Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is an apparatus for launching targets or mobile targets for sport shooting.
  • This shotgun shooting is called "shooting with trays or clay pigeons”.
  • the invention aims to solve all the problems associated with format differences in the use of an automatic launcher.
  • the invention therefore aims to create a single launch device which can quickly be adapted to launch American or European platforms.
  • the device according to the invention also makes it possible to store more trays by using, at the level of the tray supply barrel, ten columns for loading trays or targets.
  • the loading of the plates or targets is carried out in a frontal way by simply drawing aside the rods of the barrel.
  • the device according to the invention also makes it possible to very quickly adapt the launcher to trays of different diameter, for example for use of the launcher in the United States or in Europe.
  • the vertical tubes are provided, at their upper end, with a retractable centralizer mounted coaxially with a return spring.
  • the centering device is mounted coaxially to the longitudinal axis of the vertical tube.
  • the centralizer is housed in a hole provided for this purpose in the upper plate of the rotating barrel.
  • the orifice has two notches or lateral oblong holes which allow, after retraction of the centralizer, the release of the tube from the vertical.
  • the vertical tubes have, at their surface, grooves of different shapes and sizes, adapted to the different diameters used for moving targets and, at their lower end, a housing for a holding insert secured to the lower plate, after dismantling the centralizer of the tube or vertical roller, a rotation of the tube on the insert allows to choose the groove which will be in contact with the target.
  • the insert has a male pentagonal shape
  • the housing of the tube has a female pentagonal shape
  • the roller cam is arranged at the periphery of the base plate fixed in rotation, where the barrel releases the moving targets one by one.
  • Said cam has a bean shape.
  • the cam is articulated in rotation in a horizontal plane, around an axis, which can be arranged in several positioning points on the base plate and, depending on the diameter of the target used, the the other end is articulated to a contact arm which presses said cam outwards from the base plate, against the targets, said contact arm acts by means of springs and its pressure on the cam is adjustable.
  • the convex part of the cam is provided with rollers which are in contact with the passing targets.
  • the thickness can also be different.
  • the launching ramp can receive a means acting as a wedge which compensates for the difference in thickness between the conventional target and the other targets.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the launcher according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of the barrel showing the upper plate for holding the rollers or tubes and the lower plate for holding the rollers or tubes.
  • the upper plate seen in profile, has been represented and this, so as to highlight the bores for the passage of the targets, during filling.
  • the lower plate is shown in dotted lines, seen in profile, so as to highlight the bores for the passage of the targets going onto the base plate.
  • Figure 3 is a side view of the target holding tube or roller.
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view of said roller along the axis A-A, the longitudinal axis shown in FIG. 3.
  • Figure 5 is a sectional view, in detail, of the upper end of the tube or roller, showing the retraction of the tube or roller positioning centralizer.
  • Figure 6 is a top view of the upper plate showing the orifice provided in said upper plate of the barrel, as well as the two lateral notches or oblong holes which allow the lateral release of the tube or roller.
  • FIG. 7 is a sectional view along the transverse axis B-B shown in FIG. 3.
  • Figure 8 is a sectional view of the lower end of the roller, showing the housing of the tube or roller, the holding insert of pentagonal shape.
  • the cross-section axis D-D is shown in Figure 4.
  • Figure 9 is a top view showing the fixed base plate in rotation, the roller cam, the targets movable, the guide rollers. This top view is a view along the HH axis shown in FIG. 10.
  • Figure 10 is a sectional view along the axis GG, shown in Figure 9. It highlights the lower roller retaining plate, the roller cam, the base plate, the last target falling by gravity on the base plate, the last target of the column which remains in place and the penultimate target which also remains maintained.
  • Figure 11 is a view according to Figure 10 where the free target is released from the target column, ready to be ejected.
  • Figure 12 is a sectional view according to Figures 10 and 11 where the free target has been ejected.
  • the apparatus for launching clay pigeons or mobile targets 1 for sport shooting is of the type using a rotary barrel 2 on which the mobile targets 1 are loaded.
  • the moving targets 1 are superimposed on each other in columns 3, 4, held by tubes or vertical rollers 5.
