Abstract
Description
[0001] A MOUNTING APPARATUS USED FOR MOUNTING FIBER PARTS OF FIREARMS
[0002] Technical Field
[0003] The invention relates to a bead / hindsight fiber mounting apparatus, which is used for fixing the bead / hindsight parts made of fiber to the fiber slots formed on the bead / hindsight of firearms. In particular, the apparatus of the invention is used for the mounting of bead / hindsight parts made of fiber. Different embodiments of the invention can also be used for mounting and fixing fiber parts of different attachments used for firearms.
[0004] State of the Art
[0005] Bead is an element used to improve accuracy in ballistic combat weapons such as pistols and rifles.
[0006] A wide range of hindsight and bead models are available. A line of sight is created according to the shape and position of the bead / hindsight. Phosphorous sighting devices, which provide advantages in low-light environments, can also be used. Fiber bead / hindsight can be used within the current art to create phosphorus engagement devices.
[0007] Fiber weapon sights are small pieces made of fiber material that are usually placed in the hole drilled on the bead / hindsight and help guide the projectile correctly. Bead / hindsight are used to complete the gunsight system in firearms. The purpose of the fiber bead / hindsight produced in different sizes and colors is to facilitate the alignment of the sight towards the target and to ensure that the shot is transmitted to the target.
[0008] Fiber bead / hindsight are suitable for long-term use thanks to their high durability properties. In addition, colored fiber bead / hindsight allow people to target their gunsights in different colors.
[0009] A few important features of the fiber bead / hindsight in firearms are presented below, 1. High visibility: Fiber bead / hindsight have bright colors, allowing the target to be seen better. It makes shooting easier, especially in low light conditions or environments that provide contrast.
[0010] 2. Fast targeting: The fiber material has a special structure that absorbs and reflects light. In this way, fiber bead / hindsight allow the sights to focus on the target more easily and quickly.
[0011] 3. Durability: Fiber bead / hindsight are usually made of polymer or glass fiber and are therefore durable. It can be used for a long time by resisting shocks and vibrations.
[0012] 4. Color options: Fiber bead / hindsight can be produced in different colors, thus allowing the user to choose the color suitable for their gunsights according to their preference.
[0013] Primitive methods are used to mount the fiber parts included in the ordinary state of the art. Within the scope of these methods, fiber parts produced in a structure suitable for the weapon are fixed by heating with combustible material such as candle, lighter, etc. after placing them in the fiber slot formed on the bead / hindsight and then allowing them to cool. Afterwards, the bead / hindsight are mounted on the weapon.
[0014] However, this method, which is used within the current art, is operated intensively by human labor. First of all, the intensive operation of this process may cause an increase in the total cost of the application.
[0015] Again, since the application time of this process, which is operated intensively by human labor, will increase (it takes about 5 minutes to install each fiber in the bead / hindsight), the production time required for the installation of the fiber particle on the bead / hindsight increases.
[0016] During this application, which is operated intensively, the rate of human-based product errors increases significantly. Since it will not be possible to treat the fiber with tools such as cigarette lighters at the appropriate temperature at the appropriate time, problems arise in the product due to melting or incomplete heat. In this deficiency, fiber applications that are insufficient in terms of aesthetic appearance can be experienced. Again, the application is made with tools such as human ingenuity and lighters, and the creation of a standard product may cause each application to have a different appearance.
[0017] It is understood that patent application US2014317989 mentions a light-condensed fiber optic vision system. It is understood that a fiber part is used to form an bead / hindsight within the application.
[0018] Problems to be solved by the Invention
[0019] The object of the invention is to provide a bead / hindsight fiber mounting apparatus used for fixing the fiber parts after assembly of the fiber parts to the bead / hindsight slots formed on the weapon.
[0020] The apparatus of the invention can fix the fiber part to the fiber slots of the bead / hindsight by applying heat at the pre-set time and temperature according to the size and structure of the fiber particle in accordance with the feature of the weapon to be applied. Again, since the location of the heating elements and the distance of the part to be heat treated to the heating element will be preset, the effect of the heat on the fiber part can be fixed.
[0021] In this way, product standardization can be provided for each product in the production process.
[0022] Also, with the use of the apparatus subject to the invention, production errors are minimized. Due to excessive heat application, melting and fixing deficiencies were eliminated as a result of incomplete thermal application. In this way, it has been possible to create a more advantageous product in terms of aesthetic appearance.
[0023] On the other hand, the use of the apparatus subject to the invention minimizes the need for manpower during the application. In this way, human-based production errors and production costs are reduced.
[0024] Also, reducing the human factor in the production process reduced the time needed for the application. While the application time required for each product is 5 minutes using the existing application methods, the application time can be shortened to 8-10 seconds with the use of the apparatus subject to the invention.
