Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0918204A2] An ammunition box for belted ammunition has a low friction coating on the inside bottom to support the rounds standing on the bottom. The loops of the belt are separated by thin vertical walls and the belt is taken out of the box by an exit slot. To assist the transfer of heavy caliber rounds the belted ammunition is guided out of the box via a star shaped wheel. Access to the ammunition is via a removable lid. The separating walls can be fitted with profiled combs to hold the ammunition and with end rollers to guide the belt loops.
