Description

OUTILLAGE DE LIAISON DE BANDES DE MUNITIONS TOOLS FOR CONNECTING AMMUNITION BANDS

Le domaine technique de l'invention est celui des outillages de liaison de bandes de munitions maillonnées et des compartiments à munitions comportant de tels outillages. The technical field of the invention is that of the linkage tooling of ammunition strip ammunition and ammunition compartments comprising such tools.

Les munitions pour armes automatiques tirant en rafales sont couramment alimentées en munitions par des bandes de munitions dites maillonnées, c'est dire où chaque munition est liée à au moins une munition voisine par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un maillon.  Burst automatic weapons ammunition is commonly supplied with ammunition by so-called "knuckle" ammunition strips, ie where each ammunition is linked to at least one neighboring ammunition via at least one link.

Lorsqu'une première bande de munitions a été intégralement consommée, il est nécessaire de réalimenter l'arme au moyen d'une seconde bande de munitions. Afin de limiter la fréquence de ce type d'intervention, il est connu de lier l'une à l'autre des bandes de munitions issues de différentes caisses à munitions de façon à former une bande de munitions plus longue que celle contenue dans un magasin unique .  When a first ammunition strip has been fully consumed, it is necessary to refuel the weapon with a second ammunition strip. In order to limit the frequency of this type of intervention, it is known to link ammunition strips from different ammunition cases to one another so as to form a strip of ammunition longer than that contained in a magazine. unique.

La demande de brevet FR3052247 montre ainsi une tourelle comprenant plusieurs caisses à munitions disposées dans des magasins .  The patent application FR3052247 thus shows a turret comprising several ammunition boxes arranged in magazines.

Un dispositif ou outillage permettant de lier les bandes de munitions est décrit dans la demande de brevet EP1691164.  A device or tool for binding ammunition strips is described in patent application EP1691164.

Cet outillage permet de lier une première bande de munitions maillonnées à une seconde bande de munitions maillonnées grâce à une munition de liaison.  This tooling makes it possible to bind a first band of ammunition meshed with a second band of ammunition meshed with a munition link.

La munition de liaison est disposée sur un support qui la cale longitudinalement et radialement. En l'espèce, il s'agit d'un tube dans lequel la munition est partiellement engagée par son ogive. Un levier apte à pivoter par rapport à un support comporte un poussoir destiné à pousser radialement en direction de la munition, un premier maillon de la première bande . Le second maillon de la seconde bande se loge dans le premier maillon de la première bande et se trouve également poussé radialement vers la munition. The link munition is disposed on a support which wedges it longitudinally and radially. In this case, it is a tube in which the ammunition is partially engaged by its warhead. A lever pivotable relative to a support comprises a pusher for pushing radially towards the munition, a first link of the first band. The second link of the second band is housed in the first link of the first band and is also pushed radially towards the ammunition.

Une fois les maillons poussés et clipsés sur la munition, ils sont alors coaxiaux entre eux et à la munition et lient ainsi la première extrémité de la première bande à la seconde extrémité de la seconde bande.  Once the links pushed and clipped on the munition, they are then coaxial with each other and the munition and thus bind the first end of the first band at the second end of the second band.

Une telle opération avec un tel équipement est aisée à réaliser dans un environnement non encombré tel qu'un atelier. L'opération en revanche devient impossible lorsque les bandes de munitions sont dans des caisses à munitions, caisses pouvant elles même être logées dans un compartiment à munitions. Dans ces conditions l'exigüité rend le retrait du dispositif de liaison trop difficile voire impossible.  Such an operation with such equipment is easy to perform in an unencumbered environment such as a workshop. The operation, on the other hand, becomes impossible when the ammunition strips are in ammunition boxes, cases which can themselves be housed in an ammunition compartment. Under these conditions the smallness makes the removal of the connecting device too difficult or impossible.

En effet l'outillage décrit par le brevet EP1691164 nécessite d'avoir accès à l'extrémité du projectile pour pouvoir coiffer la munition avec l'outillage.  Indeed the tool described by the patent EP1691164 requires access to the end of the projectile to be able to comb the ammunition with the tooling.

