[0020] The utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See also Figure 4A gun barrel structure capable of changing its length comprises a gun barrel first section 1 and a gun barrel extension section 2 which are arranged in sequence, the number of the gun barrel extension sections being multiple, each gun barrel extension section being numbered in a connection sequence, a cartridge chamber 104 and a connection structure being arranged at the rear end of the gun barrel first section 1, the connection structure being used for connecting with a receiver / section sleeve, rifling being arranged in the inner holes of the gun barrel first section 1 and the gun barrel extension section 2, the gun barrel first section 1 and the gun barrel extension section 2 being threadedly connected and fixed in sequence to form a gun barrel body, the rifling in the inner holes of the gun barrel first section 1 and the gun barrel extension section 2 being aligned.

[0022] In the two adjacent sections of the gun barrel body, the first section is provided with an external thread and the second section is provided with an internal thread. The external thread of the first section is connected and fixed with the internal thread of the second section. The facing ends of the first section and the second section are respectively provided with mounting structures 501, and the mounting structures 501 are used to cooperate with the mounting tools. The mounting structure 501 is provided with axially engraved lines 502, and the engraved lines 502 on the first section and the second section are aligned. The first section is provided with a positioning step surface, which is located between the mounting structure 501 and the external thread, and the positioning step surface contacts and positions the end face of the second section.

[0023] In this embodiment, the gun barrel is a gun barrel of a folding pistol. The mounting structure 501 is a notch structure, and the mounting tool is a wrench. The threads on each section of the gun barrel body are single-start, fine-pitch threads. The thread rotation direction on each section of the gun barrel body is opposite to the rotation direction of the rifling. The depth of the internal thread on the second section is greater than the length of the external thread on the first section.

[0024] Preparation method:

[0025] First need to determine the distribution scheme of gun barrel length, this needs to be determined in conjunction with actual needs. For example, a gun barrel of 600 mm in length can be made up of different combinations such as 2 300 mm, 3 200 mm, 1 400 mm plus 2 100 mm. Under the premise of meeting the demand, the number of sections of the gun barrel should be as little as possible. The present embodiment adopts a structure in which a 600-length gun barrel is decomposed into 300+150+150, and the gun barrel length can be changed between 300 mm, 450 mm, and 600 mm.

[0026] The barrel is divided into the barrel head section and the barrel extension section. The barrel head section needs to be processed with the chamber and the connection structure with the receiver or the sleeve. The barrel extension section needs to be processed with the interface connected with the barrel head section or other barrel extension sections. The last barrel extension section can eliminate one connection structure.

[0027] The first section of the barrel is as follows Figure 1As shown, to ensure coaxiality, both the inner hole and the outer circle have machining allowances. The outer circle is machined with notches, holes or other mounting structures that can be used to tighten or loosen the two sections of the gun barrel using tools. This embodiment adopts a notch structure, which can be tightened or loosened using a wrench. One end of the first section of the gun barrel is machined with threads, which can be external threads or internal threads. This embodiment adopts an external thread structure.

[0028] The blank of the barrel extension is as follows Figure 2 As shown in the figure, one end is processed with internal thread and the other end is processed with external thread. The number of threads, direction of rotation, diameter, pitch, precision grade and other parameters need to be kept completely consistent. To ensure the firmness of the connection, the thread is preferably single-start, fine-pitch thread, and the direction of rotation of the thread should be opposite to that of the rifling. It should be noted that the length of the external thread should be slightly greater than the depth of the internal thread to ensure that the rear end face fits tightly after installation.

[0029] according to Figure 3 The barrel blank sections are assembled together and tightened in place according to a certain torque to ensure end face contact. After the multiple barrel blank sections are assembled into a barrel blank of a specific length, the inner holes are finely reamed to make the inner holes of each blank section completely coaxial.

[0030] Straighten the finely reamed barrel blank, and then process the rifling. Due to the existence of threads, the rifling can only be processed by broaching, wire extrusion or electrolysis, and cannot be processed by fine forging, otherwise it will be impossible to disassemble. After the rifling is completed, the outer circle of the barrel is processed based on the axis of the inner bore, and the notches, holes or other structures that can be used to tighten or loosen the two sections of the barrel with tools can be reprocessed as needed. After the above processes are completed, the chamber and other barrel structures can be processed according to the original barrel processing technology. The processed barrel is like Figure 4 As shown, at this time the size and coaxiality of the barrel meet the requirements, and the rifling is aligned.

[0031] Mark the joints of the two barrel sections with a line as a mark for when the barrels are installed, and number the installation sequence at the appropriate locations. Figure 5 shown.

[0032] To change the barrel length:

[0033] When a 450mm barrel length is required, barrel extension section 2 can be unscrewed from the joint position.

[0034] When a 300mm barrel is needed, the barrel extension section 1 can be unscrewed from the joint. At this time, the barrel length is the shortest, so the carrying length of the whole gun is not restricted by the original 600mm barrel length, and the carrying length is directly shortened by 300mm. In combination with the folding stock or other folding mechanism of the gun, the carrying length of the gun can be greatly shortened.

[0035] When needs increase the gun barrel length, use spanner or other tools that the gun barrel extension is screwed on in order, and make the score line to it, the score line alignment can guarantee the coaxiality of the inner chamber and the alignment of the rifling.As when the gun barrel length is 300 millimeters, screwing on the gun barrel extension 1 can become 450 millimeters, then screwing on the gun barrel extension 2 on the gun barrel extension 1 can become 600 millimeters.It should be noted that the gun barrel extension must be installed in order, and the gun barrel first section can not directly install the gun barrel extension 2 in the present embodiment, otherwise the rifling can not be aligned, thereby affects the shooting accuracy.Simultaneously, the gun barrel extension and the gun barrel first section or other gun barrel extension must align the score line after installation, otherwise the shooting accuracy can also be affected.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the utility model.
