mix ^ ian n.ni *ιπκ ι Breech mechanism with positionable extractor for ejection of the ammunition casing to one side or the other and gun including it Paul Emile Francois TELLIE * C. 42108 This invention relates to a breech mechanism for a gun and a gun including such a mechanism.
The breech mechanism according to theinvention is ^ particularly, though not exclusively, suitable for use in small arms weapons.
In most modern portable weapons such as small arms, a spent ammunition casing is ejected to the right (following firing of a projectile from the casirg) with respect to an observer placed behind the weapon and. facing the target.
V/hile this arrangement is suitable for a right-handed marksman, it can bo unfavourable for a left-handed marksman as there is a risk of the ejected casing hitting him and/or at least distracting him.
■ It has already been proposed to produce firearms in which the position of the ejector changes. Such a firearm is described, for example, in British Patent Specification 579 113 and comprises a right-handed and left-handed breech-block and extractor, and an ejector usable in conjunction with either of the above right-or left-handed elements.
It is an object of the invention to provide a breech mechanism for a gun which is capable of bein .ad usted to permit the direction of ejection of a spent ammunition casing to be selected as desired.
According to one aspect of the invention a breech mechanism adapted for mounting in a gun.- comprises an extractor which is engageable with an ammunition casing to effect withdrawal of the casing and to effect ejection of the casing laterally of the gun when the breech menchanism is mounted in , the gun, in which the extractor is positionable in a selected one of a pair of locations provided by the mechanism, one of said locations providin for e ection of a casin to one side of when the extractor is positioned respectively in said^ne or said other location.
The "breech mechanism according to the invention is particularly suitable for use with small arms (though the invention is not limited to such use of the breech mechanism) as, in such weapons , ejection of a casing is necessarily effected on a level with the face of the marksman and, as mentioned above, this is particularly unfavourable with the known weapons for a left-handed marksman. However, the breech mechanism according to the invention can be applied to larger guns than small arms e.g. to heavy automatic weapons.
According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a gun provided with a breech mechanism including an extractor which is engageable with an ammunition casing to effect withdrawal of the casing and to effect ejection of "the casing laterally of the gun , in which the extractor is positionable in a selected one of a pair of locations provided by the mechanism, one of said locations providing for ejection of a casing to . one side of the mechanism and the other of said locations providing for ejection of a casing to the other side of the mechanism when the extractor is positioned respectively in said one or said other location, and a pair of ejector openings provided in the gun and each corresponding to a respective one of said locations whereby, when the extractor is positioned in a given one of said locations, the casing can be ejected laterally of the gun through the ejector opening corresponding to said one location.
The invention will now be described in more detail, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:- ^ : Figure 1 is a front view of a first embodiment of breech mechanism according to the invention; Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 2-2 in Figure 1 and showing the breech mechanism mounted in the breech of a gun¾ Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3-3 in Figure 2 '· Figure is a detail sectional view of a part of the breech mechanism; Figure 5 is a transverse sectional view of another embodiment of breech mechanism according to the invention; Figure 6 is a sectional view taken on the line 6-6 in Figure 5; Figure 7 is a front view, similar to Figure 1, of a further embodiment of breech mechanism according to the invention; Figure 8 is a sectional view taken on the line 8-8 in Figure 7; Figure 9 is a sectional view taken on the line 9-9 in Figure 7; Figure 10 is a front view of a still further embodiment of breech mechanism according to the invention; and Figure 11 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 11-11 in Figure 10.
Referring now to the drawings, there are shown various > embodiments of breech mechanism which are particularly suitable for employment in so-called small arms i.e. portable weapons such as without a crook the invention is not to be considered as limited to such uses of the breech mechanism which may be employed in otherfforms of larger guns including automatically loaded weapons.
Referring first to Figures 1 to - of the drawings, there is shown a breech mechanism comprising a breech member 2 which forms a housing 3 in which is mounted a detachable breech head or plug 4. The head 4 is mounted in the housing 3 in such a way that, under certain circumstances, the head 4 can move axially and can also be rotated relative to the housing 3· However, during normal use of the breech mechanism, the breech head 4 is connected fast to the breech member 2 for movement therewith. To this end, a locking pin 5 is slidably mounted in a radial bore 15 provided in the member 2 and is capable of entering into a selected one of two sockets 14 provided in the head 4.
