The present invention relates to a bullet loading device incorporating a device for quickly or continuously removing or inserting one or more clips in which multiple bullets are inserted.

Conventional calibers of 20 mm and larger than 20 mm are wrapped by cardboard manufacturers in cardboard tubes and several of these bullets are layered in boxes. Each bullet was also removed from the box by hand, stripped off the cardboard tube and inserted into the bullet loader. This device is a belted link and this type is disclosed in US Pat. No. 173,751 and US Pat. No. 504,516. An alternative to this device is a drum device, a type of which is disclosed in US Pat. No. 2,993,415 and US Pat. No. 3,696,704. As a total of Mr. Getling, the conventional drum device associated with an aircraft weapon system has more than 1000 bullets, so it takes quite a long time to load one weapon only by hand.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention relates to a device for quickly removing a bullet from a transport box and loading it into a weapon loading device of a weapon while using a conventional transport box. Another object of the present invention is to have a reverse function of inserting a casing and a bullet into a clip. The present invention relates to providing a device. A feature of the present invention is a clip stripper / loader for removing a bullet from a clip at a uniform speed and inserting it into a conveyor at a uniform pitch, with one or more clips fitted with multiple bullets. It relates to a bullet loading device composed of. The device also works in reverse, so the conveyor supplies bullets and casings.

In addition, the present invention can be seen in contrast to the strip device of the link belt. This type is disclosed in foreign patent No. 3,311,021, and the type of bullet clip for the pistol is the eighth edition of Stackpole Company, Inc. It was presented by Smith's technique on page 205 of the Small Arms of the World. The end-held clip for the gun is also published in the 1955 US Naval Forces Vol. IV. Published by G.M. Chinn on page 282 of The Machine Gun.

When described in more detail by the accompanying drawings of the present invention.

The bullet clip (10) is to be inserted into the eight bullets 12 by the disk (14) extractor (disk) 14 to protect the bullet primer individually. In fact, the width of the clip is equal to the diameter of the disc of the disc and each bullet is stacked in a cardboard tube (not shown). The bullets are packaged overlapping each of the eight bullet layers in a conventional bullet box (not shown). The cardboard tubes are in close contact with each other to form a honey comb structure, and the eight casings from which the cardboard tubing is removed run out when the clip is pulled out of the box.

The strippy / loader device 220 consists of a housing 22 in which a circulation conveyor device 24 is installed, and this type of conveyor device is disclosed in US Pat. No. 3,429,221. The device consists of a conveyor element 26 having a circulating chain, which is restrained by a single channel type induction device 28 spaced at regular intervals and fixed to the shaft 32, It also has a pair of feet that are driven to each end of the chain by each conveyor sprocket 30 placed through the housing. In practice, the induction furnace 42 having a T-shaped cross section is constructed in the left wall 44 to receive the clip and simultaneously release the clip out of the housing. The surface 46 of the guide device in the right inner wall is configured to fire each bullet carried by the plate 52 to the clip 10.

Guide path 60 is configured on an inner wall 44 adjacent to injection sprocket 38 and is supported to receive the base of the bullet. The shell 62 of the right inner guideway consists of a plate 64 and the casing 66 of the right outer guideway consists of a ridge on the right side of the housing and passes around the injection sprocket 38. Support the bullet carried by it. One suitable receptacle 70, shown in dashed lines, such as the length in which the bullet is slid, is secured to the housing to accommodate unexploded bullets or the like from the injection sprocket. An aperture 72 is configured in the housing to discharge the casings and missiles. In the absence of bullets being struck by the surface 66 of the guideway, these shells are thrown out of the induction furnace 60 via the injection sprocket 38 and through any hole 72 a suitable capture receptacle (not shown). Falls into. The rod 74 is fixed to the housing. A pair of gate members at the outer shaft are placed in the bone 74, each consisting of elongated slots 78. The pair of gate members 80 on the inner side are placed on the rods 74 and each consists of an elongated rod 82. The rod 84 has an end fixed to the pair of slots 86 on the left and right side walls of the housing and penetrates the slots 78 and 82. The handle 88 consists of a rear bore in which the rod 84 is inserted and an intermediate elongated slot overlapping the rod 74. The handle is also composed of clips 90 and 92 which face each other, which clips are fitted to the rods 74 alternately. The clip 90 at the handle in the position shown in FIG. 6 fits into the rod 74 and the gate members 76 and 80 are reversed as shown by the rod 84 in the slot, respectively. Rotate to the true position. The bullet in this position is carried by the strip sprocket 34 to the top of the conveyor 24 as the bullet passes through the sprocket 30. On the other hand, the lower end of the conveyor 24 carries the bullet to the injection sprocket 38. At the outer position of the handle, the clip 92 is fitted to the rod 74, and the gate members 76 and 80 are in their respective slots in a position changed by the rod 84. Is rotated. The casings at the bottom of the conveyor are carried by the conveyor sprocket 34 to the top of the conveyor 24 and the conveyor is driven in reverse reverse rotation so that the casings at the top of the conveyor are carried by the strip sprocket 34 to the clip 10. Reassigned.

The clip 10 is composed of an elongated beam-shaped member composed of a first plate 102 and a second plate 104 and a cross web. The plate 104 is narrower than the plate 102. Multiple plates 108 are spaced apart from plate 102 by respective webs 110. Each plate 108 is overlaid on the web 110 by a uniform margin 112, which is slightly more than the edge 114 of the drive plate 14 of the bullet 12. It is larger than or equal to the diameter of the chipped groove (groove) of the neck 118 is sandwiched over the diameter. The edge 112 is reduced at the middle end by a jade concavity 120. The concave surfaces 120 at opposite positions adjacent to the plate 108 may be referred to as circles having a diameter somewhat larger or smaller than the diameter of the driver grooved neck. The clip is made of a material with some elastic properties, such as polyflopropylene. Therefore, the neck 118 is sandwiched between the concave surfaces facing each other, and then deviates from the concave surface.

The edge portion 122, from which the plate 108 extends from the concave surface 120 to the side surface 124, forms a curved surface. This curvature is formed along the path through which the bullet is transported to the strip sprocket 34, while the neck 118 drives the clip forward by one pitch every revolution. In addition, the leading edge portion 126 of the plate 108 from the concave surface 120 to the side surface 124 is formed as a curved surface. This curvature is formed along the passage through which the bullet is released by the strip sprocket 34 and at the same time the neck 118 is driven in the reverse direction by one pitch every clip.

The clip continues to be fed by the device 20, passing through the center of each plate 108 and web 110 and ending at each end to maintain a constant pitch between the bullets in which the clips are continuous. The clips are symmetrically constructed so that each end is used as a connecting end.

Referring to Figures 4 and 5, each of the axes 32, 36 and 40 are individually coupled to the gear, and the shafts 36 and 40 during the straightening of the clip (shown in Figure 6). ) Is rotated counterclockwise and the shaft 32 is rotated clockwise. On the other hand, the shafts 32, 36 and 40 during reinsertion of the clip are rotated in the reverse direction.