  • These vertical rollers 5 are arranged between an upper plate 6 for holding the rollers 5 and a lower plate 7 for holding the rollers 5.
  • the upper plate 6 has bores 8 for the passage of the targets 1, during filling.
  • the plate 6 can be replaced, for example, by radiating arms which laterally hold the targets 1.
  • the lower plate 7 has bores 9 to allow the passage of the moving targets 1 which fall on a base plate 10.
  • the base plate 10 is fixed. In rotation, it has each moving target 1 in front of the launch arm 11 or ejection arm.
  • One or more motors 12 ensure the rotation of the rotary barrel 2 and the movement of the ejection arm 11.
  • the loading of the moving targets 1 is carried out frontally by spacing the upper ends 13 of two adjacent rollers 5 whose fastening means 14 are retractable, so as to allow a lateral clearance of said vertical tubes 5 from the vertical.
  • the vertical tubes or rollers 5 are provided with a retractable fixing means 14.
  • This retractable fixing means 14 is a retractable centering device 14, mounted coaxially with a return spring 15.
  • the retractable centering device 14 is mounted coaxially with the longitudinal axis 16 of the vertical tube 5.
  • the retractable centering device 14 is housed in an orifice 17, provided for this purpose in the upper plate 6 of the rotary barrel 2.
  • the orifice 17 provided for the retractable centering device 14 comprises two notches 18 and 19, or lateral oblong holes, which allow the retraction of the tube 5 from the vertical after retraction of the centering device 14.
  • the vertical tubes 5 have at their surface grooves 21, 22, 23 of different shape and size to adapt the distance between the columns as a function of the diameter of the targets used.
  • a housing 33 is provided for a retaining insert 34.
  • the retaining insert 34 is integral with the lower plate 7.
  • the housing 33 of the vertical tube 5 has a female pentagonal shape.
  • the insert 34 has a male pentagonal shape.
  • the grooves 21, 22, 23 are arranged on the generator of the vertical tube 5.
  • a roller cam 24 is disposed at the periphery 25 of the base plate 10, fixed, in rotation, where the barrel 2 releases the moving targets 1 one by one.
  • Said roller cam 24 has a bean shape.
  • the roller cam 24 is articulated in rotation, in a horizontal plane, around an axis 27 which can be arranged in several positioning points 27 or 28 on the base plate 10 and, as a function of the diameter of target 1 used.
  • This pivot axis 27 is therefore adjustable in positioning 27 or 28.
  • roller cam 24 is articulated to a contact arm 30 which presses said cam 24 outwards from the base plate 10, against the targets 1.
  • Said contact arm 30 acts by means of springs 31, 32 which provide adjustable pressure on the roller cam 24.
  • the convex part 35 of the roller cam 24 is provided with rollers 36 which are in contact with the edge of the targets 1 which pass in front of the roller cam 24.
  • FIGS. 10, 11 and 12 show the release of the last target 1 on the base plate 10 and this, so that it is ejected by the launching arm or ejection arm 11.
  • the lower plate 7 for holding the rollers or vertical tubes 5.
  • This lower plate has bores 9 which allow the passage of targets which descend by gravity.
  • the base plate 10 has a bore 37 which allows one of the moving targets 1 to be free, since it is not in contact with any roller, and to fall on the base plate 10.
  • the column 4 of targets 1 is maintained, for the last target 1, by the base plate 10, for the penultimate target 41, by the contact rollers 36 of the roller cam 24 and, outwards, by an external retaining roller 38, the penultimate target 40 is also maintained, since the penultimate target 41 is maintained. Only the last target 1 is released.
  • the target 1 which is free, falls from the base plate 10 on the launch pad 42.
  • the penultimate target 41 which is held by the rollers 36 and 38 and the penultimate target 40 is also held in place in barrel 2.
  • the launch device can be easily adapted for the use of different types of targets.
  • the launching ramp (42) which is in an inclined plane, can receive a means acting as a wedge, which compensates for the difference in thickness between the conventional target and the others which may be specific to a particular shot or sport.