Depending on the socket 1 selected, the head 4 is connected fast with the member 2 for movement therewith and occupies a predetermined angular setting relative thereto, the member 2 and head 4 together forming a breech block of the mechanism.
In addition to the pair of sockets 14, the head 4 is also formed with an axial bore in which a firing pin 6 is reciprocable , and a longitudinal bore 7 in which a cartridge or casing ejector 8 is slidably mounted, the ejector 8 being permanently biased in an outward direction by means » of a compression spring 9 also housed within the bore » In addition to the ejector 8 which assists the ejection of a spent casing (or cartridge) after, firing a projectile, there .is provided an extractor 10 which i(^ mounted on the head 4·. A return spring 11 is provided for the extractor 10.
The "breech mechanism has a general plane of symmetry Pa and it will be noted from Figure 1 that the extractor 10 is located in a radial plane of symmetry PI which passes through the longitudinal axis of the firing pin 6 and also contains the longitudinal axis of the ejector 8. A further radial plane of symmetry P2 is illustrated in Figure 1 and it will be noted that plane P2 makes the same angle with the vertical axis of symmetry Pa as the angle made between plaiie PI and Pa. Furthermore¾■ the pair of sockets 14· provided in the head are angularly spaced from each other with respect to the longitudinal axis of the firing pin 6 by the same angle as is provided between the planes PI and P2.
As referred to above, the extractor 10 is mounted on the breech head 4· for movement therewith. However, to provide for axial movement of the head relative to the member 2 (upon release of locking pin 5)» the breech member 2 is formed with:a pair of identical longitudinal housings 12 which are disposed symmetrically with respect to the plane of symmetry Pa, one housing 12 being located in the plane PI and the other located in the plane P2* Eaeh housing 12 is shaped so as to receive the extractor 10 and to permit axial movement of the head 4· with the extractor 10 relative to the member 2. In addition to each housing 12 being. capable of receiving the extractor 10, the housings also capable of receiving a detachable closing part or. obturator 13 (see Figure 3)· As shown in Figure 1 to 3, the extractor 10 is located in the housing 12 in the plane PI, whereas the closing part 13 is received in the housing 12 in the plane P2.
As seen in Figure 2, the breech member 2 and the head 4- are mounted for slidable movement in the breech of the weapon within a breech casing 19. Furthermore, the casing 19 is formed with a symmetrically arranged pair of ejector openings through which a spent, casing can be ejected, one opening corresponding to one direction of ejection from the weapon and the other corresponding to an opposite direction of ejection. In Figure 2, one ejector opening 20 is shown and a further ejector opening (shown in dashed lines) is provided in the casing 19 symmetrically of the opening 20 with respect to the plane of symmetry Pa.
. The breech member 2 and head 4 are shown in Figure 2 in a position suitable for firing a projectile from the weapon. To this end, the casing 16 of a piece of ammunition e.g. a bullet, cartridge or shell, is received in a firing chamber of the barrel 17 with the breech head or plug 4-pressed against the seating of the casing 16. The extractor 10 is shown gripping a flange 16a of the casing 16, the firing pin 6 is located in engagement with the seating ready to carry out a firing operation, and the spring-pressed ejector 8 also is urged into engagement with the seating. > Following axial movement of the firing pin 6 to fire a projectile from the casing 16, the breech member^2 and the head 4- are withdrawn in the direction of the aL-.-ow 18 and, by virtue of the engagement of the extractor 10 with the flange 16a of the casing 16, the casing 16 also is withdrawn. During withdrawal of the casing 16, it will be evident that the ejector 8 applies a turning moment on the casing 16 tending to cause the casing 16 to pivot about the region of engagement of a claw end of the extractor 10 with the flange 16a. Furthermore, when the casing is withdrawn sufficiently that its free end is no longer located within the bore, of the barrel 17, this free end will . pivot about the extractor 10 until it comes into engagement with the adjacent side wall of the casing 19 (the left hand inner edge as seen in Figure 2.) During still further withdrawal movement, the ejector 8 will still apply a turning moment to the casing 16 whereby the casing 16" is ejected through ejector opening 20 when the casing comes into register with the opening. A further casing can then be loaded into the bore of the barrel 1? either manually, or automatically for small arms and for larger weapons and the process repeated.
