Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abzugseinrichtung für Handfeuerwaffen nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Eine solche Abzugseinrichtung ist aus der DE 3111037 bekannt.The invention relates to a trigger device for handguns according to the preamble of claim 1. Such a trigger device is known from DE 3111037 known.

Es sind bereits Abzugseinrichtungen der eingangs genannten Art bekannt, bei denen der Schlaghammer bei jedem Schuss zunächst über den Abzug gespannt werden muss. Durch diese sogenannten DAO-Abzugssysteme (Double Action Only) wird bei einer Waffe eine hohe Sicherheit gewährleistet, da sie einen gleichbleibenden Abzugswiderstand aufweisen und nach dem Schiessen ohne zusätzliches Entspannen weggesteckt oder abgelegt werden können. Allerdings weisen die herkömmlichen DAO-Abzugssysteme einen unveränderlichen Abzugsweg auf, so dass sowohl zur Abgabe eines ersten Schusses als auch zur Abgabe weiterer Schüsse jeweils eine gleich große Bewegung des Abzuges erforderlich ist.There are already deduction facilities of the type mentioned above, in which the Hammer must first be stretched over the trigger with each shot. By These so-called DAO trigger systems (Double Action Only) is a weapon in a high security guaranteed, since they have a constant trigger resistance and put away after shooting without any additional relaxation can. However, the conventional DAO trigger systems have a fixed Abzugsweg on, so that both the delivery of a first shot as well as for delivery Further shots each equal movement of the trigger is required.

Aus der CH 685 262 A5 ist eine Abzugseinrichtung einer Handfeuerwaffe mit einem Hahn, einem Abzug und einer mit diesem zusammenwirkenden Abzugsstange bekannt. Bei dieser bekannten Abzugseinrichtung arbeitet die Abzugsstange mit einem Hahnhalter zusammen, durch den der Hahn bei einem selbstspannenden Betrieb (single action) in einer gespannten Stellung und bei einem Betrieb mit Spannabzug (double action) in einer teilvorgespannten (precocked) Stellung gehalten wird. Beim Betrieb der Waffe mittels Spannabzug wird der Hahn durch die Bewegung der Abzugsstange zunächst über einen Unterbrecher in die Spannstellung bewegt, bis das hintere Ende der Spannstange über eine ortsfeste Abschrägung nach unten bewegt wird. Gleichzeitig wird der Unterbrecher nach oben verschwenkt, wodurch die Berührung zwischen der Abzugsstange und dem Unterbrecher unterbrochen wird. Dadurch kann der Hahn zu Abfeuerung eines Schusses nach vorne schnellen.The CH 685 262 A5 is a trigger device of a handgun with a cock, a trigger and cooperating with this trigger bar known. At this known extraction device works the trigger bar together with a cock holder, through the tap in a self-tensioning operation (single action) in a cocked Position and in a double-action operation in a semi-prestressed position (precocked) position is held. When operating the weapon by means of tension trigger of the Tap by moving the trigger bar first over a breaker in the Clamping position moves until the rear end of the tie rod via a stationary bevel is moved down. At the same time the breaker is pivoted upward, causing the contact between the trigger bar and the breaker is interrupted. This allows the tap to advance to firing a shot forward.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Abzugseinrichtung für Handfeuerwaffen zu schaffen, deren Funktionsweise im wesentlichen der eines DAO-Abzugsystems (Double Action Only) entspricht, jedoch die Möglichkeit bietet, ab dem zweiten Schuß mit einem wesentlich verkürzten Abzugsweg zu schießen. The object of the invention is to provide a trigger device for handguns whose Essentially the functionality of a DAO trigger system (Double Action Only) but offers the possibility, starting from the second shot with a substantial Shortened trigger to shoot.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Abzugseinrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by a trigger device with the features of claim 1 solved. Advantageous embodiments and advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Abzugseinrichtung wird nach dem Auslösen des ersten Schusses die Abzugsschiene bereits beim Repetieren des Verschlusses durch Verschiebung des Steuerschiebers aus einer unteren Auslösestellung in eine obere Fangstellung gebracht. Dadurch kann der beim Repetieren ebenfalls gespannte Schlaghammer bereits wieder gefangen und über den Abzug gehalten werden, bevor er seine vollständig entspannte vordere Ausgangsstellung zur Abgabe des nächsten Schusses erreicht. Wenn der Abzug vom Schützen nach der Abgabe des Schusses nicht losgelassen wird, kann so der nächste Schuss mit einem deutlich verkürzten Abzugsweg abgegebenen werden. Wir der Abzug hingegen nach der Abgabe des Schusses freigegeben, bewegt sich dieser in seine Ausgangsstellung zurück und zur Abgabe des nächsten Schusses ist wieder der vollständige Abzugsweg erforderlich. Dadurch wird eine hohe Sicherheit gewährleistet, da die Waffe nach dem Schießen ohne zusätzliches Entspannen weggesteckt werden kann.In the trigger device according to the invention is after triggering the first shot the trigger rail already when repeating the shutter by shifting the Spool brought from a lower release position in an upper catch position. As a result, the hammer, which is also taut when repeating, can already be used again be caught and held over the trigger, before leaving his completely relaxed front Starting position reached for the delivery of the next shot. If the trigger is from the shooter After the delivery of the shot is not released, so the next shot with a significantly shortened trigger path are delivered. We the deduction after the Release of the shot released, this moves back to its original position and to deliver the next shot, the complete withdrawal path is required again. This ensures a high level of security, since the gun after shooting without additional relaxation can be put away.

