Description

The invention relates to handgun short-barreled weapons specifically - to revolvers with a disk drum (called by the authors "flat revolvers"), mainly police and civilian species.

The vast majority of revolvers are equipped with classic drums, the axis of rotation and chambers of which are parallel to the axis of the barrel [1, 2].

With all the advantages of revolvers, this arrangement leads to the fact that the drum protruding on the sides of the frame of the revolver makes it difficult to carry and remove such weapons. In addition, the classical revolver is characterized by a prolonged reloading, due to the need for the alternate installation of cartridges in the chambers. The solution to the problem of the duration of recharging using various charging accelerators [3] cannot be considered cardinal.

Previously, the authors developed and patented revolvers with disk drums, which can be considered as the result of “selection” of revolvers and pistols with a combination of the advantages of both and which laid the foundation for a subclass of “flat revolvers” (according to the terminology of the authors) [RU 2214576, F41C 1 / 00, 25/10, 2003. Bull. No. 29; RU 2293275, F41C 1/00, 25/10, 2007. Bull. No. 4; Pavlov C.H., Semenov A.G. Revolver and gun. An attempt at "selection" // Kalashnikov. - 2007, No. 6. - S. 64-68].

In them, the disk drums have a horizontal transverse axis of rotation located below the axis of the barrel channel, and the chambers are located on the periphery of the drum tangentially to a circle centered on its axis.

During the development, the scheme of the Noel revolver type capsule weapon of 1850 was taken as the basis, which, due to the location of the axis of rotation on the extension of the horizontal axis of the barrel bore, had overestimated height dimensions approximately by the radius of the disk vertically oriented drum and irrational shape (layout) from the point view of storage, wearing and quick retrieval / retraction; in addition, it did not provide for an operative change of the drum by analogy with removable modern weapon stores [A. Zhuk. Weapon. Revolvers, pistols, rifles, submachine guns, machine guns. - M .: Military Publishing House, 1992 .-- 735 p.: Ill. - S. 16, Fig. 10, scheme 8; Pavlov C.H., Semenov A.G. Revolver and gun. An attempt at "selection" // Kalashnikov. - 2007, No. 6. - S. 65].

Nevertheless, the design of the disk drum aroused interest in the radial arrangement of the chambers (star-shaped). Being used at the time as a means of reducing the turning point of the recoil force on the drum, such a layout made the authors think, but from a different angle - of a fundamentally new layout of the weapon as a whole and from the standpoint of finding ways to increase the power of the shot while maintaining the dimensions of the weapon and without increasing the power of ammunition (see further the technical task and the subject of the claimed invention).

Along with the problem of increasing the compactness of short-barreled hand weapons, the problem of the aforementioned power of the shot continues to take place. One of the ways to increase it is to lengthen the bore. But this conceptually contradicts the very concept of “short-barreled weapons” and is in clear antagonism with the desire for compactness.

Among the expressed new layout solutions for revolvers are options for “selecting” the front of the classic (non-planar) revolver with the rear of the gun. According to the first option, the drum is cylindrical [Revolver Mateba MTR-8 revolver (Italy) // Internet resource: http://world.guns.ru/handguns/double-acton-revolvers/it/mateba-mtr--e.html ], according to the second - two-row conveyor type (which means it is closer to “flat”) [Revolver N.I. Kononova // RU 2253819, F41C 3/16, 2005. Bull. No. 16].

However, in the first case, the payment for reducing the dimensions of the weapon in height was its hypertrophied length with a minimum barrel length, and in the second case the same, but at least using the space freed up from below to realize the "flatness" of the weapon and increasing the ammunition load.

In the same series is more interesting, from the position of the claimed invention, revolver O.B. Shatilov with a cylindrical drum, but with the most extended back, with the location of the pistol grip (the cavity of which is very saturated with the components of the revolver) directly under the drum, with almost a substantial overlap, again within the grip cavity, due to which everything was possible in the same dimensions still win a little in barrel length [RU 2285884, F41C 3/10, F41A 9/61, 2006. Bull. No. 29].

In parallel, again from the point of view of the claimed invention, the main inventive idea is of interest for a long time known (from the idea of the German colonel Hans Schede) and continuing to develop weapons systems with a curved ("curved", curved) barrel: the so-called "weapon for firing from cover "On the" dead zones "[From the trench, from around the corner, from the tank: the crooked-barrel weapon is returning / Sergey Monetchikov // Weapon, 2007, No. 10 // Internet resource: http://otvaga2004.ru/armiya- i-vpk / armiya-i-vpk-concept / iz-okopa-iz-zaugla-iz-tanka / (Release date: 11/20/2014)].

They solved a completely different problem - changing the direction of the trajectory of the bullet by an angle of up to 90 °. At the same time, designers and inventors do not care about high compactness, because the safety requirements of the shooter make, on the contrary, increase the longitudinal dimension of the weapon. Structurally, it looks like this: within a weapon’s hull (bed), the barrel is traditionally straightforward and horizontal (including this section being the barrel of a straight-armed weapon), and then the second one, its front section or the “curvature” barrel nozzle, is curved, with a downward orientation (see A.I. Sudayev's submachine gun - PPS on the first ill. of the indicated information source), or sideways.

