Definitions
- a loading device for amultibarrel weapon comprises at least one magazine adapted to hold a multiplicity of projectiles alignable with respective barrels of the weapon, these barrels being mounted in a block which is provided with guide rails engageable with rollers on the magazine in a position thereof spaced from a rear surface of the block. At least one draw bar in the block can latch onto the magazine for pulling it into contact with that rear face, the magazine being latched in this juxtaposed position by a set of detents.
- the magazine may be initially stored in an upwardly open pit within a foundation, this pit being overhung in the loading position by a mounting on which the weapon may be swung into a vertical attitude above the pit.
- the present invention relates to an ammunition, feeding device for a multibarrel weapon, more particularly for a multibarrel cannon of more than four up to several and hundreds of barrels.
- Conventional ammunition feeders for multibarrel weapons comprise either complex and not very reliable breech blocks or fixed, individually loaded breech blocks similar to those of mortars.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an ammunition feeder mechanism for a multibarrel weapon which overcomes the aforesaid drawbacks.
- An ammunition-feeding device comprises at least one detachable magazine containing the ammunition for introduction into the cannon barrels of the weapon proper to which it is attached.

- FIG. 15 is a similar view of a modified magazine designed for the weapon of FIG. 14.
- FIG. 16 is a fragmentary axial sectional view of the magazine shown in FIG. 15.
- holders for the projectiles are so disposed that the positioning of a common ammunition magazine on the weapon very accurately registers these holders with the weapon barrels which are designed to fire them.
- the holders included in the magazine constitute, at the time of application to the weapon, the fixed breechblock and the firing chamber for the cannon barrel with which each holder is associ ated.
- the magazine is provided at the breechblock side of the cannon barrels with all the electrical and other firing connections required for each round of ammunition.
- FIG. 1 illustrates schematically and in a perspective manner, a multibarrel weapon 37 to which an ammunition magazine in accordance with the invention is to be attached.
- the barrels 1, whose, number, may readily attain the order of a hundred, are arranged side by side and regularly distributed about an axis of symmetry x-'x'.
- the barrels are supported bya block 2 provided, at regular intervals around its circumference, with detents 3 which, as will be seen at a later point in the description,
- the magazine 4 is arranged at the rear of the weapon and is attached thereto by means of a breech ring 5 held in the block 2 by the automatically locking detents 3.
- the assembled weapon is carried on a mounting 40 illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10.
- FIG. 2 illustrates in perspective view the magazine 4 embodying our invention.
- this magazine takes the form of a metal casing 6 subdivided by internal partitions 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 which subdivide a set of tubular projectile holders into group.
- the partitions inside the metal casing insure the rigidity of the magazine so that the holders or loading tubes 100 canregister in an accurate manner with the associated gun barrels.
- FIG. 3 shows more clearly how the loading tubes are located in the casing 6. It will be seen there that the tubes 100 are so distributed in the magazine as to leave a free space 12 around its axis of symmetry, this'corresponding to an identical space in the weapon proper; the function of these central clearances will be described hereinafter.
- the. casing wall 6 is cut away to show how the free space 12 extends along the whole length of the axis of the magazine, and how its loading tubes are arranged.
- the fragmentary enlarged view of FIG. 4 shows the internal partitions 10 and 11, as well as tubes 100 which pass through these partitions and are therefore supported by them.
- guide rollers 15, 16, 17 and 18 which are attached to the metal casing 6 of the magazine and, in a manner described in detail hereinafter, serve to slide it into position on the weapon.
- the casing 6 is closed off at the rear by a solid plate 19 doing duty as the breechblock proper of the weapon whose gun barrels, upon emplacement of the magazine in its proper position, are precisely aligned with the loading tubes 100 in which the projectiles are located.
- This plate 19 carries all the electrical connections required for the firing of each round of ammunition.
- FIG. represents a longitudinal section through a loading tube 100.
- the tube whose axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the weapon and the magazine 4, has a cylindrical forward portion 20 whose diameter is equal to the caliber of the weapon (i.e., to the diameter of barrels 1) and which contains. a projectile 21.
- Forward portion 20 adjoining a cylindrical rear portion 22 having a different diameter, generally larger than the caliber of the weapon, and constituting the firing chamher which contains the powder charge for firing the projectile.
- anelectrical detonator connected by a sealed lead-through to a control circuit 24 which transmits the firing commands, this circuit being wired on and in the plate 19.
- a cover partly shown at 25 protects the electrical wiring.
- the magazine 4 which is inherently mobile and interchangeable, comprises furthermore elements for applying and fixing it tothe weapon.
