Definitions

  • the technological field of the invention relates to the ejection of cases and / or links from at least one (or a combination of) chain (s) or band (s) of ammunition characterized by a specific caliber, to namely that ranging from small to medium caliber, the small caliber being associated with a secondary weapon (called “machine gun” or “coax”) while the medium caliber is related to a main weapon (called “barrel”).
  • the ejection generally takes place after firing from the inside to the outside of a turret mounted on any armored vehicle, through a whole series of structures having specific geometric and mechanical characteristics.
  • sequence of technical operations relating to the ejection of residues of small and / or medium caliber ammunition (s) can be generalized to the combination of two actions: i) the recovery of any material (stones, vegetables, etc.) falling under the effect of gravity in a closed circular structure, such as a pipe, and ii) transporting this material over a mobile surface, such as a carpet, provided with a vibrating device located under the latter in order to partially or totally modify the environmental conditions of the material.

  • the basket is not integrated into the hull of the turret. It is thus completely absent from this enclosure given that the manipulations linked to the operation of the turret are carried out directly from inside the armored vehicle itself by a member of the crew. This has the consequence that the commander and the shooter are not installed at the level of the basket but well inside the vehicle while the ejection system remains placed in the same place. In other words, the positioning and operation of the ejection system are independent of the number of people present inside the turret.

Now, as the chute 26 itself has a specific angular deviation with respect to the frame 17 of the shell 18 of the turret 9, the maximum angular difference in absolute value is between 1 ° and 90 °. If this value is much too low to promote the ejection of the residues under the effect of gravity, only the motor 29 comes into action to cause and accelerate the fall thereof.
