Study Effects of Shock Absorbers Parameters to Recoil of Automatic Weapons

Abstract

The paper deals with study effects of structural parameters shock absorbers to the displacement of the automatic weapon and the forces acting on the mount during firing. The study is focused on the PKT 7.62mm caliber machine-gun originally mounted on the combat vehicles and tanks via twin spring shock absorbers. The four types of the one spring shock absorbers are considered during fire in bursts and single shot for the reduction of forces in course of the weapon function.
