Abstract

1,251,176. Gun and loading device combination. SOC. D'ETUDES ET D'APPLICATIONS TECHNIQUES. 3 June, 1970 [4 June, 1969], No. 26688/70. Heading F3C. A gun 2 is combined with a loading device which includes at least one carriage 10, 12 movable substantially horizontally and transversely of the gun, the or each carriage having a mechanism 19, 22; 20, 23 for gripping a shell 6 or cartridge 7 contained in one of a plurality of racks 4a, 5a beneath the carriage(s) and extracting it from the rack. The loading mechanism further comprises at least one further carriage 25, 26 movable substantially horizontally in a vertical plane passing through the longitudinal axis of the gun barrel, the or each further carriage 25, 26 consisting of two parts 25a, 25b; 26a, 26b for gripping a shell 6 or cartridge 7 when delivered thereto by the first carriage 10, 12. The or each further carriage 25, 26 presents the shell 6 or cartridge 7 to an associated articulated assembly which includes an arm 28 which is movable angularly in a vertical plane parallel to the longitudinal axis of the gun barrel and a lever 29, 30 carried pivotally on the arm 27, 28 and movable in a plane perpendicular thereto. The or each arm 27, 28 is provided with means for gripping the shell 6 or cartridge 7 which is/are then led, by the articulated assembly, into line with the breech of the gun, the shell 6 or cartridge 7 being then introduced into the chamber of the gun by a rammer. Stops are provided for the articulated assembly so that for any elevated position of the gun the shell 6 or cartridge 7 is always brought into line with the axis of the chamber of the gun. The carriages are driven by electric motors and the articulated assembly by jacks 33, 34 and motors 35. The levers 29, 30 are pivoted about the trunnion axis of the gun.