Here, it’s not difficult to figure out how long the barrel is being extended, and the overall dimensions of the weapon are also increasing.

It should be noted that in Germany (from the second half of 1943), the USA (also during the Second World War), and the USSR (1946-1947), work was carried out that included theoretical and computational studies of “curvilinear” internal and external ballistics in application to the "crooked" trunks and barrel nozzles [Permyakov I.A. Weapons firing from around the corner // Military History Journal // Internet resource: site of the Scientific Electronic Library http: www.elibrary.ru ; Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. F. 81. Op. 175258cc. D. 31; The American Rifleman, July 1946, p. fifteen].

In particular, the American “bullet warper” differs from the German curved barrel in that the inner side of the curved part of the barrel is cut off and, accordingly, the barrel channel is open from the side of a smaller radius of curvature.

The authors did not find a revolver type in the variety of curved guns, and from the short-barreled one it is possible to note a couple of exotic pneumatic samples, not even in a serious segment of match pistols, where the barrel length in given weapon dimensions is increased due to the bending of the barrel in a spiral [Match gun Feinwerkbau with a barrel wrapped around the tank // Internet resource: http://vk.com/wall-37771327_7512 (Posting date: 08/03/2015); Internet resource: www.muzzle.de/muzzle_FWB2_sauschwaenzle01.tif // http://guns.allzip.org/topic/24/1080158.html/Alex485 (Post date: 06/19/2013)].

By the way, in the first of them, attention should be paid to the ergonomics of the handle with the geometry of the rear outline and two hand stops - the front lower and rear upper (which we will return to when describing the claimed device).

In conclusion of the analytical review of analogues, it seems appropriate to refer to the specific design of the Swedish pistol (patented in 1900 by Count Gustav Hamilton) with a straight barrel, but with the shutter rolling backwards and downwards in an arc into the handle, that is, using centripetal force to increase the shutter friction in guides [Beetle AB Revolvers and pistols. - M.: Military Publishing House "Lokid", 1992. - 431 p., Ill. - S. 266, p. 57; S. 396, fig. 57, scheme 1; Non-standard samples of short-barreled weapons // Internet resource: http://popgun.ru/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=35207 (Posting date: 05/20/2006)].

The gun had a 6-charge detachable box magazine, inserted into the hole in front of the trigger guard. Of interest from the standpoint of the claimed invention is the trajectory of the shutter using the cavity of the handle and the corresponding configuration of the rear of the weapon.

Closest to the claimed invention according to the purpose and combination of design features (prototype) is a disk revolver ("Handgun revolver type"), comprising a housing with a flat hollow handle, formed by its connected left and right parts, and a barrel, a disk drum installed in it with a horizontal transverse axis of rotation, located below the axis of the bore, with several through cameras spaced apart from each other with the same angular pitch with the possibility of manual equipment ammunition and manual extraction of spent cartridges, locking device, mechanisms for turning and fixing the drum in combat positions, alignment of any of the chambers with the pool entrance of the barrel channel and the micro-gap between the cylindrical surface of the drum and the surface of the hemp of the barrel, a device for firing a shot, a trigger element as part of the drum rotation mechanism and devices for firing a shot, a reloading device and a safety device, with a location of a part of the mentioned components of the revolver in the handle cavity [R U 2214576, F41C 1/00, 25/10, 2003. Bull. No. 29].

In it, the barrel along its entire length (from the muzzle to the hemp) is made rectilinear in all longitudinal planes and is close, with a micro-gap over the entire surface of the hemp, to the cylindrical surface (forming) of the drum. In this case, the chambers in the disk drum are located on the periphery of the drum tangentially to a circle centered on its axis. The axis of rotation of the drum is removed down from the line along the axis of the bore of the barrel by an amount less than the radius of the drum (specifically, the minimum distance from the axis of each chamber to the axis of rotation of the drum). In this case, the drum is located partially (lower segment) in the upper part of the cavity of the handle.

At the end of the disk drum there are foresaws (pins) in an amount equal to the number of chambers, with equal angular increments one at a time opposite the chamber, with the possibility of indirect interaction with them of the trigger element and simultaneous platoon and subsequent descent of the adjacent pin of the mainspring. The trigger element is made in the form of a piece, figuratively cut out of strip material, the front end of which is designed as a trigger, and the middle and rear parts of it carry mounted pushers with a down-back orientation to form a parallel circuit for the action of each of the pushers on the current end pin (pin ) drum and trigger associated with the mainspring. That is, the trigger element is endowed with the functions of turning the drum and cocking the trigger directly, and is mounted in longitudinal guides in a plane parallel to the plane of the axis of the barrel channel, with the possibility of reciprocating movement due to the impact on the trigger by the user's hand and counteracting the war spring being deformed. The composition of the firing device and the safety device includes a coil-type coil spring fixed to the side wall of the left side of the body, with the function of shock interaction, after cocking and lowering, with the rear end of the spring-loaded striker with a prick, with the possibility of reciprocating shock movement of the latter. According to the basic version presented in the drawings, the disk drum is made with five chambers for a pistol cartridge of 9 mm caliber (9 mm PM). Each cartridge is fixed in the chamber by an individual ring spring integrated into the chamber groove. The disk drum is made, as an option, with segmented sections of metal above each chamber (to facilitate). The drum can be mounted on an axis in the cartridge, with the possibility of extension / insertion of the cartridge from the bottom of the handle, with latches like a pistol box magazine. In the lower front of the handle there is a single-function lower wrist stop of the “spur” type, and in the upper rear of the body there is also a single-function upper wrist stop.

