Description
Cette invention concerne des armes à feu semi-automatiques perfectionnées, spécialement des systèmes de prise de gaz de tels fusils.This invention relates to improved semi-automatic firearms, especially gas-taking systems for such rifles.
Il est connu que dans les mécanismes de prise de gaz ou à emprunt de gaz, une partie des gaz de propulsion de la cartouche est dérivée du canon de l'arme à travers un orifice appelé prise de gaz vers un ensemble cylindre/piston.It is known that in gas-taking or gas-borrowing mechanisms, part of the propellant gases from the cartridge is derived from the barrel of the weapon through an orifice called gas intake towards a cylinder / piston assembly.
Ce piston, sous la pression des gaz se déplace dans ledit cylindre en communiquant une poussée sur un manchon équipé d'une ou plussieurs tringles qui renvoient vers l'arrière l'ensemble des pièces mobiles qui effectuent les différentes fonctions d'éjection de la douille tirée, le réarmement du système de mise à feu ainsi que l'alimentation dans la chambre du canon d'une cartouche suivante.This piston, under the pressure of the gases moves in said cylinder by communicating a thrust on a sleeve equipped with one or more rods which return backwards all the moving parts which perform the different ejection functions of the sleeve fired, resetting the firing system as well as supplying the barrel with a next cartridge.
Le susdit système comporte un ressort de rappel agissant sur ledit piston afin de le remettre en place pendant les actions dudit ensemble des pièces mobiles.The above system comprises a return spring acting on said piston in order to replace it during the actions of said set of moving parts.
L'invention concerne des perfectionnements à un tel mécanisme de prise de gaz dont l'ensemble des pièces est disposé co-axialement et externe au tube magasin qui contient les cartouches à tirer.The invention relates to improvements to such a gas-taking mechanism in which all the parts are arranged co-axially and external to the magazine tube which contains the cartridges to be drawn.
Ledit mécanisme de prise de gaz comporte également une soupape de régulation ou soupape de surpression maintenue en position par un ressort.The gas takeoff mechanism also includes a control valve or pressure relief valve held in position by a spring.
Cette soupape est destinée à laisser échapper une partie des gaz provenant du canon de l'arme en cas de pression trop importante, par exemple lors du tir de cartouches appelées "Magnum".This valve is intended to let escape a part of the gases coming from the barrel of the weapon in the event of too great pressure, for example during the firing of cartridges called "Magnum".
Cet échappement de gaz, par exemple par un orifice foré dans la paroi latérale dudit cylindre, limite la pression sur ledit piston et évite d'atteindre une trop grande vitesse de déplacement desdites pièces mobiles, ce qui pourrait nuire à la fiabilité de l'arme ou conduire à une usure excessive des pièces en mouvement.This gas escape, for example through a hole drilled in the side wall of said cylinder, limits the pressure on said piston and avoids reaching too high a speed of movement of said moving parts, which could harm the reliability of the weapon. or lead to excessive wear of moving parts.
L'invention vise une prise de gaz de régulation présentant plusieurs caractéristiques nouvelles.The invention relates to a regulating gas intake having several new characteristics.
Une première caractéristique selon l'invention est constituée par le fait que la soupape de surpression est située dans l'ensemble piston, d'où une construction très simple, efficace et compacte.A first characteristic according to the invention is constituted by the fact that the pressure relief valve is located in the piston assembly, hence a very simple, efficient and compact construction.
Une autre caractéristique selon l'invention se trouve dans le fait que pour laisser échapper un excès de pression, la soupape fait un mouvement relatif par rapport au piston et ce mouvement se fait dans le même sens et la même direction que le mouvement actif du piston d'où une réduction de la force de recul.Another characteristic according to the invention is found in the fact that, in order to allow excess pressure to escape, the valve makes a relative movement relative to the piston and this movement takes place in the same direction and the same direction as the active movement of the piston. hence a reduction in the recoil force.
