PCT No. PCT/SE95/01181 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 2, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 2, 1997 PCT Filed Oct. 13, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/12152 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 25, 1996A method and apparatus for automatically transferring a vertically standing ammunition component from a delivery opening in a carriage mounted magazine to a flick rammer incorporated in a gun elevation system is provided. In the method, a loading pendulum is positioned immediately outside the delivery opening of the magazine and parallel to the ammunition component. The ammunition component is then ejected from the magazine onto the loading pendulum without changing the vertical orientation of the ammunition component. The ammunition component is then locked in the loading pendulum and the loading pendulum is raised about a first axle to a substantially horizontal position. An outer cradle, in which the loading pendulum is suspended, is then lowered about a second axle coinciding with the trunnion center of the gun to an angle which coincides with the elevation of the gun and to a position above the flick rammer such that the ammunition component is immediate above the flick rammer. The ammunition component is then unlocked and transferred from the loading pendulum into the flick rammer. |
