AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Striker-fired firearms lack an effective safety mechanism to prevent accidental discharge when dropped, particularly in systems without a cruciform transfer bar.

Method used

A trigger device with a transfer bar featuring a notch that restricts the rearward motion of a trip bar lip, ensuring the firing pin cannot be released accidentally during drops by limiting the rotational and lateral motion of the transfer bar.

Benefits of technology

The mechanism effectively inhibits unintended firing pin release, providing enhanced safety against accidental discharges when the firearm is dropped, even in systems without a cruciform transfer bar.

Abstract

A transfer bar for a trigger device in a striker fired firearm is described. The transfer bar includes a notch proximal a rear end. The notch includes a front edge and a rear edge extending upwardly and forwardly from the transfer bar. The transfer bar is configured to be rotatably coupled at its front end to a trigger module. The notch is shaped to receive a lip from a trip bar. The rear edge of the transfer bar is shaped to restrict rearward motion of the lip to a maximum predefined distance when the transfer bar rotates about the trigger module. A trigger device for a striker fired firearm including the transfer bar is also described.