It will be .apparent that the breech mechanism illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 is shown arranged in a position to provide for ejection of a spent casing to the right with respect to the marksman firing the weapon and this will be satisfactory when the marksman is right-handed.
However, when a left-handed marksman wishes to operate the » weapon, the breech mechanism can be adjusted so as to provide for ejection of a spent casing to the left respect to the (left handed) marksman. To provide leftwards ejection of the casing, it is necessary to remove the extractor 10 from the housing in pls e- PI and to mount it in the housing 12 in the plane P2. To this end, it is necessary first to withdraw the locking pin 5 whereby the head 4 can carry out axial movement (in a direction opposite to the arrow 18) relative to the member 2, followed by clockwise pivoting (with respect to Figure 1) so as to bring the extractor 10 into register with the extension of the other housing 12. Further, the closing part 13 can now, or previously, be withdrawn from the other housing 12 so that the other housing 12 is able to receive the extracto 10.
The housing whic previously received the extractor 10 now receives the closing part 13 and then the head 4 can be moved axially in the direction of the arrow 18 until it again takes up the axial position relative to the member 2 ' shown in Figure 2. The head is then again connected fast with the member 2 by means of the locking pin 5 which is caused to enter the other one of the pair of sockets 14 provided in the head 4.
It will be appreciated that the clockwise pivoting of the head 4 to move the extractor 10 from the plane PI to the plane P2 will also pivot the previously empty socket 1 shown in Figure 1 to the position in the plane Pa whereby it can receive the lower end of the locking pin 5· Furthermore, the clockwise pivoting of the head 4 will also cause clockwise » pivoting of the ejector 8 through a similar angle and to be located in the plane P2 whereby the ejector 8 can apply a turning moment to a casing 16 during withdrawal and to cause leftv/ards ejection of the spent casing through the otfc' r ejector opening (shown in dashed lines).
During rightwards ejection of a spent casing, the casing is ejected through opening 20 and in the direction of the arrow 21 shown in Figure 1, whereas during leftwards ejection the spent cartridge is ejected leftwards and in a direction generally parallel to the plane P2. Thus, the extractor 10 determines the direction of ejection of a spent casing, the hooked engagement of the extractor 10 with the flange 16a of the casing 16 effectively comprising a kind of hinge with the ejector 8 applying a turning moment tending to pivot the casing 16 about this hinge.
The purpose of the closing part 13 is to provide protection for the housing 12 which, does not receive the extractor 10 so as to prevent foreign bodies such as sand, dust, mud' and the like from enterin what would otherwise be an empty housing.
Referring now to Figure 4- of the drawings, there is illustrated one convenient method for extracting the locking pin 5 from the particular socket 1 in which it is located. To this end, the upper end of the locking pin .5 is provided with a shoulder 5a which is conveniently constructed and arranged in relation to the flange 16a provided on the seating of the casing 16 that the casing may be employed as shown to effect withdrawal of the locking pin 5· Thus, this provides for easy adjustment of the breech mechanism without the necessity to provide a special tool as it is assumed that a:"marksman will always have a ready supply of aummunition.
Referring now to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 5 and 6, parts corresponding with the previous embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals and need not be described again, In this embodiment, the breech. head 4 is formed with two recesses 22 which have radial planes of symmetry coincident with the planes PI and P2 of the housings 12 of Figure 1 provided in the breech member 2.
