Description

[0001] A BARREL TIP ATTACHMENT INTENDED FOR USE IN FIREARMS

[0002] Technical Field

[0003] The invention relates to a barrel tip attachment intended for use in firearms. The attachment may be in the form of a compensator according to the preferred embodiment of the invention.

[0004] Said compensator is an apparatus that allows to reduce the violent recoil force to be created by the high pressure arising during the firing of the firearms (8) by distributing the gases coming out of the barrel tip (7) in the previously calculated directions.

[0005] State of the Art

[0006] In standard firearms, when the trigger is pressed at the time of shooting, the core rubs against the groove-sets in the barrel at a certain rate and at the time of exit, the core is stuck in the barrel mouth, jumps out of the barrel with high pressure and advances to the target. While doing this, most of the gunpowder rations in the hive are wasted and the weapon recoils.

[0007] The resulting recoil may cause the user to shoot themselves by incorrectly holding the firearm and may damage their surroundings. This may harm the user, cause the user to fail to shoot the target, or the user is not allowed to shoot repeatedly.

[0008] The jolting movement caused by the recoil also makes it difficult for the user to shoot at long distances.

[0009] Patent application US2021364246 mentions a firearm comprising an integrated compensator. It is understood from the description set that said embodiment is a mechanism intended for use especially for Glock brand weapons.

[0010] The compensator comprises a slide assembly formed in an integrated structure with the barrel and allowing the gas to be discharged to reduce the recoil associated with the firing of the firearm. Said design is only produced for 4th and 5th generation Glock brand firearms and is not suitable for different weapons.

[0011] The utility model application no. TR 2012 / 09300 discloses a perforated barrel mechanism that dampens the recoil formed in hunting rifles. When the description set of the relevant application is examined, it is understood that the systems used to minimize the effect of recoil caused by firing in automatic hunting rifles containing two holes such as small hole, large hole, and small hole drilled on the barrel where the cartridge is positioned are described.

[0012] As a result of the explosion formed when the shotgun is fired, the compressed gas ignition assembly slot formed in the ignition assembly slot pushes back from the barrel tip while at the same time discharging the pressurized gas.

[0013] During this discharge, it is understood that the recoil pressure formed when the barrel tip is separated from the firing assembly is discharged through two holes: the small hole drilled on the barrel tip and the large hole.

[0014] Patent application US4691614 discloses an unsymmetrical compensator that can be used for pistols.

[0015] According to the description of the application, the compensator with an expanded chamber is intended to be put into the barrel of a pistol. The compensator has a vertical upper port of equal size, symmetrically positioned, aligned with the mating ports on the threaded part of the barrel to vertically discharge the high-pressure gas and produce a downward force that resists the climb of the muzzle.

[0016] The chamber further comprises a pair of unevenly sized, unsymmetrically positioned low- pressure ports through which low-pressure gases are discharged as the projectile leaves the chamber, and it is understood that this can compensate for the rotation produced by the torque produced on the projectile by the grooving of the barrel bore as the projectile accelerates.

[0017] It is understood that the compensator described in patent application US4691614 is in a structure that can be removed and installed. However, it is thought that the embodiment described in patent application US4691614 is not in a structure that can be easily mounted on the gun barrel and creates a connection that is not of sufficient strength.

[0018] Objects of the Invention

[0019] The object of the invention is to create a barrel tip attachment that can be used for attaching attachments such as compensator, flash hider, suppressor, etc. in a different structure to the barrel tip of firearms.

[0020] More specifically, the object of the invention is to create an attachment that can be in the structure of a compensator that will prevent the recoil of the weapon at the time of firing in firearms. With the prevention of this recoil, the invention is aimed at preventing the user from being harmed, to allow him to shoot repeatedly and to increase the target hit rate.

[0021] It aims to reduce the violent recoil force to be created by the high pressure arising during the firing of the firearms and the gases to be released from the barrel bore by distributing them in the previously calculated directions.

[0022] To reduce the barrel roaring and to correct the transitional ballistic value of the fired bullet by directing the same gases to the jolt movement caused by the recoil during the release of the gas. Thus, it is used to achieve a more stable shot by improving the aiming at the target at the maximum level by making the shots made for long distances better.

[0023] The compensator of the invention is formed in an easily removable structure. In this way, the user will be able to easily connect the compensator to the weapon with just a few moves.

[0024] Again, the connection applied for the compensator of the invention is formed in a structure that can be connected with high strength. In this way, the imbalances during the firing of the weapon were reduced or eliminated due to the explosive movements of the parts that provide the connection, such as vibration, movement, etc.

[0051] Description of the Invention

[0052] The invention relates to a barrel tip attachment that can be used for attaching attachments such as compensator, flash hider, suppressor, etc. to the barrel tip of firearms (8).

