Definitions

  • the invention is concerned with a mount for attachments, such as aiming and / or lighting, handguns, which are preferably compatible with Picatinny rails and NATO Accessory Rai! is.
  • Targeting (aiming) and illuminating means on especially military handguns are usually mounted on standardized rails (e.g., Picatinny MIL-STD 1913 / NAR STANAG 4694). Other rails are also conceivable. Mounts for such means are known to be used for releasably or permanently attaching a target and lighting device on the weapon. Brackets of this type are in turn referred to as detachable or non-removable or non-removable brackets, i.e., so-called fixed mountings. Fixed mounts are regularly designed simply because they remain for a long time or always on the weapon. The removable brackets are constructed in contrast consuming, since they must ensure a quick removal or placement of the target and lighting devices.
  • standardized rails e.g., Picatinny MIL-STD 1913 / NAR STANAG 4694.
  • Other rails are also conceivable.
  • Mounts for such means are known to be used for releasably or permanently
  • DE 199 18 635 C1 discloses a mounting device on a firearm.
  • This mounting device has a longitudinal rail on which a mounting base can be placed as a device carrier. The connection is made via a clamping device which is pressed with a preselectable spring force. Due to the spring arrangement inaccuracies can be compensated. Slipping is prevented by the training on the mounting base.
  • a split target device holder is described in DE 201 101 903 U1. In this case, two similar mounting base body are present, the underside conforming to the respective section of the weapon upper side to which the target holder is to be attached, is preferably round. An outstanding from the mounting base cylindrical bolt engages in the present on the weapon blind hole bore and is tuned to this.
  • a target device holder on a firearm is further published with DE 203 13 331 U1.
  • the weapon or the barrel of the weapon has a blind hole and an opposite depression.
  • the main body of the target device holder consists of a convex shaped bottom, which rests on the barrel of the weapon.
  • An overhanging cylindrical bolt engages in the blind hole.
  • On the longitudinal side of the recess engages a movable and fixable clamping surface of the target device holder.
  • the clamping surface is part of the lower lever arm pivotally mounted in the target device body clamping lever.
  • the upper arm of the clamping lever is under the force of a spring on the lateral surface of an eccentric disc.
  • DE 10 2009 023 520 B4 shows a holder for attachments for mounting on firearms with rail.
  • a riflescope assembly described in DE 10 2013 002 606 B3 is in turn characterized by a universal construction.

  • the aforementioned brackets are in turn component-consuming.
  • the present invention therefore has the object to show a simple holder of the type mentioned, which requires only a few components.
  • a weapon with such a holder is claimed in the claim.
  • Advantageous embodiments show the dependent claims.
  • the invention is based on the idea to fix a holder on a rail on / at the weapon by a clamping lever.
  • the clamping lever is shaped so that it simultaneously acts as a spring (solid spring). This allows component tolerances on the bracket and rail to be compensated.
  • the present invention thus makes the already envisaged in DE 203 13 331 U1 spring support to own, but puts the emphasis in the construction of the clamping lever.
  • the spring force results from the elasticity of the material of the clamping lever, from which the clamping lever is made.
  • One or the counterpart to the receiving rail is preferably integrated in the base body of the holder.
  • the clamping lever produces a positive connection to the rail.
  • the bracket requires a minimum number of parts, is lightweight, inexpensive and easy to assemble.
  • the clamping lever is shaped so that pivoting causes the holder to be fixed to the rail. Furthermore, the clamping lever is preferably symmetrically shaped, so that a pivoting in both directions, ie, in or counterclockwise, the holder is tightened. The pivoting should be done by 90 °. Due to the frictional engagement of the clamping lever dirt is stripped off in an advantageous manner. This makes the holder very insensitive to contamination.
  • the clamping lever preferably does not press directly onto the rail for receiving the auxiliary devices, such as target and illumination means, but transmits the force via a sliding plate. This GJeitbiech is pressed during clamping to the receiving rail and pulled back by a mechanical connection to the clamping lever when relaxing from the rail.
  • the sliding plate fulfills the purpose that rail and lever do not wear each other. It proposes a structurally simple releasable mount on especially handguns.
  • the positive connection of the holder for hand weapons to the rail is made by a clamping lever with solid spring.
  • the property of the solid spring of the clamping lever is realized by form-groove.
  • the tension lever is symmetrical to allow 90 ° pivoting and anti-clockwise locking.
  • the bracket has a sliding plate that protects the mounting rail and the clamping lever from wear.
  • the counterpart to the receiving rail and guide bar is integrated in the main body of the holder.
  • the holder may alternatively be integrated in a base plate of an accessory.
  • the geometry of the bracket fits to mounting rails according to MIL-STD 1913 as well as to STANAG 4694 and others. For its part, it is universally applicable.
  • a holder for additional equipment of a weapon comprising at least one receiving rail or at least one recording-like depression, which is fastened by means of a positive connection to the weapon.
  • the connection is made by a clamping lever integrated in the holder with integrated solid spring.
  • the holder consists of very few components
  • Fig. 1 is an exploded view of a holder according to the invention
  • Fig. 2 is an illustration of the assembled holder of Fig. 1;
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 shows an illustration of the basic body of the holder from FIGS. 1 and 2;
  • Fig. 4 is an illustration of the clamping lever from the holder of Figure 1;
  • FIG. 6 shows an illustration of the holder on the receiving rail in the open state.
  • Fig. 6a is a sectional view of the holder with receiving rail in Fig. 6;
  • Fig. 7 is an illustration of the holder on the receiving rail in closed
