Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Steuerelement (10) zur Ansteuerung eines um eine erste Drehachse (A) beweglichen Verschlussfanghebels (20), der zwischen einer Ruhelage zur Freigabe eines Verschlussträgers (30) und einer Fanglage zum Fangen des Verschlussträgers (30) bewegbar ist,wobei das Steuerelement (10) einen um eine zweite Drehachse (B) gelagerten ersten Arm (15) aufweist,wobei ein erster Arm (15) einen ersten Steuerabschnitt (11) mit einer ersten Kontaktfläche (11a) und einer zur ersten Kontaktfläche (11a) abgewandt liegenden zweiten Kontaktfläche (11b) umfasst, die mittels einer Steuerkurve (36, 37, 38) des Verschlussträgers (30) um die zweite Drehachse (B) des Steuerelements (10) auslenkbar ansteuerbar sind,wobei der erste Arm (15) ferner einen zweiten Steuerabschnitt (13) umfasst, der mittels einer Steuerfläche (55a) eines Abzugs (50) ansteuerbar ist.Die Erfindung betrifft ferner einen Verschlussfanghebel (20), einen Verschlussträger (30), einen Abzug (50), eine Abzugsbaugruppe (70), sowie eine Maschinenwaffe.The invention relates to a control element (10) for controlling a slide catch lever (20) which is movable about a first axis of rotation (A) and which can be moved between a rest position for releasing a bolt carrier (30) and a catch position for catching the bolt carrier (30), the The control element (10) has a first arm (15) mounted about a second axis of rotation (B), a first arm (15) having a first control section (11) with a first contact surface (11a) and one facing away from the first contact surface (11a). second contact surface (11b), which can be controlled by means of a control cam (36, 37, 38) of the bolt carrier (30) so that it can be deflected about the second axis of rotation (B) of the control element (10), the first arm (15) also having a second control section (13) which can be controlled by means of a control surface (55a) of a trigger (50). The invention also relates to a slide stop lever (20), a slide carrier (30), a trigger (50), a trigger assembly (70 ), and a machine gun.
