Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of military equipment technology, specifically to a closed-circuit sniper rifle silencer. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, domestically produced gun suppressors face several challenges in design and manufacturing, primarily in their unsatisfactory silencing effect. While existing suppressors can partially reduce firing noise, this effect is not significant and often fails to achieve the desired concealment. This is mainly attributed to their internal structural design's inability to effectively regulate the exhaust velocity and expansion process of the combustion gases, thus limiting improvements in silencing performance.

[0003] Another significant problem lies in the complexity of the internal structure, which leads to increased processing difficulty and reduced production efficiency. Traditional mufflers typically contain multiple delicate components, the manufacture of which requires high-precision processes. This not only increases processing costs but also easily leads to extended production cycles due to the complexity of the manufacturing process, hindering large-scale production and rapid response to market demands.

[0041] The terms used in this application, such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and "middle," are generally used to indicate the general relative positional relationship for the purpose of intuitive understanding by referring to the accompanying drawings, and are not absolute limitations on the positional relationship in the actual product.

[0042] A closed-loop sniper rifle suppressor, comprising a hollow tubular structure. (See reference) Figures 1-2 The muffler includes a housing 1, which is a smooth cylindrical tube with smooth inner and outer walls. Multiple first exhaust holes are formed on the side walls of the cylindrical tube. Internal threads protruding from the inner wall of the housing 1 are provided on both the front and rear end faces of the housing 1. The internal thread at the front end is the first internal thread 2, and the internal thread at the rear end is the second internal thread 3. In this embodiment, the housing 1 has a length of 225 mm, an outer diameter of 48 mm, and an inner diameter of 46 mm; the first internal thread 2 protrudes 0.5 mm from the inner wall of the housing 1 and is 10 mm long; the second internal thread 3 protrudes 3 mm from the inner wall of the housing 1 and is 2 mm long.

[0043] The outer casing 1 is equipped with a nozzle connector 4, a gas distribution chamber 5, a pressure reducing chamber 6, and a plug 7 to perform multi-stage pressure reduction on the gas.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 Specifically, the pressure-reducing chamber 6 is a tubular structure with a smooth inner wall, and multiple second exhaust holes are provided on it. Multiple first spacer rings 8 are axially spaced on the outer wall of the pressure-reducing chamber 6. The end walls of the first spacer rings 8 are tightly attached to the inner wall of the outer shell 1, serving to separate the side walls of the pressure-reducing chamber 6 from the outer shell 1, leaving a gap between them for the gas to pass through. This gap constitutes a three-stage gas chamber for the gas. The pressure-reducing chamber 6 is coaxially arranged with the outer shell 1, its length is less than the length of the outer shell 1, and neither its front nor rear end faces exceed the front and rear end faces of the outer shell 1.

[0045] In this embodiment, the decompression chamber 6 has a length of 210mm, an outer diameter of 37mm, and an inner diameter of 34mm; the height of each first spacer ring 8 is 2mm, the distance between the foremost first spacer ring 8 and the front end face of the decompression chamber 6 is 35mm, and the distance between the last first spacer ring 8 and the rear end face of the decompression chamber 6 is 33mm; the outer diameter of each first spacer ring 8 is 44.95mm.

[0046] Reference Figures 4-6 The gas distribution chamber 5 is coaxially fixed inside the pressure reducing chamber 6 and includes a first pipe fitting 9, a second pipe fitting 10, a movable part 11, and a fixed part 12. The first pipe fitting 9 and the second pipe fitting 10 are each composed of two pipe fittings of different sizes, and are coaxially fitted and fixed, with the first pipe fitting 9 positioned in front of the second pipe fitting 10. Second spacer rings 13 are coaxially spaced along the outer walls of both the first pipe fitting 9 and the second pipe fitting 10, with their end walls tightly against the inner wall of the pressure reducing chamber 6. These spacer rings separate the side walls of the first pipe fitting 9 and the second pipe fitting 10 from the pressure reducing chamber 6, creating a gap for the gas to pass through; this gap is the secondary gas chamber. In addition, multiple third exhaust holes are provided on the side walls of the first pipe fitting 9 and the second pipe fitting 10, and the interiors of the first pipe fitting 9 and the second pipe fitting 10 are the primary gas chambers.

[0047] The fixing member 12 is fixedly installed inside the first pipe fitting 9, and the diameter of the front end of the fixing member 12 is smaller than the diameter of the rear end, for the purpose of reducing gas pressure. In this embodiment, two fixing members 12 are provided, which are distributed axially at intervals inside the first pipe fitting 9, thereby playing a role in multi-stage pressure reduction.

[0048] Reference Figures 7-8 The movable component 11 can slide axially back and forth within the second pipe fitting 10. A return spring (1mm thick, 24mm in diameter) is provided between the movable component 11 and the inner wall of the second pipe fitting 10 to give the movable component 11 a forward tendency. Specifically, the movable component 11 includes a core 14 and a sleeve 15. The diameter of the front end of the core 14 is smaller than that of the rear end, which is used to reduce the pressure of the gas. The sleeve 15 is fitted onto the outer wall of the rear end of the core 14 and is fixedly connected to the core 14.

