Definitions
- the invention is concerned with a multi-tube weapon, in particular with a single and / or multiple supply of ammunition.
- the US 1,856,022 A concerns a machine gun and handgun with two gun barrels.
- the loading of the ammunition takes place through a slot in the closure or weapon housing.
- the individual projectiles together with propellant charge are connected to each other via connecting tracks and are pushed through a kind of ratchet through the slot in the weapon.
- the band is separated by a knife assembly.
- the bullet comes to rest in a cartridge chamber of the weapon in front of the shutter. Thereafter, the projectile and the closure are transferred to a so-called closed position and ignited the propellant charge by means of a compressed gas.
- the DE 44 23 750 A1 discloses an automatic monotube firearm for endlessly deliverable cartridge ammunition.
- Two counter-rotating drums are used, each with six symmetrically arranged, movably mounted half-chambers. These form between the two drums directly opposite the barrel a cartridge chamber completely closed on the circumference. Simultaneously with the opposite rotation of the drums of the cartridge belt is moved through the respective chamber with. Between the drums will be there a temporarily closed, the combustion gas pressure-resistant cartridge chamber formed.
- Spring elements provide the half-chambers for the purpose of optimal transportability of the cartridge belt in the most favorable pivoting direction prior to engagement in the cartridge belt.
- a firing of the firing pin via a toothing of a control disc and whenever it is ensured that the chamber is completely closed.
- the rotation of the half chambers via gears of a pneumatic gear motor, which is driven by the returned muzzle gases. This results in a somewhat shorter construction and a much higher rate of fire (cadence).
- the WO 2011/046653 A9 deals with a multi-barreled weapon. In each of the two rollers, a gap for the ammunition itself is bounded peripherally.
- a lightweight multi-barrel weapon in which a belt system or the belt members of this system creates or create a replacement cartridge storage and the belt or the respective belt member forms the actual cartridge chamber of the weapon.
- the belt with the ammunition / cartridge contained therein is supported by the weapon or the closure and thereby teilverwaitt.
- the Operaverhuntung is realized by a roller shutter - similar to an open-chamber closure system - with two stars or rollers, a top roller and a holding roller, which in opposite directions rotationally receive the belt member in a firing position. Due to the fact that the belt system forms the replacement cartridge storage, an exact ammunition supply or belt feed must be made into the weapon system.
- the invention has the object to show such.
- the invention is based on the idea for an exact guidance of the ammunition or ammunition belt slots in the stars or in the top roller and the holding roller circumferentially introduce.
- This is assigned an ammunition guide, along which the ammunition belt is guided.
- These are involved a corresponding number of slots in the stars or rollers. The slots allow the stars or rollers to rotate while the guide (s) are themselves held arm-resistant.
- Parts of the roller shutter can be an integral part of the barrel of the multi-tube weapon itself.
- the second star or the holding roller can be decoupled from the barrel bundle.
- a separable connection between the barrel and the star should be provided in the axis of rotation over which the star and the shutter can be rotated with.
- the geometry of the guide is (belt guide) aligned in the region of the firing position in approximately the radius of the tube bundle.
- the guide (s) via the guide (s) the possibility is created to decouple the ammunition or the belt system from the weapon system and / or to couple it again. This is achieved in that in addition to the decoupling or the removal of the star or the roller, the / is not functionally dependent on the barrel bundle, the guide (s) are guided out of the weapon system. Accordingly, / the guide (s) can be moved or adjusted via the weapon-resistant holder.
- This separate supply and the extraction and coupling of the feeders in the weapon system has the advantage that when fired ammunition from ammunition box, etc., fired the ammunition of the other, cooperating with the other supply ammunition box and the empty can be repopulated, without loss of function the weapon. Also, different types of ammunition can be fired.
- a multi-tube weapon system 1 is shown as shown in the DE 10 2010 017 876 A already known and to which reference is hereby made.