[0053] The attachment is a compensator according to the preferred embodiment of the invention. Said compensator is an apparatus that allows to reduce the violent recoil force to be created by the high pressure arising during the firing of the firearms (8) by distributing the gases coming out of the barrel tip (7) in the previously calculated directions.

[0054] Figures 1-5 show the application in which the attachment is a compensator.

[0055] The attachment assembly (6) mounted on the barrel tip (7) of the firearms (8) is intended to be connected to the firearm (8) by means of the ring (4).

[0056] The ring (4), which is mounted by turning the barrel tip (7) on the firearm (8), acts as a body for the assembly of other parts. The assembly of the ring (4) to the firearm (8) is described below.

[0057] The ring (4) is placed on the firearm (8) by turning it. The main part (1), which acts as a recoil prevention, is placed in the part of the ring (4) and turned with the ring (4). In this way, the main part (1) is fixed to the firearm (8) by means of the ring (4). Meanwhile, the main part (1) also acts as a body for the locking spring (5) and the locking element (3) to be installed in the section of the spring slide (10) at the bottom.

[0058] After at least one locking spring (5) is placed in the spring slots (11) on the locking element (3); the complete consisting of the locking springs (5) and the locking element (3) is placed in the part of the spring slide (10) under the main part (1). In this way, the movements of the locking element (3) that may occur during the shooting and its negative effect on the user are prevented.

[0059] The locking spring (5) is used according to Figure 3 showing the preferred embodiment of the invention.

[0060] Finally, the outer frame (2) is placed in the main part (1). The locking spring (3) is pressed upwards in order to mount the outer frame (2). After the outer frame (2) is seated in the main part (1), the assembly is completed. The size and positions of the gas discharge holes (9) in the upper parts of the main part (1) and the outer frame (2) parts are one of the most important factors affecting the recoil and the flaring of the firearm (8) at the time of shooting (for compensator application). For this reason, the most important point to be considered when placing the outer frame (2), which is the last part of the assembly, is that the gas discharge holes (9) in the upper parts of the main part (1) and the outer frame (2) overlap. Otherwise, the user cannot use the attachment assembly (6) in the form of a compensator efficiently.

[0061] The above-described embodiment can be given as an example of the preferred embodiment of the invention. The locking element (3) can be operated with the locking spring (5) or fixed by using elements that provide different locking.

[0062] The main part (1) aims to take the ring (4) from one tip. According to this embodiment, the main part (1) is equipped with the primary slot (1.1), the secondary slot (1.2) and the tertiary slot (1.3). Said 3 slots (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) aim to include the assembly details formed on the ring (4).

[0063] For this purpose, the ring (4) is equipped with the ring primary protrusion (4.1), the ring primary recess (4.2) and the ring secondary protrusion (4.3).

[0064] According to Figure 4, the ring primary protrusion (4.1) aims to include the primary slot (1.1). The ring primary protrusion (4.1) is designed in a circumferentially hexagonal form. An edge unit of these hexagonal details aims to be placed in the pit of the primary slot (1.1).

[0065] The secondary slot (1.2) defines a semi-circular surface formed higher than the primary slot

[0066] (1.1). This surface aims to include the ring primary recess (4.2).

[0067] The tertiary slot (1.3) defines a semi-circular surface formed lower than the secondary slot

[0068] (1.2). The ring secondary protrusion (4.3), which is a circular protrusion, aims to be placed in the tertiary slot (1.3).

[0069] The ring (4) aims to take the barrel tip (7) into space. As shown in Figure 3, if the barrel tip (7) has grooves, the inner surface of the ring (4) can also be equipped with structures that enable connection to these grooves. The components of the main part (1) and the components of the ring (4) can be placed in each other and fixed in the outer frame (2) by means of the 2 locking elements (3). Since the ring (4) fixes the barrel tip (7), the firearm (8) and the attachment assembly (6) can be connected by closing the locking element (3).

[0070] The locking element (3) is formed in the outer frame (2) in order to press the ring (4) and the main part (1).

[0071] The lock mounting gap (2.1) is in connection with the spring slide (10) formed within the main part (1). The spring slide (10) is a gap that aims to receive the locking unit (3.2).

[0072] The locking element (3) has the lock body (3.1) in its structure in order to be able to place it in the outer frame (2) by pressing on the main part (1) or the ring (4). The lock body (3.1) further comprises the locking unit (3.2).

[0073] The locking unit (3.2) defines the surface that is wider than the lock body (3.1) and thus the lock mounting gap (2.1). This surface can be equipped with a locking spring or springs (5).

[0074] According to Figure 4, the locking unit (3.2) aims to be placed in the lock mounting gap (2.1). The locking unit (3.2) or its locking springs (5) must provide locking in the outer frame (2) by pressing on the ring (4) and / or the main part (1). With this pressure, the main part (1), the ring (4) and the barrel tip (7) attached to it can be kept together.
