F41A9/04
Installation provided with linkless ammunition loading system
The installation includes a traversing portion configured to be rotatably mounted and supported on a stationary support structure, to rotate about a traversing axis. An elevating portion is rotatably supported by the traversing portion about an elevating axis perpendicular to the traversing axis. A firearm assembly supported by the elevating portion has a barrel configured to fire linkless ammunitions through firearm assembly. A magazine is configured to contain a plurality of linkless ammunitions to be fed to the barrel. A feeding assembly is configured to transfer the linkless ammunitions from the magazine to the barrel. The magazine is carried by the traversing portion and is operatively integral therewith. The feeding assembly is carried by the elevating portion and is operatively integral therewith. A transfer device mounted on the traversing portion is configured to transfer the linkless ammunitions (A) from the magazine to the feeding assembly.

Arrangement for feeding ammunition to a weapon
Disclosed is an arrangement for feeding ammunition to a weapon. The weapon is mounted to an elevation device arranged to allow elevation movement of the weapon about an elevation axis. The arrangement includes a feeding chute connected at one end to the weapon. The feeding chute includes a set of elements assembled together in a stacked configuration. The set of elements is arranged about a shaft configured to be concentrically arranged relative to the elevation axis so as to allow movement of individual elements of the set of elements about the shaft in connection to elevation movement of the weapon about the elevation axis. The invention also relates to a vehicle with an arrangement according to the present invention.
