Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to travel adjustment assemblies in general and, more particularly, to trigger travel adjustment assemblies.

BACKGROUND

As is known in the art, firearms are available in various configurations such as semiautomatic fire, fully automatic fire, and burst fire. As their name implies, semiautomatic firearms may fire a single round each time the trigger is depressed. Fully automatic firearms may repeatedly fire rounds whenever the trigger is depressed and held in a depressed position. And burst fire firearms may fire a defined quantity of rounds (e.g., three rounds) each time the trigger is depressed.

Regardless of their configuration, firearms typically utilize some form of sear to accomplish the firing of the firearm. Specifically, the sear may be utilized to release the hammer so it may strike the firing pin and fire a round chambered within the firearm, wherein a trigger assembly may be utilized to release the sear and initiate the firing process. One popular type of weapon that utilizes such a sear to accomplish the firing of the firearm is the AR platform firearm (i.e., designed by Eugene Stoner and originally produced by ArmaLite).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

System Overview:

Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown firearm 10. While in this particular example, firearm 10 is shown to be an AR platform firearm, this is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to be a limitation of this disclosure, as other configurations are possible and are considered to be within the scope of this disclosure. Accordingly, other examples of firearm 10 may include but are not limited to other rifle platforms (e.g., the Remington 700 platform), handgun platforms (e.g., the 1911 platform), and various other weapon systems.

Firearm 10 may include trigger 12 configured to effectuate the firing of firearm 10 and the discharging of round 14. Firearm 10 may also include trigger guard 16 configured to shield trigger 12 to e.g., prevent the inadvertent discharging of firearm 10. Trigger guard 16 may be integral to receiver 18 of firearm 10. For example, receiver 18 of firearm 10 may be machined from e.g., an aluminum billet and, therefore, trigger guard 16 may be machined from that same aluminum billet and not removeable from receiver 18 of firearm 10. Alternatively, trigger guard 16 may be a separate item and removeable from receiver 18 of firearm 10, as is standard on milspec (i.e., military specification) AR15s. Referring to FIGS. 2A-2B, there is shown such an example of a “removable” trigger guard (e.g., trigger guard 16), wherein this “removable” trigger guard (e.g., trigger guard 16) may include one or more pins (e.g., pin 20) to allow for the removal of the “removable” trigger guard (e.g., trigger guard 16) from receiver 18 of firearm 10.

Referring also to FIG. 3 and regardless of whether trigger guard 16 is removeable from (or integral to) receiver 18 of firearm 10, firearm 10 may include a rearward-travel stop assembly (e.g., rearward-travel stop assembly 50) configured to control the rearward-travel of trigger 12.

For example, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be configured to limit the rearward-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of firearm 10 to a point after the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) breaks, thus limiting over-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) after the sear releases. As is known in the art, the point at which the trigger “breaks” is the point in the trigger travel at which the firearm discharges by e.g., releasing the hammer. Accordingly and in such a configuration, once the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) breaks and firearm 10 discharges round 14, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may prevent the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) from travelling any further in a rearward direction; thus enhancing the feel of trigger 12 and the overall enjoyment of firearm 10.

Additionally/alternatively, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be configured to limit the rearward-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of firearm 10 to a point before the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) breaks, thus locking the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) forward of the breaking point and rendering the gun inoperable. Accordingly and in such a configuration, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may position (i.e., lock) the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) forward of the breaking point of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12), thus preventing firearm 10 from discharging round 14.

Referring also to FIGS. 4-6, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may include: a trigger guard portion (e.g., trigger guard portion 52) and an adjustable stop assembly (e.g., adjustable stop assembly 54) coupled to the trigger guard portion (e.g., trigger guard portion 52). Adjustable stop assembly 54 may be configured to limit rearward-travel of trigger 12 of firearm 10 by engaging a lower portion of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12). Specifically, by limiting rearward-travel of trigger 12 of firearm 10 by engaging a lower portion of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12), the point of contact between the lower portion of trigger 12 and adjustable stop assembly 54 is in line with the hand of the user and the grip of firearm 10. This configuration is considerably different than a system that limits rearward-travel of trigger 12 and is located within receiver 18 of firearm 10. Such a receiver-based system may limit rearward-travel of trigger 12 at the point of rotation of trigger 12 (either by a mechanical stop assembly or exceeding the maximum swing of the trigger about its pivot point). Either way, such a system may cause a torquing/twisting about the pivot point of trigger 12, which may compromise the accuracy (and/or frustrate the use of firearm 10).

As discussed above, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be an integral rearward-travel stop assembly, wherein rearward-travel stop assembly 50 is physically a portion of receiver 18 and, therefore, is not removable from receiver 18. Accordingly and in such a configuration, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be a portion of firearm 10 as it was produced by its manufacturer. Further and as discussed above, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be a removable rearward-travel stop assembly, wherein rearward-travel stop assembly 50 is detachable from receiver 18 and, therefore, removable.

Accordingly and in such a configuration, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be an aftermarket item that is user-installable onto an existing firearm (e.g., firearm 10).

