Patent number: 11815324Abstract: A rifle has a fixed main body, including a barrel, a receiver with an upper opening, and a breech element. A trigger group is at least partially housed in the receiver, including a trigger and a hammer device operable by the trigger. A carriage assembly includes an assembly body and a shutter group at least partially housed in the assembly body. The carriage assembly is positioned on the receiver at the upper opening and is axially movable by a user between an advanced shooting configuration and a retracted rearming configuration. Upon axial movement of the carriage assembly, between the retracted and advanced configurations, the shutter group is first moved axially in translation and then in roto-translation. The shutter group includes a central body and a command pin protruding radially from the shutter body. The command pin engages the assembly body so reciprocal interaction guides the shutter group in rotation.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2022Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: FABBRICA D'ARMI PIETRO BERETTA S.P.A.Inventors: Ulrich Zedrosser, Fausto Caravaggi, Emanuele Cecchel

Patent number: 11774201Abstract: A firearm, such as a rifle, has a trigger group operable by the user in order to control the shooting action. The trigger group includes a trigger and an adjustment device for adjusting the intensity needed to operate the trigger. The adjustment device includes a rod (151) movable by the trigger extending between a trigger end and a free end. A command member engaged with the rod is positionable in a predefined operating axial position. The rod slidably engages with the command member. A thrust spring acts on the rod between the engagement end and the command member. Elastic action of the thrust spring on the trigger is a function of the axial operating position of the command member.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2022Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: FABBRICA D'ARMI PIETRO BERETTA S.P.A.Inventors: Ennio Plebani, Calogero Spoto
