Definitions
- the invention relates to a mist explosive grenade that can be fired from a portable anti-tank weapon, in particular a recoil-free infantry weapon.
- Mist explosive grenades each consist essentially of a grenade sleeve with a central fragmentation charge (explosive charge) extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the grenade and a pyrotechnic active mass enclosing the fragmentation charge.
- the known smoke grenades have an impact detonator on the front, which ignites the fragmentation charge when the grenade strikes the target area and releases the pyrotechnic active material, which consists, for example, of white phosphorus (cf. for example: Rheinmetall "Waffentechnisches Taschenbuch", 7th edition 1985, p. 491 ).
- smoke grenades are made using portable anti-tank weapons, e.g. Bazookas that can be fired.
- portable anti-tank weapons e.g. Bazookas
- the Internet article "FFV Carl Gustaf” http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFV_Carl_Gustaf) called up on May 2nd, 2012 states that smoke grenades are also available for the reactive armored rifle FFV Carl Gustav.
- the structure of such a smoke grenade is not known from the published prior art.
- the DE 10 2011 107 960 B3 discloses ammunition for marking an air detonation point or a point of impact. Before or when the practice ammunition is fired, a time fuse arranged in the bottom of the ammunition is programmed in such a way that the charge is ignited before the projectile body hits a target. The resulting pressure ensures that the marking material container tears, so that the marking material is thrown outwards.
- the EP 0 805 333 A2 describes a method for providing a dummy target with which both IR- and RF-guided as well as dual-mode-guided missiles are directed away from the actual target towards a dummy target. Such a sham targets are used by a thrower in a large number. After deployment, the active bodies with the active charges are ejected from the housing of a decoy.
- the US 4,860,657 A relates to a projectile or projectile with throwing agent contained therein.
- the throwing agent can be a single or partially filling the inside of the throwing agent container, which is obtained by pressing pellets from a fog kit based on red phosphorus and granules from a fog kit based on red phosphorus while largely maintaining the integrity of the pellets and formation a porous structure comprising the individual pellets has been produced from the granulate.
- the result of the throwing agent is a combination of a compact based on phosphorus and corresponding flammable thin sheets, which serve to emit infrared radiation.
- Circular leaflets are preferably used, which have the shape of a circular sector with an angle of approximately 120 °.
- the invention has for its object to provide a smoke grenade that can be fired from a portable anti-tank weapon, and makes it possible to fog an enemy position or an enemy vehicle as quickly and over a large area.
- A1 ammunition with active agents is known which are initiated and released at the same time and / or with a time delay.
- the setting is made using so-called delay rates.
- the different delay times can in turn be implemented in different delay elements.
- a pressure-controlled delay element is used in the DE 10 2012 014 150 A1 and a mechanically adjustable one in the DE 10 2012 014 149 B3 described.
- the present invention is essentially based on the idea of providing the mist explosive grenade with a time fuse instead of an impact detonator.
- This is programmable in such a way that the fragmentation charge is ignited in the immediate vicinity of the enemy position, but before the grenade has reached the ground, and releases the mist-producing active mass there.
- a range finder preferably integrated in the weapon, determines the distance to the target. For example, the target is sighted manually and the range finder, e.g. a laser, preferably triggered manually. The expert knows alternatives.
- This measured value is then processed in the igniter electronics and defines the runtime until dismantling (airburst). By igniting the fog producing mass, approx. 6-8 m above the ground, a relatively extensive fog wall (line of sight) is created very quickly between the shooter and the target.
- the pyrotechnic active mass is formed by flares, which consist of a large number of film strips.
- the pyrotechnic active mass is preferably arranged between the fragmentation charge and a shell shell.
- the film strips are each coated with an incendiary composition which contains red phosphorus (RP) in particular.
- the active mass is preferably composed of red phosphorus, potassium nitrate and a binder.