Un fusil de chasse perfectionné selon l'invention comporte un tube magasin autour duquel est disposé un cylindre dont l'intérieur est en communication avec l'intérieur du canon et dans ce cylindre et autour du tube magasin, d'une part, un piston pouvant se déplacer sous l'effet d'une partie des gaz de propulsion et pouvant coopérer avec un manchon pourvu d'une ou plusieurs tringles capables de solliciter l'ensemble des pièces mobiles, et d'autre part, une soupape de régulation ou de surpression, des ressorts étant prévus pour contrôler, le retour du manchon et de la soupape de régulation est caractérisé en ce que la soupape de régulation est située dans l'ensemble piston.An improved hunting rifle according to the invention comprises a magazine tube around which is disposed a cylinder whose interior is in communication with the interior of the barrel and in this cylinder and around the magazine tube, on the one hand, a piston capable of move under the effect of part of the propellant gases and being able to cooperate with a sleeve provided with one or more rods capable of acting on all of the moving parts, and on the other hand, a valve regulating or overpressure, springs being provided to control, the return of the sleeve and the regulating valve is characterized in that the regulating valve is located in the piston assembly.

Le fusil de chasse semi-automatique 1 comme représenté à la figure 1 est substantiellement constitué par le canon 2, la carcasse 3, la crosse 4, le pontet 5 avec la détente 6 et le garde-main 7 incorporant le tube magasin 8.The semi-automatic shotgun 1 as shown in Figure 1 is substantially constituted by the
Autour du tube magasin 8 sont montés, dans le garde-main 7, successivement, un cylindre à gaz 9 fixé au canon 2, incorporant un piston 10 et une soupape de régulation ou de surpression 11, et un manchon 12 en contact avec ledit piston 10 et fixé à une tringle 13 dont l'extrémité libre est en contact avec l'ensemble 14 des pièces mobiles de l'arme.Around the magazine tube 8 are mounted, in the handguard 7, successively, a
D'une manière traditionelle l'intérieur du cylindre 9 est en relation avec l'intérieur du canon 2 par des orifices co-axiaux, respectivement 15 et 16.Traditionally, the interior of the
Le manchon 12 est en permanence poussé contre le piston 10 par un ressort de rappel 17.The
Selon l'invention le piston 10 est substantiellement constitué par une première tubulure 18 présentant vers l'extrémité avant une partie de moindre diamètre 19 dans laquelle est réalisé un canal circulaire 20 logeant deux joints toriques, respectivement 21-22, formant élément de guidage du piston 10 dans l'alésage 23 du cylindre 9 et par une deuxième tubulure 24 d'un diamètre plus grand dont l'extrémité arrière comporte une partie filetée 25 avec laquelle co-opère une bague filetée 26.According to the invention the
La tubulure 24 constitue par rapport à la tubulure 18 un rebord 27 pouvant coopérer avec l'extrémité arrière 28 du cylindre 9 et cette tubulure 24 présente encore des trous d'évacuation 29, situés à l'avant de cette tubulure 24.The
La soupape de régulation ou de surpression 11 laquelle est disposée co-axialement dans l'ensemble piston 10, est constituée par une tubulure 30 présentant sur la surface extérieure des cannelures longitudinales 31, cette tubulure 30 étant guidée par sa partie avant de moindre diamètre 32 dans l'alésage 33 de la tubulure 19 du piston 10, par la surface extérieure des cannelures 31 dans l'alésage 34 de ladite tubulure 18, par des joints toriques 35-36 logés dans une cavité circulaire 37 dans la tubulure 30 sur le tube magasin 8 et par une bague d'appui 38 pout le ressort 42 fixé sur l'extrémité arrière de la tubulure 30 dans l'alésage 39 de la tubulure 24 du piston 10.The regulation or
La tubulure 30 présente encore une butée 40 pouvant coopérer avec une surface circulaire 41 du piston 10 sous l'influence d'un ressort de rappel 42 logé dans la tubulure 24 du piston 10 entre la bague d'appui 38 prenant appui sur la partie arrière de la tubulure 30 de la soupape 11 et ledit anneau 26 fixé dans la tubulure 24 du piston 10.The
L'effort excercé par le ressort 42 sur la soupape 11 est réglable au moyen de l'anneau 26 pouvant être déplacé par rapport à la tubulure 24 du piston 10.The force exerted by the
Le fonctionnement du mécanisme selon l'invention est très simple et comme suit.The operation of the mechanism according to the invention is very simple and as follows.