Each recess 22 is capable of receiving the extractor 10 which is of the detachable type and is also capable of receiving the closing part 13. However, in place of the pair of sockets 1 provided in the head of the first embodiment, the breech head in this embodiment ^is formed only with a single socket 23 which receives the lower .end of the locking pin 5· Thus, in this embodiment, the breech head 4 is normally connected fast to the breech member 2 for movement therewith, but can be displaced axially relative to the breech member 2 upon withdrawal of the locking pin 5· As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the breech mechanism is arranged in the position suitable for rightwards ejection of a spent casing with respect to a gunner. In order to adjust the mechanism to provide for ejection to the left, it is necessary to withdraw the locking pin 5 and to displace axially the breech head 4 relative to the breech member 2 to such an extent that both the extractor 10 and the closing part 13 can be removed from their respective recesses 22 and interchanged, the breech head 4 then being returned axially to the position shown in Figure 6 and the locking pin 5 again engaging in the socket 23. f^, It will be noted from Figure 6 that the ejector 8 is arranged in the vertical plane of symmetry of the mechanism which also passes through the firing pin, whereas the ejector 8 is always located in a plane passing through the firing pin 6 and containing the extractor. 10 in the previous embodiments (for both positions of the extractor lOX Thus, in this embodiment, it is the position of the extractor 10 which determines, by itself, the direction of ejection of a spent casing from the mechanism.
Referring now to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 7 to 9 of the drawings, parts corresponding with the previous embodiments are designated by the same reference numerals and need not be described further. This embodiment is similar to the embodiment of Figures 5 and 6 in that the direction of ejection can be altered by interchaning the position occupied by the extractor 10 and closing part 13, this being effected without any rotation of the breech head 4 in the embodiment of Figures 5 and 6. In the embodiment of Figures 7 to 9, there is provided a breech member 2a and a detachable sleeve 4a mounted for axial sliding movement on one end of the breech member 2a, the parts 2a and 4a being equivalent to the parts 2 and 4" of the previous embodiments and together forming a breech block As seen particularly in Figure 8, the sleeve 4a can be connected fast with the breech member 2a by means of the » locking pin 5 which passes through aligned apertures provided in the sleeve 4a and the breech member 2a. The housings - - 12 which are shaped to receive the extractor 10 and the-; closing part 13 are, in this embodiment, provided in the sleeve 4a. In order to adjust the breech mechanism to provide for a desired direction of ejection, it is merely necessary to withdraw the locking pin 5 and to carry out axial spearation of the sleeve a relative to the breech member 2a whereby the extractor 10 and the closing part 13 can be interchanged, the sleeve 4a and breech member 2a then being returned to the position shown in Figure 9· During withdrawal of a spent casing, the extractor 10 effects ejection of the spent casing in similar manner to the embodiment of Figures 5 and 6.
Referring not-/ to the embodiment shown in Figures 1Q and 11, there is shown a breech block 30 which is formed in its lower part with a vertical housing 32 arranged in the vertical plane of ■·· symmetry Pa and adapted to permit the passage therethrough of a fixed, spring biased ejector 33· This breech mechanism, like the other embodiments, is also provided with two identical housings adapted to receive selectively both the extractor and the closing part or obturator. In this embodiment, the housings are provided by identical housings 34 disposed symmetrically with respect to the plane of symmetry Pa and each housing being adapted to receive either an extractor 35 or a closing off part 36.
It will be evident that, the extractor 35 is of the detachable type so that it may be readily detached from the particular housing 34- in which it is presently received (and likewise the closing part 36) and these parts may then be interchanged, this being carried out desirably when the breech block is in . a withdrawn position relative to the bore of the bA?el.
Again, in this embodiment, theposition selected for the extractor 35 will determine the direction of ejection of a spent casing from the gun.
Although not shown, the breech mechanisms of Figures 5 and 6, Figures 7 to 9, and Figures 10 and 11 will be mountable in suitable respective breeches of guns (similar to the breech shown in Figure 2 for the first embodiment of breech mechanisms) provided with openings arranged in correspondence with respective housings for the extractor to permit ejection of spent casings in desired directions.
It will be evident that all of the embodiments of the invention provide a breech mechanism adapted for mounting in a gun and having an extractor which is poaitionable in a selected one of a pair of locations ' provided by the mechanism, one of the locations providing for ejection of a casing to one side of the nechanism and the other of the locations providing for ejection of a casing to the other side of the mechanism when 'the extractor is positioned respectively in said one or said other location.