- the dimensions of the flares and the coating thicknesses of the corresponding incendiary devices are chosen in such a way that the fog generated by the active mass both blocks the view in the visible as well as in the infrared wavelength range.
- the dimensions of the flares are freely selectable and adaptable to every caliber.
- the layer thicknesses of the incendiary coats containing the red phosphorus should preferably be between 400 ⁇ m and 800 ⁇ m.
- Plastic films are preferably used as the carrier material.
- the shell shell or shell shell preferably consists of plastic or a thin-walled aluminum sheet.
- the fragmentation charge is preferably arranged within a sieve tube made of a metallic material and surrounded by the flares, since the sieve tube is not to be dismantled.
- the sieve tube defines an even ignition of the flares.
- the wall thickness of the sieve tube is to be designed depending on the detonation load that the sieve tube must withstand.
- the smoke screen can be further optimized by the fact that the flares used have different coating thicknesses of the fire charge. This creates a homogeneous fog curtain.
- the thinner coated flares can burn almost completely in the air due to their low weight and the associated low sinking speed.
- the thicker flares coated with the incendiary device have a higher sinking rate and fall faster to the ground. These then create fog from the ground.
- Fig. 1 1 designates the active body of a smoke detonating grenade which can be fired from a karoka.
- the mist explosive grenade 1 comprises a preferably detachable grenade sleeve 2, ideally made of plastic or thin-walled aluminum, with a sieve tube 4, which extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis 3 of the mist explosive grenade 1 and in which a fragmentation charge 5 is located.
- the grenade sleeve 2 preferably has predetermined breaking points or the like (not shown in more detail).
- a programmable timer 6 is arranged on the rear side behind the decomposer charge 5.
- mist-producing pyrotechnic active mass 7 This consists of a multiplicity of film strips, each of which is coated with an incendiary agent that contains red phosphorus (flares) and preferably radially around the fragmentation charge 5, i.e. the sieve tube 4 (with holes) are arranged.
- the flares of the active mass 7 have different coating thicknesses of the incendiary charge, the coating thicknesses preferably being between 400 ⁇ m and 800 ⁇ m.
- the mode of operation of the smoke detonating grenade 1 For example, in order to avoid an enemy position 8 or make a change of position, the appropriate shooter first determines the distance to the enemy position 8 of the opponent from his own position 9 with the aid of a range finder (for example a fire control sight). The shooter then determines the distance at which the time detonator 6 of the smoke grenade 1 is to be detonated. This ignition point should usually be a few meters from the target and about 6-8 m above the ground. If the apelooka has a fire control computer, programming can take place via it. The timer 6 of the secondary explosive grenade 1 is then programmed accordingly, the straightening angle is determined and the weapon is aimed.
- a range finder for example a fire control sight
- the time detonator 6 After firing the smoke detonating grenade 1, the time detonator 6 disassembles or activates it according to the time setting of the time detonator 6, as a result of which the flares are ignited and distributed.
- the collapsible projectile sleeve 2 is broken up into small pieces, while the flares fall to the ground burning and form a fog curtain and an infrared cover.
- the dimensions of the flares are chosen in such a way that they generate a view block in the visible as well as in the infrared wavelength range.
- the flares preferably have different layer thicknesses, which create a homogeneous curtain (smoke screen 10). The thinner coated flares burn almost completely in the air and sink more slowly to the ground than the thicker coated ones Flares.
- the mist explosive grenade 1 can be fired or shot from a portable anti-tank weapon, in particular a recoil-free infantry weapon.
- the anti-tank weapon comprises a range finder for determining the distance to the target 8 and a processing and programming unit for programming the time fuse 6.
- the anti-tank weapon is portable.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine aus einer tragbaren Panzerabwehrwaffe, insbesondere einer rückstoßfreien Infanteriewaffe, abschießbare Nebelsprenggranate.The invention relates to a mist explosive grenade that can be fired from a portable anti-tank weapon, in particular a recoil-free infantry weapon.
