Description

1 TARIFF Handguard Configuration for Mounting Modular Additional Systems on AK-Type Rifles Technical Area 5 The invention relates to a handguard design used in AK-type rifles. The invention specifically refers to a modular attachment used in AK-type rifles, mounted under the barrel. Suitable for quick detachment and reattachment of systems (grenade launchers, pump-action shotguns) and has 10 It relates to a handguard structure where modular parts can be assembled. State of the Art AK-type rifles are generally magazine-fed, with gunpowder gases passing through the barrel and releasing 15 gases. The gas piston and mechanism move backward as a result of pressure applied to the piston. semi-automatic communication that can operate automatically and semi-automatically via AK-type rifles are the most popular firearm due to their simple design, easy maintenance, and low cost. It is the most commonly produced and preferred infantry rifle. In the literature review, an example of the current state of the technique is given. Document number WO9905467 can be shown. AK-type rifles already have curved magazines. It has this type of magazine. This type of magazine is positioned at an angle during magazine removal and insertion. It is placed in the reservoir. According to the known state of the art, number US10480897. As mentioned in the document, there are 25 modular add-on systems developed for these types of rifles. There are several compatible handguard types. These systems are based on the original handguards for AK-type rifles. Instead of a cradle structure, it is assembled, and thanks to this, some modular additions The systems can be mounted on rifles. In current technical applications, a 30mm disc is placed under the forend, parallel to the barrel line of the rifle. Modular under-barrel systems will be added to be located on the mid-plane. When required, these systems can accommodate the aforementioned curved magazine and Because it has angular movement when being removed and inserted, it will not restrict the movement of the magazine. It must be mounted further forward on the handguard. Otherwise... However, the modular add-on system located in front of the magazine restricts the magazine's capacity. This situation affects 35 2 the center of gravity of the rifle, which is already heavier with the modular add-on system, is also It places an additional burden on the user because it distances them from the rifle stock. Also, the rifle stock... The modular system is moving away from the user. The user is moving away from the under-barrel modular attachment system. When you want to use it, you are too far from the trigger of this system to pull it. It is difficult. This situation causes the center of gravity to shift 5 degrees away from the user when the trigger is pulled. due to the distance, the firing line of the modular rifle mount system during firing This also causes malfunctions and uncontrolled firing. The current situation... In applications, triggers are used in some modular add-on systems to resolve this issue. The mechanism is positioned close to the trigger of the rifle to which the modular add-on system is attached. This has been attempted to be used. This situation allows the user to have more control over the trigger. 10 It provides an improvement in terms of shifting the center of gravity. It does not offer this.
