Definitions

  • the invention relates to a firing and safety stop system. long-range for a small or multi-tube automatic firearm medium caliber, this weapon comprising a body which supports in rotation an assembly rotating around an axis parallel to the direction of fire of the tubes of the weapon, this rotating assembly including the barrels of the weapon and a loading system and firing ammunition for the gun tubes to fire successively an ammunition during each rotation of the rotating assembly.
  • the stop system firing or long-range security essentially has the function of order the immobilization of the rotating assembly of the weapon either at following the voluntary actuation of an external order stop shooting, for example during or at the end of a ammunition burst, either automatically after firing defective ammunition through one of the gun tubes for security reasons.
  • the main object of the invention is to design a system fire stop and safety fire in which immobilization of the rotating assembly of the weapon can be carried out under the best possible conditions taking into account kinetic energy of the rotating assembly of the weapon at the time where the firing stop or fire safety system is activated.
  • the invention proposes a firing stop system and safety kit for a multi-tube automatic firearm small or medium caliber, which is characterized in that it comprises a rotating immobilization system for the rotating assembly of the weapon, this system comprising mounted shock absorbing means coaxially with the rotating assembly of the weapon, a device for control comprising a cylindrical body coaxial and integral in rotation with this rotating assembly and also movable in translation, and means to cause this translational displacement as a result of the detection of a defective round of ammunition or actuation of an external fire stop command, to compress the damping means and absorb the kinetic energy of rotation of the rotating assembly of the weapon, the relaxation of the damping means causing then a rotation in opposite direction of the rotating assembly of the weapon before it stops.
  • the axis of rotation of the rotating assembly is materialized by a central shaft fixed which is extended axially by a rod, one of which end is fixed to the central shaft by means of a hitch, while its other end supports a lock washer.
  • the means shock absorbers consist of two stacks of spring rings respectively housed in two tubes telescopic mounted sliding along the axis of rotation of the rotating assembly.
  • the first telescopic tube has, at one end, a bottom wall crossed by the rod central, the second telescopic tube which is intended for engage, at one end, in the other end open of the first telescopic tube also has a bottom wall crossed by the central rod, so that the spring rings of the first stack are supported respectively on the two bottom walls of the two tubes, while the spring rings of the second stack respectively bear on the wall of bottom of the second telescopic tube and on the washer stop carried by the central rod.
  • the means for cause the body to move in translation cylindrical which allows compression of the means shock absorbers, include a sleeve that surrounds the body cylindrical, connecting means between the sleeve and the cylindrical body on the one hand, drive in rotation the sleeve in synchronism with the cylindrical body and, on the other hand, allow the translational movement of the cylindrical body relative to the sleeve, and a sleeve rotation stop device to cause the displacement in translation of the cylindrical body, this stop device being activated after firing defective ammunition or external control stop shooting.
  • the means of connection between the element which allows the compression of the means shock absorbers and the sleeve are constituted by rollers located on the periphery of the cylindrical body hereinafter referred to as roller carriers and by grooves helical formed in the wall of the sleeve, so that each groove receives a roller.
  • the stop device in rotation of the sleeve comprises a plurality of heels evenly distributed around the periphery of the sleeve and a retractable trigger fixed in rotation relative to the sleeve and movable between a lowered position or retracted and a raised position where the trigger is located on the circular movement path of heels to be able to immobilize the rotating sleeve.
  • the number of heels of the sleeve is equal to that of the tubes of the weapon, so as to associate a heel to each tube.
  • the trigger consists of a flap pivoting articulated around an axis supported by a support trigger which is fixed in rotation relative to the sleeve and which is mounted opposite the latter.
  • the heel associated with a gun barrel goes past the trigger after firing the ammunition fired by this tube and before that of the ammunition fired by the next tube.
  • the stop device in rotation of the sleeve is notably actuated as a result detection of a failure in firing a ammunition.
  • This failure can be detected by noting the absence of combustion gases or a recoil movement of the weapon within a period of time determined.
  • we will consider means of detection sensitive to combustion gas pressure.
  • the passage of the trigger in the lowered position and / or recorded is provided by one of several means of detection and control mounted on a solid support in rotation of the rotating assembly of the weapon, the number of these control means being equal to that of the tubes of the weapon to associate a control means to each tube.
  • each means control consists of a movable element between a retracted position and an active position where it can act on the trigger, this element being movable by a position to another by borrowing combustion gas from the ammunition fired by the tube associated with this means of control, this mobile element can be the rod of piston of a jack, the cylinder of which communicates with the tube associated with this mobile element.
