Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a linear breech rifle.
  • FR-A-3,043,767 discloses a rifle comprising a barrel, a breech, which is movable in translation relative to the barrel and which comprises a bolt head adapted to be engaged inside an end of the barrel and a locking mechanism of the bolt head inside the barrel.
  • the locking mechanism comprises tilting segments, which are arranged in a circle, contiguous to each other, and which are each movable between an unlocked position, where they do not oppose the disengagement of the bolt head out of the barrel , and a locked position, where they oppose the withdrawal of the bolt head out of the barrel.
  • a sleeve slidably mounted around the bolt head, is used to tilt the rocking segments from their unlocked position to their locked position, and vice versa.
  • the movement of the sleeve is controlled by a lever, operable by the user.
  • This type of rifle is qualified rifle linear breech (or linear reset), in that it must move the breech in translation to recharge.
  • a rifle also includes a striker, the function of which is to drive the primer of the cartridge under the effect of an elastic force exerted by a spring.
  • the trigger of the spring is controlled by a trigger, which tilts when the user presses the trigger.
  • the sequencing during a shot is as follows. First, the user moves the breech away from the barrel to be able to load a munition (cartridge) inside the chamber. Then, the user tilts the lever towards him to arm the striker, that is to say compress the spring of the firing pin. During this step, the body of the striker is driven by the lever backwards and clings to a notch formed on the trigger. The trigger then holds the firing pin in position and the firing pin spring is compressed. Then, the user advances the breech towards the barrel and brings the breech head inside the barrel. The user can then lock the displacement of the bolt head by pivoting the lever. Once the bolt head is locked, the user can pull by pulling the trigger through the trigger tail.
  • the striker is held in the armed position by the action of the trigger.
  • the striker is released and is pushed forward by the force of the spring.
  • the striker drives the primer of the cartridge and the shot can leave even if the head of the breech is not completely locked, which is of course unacceptable.
  • the invention intends to remedy more particularly by proposing a new type of rifle, with which the trigger is inactive until the bolt head is completely locked inside the barrel.
  • the invention relates to a rifle with linear breech, comprising a barrel, the breech, which is movable in translation relative to the barrel and which comprises a bolt head adapted to be engaged inside a barrel end , the breech head internally housing a striker resiliently loaded by a spring, a trigger for holding the striker, a locking mechanism, for selectively locking the breech head in a configuration engaged within the barrel, this mechanism comprising a lever movable between an unlocked position and a locked position.
  • the movement of the lever between the unlocked position and the locked position comprises a first section, along which the lever opposes the release of the firing pin under the force of the spring and pushes the firing pin into a configuration where the trigger no longer cooperates with the striker, and a second section, along which the striker is recalled in a configuration where it is able to cooperate with the trigger and where the lever, then in the locked position, no longer opposes the release of the striker .
  • the firing pin is released from the trigger and is held in the armed position by the action of the lever alone.
  • the lever prevents the release of the firing pin.
  • the figure 1 represents a breech 2 of rifle.
  • the breech 2 is mounted in translation on a slide 4 fixed on the body of the rifle, near the butt.
  • the yoke 2 is thus movable in translation along an axis X2 substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the rifle (not shown).
  • the rifle comprises a barrel (not shown), the bolt being movable in translation relative to the barrel.
  • the yoke 2 comprises a bolt head 6 adapted to be engaged inside an end of the barrel.
  • the breech head 6 internally houses a firing pin 8, which is shown alone at figure 2 and which is resiliently loaded by a spring (not shown), commonly known as a firing pin spring.
  • the striker 8 is movable in translation along an axis parallel to the axis X2 of displacement of the cylinder head 2. Typically, during a firing, the firing pin 8 is projected forwardly under the force of the firing pin spring to come in the leader of a cartridge (not shown) housed in a barrel chamber.
  • the firing pin 8 comprises lateral slots 82 of translation guide along the axis X2.
  • the forward direction means a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rifle and oriented towards the direction of fire, and the rear direction defines a completely opposite direction, facing the shooter.
  • the rifle also includes a trigger 12 for maintaining the firing pin 8.
  • the trigger 12 is designed to maintain the striker 8 in the armed position, with the compressed striker spring, as long as the shooter did not press the trigger tail.
  • the rifle comprises another spring 13, shown schematically in FIG. figure 7 only, to keep the trigger 12 in a position where it is adapted to engage with the striker 8.
  • the trigger 12 comprises a hook-shaped end 120, more commonly known as a trigger, which is designed to come into contact with the striker 12. housed in a notch 84 of the striker 8, to hold the firing pin 8 back.
  • the rifle comprises a locking mechanism, for selectively locking the bolt head 6 in a configuration engaged inside the barrel, this mechanism comprising a lever 14, which is represented alone in the figure 3 and which is movable between an unlocked position, represented for example in the figure 7 , and a locked position, represented for example in the figure 13 .
  • the axis of rotation of the lever is perpendicular to the axis of movement of the firing pin 8 (and also to the axis X2 of displacement of the yoke 2).
  • the locking mechanism comprises tilting segments 16 arranged in a circle, contiguous to each other. These segments 16 are housed in a cavity defined in the barrel, at the front of the cartridge receiving chamber. The segments 16 are each movable between an unlocked position, represented for example at the figure 9 , where they do not oppose the disengagement of the bolt head 6 from the barrel, and a locked position, represented for example in the figure 13 , where they oppose the withdrawal of the bolt head 6 out of the barrel. All details concerning the structure and operation of the locking mechanism are described in the publication FR 3 043 767 .
