摘要:
A shell feeding system for a top loading shotgun in one embodiment includes a barrel, receiver, and a magazine. The magazine includes a cavity configured to receive a plurality of ammunition shells in stacked end-to-end relationship. The magazine is positioned above the barrel and extends forward from the receiver. Shell guide grooves are formed by internal surfaces in the receiver which engage and guide each shell in a feed pathway towards the lower part of the receiver for chambering. A portion of the guide grooves may be arcuately shaped to rotate and reposition the shell for loading by the bolt into the chamber. In one embodiment, the receiver and magazine may be formed as a unitary integral structure formed as either a single piece or in half sections coupled together.

A device (1) for feeding medium-calibre ammunition, intended for a turret mounted on an armoured vehicle, characterised in that the structural elements for guided and pulled delivery successively comprise a first conveyor (31), a first ratchet casing (41), a second conveyor (32) and a second ratchet casing (42), said rotating circular plate and said structural elements for guided and pulled delivery all being covered with a protection made from metal sheet on the side faces of same and/or on a top portion or roof, said protection made from metal sheet having movable flaps mounted in a rotating or pivoting manner (23, 24, 28, 33, 34, 35), allowing partial or total ergonomic (re)loading and/or unloading of medium-calibre ammunition (2) into/from the rotating circular plate (21, 22), either when the vehicle is stationary or when it is moving, from the inside and/or the outside of the turret and access to the medium-calibre ammunition (2) or (re)loading and/or unloading of same into/from the conveyors (31, 32).

A light-weight firearm and related fabrication method are described for a wear resistant feed ramp for chambering cartridges from an ammunition magazine. In one embodiment, the firearm includes a barrel and a frame defining a magazine well and cartridge feed ramp. A wear insert formed of a different material than the frame is implanted in the feed ramp adjacent to the barrel chamber. The wear insert is then machined in situ to shape forming an obliquely angled wear surface. After machining, both the frame and implanted wear insert undergo a surface hardening process together. The surface hardened wear insert has a greater surface hardness than the surface hardened frame and is better adapted to resist wear after repeated chambering of rounds. In one non-limiting example, the frame may be hard anodized aluminum and the wear insert hard anodized titanium.

The invention relates to a barrel (3, 3') for a repeating weapon, especially a semi-automatic weapon (15) in which the cartridges are supplied to the barrel during the loading process and move in the longitudinal and crosswise direction of the weapon during this process. A cartridge holder (5) for receiving the cartridges and a guide element (7) which is adjacent to said cartridge holder are provided, said guide element extending in the direction of the rear part of the weapon and being configured in such a way as to guide the cartridges during the loading process. The guide element is essentially located at the point where the crosswise movement provided for cartridges during the loading process terminates. Said guide element (7) is also configured in such a way that its inner surface (7a) has a cross-section in the shape of a segment of a circle, at least in sections, the curve of said segment corresponding to the radius of the cartridge holder (5). The invention also relates to a corresponding repeating weapon.

The invention relates to a device and a method for loading a cartridge (3) into a battery (2) of a barrel (1) of an autoloading firearm. Said device comprises a bolt (8) which is able to slide in the longitudinal direction of the firearm and serves to move the cartridge (3) and to introduce said cartridge (3) into the battery (2). The invention provides for at least one centering element (5b) which is irremovably fixed to the barrel (1) and serves to center the bolt (8) in relation to said barrel (1).