In einer besonders zweckmäßigen Ausführung der Erfindung ist der Steuerschieber quer zur Längsachse der Handfeuerwaffe verschiebbar zwischen zwei voneinander beabstandeten Seitenteilen eines Trägerelements angeordnet. Der Steuerschieber enthält zweckmäßigerweise einen unteren Steuerradius, durch den die Abzugsschiene in der Ausgangsstellung des Steuerschiebers in ihre Auslösestellung zur Freigabe des Schlaghammers bewegt wird. Der Steuerschieber enthält außerdem eine Ausfräsung, in welche die Abzugsschiene in der nach innen gedrückten Funktionsstellung des Steuerschiebers eingreift. Dabei gelangt die Abzugsschiene in eine Fangstellung, in welcher der beim Repetieren ebenfalls gespannte Schlaghammer gefangen werden kann.In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the spool is transverse to Longitudinal axis of the handgun slidably between two spaced apart Side parts of a support element arranged. The spool expediently contains a lower control radius through which the trigger rail in the starting position of the Spool is moved to its release position to release the percussion hammer. Of the Control slide also contains a cutout, in which the trigger rail in the after inside depressed functional position of the spool engages. This gets the Discharge rail in a catch position, in which the also stretched when repeating Hammer can be caught.

Zur Verschiebung des Steuerschiebers ist in einer bevorzugten Ausführung an einer den Steuerschieber übergreifenden Seitenwand des Verschlusses eine Vertiefung vorgesehen, in die der Steuerschieber bei geschlossenem Verschluss eingreift. Wenn der Verschluss aufgrund des Rückstoßes bei der Schussabgabe verschoben wird, gelangt der Steuerschieber außer Eingriff mit der Vertiefung und wird nach innen in seine Funktionsstellung gedrückt. In dieser Stellung springt die Abzugsschiene in die dafür vorgesehene Ausfräsung des Steuerschiebers ein, wodurch wieder eine Überlappung zwischen einer Fangrast der Abzugsschiene und einer Feuerrast am Schlaghammer besteht. Gleichzeitig wird der Steuerschieber durch die Abzugsschiene in seiner nach innen gedrückten Funktionsstellung gehalten. Wenn der durch die Zurückwärtsbewegung des Verschlusses ebenfalls gespannte Schlaghammer dann wieder in seine Ausgangsstellung zurückkehrt, gelangt er bereits vor Erreichen seiner Ausgangsstellung wieder in Eingriff mit der Abzugsschiene und schiebt diese zurück, so dass sich der Steuerschieber wieder in seine Ausgangsstellung bewegt. In dieser Stellung ist eine erneute Schussauslösung mit erheblich verkürztem Abzugsweg möglich.To move the spool is in a preferred embodiment of a Spool cross-section side wall of the closure provided a recess, in which engages the spool with closed shutter. If the shutter due the recoil is shifted in the firing, the spool gets out Engages with the recess and is pressed