However, with all its advantages, such a weapon still has insufficiently high combat characteristics, primarily in terms of the power of the shot (the initial velocity of the bullet) while maintaining the dimensions of the weapon and the power of the cartridge. For with a straight barrel (along its entire length) and a classic layout with the location of the drum both cylindrical and disk with "peripheral" cameras, immediately behind it, the length of the barrel is less than half the length of the weapon. Removing the axes of the chambers from the axis of rotation of the drum causes significant “tipping” moments of recoil forces on the drum and, accordingly, the device for fixing it, in the production of shots. The position of the center of gravity of the revolver with a significant up-and-down movement from the hand covered by the hand, the arrow of the handle in combination with an uncompensated fully recoil back determines some unbalance of the weapon, which does not affect the accuracy of hits when shooting. In addition, the design does not sufficiently implement the principle of two- or multifunctionality of the component parts (components, parts) of a weapon.

The task to which the claimed invention is directed is to increase the combat (tactical, technical, operational) characteristics of the weapon, specifically, to increase the power of the shot (the initial velocity of the bullet), due to:

- an increase of about 1.5 (one and a half) times, in comparison with the prototype, the length of the barrel bore while maintaining the dimensions (compactness) of the weapon and the power of the cartridge;

- elimination (reduction to zero) of the “tipping” moment of recoil force relative to the axis of rotation of the drum;

- reducing the magnitude of the recoil by “turning” the recoil force of the sleeve downward towards the handle gripped by the user's hand and creating an additional compensating force directed upward;

- displacement of the center of gravity of the weapon to the middle of the handle;

- a more complete implementation of the principle of bifunctionality of component parts (parts, components) of a weapon, specifically - providing additional functionality with both wrist rests.

It seems appropriate to expand the variety of models of revolvers.

The solution of the complex task is achieved by the fact that in the curved-shaft disk revolver containing a body with a flat hollow handle formed by its connected left and right parts, a barrel and a disk drum with a horizontal transverse axis of rotation located below the axis of the barrel channel are installed, with several spaced apart friend with the same angular step through cameras with the possibility of manual equipment with cartridges and manual extraction of spent cartridges, locking device, rotation and fixing mechanisms the drum in combat positions with the alignment of any of the chambers to the bullet inlet of the barrel channel and the micro-clearance between the cylindrical surface of the drum and the surface of the hemp of the barrel, a device for firing a shot, a trigger element in the rotation mechanism of the drum and a device for firing a shot, a reloading device, and a safety device, with the location of the part the aforementioned components of the revolver in the cavity of the handle, the barrel is made curved in the longitudinal vertical plane, and with a straight front asthkom from the muzzle, oriented horizontally and radially curved back to the pool entrance, oriented back and down and entering the handle cavity, the chambers in the disk drum are located radially, the axis of rotation of the drum is located at a distance greater than the radius of the drum from the line along the axis the front rectilinear section of the barrel and at a distance of the radius of the drum from the hemp of the barrel in a straight line along the axis of the pool entrance of its channel, while the drum is located completely in the lower part of the handle cavity .

The solution of this problem is also achieved due to additional structural features (with the above main set of features):

- the trigger element can be made in the form of a piece shaped from a strip of material, the front end of which is designed as a trigger, and the rear end is bent down and back (in geometric rather than technological sense) with the formation of a pressure end with the function of rotating the drum, and installed in the longitudinal guides of the body in a plane parallel to the plane of the axis of the barrel channel, with the possibility of reciprocating motion due to the impact on the trigger with the user's finger and counteracting def formed by the mainspring (this allows you to rationalize the design of both the drum rotation mechanism and the firing device, of which the trigger element is part, by replacing the four-piece assembly with one stamped part and giving the chain link pins mentioned below an additional transfer link function from the trigger element to combat spring);

- on the end of the disk drum can be provided tsavka (pins), for example screws screwed on a cylindrical head, with equal angular increments one at a time between the chambers, with the possibility of interaction with them the pressure end of the rear end of the trigger element and simultaneous platoon and subsequent descent of the adjacent tsevok (pin ) the mainspring (this sign “works”, like the previous one, especially both in combination to achieve the above reinforced positive technical result);

