Description

The invention relates to weapons without the use of explosive propelling charge and can be used for silent hunting for big game and for sports shooting at targets.

The whole variety of methods of shooting bullets (bronze, iron stone balls) and arrows without using an explosive throwing charge is described in the book [Ralph Payne-Galloway, Book of crossbows (the history of medieval throwing weapons) http://mreadz.com/new/index.php? id = 20200 & pages = 43]. It also describes a method of shooting balls from a crossbow, in which two bowstrings are pulled between the bow shoulders, between which a leather pocket for a bullet and a double loop are installed, which are manually hooked onto the lock latch that holds the stretched bowstring, and then releases it by pulling the trigger .

The considered method allows you to throw both bullets and arrows. The disadvantages of the method is the need to use the elastic properties of the shoulders of the bow and two bowstrings, which affects the weight of the weapon.

A known method of shooting balls and arrows, implemented in the arquebus [ru.wikipedia.org, arquebus]. A metal trunk with two longitudinal slots on the sides is attached to the front of the arquebus bed. A special cylinder is placed inside with a slip, to the protrusions-ears of which, emerging from the slots of the trunk, a bow string is attached. The trigger mechanism is standard for crossbows.

Arkebuz allows you to shoot as standard for crossbows bolts (arrows), and stone or lead bullets. Charging the arquebus is carried out in a cocked state through the muzzle, a shot from it - by pressing the trigger lever. The disadvantages of the method is the need to use the elastic properties of the shoulders of the bow, as well as the barrel and the metal cylinder, which affects the weight of the weapon.

A known method of shooting balls and arrows, implemented in slingshots [ru.wikipedia.org, slingshot], adopted as a prototype in conjunction with the method described above in the book [Ralph Payne-Galloway], in which a ball or shank of the arrow in the skin is placed, capture fingers of the skin, stretch elastic throwing ropes connected to the skin and, releasing the skin, produce a shot.

The method specified in the prototype allows you to throw both bullets and arrows. The main advantages of the method of firing a slingshot as a throwing weapon include:

- A fairly high projectile departure speed - from 60 to 120 m / s.

- Ease of manufacture, low cost.

- Compactness.

- Practical noiselessness (only light cotton of rubber, which is very important when hunting).

- The availability and versatility of shells, and many are also free: round stones, nuts, etc.

- Does not require energy sources (batteries, gunpowder).

- Throwing harnesses are easy to repair or change.

The disadvantages of the method is the need to hold the projectile, pulling the propelling tourniquet and releasing the projectile with your fingers, which affects the accuracy of hitting the target.

The invention is aimed at improving the efficiency of using elastic throwing ropes when shooting balls and arrows.

The technical result of the invention is to improve the accuracy of shooting balls and arrows and reduce the weight of the structure.

The technical result is achieved due to the fact that in the method of shooting balls and arrows, in which the ball or the shank of the arrow is placed in the skin, stretch elastic throwing ropes connected to the skin and, releasing the skin, fire a shot according to the invention of the skin with the ball or shaft of the arrow between the front ends of two identical two-shouldered levers with recesses for the ball or shank of the boom, the levers are pivotally mounted in the holder, each on its own axis, mounted in the holder, which is installed Lebanon on the housing, is inserted between the rear ends of the latch arms, is moved in the direction of its axis than kozhetok clamped between the front ends of the levers. Pull elastic throwing ropes at other ends and fix the other ends on the body, then, moving the latch away from the axes, release the rear ends of the levers, which creates the conditions for the release of the skin with a ball or arrow from the front ends of the levers.

The technical result is also achieved due to the fact that at the ends of the elastic throwing ropes they form a loop, each rope is pulled separately and the loops are fixed on the ends of the staghorn mounted on the remote part of the body in the direction of the shot.

The technical result is also achieved due to the fact that the elastic throwing ropes or threads connected to the ends of the elastic throwing ropes are placed on the recesses made around the circumference of two rollers, which are placed on the remote part of the body in the direction of the shot, connect the ends of the strands or threads with a movable element located in the grooves on the lower part of the housing, move the movable element, pull the harnesses and fix them by snapping the movable element onto the housing.

The technical result is also achieved due to the fact that the threads are wound on a drum through a ratchet. At the same time, the drum is twisted both manually and with the help of an electric motor through a gearbox.

For a more reliable capture of the arrows on the shanks of the arrows perform a thickening of the size of the balls.

For a more accurate and reliable aiming, a laser pointer is installed on the back of the case or on the remote part of the case.

