  • Patent number: 11906259
    Abstract: A test fixture for testing firearms or ammunition according to the present disclosure includes a base, a barrel retention assembly, a door, and a firing pin. The base includes a longitudinal channel. The barrel retention assembly is configured to support a firearm barrel in the longitudinal channel. The door is pivotably mounted to the base and is configured to move from a closed position contacting a rear face of the base to an open position spaced from the rear face of the base. The firing pin is supported in a housing. The housing is slideably supported within the base and is configured to move between a first position and a second position. The first position aligns the firing pin and a longitudinal axis of the barrel retention assembly and the second position provides access to the barrel retention assembly.

  • Publication number: 20190360388
    Abstract: A fuel injector for injecting fuel vapour into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The injector has a central axis and is mountable to the internal combustion engine so that the fuel injector projects into the combustion chamber. The injector has an inlet for supplying fuel to the fuel injector. The inlet projects from the injector body at a first circumferential position of the injector body. The inlet has a component of projection, X, radially outward relative to the central axis of the injector. The injector also has a spray nozzle having a tip and the spray nozzle extends longitudinally from the injector body. The injector has a plurality of spray discharge orifices formed on the tip with an even radial distribution about the tip. Each spray discharge orifice is configured to discharge fuel vapour. Each spray discharge orifice has a component of direction parallel to the central axis and a component of direction, Y, radially outward relative to the central axis.