The adjustable stop assembly (e.g., adjustable stop assembly 54) may include: a displaceable device (e.g., displaceable device 56) configured to be longitudinally displaceable within the adjustable stop assembly (e.g., adjustable stop assembly 54) to adjust the amount of rearward-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of firearm 10. Specifically, displaceable device 56 may be moved toward trigger 12 (in the direction of 58) to allow for less rearward travel of trigger 12 (before contacting displaceable device 56) and/or moved away from trigger 12 (in the direction of 60) to allow for more rearward travel of trigger 12 (before contacting displaceable device 56).

The adjustable stop assembly (e.g., adjustable stop assembly 54) may further include: a locking device (e.g., locking device 62) configured to releasably lock the displaceable device (e.g., displaceable device 56) within the adjustable stop assembly (e.g., adjustable stop assembly 54). As shown in the figures of this disclosure, one implementation of displaceable device 56 may be a portion of a threaded rod that is threaded into adjustable stop assembly 54. And in such a configuration, locking device 62 may be a nut that is threaded around displaceable device 56 and is tightened down onto adjustable stop assembly 54, thus effectively locking displaceable device 56 with respect to adjustable stop assembly 54.

In some implementations of rearward-travel stop assembly 50, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may include a finger rest device (e.g., finger rest device 64), wherein this finger rest device (e.g., finger rest device 64) may be configured to position a finger (e.g., middle finger 66) of a user of fire arm 10. In such a configuration, the positioning of the finger (e.g., middle finger 66) of the user on fire arm 10 further forward with respect to trigger 12 may provide a more stable grip of firearm 10.

In some implementations of rearward-travel stop assembly 50, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may include a finger positioning device (e.g., finger positioning device 68), wherein the finger positioning device (e.g., finger positioning device 68) may be configured to vertically position a finger (e.g., index finger 70) of the user on the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of fire arm 10.

While the above-described implementations of rearward-travel stop assembly 50 is described as possibly including the finger rest device (e.g., finger rest device 64) and/or the finger positioning device (e.g., finger positioning device 68), this is for illustrative purposes only and are not required for implementation of this disclosure. For example, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may include only one (or neither) of finger rest device 64 and/or finger positioning device 68 (as shown in FIG. 7).

Referring also to FIGS. 8-9, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be combined with a forward-travel adjuster assembly (e.g., forward-travel adjuster assembly 72) to form a travel adjustment assembly kit (e.g., travel adjustment assembly kit 74) for firearm 10, wherein the forward-travel adjuster assembly (e.g., forward-travel adjuster assembly 72) may be configured to limit forward-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of firearm 10. Specifically, the forward-travel adjuster assembly (e.g., forward-travel adjuster assembly 72) may be configured to limit the forward-travel of the trigger (e.g., trigger 12) of firearm 10 to a point just before trigger 12 breaks, thus limiting pre-travel of trigger 12. As discussed above, rearward-travel stop assembly 50 may be configured to limit the rearward-travel of trigger 12 of firearm 10 to a point just after trigger 12 breaks, thus limiting over-travel of trigger 12.

Accordingly and through the use of travel adjustment assembly kit 74 (i.e., the combination of rearward-travel stop assembly 50 and forward-travel adjuster assembly 72), the forward-travel of trigger 12 may be limited so that the rest position of trigger 12 is just prior to the breaking point of trigger 12 and the rearward-travel of trigger 12 may be limited so that the actuated position of trigger 12 is just after the breaking point of trigger 12.

The forward-travel adjuster assembly (e.g., forward-travel adjuster assembly 72) may include a displaceable device (e.g., displaceable device 76) configured to be longitudinally displaceable within a receiver (e.g., receiver 18) of firearm 10 to adjust the amount of forward-travel of trigger 12 of firearm 10. The forward-travel adjuster assembly (e.g., forward-travel adjuster assembly 72) may further include a locking device (e.g., locking device 78) configured to releasably lock the displaceable device (e.g., displaceable device 76) within receiver 18 of firearm 10. Specifically and in one implementation, forward-travel adjuster assembly 72 may be configured to replace the grip bolt of an AR platform firearm, wherein locking device 78 of forward-travel adjuster assembly 72 may be configured to affix grip 80 to receiver 18 of firearm 10, wherein displaceable device 76 (which may have an interference fit with respect to locking device 78) may be configured to interact with trigger 12 (and/or a portion of a trigger assembly associated with trigger 12) to e.g., bias trigger 12 rearward toward the breaking point of trigger 12 (thus limiting forward travel of trigger 12).

As discussed previously, in some implementations rearward-travel stop assembly may include a finger positioning device that may be configured to vertically position a finger of the user on the trigger of firearm. Referring also to FIGS. 10 and 11, in a particular implementation, the finger positioning device may include an upwardly convex shape configured to rise to the bottom of the trigger. As shown in the illustrated example embodiment, the upwardly convex shape of the finger positioning device may be configured to vertically position a finger of a user on the trigger of the firearm. Additionally, as shown in the illustrated example embodiment, the finger positioning device may include a groove in the upwardly convex shape permitting travel of the trigger therethrough during actuation of the trigger.