[0049] In this embodiment, the total length of the first pipe fitting 9 is 100 mm, and the total length of the second pipe fitting 10 is 105 mm. The front end of the second pipe fitting 10 is embedded in the first pipe fitting 9, and after fitting, the total length of the air distribution chamber 5 is 200.69 mm. The height of the second spacer ring 13 is 2 mm, and the outer diameter is 34 mm. The length of the fixing member 12 is 20 mm, the inner diameter of the front end is 9 mm, the inner diameter of the rear end is 19 mm, and the outer diameter is 22 mm. The total length of the movable member 11 is 55 mm.

[0050] Furthermore, the first exhaust port, the second exhaust port, and the third exhaust port are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0051] Reference Figures 9-10 The muzzle connector 4 is installed at the front end of the outer casing 1, with its end extending into the gas distribution chamber 5, for connecting the muzzle. The muzzle connector 4 consists of three coaxial rings with different outer diameters connected and fixed to each other. The outer diameters of the three rings decrease sequentially from front to back, including a primary ring, a secondary ring, and a tertiary ring. The primary ring is used to mate with the muzzle, extending into the first internal thread 2 inside the outer casing 1 and abutting against the front end of the pressure reducing chamber 6; the secondary ring extends into the pressure reducing chamber 6 and abuts against the front end of the gas distribution chamber 5; the tertiary ring extends into the gas distribution chamber 5. In addition, the muzzle connector 4 has multiple fourth exhaust holes 16 arranged circumferentially. One end of each fourth exhaust hole 16 faces radially toward the inside of the outer casing 1 (i.e., inside the tertiary gas chamber), and the other end faces axially toward the inside of the gas distribution chamber 5 (i.e., inside the primary gas chamber). When the gas enters the gas distribution chamber 5, some of the gas is blocked by the fixing member 12, enters forward into the fourth exhaust hole 16, and enters the tertiary gas chamber along the fourth exhaust hole 16, and is discharged from the first exhaust hole.

[0052] In this embodiment, the length of the primary, secondary, and tertiary rings is 10 mm, and the inner diameter is 20 mm. The outer diameter of the primary ring is 46 mm, the secondary ring is 35 mm, and the tertiary ring is 28 mm. The fourth exhaust holes 16 are evenly distributed circumferentially in an axisymmetric structure, with a distance of 23 mm between the bends of two opposite fourth exhaust holes 16, and a diameter of 1.2 mm.

[0053] Reference Figure 11 and Figure 12The plug 7 is installed at the rear end of the outer casing 1, and it is also provided with multiple fifth exhaust holes 21. The front end of the plug 7 extends into the air distribution chamber 5. The front end of the plug 7 is provided with a valve 17 for closing its own opening, and the movable part 11 in the air distribution chamber 5 is used to open and close the valve 17. Specifically, the plug 7 includes a positioning part 18 and a sealing part 19 that are fixed to each other and have different outer diameters. The positioning part 18 is embedded in the second internal thread 3 at the rear end of the outer casing 1, and a positioning groove 20 is formed on the front end face of the positioning part 18. The rear ends of the pressure reducing chamber 6 and the air distribution chamber 5 are both inserted into the positioning groove 20. The sealing part 19 extends into the air distribution chamber 5, and the valve 17 is installed on the sealing part 19.

[0054] Valve 17 is rotatably connected to the sealing part 19, and a coil spring is provided between the rotating shaft of valve 17 and the sealing part 19 to limit the closure of valve 17. In the free state of the coil spring, valve 17 is in the open state, and the opening direction is forward. To ensure that valve 17 can be closed normally when the moving part 11 is pressed down, the opening angle of valve 17 is set to be less than 90°.

[0055] In this embodiment, the plug 7 has a length of 17 mm and an inner diameter of 9 mm. The sealing part 19 is 10 mm long, and the positioning part 18 is 7 mm long.

[0056] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: before firing, there is a certain distance between the movable part and the plug 7 under the action of the return spring, at which time the valve 17 is opened.

[0057] After firing, the bullet passes through the inside of the silencer and is ejected, while the combustion gases enter the silencer directly. Some of the combustion gases are blocked by the fixing component 12, enter the fourth exhaust port 16, and then enter the gap between the outer shell 1 and the pressure reducing chamber 6 (i.e., the third-stage gas chamber), where they are discharged through the first exhaust port. Most of the combustion gases pass through the fixing component 12 and remain in the first-stage gas chamber.

[0058] Driven by the gas, the moving part 11 moves backward and pushes the valve 17 to close. At this time, the outlet at the rear end of the silencer is blocked, and the gas inside can only be discharged according to the preset route (which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here): the gas first passes through the third exhaust port on the gas distribution chamber 5. The third exhaust port depressurizes the gas coming out of the nozzle and guides it in sections to enter the secondary gas chamber. Subsequently, the gas between the gas distribution chamber 5 and the depressurization chamber 6 (i.e., the secondary gas chamber) will pass through the second exhaust port. The second exhaust port further depressurizes the gas discharged from the gas distribution chamber 5 and discharges it to enter the tertiary gas chamber. Finally, the depressurized gas between the depressurization chamber 6 and the outer shell 1 (i.e., the tertiary gas chamber) is discharged through the first exhaust port.

[0059] As a result, the exhaust speed and expansion speed of the gas are reduced, the sonic boom is reduced, and the sound is decreased.

[0060] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