Entsprechend der damit verbundenen Anforderung einer exakten Munitionszuführung stellt sich die Erfindung die Aufgabe, eine derartige aufzuzeigen.In accordance with the associated requirement of an exact supply of ammunition, the invention has the object to show such.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestattungen sind in den Unteransprüchen aufgezeigt.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous Ausgestattungen are shown in the subclaims.
Ausgehend von einer Mehrrohrwaffe, die einen so genannten Walzenverschluss - ähnlich eines Offenkammer-Verschlusssystems - mit zwei Sternen umfasst, die gegensinnig drehend das Gurtglied in der Schussposition aufnehmen, liegt der Erfindung die Idee zugrunde, für eine exakte Führung der Munition bzw. des Munitionsgurtes Schlitze in die Sterne bzw. in die Oberwalze und die Haltewalze umfänglich einzubringen. Diesen ist eine Munitionsführung zugeordnet, entlang derer der Munitionsgurt geführt wird. Bevorzugt werden zwei parallel zueinander ausgerichtete Führungen, eine im Bereich des oberen und eine im Bereich des unteren Endes des Munitionsgurtes bzw. -gliedes, damit ein Verkanten des Gurtsystems bzw. der Gurtglieder bei der Zuführung vermieden wird. Diesen sind eine entsprechende Anzahl von Schlitzen in den Sternen bzw. Walzen eingebunden. Die Schlitze ermöglichen, dass die Sterne bzw. Walzen sich drehen können, während die Führung(en) selbst waffenfest gehalten ist/sind.Starting from a multi-tube weapon, which includes a so-called roll closure - similar to an open-chamber closure system - with two stars that receive the belt member in the firing position in opposite directions, the invention is based on the idea for an exact guidance of the ammunition or ammunition belt slots in the stars or in the top roller and the holding roller circumferentially introduce. This is assigned an ammunition guide, along which the ammunition belt is guided. Preferably two parallel aligned guides, one in the region of the upper and one in the region of the lower end of the ammunition belt or member, so that tilting of the belt system or the belt members is avoided in the supply. These are involved a corresponding number of slots in the stars or rollers. The slots allow the stars or rollers to rotate while the guide (s) are themselves held arm-resistant.
Teile des Walzenverschlusses können fester Bestandteil des Laufbündels der Mehrrohrwaffe selbst sein. Alternativ besteht aber auch die Möglichkeit, dass der zweite Stern bzw. die Haltewalze vom Laufbündel entkoppelbar ist. Hier sollte dann eine trennbare Verbindung zwischen dem Laufbündel und dem Stern in der Drehachse vorgesehen werden, über die der Stern als auch der Verschluss mit gedreht werden können.Parts of the roller shutter can be an integral part of the barrel of the multi-tube weapon itself. Alternatively, however, there is also the possibility that the second star or the holding roller can be decoupled from the barrel bundle. Here then a separable connection between the barrel and the star should be provided in the axis of rotation over which the star and the shutter can be rotated with.
Die Geometrie der Führung ist (Gurtführung) im Bereich der Schussposition in etwa dem Radius des Rohrbündels folgend ausgerichtet. Mit Hilfe dieser Führungen erfolgt das Hineinführen des Munitionsgurtes bzw. Munitionsgurtgliedes in die Schussposition sowie das Herausführen aus dieser, wobei sichergestellt ist, dass die Munition sich immer in der Schussposition zum Waffenrohr befindet, aus dem diese verschossen werden soll. Da das Waffensystem dynamisch arbeitet, werden das Gurtglied, welches die Munition in der Schussposition hält, als auch der Verschluss einen geringen Weg oder Winkel zusammen mit dem Laufbündel bzw. dem Lauf mit gedreht, was ja den Vorteil hat, dass ein kontinuierliches Schießen möglich ist, da keine Stillstandzeiten einzuhalten sind. Dieser geringe Weg wiederspiegelt sich auch in der Geometrie der Kurvenführung.The geometry of the guide is (belt guide) aligned in the region of the firing position in approximately the radius of the tube bundle. With the help of these guides, the introduction of the ammunition belt or ammunition belt member into the firing position and the lead out of this, it is ensured that the ammunition is always in the firing position to the gun barrel, from which they are to be fired. Since the weapon system operates dynamically, the belt member which holds the ammunition in the firing position as well as the shutter is also rotated a small distance or angle along with the barrel, which has the advantage of allowing continuous firing , as no downtime must be observed. This small path is also reflected in the geometry of the curve guide.
