Abstract

Improved turret for toy tanks, which comprises the achievement of three effects: one of them rotating, another of ascent and descent of the cannons and a third of reciprocal recoil of each cannon, when making the shots, all these simultaneous effects, characterized by the arrangement of said turret on a turntable with respect to the body of the tank, from which emerges a crankshaft that is to be housed inside a slit slot arranged in a horizontal plate, in such a way that the rotational movements thereof are they will turn in oscillations of the turret left and right, with respect to the horizontal plane, achieving the other effects by virtue of a pinion that emerges from the box of mechanisms of the tank and that, at certain intervals of time, undertakes a vertiginous turn, which it is transmitted to a cogged drive wheel of a long axis, which outcrops to the outside of the turret mechanism box, bending and configuring a crankshaft to be housed inside a collision groove, longitudinally arranged in the center of an arm that is attached to the support platform of the guns, which, in turn, is articulated to the box mechanisms of the turret with possibilities of tilting on a vertical axis, achieving with all this the effect of raising and lowering of said barrels, while, in the same axis in which the said toothed ring is located, also appears a toothed wheel which attacks a pinion located on an upper shaft and joined to a new gear wheel, which engages, in turn, another upper pinion, located in the center of a long axis that emerges at both ends to the outside of the box mechanisms of the turret, bending to configure two new crankshafts extreme antagonistic folds, which when turning vertiginously, stumble and move alternately to each levers or arms arq they are integral with internal tubular elements existing along the cannons and that, at the rear, have a recovery spring that tends to keep said elements pressed outwards, in such a way that the action of the referred to antagonistic crankshafts on the arched arms, will force these to retract and compress therefore their springs, so that, by being free again and by virtue of the expansive action of the springs, recover their primitive position, thus achieving the effect of simultaneous retraction to the shot.
