Description

Linear accelerator for mechanical masses The invention relates to a linear accelerator for mechanical masses.

The area of application is of a weapon-related nature.

For example, guns and other firearms can use this principle without the propellants required for conventional projectiles (Cartridges) to use, which are known to serve the grenade the required To convey acceleration.

With the previously known firearms (artillery, machine guns, Grenade launcher etc.) the projectile consists of the grenade and the cartridge, which contains the propellant.

If this propellant is ignited by means of a suitable device, so such an explosion pressure is created inside the cartridge, which is the actual Grenade at homer speed through the Geochütz barrel (barrel) on a ballistic Corner promoted to the target.

This embodiment of a projectile is required by the Propellant charge (cartridge) very expensive and coarse in size.

The transport weight through the cartridge is also considerable.

Further is the cost of such a conventional bullet high.

The invention is based on the object of creating a gun which is used for firing grenades without the usual propellant (cartridge ) and thus significant advantages over the known weapon systems owns.

Inabes. the projectile is simplified in such a way that weight, Dimensions and costs would be able to be reduced significantly.

Furthermore, there are no problems with the procurement of raw materials ifr the propellant.

There are also no thermal loads on the gun barrel, as well the explosion caused by the propellant and the mouth fire.

This is achieved in that a gun barrel (barrel) made of magnetic Non-conductive material is made and a larger number spatially from each other has separately arranged coils for generating strong magnetic fields.

There are holes in the gun barrel in the spaces between the coils, through which the light from incandescent lamps falls on photocells.

Furthermore, the connections of each Spile are each connected to a switch, which is controlled by the photocells.

The entire system is fed by direct current.

A polarized permanent magnet made of steel or Perrit is used as the propellant used, which forms a unit with the grenade, or directly as a projectile can be trained.

The projectile is propelled according to the well-known law between Poland of the same name, there is a force in the sense of repulsion.

Between unlike poles there is a force effect in the sense of a Attraction.

The coils along the gun barrel are held in place by means of the Umsohalter always polarized in such a way that the coil to be passed through by the bottom is an attractive one Has an effect, while the coil already traversed by the bullet is a repulsive one Has an effect.

In order to control this process in the correct phase, the projectile itself is used used as measuring object, which depends on the switching time via photocells controls its own speed.

With each in-phase pass of the chosoe through a coil field, the projectile is accelerated further and finally has the when leaving Gun barrel the required initial speed.

In the following, with the help of an exemplary embodiment on the basis of the Drawing the invention will be explained in more detail.

The sectional drawing in FIG. 1 shows a linear accelerator as an exemplary embodiment for mechanical masses.

According to the invention there is a larger one on the gun barrel 4 Number of coils 2 and 3 The light bulbs required to illuminate the photocells 6 1 are arranged distributed along the gun barrel 4.

A photocell amplifier 7 controls the switch 8, which with -der Supply voltage 9 is in connection.

If, for example, coil 3 is now polarized by means of a changeover switch, a The polarized permanent magnet 5 is repelled and the coil 2 also becomes poled in such a way that the magnet 5 is attracted, the magnet 5 becomes moved in the direction of the arrow.

This process is repeated in the correct phase in each coil field, so that the desired high acceleration is achieved.

Instead of the mechanical switch 8, of course, occur electronically acting switch to achieve a largely inertial control eu.
