Definitions

  • the invention relates to single barrel magazine-fed, repeating, lever action firearms and lever action non-firearms.
  • the invention particularly relates to lever guns providing quicker use by means of their levers being centred behind the trigger, and thus eliminating additional requirements in gun design, as well as performing force transmission without loss and providing advantage of field by means of the lever arm consisting of a plurality of parts connected to each other via movable hinges.
  • lever action rifles are considered to be under the group of firearms (explosive weapons) and their mechanisms are set and operated by moving their levers around a fixed hinge point by means of pushing with manual force.
  • US patent No. US3287842 entitled: "Knockdown repeating lever action rifle”
  • the divider point is found in front of the trigger and the opening movement is required to be made with a wider angle and at a longer distance.
  • the finger pulling the trigger gets away from the trigger each time, and it is required to be re-adjusted according to the trigger when closed.
  • the target may be lost for the next cartridge shot due to the distance of opening and closing.
  • Another disadvantage is the requirement of complete re-design of the trigger guard and the mechanism for this purpose. Therefore, alteration of size may be required for appropriate operation of the mechanism parts, and thus a cost increasing factor occurs.
  • the invention relates to lever guns, which meet the above said requirements, eliminates all of the drawbacks, and brings some additional advantages.
  • the main purpose of the lever gun according to the invention is to narrow down the lever angle and thus reduce the operating distance by means of centring the divider point of the lever behind the trigger, preferably on the trigger guard.
  • the finger pulling the trigger is not removed from the trigger/trigger guard and thus the need for reaching the trigger again for pulling the trigger next time is eliminated.
  • the time period between the first and second firing is reduced.
  • the rate of hitting the target from the same point without moving the rifle is increased.
  • loss of target is avoided due to short opening and closing distance.
  • Another purpose of the invention is to provide more flexible bending and operating angles by means of the lever arm, which transmits the lever motion to the mechanism, being formed of at least two parts that are connected to each other via movable hinges, and thus ensure that the direction of the movement provided to the mechanism by the lever is only in forward and backward directions. In this way, since movements in upward and downward directions are prevented, a system that can be opened and closed in an easier manner with less amount of applied force is presented and a wider angular motion can be provided. Accordingly, the size of the housing where the lever arm is connected can be reduced.
  • Another purpose of the invention is to minimize the friction forces that make movement harder, by means of forming the movable hinges between the lever arm parts and the divider component at which the lever motion is centred by male and female components. Besides reduced friction, the possibility of loosening of the hinges due to movement and rotation is also reduced. The maintenance and replacement costs are reduced. Moreover, advantage is obtained in demounting of the system.
  • Another purpose of the invention is to provide freedom of connecting from different points to the mechanism such as from upper or lower points, by means of forming some part of the lever arm connected to the mechanism in an angular manner.
  • the lever gun developed comprises a receiver bearing the whole structure and all other components, a mechanism performing the cocking and locking functions, a trigger mechanism performing the firing function, a barrel, through which the fired ammunition is guided towards the target, a magazine storing the ammunition, a lever driving and thus cocking/setting said mechanism, a divider component positioned at the rear side of said trigger mechanism that does not face the barrel, and at which the lever is centred in order to perform rotating motion, and at least two lever arms performing transmission of motion between the lever and the mechanism, and connected to each other via movable hinges.
  • the lever gun (9) shown in a general state in Figure 1 and a demounted state in Figure 2 basically comprises: a receiver (1) bearing the whole structure and all other components, a mechanism (4) performing the cocking and locking functions, a trigger mechanism (13) performing the firing function, a barrel (14), through which the fired ammunition is guided towards the target, a magazine (16) storing the ammunition and a lever (2) driving and thus cocking/setting said mechanism (4).
  • the lever gun (9) comprises: a divider component (8) positioned at the rear side of said trigger mechanism (13) that does not face the barrel (14), and at which the lever (2) is centred in order to perform rotating motion; and at least two lever arms (3) performing transmission of motion between the lever (2) and the mechanism (4), and connected to each other via movable hinges (6).
  • FIG 3 a close-up sectional view of the lever gun (9) is shown.
  • the lever housing (7) formed within the receiver (1) ensures positioning and movement of the lever arm (3) within the receiver (1).
  • the lever arm (3) being formed of a plurality of parts enables keeping the volume of the lever housing (7) at the minimum level and provides advantages in design.
  • the connection of the lever arm (3) with the action bar (5) transmitting its motion to the mechanism (4) is made by means of a rotating action bar connection (10).
  • Figure 7 is the close-up view of the lever arm (3) connected to the action bar (5) found in the lever gun (9).
  • a lever arm extension (31) is formed by forming a part of the lever arm (3) in an angular manner to the lever arm (3) itself. In this way, the lever arm (3) can be connected to the mechanism (4) and the other components found on the lever gun (9) through different angles in order to provide advantages in design.
  • Figure 6a shows a close-up view of the hinge (6).
  • the structure of the hinge (6) formed of a male hinge bolt (61) and a female hinge bolt (62) provides advantages by means of reducing the friction force of the rotating motion during the movement of the lever arms (3).
  • Figure 6b shows a close-up view of the divider component (8).
  • the structure of the divider component (8) formed of a male divider component (81) and a female divider component (82) provides advantages by means of reducing the friction force of the rotating motion during the movement of the divider (2).
  • the lever gun (9) is a single barrel (14) and magazine-fed (16) repeating shotgun. Therefore, after each firing or before firing, the mechanism (4) is required to be set via the lever (2).
  • the lever gun (9) becomes ready for fire after the mechanism (4) is set. All of the components are embedded within the receiver (1).
  • the magazine cap (17) fixes the barrel (14) and the forend (15). While the lever (2) and the lever arm (3) can be connected to each other in a fixed manner as shown in Figure 4 , they can also be connected in a movable manner by means of a hinge (6) providing connection of the lever arms (3) with each other.
  • the lever (2) and the trigger mechanism (13) are connected to each other via a movable divider component (8) from the rear part of the lever gun (9).
  • a movable action bar connection (10) is used for connecting the lever arm (3) with the action bar (5).
  • the lever (2) is pulled downward with the three fingers next to the index finger as shown in Figures 5a, 5b, and 5c .
  • the mechanism (4) and the action bar (5) connected to the lever arm (3) come backward and make the trigger mechanism (13) ready for firing.
  • the mechanism (4) is pulled upward until it contacts the barrel (14) group and thus locking operation is fulfilled.
  • the lever gun (9) is set and made ready for firing.
  • the ammunition required for firing is found in the magazine (16).
  • the ammunition is taken from the magazine (16) and given into the barrel (14) automatically via the trigger mechanism (13) in each setting operation.
  • the user supports the stock (11) and the recoil pad (12) of the lever gun (9) with his/her shoulder and tightly grasps the forend (15). In this way, the lever gun (9) can be held with more support.
  • the ammunition is fired towards the target through the barrel (14) by means of driving the trigger mechanism (13). After firing, each time, the movement of the lever (2) around the divider component (8) is repeated.