inwards into its functional position. In this Position jumps the trigger rail in the designated cutout of the spool a, whereby again an overlap between a catch catch of the trigger rail and a Feuerrast on the hammer is. At the same time, the spool is replaced by the Retraction rail held in its inwardly depressed functional position. When the through the backward movement of the shutter also cocked percussion hammer then again returns to its original position, he comes even before reaching his Starting position again in engagement with the trigger rail and pushes back, so that the spool moves back to its original position. In this position is a new shot triggering with a significantly reduced trigger path possible.

Der Steuerschieber enthält einen Führungsstift und einen dazu rechtwinkligen Steuerzapfen, der in einer entsprechenden Öffnung des zur Abzugsschiene gewandten Seitenteils des Trägerelements nach außen vorstehend angeordnet ist. Auf dem Führungsstift ist eine Druckfeder angeordnet, durch die der Steuerzapfen des Steuerschiebers an die angrenzende Seitenwand des Verschlusses gedrückt wird.The spool contains a guide pin and a right-angled control pin, in a corresponding opening of the deduction rail facing side part of the Carrier element is arranged protruding outwards. On the guide pin is a Compression spring arranged through which the control pin of the spool to the adjacent Sidewall of the closure is pressed.

Im folgenden wird die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Abzugseinrichtung anhand der Figuren 1 bis 5 erläutert.In the following, the operation of the discharge device according to the invention with reference to Figures 1 to 5 explained.

Bei der in Figur 1 dargestellten Ausgangsposition der Abzugseinrichtung befindet sich der Abzug 2 in seiner vorderen Ausgangsstellung. Das hintere Ende der nach oben federbeaufschlagten Abzugsschiene 3 liegt mit der Anlagefläche 18 an einem seitlich vorstehenden Teil der Schlaghammerachse 7 an. Der Schlaghammer 1 ist in dieser Stellung vollständig entspannt und der Steuerschieber 19 nimmt eine im Schnitt I-I gezeigte Ausgangsstellung ein. In dieser Ausgangsstellung greift der nach außen vorstehende Steuerzapfen 21 des Steuerschiebers 19 in eine seitliche Vertiefung 31 an der Seitenwand 30 des Verschlusses 11 ein.In the starting position of the extraction device shown in Figure 1 is the Trigger 2 in its front starting position. The back end of the upward spring-loaded trigger rail 3 is located with the contact surface 18 at a side protruding part of the hammer axis 7 at. The percussion hammer 1 is in this position completely relaxed and the spool 19 takes a shown in section I-I Starting position. In this initial position, the outwardly protruding engages Control pin 21 of the spool 19 in a lateral recess 31 on the side wall 30th of the closure 11 a.

