ABSTRACT:
In ammunition-stowage systems in which the individual shells can be inserted in storage tubes, damage to the shells is prevented when they are inserted too rapidly. A braking device is positioned for this purpose at each storage tube and brakes the longitudinal travel of the shell as soon as the shell arrives at the position inside the storage tube that corresponds to the rest position, in which it is secured in place by the securing hooks. The braking device preferably grasps the impact part of the shell and is connected to a stop that can be displaced longitudinally by a system of rods that activates the braking device when it is displaced as soon as the shell comes to rest against the stop and the stop is shifted out beyond its rest position into the shell-insertion position by the moving shell. The braking device consists of a braking block that is mounted in such a way that it can move on two parallel connecting rods and is thrust forward and forced by the connecting rods against the shell, specifically against the impact part, when the rod system travels forward longitudinally.