- the central space 12 which is left around its axis is used to pass a sliding tube of a draw bar 44 (FIG. arranged in the center of the array of gun cannon barrels 7; when the magazine is aligned with the weapon, this bar engages it and places it in contact with the weapon so that the breeching 5 comes into contact with the barrel supporting block 2 as the guide rollers -l8 slide on rails 45 which are provided for this purpose in the weapon as shown in FIGS. 11 and 12.
- the ammunition magazine 4 comprises a number of elements whose presence is absolutely essential for firing.
- FIG. 6 illustrates details of one of the detents 3 which lock the 4 to the block 2 carrying the gun barrels.
- Each detent 3 has a catch 26 which can pivot about a pin 27. The rotation of the catch is caused by a piston 28' whose rod 28 is connected by a pin 29 to the catch 26.
- the catch has a slot 35 which receives the pin 29 to convert the axial motion of the rod 28 into a swing of the catch 26 about its fulcrum 27.
- FIG. 6 the magazine 4 is shown in its locked position.
- the rounded tip 31 of the catch 26 being applied against a beveled rear face of the breech ring 5, by a spring 30 bearing upon the rod 28.
- FIG. 7 shows the relative positions of the magazine 4 and the weapon 1 any load.
- the hole in which it is located has a diameter greater than that of the pin so that the catch 26, in response to the recoil forces, shifts slightly to the rear until its arcuate edge 32 bears directly on a confronting arcuate surface 33 of the supporting body 2, thus relieving the pin 27 of
- hydraulic fluid under'pressure is introduced via a conduit 36 into a cylinder chamber 34 surrounding the piston 28' as shown in FIG. 8.
- the pressurized fluid then raises the rod 28 retracting the catch 26 which pivots about its pin 27 to disengage the coasting face of the breeching 5.
- the empty magazine can then be withdrawn and replaced by a loaded one.
- FIGs. 9 and 10 schematically illustrate the different phases of the operation of fitting a magazine 4 to its associated weapon in accordance without invention. This operation is carried out entirely automatically, exploiting the mobility of the weapon in two mutually orthogonal planes, more particularly the vertical and horizontal planes. We have found it advantageous to dispose the magazine, preparatorily to; loading, at a location where its axis is aligned with the central axis of the upwards pointing weapon.
- the gun 37 has been shown provided with a frame 38 designed to receive the magazine 4.
- the weapon is' carried on its mounting 40 so as to be vertically swingable about an elevational axis 41.
- a fresh magazine 4 is disposed in an upwardly open pit 43, within a foundation or base, which is overhung by the mounting 40.
- Flg. 10 illustrates the position which the weapon occupies when a magazine is to be fitted to it.
- the weapon is arranged vertically above the pit 43 containing the magazine so that its central axis is in line with that of the magazine.
- Draw bar 44 centered on the axis of the weapon, engages the magazine by passing through the axial hole 12 provided for that purpose. This bar picks up the magazine 4 and raises it until it comes into contact with the block 2 against which it is then held and locked by means of the detents 3 as already described.
- the magazine (all FIG. 10) is guided by rollers 15 18 mounted on the sides of its casing 6 (FIG. 3) and engaging the rails 45, visible in FIGS. 11 and 12, which are carried by the block 2.
- the breech ring 5 of the magazine has two openings 48, one circular and the other oval, into which penetrate two pins 47 fixed to the support block 2. These pins ensure that the axes of the various gun barrels register with those of the tubes which contain the rounds of ammunition.
- the draw bar 44 used to pull the magazine against the block 2 is shown in FIGS. 13A-13D. It has stationary outer shell 49, centered on the gun axis and a sliding tube 50 terminating in a piston 51. The two faces of this piston are subjected to the pressures developed by a hydraulic fluid introduced at a (advance) and R (retract) through two parts 52 and 53.
- the end of the moving tube 50 carries a catch 54 which can rotate a quarter of a revolution under the control of a motor 55 whose output shaft 56 can adopt two positions offset from one another by an angle of 90.
- the power used to rotate this motor is hydraulic in the example described, but could equally well be pneumatic or electric.
- the motor shaft 56 has an extrusion in the form of a square-section tube 57. Inside this tube, but rotatively entrained thereby, there slides a rod 58 which terminates in the catch 54.
- the axis about which the catch rotates is centred with reference to tube 50 by a bearing 59.
- the catch 54 whose shape is noncircular, penetrates into the substantially rectangular opening of a socket is fixed to the breechblock 19.
- the catch 54 Once the catch 54 has entered the socket 60 (FIGS. 13A and 13B), and after it has rotated through a quarter of a turn (FIGS. 13C and 13D), the breechblock is secured to the draw bar 44. It merely requires a further rotation of the catch through a quarter of-a turn to release the breechblock.