  • the invention contemplates two principles of operation according to the position occupied by the retractable trigger in normal weapon operation.
  • the trigger is in position raised before firing an ammunition, which implies a first operating principle according to which the trigger must be retracted after firing a ammunition by a tube so that the heel of the associated sleeve to this tube can pass freely in front of the trigger, the latter being then raised after the passage of the heel and before firing a round of ammunition.
  • this first embodiment it is then provided a device for lowering and a device to raise the trigger, these two devices being successively actuated by the associated control means to the tube that just fired an ammunition.
  • the movable element of this control means is in its retracted or rest position before firing the ammunition and, in normal operation of the weapon, passes in its active position when the ammunition is fired by borrowing combustion gases.
  • Devices for lowering and raising the trigger each consist of a linked linkage hinged to the trigger to rotate it one way or the other.
  • Each of these linkages includes at least one cam means which is located on the displacement path of the movable element of the control means associated with the tube which fires ammunition, when this control element is in its position active so as to act successively on the cams of the device for lowering and device for raising the trigger.
  • the movable element of the faulty tube control means In the event of a malfunction during the firing ammunition through one of the barrels of the weapon, such as example a failure which results in a non-firing of the ammunition or a delay in firing the ammunition, the movable element of the faulty tube control means remains in its rest position due to the absence of combustion gases or their retardation. In these conditions, the cams of the devices for lowering and raising the trigger are no longer located in the path of displacement of the movable element and the trigger is therefore maintained in the raised position, i.e. on the displacement trajectory of the heels of the sleeve. The heel associated with the faulty tube will then come up against against the trigger and will cause immobilization in sleeve rotation.
  • the external fire stop command during of a burst is designed to retain in a retracted position the movable element of the means command associated with one of the tubes of the weapon, when this tube will fire ammunition.
  • the trigger is maintained in its raised position after firing the ammunition and it will cause, as in the case of a malfunction when firing a munition, a immobilization in rotation of the sleeve and displacement in translation of the roller carrier.
  • the damping means are always ordered as a result of immobilization in rotation of the sleeve, both in the case of shooting defective ammunition only in the case of actuation of the external fire stop command.
  • the trigger is held in the lowered position, which involves a second reverse operating principle to that envisaged previously.
  • this second embodiment it is provided a device to hold the trigger in lowered position and a device for raising it only following the faulty firing of an ammunition or the actuation of the external fire control to cause the sleeve to stop rotating.
  • the movable element of the associated control means on each barrel of the weapon is however in its position active before firing ammunition, and borrowing gas is used when firing the ammunition to move the movable element in its retracted position so as to what he cannot act on the device for raise the trigger.
  • the device for raising the trigger also includes, as in the first embodiment, a cam located on the trajectory for moving the movable element of the control means when this movable element is in its active position.
  • the element mobile of the control means associated with this tube remains in its active position to be able to act on the device which allows the trigger to be raised before the passage of the sleeve heel associated with the tube and cause immobilization in rotation of the sleeve when this heel comes into contact with the trigger.
  • the external fire stop command during of a burst for example is designed to retain in its active position and not in its retracted position as in the first embodiment, the element mobile of the control means associated with one of the tubes, when this tube fires ammunition to be able to act on the device which raises the trigger before the passage of the heel of the sleeve associated with the tube which draws the ammunition and thus causing immobilization in rotation of the sleeve.
  • the external fire control in the two embodiments is only intended to act on one of the tubes of the weapon. Under these conditions, when the external fire control is activated during of a burst, the weapon can still fire at least a number ammunition equal to the number of tubes of the front weapon effective stopping of the weapon, i.e. the weapon does not can not fire piecemeal but this mode of operation is not of major interest for a GATLING type firearm.
  • This second embodiment presents in particular the advantage of saving wear and tear on all of the mechanisms that are used to lower and raise the trigger. Indeed, for each rotation of the whole turning the weapon and in normal operation the first embodiment requires lowering and pull the trigger up a number of times equal to the number of tubes, while in the second embodiment the trigger remains in the retracted position and is not necessary to request the mechanisms to raise and lower the trigger.
  • the kinetic energy of the rotating assembly of the weapon is absorbed by the damping means, this which avoids almost instantaneous immobilization likely to create mechanical stress important in terms of rotating support bearings of the rotating assembly of the weapon.

  • the movement swivel lever 257 is secured from a member 265 for controlling the rotation of the shaft 259 which supports lever 257.
