Description
OPTO-ELECTRONIC VIEWFINDER WITH MODULAR SHIELDING1
The invention relates to an opto-electronic sight with modular shielding and including means for detecting the shielding.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION A sight fitted to a military land vehicle, such as a tank, is conventionally provided with an opto-electronic device incorporating detection equipment such as for example an infrared camera, a video camera, a thermal camera, a laser telemeter, etc. Such an opto-electronic device is mounted on a two-axis gimbal platform that enables the device to be pointed in elevation and in bearing.
Most modern tanks have a control station for a tank commander who performs observation and control operations for the tank or its crew, and a firing station for a gunner, from which a weapon (gun, machine gun, etc.) of the tank is actuated. Each of these stations is provided with its own sight.
The sight of the control station is generally a panoramic sight situated on a top portion of the turret of the tank in order to provide the tank commander with as wide a field of view as possible. This sight is very exposed and needs to be protected against external agreement and more particularly against projectiles (impacts from bullets, shell shrapnel, debris, etc.) and for this purpose it is fitted with ballistic shielding.
The sight for the firing station is situated close to the weapon. The firing station sight has an angle of view that is limited and centered on the axis of the barrel of the weapon. This makes it possible to house the sight very close to the gun between shielded walls of the tank. The firing station sight therefore does not have its own shielding. 1 Translation of the title as established ex officio.
Such sights are technically very complex and present development and maintenance costs that are high.
In addition, although both sights may be identical from an opto-electronic point of view, they have mechanical structures that are different being adapted to their on-board weights, in particular concerning the motor drive and the bearing that enables the optoelectronic sight to be rotated. In particular, the bearing of the firing station sight is generally of smaller diameter in order to limit friction and facilitate active stabilization of the sight by monitoring the motor drive (in the sight for the tank commander station, the friction that results from using a large-diameter bearing is of little consequence for actively stabilizing the sight since it is compensated by the inertia coming from the weight of the shielding).
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
An object of the invention is to reduce development and maintenance costs of sights as fitted in particular to military land vehicles.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In order to achieve this object, the invention provides an opto-electronic sight with modular shielding, the sight comprising an opto-electronic device, a bearing having a rotary portion carrying the opto-electronic device, drive means for driving rotation of the rotary portion, control means adapted to control the drive means, and modular shielding adapted to be carried by the rotary portion of the bearing. According to the invention, the opto-electronic sight includes detector means for detecting the shielding on the rotary portion, the detector means being connected to the control means, which are arranged to adapt the control of the drive means as a function of the result of the detection.
In a given military land vehicle having one sight fitted with shielding for the control station and another sight that is not fitted to the shielding for the firing station, those sights are nowadays generally different sights and in particular they have different gimbal platforms and/or different drive means and/or different control means for controlling the drive means. In order to fit-out such a military vehicle, it is therefore necessary to develop two different sights. It is also necessary to store and make available both of those different types of sight in order to be able to perform maintenance operations.
The opto-electronic sight of the invention is provided with modular shielding that can be installed or not installed on the opto-electronic sight. The detector means of the opto-electronic sight serve to detect the presence or the absence of the shielding and to adapt the control of the drive means as a function of the presence or non-presence of shielding on the sight. It is thus possible to make use of two similar sights that have identical platforms, drive means, and control means, the sight for the control station being provided with shielding unlike the sight for the firing station. This thus reduces the cost of developing such sights since there is no longer any need to design two sights. This also reduces the cost of maintaining sights, not only because there is no longer any need to store two different types of sight, but also because it is now possible to take a sight from a station of a broken-down military vehicle and install it on another vehicle as a replacement for a failed sight of the same station or of the other station.
The invention also provides a military land vehicle having at least one weapon, a firing station from which the weapon is actuated, a control station from which operations such as control or observation operations are performed, the control station being provided with a first opto-electronic sight on which the modular shielding is installed, the firing station being provided with a second opto-electronic sight on which the modular shielding is not installed.
The invention can be better understood in the light of the following description of a particular non-limiting embodiment of the invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which: • Figure 1 is a diagrammatic perspective view of a military land vehicle of the invention; • Figure 2 is a perspective view of the second optoelectronic sight of the invention, said second sight not being equipped with modular shielding; • Figure 3 is a perspective view of the modular shielding and of its means for fastening to the sight; and • Figure 4 is a perspective view of the first optoelectronic sight of the invention, said first sight being fitted with the modular shielding.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
With reference to Figure 1, a military land vehicle, specifically a tank 1, has a turret 2 carrying a gun 3, a control station for receiving a tank commander, a firing station for receiving a gunner, and a station for driving the tank. The general structure of a tank is itself known .
The control station has a first opto-electronic sight 4a of the invention enabling the tank commander to observe and monitor the surroundings of the tank 1. The first opto-electronic sight 4a is a panoramic sight situated on the turret 2 in a zone that is not protected: it provides the tank commander with a field of vision over a bearing angle extending over 360°.
