Retaining apparatus for ammunition bodies
A holding device for munition bodies, having two holding shells which are movable relative to one another and which form a holding region in which a munition body can be held, wherein the holding shells are rotatable about a common axis of rotation, wherein the axis of rotation of the holding shells runs through the holding region. Moreover, the disclosure relates to a magazine having a holding device, to a projectile lift having a holding device, and to a method for holding munition bodies.
PROJECTILE LIFT
A projectile lift for vertically moving ammunition elements between two storage levels of a magazine comprising a receiving tray for receiving an ammunition body and a retaining device for retaining the ammunition body, wherein the retaining device can vertically lift the ammunition elements away from the receiving tray. The disclosure also relates to a magazine including a projectile lift and a method for vertically moving ammunition elements.

MUNITIONS RACK WITH STRUCTURAL ELEMENT AND INSERTABLE EJECTORS
A munitions rack includes a munitions rack structure that houses multiple compact ejectors. The structure includes a pair of internal longitudinal ribs, inboard of a pair of external longitudinal ribs. A spine of the munitions rack structure links all the ribs, and the munitions rack structure may be formed out of a single piece of material. The ribs define a pair of side recesses on the port and starboard sides of the bomb, which each may be further subdivided into a forward pocket and an aft pocket. Removable ejectors are located in the pockets. The ejectors may receive pressurized gas from pressurized gas source(s) located outside of the ejectors. The ejectors may each have multiple forward pistons and multiple aft pistons. The ejectors may include pitch control valving to control the relative amounts of pressurized gas sent to the forward piston(s) and aft piston(s).
