belt feeder coupling
Explanation:
An ammunition belt feeder according to the invention is characterised by the fact that a feed sprocket for the belt is arranged in such a way with respect to at least two, and preferably three, feed apertures provided in the housing of the belt feeder, and the housing is so constructed, that with the feed sprocket constantly driven in the same direction of rotation it is possible to feed an ammunition belt through any one of the feed apertures at will.
A belt feeder according to the invention differs from those hitherto known in that the transition from one type of ammunition to another or to the feeding of a belt in another feed aperture is possible without changing the switching means in the belt feeder, without the use of tools, and without requiring different belting.
The feed sprocket is connected to the drive in a known manner by means of a ratchet coupling.
