BG110486A - ARMOR ing - Google Patents

Abstract

The armor is aimed at defense of objects from the impact of cumulative ammunitions, which are completed by piezoelectric detonators and discharged by light reactive weapons. The armor includes bearing elements (1) to which oval (2) and screw-shaped (3) bodies are attached. The screw-shaped (3) bodies are with cut openings. All the peripheries of the oval (2) and of the screw-shaped bodies have ground cutting edges. The bearing elements (1) can be two or more and they are fixed at a distance one behind the other, thus making possible the destroying of ammunitions in a wide range of the attack angle.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to armor of the passive type, designed to protect objects from the effects of cumulative ammunition, complete with piezoelectric fuses and fired by lightweight reactive weapons.

PROPERTIES OF THE TECHNIQUE

A lightweight, secure electronic screen [1] is known, consisting of several electrode arrays mounted one behind the other to a frame. Each electrode grid is fixedly fixed to the frame on one side only, the opposite one being connected to the frame by means of special elastic tubes. The other sides of the electrode grid are free.

When a grenade hits the security screen, a special electronic device directs modulated electronic impulses, resulting in the grenade being destroyed.

The main disadvantage of the screen is the low efficiency in terms of neutralizing the ammunition and the lack of reliable protection.

Another disadvantage of this protective screen is that the directed modulated impulses are not sufficient to neutralize all the striking munitions factors.

Another disadvantage of this security screen is that it is disposable.

Bumper [2] is known, which is a security grille of special configuration made of solid material, the space between the elements of the grille being filled with insulating material. The grid is serrated on the attack side and has a conductive cathode on the opposite side. All electrodes are connected to an electronic device that is programmed to neutralize the electrical energy generated by the piezoelectric ammunition generator upon impact on the grid.

The main disadvantage of this armor is that its defense system is active, with low reliability and low efficiency in neutralizing ammunition.

Another disadvantage is that it is ineffective in the damage caused by the kinetic action of grenades.

Another disadvantage of the bumper is that it can absorb a small number of hits per unit area.

Another drawback is its weight, which makes it difficult to protect mobile objects.

TECHNICAL NATURE

It is an object of the invention to provide lightweight armor and increased effectiveness against cumulative ammunition fired by lightweight reactive weapons, which also makes it applicable to the protection of mobile objects.

The task is solved by armor comprising horizontal and / or vertical supporting elements. Irregularly shaped plates are mounted on the horizontal and / or vertical supporting elements.

The plates are made of materials with high strength characteristics.

The number of plates and the distance between them vary widely and depend on the characteristics of the object being protected and the ammunition.

The plates are made in geometric form in two variants.

In the first embodiment / B 1 / the plates are formed as oval bodies.

In the second embodiment / B2 / the plates are shaped like screw bodies with cut holes.

All plate peripherals of both versions have sharpened cutting edges.

The plates of the two variants (B 1) and (B2) can be mounted on two or more supporting elements, fixed to each other at a distance, which provides destruction of the ammunition over a wide range of angle of attack.

The main advantage of the armor is that the structure reduces the likelihood of explosion of ammunition upon contact with it.

Another advantage of the design is the reliable disruption of the integrity of the ammunition.

Moreover, the armor has the advantage that the explosion of ammunition is neutralized over a wide range of angles of attack.

Another advantage is the reduced weight due to the use of special plate designs.

EXAMPLES FOR IMPLEMENTATION The invention is illustrated by the following exemplary embodiments: In the first embodiment B1, the armor consists of horizontal and / or vertical supporting elements 1, on which plates shaped like oval bodies 2 are mounted. In the second embodiment B2, the bumper comprises horizontal and / or vertical supporting elements 1 on which plates are formed shaped like screw bodies 3 with cut holes. All plate peripherals of both versions have sharpened cutting edges. The plates of the two variants B1 and B2 can be mounted on two or more supporting elements 1 fixed to each other, which provides destruction of the ammunition over a wide range of angle of attack. APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION The invention is as follows: The cumulative ammunition falling on the front surface of the carrier elements 1 in variant B1 comes into contact with the sharpened cutting edges of the oval bodies of the plates 2, whereby the surface of the munition is destroyed and its explosion is neutralized. In addition, when the ammunition hits the sharp edges of the screw-like bodies of the plates 3 in variant B2, it is neutralized and destroyed, and the parts of the ammunition after its destruction are forced to move on the screw-shaped plates and significantly alter their trajectory, falling tangentially or tangentially. they do not contact him at all. When plates 2 and 3 of the two variants B1 and B2 are mounted on two or more supporting elements 1, destruction of the ammunition over a wide range of the angle of attack is ensured. REFERENCES: 1.
