
  • a connecting rod or the like is forcibly guided through the scenes and the slide along these scenes. With this connecting rod, the shutter is moved back and forth.
  • a use for a drum weapon is neither planned nor possible.
  • the invention has the object to show a function control for a drum weapon, with a simple feeding of the ammunition can be achieved in a gun barrel.
  • the invention is based on the idea to realize the function control also by means of scenes and in this guided connecting rod.
  • the function control itself includes the feeding of an ammunition into the drum or the respective cartridge chamber and the circuit of a drum for adjusting selbiger.
  • Both connecting rods are operated by a common slide or guided in the scenes of the slider. Located in one of the scenes Thus, the connecting rod, which interacts with a slide switch, in the other backdrop, the connecting rod of the feed is performed.
  • the slide or the scenes integrated therein are preferably divided or at least in two levels, wherein the two levels are mutually adjustable (displaceable). A further division would be possible, but is not considered necessary.
  • the slide switch or cam of the slide switch of the drum is in turn guided in a switching curve, which is peripherally integrated on the drum.
  • a switching curve which is peripherally integrated on the drum.
  • the drum is housed in a closed housing.
  • the ammunition is introduced from the front into the chamber of the drum.
  • Fig. 1 recognizable are essential for the explanation of parts of a weapon not otherwise shown in detail 1 with gun barrel 2 shown.
  • the weapon 1 comprises a drum 3, which is characterized in this embodiment in that it has a closed housing 4.
  • Fig. 2 Behind the drum 3 is completed by a preferably housing own lid or shock bottom. 6
  • the drum 3 beio circumferentially a drum circuit in the form of a guide cam 20 and is rotated by a slide switch 7.
  • the special feature in the preferred embodiment in this embodiment is that the drum circuit or the guide curve 20 is divided.
  • the slide switch 7 two cams 8, 9, wherein the rear cam 8 is mounted vertically movable, preferably resiliently.
  • Connected to the slide switch 7 is a connecting rod 10th
  • FIG. Fig. 2 a further front of the gun barrel 2 integrated and divided into two levels slide 11 with two upper cams 11 a, 11 b and two lower cams 11 c, 11 d connected to the upper cam 11 a and the lower control cam 11 c with the connecting rod 10 of the slide valve 7 and the control cams 11 b, 11 d with a connecting rod 13 of a feed slide 14 (FIG. Fig. 2 ) work together for the ammunition 21.
  • the cams 11 a and 11 c and 11 b and 11 d have a comparable with a hockey stick curve guide and complement each other functionally.
  • the upper level of the slider 11 is movable. A plan view of this is the Fig. 2 removable.
  • the process of loading or supplying the ammunition 21 of the weapon 1 should be illustrated.
  • the weapon 1 is shown here as a self-propelled weapon (gas pressure), another type of drive (driven externally) can also be used.
  • a gas piston 22 (alternatively also third-party drive possible), which is previously in its starting position ( Fig. 3a ) located upper level of the slider 11 to the lower level of the slide 11 ( Fig. 3b ).
  • the control cam 11a moves along the connecting rod 10, while the connecting rod 10 itself stops.
  • the connecting rod 13 is moved by the control cam 11 b and thus also the Zuglassschieber 14.
  • the connecting rod 10 and the connecting rod 13 the reversal point U in their upper cams 11 a, 11 b ( Fig. 3c ), the ammunition 21 is supplied. Now act the lower, fixed cams 11c, 11d.
  • the process repeats to reload and trigger.
  • the drum circuit 20 is provided as a split drum cam. This allows the shortening of the drum 3 on the cartridge length. This embodiment is shown in more detail in FIG Fig. 4 , from this both versions are recognizable.
  • the rear resilient cam 8 is in the starting position (no cartridge 21 supplied) in engagement with the rear guide cam 20.1, the front cam 9 is not yet.
  • the slide switch 7 By moving the slide switch 7 (by connecting rod 10), the cam 8 is guided along this guide curve 20.1. Even before the cam 8 emerges from this, the second cam 9 comes into engagement with the front guide curve 20.2.
  • the movement of the slide valve 8 is now defined by the design of the front guide curve 20.2. In this is for Tot Vietnameseverlagerung and avoiding disturbances a so-called manual shift curve H in the form of a slope involved, whereby no dead center can be caused. So that the rear cam 8 is not out of its guide curve 20.1 in the reversal of movement can break out, a lateral increase in the guide curve 20.1 is provided.
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view in section AA Fig. 1 , represented in Fig. 6 is shown partially enlarged and show advantageous connections to the weapon 1.
  • Z is the feed position
  • S is the shot position
  • A is the ejection position.
  • a magazine 16 stores the ammunition 21 to be supplied.
  • This embodiment does not require a gradual feeding of the ammunition 21 into the firing position, but alternatively a control cam can be integrated between the cartridge feed and the magazine drive, by means of which a clocked feed can be realized.
  • Fig. 7 shows in a preferred embodiment, the inclusion of a spiral magazine 16 ', which acts in opposite directions to the drum 3 causes a torque balance.
