摘要:<p>The present invention relates to a method and a device for the preparation of propellant charges for automatic loading into artillery guns (1) of the type which are loaded with propellant in the form of propellant modules usually designated charge modules (20), which have uniform section and combustible mainly stiff casings. The invention is based on the utilization of a special type of magazine (13) in which sets of charge modules (20) which correspond to the maximum charge for the artillery gun are successively fed to a module feeding device opening (21) where the quantity of charge modules (20) required for the next projectile is fed from the magazine (13) to a loading pendulum which is swung into position at the module feeding device opening (21). Loading pendulum (27) is fitted with devices for arranging the charge modules (20) in a straight column above or following each other and for compressing the charge modules (20) longitudinally into a unified propellant charge which can subsequently by rammed automatically by a conventional flick rammer. The charge modules (20) which are superfluous following each charge loading operation are fed back to magazine (13).</p>
