Chapter 124 Cross-generation
"Little..."
Shi Si's words were not finished, but Chen Moran, who was curious about the gun, had pulled the trigger. The moment the index finger pulled the trigger, there was a gunshot on the shooting range.
One shot, two shots, three shots... The sound of this gunfire made Shi Si feel relieved. As the designer of this rifle, of course, he knew where the fault of the gun was. In fact, this problem was exactly what he wanted to solve.
However, today it seems to be very competitive. There is no problem with the test firing of other prototype guns in the past. Looking at Chen Moran who was playing happily with the trigger, Shi Si couldn't help shouting that he was coming. The weather is really good today!
Pulling and moving the wrench, but in just a few seconds, after shooting the ten magazines, the bolt hanged, and Chen Moran was stunned by the gun. This... Isn't this semi-automatic! Although it looks a little strange and even ugly, it is indeed a semi-automatic rifle.
"With wave, this...this is a semi-automatic rifle!"
"semi-automatic rifle?"
Shi Si was stunned. Shouldn't this be an automatic rifle? But when he was secretly shouting luck, he nodded.
"Hmm! Just a semi-automatic rifle!"
Touching this gun, Chen Moran's eyes were shining. If his troops used this kind of gun, it would be really like rain on the battlefield at this time and unstoppable.
"Suibo, how much is this gun!"
The boss's problem made Shi Si talk about it silently for a while. Not to mention this sum, he really spent a lot of money to get this gun.
"Yes, this gun belongs to the "workshop-type gun". Due to the time-consuming manufacturing and processing, including the test products produced in the past, the average unit price should be about 800 yuan!"
"800 yuan!"
Chen Moran was shocked by this number. Are you kidding? The "industry" is only 10 yuan, and this gun is bought 80 industries.
Seeing that Chen Moran was scared by his own number, Shi Si quickly explained.
"This is just a workshop gun, not mass production. If it is mass production, it should be... it should be reduced to about 120 to 200 yuan! Of course, it still depends on the output. If the output is large, special equipment can be added for production, so that the cost can be reduced!"
"It's too expensive! It's too expensive!"
Listening to the price, Chen Moran quickly waved his hand and said it twice. The gun was too expensive to be equipped! Even if a gun is at the cheapest price, it is enough to equip a class. It's really too expensive!
Let's wait until we have money in the future!
It's a pity that Chen Moran picked up another magazine and poured bullets out of the cardboard box. The double-row double-forward magazine presses very easily. And Shi Si also smiled helplessly. This gun was just a try. Such an expensive gun equipment force can be said to be worth the loss. Maybe an automatic rifle can be worth ten rifles, but the price is more than ten rifles. The cost of equipment is too high. No one will choose this weapon.
"Give a few, and have fun when you're free!"
Thinking so in my heart, the butt of the gun is against the shoulder, aiming and shooting at three points and one line.
"D..."
On the one hand, the sound of gunfire echoed on the shooting range, but Chen Moran's face was pale by the sound of gunfire. The pain on his shoulder and the rifle with his upper finger were nearly 40 degrees. The roar in his ears reminded him of what he had just shot just now.
The rifle pointing to the sky trembled between Chen Moran's hands, and his shoulders were sorely hit by the continuous back seat, so that he was scared by the sound of the gunfire, and his white face was twisted into a ball.
"God!"
The familiar gunshot even made Shi Si's resentful gunfire sound, he patted his forehead. The problem was still coming. This is one of the shortcomings of this rifle. Although he referred to the fast and slow machine of the submachine gun, the fast and slow machine on the submachine gun also had the problem of singles.
Although his shoulders were a little sore and he was shocked by the continuous sound of guns, now Chen Moran stared at the rifle in his hand, which weighed about 5 kilograms to 6 kilograms, and his face was full of excitement.
"Suibo, you just said how much is this gun?"
The change of Chen Moran's expression fell into Shi Si's eyes. He couldn't figure out why he was so excited. He quickly opened his mouth and replied.
"The most... the lowest 120!"
"How much is the Maxim we made?"