- the composition of the firing device and the safety device may include a mainspring fixed to the rear wall of the handle with its middle part, made in the form of a hardened steel strip, curved and cut to half in width at two ends - the upper one with the return trigger function and the lower one with the function of shock interaction, after a platoon and a descent, with a free end of a striker plate with a stripper integrated in the drum axis, fixed in its middle part and free one integrated into the through hole in the axis of the drum coaxially with the pool entrance of the barrel channel and, accordingly, the axis of the chamber in its combat position, with the possibility of movement with impact by a prick on the igniter capsule of the cartridge case in the chamber (this combination of a fairly large number of additional interrelated features is the result partial author’s optimization of the main mechanism of the revolver - the design of the device for firing a shot, while relatively simple, reliable, compact spine and economic feasibility);

- in the disk drum, an annular groove may be provided, coaxial to its axis, into which a spring ring made of round spring steel is integrated, with the function of a common latch of cartridge cases in the drum chambers outside the revolver and partial extension of the cartridge into the barrel bore in the revolver, while in the drum it is provided as at least one oblique groove for extracting the spring ring by means of a ramrod or other improvised tool, and the section of the spring ring does not coincide with the groove of its extraction (in comparison with individual latches in the protot ne is considerably simplifies the construction of the apparatus fixation sleeves cartridges in the gap chambers, increases the efficiency of the drum gear, extraction cartridges and spent cartridges);

- a disk drum can be made with five chambers for a pistol cartridge of 9 mm caliber (this, according to the authors, based on experience in the design and use of weapons, is optimal for both military and civil and police weapons, especially in Russia);

- a disk drum can be made with a number of chambers from five to eight, inclusive, for a pistol cartridge with a caliber of less than 9 mm (this expands the range of technical offer within the framework of the general claimed weapon concept, taking into account the specific conditions of use in various sectors of the "market" and the preferences of users, export conditions; a five-shot caliber up to 9 mm outperforms a five-shot 9 mm caliber with greater compactness, which is especially important for hidden carrying and in "ladies'" weapons);

- the disk drum can be made with peripheral samples between the chambers that are part of the reloading device, with the possibility of its mounting / dismounting on the axis of rotation using the user's fingers (the advantage of this option naturally follows from the very formulation of this set of features: ease of mounting / dismounting of the drum and greater gains in overall dimensions);

- in the revolver, a spring-loaded valve of the handle cavity with the function of one of its cheeks can be provided, blocking in the closed fixed state at least the drum completely and installed in the longitudinal guides of the case (this is not typical for pistols and especially for revolvers, but very convenient and understandable to the "inexperienced contingent" such as female users of self-defense weapons with traumatic or gas cartridges, the design solution provides a number of such additional advantages as reliability, annost and spent drum speed changes);

- with the previous set of features, a lower “carpal” type palm rest may be provided in the lower front of the handle, while a return spring and a bolt lock are integrated at least partially into its cavity (this extends the possibilities of the carpal rest common in pistols, which determines additional compactness of the weapon in comparison with the single-functional “spur”);

- in the upper rear part of the body, an upper carpal stop can be provided with an additional function of the developed connection of the left and right parts of the body and the possible placement of the rear sight when there is an aiming front sight at the muzzle end (this gives an additional positive effect similar to that indicated in the previous paragraph);

- the barrel and the axis of the drum can be fixed on the right side of the body, and the trigger element, the mainspring and a spring-loaded valve with its lock - on the left, towards the muzzle, part of the body of the body of the body (this is more rational from layout considerations, assembly technology and possible disassembly / assembly, reloading and ergonomics).

Among the known devices and methods, no such combination of essential features would coincide with the declared one. At the same time, it is due to the latter that a new technical result is achieved in accordance with the task.

A curved-shaped disk revolver (an example of a five-shot 9 mm revolver) contains a housing 1 (detachable or, as another possible option, one-piece parts - left 1l and right 1p) with a flat hollow handle 2 (see Fig. 2-4, 18-21) . In the housing 1, a barrel 3, a disk drum 4 with a radius R of a cylindrical surface (i.e., the distance from the axis of rotation of the drum 4 to its generatrix), a locking device, rotation and fixing mechanisms of the drum 4 and a device for firing a shot are installed (listed without indicating positions - see hereinafter) with the trigger element 5 in their composition, a reloading device and a safety device (see further in the text).

The disk drum 4 has a horizontal transverse axis of rotation 6 located below the axis 7 of the channel 8 of the barrel 3 at its slice 9. The drum 4 is made with several through cameras 10 spaced apart from each other with the same angular pitch α, with the possibility of manually equipping them with cartridges and manual extraction (forced removal) of spent cartridges (the cartridge itself and its location in the chamber 10 are shown by a dotted line in the lower part of Fig. 1) through their outer holes. In combat positions, any of the chambers (axis 11) is aligned with the pool entrance 12 of the channel 8 of the barrel 3 and the micro-gap 13 (fractions of a millimeter) between the cylindrical surface (forming) of the drum 4 and the surface (usually all or most of it) of the hemp 14 of the barrel 3 (see Fig. 1, 5).

