Abstract
A trigger device for activating a firing mechanism, the trigger device comprising a housing, a trigger pivotally mounted on the housing via a trigger pivot pin, a sear arm comprising a first sear surface, a ticker extending generally from the trigger to the sear arm, the ticker pivotable about a ticker pivot pin, the ticker comprising spaced apart flanges, each of which comprises an aperture defining at least a first contact surface, and a captured roller positioned at least partially within the apertures, wherein in a captured position the first sear surface and the first contact surfaces engage the captured roller and in a released position the first contact surfaces disengage from the captured roller to allow the captured roller to move within the aperture.
Claims19
1-21. (canceled)
An adjustment mechanism comprising:
- a feedback member comprising a plurality of spaced-apart projections extending from a surface thereof;
- a wedge screw threadably coupled to a first support, the wedge screw comprising a first end shaped to be received between at least two neighbouring projections;
- and
- a spring in contact with an opposite surface of the feedback member and a second support, the spring configured to be compressed or extended based on a direction of rotation of the wedge screw;
- wherein the feedback member is configured to provide feedback to a user upon rotation of the wedge screw each time the threaded wedge screw is repositioned between at least two neighbouring projections.
The adjustment mechanism of claim 30 wherein rotation of the wedge screw in a direction causes the wedge screw to move in a first direction thereby compressing the spring, and rotation of the wedge screw in an opposite direction causes the wedge screw to move in a second direction thereby expanding the spring.
The adjustment mechanism of claim 31 wherein the first and second directions are opposing vertical directions.
A trigger device for activating a firing mechanism, comprising:
- a trigger pivotally mounted on a housing via a trigger pivot pin;
- an adjustable trigger biasing member configured to bias the trigger in a ready position;
- a sear arm comprising a first sear surface;
- a ticker extending generally from the trigger to the sear arm and rotatable about a ticker pivot pin, the ticker defining a slot configured to receive at least the first sear surface, the slot having a contact surface;
- and
- a captured roller positioned at least partially within the slot, the captured roller configured to selectively engage the first sear surface and the contact surface.
