Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical sector of firearms, and relates more particularly to a semi-automatic weapon regardless of the caliber.
  • a linear repetition firearm with assisted ejection is known to FR3019887 A1 .
  • this type of weapon comprises a mobile assembly mounted in a receiver.
  • This mobile assembly comprises, essentially, a shutter, a latch and a striker, which can be struck on the tilting effect of a dog controlled by a trigger, against a return spring.
  • the arming of the percussion system is performed for this type of semi-automatic type of firearm, by moving the movable assembly that can be performed by recovering the energy resulting from the fired munition. This recovery can be done through an inertial system, a system of borrowing gas under the barrel, or the recoil of the barrel.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these disadvantages in a simple, safe, effective and rational manner.
  • the problem to be solved by the invention is to provide additional security capable of creating a delay in the chambering.
  • the rechambrage becomes a manual and voluntary action.
  • a semi-automatic firearm including means able to recover the energy resulting from the pressure exerted when firing a munition for the purpose of moving a set. mobile against a return spring and comprising a shutter, a latch and a striker cooperating with a dog controlled by a trigger.
  • the locking means are constituted by the dog, which cooperates with the movable assembly, to maintain it at the rear.
  • the unlocking assembly cooperates, when it is actuated manually, with two parts, able to neutralize the percussion system of the weapon, rendering the dog inoperative, said two parts being constituted by a unlocking finger and an unlocking catch.
  • the unlocking notch has a beak cooperating with a boss of the dog to lower it when the unlocking assembly is operated manually.
  • the unlocking assembly is secured to the unlocking finger, by means of a pivot axis that has said assembly, said pivot axis having a polygonal male bearing cooperating with a female shape of complementary shape, formed in the thickness of the unlocking finger.
  • the locking means are constituted by a pivoting fork in communication with the moving assembly.
  • the unlocking assembly cooperates, when it is actuated manually, with a part adapted to neutralize the percussion system of the weapon by disengaging the trigger, said unlocking assembly being constituted by an articulated link pivotally mounted relative to a hinge pin and having a maneuvering finger cooperating with a light to be accessible from the outside of the weapon.
  • the invention applies to any type of semi-automatic type of firearm, whatever the caliber.
  • This type of weapon is well known to a person skilled in the art and may have different embodiments.
  • this type of weapon includes a butt, not shown, a breech box (1), a magazine (2) and a barrel (3).
  • the receiver (1) receives a mobile assembly (4) consisting essentially of a shutter, a lock and a striker which is struck by the tilting of a dog (5) controlled by a trigger (6).
  • the arming of the movable assembly (4) is effected by means able to recover the energy resulting from the pressure exerted when firing a munition (7).
  • This energy can be recovered either by inertia, or by a system of borrowing gas under the barrel, or by recoil of the barrel, as is commonly used in semi-automatic type of firearms. This energy recovery therefore allows the moving assembly (4) to move against a return spring (10).
  • the weapon comprises rear locking means of the movable assembly (4) in the compressed position of the return spring (10).
  • the weapon has an unlocking assembly (12), operable manually, and able to act directly on the dog (5), to release the movable assembly (4) and allow the assisted return of said assembly, for reloading .
  • the unlocking assembly is constituted by an operating lever (12) accessible from the outside of the weapon.
  • the unlocking lever (12) is secured to the dog (5) which is, therefore, the locking means by cooperating with two parts (15) and (15a), able to neutralize the percussion system of the weapon, thereby rendering said dog inoperative (5).
  • these two parts are constituted by an unlocking finger (15), and an unlocking notch (15a).
  • the unlocking lever (12) is secured to the unlocking finger (15), by means of a pivot axis (13), that the lever (12) has, said axis is engaged transversely, figure 8 .
  • this axis (13) has a polygonal male surface, in the form of a square, for example, cooperating with a female cavity of complementary shape formed in the thickness of the unlocking finger (15).
  • the unlocking finger (15) which cooperates in abutment with the release notch (15a), acts on said notch, which has a beak cooperating with a boss of the dog, to bring it down.
  • these locking means are constituted by a pivoting fork (11) in communication with the moving assembly ( Figures 1 and 2 ).
  • the unlocking assembly is constituted by an articulated rod (12) pivotally mounted relative to a hinge pin (13) and has a maneuvering finger cooperating with a light to be accessible from the outside of the weapon.
  • this link cooperates, when manually operated, with a piece (15) adapted to neutralize the percussion system of the weapon by disengaging the trigger.
  • the operation of the weapon is as follows: When firing the weapon, the latter is closed, the dog (5) hits the moving assembly (strikes the striker) (4) for the departure of the ammunition (7).
  • the movable assembly (4) is unlocked following a support exerted on the rod or lever, secured to the dog (5) or the fork (11). This results in a disengagement of the trigger (6), thus prohibiting the percussion system.