Microgap 13 is part of the locking device.

The handle 2 is for the most part formed by the left part 1l of the housing 1. In its cavity (assembled with the connection of the body parts 1l and 1p) there is a part of the components of the revolver (see Fig. 2, details hereinafter).

The barrel 3 is made curved (as a whole) in a longitudinal vertical plane, and with a straight front section L ₁ (with axis 7) from the muzzle section 9 oriented horizontally and curved along the radius r (along the center line in rotation with axis 7) L ₂ to the pool entrance 12 of the channel 8 of the barrel 3, oriented downward and entering the handle 2 to the cylindrical surface of the drum 4 (with the formation of the aforementioned micro-gap 13). The length L _{2 of the} curved section of the barrel 3 is measured (see Figs. 1, 5) along the external radius of the channel, since under the conditions of the centrifugal effect when the bullet moves along it, this guide is mainly this, the outer side is a “trench”, in connection with which the first The German developments of the “curvatures” were structurally not tubular, but in the form of a gutter. A barrel with a square cross-section and a round threaded channel 8 is proposed here.

The chambers 10 in the drum 4 are arranged radially (in other words, star-shaped).

The drum 4 itself is located completely in the lower part of the cavity of the handle 2. The axis 6 of rotation of the drum 4 is located at a distance H greater than the radius R of the drum 4 from the line along the axis 7 of the front straight portion L _{1 of the} barrel 3 (H> R) and at a distance of radius R the drum 4 from the hemp 14 of the barrel 3 in a straight line in the continuation of the axis of the pool entrance 12 of its channel 8.

A further description of the device applies only to private (additional) design features.

In the above example, the curvature of the barrel is r≈2⋅R = 69 mm.

The trigger element 5 is made in the form of a figuredly cut out of a strip material parts (see. Fig. 1, 7). Its front end is designed as a trigger 15, and the rear end is bent down and back with an oblique cut at an angle β, and its edge with the formation of the pressure end 16 with the function of rotation of the drum 4. Element 5 is installed in the longitudinal guides 17, 18 provided in the housing 1, preferably in its left part 1l, in a plane parallel to the plane of the axis of the channel 8 of the barrel 3, with the possibility of reciprocating movement (in Fig. 1 - left-right) due to the impact on the trigger 15 with a user's finger and counteraction deformable at the same time the war spring 19 (for more details - hereinafter).

At the end of the drum 4, there are provided yokes (pins) 20, for example, screws screwed on a cylindrical head (this was done in the example), with an equal angular pitch α one by one between the chambers 10, with the possibility of interacting with the pressure end 16 in the forward stroke of element 5 and simultaneously the platoon and the subsequent descent of the adjacent forearm (adjacent pin) 20 of the mainspring 19, as well as with the possibility of interaction with the oblique (at an angle β) slice on element 5 on the return stroke of the latter.

The combat spring 19 is included in at least two devices at the same time - firing and safety. Accordingly, it should be dual-functional. But in the inventive device, moreover, it is three-functional, which will be explained later in the description of the operation of the device. The name “combat”, which becomes narrower under the conditions of three-functionality, is given by its main function - shock. The spring 19 is fixed on the rear wall of the handle 2 with its middle part (see Fig. 1, 4) and is made (see Fig. 1, 8-10) in the form of a hardened steel strip, curved (not in the technological, but in the geometric sense) and cut off in width to half at two ends - the upper 21 with the return function of the trigger element 5 and the lower 22 with the main function of the shock interaction (with limited free movement in the "spring" groove provided in axis 6) with the stroke, after cocking and lowering, with free, normally pressed end of the leaf return spring 23 striker 24, s reinforced (connection 25) in its middle part and freely integrated into the through hole 26 in axis 6 of drum 4 coaxially with the pool entrance of channel 8 of barrel 3 and, accordingly, axis 11 of chamber 10 in its combat position, with the possibility of movement (in a plane along an arc) close to reciprocating, with impact by a prick (nose) 27 striker 24 on the igniter capsule of the cartridge case (not shown) in the chamber 10 (see Fig. 1, 12, 13). Note that the firing pin 24 and the piercer 27, made in the prototype as two different parts, in this example are structurally combined into one part (see Fig. 12, 13). Moreover, the spring 23 is at least bi-functional, which allows us to consider such a design as an “elastic striker with a prick”. The presence of slices at the ends 21 and 22 of the spring (see Fig. 8-10) 19 is explained by layout considerations - for these elements to "bypass" adjacent parts "from the flanks" along the width of the revolver (see Fig. 1, 2).