In Weiterführung ist vorgesehen, dass über die Führung(en) die Möglichkeit geschaffen wird, die Munition bzw. das Gurtsystem vom Waffensystem zu entkoppeln und / oder mit diesem wieder zu verkoppeln. Das wird dadurch erreicht, dass neben dem Entkoppeln bzw. des Herausnehmens des Sternes bzw. der Walze, der / die nicht vom Laufbündel funktional abhängig ist, auch die Führung(en) aus dem Waffensystem geführt werden. Entsprechend ist / sind die Führung(en) über die waffenfeste Halterung verfahr- bzw. verstellbar.In continuation, it is provided that via the guide (s) the possibility is created to decouple the ammunition or the belt system from the weapon system and / or to couple it again. This is achieved in that in addition to the decoupling or the removal of the star or the roller, the / is not functionally dependent on the barrel bundle, the guide (s) are guided out of the weapon system. Accordingly, / the guide (s) can be moved or adjusted via the weapon-resistant holder.
Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, dass nicht nur eine Munitionszuführung in das Waffensystem eingebunden ist, sondern mehrere, wobei die Anzahl der Zuführungen abhängig des Durchmessers bzw. Umfangs des Rohrbündels ist. Bei einer kleineren Waffe wären vier, in 90° zueinander versetzte Zuführungen vorstellbar. Diese können separat zugeschaltet oder entfernt - entkoppelt wie oben beschrieben - oder zeitgleich bedient werden. Dabei kann leicht zeitversetzt aus jeder dieser Schussposition geschossen werden, was die Kadenz erhöht.Furthermore, it is provided that not only an ammunition feeder is integrated into the weapon system, but several, wherein the number of feeders depends on the diameter or circumference of the tube bundle. For a smaller weapon, four feeders offset by 90 ° would be conceivable. These can be switched on separately or removed - decoupled as described above - or operated at the same time. It can easily be shot from time to time from each of these firing position, which increases the cadence.
Diese separate Zuführung sowie das Aus- und Einkoppeln der Zuführungen in das Waffensystem hat den Vorteil, dass bei verschossenem Munitionsvorrat aus einer Munitionsbox etc., die Munition der weiteren, mit der anderen Zuführung zusammenspielende Munitionsbox verschossen und die leere neu bestückt werden kann, ohne Funktionseinbuße der Waffe. Auch können verschiedene Munitionsarten verschossen werden.This separate supply and the extraction and coupling of the feeders in the weapon system has the advantage that when fired ammunition from ammunition box, etc., fired the ammunition of the other, cooperating with the other supply ammunition box and the empty can be repopulated, without loss of function the weapon. Also, different types of ammunition can be fired.
Da das Gurtglied die Funktion einer Patronenkammer übernimmt, die Schalen in den Sternen als auch die Sterne selbst nicht 100 % gleich sein bzw. übereinstimmen, geringe Toleranzen sind damit auch funktional vertretbar.Since the belt member takes over the function of a cartridge chamber, the shells in the stars as well as the stars themselves are not 100% equal or match, small tolerances are therefore functionally acceptable.
Vorgeschlagen wird, für den Transport eines Gurtgliedbandes bzw. der Gurtglieder umfangsseitig Schlitze in den Sternen zur Aufnahme wenigstens einer Führung vorgesehen sind, wobei die Führung derart mit der Waffenseite verbunden ist, dass diese aus dem Schlitz des Sterns, der mit dem Laufbündel direkt zusammenwirkt, herausgenommen und in diesen wieder eingebracht werden kann.It is proposed for the transport of a belt strap or the belt members circumferentially slots are provided in the stars for receiving at least one guide, wherein the guide is so connected to the weapon side, that this from the slot of the star, which interacts directly with the barrel bunch, taken out and can be brought back into these.
