Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved firearm, particularly to a new and improved trigger assembly that may be adjusted during assembly and during use to provide a sensitivity adjustment for a firearm, and more particularly to a new and improved trigger assembly for a convertible firearm.
  • Firearms are mostly utilized by law enforcement, sport enthusiasts and private owners for target, game and also self-defence.
  • many of the firearms have its barrel slightly above the wrist of the user. This high placement of the barrel is normally due to the assembly of the trigger mechanism of the firearm. Since recoil force is applied on the gun barrel, a moment is created about the wrist that tends to rotate the gun barrel upward after firing and effort and time are required in re-aiming before firing the firearm again which can be undesirable especially during rapid shooting.
  • This high barrel placement is one of the contributions to inaccuracy in aiming.
  • the trigger travels beyond the point of firing and which requires additional time to allow the trigger to return to its firing position before the user can fire the next round. In situations where rapid firing is required, this additional trigger travel is undesirable as rapid firing can be difficult to achieve with such trigger mechanism.
  • the excess distance travelled beyond the point of firing also causes a fulcrum effect wherein the barrel of the firearm travels downward and sideward path. When the user has managed to accurately aim at the target, the fulcrum effect may cause the aiming to run whereby the bullet usually does not hit the originally targeted area when the user pulls the trigger. This excess trigger travel is also another one of the contributions to inaccuracy when firing.
  • the sensitivity of many firearms is adjustable, due to the complex structural arrangement of these adjustable trigger mechanisms many movements are involved to discharge the firearm. Due to the many movements involved in these firearms, the distance travelled by the trigger to discharge the firearm is not proportional to the distance travelled by the sear to release the hammer from the cocked position and extra effort has to be put in to actuate the trigger to release the hammer from the cocked position and can be difficult for the user to make adjustments to the sensitivity on the field of action.
  • the main objective of this invention is to provide an improved firearm that has a low barrel placement, low trigger travel and proportional sensitivity adjustment.
  • This objective is achieved by providing a trigger assembly in the area that is substantially in front of the trigger.
  • Current firearms do not utilise this area for trigger assembly as most of the trigger assembly are conventionally provided behind the trigger, or the top front area of the trigger with a few of its components extending into the substantial area in front of the trigger. This area is preferred as it allows more space for the assembly as compared to the conventional areas used.
  • It is also desirable to provide a convertible firearm that overcomes the problems faced by the semi-automatic firearms and also provides a trigger mechanism that allows the user to reversibly adjust the trigger pull and travel when a semi-automatic firing mode is selected.
  • the present invention relates to a trigger assembly that is provided substantially in front of the trigger.
  • the trigger is also pivoted at its lower end to allow less effort to move the trigger discharge the firearm.
  • One embodiment of the current invention comprises of a hammer means biased to discharge the firearm and latched from discharging by a sear assembly, a sear assembly comprising of a sear-cam block, a sear-link and a cross-bar that is serially engaged with one another at two engagement means to mutually latch said sear assembly from actuating said hammer means and a trigger means comprising of a trigger and a trigger link in operative contact with said sear assembly to actuate said hammer means.
  • the first end of said trigger link is pivoted to the second end of said trigger, said trigger is pivoted to the housing at its first end, and the second end of said trigger link is pivoted to the first end of said cross-bar.
  • the second end of the cross-bar is biased upwardly.
  • the first end of said sear-link is pivoted to the housing, second end in contact with the second end of the cross-bar to mutually form a first engagement means and is biased forwardly.
  • a sear-cam block of substantially a triangular shape which first angle is pivoted to the housing and second angle in contact with the sear-link to mutually form a second engagement means.
  • the first end of a hammer link is pivoted to the third angle of the sear cam block and the second end of said hammer link is pivoted to a hammer.
  • the hammer link Upon cocking of the hammer, the hammer link is biased towards the third angle of the sear cam block to urge said second angle of said sear cam block to swing upwardly, only to be restrained by the second engagement means.
  • the cross-bar When the trigger is pulled, the cross-bar is pushed towards the sear-link to pivotally move the sear-link to unlatch the second engagement means between the sear-link and sear cam block, thus releasing biased hammer link to throw the hammer to discharge the firearm.
  • the hammer is automatically re-cocked by the explosion of the bullet which forces the second angle of the sear-cam block to swing downwardly and engages with the cross-bar to disengage with the first engagement means and re-engaging the second engagement means, whereby the trigger has to be released to re-engage the first engagement means to discharge another round of firearm.
  • the preferred embodiment of the current invention further comprises of a cross-bar and a means of selecting either one of the cross-bar to be in contact with the second end of said sear-link to form a first engagement means.
  • the additional cross-bar is pivoted at its first end to the second end of said trigger link and the second end of the additional cross-bar is biased upwardly.
  • the lower surface of the second angle of the sear-cam block is provided with different thickness such that when the cross-bar that is closest to the second angle of the sear-cam block is selected to be engageable with the second end of the sear-link to form the first engagement means, the second angle of the sear cam block engages with the selected cross-bar to disengage the first engagement means and re-engaging the second engagement means during the automatic re-cocking of the hammer, and the trigger has to be released to re-engage the first engagement means to discharge another round of the firearm, and when the cross-bar that is furthest to the second angle of the sear-cam block is selected to be engageable with the second end of the sear-link to form the first engagement means, the second angle of the sear-cam block does not engage with the selected cross-bar to disengage the first engagement means and the second engagement means is not re-engaged during the automatic re-cocking of the hammer, and the trigger does not need to be released to discharge another round of the firearm.
  • front refers to any firearm when held in the normal firing position.

  • An adjustable screw as a trigger stop (22) is screwed through the trigger (18) and projects rearwardly out from the trigger (18).
  • the rear portion of trigger stop (22) will touch the wall of the housing (1) to stop the rearward movement of the trigger (18).
  • This adjustable screw (22) allows the clearance between the trigger wall and the trigger stop (22) to be reversibly adjusted to either increase or decrease backward movement of trigger (18), hence, regulating the amount of fulcrum effect.