  • the locking mechanism comprises a member 18 for tilting the rocking segments 16 from their unlocked position to their locked position, and vice versa.
  • this member 18 is a sleeve slidably mounted around the bolt head 6.
  • the displacement of the sleeve 18 is controlled by the action of the lever 14.
  • the lever when the lever is in the unlocked position, the sleeve 18 is advanced and keeps the segments 16 in their unlocked configuration.
  • the sleeve 18 moves back (see the arrows F5 at the figure 13 ) and push the segments 16 into their locked configuration, as represented by the arrow F6 at the figure 13 .
  • a firing sequence (step by step) is described below with reference to Figures 4 to 13 especially.
  • the shooter pivots the lever 14 backwards, that is to say in the direction of the arrow F2 at the figure 4 , to arm the striker 8, that is to say to compress the striker spring. More precisely, the shooter pivots the lever 14 from the locked position, where it extends substantially perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the rifle, to the unlocked position, where it extends inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the rifle. During this step, the body of the lever 14, which bears the reference 140, pushes the striker 8 rearwardly. The striker spring is then compressed.
  • the body of the lever 140 is housed inside a protective envelope of the cylinder head 2.
  • the striker 8 is guided in its movement along the axis X2 by fixed pins 10, which are respectively engaged in the slots 82 of the firing pin 8.
  • the striker 8 When the lever 14 reaches the end of the stroke, typically in the configuration of the figure 7 , the striker 8 is hooked, or snap, automatically on the trigger 12.
  • the striker 8 pushes the trigger slightly downwards, against the elastic force exerted by the spring 13, for pass the salient hook of the trigger 12 and the trigger automatically returns under the biasing force of its spring in a position where it comes into engagement with the striker 8.
  • the end 120 of the trigger 12 clings to the firing pin 8, more precisely at the notch 84 of the striker 8.
  • the striker 8 is then held back in a so-called armed position. We are then in the configuration of the figure 7 .
  • the shooter moves the bolt 2 away from the barrel, as represented by the arrow F1 at the figure 1 .
  • the shooter can then optionally insert a cartridge inside the chamber of the barrel, that is to say chamber a cartridge.
  • the shooter moves the bolt 2 forward, to insert the bolt head 6 inside the barrel. We are then in the configuration of the figure 9 .
  • the shooter must then lock the bolt head 6 inside the barrel, to avoid the recoil of the bolt during firing. To do this, the shooter toggles the lever 14 from the unlocked position to the locked position, that is to say in the direction of the arrow F3 to the figure 11 .
  • the stroke of the lever 14 between the unlocked position and the locked position comprises a first section, defined between the configuration of the figure 8 and the configuration of the figure 14 , along which the lever 14 opposes the release of the firing pin 8 under the force of the firing pin spring and pushes the striker 8 in a configuration where the trigger 12 no longer cooperates with the firing pin 8.
  • the lever 14 comprises a mechanical member 142, visible in particular at the figure 3 , which abuts against a complementary mechanical member 80 of the striker 8 when the lever 14 is in the first section, so as, on the one hand, to oppose the release of the striker 8 under the force of the striker spring and, d on the other hand, to push the striker 8 in a configuration where the trigger 12 no longer cooperates with the firing pin 8.
  • the firing pin 8 is pushed into a configuration where it is released from the trigger 12. This is visible when we look at the closeup of the figure 12 , where we see the presence of a clearance J between the functional surfaces of the trigger 12 and those of the striker 8. This clearance J indicates that the trigger 12 no longer cooperates with the striker 8.
  • the shooter can press the tail of relaxation, without this having any effect.
  • the trigger 12 is completely inactive.
  • the mechanical member 142 of the lever which is formed in the example by a protruding relief, abuts against the complementary mechanical member 80 of the firing pin 8, which makes it possible to retain the striker 8 towards the rear and to prevent that the shot leaves all alone.
  • the member 80 mentioned above is formed by a protruding relief, formed on one side of the striker 8 (see figure 2 ).
  • the mechanical member 142 of the lever and the complementary mechanical member 80 of the striker together form a cam mechanism, making it possible to transform the rotation F3 of the lever 14 into a translation movement F4 of the striker 8.
  • the functional surfaces bodies 142 and 80 that is to say the contact surfaces, are complementary to one another. In particular, these functional surfaces are inclined so as to obtain a wedge effect, which transforms the rotational movement of the lever 14 into a translation movement.
  • the stroke of the lever 14 between the unlocked position and the locked position also comprises a second section, defined between the configuration of the figure 14 and the configuration of the figure 16 , and along which the striker 8 is resiliently biased forward, by the force of the striker spring, in a configuration where it is adapted to cooperate with the trigger 12 and where the lever 14, then in the locked position, does not is opposed more to the release of the firing pin 8.
  • the second section is consecutive to the first section in the path of the lever between the unlocked position and the locked position.
  • the striker 8 is recalled in a configuration where it cooperates with the trigger 12, that is to say in a configuration where the trigger 12 holds the striker in the armed position by snapping.
  • the rifle is then in the configuration of the figure 16 .
  • the bolt head 6 is locked inside the barrel, and the striker 8 is held by the trigger 12.
  • the shooter toggles the trigger 12 in the direction of the arrow F7, which releases the firing pin 8, which is then projected forward under the force of the firing pin spring.
  • the striker 8 then comes to drive the primer of the cartridge mounted inside the barrel, and the shot goes.
  • the mechanical members 142 and 80 may be provided in other forms (notches, bumps, notches, grooves, etc.).
