    Abstract: A recoil system for field-type guns automatically adjusts the recoil distance of the barrel according to the angle of elevation of the gun barrel relative to the ground. The system includes a recoil cylinder in fixed relationship to the gun barrel and a piston rod operably connected to a two-art piston valve within the cylinder. The rotational position of one of the valve parts is controlled by the angular position of the piston rod about its axis and the rotation position of the second valve part is controlled by its axial piston within the recoil cylinder bore. Fluid flow orifi are defined between the first and second valve part, the area of the orifi being determined by the rotational positions of the two valve parts relative to each other. As barrel elevation is increased, the piston rod is rotated via a camming device which is itself moved by a tooth riding in a non-axial and non-linear slot in the camming device. The higher the barrel elevation, the smaller the orifi area defined between the two valve parts and the shorter the recoil distance allowed before fluid flow is terminated and barrel recoil arrested.

    Abstract: A temperature compensator for a recoil system and methods of use therein are disclosed. The temperature compensator can be used to regulate compressible fluid flow in a recoil system for an artillery weapon, including limiting a total volume of compressible fluid used to drive recoiling components of the system. This allows the recoil parts be to driven with consistency, notwithstanding the volumetric expansion of the compressible fluid due to temperature changes. In certain embodiments, the temperature compensator can include a tube having opposing first and second ends, and an elongated through portion extending therebetween. A flange can extend radially from the first end of the tube and be configured for sliding engagement within a recuperator cylinder of the soft recoil system. A one-way valve can be coupled to the flange at the first end and configured to restrict fluid entry to the elongated through portion via the first end.

    Abstract: A specialized recoil absorber mounted to a gun dampens and absorbs the recoil force of a gun during the firing thereof. The recoil absorber includes a closed, fluid filled cylinder having a first end and a second end. A piston closely fits within the cylinder and slides therein along the cylinders longitudinal axis and a spring is compressed between the piston and the first end. The cylinder defines channels at an outer diametrical surface thereof, the channels having a helical twist centered on the longitudinal axis, whereby the piston rotates as it translates.

    Abstract: The invention provides an improvement in a conventional recoil system comsing a piston-cylinder arrangement, wherein a piston driven by recoil energy forces hydraulic fluid out of the cylinder through an orifice to dissipate recoil force. The invention provides an additional flowpath for hydraulic fluid, which contains a servo valve for controlling the pressure in the cylinder so that the desired recoil peak pressure/time curve can be achieved for any firing impulse. The invention also includes sensors for measuring hydraulic fluid pressure and the initial velocity of the recoiling parts imparted by the firing impulse, and a controller means including a microprocessor for calculating or determining the desired peak pressure based on this initial velocity and available recoil distance and transducers for measuring any variation of pressure from the desired peak pressure and applying an appropriate voltage to the servo valve to control the pressure and achieve the desired peak pressure during the recoil cycle.

    Abstract: A gun mount for use in sighting-in long guns having or not having a large bottom feed, clip magazine, belt, drum or other bottom loaded ammunition feed system includes a base to be mounted on a table top or other suitable surface and that supports a rotatably mounted gun holder on which a long gun is placed. The gun holder allows the gun barrel to be adjustably fixed in each of a horizontal and vertical position. An aligned sight picture is set into the gun sights and is maintained or reset after the gun is fired by shock absorbers that keep recoil shock from changing the sight settings, or return the gun to the position at which the sights have been set.

    Abstract: A locking mechanism for locking an orientation of a weapon is disclosed. The locking mechanism includes a first movable arm adapted to contact and apply pressure onto a control surface associated with the weapon, and a second movable arm adapted to contact and apply pressure onto the control surface associated with the weapon. The locking mechanism further includes a valve for applying and removing resistance to the first movable arm and the second movable arm, to thereby control a resistance to movement of the first movable arm and the second movable arm. The valve is adapted to remove resistance from the first movable arm and the second moveable arm in order to allow the weapon to be moved freely into a desired orientation. After the weapon is moved into the desired orientation, the valve may be moved again to increase resistance to thereby allow for fine adjustments in the orientation of the weapon. Finally, the valve may be completely closed to lock the orientation of the weapon. The first movable arm and the second movable arm each have separate hydraulic cylinders and pistons, and the valve couples the first hydraulic cylinder to the second hydraulic cylinder.