D'une manière traditionnelle, une partie des gaz de propulsion de la cartouche est dérivée du canon 2 à travers les orifices 15-16 vers le piston 10 provoquant ainsi le déplacement de ce dernier avec comme effet une poussée sur le manchon 12 et ainsi sur le tringle 13 qui agit ensuite avec son extrémité libre sur l'ensemble des pièces mobiles 14 qui effectuent de la manière connue en soi, les différentes fonctions d'éjection de la douille tirée, le réarmement du système de mise à feu et l'alimentation dans la chambre du canon de la cartouche suivante, après quoi, par l'intermédiaire du ressort de rappel 17 le piston 10 sera remis en place.Traditionally, part of the propellant gas from the cartridge is derived from the
Lors du tir de cartouches faibles, le ressort 42 est taré de façon à maintenir la soupape de régulation ou de surpression 11 contre la paroi 41. Des lors, les gaz de propulsion arrivant dans la cavité 43 du cylindre 9 agissent sur les surfaces avant à la fois du piston 10 et de la soupape 11. Ils provoquent ainsi la susdite commande des pièces mobiles 14. Cette situation est illustrée à la figure 4.When firing weak cartridges, the
Lors du tir de cartouches dites "Magnum", une partie des gaz provenant du canon agit d'une part, sur le piston 10 et, d'autre part, sur la soupape 11 et la pression sur le ressort 42 étant plus forte que lors du tir de cartouches faibles on obtient non seulement un déplacement axial du piston 10 provoquant la commande des pièces mobiles 14 mais également un mouvement relatif axial de la soupape 11 par rapport au piston 10, d'une telle manière qu'une partie des gaz provenant du canon 2 peut échapper par les trous d'évacuation 29 prévus dans la tubulure 24 du piston 10. Cette situation est illustré à la figure 5.When firing cartridges called "Magnum", part of the gas from the barrel acts on the one hand, on the
Grâce à l'échappement d'une partie des gaz par les trous 29 on réduit les écarts de pression sur le piston 10 ce qui favorise la constance de la vitesse de déplacement des pièces mobiles 14 et évite les vitesses de déplacement excessives qui pourraient nuire à la fiabilité de l'arme ou conduire à une usure excessive des pièces en mouvement.Thanks to the escape of part of the gases through the
Le fonctionnement du fusil de chasse semi-automatique étant tout à fait semblable au fonctionnement des fusils existants, le fusil selon l'invention présente comme avantages une étanchéité améliorée; une construction simple, éfficace et compacte, et un mouvement du piston 10 et de la soupape 11 dans le même sens et la même direction, d'où une réduction de la force de recul.The operation of the semi-automatic shotgun being quite similar to the operation of existing rifles, the rifle according to the invention has the advantages of improved sealing; a construction simple, efficient and compact, and a movement of the
Il est évident que l'invention n'est nullement limitée à l'exemple décrit ci-avant et illustré dans les dessins mais que des modifications peuvent être apportées à cet exemple, notamment en fonction de la nature et de la morphologie de l'arme envisagée, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.It is obvious that the invention is in no way limited to the example described above and illustrated in the drawings, but that modifications can be made to this example, in particular depending on the nature and the morphology of the weapon. envisaged, without departing from the scope of the invention.
C'est ainsi, qu'entre autres, les éléments d'étanchéité, notamment les joints toriques peuvent être remplacés par d'autres systèmes d'étanchéité, par exemple des cannelures; que l'ensemble cylindre/piston/soupape peut se situer soit, comme décrit ci-avant en périphérie du type magasin, soit se situer en avant du tube, soit sur le coté du tube, soit encore à la place d'une partie de ce tube; que le ressort qui maintient la soupape 11 contre le piston 10 peut être différent d'un ressort de compression classique, etc.Thus, among other things, the sealing elements, in particular the O-rings can be replaced by other sealing systems, for example grooves; that the cylinder / piston / valve assembly may be located either, as described above at the periphery of the magazine type, or be located in front of the tube, or on the side of the tube, or even in place of a portion of this tube; that the spring which holds the