Thus, the invention has the following common features with the prototype:

1. Position the ball or shank of the boom in the skin;

2. Stretch elastic throwing ropes connected to the skin;

3. Release the skin, produce a shot.

The invention has the following differences from the prototype:

1. The skin with the ball or the shank of the boom is placed between the front ends of two identical two-arm levers with recesses for the ball or shank of the boom, the levers are pivotally in the holder, each on its own axis, mounted in a holder that is mounted on the body;

2. Insert a latch between the rear ends of the levers, move it to the side of the axles, thereby clamping the skin between the front ends of the levers;

3. Pull elastic throwing ropes at other ends and secure the other ends to the body;

4. By moving the latch away from the axes, the rear ends of the levers are released, which creates the conditions for the release of the skin with a ball or arrow from the front ends of the levers.

Differences from the prototype prove the novelty of the claimed technical solution, as described in the claims.

The new approach provides an increase in the efficiency of using elastic throwing ropes when shooting with balls and arrows, which consists in increasing the accuracy of shooting balls and arrows and reducing the weight of the structure by securing the skin with the ball or arrow in the trigger lock and releasing the skin with the trigger, which confirms its compliance with the patentability condition “industrial applicability”.

The method is illustrated by drawings, where:

In FIG. 1 shows a section AA, in FIG. 2 is a diagram realizing the fixation of a skin with a ball or arrow;

In FIG. 2 shows a diagram of the tension of elastic throwing tows with the fastening of their ends on the stag;

In FIG. 3 shows a diagram of the tension of elastic throwing tows through blocks;

In FIG. 4 is a diagram of the tension of elastic propelling tows through threads and blocks;

In FIG. 5 is a diagram of the tension of elastic propelling tows through threads by winding them onto a drum;

In FIG. 6 is a diagram of an arrow with a bulge on the shank.

In FIG. 1 ball 1 (the numbering of elements in all the drawings is through) or the shank of the boom 25 is embedded in the skin 2, to which elastic throwing ropes 3 are attached. The skin 2 is placed between the front ends of two levers 4 located on the axles 5, mounted in the holder 6, which is installed on the housing 7. Between the rear ends of the levers 4 is a latch 8, with a handle 9 at its other end, connected to the trigger 10.

In FIG. 2 at the ends of the elastic throwing ropes 3 form loops 11, which are fixed at the ends of the flyer 12 mounted on the remote part of the housing 7 in the direction of the shot. Above the locking mechanism, a laser pointer 13 of the target is mounted. The trigger 8 is attached to the latch 8 on the axis 14, which is connected with the second end to the axis 16 on the protrusion of the housing 7.

In FIG. 3 elastic throwing rods 3 through blocks 17 are attached to the slider 18, which is fixed by a hook 19 to the protrusion of the housing 7. Here, the trigger 15 is rigidly connected to the spring-loaded slide 20, and the laser pointer 13 of the target is installed in front of the housing 7.

In FIG. 4, the threads 21 are attached to the ends of the elastic throwing ropes 3, which are connected through the blocks 17 to the slider 18. The use of threads is more appropriate, since the tension of the elastic throwing ropes through the blocks (Fig. 3) will lead to rapid wear of the bundles. However, the tension of the elastic throwing ropes directly through the blocks allows to reduce the size of the structure.

In FIG. 5 threads 21 are connected to a rotating drum 22, which can be driven into rotation by a handle 23 or an electric motor with a gearbox. The drum is fixed against reverse rotation by a ratchet mechanism 24.

In FIG. 6 on the shank of the boom 25, a thickening 26 is made in the form of a ball and the size of the ball, preferably winding from a thread on the glue.

The method is implemented as follows:

Ball 1 or shank 26 of boom 25 is placed in skin 2 (Fig. 1). The skin 2 is placed between the front ends of the levers 4. The latch 8 is moved by acting on the handle 9 towards the axles 5, while the rear ends of the levers 4 diverge to the sides, and the front ends of the levers 4 reliably clamp the skin 2 with the ball 1 or shank 26 of the arrow 25. Next, the elastic throwing ropes 3 are tensioned either one by one (Fig. 2), followed by fastening the loops 11 at the ends of the flyer 12, or through blocks 17 by moving the slider 18 (Fig. 3), fixing it with a hook 19 to the body 7, or through blocks 17 thread tension 21 (Fig. 4), attach ennyh to the ends of the elastic throwing bundles 3 or winding threads 21 on the drum 22 (FIG. 5) via the ratchet handle 24, rotation of the drum 23 or motor with gear.

Aiming is carried out by pointing the light spot of the laser pointer 13 on the target.

The release of the skin 2 with the ball 1 or arrow 25 is carried out by moving the latch 8 away from the axes 5 of the levers 4, for which the trigger 15 is pulled towards the handle of the housing 7. In this case, the rear ends of the levers 4 are closed and the front ends are opened, releasing the skin.

Thus, in the present invention, an increase in the efficiency of using elastic throwing ropes when shooting balls and arrows is achieved by increasing the accuracy of shooting balls and arrows using aiming and reducing the weight of the structure.