Bei der Betätigung des Abzugs 2 wird der Schlaghammer 1 über die Abzugsschiene 3 entgegen der nicht gezeigten Schlaghammerfeder gespannt. Sobald der Steuernocken 15 der Abzugsschiene 3 am Steuerradius 22 des in der Ausgangsstellung befindlichen Steuerschiebers 19 aufläuft wird die Abzugsschiene 3 gemäß Figur 2 in Richtung des Pfeils nach unten bewegt, bis die Rastkante 17 der Abzugsschiene 3 in einer unteren Lösestellung aus der Feuerrast 5 des Schlaghammers 1 austritt und dieser zur Auslösung eines Schusses freigegeben wird.Upon actuation of the trigger 2 of the percussion hammer 1 via the trigger rail. 3 stretched against the hammer, not shown. Once the control cam 15 of Trigger rail 3 at the steering wheel 22 of the located in the starting position Spool valve 19 runs up the trigger rail 3 according to Figure 2 in the direction of the arrow moves down until the locking edge 17 of the trigger rail 3 in a lower release position from the fire door 5 of the percussion hammer 1 exits and this to trigger a shot is released.

Nach erfolgter Zündung wird der Verschluß 11 der Handfeuerwaffe aufgrund des Rückstoßes in Richtung des Schlaghammers 1 beschleunigt. Dadurch wird der Schlaghammer 1 gespannt. Gleichzeitig gelangt der nach außen vorstehende Steuerzapfen 21 des Steuerschiebers 19 aus der Vertiefung 31 der Seitenwand 30, wodurch der Steuerschieber 19 aus seiner in Figur 1 gezeigten Ausgangsstellung nach innen in eine im Schnitt II-II von Figur 3 dargestellte Funktionsstellung gedrückt wird. In dieser Funktionsstellung des Steuerschiebers 19 springt die Abzugsschiene 3 in die untere Ausfräsung 23, so dass die Fangrast 16 der Abzugsschiene 3 in die Freifräsung 4 des Schlaghammers 1 steht und eine Überlappung mit der Feuerrast 5 besteht.

Gleichzeitig wird der Steuerschieber 19 in dieser Funktionsstellung fixiert.After ignition, the shutter 11 of the handgun is due to the recoil accelerated in the direction of the percussion hammer 1. As a result, the percussion hammer 1 is stretched. At the same time the outwardly projecting control pin 21 of the spool 19 comes out the recess 31 of the side wall 30, whereby the spool 19 from its in Figure 1 shown inwardly in a section II-II of Figure 3 shown Function position is pressed. In this functional position of the spool 19 jumps the trigger rail 3 in the lower cutout 23, so that the catch catch 16 of the trigger rail 3 is in the free-cutting 4 of the percussion hammer 1 and an overlap with the fire fist. 5 consists. In this raised catch position of the trigger rail 3 of the after Repeating in its initial position returning hammer 1 over the Retracting rail 3 be caught before moving its completely relaxed front Starting position reached. At the same time the spool 19 is in this Functional position fixed.

Nachdem sich das Verschlußstück 11 wieder in seiner Ausgangsstellung befindet, bewegt sich der gespannte Schlaghammer 1 gemäß Figur 4 in Pfeilrichtung, bis er von der Fangrast 16 der Abzugsschiene 3, die sich noch in der in Figur 3 gezeigten Position befindet, gefangen wird.After the closure piece 11 is back in its initial position, moves the taut percussion hammer 1 according to Figure 4 in the direction of arrow until it from the catch 16 of the Trigger rail 3, which is still in the position shown in Figure 3, is caught.

Durch die weitere Vorwärtsbewegung des gespannten Schlaghammers 1 in Pfeilrichtung von Figur 5 wird der Steuernocken 15 der Abzugsschiene 3 aus der Ausfräsung 23 des Steuerschiebers 19 geschoben, so dass sich der Steuerschieber 19 in seine Ausgangsstellung bewegt. In dieser Stellung der Abzugseinrichtung ist die erneute Schussauslösung mit erheblich verkürztem Abzugsweg möglich.By the further forward movement of the tensioned percussion hammer 1 in the arrow direction of 5, the control cam 15 of the trigger rail 3 from the cutout 23 of the Spool 19 pushed, so that the spool 19 in its starting position emotional. In this position, the trigger device is the new shot firing with Significantly shortened deduction possible.
