Recoil damping device for portable firearms
A recoil damping device for portable firearms, including a damping means inserted in the casing; a movable insert is functionally associated with the damping means and slide along a direction that is substantially axial with respect to the casing; the damping means is constituted by a body formed by a cellular solid having a stochastic structure, such as a foam, or having a nonstochastic structure, such as a reticular structure, lattice, etc.
1. A recoil damping device for portable firearms, comprising a casing and a damping means inserted in said casing; said device comprising a movable insert functionally associated with said damping means; said movable insert being adapted to slide along a direction that is substantially axial with respect to said casing; said damping means being constituted by a body formed by a cellular solid;
further comprising a primary braking assembly, mounted in said movable insert, and a secondary braking assembly, integral with said casing; said primary braking assembly dissipating energy by sliding, with friction, with respect to said secondary braking assembly.
2. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein the cellular solid has a stochastic structure that comprises layers of material; said layers operate in series.
3. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein the cellular solid has a nonstochastic structure that comprises materials chosen among polymeric materials, mutually combined in series and/or in parallel.
4. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein said damping means has a side opposite to a buttstock associated with said device; said opposite side comprising a layer made of denser material and having a function of reducing the impact between said casing and said movable insert, when said insert reaches the end of the stroke of the insert.
5. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein said movable insert is configured to be coupled to said damping means; wherein the dampening means moves in a direction transverse to the sliding direction of said movable insert to facilitate coupling of the dampening means to the insert.
6. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein said movable insert is formed monolithically with said damping means, forming a monolithic body.
7. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein said damping means comprises a structure formed by two distinct and concatenated geometries which work in parallel.
8. The device, according to claim 1 , wherein said secondary braking assembly comprises two pairs of blades which create friction during the translation of said movable insert.
9. A recoil damping device for portable firearms, comprising a casing and a damping means inserted in said casing; said device comprising a movable insert functionally associated with said damping means; said movable insert being adapted to slide along a direction that is substantially axial with respect to said casing; said damping means being constituted by a body formed by a cellular solid;
wherein said movable insert is configured to be coupled to said damping means; wherein the dampening means moves in a direction transverse to the sliding direction of said movable insert to facilitate coupling of the dampening means to the insert.
10. The device, according to claim 9 , wherein the cellular solid has a stochastic structure that comprises layers of material; said layers operate in series.
11. The device, according to claim 9 , wherein the cellular solid has a nonstochastic structure that comprises materials chosen among polymeric materials mutually combined in series and/or in parallel.
12. The device, according to claim 9 , wherein said damping means has a side opposite to a buttstock associated with said device; said opposite side comprising a layer made of denser material and having a function of reducing the impact between said casing and said movable insert, when said insert reaches the end of the stroke of the insert.
13. The device, according to claim 9 , comprising a primary braking assembly, mounted in said movable insert, and a secondary braking assembly, integral with said casing; said primary braking assembly dissipating energy by sliding, with friction, with respect to said secondary braking assembly.
14. The device, according to claim 9 , wherein said damping means comprises a structure formed by two distinct and concatenated geometries which work in parallel.
15. The device, according to claim 13 , wherein said secondary braking assembly comprises two pairs of blades which create friction during the translation of said movable insert.