Chen Moran, who was almost reluctant to let go with a gun, asked again.
"One thousand six hundred and ninety-five yuan hexagonal, seven yuan for each bullet..."
Shi Si, who was all thinking about it, quoted the price of the Maxim machine gun. He made a copy of the Swiss MG00 Maxim machine gun purchased through a foreign bank. Although Chen Moran also reversed the drawings with him, he was responsible for the transformation in the end. In order to reduce the cost, he put a large number of brass parts. It has been changed to steel parts, and even to improve the shooting accuracy, a tripod with a spring soft recoil is designed.
From the unit price of 2,6,92.99 cents, it was reduced to 1,690 yuan. The unit price was reduced, but it did not fall to the bottom. 5,000 bullets did not break down. Maxim was his proud work, almost second to this rifle.
He muttered the cost of the Maxim machine gun in his heart, and Chen Moran pointed to the gun in his hand.
"Open this guard!"
Although he didn't understand Chen Moran's intention, Shi Si still honestly took apart the guard.
"...This trachea is based on the piston rod principle of the Haqikais machine gun, the piston rod and..."
When Shi Si pointed to the rifle after removing the guard and explained the principle of the rifle to Chen Moran, Chen Moran stared at the rifle on the wooden platform with bright eyes. After folding the rifle guard, if he did not look at the butt, the gun was very close to a gun he had seen in the magazine and in the movie. The same lower tracheafer. The same upper magazine is used to supply ammunition.
Czech light machine gun, thinking about the machine gun, Chen Moran's classic image in Chinese movies and TV will immediately appear in front of his eyes. A soldier with neat clothes and a little oil smoke, holding a light machine gun with a magazine in his arms, he opened his mouth and roared, pulled the trigger at the enemy and poured out ruthlessly. And it is an endless rain of bullets.
"Suibo, this gun... is too expensive to make a semi-automatic rifle, but if it is a light machine gun, it would be great!"
Chen Moran, with his eyes shining, stared at the gun on the table, and even touched it with his hand from time to time.
"The barrel is thickened and heavier. The rifle barrel is too thin, and then on the trachea, that is, in this position, add a foldable bipod, and then change the rifle buttstock. The butt is the buttstock, and the grip is made into a pistol-style grip. The ten-shot magazine is changed to twenty... No, change it to a 30-shot magazine. Just like a submachine gun, it is mainly continuous shooting, right! That's it, follow the wave, you start to transform it immediately!"
Light machine gun! A light machine gun costs 120 yuan, it's cheap! With his eyes shining, he looked a little excited. Finally, as if he remembered something, he casually took out a stack of paper from Ma Xiaoliu's file bag on the table, lay on the desk of the shooting range, and drew the appearance of the Czech machine gun in his memory on the back of the paper.
"Add another handle to the barrel, which is easy to carry, and the handle can be used as a handguard, um... that's it!"
Picking up the thick stack of paper and looking at the gun on it that had been changed by Chen Moran, Shi Si looked a little confused. After a closer look, he looked up at Chen Moran.
"It's not complicated to change it to a machine gun, but the problem is the barrel. Unless we add a water-cooled holster or a Hakis-style heat sink to the barrel, or fire a few hundred bullets, the barrel will burn red and may even explode. How to solve this problem?"
"It's simple, change the barrel, and design a system to quickly change the barrel!"
As soon as Shi Si's question was raised, Chen Moran blurted out a solution.
"Quick replacement of barrel?"
How to quickly replace the barrel? Shi Si couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"With the wave, look here!"
At the connection between the barrel and the box in his hand, Chen Moran recalled in his mind the principle of the rapid replacement of the barrel system of the Czech machine gun in a magazine, which was very simple.
"It is to install a broken screw system, leaving a broken bolt fixing ring here, and a long handle on the fixing ring. When replacing the barrel, as long as the long handle on the fixing ring is rotated upward, the barrel can be pulled forward. When loading the barrel, just insert the long handle under pressure!"