Nebelsprenggranaten bestehen jeweils im Wesentlichen aus einer Granathülse mit einer sich in Richtung der Längsachse der Granate erstreckenden zentralen Zerlegerladung (Sprengladung) sowie einer die Zerlegerladung umschließenden, Nebel erzeugenden, pyrotechnischen Wirkmasse. In der Regel besitzen die bekannten Nebelgranaten vorderseitig einen Aufschlagzünder, der beim Auftreffen der Granate auf das Zielgebiet die Zerlegerladung zündet und die pyrotechnische Wirkmasse, die beispielsweise aus weißem Phosphor besteht, freisetzt (vgl. beispielsweise:
Es ist auch bekannt, dass Nebelgranaten mittels tragbarer Panzerabwehrwaffen, z.B. Panzerfäusten, verschießbar sind. So wird in dem am 02.05.2012 abgerufenen Internetartikel "FFV Carl Gustaf" (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFV_Carl_Gustaf) angegeben, dass für die reaktive Panzerbüchse FFV Carl Gustav auch Nebelgranaten zur Verfügung stehen. Allerdings ist aus dem veröffentlichten Stand der Technik der Aufbau einer derartigen Nebelgranate nicht bekannt.It is also known that smoke grenades are made using portable anti-tank weapons, e.g. Bazookas that can be fired. For example, the Internet article "FFV Carl Gustaf" (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFV_Carl_Gustaf) called up on May 2nd, 2012 states that smoke grenades are also available for the reactive armored rifle FFV Carl Gustav. However, the structure of such a smoke grenade is not known from the published prior art.
Problematisch bei der Verwendung von Nebelsprenggranaten, die aus tragbaren Panzerabwehrwaffen verschießbar sind, ist unter anderem, dass die zur Sichtsperre im sichtbaren, aber auch im infraroten Wellenlängenbereich benötigte Menge an Nebel erzeugender Wirkmasse relativ gering ist. Auch ist es mit derartigen Waffen in der Regel nicht möglich, mehrere Granaten gleichzeitig in das Zielgebiet zu verbringen, um ein größeres Zielgebiet zu vernebeln.One problem with the use of smoke grenades that can be fired from portable anti-tank weapons is, among other things, that the amount of fog-producing active mass required to block the view in the visible but also in the infrared wavelength range is relatively small. It is also generally not possible with such weapons to bring several grenades into the target area at the same time in order to fog up a larger target area.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Nebelsprenggranate anzugeben, die aus einer tragbaren Panzerabwehrwaffe verschießbar ist, und es ermöglicht, eine feindliche Stellung oder ein feindliches Fahrzeug möglichst schnell und großflächig einzunebeln.The invention has for its object to provide a smoke grenade that can be fired from a portable anti-tank weapon, and makes it possible to fog an enemy position or an enemy vehicle as quickly and over a large area.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung offenbaren die Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further, particularly advantageous configurations of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims.
Aus der
Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht hingegen im Wesentlichen auf dem Gedanken, die Nebelsprenggranate statt mit einem Aufschlagzünder mit einem Zeitzünder zu versehen. Dieser ist derart programmierbar, dass die Zerlegerladung in unmittelbarer Nähe der feindlichen Stellung, aber bevor die Granate den Boden erreicht hat, gezündet wird und die Nebel erzeugende Wirkmasse dort freigibt. Ein vorzugsweise in der Waffe integrierter Entfernungsmesser ermittelt die Distanz zum Ziel. Das Ziel wird beispielsweise manuell anvisiert und der Entfernungsmesser, z.B. ein Laser, bevorzugt manuell ausgelöst. Alternativen kennt der Fachmann. Dieser gemessene Wert wird dann in der Zünder-Elektronik verarbeitet und definiert die Laufzeit bis zur Zerlegung (Airburst). Durch eine Zündung der Nebel erzeugenden Masse, ca. 6-8 m über dem Boden, wird sehr schnell eine relativ ausgedehnte Nebelwand (Sichtsperre) zwischen dem Schützen und dem Ziel erzeugt. Die pyrotechnische Wirkmasse wird durch Flares gebildet, die aus einer Vielzahl von Folienstreifen bestehen.In contrast, the present invention is essentially based on the idea of providing the mist explosive grenade with a time fuse instead of an impact detonator. This is programmable in such a way that the fragmentation charge is ignited in the immediate vicinity of the enemy position, but before the grenade has reached the ground, and releases the mist-producing active mass there. A range finder, preferably integrated in the weapon, determines the distance to the target. For example, the target is sighted manually and the range finder, e.g. a laser, preferably triggered manually. The expert knows alternatives. This measured value is then processed in the igniter electronics and defines the runtime until dismantling (airburst). By igniting the fog producing mass, approx. 6-8 m above the ground, a relatively extensive fog wall (line of sight) is created very quickly between the shooter and the target. The pyrotechnic active mass is formed by flares, which consist of a large number of film strips.
