Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shutter drive for the linear feeding of an ammunition / cartridge in a chamber of a gun barrel, wherein the closure is preferably locked behind, thereby creating a small-sized weapon.
  • a cartridge is presented to a closure and spent with the help of the shutter movement, the cartridge in the gun barrel.
  • the shutter movement is based on downtime, in which the shutter must not be moved.
  • the DE 10 2007 054 470 A proposes for a linear feed of a closure to the gun barrel or cartridge chamber, to incorporate a straight guide in the drive kinematics.
  • a means is guided, which is constructively connected to the closure.
  • the guide groove is in turn by a circumferential forced operation (Backdrop) enclosed, which in turn interprets the necessary downtime of the shutter during the locking, the shot, the unlocking in its front position and the reload after the shutter has been moved to its rear position.
  • a circumferential forced operation (Backdrop) enclosed, which in turn interprets the necessary downtime of the shutter during the locking, the shot, the unlocking in its front position and the reload after the shutter has been moved to its rear position.
  • the drive transmission can be realized by casters, gears or the like, which are driven by a motor, etc. The drive itself continues to run within the downtime of the weapon.
  • the JP 8159991 A deals with a shutter drive, which has a mechanism with two racks and a crank and connecting rod.
  • the long connecting rod is attached to the rear end with the crank. With its front end, it engages via a gear on the one hand to a weapon-proof rack and on the other hand to a arranged on a bolt carrier or closure rack.
  • the invention arises, starting from the JP 615999 A1 , the task to show a small-sized weapon with a simple construction for guiding or moving a shutter.
  • the invention is based on the idea preferably to incorporate a so-called lockable rear closure and the necessary for the closure (zu) management downtime by cams, between which a (control) slider is involved, in turn with the VerInstitut für (or directly with the closure) is functionally connected. It is a so-called weapon-resistant control cam for the shutter feed and a locking curve for locking the shutter.
  • a lockable rear closure has the advantage that, since the closure is rotated behind the ammunition or cartridge inlet, the supply path of the ammunition can be reduced to the chamber.
  • the locking lugs are in this case behind the cartridge inlet.
  • the arms-tight control cam which is preferably integrated below the closure, serves to supply the closure and cooperates with a first, longer connecting rod of a cam disc of the closure drive.
  • a first, longer connecting rod of a cam disc of the closure drive About the longer connecting rod of the closure carrier and thus the shutter in the direction of weft and opposite are moved by a weapon side fixed part.
  • the rotary motion of the cam is converted into a linear motion via a toothed rack.
  • the connecting rod is attached / integrated with its rear end or bolt on / in the cam disc. With its front end (seen in the weft direction), the connecting rod engages via a toothing on the weapon-resistant rack and on the slider of the closure carrier. In this case, a better transmission ratio for the shutter movement can be set.
  • short connecting rod is involved, which engages on the one hand in the slide and on the other hand means, whereby a functional connection between the gun-fixed control cam and the closure support or the closure is provided.
  • there are two roles wherein the lower roller in the arm-fixed control cam and the upper roller engage in a transverse groove in the closure carrier.
  • the zero position (closure of the closure) is integrated, in the locking curve, which is integrated in the closure carrier circumferentially, the downtime of the closure is defined during the firing position.
  • the feeding of the ammunition before the shutter can be varied.
  • the only thing that has to be achieved is that the feed star in turn performs a movement and places a new ammunition in front of the closure and the empty cartridge case back into the belt member.
  • a weapon is characterized in the figures, which is characterized by the straight line of a closure 2.1 or closure carrier 2 for feeding an ammunition 3 into a chamber 4 of a weapon barrel of the weapon 1.
  • the supply of the ammunition 3 is preferably carried out by a feed star 19, the supply of the shutter 2.1 or lock carrier 2 by means integrated in the weapon system scenes and guides, which are necessary for the feeding and downtime in the system.
  • the closure 2.1 is characterized in this embodiment by the fact that this is locked at the rear.