Listening to Chen Moran's explanation, looking at him drawing the simple barrel quick-changing system with his fingers, some stunned Shi Si almost did not believe that it would be so simple. The principle of breaking bolts has been invented for hundreds of years. Even if it is used in the tail lock of artillery, it has been used for decades, but it has always been No one linked the locking and replacement of his barrel.
Staring at Chen Moran's head, Shi Si couldn't help thinking about what was in his head. When he saw the seamless steel pipe, he created an extremely simple point, which was only equivalent to the cost of a few rifles. He even used the old-style artillery to pull the barrel and developed a long-handled grenade. In the past few months, he didn't It's rare to see Chen Moran's wonderful ideas.
"Yes, there is a question that I want to ask!"
Shi Si, who was in doubt, hesitated and said, "Huh?"
"Which school did you graduate from? Who is the tutor?
For his whimsical ideas, Shi Si came to the idea of studying in the university he attended.
"I..."
Shi Si's question made Chen Moran stunned first, and then smiled again.
"I am self-taught!"
Finally, I even added another sentence.
"Hmm! There's nothing you can do if you are smart!"
Chen Moran's words just made Shi Si speechless. Usually, he was a stable person, and he became proud at this time.
He was embarrassed. Shi Si looked at the "light machine gun" in his hand, and then seemed to divert his attention and turned over the stack of paper in his hand, but there were some drawings on the paper.
"Huh! This is..."
"Oh! I just cared about this light machine gun, but I forgot the business.
Shi Si's reminder reminded Chen Moran of his purpose of coming to Ma'anshan to send these drawings.
"There are some mechanical transformation drawings here. Aren't we going to imitate the bullet machine? I drew some drawings and changed the bullet machine transmitted to the ground shaft to its own motor drive. I calculated that if such a change is made, the efficiency should be improved by about 10%!"
Take the thick stack of paper from Shi Si's hand, and Chen Moran turned over several pages to explain. The imitation of the bullet machine is due to the successful imitation of the Maxim machine gun. The power of the machine gun is great, but it also costs bullets. It only relies on the 63 machines. Even if it is produced in three shifts a day, except for the time of pre-repairing the machine, it can produce 800,000 bullets a month, but this bullet is not enough for heavy machine guns at all. That's why there is a move to imitate the bullet machine and expand the bullet factory.
"The built-in motor is definitely the future development trend. This is a good idea!"
Shi Si nodded and agreed. Looking at the drawings handed to him by Chen Moran, even if it was only a brief drawing, it could be seen that Chen Moran did have a hand in drawing, just like the anti-imitation of Mark Qin. At that time, Shi Si almost did something for him.
And Chen Moran not only drew the drawings, but also formulated the whole process process, including the material quality, types and acceptance samples required for each part, which require a lot of experimental calculations, and this is exactly where Shi Si admires Chen Moran most. These works are not First, it doesn't need to accumulate rich experience. Even if he does it, he may not be able to do it well, but Chen Moran did it.
If Shi Si knew the reason, he would be annoyed and spit out blood. The reason was very simple. After dozens of years, Chinese machinery even gave up innovation that needed inspiration at all, but blindly engaged in anti-imitation. Naturally, reverse engineering became the focus of mechanical students's learning. Chen Moran had quite good grades in school. In the reverse engineering, I have been familiar with the road for a long time. The experience accumulated by the school is just used here.
Holding the drawings in his hand and explaining to Shi Si one by one for an hour, the transformation plan of the self-driving force of the bullet machine was finally introduced. At this time, there were still more than a dozen drawings left in Chen Moran's hand. Looking at the drawings in his hand, he looked a little unnatural.
What kind of drawings are there? It's just that Chen Moran compares at home with the Soviet Union's ЗиС-3 cannon in the February 2006 issue of the old magazine, the gun body structure, the decomposition of the muzzle receder, the muzzle retractor principle, the tail structure, the upper shelf decomposition, the high and low machine transmission, the lower shelf structure and the station. The action diagram of the retreating re-entering machine is drawn with the "new artillery basic design schematic diagram", and the most important of them is probably the hydraulic re-entering machine and the stationing machine diagram.