  • the rotational movement of the shaft 259 is transmitted to the lever 257 by a spring 267 mounted coaxially with the shaft 259. More specifically, a end of the spring 267 is fixed to the shaft 259, then that its other end bears on lever 257. Thus, a rotation of the shaft 259 results in a pivoting movement at lever 257.
  • the controller 265 is for example a electromagnet, of which the moving part 265a picks up support on an eccentric pin 269 fixed at the end of the tree 259 which is opposite to that which cooperates with the lever 257.
  • a translational movement of the moving part 265a results in a movement of shaft rotation 259.
  • This shaft 259 is mounted on a block of support 270 located near the trigger support 252, these two supports providing space E between them which is mounted the lowering device 255 of the trigger G.
  • This support block 270 is fixed in rotation relative to the rotating assembly 100 of the weapon. Considering the firing direction of the weapon, the block of support 270 is located upstream of the support block 152 of the trigger G.
  • the electromagnet 265 is located on the side of the support block 270 which is opposite the space E, and the shaft 259 extends parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotating assembly 100 of the weapon.
  • Lever 257 which lowers the trigger G is an element of a TR linkage comprising two other levers 272 and 274 mounted in the extension of lever 257, i.e. in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the assembly turning 100.
  • lever 257 is articulated at one end of the intermediate lever 272 around an axis 276.
  • the other end of the lever intermediate 272 is articulated at one end of the lever 274 around a hinge pin 277, while the other end of lever 274 is articulated at a point fixed around an axis 278.
  • This TR linkage constitutes a line broken, the geometry of which can be distorted in conditions which will be explained below to make rotate lever 257 in the opposite direction to that printed by family tree 259.
  • a device 280 is also provided for immobilize the trigger G when it is in lowered position.
  • This device 280 includes a lever pivoting 282, one end of which is articulated in a fixed point around an axis 284. The other end of the immobilizer lever 282 is intended to penetrate into a notch 285 formed in the radial arm 264 integral of the rod 250 of the trigger G (FIG. 11).
  • This lever immobilizer 282 extends parallel to the TR linkage, and cooperates with a return spring (not shown) to hold lever 282 in its position of immobilization of the trigger G.
  • the pivoting of this lever is controlled by a pin 287 which extends axially the hinge pin 277 provided between the two levers 272 and 274 of the linkage, as will be described later.
  • a device 290 is also provided for raise trigger G.
  • This device is also located in space E and includes a lever 292, one of which end is articulated at a fixed point around the axis 284.
  • the other end of the lever 292 is intended to cooperate with a crankpin 295 for toggle trigger G.
  • This 295 pin is supported by a radial arm 296 secured to the rod 250 of the trigger G.
  • Crankpin 295 extends parallel to the rod 250, is offset and enters a hole 297 provided in lever 292.
  • lever 292 of trigger release G is parallel to the TR linkage and immobilizer lever 282, and it has an opening 298 for the free passage of the trigger rod 250 G.
  • the lever 292 has a boss 299 on which each of the means of action can act command 170 of the first embodiment, namely the piston rod 175 of cylinder 177 associated with each tube of the weapon and whose position is controlled by borrowing from gas from the ammunition fired by this tube T.
  • the external fire control 300 includes a sector swivel 302 which is fixed in rotation relative to the rotating assembly 100 of the weapon.
  • Sector 302 has a curved surface 302a forming a cam, and is mounted articulated on the side of the support block 270 which is opposite the space E where are mounted devices 255 and 290 to lower and raise trigger G. Specifically, one end of the sector 302 is articulated on an eccentric pin 304 carried by a radial arm 306 secured to the shaft of control 259 of the lowering lever 257. The other end of sector 302 is articulated on a crankpin eccentric 308 carried by a radial arm 310 secured to a shaft 312 rotatably supported by the support block 270 and extending parallel to the control shaft 259.
  • the sector 302 can thus pivot in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the assembly turning 100, its surface 302a forming a cam facing this rotating assembly.
  • Sector 302 can rotate between a rest position and a control position, knowing that a return spring 315 mounted coaxially with the control shaft 259 has one end which takes support on sector 302 so as to bring it back automatically in rest position when the electromagnet 265 for rotating the shaft 259 is not not excited.
  • the external fire control 300 also includes a rotary distributor 318 mounted around one of the T tubes of the weapon and is described below with reference to Figure 10.
  • This distributor 318 has an opening 320 which is intended to form a gas passage between the tube T and the cylinder 178 of the cylinder 177 associated with this tube to control movement piston rod 175 mounted in cylinder 178.
