Abstract

UNA NOVEDOSA INTERCONEXION DE LA MORDAZA (42), LA CUÑA (26) Y EL TIRADOR DE ACCIONAMIENTO (21) EN UNA QUINTA RUEDA (11) FACILITA LA DISPOSICION DE UN INDICADOR (58) EN UN MECANISMO DE BLOQUEO SECUNDARIO QUE ASEGURA ADICIONALMENTE LA SEGURIDAD DEL SISTEMA. EN LA INVENCION, LA MORDAZA (42) VA CONECTADA AL TIRADOR DE ACCIONAMIENTO (21) POR MEDIO DE UNA PALANCA DE SINCRONIZACION GIRATORIA (31) QUE GIRA SEPARANDOSE DE UN PASADOR (41) DE LA MORDAZA (42) DE TAL MODO QUE LA MORDAZA (42) PERMANECE ACOPLADA A LA QUINTA RUEDA (11) HASTA QUE LA CUÑA (26) SE DESACOPLA SUSTANCIALMENTE DE LA MORDAZA (42). EN COOPERACION CON EL MECANISMO DE BLOQUEO PRIMARIO, SE DISPONE UN BLOQUEO SECUNDARIO EN EL EXTREMO DEL TIRADOR DE ACCIONAMIENTO (21) DE TAL MODO QUE UN CONJUNTO DE RETENCION (51) ENGRANA CON UN TOPE (63) EN EL CONJUNTO DE LA QUINTA RUEDA (11) HASTA QUE EL OPERARIO LO DESBLOQUEA. EL CONJUNTO DE RETENCION (51) TIENE ADEMAS UN INDICADOR MECANICO (58) QUE SE EXTIENDE MAS ALLA DEL CONJUNTO DE LA QUINTA RUEDA(11) Y PERMITE AL OPERARIO DETERMINAR SI EL PIVOTE DE ARTICULACION (16) ESTA ENGRANADO Y EL BLOQUEO SECUNDARIO ACTIVADO.