In the past few months, the company has bought three cannons at a high price through various channels. The three guns are the "most advanced" rapid-firing guns, with re-injection and re-arrisoning rapid-fire guns, without exception, are quite primitive rein principle, and the most important function of these sketches is to explain the hydraulic re-injection. The working principle of the machine and the station.
The function of the re-in machine is similar to the spring of the vehicle suspension system that Chen Moran is familiar with, and the working principle of the retraction machine is exactly the same as that of the shock absorber. No matter which direction the gun body moves, it only absorbs and consumes energy, and the natural design is handy.
"Sui Bo, this is my own idle painting and playing. On the gun, you are an er, so please come and have a look!"
When he spoke, Chen Moran first gave him the three views of the S.С-3 cannon, and then he could explain the design intention one by one. In fact, it was nothing more than copying according to the introduction of the artillery structure in the magazine, and he even specially copied one.
"... When the gun is fired, the restationing machine, the restraining rod and the re-in rod connected to the gun body are all in the back seat with the gun body. After the artillery is fired, the gun sits behind, and the air in the re-entering machine is compressed to store energy, and the ** in the retreating machine flows through the gap to dissipate energy. When the rear of the gun is finished, the air in the re-entering machine expands to push the gun body forward. At this time, the function of the restationing machine is still to dissipate energy to produce damping, preventing the gun body from hitting the front frame and damaging the gun too fast. ......"
When making an explanation, Chen Moran did not notice the sharp change in his expression when Shi Si looked at these drawings, especially the action diagrams of the hydraulic re-in machine and the re-arrison machine. As a gun expert, he knew the value of the action diagram better than others, and even the new gun frame structure. All powerful countries can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Since the 1880s, inventors have designed a variety of complex mechanisms to absorb the recomb of artillery to improve the rate of fire of artillery. Although all countries have adopted spring restationary devices, it is not ideal. Solving the recomb problem of field artillery has always been the focus of attention of all countries.
"However, maybe you don't know, but I can tell you clearly that although your drawings are simple, they will definitely set off a revolution in artillery technology!"
Although it has not been tested, Shi Si can see the development potential of this hydraulic reiner and reiner from the action diagram of the hydraulic reiner and reinjector, which will definitely be a revolutionary invention in the history of artillery development.
Revolutionary surname, maybe! Can something 40 years later not have a revolutionary surname? Thinking like this in his heart, but Chen Moran's expression seemed to be very calm. Before it was created, the revolutionary surname was in vain.
"What technological revolution is not revolutionary! Suibo, what we need to do now is to improve him. I don't have this much ability. You can complete the rest! Let the world's first-class artillery be produced in the workshop of our industrial company!"
The mission instantly surged in Shi Si's mind, and he nodded vigorously.
"Yes, don't worry, I will try my best to refer to your design and integrate the most advanced artillery in the world!"
"The cannon needs to be done, but with the wave, it's better to solve the problem of this light machine gun first. The redesign of the barrel, the bipod, the Tu's, the production process and so on. Before the New Year, it's already God's blessing that you can complete this work! And at that time, we have to conduct a reliable surname test, but we can't shoot more than 300 shots like that submachine gun, and it will break down!"
Chen Moran smiled and showed some embarrassment on his face. The submachine gun was a drawing he drew according to the drawings in the magazine, but the design was lame. A few hundred shots would always fail. At the beginning, the soldiers on the island liked the submachine gun very much, but now... they were still willing to With a submachine gun, I am occasionally worried. When I wear a submachine gun, I will definitely carry a rifle on my back.
Fortunately, fortunately, most of the time, there is no need to shoot hundreds of shots at all. This may be thinking that Chen Moran will comfort himself like this when his wife's guard is leaning on the submachine gun.
After thinking of his wife from the submachine gun, Chen Moran saw it and remembered today's day. At this time, Ji Li should have been in London! I hope everything goes well with her there. Whether it can keep the Anglo-Mexico Petroleum Company depends on my wife's activities in London.
