DEVICE FOR POSITIONING TRANSPORT-LAUNCHING CONTAINER ON LAUNCHER Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC F41F3/42 F41F3/52 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: device for positioning transport-launching container on launcher consists of guides (4 and 5) whereon there is installed transport-launching container (TLC) (1) travelling along guides and mechanism of lengthwise travel of TLC (1) with pusher (6) interacting with TLC (1) at pushing it into normal place and with pusher (7) interacting with TLC (1) at its unloading. Also pushers (6 and 7) perform reciprocal travels. Mechanism of lengthwise transfer of TLC (1) is equipped with hydro- or pneumatic cylinder (8) of double action with a rod made of two parts. Pushers (6 and 7) are rigidly secured on different parts of the rod, while pusher (6) is secured on a part of rod (9) at interaction with TLC at its re-forwarding. Pusher (6) rotates around its axis at rod lengthwise travel.

EFFECT: increased serviceability of launcher due to facilitation of TLC re-forwarding to normal position and at unloading projectiles from it.
