Abstract
Air rifle comprising a trigger that actuates a firing mechanism that acts on an interconnection piece; that exerts a force on a counter-pawl that releases a spring for driving a piston, in which said firing mechanism is an electronic firing mechanism with an electromechanical actuator and a switch for actuating the electromechanical actuator, the electromechanical actuator being arranged in such a way that it exerts a force on the interconnection piece in a direction substantially parallel to the direction of the barrel of the gun.
Claims20
A spring-loaded rifle having a rifle body, the rifle comprising:
- a trigger;
- an electronic firing mechanism comprising an electromechanical actuator operable by a first switch;
- an interconnection piece having a first part and a second part joined by an articulated joint, the first part fixed to the rifle body;
- a counter-ratchet connected to the second part of the interconnection piece;
- and
- a spring configured to drive a piston, the piston having a spring-loaded configuration held in place by the counter-ratchet;
- the trigger configured to activate the electronic firing mechanism, causing the electronic firing mechanism to act upon the interconnection piece, causing the interconnection piece to exert a force upon the counter-ratchet, which force causes the counter-ratchet to release the piston from the spring-loaded configuration, and
- the electromechanical actuator arranged to exert a force on the interconnection piece in a direction substantially parallel to the direction of the rifle barrel.