  • This distributor 318 plays the role of the ratchet 189 of the first embodiment.
  • Sector 302 is intended to modify the distributor position 318 to interrupt the connection between tube T and cylinder 178 of cylinder 177 when the external fire stop command 300 is actuated.
  • the dispenser 318 has a heel radial 322, the free end of which then comes into contact of the cam 300a of sector 302 to rotate the distributor 318 around the tube T which supports it.
  • the trigger G is in position lowered before firing ammunition by any one T tubes, and piston rod 175 of cylinder 177 associated with this tube is in an active position, i.e. that the piston rod 175 during the movement of rotation of tube T is likely to come into contact with the TR linkage of the lowering device 155 the trigger G and the boss 299 of the lifting lever 292 of the trigger G.
  • the electromagnet 165 is kept supplied for that its 265a moving crew be supported on the crankpin of operation 269 of the tree 259 to force the latter to perform a rotational movement which is transmitted to the lever 257 of the TR linkage.
  • Notch 260 of lever 257 thus comes into contact with the crankpin of maneuver 262 which rotates the rod 250 of the trigger G in a direction which tends to position the trigger G in its lowered position.
  • Lever 282 of trigger immobilizer 280 G is then engaged in the notch 285 of the radial arm 264 which supports the crankpin 262 (figure 11).
  • the firing stop sector 302 When the electromagnet 265 is activated, the firing stop sector 302 is in its rest position and the return spring 315 associated with sector 302 is at the bandaged state.
  • the operation will be described taking into account only one single tube T of the weapon, the heel 150 of the sleeve 140 associated with this tube T and the control means 170, also associated with this tube T, to modify the trigger positioning G.
  • the striker 25 associated with this tube is actuated and the ammunition loaded into this tube is fired. Part of gas resulting from the firing of the ammunition is conveyed by the opening 320 of the rotary distributor 318 in the cylinder 178 of cylinder 177 associated with tube T.
  • the rod of piston 175 housed in cylinder 178 then moves axially to take a rest position, with setting in concomitant compression of its return spring 182. Under these conditions, during the rotational movement of the tube T, the piston rod 175 associated with this tube cannot come in contact with neither the TR linkage associated with trigger lowering device 255 G ni with the boss 299 of the lifting lever 292 of the trigger G.
  • the heel 150 of the sleeve 140 which is associated with the tube T which has just fired a passing munition freely in front of trigger G, just like heel 150 associated with each tube T of the weapon which fires ammunition during a complete rotational movement of the assembly turning 100 of the weapon.
  • the piston rod 175 comes in contact with the TR linkage near the axis 277 between the two levers 272 and 274. This contact has the effect of modifying the geometric line broken formed by the TR linkage and forces the lever 257 pivot so that its notch 260 emerges from the crankpin of actuation 262 of the trigger G. Simultaneously, the pawn 287 which extends this axis of articulation 277 is supported on the lever 282 so as to rotate the latter and release it from the notch 285 of the radial arm 264 secured to the rod 250 of the trigger G. In these conditions, trigger G is released from the device 255. Then the piston rod 175 comes in contact with the boss 299 of the lifting lever 292 which, via the shunt pin 295, causes the triggering of the trigger G in its raised position (figure 12).
  • Trigger G is raised before the heel 150 of the sleeve 140 which is associated with the tube T does not pass in front of trigger G, so that heel 150 will come into abutment against the trigger G and cause the sleeve 140 to immobilize in rotation.
  • the return spring 315 associated with the sector 302 can then relax and pass the sector 302 in its active position.
  • heel 322 of distributor 318 will come into contact with cam 302a and thus force the distributor 318 to rotate around the tube T, so that the opening 320 of the distributor 318 no longer connects the T tube and the cylinder 178 of the cylinder 177 associated with this tube T (figure 13).
  • a dysfunction in shooting a ammunition and actuation of the external stop command firing results in a rotation stop of the sleeve rotary 140.
  • This rotation stop of the sleeve 140 drives the immobilizer 120 in rotation of the rotating assembly 100 of the weapon, in a manner identical to that described in the first embodiment.
  • a counter-trigger 198 armed with a spring and supported by the support block 152 of the trigger G. This counter-trigger 198 comes to bear against the heel 150 of the sleeve 140 which precedes that blocked by the trigger G.
  • This device 330 includes a element 332 movable in translation under the control of a screw 334 for example and which supports the axis hinge 277 of lever 274.