L'invention propose de résoudre ce problème de commodité de mise en œuvre et de retrait de l'outillage pour les opérations de liaison de bandes de munitions.  The invention proposes to solve this problem of convenience of implementation and removal of the tool for the operations of binding ammunition strips.

Ainsi, l'invention porte sur un outillage destiné à lier une extrémité d'une première bande de munitions maillonnées à une extrémité d'une seconde bande de munitions maillonnées grâce à une munition de liaison, outillage comportant au moins un support destiné à caler radialement et longitudinalement la munition de liaison, outillage comportant un levier articulé relativement au support, levier comportant un poussoir destiné à interférer avec au moins un maillon d'une extrémité de la première bande et à pousser radialement par rapport à la munition le au moins un maillon jusqu'à une seconde position où le au moins un maillon est coaxial à la munition, outillage caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un bâti solidaire du support et solidarisable avec un casier contenant une bande de munitions, bâti comportant une première et une seconde parties contigües et pivotantes l'une par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe parallèle à l'articulation du levier afin de permettre le retrait aisé de 1' outillages, bâti comportant un moyen de blocage du pivotement des parties. Thus, the invention relates to a tool for binding an end of a first band of ammunition at one end end of a second band of ammunition meshed with a bonding munition, tooling comprising at least one support for wedging radially and longitudinally the connecting munition, tooling comprising a lever hinged relative to the support, lever comprising a pusher for interfering with at least one link of an end of the first band and pushing radially with respect to the ammunition the at least one link to a second position where the at least one link is coaxial with the ammunition, tooling characterized in that it comprises a frame secured to the support and solidarisable with a rack containing a strip of ammunition, a frame comprising a first and a second contiguous and pivoting part relative to one another about an axis parallel to the articulation of the lever so as to allow the easy removal of the tooling , frame comprising means for blocking the pivoting of the parts.

Avantageusement, le poussoir est en contact également avec un second maillon d'une extrémité de la seconde bande.  Advantageously, the pusher is in contact also with a second link of one end of the second band.

Avantageusement, le levier comporte une poignée escamotable.  Advantageously, the lever comprises a retractable handle.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description suivante, description faite en regard des dessins annexées, dessins dans lesquels : The invention will be better understood on reading the following description, description given with reference to the accompanying drawings, drawings in which:

La figure 1 représente un outillage selon l'invention en position ouverte.  Figure 1 shows a tool according to the invention in the open position.

La figure 2 représente un outillage selon l'invention en position ouverte avec deux bandes de munitions et une munition de liaison.  Figure 2 shows a tool according to the invention in the open position with two strips of ammunition and a bonding munition.

La figure 3 représente un outillage selon l'invention en position fermée avec deux bandes de munitions et une munition de liaison.  Figure 3 shows a tool according to the invention in closed position with two ammunition strips and a bonding ammunition.

La figure 4 représente un outillage selon l'invention avec sa première et sa seconde parties pivotées l'une par rapport à l'autre.  Figure 4 shows a tool according to the invention with its first and second parts rotated relative to each other.

La figure 5a représente une vue schématique en coupe transversale d'un casier à munitions équipé d'un outillage selon l'invention lors de la liaison de deux bandes de munitions .  Figure 5a shows a schematic cross-sectional view of an ammunition rack equipped with a tool according to the invention when connecting two strips of ammunition.

La figure 5b représente une vue schématique en coupe longitudinale d'un casier à munitions équipé d'un outillage selon l'invention lors de la liaison de deux bandes de munitions . La figure 5c représente une vue schématique en coupe transversale d'un casier à munitions équipé d'un outillage selon l'invention, lors de son retrait du casier à munition. Selon la figure 1, un outillage de liaison 100 comporte un levier 1 articulé relativement à un bâti 2, bâti 2 comportant un support 3. Le support 3 comporte deux barrettes 15 parallèles fixées au bâti 2 et sur lesquelles sont réalisées des échancrures 16a et 16b qui sont destinées à recevoir et positionner des munitions de la bande. Figure 5b shows a schematic longitudinal sectional view of an ammunition rack equipped with a tool according to the invention when connecting two bands of ammunition. FIG. 5c represents a schematic cross-sectional view of an ammunition locker equipped with a tool according to the invention, when it is removed from the ammunition locker. According to FIG. 1, a linkage tool 100 comprises a lever 1 hinged relative to a frame 2, frame 2 comprising a support 3. The support 3 comprises two parallel bars 15 fixed to the frame 2 and on which are made notches 16a and 16b which are intended to receive and position ammunition of the band.