как и два или более таких пазов, разнесенных по окружности (как в данном примере, где их два) для извлечения пружинного кольца 29 посредством шомпола или иного подручного инструмента типа прутка (не показаны). При этом кольцо 29 следует устанавливать в паз (канавку) 28 так, чтобы разрез кольца 29 не совпал с пазом 28 его извлечения (см. фиг. 14).In the drum 4, an annular groove (groove) 28 is provided, coaxial to its axis 6, into which a spring ring 29 is made of round spring steel (see Fig. 1, 14-17), with the possibility of deformation when it is exerted by force, with a common locking function cartridge cases in the chambers 10 of the drum 4 outside the revolver and partial extension of the cartridge into the channel 8 of the barrel 3 in the revolver, while in the drum 4 there is an oblique groove 30,

as well as two or more of such grooves spaced around the circumference (as in this example, where there are two of them) for removing the spring ring 29 by means of a ramrod or other improvised tool such as a rod (not shown). In this case, the ring 29 should be installed in the groove (groove) 28 so that the incision of the ring 29 does not coincide with the groove 28 of its extraction (see Fig. 14).

The drum 4 is made with five chambers 10 for a pistol cartridge with a caliber of 9 mm, mainly 9 mm PM (see. Fig. 1, 2, 14-16). Moreover, its diameter can be maintained within R≈35 mm.

In alternative embodiments, drum 4 can be made with a number of chambers 10 from five to eight, inclusive, for a pistol cartridge with a caliber of less than 9 mm, mainly from the serial (for domestic sales - Russian, in export products - corresponding to the country of export).

The drum 4 is made with peripheral samples 31 included in the reloading device between the chambers 10 (see Fig. 1, 14, 16), with the possibility of mounting / dismounting the drum 4 on the axis of rotation 6 by means of the fingers of the user's hand. In the embodiment with a spring-loaded lock 32 of the angular position of the drum 4 (it is attached, similarly to the mainspring 19, to the rear wall of the handle 2, but below it, and is shown by the dotted line in Fig. 1), the rear edges along the working stroke of the drum 4, forming a cylindrical surface on borders with samples 31, - carry the function of the counterparts of the spring retainer 32, with the possibility of "soft" dynamic interaction - "in terms of wool".

A spring-loaded (spring 33 with a lock - position is not indicated) bolt 34 of the cavity of the handle 2 with the function of one of its cheeks (therefore, a double name - “cheek-bolt” or “bolt-cheek”) is provided (see Fig. 1, 18) , overlapping in the closed fixed state, at least the drum 4 is completely and installed in the housing 1, preferably in its left part 1l, in the longitudinal guides 35, 36. The valve 33 completes the isolation (left) of the cavity of the handle 2 from the external environment.

In the lower front of the handle 2 there is a lower “spur” wrist stop 37, and a return spring 33 with said gate valve 34 is integrated into the cavity of the wrist stop 37, at least partially, as shown in FIG. fourteen.

In the upper rear part of the housing 1, an upper carpal support 38 is provided with an additional function of the developed detachable connection of the body parts 1l and 1p and the possible placement of the rear sight 39 in the presence of an aim sight 40 at the muzzle end 9 of the barrel 3 (see Fig. 1).

The barrel 3 and the axis 6 of the drum 4 are fixed on the right side 1p of the housing 1 (see Fig. 2, 19, 20), and the trigger element 5, the mainspring 19 and the spring-loaded (spring 33) gate valve 34 with its lock (s) are on left, in the direction of the muzzle 9, part 1 l of the housing 1 (see Fig. 1).

The fundamental possibility of the practical implementation of the main constructive feature in the claimed combination of features, namely, the curvature of the barrel 3, is confirmed by the well-known theoretical calculations mentioned in the overview part of the "curved" internal ballistics (Germany, USA, USSR) in the appendix to the "curved" trunks and on-barrel nozzles, as well as rich international experience of “shooting from behind the shelter”.

The described example of a specific embodiment does not exclude other possible variants of the device within the scope of the claimed combination of essential structural features (see the claims).

In particular, using electric ignition, in which the device will be greatly simplified.

It is possible to introduce a flag, button or other “special” (that is, in addition to the taut self-resetting characteristic of revolvers as a safety device) fuse (not shown).

The 5-shot revolver shown as an example has a design dimension (length × height × thickness) of 163 × 130 × 21 mm with a Makarov pistol of 157 × 125 × 23 (28 with a fuse) and a 6-charge Reck Mod. 60 160 × 105 × 32. Moreover, the length of the barrel of the claimed design is almost 3 times the length of the barrel of the specified revolver - respectively 146 (96 mm curve + 50 mm straight sections) and 45 mm with almost the same length of the weapon.

The inventive device works (use a revolver) as follows.

The drum is equipped with cartridges separately from the revolver, either by the user independently or in a specialized organization (at the weapon manufacturing plant or in the weapons workshop). The process can be partially or fully automated. It is possible to exchange "empty" drums 4 for equipped ones. That is, a certain analogy with various cartridges, which have become widespread in modern organizational (for example, printers) and other equipment.

When the equipment is successively inserted into each chamber 10, the cartridge case is inserted forward through the hole (inlet) of the cartridge and the cartridge is pressed with the thumb on the bullet head until the click of the reversibly deformed spring ring 29 is clicked.