- the feed mechanism according to our invention can be detached and replaced by an operation automatically executed with the help of elements which form part of the weapon proper and act upon other elements arranged for this purpose on the magazine.
- shape of the magazine and- /or the number of'its ammunition holders may vary.
- the number of magazines arranged in proximity of the weapon depends upon the location where the weapon is mounted and how it is set up.
- the weapon will be set up on a vehicle and the holders of the magazine will be arranged concentrically with the weapon axis when the latter is in a vertical attitude.
- these holders may also be arranged horizontally or at an angle to the horizontal. In this case, when loading takes place, the weapon will be aligned in a corresponding attitude, although this does not affect the basic loading principle.
- the magazine receptacles can be aligned with the weapon by movement in the horizontal plane.
- the firing or high-pressure chambers form part of tubes arranged in the magazine. It is possible, however, to separate the chambers from the magazine and make them integral with the gun barrels themselves.
- FIG. 14 illustrates such an arrangement, the gun barrels 61, 62 being provided at their ends adjacent the support block 2 with high-pressure chambers 63-64 fixed in that block.
- the ammunition then takes a conventional form, that is to say has shell cases containing a powder charge.
- the projectiles are marked 65 and 66 and the corresponding shell cases have been designated 67 and 68.
- the shell cases are fixed by their bases 69 and 70 to a solid component 71 which constitutes the breech block of the weapon. This component is equivalent to the plate 19 of the preceding embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3, for example.
- the assembly of projectiles thus fixed in the breech block 71 is enclosed within a relatively light container 72 constituting the shell of the magazine.
- the assembly of the latter magazine with the weapon proper is effected in the same manner as described earlier.
- the whole round of ammunition enters its corresponding barrel, the breechblock 71 being'locked in position through the fixed block 2 which .is part of the weapon.
- the breechblock 71 comprises all the elements required for firing the ammunition and its profile is such that it enables efficient locking of the magazine to the weapon with the help of detents similar to those marked 3 in FIGS. 1, 6 and 7.
- a magazine of this kind considered in comparison with the loading mechanism of the preceding Figures, presents an appreciable increase in weight since the high-pressure chambers, which are no longer expendable elements, are integral with the weapon proper.
- the weapon at any one time had only one leading mechanism, containing as many rounds of ammunition as there are gun barrels to feed.
- the weapon which may be fired in the form of spaced salvos, it is possible to provide smaller magazines which are adapted to this kind of firing.
- the weapon is equipped with several small draw bars designed to extract the loading magazines from their respective receptacles and apply them to the weapon, this being done in the same manner as described for a single magazine.
- a loading device for a multibarrel weapon provided with a barrel-supporting block comprising:
- a magazine having a front face adapted to be juxtaposed with a rear surface of said block; holding means in said magazine for a multiplicity of projectiles alignable with respective barrels of said weapon upon operative juxtaposition of said front and rear surfaces, said block and said magazine being provided with coacting guide means for.positively aligning said magazine with said block in a spaced-apart position of said front and rear surfaces; drive means on said block engageable with said magazine in said spaced-apart position for drawing said magazine into operative juxtaposition with said block; coacting latch means on said block and said magazine for locking same to each other; and firing means for said projectiles in said magazine, said magazine and said block being provided with channels parallel to said barrels and aligned with each other upon interengagement of said coacting guide means, said drive means comprising at least one draw bar lodged in a channel of said block and extensible into an aligned channel of said magazine for engagement with the latter.
- said magazine comprises a shell and an end plate at the rear of said shell, said holding means and said firing means being disposed on said end plate.
- a device as defined in claim 2 wherein said holding means comprises an array of parallel tubes extending forwardly from said end plate.
- a device as defined in claim 2 wherein said coacting guide means include a set of rollers on the outer surface of said shell and rails on said block extending parallel to said barrels for engagement by said rollers.
- said latch means comprises a plurality of detents peripherally disposed on said block, said magazinev including a shell with a peripheral flange overhung by said detentsupon juxtaposition of said shell with said block, said flange having a back face engageable by said detents upon displacement thereof into a locking position.
- each of said detents comprises a swingable catch with a pivoted rear end and with a front end bearing upon said back face in said locking position, and actuating means for swinging said catch in a plane perpendicular to said back face.
- a device as defined in claim 8 wherein said actuating means comprises a piston articulated to said catch at said front end thereof.
- a loading device for a multibarrel weapon provided with a barrel-supporting block comprising:
- a magazine having a front face adapted to be juxtaposed with a rear surface of said block;
