Detailed Implementation
[0027] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] See Figures 2-12A fault-clearing device for spaceborne weapons. To achieve fault-clearing of spaceborne weapons, the guide rod seat has a positioning cylindrical surface to ensure the coaxiality of the inner hole of the lead screw nut in the guide rod seat with the lead screw on the lead screw motor. The inner hole of the guide rod seat has two parallel planes to restrict the circumferential rotation of the lead screw nut and guide the lead screw nut to move axially along the lead screw under the drive of the lead screw motor.
[0029] The lead screw nut has two parallel planes to limit its circumferential movement under the drive of the lead screw motor.
[0030] The lead screw motor has a positioning cylindrical section near the motor side to ensure the coaxiality of the lead screw motor and the guide rod seat. The lead screw end face of the lead screw motor has a directional sliding fitting cylindrical section to reduce the radial runout when the lead screw motor rotates at high speed.
[0031] The bullet-catching door of the faulty bullet receiving device is provided with a rotating clearance arc surface b to ensure that the bullet-catching door does not interfere with the bullet-catching door mounting box when rotating. It is provided with an anti-reverse positioning surface a to prevent the sniper bullet in the faulty bullet collection box from escaping. It is provided with a rotation limit surface c, that is, the two bullet-catching doors of the faulty bullet collection device can each rotate 90° in one direction around their own rotation axis. It is provided with a torsion spring mounting groove d, and the anti-reverse positioning surface a of the bullet-catching door contacts the limit surface e of the bullet-catching door mounting box under the action of the torsion spring.
[0032] The ballistic door mounting box has a reversing limiting surface e. During assembly, the ballistic door surface a contacts the ballistic door mounting box surface e to restrict rotation. Simultaneously, after the ballistic door has rotated to its unidirectional position, the ballistic door surface c contacts the ballistic door mounting box surface e to restrict further rotation. The ballistic door mounting box has two × Φ3 through holes f and g. The ballistic door pin is interference-fitted with these holes to assemble the ballistic door and ballistic door spring. The ballistic door mounting box 8 has a connection port h at one end corresponding to the spaceborne weapon, used to connect the ballistic door.
[0033] This spaceborne weapon employs a lateral movement chamber structure. During loading, the control system moves the chamber to the feeding position. After loading, the control system moves the chamber to the firing position for firing. When a faulty round needs to be cleared, the spaceborne weapon control system sends a command to move the chamber to the faulty round clearing position. Upon receiving the chamber clearing command from the control system, the lead screw motor of the fault clearing device rotates. The lead screw nut, due to the anti-rotation plane of the guide rod seat, rotates axially in a linear motion, driving the guide rod back and forth to clear the faulty sniper round. The guide rod's stroke is controlled by signal pulses from the lead screw motor to determine the number of rotations. After the lead screw motor moves the guide rod to the correct position, the control system sends a command to reverse the lead screw motor. After retracting to the correct position, the lead screw motor transmits the position signal to the main control system, which then controls the chamber to enter the normal operating cycle. The system workflow is as follows: Figure 1 .
[0034] Installation and disassembly process:
[0035] Installation: Assemble the lead screw nut at the appropriate position on the lead screw motor. Assemble the directional sliding sleeve on the lead screw end face of the lead screw motor. Secure the guide rod and lead screw nut together with two M3 screws. After assembling the above parts, rotate the lead screw nut to the left limit position. Figure 2 (Front view determines left and right). The guide rod seat is connected to the lead screw motor with screws. Finally, the guide rod sleeve is assembled, and then the above assembly components are assembled onto the spaceborne weapon body assembly. For the faulty ammunition receiving device installation, the bullet-catching door, bullet-catching door pin, and bullet-catching door spring are assembled into the bullet-catching door mounting box according to their respective positions. The assembled bullet-catching door mounting box is then assembled into the faulty ammunition collection box, and finally, the above assembly components are assembled onto the spaceborne weapon body assembly.
[0036] Disassembly: Use an Allen wrench to unscrew the screw connecting the electric push rod to the spaceborne weapon body, remove the electric push rod, remove the electric push rod guide rod sleeve, remove the guide rod seat and the screw connecting the lead screw motor, and remove the guide rod seat. After completing the above operations, remove the directional sliding sleeve, lead screw, lead screw nut, and guide rod in sequence. Unscrew the screw connecting the faulty ammunition receiver to the spaceborne weapon body, remove the connecting pin between the bulletproof door mounting box and the faulty ammunition collection box, remove the bulletproof door mounting box, remove the connecting pin between the bulletproof door and the bulletproof door mounting box, and remove the left and right bulletproof doors and torsion springs.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