Die pyrotechnische Wirkmasse ist bevorzugt zwischen der Zerlegerladung und einer Granathülse angeordnet. Die Folienstreifen sind jeweils mit einem Brandsatz beschichtet, der insbesondere Roten Phosphor (RP) enthält. Die Wirkmasse setzt sich bevorzugt aus Rotem Phosphor, Kaliumnitrat und einem Bindemittel zusammen. Die Abmessungen der Flares und die Beschichtungsstärken der entsprechenden Brandsätze sind dabei derart gewählt, dass der durch die Wirkmasse erzeugte Nebel sowohl eine Sichtsperre im sichtbaren als auch im infraroten Wellenlängenbereich bewirkt. Die Abmessungen der Flares sind frei wählbar und für jedes Kaliber anpassbar. Die Schichtdicken der den Roten Phosphor enthaltenden Brandsatzbeschichtungen sollten bevorzugt zwischen 400 µm und 800 µm liegen. Als Trägermaterial dienen bevorzugt Kunststofffolien. Die Granathülse bzw. Granathülle besteht vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff oder einem dünnwandigen Aluminiumblech.The pyrotechnic active mass is preferably arranged between the fragmentation charge and a shell shell. The film strips are each coated with an incendiary composition which contains red phosphorus (RP) in particular. The active mass is preferably composed of red phosphorus, potassium nitrate and a binder. The dimensions of the flares and the coating thicknesses of the corresponding incendiary devices are chosen in such a way that the fog generated by the active mass both blocks the view in the visible as well as in the infrared wavelength range. The dimensions of the flares are freely selectable and adaptable to every caliber. The layer thicknesses of the incendiary coats containing the red phosphorus should preferably be between 400 µm and 800 µm. Plastic films are preferably used as the carrier material. The shell shell or shell shell preferably consists of plastic or a thin-walled aluminum sheet.
Die Zerlegerladung ist vorzugsweise innerhalb eines von den Flares umgebenden Siebrohres aus einem metallischen Werkstoff angeordnet, da das Siebrohr nicht zerlegt werden soll. Das Siebrohr definiert eine gleichmäßige Anzündung der Flares. Die Wandstärke des Siebrohrs ist in Abhängigkeit der Detonationsbelastung auszulegen, der das Siebrohr standhalten muss.The fragmentation charge is preferably arranged within a sieve tube made of a metallic material and surrounded by the flares, since the sieve tube is not to be dismantled. The sieve tube defines an even ignition of the flares. The wall thickness of the sieve tube is to be designed depending on the detonation load that the sieve tube must withstand.