The firing station has a second opto-electronic sight 4b of the invention situated in the proximity of the gun 3 and from which the gun 3 is actuated. The second opto-electronic sight 4b is situated in a zone of the turret 2 that is protected and shielded in part. The turret 2 and thus the gun 3, in this example are thus servo-controlled in position to the second optoelectronic sight 4b, with the amplitude of the angular movement in bearing of the second opto-electronic sight 4b being restricted to the range -5° to +5°.
The first and second opto-electronic sights 4a and 4b are similar but they are configured identically given their different positions on the tank 1. The first optoelectronic sight 4a is fitted with modular shielding 7 for protecting it from external aggression and more particularly from projectiles (impacts from bullets, etc.), whereas the second opto-electronic sight 4b is not fitted with modular shielding since its position on the tank 1 does not require that.
Figure 2 shows the second sight 4b of the invention or more generally a sight 4 of the invention that does not have modular shielding 7. Each opto-electronic sight 4 has an opto-electronic device 8, a two-axis gimbal platform 9 for enabling the opto-electronic device 8 to be pointed about an elevation axis X and a bearing axis Y, a support 11 having first drive means received therein, a programmable electronics card 12, and second drive means .
In this example, the opto-electronic device 8 comprises in conventional manner a video camera, an infrared camera, and a laser telemeter that are not described in greater detail in the description below.
The first drive means comprise an electric motor 13 (shown diagrammatically in Figures 2 and 4) that is adapted to drive rotation of the opto-electronic device 8 about the bearing axis Y. The programmable electronics card 12 has control means 14 for controlling the electric motor 13. the second drive means are adapted to drive rotation of the opto-electronic device 8 about the elevation axis X, and since they are not directly involved with the invention, they are not mentioned again in this description.
The two-axis gimbal platform 9 has a bearing 15 on which the opto-electronic device 8 is mounted so as to be free to move in rotation about the bearing axis Y. The opto-electronic device 8 is carried by a rotary portion of the bearing 15.
The electric motor 13 is controlled by the control means 14 of the programmable electronics card 12 to drive rotation of the rotary portion of the bearing 15 and thus to point the opto-electronic device 8 along the required bearing angle. By way of example, the rotary portion has a toothed ring coaxial with the bearing 15 and a pinion constrained to rotate with the outlet shaft of the electric motor 13 and meshing with the toothed ring. It is also possible to use directly-coupled torque motors, i.e. without gearing and without a reduction ratio.
The control means 14 make use of a control program for controlling the electric motor 13 that is programmed on the programmable electronic card 12, said control program being arranged to implement a servo-control loop for the bearing angle of the opto-electronic sight 4.
With reference to Figures 3 and 4, the first optoelectronic sight 4a is provided with the modular shielding 7. The modular shielding 7 is balanced independently about the bearing axis Y so as to avoid giving rise to any unbalance torque that would be detrimental to stabilizing the sight. Mounting the modular shielding 7 on the first opto-electronic sight 4a therefore does not require the first opto-electronic sight 4a to be re-balanced. The modular shielding 7 has a first opening 18 of a shape complementary to the shapes of second openings 19 of the opto-electronic device 8.
The second openings 19 of the opto-electronic device 8 are situated facing camera sensors and they are protected by transparent protection elements through which the cameras acquire images over a bearing angle of large extent.
The modular shielding 7 is adapted to be carried by the rotary portion of the bearing 15. In this example, for the first opto-electronic sight 4a, the modular shielding 7 is mounted on the bearing 15 via fastener means 21 comprising a fastener bracket made up of three portions 22 that are screwed to the bearing 15. The modular shielding 7 is itself fastened to the fastener bracket. It should be observed that the fastener bracket extends over only a portion of the circumference of the bearing 15, thereby firstly making it easier to install and remove the modular shielding 7, and secondly reducing the weight of these opto-electronic sights when the modular shielding 7 is installed.
Thus, and as said above, the only difference between the first opto-electronic sight 4a and the second optoelectronic sight 4b is the presence of the modular shielding 7 on the first opto-electronic sight 4a.
The control means 14 are arranged to adapt the way in which they control the opto-electronic sight 4 as a function of whether the modular shielding 7 is or is not present. In order to detect the presence of the modular shielding 7, the programmable electronics card 12 of each sight 4 is provided with detector means 24, said detector means being connected to the control means 14 to communicate the result of the detection thereto.
The detector means 24 of the programmable electronics card 12 of a given sight 4 are arranged in this example to detect whether a connection cable connecting the sight to the remainder of the turret is a first connection cable 25 for connecting to a control station sight, such as the first opto-electronic sight 4a of the invention (said first connection cable 25 is thus visible in Figure 4), or a second connection cable 26 for connection to a sight of a firing station, such as the second opto-electronic sight 4b of the invention (said second connection cable 26 is thus visible in Figure 2).
