Definitions

  • the cartridges are tubular type cartridges loaded with a load of metal balls and are stored in a magazine tube which acts as a loader mounted on the rifle.
  • the magazine tube comprises a magazine bottom at its front end and an exit at the other end of the carcass side, at which there is a cartridge retainer which is mounted in the carcase and which, after a shot, is moved backwards by the movement of the moving parts or by the state of the sub-guard assembly (disengaging system of the conveyors and the stops controlled by the folding of the dog during the firing) in order to release the exit of the magazine tube to release a new cartridge tube store.
  • the cartridges which are present in the magazine tube are pushed towards the exit at the carcass by means of a push assembly which is mounted in an axially sliding manner in the magazine tube and by means of a spring mounted in the magazine tube between the magazine bottom and the pusher assembly and which is compressed axially so as to exert a force on the pusher assembly towards the carcass.
  • the magazine tube may be equipped with a magazine reducer that limits the cartridge capacity of the magazine.
  • the authorized cartridge capacity depends on the legislation in force, the type of discipline and the length of the cartridges.
  • the power is no longer automatic and induces a problem of operation of the weapon.
  • the invention aims to avoid the aforementioned problems.
  • the contact shocks between the cartridge pusher assembly and the magazine reducer and / or with the magazine bottom can be damped or even absorbed by the shock absorbers provided at the magazine bottom and / or at the bottom of the magazine. level of the cartridge pusher, thereby avoiding violent shocks by the impact of the cartridges in the magazine tube on the cartridge pusher assembly, thus reducing the risk of unwanted deformation of the cartridges and thus the risk of harm rifle operation.
  • the implementation of this invention also has the effect of improving and making reliable the cycle of automatic reloading of the weapon.
  • the implementation of the dampers has the secondary effect of delaying the release of the cartridges out of the magazine tube with an additional delay allowing the automatic reloading system (set bolt - set sub-guard) to stabilize its position, called “ stop-breech ", before receiving the new cartridge from tube store.
  • the magazine tube 4 serves as a charger and it contains the cartridges 3 additional to that in the chamber 7 of the barrel assembly 6.
  • the store tube 4 contains a store bottom 18. This store bottom 18 is secured to the store tube 4.
  • the magazine tube 4 is provided with an axially slidable pusher assembly XX 'in the magazine tube 4 and a magazine spring 20 which is constrained between the magazine bottom 18 and the pusher assembly 19 to exert a permanent force on the pusher assembly 19 and on the cartridges 3 which are present in the magazine tube 4 in the direction of the outlet 5 of the magazine tube 4 at the carcass 2.
  • the magazine spring 20 thus tends to permanently push the cartridge pusher assembly 19 towards the carcass assembly 2.
  • the cartridge pusher assembly 19 is held in the magazine tube 4 by an unrepresented stopper present in the assembly. carcass 2.
  • the magazine spring 20 and the cartridge push assembly 19 are slid inside the magazine tube 4.
  • the store bottom 18 is slidably mounted axially X-X 'vis-à-vis the store tube 4, while remaining integral with the store tube 4.
  • the magazine bottom 18 is formed by a sleeve 21 which is telescopically mounted in the front end 10 of the magazine tube 4 and which comprises a support 22 for the magazine spring 20, this support 22 being realized in the example of the figures by a washer which rests on a shoulder 23 inside the store bottom 18.
  • the stroke of the sleeve vis-à-vis the store tube may be limited by limiting means of this stroke D, for example by providing a notch 24 in the store tube 4 which extends in the axial direction XX 'of tube 4 from a distance of the front end 10 of the magazine tube 4 and providing a tooth 25 which is on the outer surface of the sleeve 21 of the magazine bottom 18 and which is guided in the axial direction XX 'in the notch 24.
  • the assembly nut 11 is provided with a damper 26 which can dampen shocks exerted on the magazine bottom 18 in the axial direction XX 'of the store tube 4, this damper 26 being made for example by a spring which is mounted in the assembly nut 11 which, for this purpose, comprises a recess 27.
  • the assembly nut 11 is tightened so that the magazine bottom 18 moves inwards on its maximum travel D without the spring acting as the damper 26 is completely crushed thus creating a balance in the forces of the springs.
  • the spring of the damper 26 is chosen so as to be a spring which, in its assembled state in the weapon , is more resistant to compression than the magazine spring 20 in its compressed state.
  • the gearbox 33 is in the form of a rod which is secured to the magazine bottom 18 and which extends axially in the magazine tube 4 from the magazine bottom 18 towards the pusher assembly cartridge 19.
  • the figure 11 corresponds to a position denominated “maximum recoil” and represents the moment when the loaded cartridges 3 in the tube magazine 4 have reached the “maximum play” with the cartridge retainer 17. This movement is limited by the contact between the cartridge pusher assembly 19 and the store reducer rod 33.
  • the moving breech assembly 15 is unlocked from the barrel assembly 6 and begins its opening.
  • the empty cartridge 3 chambered is then being extracted.
  • the moving breech assembly 15 continues its course toward the rear of the carcass assembly 2 and allows the ejection of the empty cartridge 3 pulled out which is extracted from the chamber of the barrel 7.
  • the invention relates to a conventional rifle without mass of inertia separated from the cartridge pusher assembly, intended to reduce the recoil shock on the shoulder of the shooter as is the case of the patent US 3,650,060 .
