A Grenade Launcher

Abstract

The invention relates to a grenade launcher; capable of optional bi-directional ammunition feeding and unloading; Capable of firing 40x46 and 40x51 mm ammunition; Can be mounted under an infantry rifle when desired, and can be used with a portable stock when desired. The invention allows the user to determine the barrel opening direction with a single button (direction button) and to automatically open the barrel in the specified direction with a single button (opening latch) and to feed and unload ammunition.

1 . The invention is a grenade launcher ( 1 ), comprising;
 the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) fixed in the opposite direction of the desired opening direction of the barrel ( 1 . 1 ), after user applies pressure force on the locking selector ( 1 . 3 ) and opens the lock mechanism, the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) is pushed from the desired direction and the locking mechanism with a spring system of the other selector ( 1 . 3 ) on the pushed side is activated.   the lock mechanism that enables the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) to move and to be fixed in the position where the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) is positioned when the movement is finished,   selectors ( 1 . 3 ), which are a part of the lock mechanism and enable the lock mechanism to work by applying pressure or removing the pressure applied on it,   the opening latch ( 1 . 4 ) on which the pressure force is applied when the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) is desired to open, after the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) is positioned in the opposite direction of the direction to which the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) is desired to open,   the barrel lock ( 1 . 5 ), which is opened after the pressure force is applied on the opening latch ( 1 . 4 ),   the cam pin ( 1 . 7 ) that allows the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) to rotate in the desired direction by starting to move angularly within the channels ( 1 . 2 . 2 ) on the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) when the opening latch ( 1 . 4 ) is pressed and the barrel lock ( 1 . 5 ) is opened.   and   the spring slide system that enables the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) to open linearly in the desired direction by working simultaneously with the cam pin ( 1 . 7 ) after the barrel lock ( 1 . 5 ) is opened.   
     
     
         2 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; The lock mechanism consisting of two locking slots ( 1 . 2 . 1 ) located on the direction button ( 1 . 2 ), two selectors ( 1 . 3 ) that will operate in these two locking slots ( 1 . 2 . 1 ) and compression springs inside the selector ( 1 . 3 ) parts. 
     
     
         3 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; The selector ( 1 . 3 ), which is suitable for the position of the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) which provides locking when it enters the locking slot ( 1 . 2 . 1 ) 
     
     
         4 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; channels ( 1 . 2 . 2 ) in the structure of the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) that allow the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) to open to the right or left, 
     
     
         5 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; The locking mechanism that prevents the direction button ( 1 . 2 ) from changing position unintentionally during use 
     
     
         6 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; spring slide system consisting of slide drive shaft ( 1 . 6 ), slide ( 1 . 8 ) and slide compression spring ( 1 . 10 ) 
     
     
         7 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; The slide ( 1 . 8 ) attached to the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) mechanism with the hinge pin ( 1 . 9 ) applying pressure to the slide compression spring ( 1 . 10 ) on the slide drive shaft ( 1 . 6 ) inside the upper body when the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) is in the locked position. 
     
     
         8 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; the slide ( 1 . 8 ) that enables the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) to move forward linearly by transmitting the stored energy on the slide compression spring ( 1 . 10 ), which is compressed when the barrel ( 1 . 1 ) is opened, to the barrel ( 1 . 1 ). 
     
     
         9 . A grenade launcher ( 1 ) as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising; direction button ( 1 . 2 ) positioned on the opposite side of the locking selector ( 1 . 3 ) among the selectors ( 1 . 3 ) in the locking mechanism
