External chassis device comprising an internal movable anchoring system for long firearms

Abstract

The invention relates to an external chassis for a long firearm, the precision of which is increased owing to: 1. The incorporation of an external chassis, inside which the firearm is installed. 2. The anchoring of the firearm telescopically inside the external chassis using sliding rings with minimum friction. 3. The inclusion of a movement absorbing element. 4. The inclusion of guide bushings that limit the movement of the firearm to a single axis. With the above elements arranged as shown in the drawings, the inherent recoil produced in a firearm at the moment of firing, owing to the action-reaction effect of the stock-projectile assembly or the stock-discharge system, is suppressed and absorbed by the proposed invention, such that the stock remains immobile and no movement is transmitted to the shooter. As a result, precision is considerably increased and the optical sighting elements are not affected by sudden movements, thereby protecting these elements from possible damage and from being moved out of position. The elements described also ensure that the firearm moves only along the axis of the barrel, thereby guaranteeing precision. In addition, owing to the design of the invention, it can be incorporated not only into firearms having a specific new design, but also into existing firearms.

Claims

1. An external chassis device and internal movable anchoring system for long guns, consisting of a chassis, sliding rings, a kinetic energy absorption element, a plug, and guide bushings, characterized in that the chassis houses a conventional gun which slides coaxially inside the chassis by means of said sliding rings, which in turn are provided with said guide bushings that limit movement of said sliding rings by means of grooves made in said chassis, where sighting elements are fitted on an external upper part of said chassis, and longitudinal movement of the gun us absorbed by said kinetic energy absorption element, wherein the movement of said kinetic absorption element is limited by said plug.

2. An external chassis device: a chassis receiving a long gun, said chassis having an optical sight member for said long gun; said long gun having low-friction sliding rings for mating with said chassis and a guide bushing for sliding in grooves in said chassis, where said long gun slides coaxially within said chassis; a plug coupled to an end of said chassis to limit axial movement of said long gun in said chassis; and an absorbing element in said chassis and oriented between said long gun and said plug to absorb kinetic energy and recoil generated by said long gun and axial movement of said long gun in said chassis.

3. The external chassis of claim 2, wherein said absorbing element is selected from the group consisting of a spring, pneumatic member, air chamber, and electromagnetic element.

4. The external chassis of claim 2, wherein said low-friction sliding rings are provided at a first end of the long gun and a second opposite end of the long gun for sliding in said chassis, and where said guide bushing is coupled to said low-friction sliding rings.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

(14) In view of the figures described above, it can be seen that the EXTERNAL CHASSIS DEVICE WITH INTERNAL ANCHORING SYSTEM FOR LONG GUNS comprises 5 essential parts:

(15) A.Chassis that houses all the elements inside. It provides a linear motion with minimal friction to elements B. It can also provide support for the installation of gripping elements: stock, handguard, pistol

(16) B.Sliding rings. In this case two, which only allow motion along the coaxial axis of the chassis.

(17) C.Conical metal spring, which is installed between the gun, element D, and the plug, element E, and absorbs the movement of the gun, element D.

(18) E.Plug whose mission is to contain element C and which can be used as a fastening element for the gripping systems: cylinder head and/or pistol grip.

(19) F.Guide bushings to prevent torsional movements of the gun inside element A. They can be attached by bolts to element B. They are guided by the grooves of element A.

(20) To aid in the understanding of the invention element D, which is a conventional gun, is also shown.

(21) The invention has been described above according to a preferential embodiment thereof, but admits multiple variations without exceeding the object of the claimed invention. These variations can be:

(22) 1.Absence of a kinetic energy absorption element, element C. Element C is not essential depending on the length of element A, the friction of the rings, elements B and the possibility of compressing air in its final path inside element A.

(23) 2.Number of elements B: from one to several.

(24) 3.Type of element C: it can be a metal spring, a pneumatic spring, an air chamber, and electromagnetic element . . . etc.

(25) 4. Inclusion in element E of an orifice regulating the air flow to adjust the braking speed of element D.

(26) 5. Absence of guide rings bushings that can be replaced by internal recesses in elements B and internal guide grooves in element A.
