"Knee bone connected to the leg bone"...and the...:
My idea is the hybrid chamber is pressurized, fueled to fire.
There is a photocell switch with polycarbonate lens facing inside the chamber.
The photocell closes a switch to turn on a solenoid on the magazine which moves it forward,(edit: or rearward (?)) blocking the opening ,
There's a more traditional contact switch mounted on the magazine's moving parts (and outside barrel) that closes to turn on the spark.
Series with those is the push button trigger switch. (one flash per press, with a simple mechanical light blocker attached)(edit: not series electrically, series by mechanical light blocker and initial LED flash impulse)...
I was trying to figure if the push button trigger could simply flash (On ,off,on,off...) an LED light into the photocell controlling the magazine movement (magazine closes ignition switch connected to it).
While each flash from ignition causes the cycle to repeat.
I arrived at: the trigger will normally block the photocell (mechanical blinder), but on first pull give a single flash until released and pressed again.
It's a little confusing to figure...But the first artificial flash(LED) gets it going, fuel ignition flash keeps it going unless the trigger is released blocking all light. (edit:to photocell)
It needs another switch, (pressure switch near muzzle to activate a electronic check valve in chamber) to vent(?)
Or is that necessary?
It's a late night design, wondering on feedback, thoughts, criticism too...Thanks in advance... Errr, I mean your welcome for the concept in advance too