The first connection cable 25 has a first connector 27 for connecting to a connector 28 situated on the support 11 of the control station sight, i.e. on the support 11 of the first opto-electronic sight 4a. The second connection cable 26 is provided with a second connector 29 for connecting to a connector 28 situated on the support 11 of the firing station sight, i.e. on the support 11 of the second opto-electronic sight 4b.
The first connection cable 25 is electrically arranged in such a manner that when the first connector 27 is connected to the connector 28 of the first optoelectronic sight 4a, two configuration pins of the connector 28 of the first sight 4a form an open circuit. In contrast, the second connection cable 26 is electrically arranged in such a manner that when the second connector 29 is connected to the connector 28 of the second opto-electronic sight 4b, the two configuration pins of the connector 28 of the second sight 4b are short-circuited.
The detector means 24 of the programmable electronics card 12 are connected to the connector 28 that is itself connected to the first connector 27 of the first connection cable 25 or to the second connector 29 of the second connection cable 26. The detector means 24 of a sight 4 detects whether the configuration pins of the connector 28 of the support 11 of the sight 4 are short-circuited or whether they form an open circuit, i.e. whether the connector connected to the connector 28 is the first connector 27 or the second connector 29.
The detector means of a sight 4 thus detect whether the sight 4 is the first opto-electronic sight 4a or the second opto-electronic sight 4b, and thus whether the modular shielding 7 is or is not installed on said sight.
The detector means 24 of the programmable electronics card 12 send the result of this detection to the control program of the control means 14.
In this example, control is adapted by using a set of parameters for setting the servo-control loop, comprising at least one setting parameter, a first series of values 30 when the modular shielding 7 is mounted, and a second series of values 31 when the modular shielding 7 is not mounted. Which one of the first series of values 30 and the second series of values 31 is used is determined by the control means 14 of the programmable electronics card 12 as a function of the result of detecting the presence of the shielding 7 as transmitted by the detector means 24.
The first and second series of values 30 and 31 of setting parameters are predetermined to take account of the difference in weight and inertia between a sight fitted with modular shielding 7 such as the first optoelectronic sight 4a and a sight that is not fitted with modular shielding 7, such as the second opto-electronic sight 4b, where the differences in weight and inertia are large given the relatively large weight of the modular shielding. The first and second series of values 30 and 31 of setting parameters also take account of friction in the rolling elements of the bearing, where the influence of such friction on the motor drive is greater for the sight that is not fitted with modular shielding.
It should thus be observed that the control program used for controlling the electric motor 13 of the first opto-electronic sight 4a and the program used for controlling the second opto-electronic sight 4b is a single program with parameters that can be set.
There follows a description in greater detail of the bearing 7 of the two-axis gimbal platform 9.
The bearing has rolling elements constituted by balls of diameter that is large relative to the inside diameter of the bearing.
The ratio between the inside diameter of the bearing 7 and the diameter of one of the balls in this example lies in the range 15 to 35, and is advantageously close to 25 .
The inside diameter of the bearing 7 is thus typically 10 inches (") or 25.4 centimeters (cm) for an outside diameter of 11.5" or of 29.21 cm, while the balls typically have a diameter of three-eighths of an inch, i.e. about 9.52 millimeters (mm). With such dimensions, the ratio between the inside diameter of the bearing 7 and the diameter of the balls is 25.7.
The relatively large diameter of the balls compared with the inside diameter of the bearing 7 makes the bearing 7 well adapted to the large weight and inertia of the first opto-electronic sight 4a of the invention that is fitted with the modular shielding 7. In particular, large inertia favors stabilizing the angular position in bearing, and makes it possible to compensate for the high levels of friction associated with the large-diameter balls of the bearing 7.
With the second opto-electronic sight 4b that does not have the modular shielding 7, friction has a greater detrimental influence on stabilization because of the reduction in the inertia of the second opto-electronic sight 4b resulting from the absence of the modular shielding 7. Nevertheless, it is found that this detrimental influence has little effect over the limited range over which the second opto-electronic sight 4b can move in bearing angle.
The invention is not limited to the particular embodiment described above, but on the contrary covers any variant coming within the ambit of the invention as defined by the claims.
Although detector means are described that detect an open circuit or a short circuit at the configuration pins of a connector of the sight, the invention naturally applies to detector means that are entirely different.
By way of example, it is possible to fit the sight with one or more sensors (proximity sensors, etc.) that detect the presence of the shielding directly, said sensors being connected to the control means. It is also possible to detect the presence of the shielding as a function of the forces that the motor drive needs to deliver in order to move the sight (e.g. measuring the current drawn) or to make provision for the control program of the sight to request a predefined action on the part of the operator for indicating whether the sight is positioned at the tank commander's station or at the gunner's station.
