AI Technical Summary
Existing firearm triggers often prevent the fire-control/safety selector from being adjusted to the 'safe' position when the hammer is in the behind or downward position, and require complex geometric dependencies and multiple springs that are difficult to maintain, while also lacking distinguishable two-stage trigger resistance.
A trigger unit design with a rotatable hammer, trigger lever, and sear having a common axis, allowing the fire-control/safety selector to be adjusted to the 'safe' position regardless of the hammer's position, and incorporating a two-stage or three-stage trigger mechanism with distinct resistance levels, using a simplified component arrangement.
Enables secure and easy adjustment of the fire-control/safety selector, reduces component complexity, and provides a reliable, maintainable trigger unit with distinguishable resistance stages, suitable for modular installation in various firearms.