On remarque sur la figure que chaque barrette 15 comporte une échancrure médiane 16a et deux échancrures latérales 16b et que l'échancrure médiane 16a est située plus basse que les échancrures latérales 16b. Les raisons d'une telle disposition seront précisées plus loin.  Note in the figure that each bar 15 has a median notch 16a and two lateral notches 16b and that the central notch 16a is located lower than the lateral notches 16b. The reasons for such a provision will be explained later.

Le bâti 2 comporte par ailleurs une première et une seconde parties 2a et 2b, contiguës et reliées entre elle par une charnière 4 apte à faire pivoter ces parties l'une par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe 4a parallèle à l'articulation 6 du levier 1.  The frame 2 further comprises first and second parts 2a and 2b, contiguous and connected together by a hinge 4 adapted to rotate these parts relative to each other about an axis 4a parallel to the articulation 6 of the lever 1.

Un moyen de blocage 9 autorise ou bloque le pivotement de la première et de la deuxième partie 2a et 2b l'une par rapport à l'autre. Le levier 1 comporte un poussoir 7 disposé à l'opposé de son extrémité articulée 6, ainsi qu'une poignée de manœuvre 8, poignée escamotable par pivotement relativement au levier 1 autour d'un axe 17.  A locking means 9 allows or blocks the pivoting of the first and second parts 2a and 2b relative to each other. The lever 1 comprises a pusher 7 disposed opposite its articulated end 6, and an operating handle 8, a handle retractable by pivoting relative to the lever 1 about an axis 17.

Selon la figure 2, une extrémité d'une première bande de munitions 10 maillonnées ainsi qu'une extrémité d'une seconde bande de munitions 11 maillonnées sont disposées en travers du bâti 2. On entend par bande de munitions maillonnées, une série de munitions parallèles entre elles et reliées entre elles par des maillons de manière à former une bande de munitions . L'extrémité de la première bande de munitions 10 comporte un maillon vide 10a positionné coaxialement à un maillon vide lia de l'extrémité de la seconde bande de munitions 11 et au- dessus d'une munition 12, dite munition de liaison 12. According to FIG. 2, one end of a first band of ammunition 10 and one end of a second band of ammunition 11 are arranged across the frame 2. A band of ammunition, a series of ammunition parallel to each other and interconnected by links to form a strip of ammunition. The end of the first ammunition strip 10 comprises an empty link 10a positioned coaxially with an empty link 11a of the end of the second ammunition strip 11 and above an ammunition 12, called the link munition 12.

Chaque maillon 10a et lia comporte une ouverture qui est orientée vers la munition de liaison 12. La munition de liaison 12 est calée axialement et radialement par les échancrures centrales 16a du support 3 avec lesquelles elle coopère et visibles à la figure 1. On note que le support 3 comporte des échancrures 16b latérales situées au voisinage des bords de la première partie 2a du bâti 2. Ces échancrures coopèrent avec une munition de chaque bande 10 et 11 afin de caler les bandes 10 et 11 pour des raisons de commodité de maintien en position des bandes 10 et 11 en travers du bâti. Le poussoir 7 du levier 1 est situé dans une première position où il interfère avec le dessus des maillons vides 10a et lia des bandes 10 et 11. Les maillons sont du type décrit par le brevet EP1985960. Each link 10a and 11a has an opening which is oriented towards the connecting munition 12. The connecting munition 12 is wedged axially and radially by the central notches 16a of the support 3 with which it cooperates and visible in FIG. the support 3 comprises lateral notches 16b located in the vicinity of the edges of the first part 2a of the frame 2. These notches cooperate with a munition of each band 10 and 11 in order to wedge the strips 10 and 11 for the sake of convenience of maintenance. position of the strips 10 and 11 across the frame. The pusher 7 of the lever 1 is situated in a first position where it interferes with the top of the empty links 10a and links strips 10 and 11. The links are of the type described by the patent EP1985960.

