    摘要: A traverse stop clamp is provided for restricting sweep of a machine gun mounted on a tripod. The stop clamp is installable on a traverse bar connecting to rear legs of the tripod, the traverse bar having an inverse U-shape cross-section that form edges at ends of the U-shape. The stop clamp includes an open ring member, a shift member, a handle, a spring pin and a locking nut. The open ring member has a C-shaped ring with an interrupted circumferential outer periphery and an inner periphery with channels for receiving the edges of the traverse bar. The outer periphery has first and second ring ends separated by an adjustable gap. The open ring member further includes first and second tabs disposed to extend radially outward from the first and second ends. These first and second tabs respectively have first and second through-holes. The shift member has a tang and a shaft at respectively first and second shifter ends. The receiver has a third through-hole, and the shaft has a threaded terminus. The tang and shaft pass respectively through the first and second through-holes. The handle has a lever and a clevis head with coaxial fourth through-holes. The head has a cam separating a lock clevis face and a release clevis face. The lock clevis face engages the tang in response to the lever being adjacent the outer periphery. The release clevis face engages the tang in response to pulling the lever away from the outer periphery. The handle pivots at the fourth-through-holes to widen the gap between the tabs. The spring pin passes through the fourth and third through-holes to connect the tang and the clevis head pivotably together. The threaded lock nut attaches to the threaded terminus to engage the second tab.

    摘要: A tripod is provided for mounting a machine gun between a front pintle and a traverse-and-elevation (T&E) device, being mechanically alterable between stowage and deployment configurations by means of a curved traverse bar. The tripod includes a head member for receiving the front pintle, a fore leg, first and second rear legs, and the traverse bar. The fore leg connects to the head member at a fore pitch hinge, and extends in the deployment configuration and folds aft beneath the head member in the stowage configuration. The first and second rear legs connect to the head member by corresponding rear lateral hinges. Each rear leg has a rail member that slides longitudinally therealong. The rear legs splay outward from the head member in the deployment configuration and contract substantially parallel in the stowage configuration. The traverse bar includes an elongated member for mounting the T&E device, first and second terminals at opposite ends of the elongated member, and a sprocket. The elongated member has an arc curvature that enables the T&E device to travel along the elongated member with constant elevation of the machine gun. The terminals respectively attach to the first and second legs by respective orifices. The first terminal includes a circular serrated cavity to receive the sprocket that has the first pivot orifice being offset from its axial center. The sprocket is removable to rotate the first pivot orifice for subsequent reinsertion into the serrated cavity.