Take a revolver in the hand (right, left-handed - in the left), first turn on (with the same or the other hand) a flag or other “specialized” fuse, provided that on the left side 1l and the position is off, with a free “other” hand, open (shift along directing 35, 36) the valve 34, after removing it from the latch (in the cavity of the "spurs" 37). Released spring 33 released by the retainer serves to assist in the opening of the valve 34. With the full opening of the latter, the valve 34 stops at the stop or can be completely separated from the revolver. The user’s gaze, as well as any inquisitive bystander, opens up an unprecedented and unforgettable picture: the contents of the cavity of the handle 2, including the seat for the drum 4 - axis 6.

Along the way, checking (if time permits) the state of the internal components of the weapon and, if necessary, carrying out operational routine maintenance (cleaning, lubrication), take the drum 4 equipped with cartridges, which are freed from the gate valve 34 by the fingers that are released apart from the gate valve 34, by its peripheral recesses 31 and calmly, intently insert, in any angular position, but mainly in combat (with the coincidence of the axis 11 of the closest chamber 10 with the axis of the pool entrance 12 and the focus previously left in contact with the chamfer of the drum 4 or retracted the spring of the latch 32, if present, into the "back", that is, the left-top in Fig. 1, the edge of the drum 4 at the sample 31) until the drum is automatically (clicked) locked. The return spring 23 of the striker can act as a latch (in this case it is no longer two-but three-functional). In principle, an axial lock may not be present at all. Then, with the same hand or changing hands, close the valve 34 to compress the return spring 33 and click the latch of the valve 34 in the closed position.

For firing a shot (with self-cocking), taking a revolver in the right (left-handed - left) hand by the handle 2 and preparing to fire according to the Rules for using weapons in a specific situation, take aim (for example, combining the front sight 40 with the rear sight slot 39), press with the index finger trigger 15 (continuing to sink it until the actual shot is fired).

In this case, the full cycle of the mechanism of rotation of the drum and the device for producing a shot occurs:

- the trigger element 5 moves progressively along the longitudinal guides 17, 18 (in Fig. 1 - to the left);

- the push end face 16 of its rear end by force acting on the forearm 20 (the moment of force relative to the axis 6 of the drum 4) rotates the drum 4 (in Fig. 1 - counterclockwise);

- at the same time, the latch 32, if any, is automatically disabled, with the release of the fixing drum 4 of the end of the spring 32 from the sample 31;

- soon, choosing a gap to the upper end 21 of the spring 19, the element 5 begins to deform it with the same end face 16, preparing to automatically return the element 5 to its original state when the finger is further removed from the trigger 15;

- when the drum 4 is rotated within the angle α, the pushed foregrip 20 takes the place no further than the neighboring, “in front of the runaway” foregrip 20 and to the stump 14 of the barrel 3, the “running” cam 10 with the cartridge comes to the fighting position;

- fixing the drum 4 in the achieved combat angular position (with a permissible small angular deviation in both directions (“positional play”) is provided automatically or by a spring “step” lock 32 (the spring lock 32, if present, re-enters the locking stop with the corresponding edge drum at the edge of the sample 31), or the nose of a cartridge bullet, spring "pecking" at the pool entrance 12;

- the “running away” foregrip 20, with the overlap of time, also “did not lose time in vain”, performing its additional function — it squeezed and continues to compress the lower, “war” end 22 of the war spring 19 (backward in Fig. 1) and thereby preparing the most impending breakdown of the deformed end 22 from the foregrip 20 (but you can say the opposite: the foregrip 20 from the end 22);

- due to the synchronization and verified kinematics of the involved links, when the camora reaches its 10 fighting position, the spring end 22 breaks off “its” forearm 20 and vigorously hits the cantilever end of the return spring 23, entraining the firing pin 24 with a prick (nose of the firing pin) 27 (for due to its connection 25 with the spring 23) through the hole 26 in the axis 6 of the drum 4 in the direction of the bottom of the cartridge case in the chamber 10;

- having jumped out with a pruner (nose) 27 from the hole 26, the pruner 27, in full accordance with its name, pricks the cartridge igniter, initiating a shot;

- almost simultaneously, a mechanical blow with a pruner (nose) (see Fig. 12) on the sleeve causes, in the case of limited fixing properties of the spring ring 29, the cartridge displaces along the chamber 10 with the exit to the outside and the inevitable emphasis with the sleeve cut into the stump and the bullet entering the bullet entrance 12 channels 8 of barrel 3, thereby ensuring that powder gases are locked from an intensive breakthrough into the micro-gap 13 (therefore, the latter in the “company” with all the details involved in this action should also be referred to the previously mentioned locking device);

- powder gases under pressure vigorously throw the spent sleeve back with overcoming its inertia, with increased friction of its walls against the walls of the chamber (under the conditions of bursting with gases in diameter) and the work of the elastic force of the spring ring 29;

- almost at the same time, under the action of the elastic force of the deformed spring 23, the striker 24 + 27 begins to return to its original state under the conditions of a “leading” return of the end 22 of the mainspring 19 (see Fig. 12);