Chaque maillon comporte un étrier central C et deux étriers latéraux L. L'étrier central C d'un maillon coopérant avec les étriers latéraux L d'un maillon voisin de façon à former une liaison pivot autour de chaque munition. Le maillon vide 10a de la première bande 10 est par exemple un étrier centralEach link comprises a central stirrup C and two lateral stirrups L. The central stirrup C of a link cooperating with the side stirrups L of a neighboring link so as to form a pivot connection around each munition. The empty link 10a of the first band 10 is for example a central stirrup

C et il va interférer avec les étriers latéraux L du maillon vide lia de la seconde bande 11. L'étrier central C du maillon vide 10a est situé sous les étriers latéraux L du maillon vide lia, le poussoir 7 vient en appui sur les étriers latéraux L donc uniquement avec le maillon vide lia ce qui provoquera le clipsage des deux maillons 10a et lia sur la munition. C and it will interfere with the lateral stirrups L of the empty link 11a of the second band 11. The central stirrup C of the empty link 10a is located under the lateral stirrups L of the empty link 11a, the pushbutton 7 bears on the stirrups Lateral L therefore only with the empty link lia which will cause the clipping of the two links 10a and lia on the munition.

Alternativement, pour des bandes de munitions de structure différente, on pourra définir un outillage dont le poussoir sera en contact avec un seul maillon ou bien avec deux maillons à joindre. Alternatively, for ammunition bands of different structure, it will be possible to define tools whose pusher will be in contact with a single link or two links to join.

On peut voir à la figure 3 que le poussoir 7 est situé dans une seconde position suite à l'abaissement manuel du levier 1 vers le bas au moyen de la poignée 8.  It can be seen in FIG. 3 that the pusher 7 is situated in a second position following the manual lowering of the lever 1 downwards by means of the handle 8.

En appuyant ainsi vers le bas, le poussoir 7 a poussé, radialement par rapport à la munition de liaison 12, les maillons vides 10a et lia jusqu'à les placer coaxialement à la munition. Chaque maillon vide 10a et lia est suffisamment élastique pour pouvoir laisser passer la munition de liaison 12.  By pressing downwardly, the pusher 7 pushed, radially relative to the linkage munition 12, the empty links 10a and liia to place them coaxially with the munition. Each empty link 10a and 11a is sufficiently elastic to be able to pass the link munition 12.

On note à la figure 1 que le moyen de blocage 9, lorsqu'il est engagé relie la première partie 2a à la seconde partie 2b et les maintient dans un même plan P . A l'inverse, selon la figure 4, lorsque le moyen de blocage 9 est désengagé il ne relie plus les deux parties 2a et 2b du bâti 2 ce qui permet d' incliner la première partie 2a relativement à la seconde partie 2b. Ainsi, lorsque l'outillage 100 est introduit dans un casier à munitions 14 tel que visible aux figures 5a et 5b pour lier deux bandes de munitions 10 et 11, on peut selon la figure 5c faire pivoter la première partie 2a relativement à la seconde partie 2b pour extraire ou introduire aisément l'outillage 100 sous les bandes de munitions 10 et 11 afin de les lier. It is noted in Figure 1 that the locking means 9, when engaged connects the first portion 2a to the second portion 2b and holds in the same plane P. Conversely, according to Figure 4, when the locking means 9 is disengaged it no longer connects the two parts 2a and 2b of the frame 2 which allows to incline the first portion 2a relative to the second portion 2b. Thus, when the tooling 100 is introduced into an ammunition rack 14 as visible in FIGS. 5a and 5b for linking two ammunition strips 10 and 11, it is possible, according to FIG. 5c, to rotate the first part 2a relative to the second part. 2b to extract or easily introduce the tool 100 under the ammunition strips 10 and 11 to bind them.

Les 2 bandes 10 et 11 sont alors liées entre elles de manière simple, sûre et efficace et cela même dans un environnement exigu tel que celui d'un casier à munitions 14. The two strips 10 and 11 are then interconnected in a simple, safe and effective manner and this even in a small environment such as that of an ammunition rack 14.
