The present invention relates to the single hand cranked firearms more particularly to single hand cranked firing control system for plurality of AR15 rifles, a conversion kit to convert a plurality of AR 15 rifles to a single hand cranked firing control system.
Conventionally gatling guns have a stationary housing and a rotor assembly journaled within the housing having barrels. These are heavy weight and hand cranked. These guns do not provide a sufficient rate of fire and the firing mechanism is not simple and convenient of these guns.
A number of different types of gatling guns are present in the art. For example, see: U.S. Pat. No. 8,234,978 B1 to Bond et al; U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/907,071 A1 to Burker Jr; U.S. Pat. No. 9,115,954 B1 to Corsi et al; CN Patent Application No. 102607327 A to Chongqing Jainshe Ind Group Co.
Prior art U.S. Pat. No. 8,234,978 B1 discloses a firing device, comprising: a first hollow cylinder; a second hollow cylinder laterally spaced from and extending substantially parallel to the first hollow cylinder, each of the first and second hollow cylinders having a longitudinal axis, an inner surface and an outer surface, and extending longitudinally between a first end and a second end.
Another Prior art U.S. patent application No. 20060207418 A1 discloses a multi-barrel automatic weapon of the Gatling type wherein there is a single firing pin mechanism activated by a cam and a cam follower for sequentially firing all of the ammunition in a plurality of barrels. The barrels and cam being directly driven by a drive shaft connected directly to an electric motor. The electric motor being powered by a small, low voltage, rechargeable battery.
Another Prior art U.S. Pat. No. 9,115,954 B1 discloses double-barreled bullpup pump-action shotgun has a frame with two forward-extending barrels arranged side-by-side, a pair of tube magazines, each positioned beneath a respective barrel, an action attached to the frame and operable to load ammunition from the tube magazines to the barrels, and a trigger assembly attached to the frame, the action being located at least in part behind the trigger assembly, and the trigger assembly including a trigger linkage to connect the trigger assembly to the action and to operate the hammers behind the bolts.
Another Prior art CN Patent Application No. 102607327 A discloses a Gatling weapon firing mechanism, comprising a cartridge receiver and a bolt installed on the cartridge receiver, wherein the bolt comprises a bolt head, a bolt body and a firing pin spring; the firing mechanism further comprises an unlocking bulge and a locking bulge on the bolt head, a cam curve slot mechanism outside the cartridge receiver, a locking block and an unlocking guide in front of the cartridge receiver and the like. The mechanism provided by the invention has a simple and practical structure, effectively avoids the defect of short life of the extrusion firing pins, also avoids the defect of excessively large rotating moment as the firing pin spring stroke is increased and has the advantages of long service life and small moment.
None of the above discussed invention talks about a single hand cranked firing control system. The system that includes at least two AR 15 guns and single hand crank for the firing mechanism. A system that holds AR 15 guns into single device and is fired by the single hand crank handle. A system in which each gun is triggered at a different time.
In the view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of gatling gun now present in the prior art, the present invention provides an improved gatling gun operated by a single hand crank. As such, the general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a single hand cranked firing control system which has all the advantages of the prior art and none of the disadvantages.
An object of the invention is to provide a single hand cranked firing control system for a plurality of AR 15 rifles.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a single hand cranked firing system in which each is triggered at a different time.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a single hand cranked firing system in which a double receiver connector joins the two guns together.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a single hand cranked firing system in which the triggers of the guns are actuated by a trigger bar.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a single hand cranked firing system in which the trigger bar is pushed and pulled by of double lobe cams.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a single hand cranked firing system in which the double lobe cam is rotated by the hand crank.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a single hand cranked firing system in which a gripping means is provided at one end.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter in which there are illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.
The invention will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
In the following detailed description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration specific embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, and it is to be understood that the embodiments may be combined, or that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural, logical and electrical changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, according to
In a particular embodiment of the present invention the single hand cranked firing system adapts two AR-15 and or AR-10 rifles together to create a single hand cranked firing control system. The system includes a T bracket 1 that receives buffer tubes 9 of the guns. The T bracket 1 is connected to an L bracket 6 and linkage rod 4 is connected to the trigger bar 2. The hand crank 5 is connected to the cam axel and operates trigger bar 2 to actuate the triggering mechanism of both the guns. The trigger forks 12 are received in the trigger fork guides 10. The adjustable linkage rod 4 is attached to the trigger fork 12 on one end and the trigger bar 2 on the other end.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, when the hand crank 5 is rotated it rotates the double lobe cam 3, by means of that the trigger bar 2 provides an actuation to the triggers 10 of both the guns. The triggers 10 are operated by trigger fork 12 that is connected by linkage rod 4, when trigger bar 2 is actuated and the double lobe cams 3 push and pull on the trigger bar 2. This push and pull mechanism of double lobe cams 3 provides a slight time difference for the triggering operation of both the guns. The buffer tubes could be mounted on the at 45-degree angle on the T bracket 1, according to the need of the user.
It is to be understood that the above description is intended to be illustrative, and not restrictive. For example, the above-discussed embodiments may be used in combination with each other. Many other embodiments will be apparent to those of skill in the art upon reviewing the above description.