- the recoil force during the shot is directed along the handle 2 down and back, is perceived by the axis 6 of the drum 4 (and then to the body 1 with the handle 2 and then to the user's hand covering the handle 2) with zero shoulder due to the radial arrangement of the chamber 10, and therefore, the drum 4 does not experience a “tipping” moment (along the way this eliminates the fundamental possibility of the drum falling off the clamps and increases the power of the shot);

- the movement of the bullet on the curved section L _{2 of the} channel 8 of the barrel 3 (see Fig. 1, 4-6, 19, 20) generates a variable in magnitude and direction centrifugal force directed up and down;

- centrifugal force partially compensates for the previously mentioned “direct” recoil force: the total recoil force vector becomes small and directed mainly backward (as with the vast majority of weapons), but in the conditions of the center of gravity (center of mass) in the vicinity of the handle 2 does not lead to a noticeable withdrawal of the front section L _{1 of the} barrel 3 from the line of sight;

- in the straight front section of the channel 8 of the barrel 3, the bullet path, of course, is leveled and determines the path behind the muzzle section 9 at the stage of external ballistics;

- with the removal of the load of the finger on the hook 5, the compressed end 21 of the spring 19 returns the trigger element 5 with the hook 15 to its original position along the guides 17, 18;

- the next yoke 20, located on the path of the returning trigger element 5, is pushed back by an oblique cut of the last for the line of the trajectory of the lowest point of the element 5 with the inevitable rotation of the drum 4 backward - clockwise;

- immediately after leaving the lower point of the element 5 to the right of the pushed forearm 20, the end 22 of the spring 19, elastically pressing on the drum 4 (on the wall of the spring slot), gets the opportunity to tighten it again counterclockwise so that the last of the mentioned forearm 20 goes to more a high level and is to the left of the pressure end 16 above the level of its lower point, it can be noted that the spring 19 has one more additional, third function - drum 4 retraction with the withdrawal of the next “working” pin 20 from the “dead” zone for descent vym element 5;

- with a twist of the drum 4, the return to the initial state of the end 22 of the spring 19 is completed, and therefore, the return to the initial state of the spring 23 of the striker 24 restrained by it before;

- this ensures readiness for the subsequent shot in the described order.

In the case of misfire, immediately produce, without any intermediate operations, the next shot. In this case, the use of the same cartridge, of course, is excluded.

When the ammunition is consumed (in the example, five rounds in the drum 4), the weapons are reloaded as follows: open the valve 34 in the manner described above; holding the housing 1 with one hand and grabbing the drum 4 with the fingers of the other hand for the samples 31, with a little effort (to remove from the latch, if one is provided - see the device options mentioned above) remove the drum 4 from axis 6; in the presence of a spare equipped drum, install it in place of the removed (again, as described above); in the absence of a spare equipped drum, equip a spare empty (if available) or (in the absence of the latter); equip the extracted drum, for which first the spent cartridges and / or muzzle cartridges are removed (extracted) from it to release the chamber for a new ammunition, two options for the extraction method are possible:

- with a finger of a hand free from holding the drum 4, each cartridge in the bottom is pushed alternately from the hole in the axis 6, at least until it is “removed” from the locking spring ring 29 and removed by tilting the external opening of the chamber 10 downward using force the severity of the cartridge or with two fingers of the freed hand (this is the main method);

- remove the spring ring 29 from the ramrod or other improvised tool such as a bar through an oblique groove (oblique grooves) 30 (see Figs. 14-17), thereby freeing all the sleeves from being fixed in the chambers 10 by this ring, again using gravity or the cartridges are removed with two fingers, and then the ring 29 is returned with the fingers to the ring groove 28 (this is an additional, backup method).

After that, alternately, with concentrated fingers, insert cartridges into the chambers 10, not forgetting that they should be inserted there with the bottom of the sleeve, and not vice versa (otherwise serious problems are inevitable); curb drum (also known as a magazine) 4 is inserted into the revolver as already described.

Using the invention allows to increase the combat (tactical, technical, operational) characteristics of weapons:

- to ensure the growth of the power of the shot (the initial velocity of the bullet) by increasing about 1.5 (one and a half) times the length of the barrel while maintaining the dimensions (compactness) of the weapon and the power of the cartridge;

- eliminate (reduce to zero) the “overturning” moment of recoil force relative to the axis of rotation of the drum;

- reduce the recoil value by “turning” the recoil force of the sleeve downward towards the handle covered by the user's hand and create an additional compensating force directed up and back - centrifugal force from the curvature of the bullet trajectory at the stage of internal ballistics in the rear section of the barrel;

- shift the center of gravity of the weapon to the middle of the handle;

- to more fully implement the principle of the bifunctionality of the component parts (parts, components) of the weapon, specifically - to provide additional functionality with both wrist rests (a spring and a latch of the cheeks-flaps are built into the lower wrist stop, and an interconnection unit for body parts is organized in the upper wrist stop).

The revolver is recommended for reasonably limited production and use in order to expand the range of hand-held short-barreled firearms.