  • Fig. 1 shows the weapon system or the weapon 1 in the locked situation.
  • the closure 2.1 is locked in a (weapon housing) fixed part 20 or at this (locking lugs 21).
  • the closure 2.1 is formed by a rear locking area 2.2 and a closing chamber 2.3.
  • the closure chamber 2.3 is frontally designed so that they engage in the groove of the sleeve bottom 4.1 of the cartridge or ammunition 3 and lead them forward into the chamber 4 and after the shot again take out of the chamber 4 and store it in the feed star 19 ,
  • the Lid réelle to the chamber 4 of the gun barrel 1 itself is achieved through the sleeve of the ammunition 3.
  • the necessary for igniting the ammunition 3 firing pin (not shown in detail) is guided and held within the closure chamber 2.3.
  • Fig. 2 shows in a plan view a drive pulley 5 for the shutter drive, in which a long connecting rod 7 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) and is functionally connected to it.
  • the short connecting rod 8 is held on the one hand in the slide 12 and guided with this.
  • the short connecting rod 8 engages in one above the connecting rod 8 and below the closure carrier 2 (FIG. Fig. 2
  • the short connecting rod 8 is guided in an arm-fixed control cam 14 and takes on displacement of the slider 12 by the long connecting rod 7 due to the engagement in the transverse groove 13, the lock carrier 2 to the rear or forward with.
  • the connecting rod 8 In the rear end position, the so-called dead center of the feed, the connecting rod 8 is pivotable. Thereby, it is possible that the lock carrier 2 in this rear position, when the ammunition 3 is supplied, can stop (downtime), while the system or the slider 12 is still running a small way.
  • the control cam 14 In this end position, the control cam 14 has an end point 14.1, into which the connecting rod 8 is pushed while leaving the transverse groove 13. Due to the pivoting of the slide 12 despite Endpoint 14.1 continue in the control curve 14 below this.
  • This construction realizes the stoppage time of the closure - behind - in which the ammunition loading takes place, since for the rear stoppage of the shutter 2.1, the connecting rod 8 can dodge in the transverse groove 13.
  • the long connecting rod 7 is used to convert the rotational movement of the disc 5 in a linear shutter movement and thus the actual movement of the shutter / shutter carrier 2 in cooperation with a short connecting rod 8.
  • the long connecting rod 7 is with its rear end or bolt on / in the Cam 5 attached / integrated. With its front end (seen in the weft direction), the connecting rod 7 engages via a toothing 9 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) to a weapon-proof rack 10 and the slider 12 of the closure carrier 2 at.
  • This allows a better transmission ratio (for example, 1: 2), the shutter movement itself be set.
  • This has the advantage that the diameter of the crankcase (disc 5) can be made smaller by half than in a 1: 1 transmission. This is associated with a lower weight.
  • Lock carrier 2 and closure 2.1 are structurally connected to one another via a driver 15, which is functionally firmly connected to the closure 2.1.
  • the locking of the closure is realized by another, integrated in the lock carrier 2 locking curve 16 (groove), in which the driver 15 can escape to close.
  • the slider 12 in turn moves the shutter 2.1 via the bolt carrier 2 from the front position - firing position - to a rear - loading position - and vice versa through the fixed part 20 therethrough.
  • the ammunition 3 is placed in the feed star and then taken with the forward movement of the shutter 2.1 (through the closing chamber 2.3) in the chamber 4.
  • the slider 12 moves slightly further into its front end position and the lock carrier 2 over the upper Curve 16 further in a locking position, which is preferably integrated above the closure carrier 2 in order to lock the closure 2.1.
  • locking lugs 21 engage in / at corresponding receptacles of the part 20, the cam 15 runs from the curve 16 in a locking path 16.1 of the locking cam 16.
  • the drive 5 or the disc may for example have an external toothing (not shown in detail) so as to be able to be rotated via a gear driven by a third-party drive or a gear combination.
  • an external toothing not shown in detail
  • alternatives are also possible, such as the direct drive of the disc. 5