Die Nebelwand kann noch dadurch optimiert werden, dass die verwendeten Flares verschiedene Beschichtungsstärken des Brandsatzes aufweisen. Dadurch wird ein homogener Nebelvorhang erzeugt. Die dünner beschichteten Flares können aufgrund ihres geringen Gewichtes, und der damit verbundenen geringen Sinkgeschwindigkeit, fast vollständig in der Luft abbrennen. Hingegen weisen die dicker mit dem Brandsatz beschichteten Flares eine größere Sinkgeschwindigkeit auf und fallen schneller zu Boden. Diese erzeugen dann noch vom Boden aus Nebel.The smoke screen can be further optimized by the fact that the flares used have different coating thicknesses of the fire charge. This creates a homogeneous fog curtain. The thinner coated flares can burn almost completely in the air due to their low weight and the associated low sinking speed. In contrast, the thicker flares coated with the incendiary device have a higher sinking rate and fall faster to the ground. These then create fog from the ground.

Um beispielsweise eine feindliche Stellung 8 zu umgehen oder einen Stellungswechsel vorzunehmen, bestimmt der entsprechende Schütze von seiner eigenen Stellung 9 zunächst mit Hilfe eines Entfernungsmessers (beispielsweise eines Feuerleitvisieres) die Distanz zur feindlichen Stellung 8 des Gegners. Anschließend ermittelt der Schütze dann die Entfernung, bei welcher der Zeitzünder 6 der Nebelsprenggranate 1 gezündet werden soll. Dieser Zündzeitpunkt sollte in der Regel einige Meter vor dem Ziel und etwa 6-8 m über dem Boden liegen. Besitzt die Panzerfaust einen Feuerleitrechner, kann die Programmierung über diesen erfolgen. Anschließend wird der Zeitzünder 6 der Nebefsprenggranate 1 entsprechend programmiert, der Richtwinkel bestimmt und die Waffe gerichtet.In the following, with the help of
For example, in order to avoid an
Nach Abschuss der Nebelsprenggranate 1 erfolgt entsprechend der Zeiteinstellung des Zeitzünders 6 die Zerlegung bzw. Aktivierung durch den Zeitzünder 6, wodurch die Flares angezündet und verteilt werden. Die zerlegbare Geschosshülse 2 wird in kleine Stücke zerlegt, während die Flares brennend zu Boden fallen und einen Nebelvorhang sowie eine Infrarot-Deckung bilden. Dabei sind die Abmessungen der Flares derart gewählt, dass sie sowohl eine Sichtsperre im sichtbaren als auch im infraroten Wellenlängenbereich erzeugen. Bevorzugt verfügen die Flares über verschiedene Schichtstärken, die einen homogenen Vorhang (Nebelwand 10) entstehen lassen. Die dünner beschichteten Flares brennen fast vollständig in der Luft ab und sinken langsamer zu Boden als die dicker beschichteten Flares. Diese fallen aufgrund ihres damit verbundenen schwereren Eigengewichts schneller zu Boden, bilden dabei noch vor dem Boden den Nebel. Diese Kombination verschieden beschichteter Flares ergibt eine optimale Nebelwand 10 und Deckung, da die dünner beschichteten den oberen Bereich der Nebelwand 10 und die schwereren den unteren Bereich (nahe dem Boden) der Nebelwand 10 bilden. Nach bzw. mit Erzeugung der Nebelwolke 10 kann dann zum Beispiel der gewünschte Stellungswechsel erfolgen.After firing the smoke detonating grenade 1, the
Die Nebelsprenggranate 1 kann, wie bereits erwähnt, aus einer tragbaren Panzerabwehrwaffe, insbesondere einer rückstoßfreien Infanteriewaffe, verschossen bzw. abgeschossen werden. Die Panzerabwehrwaffe umfasst einen Entfernungsmesser zur Ermittlung der Distanz zum Ziel 8 sowie einer Verarbeitungs- und Programmiereinheit zur Programmierung des Zeitzünders 6. Die Panzerabwehrwaffe ist tragbar.As already mentioned, the mist explosive grenade 1 can be fired or shot from a portable anti-tank weapon, in particular a recoil-free infantry weapon. The anti-tank weapon comprises a range finder for determining the distance to the
