Abstract

An die Verbindung zwischen dem Treibspiegelheck und dem Treibspiegelmantel eines Treibspiegelgeschosses werden immer höhere Anforderungen bezüglich mechanischer Festigkeit und Gasdichte gestellt. Zur Verbesserung dieser Verbindung ist im Treibspiegelheckteil eine Umfangsnut vorgesehen, deren Seitenwände parallel zueinander sind und die in einem Winkel von 75° nach vorne gegenüber der Geschossachse geneigt sind. In diese Umfangsnut ragt der hintere Rand des Treibspiegelmantels hinein.The connection between the sabot tail and the sabot jacket of a sabot projectile is subject to ever increasing demands with regard to mechanical strength and gas density. To improve this connection, a circumferential groove is provided in the sabot rear part, the side walls of which are parallel to one another and which are inclined at an angle of 75 ° to the front relative to the projectile axis. The rear edge of the sabot jacket projects into this circumferential groove.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindung zwischen dem Treibspiegelmantel und dem Treibspiegelheck eines Treibspiegelgeschosses mit einer Umfangsnut am Treibspiegelheck, in welche ein Flansch des Treibspiegelmantels hineinragt, zur Bildung einer Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelmantel und Treibspiegelheck, die einerseits den mechanischen Kräften beim Abschuss widersteht und andererseits gasdicht ist.The invention relates to a connection between the sabot jacket and the sabot rear of a sabot projectile with a circumferential groove on the sabot rear, into which a flange of the sabot jacket protrudes, to form a connection between the sabot jacket and sabot rear, which on the one hand resists the mechanical forces during firing and on the other hand is gas-tight.

Bei einem bekannten Treibspiegelgeschoss dieser Art (siehe CH-PS 622833) ist die Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelmantel und Treibspiegelheck derart gestaltet, dass bei grossen mechanischen Kräften und bei grossem Gasdruck die Gefahr besteht, dass sich der Treibspiegelmantel beim Abschuss des Geschosses vorzeitig vom Treibspiegel ablöst oder dass die Verbindung dem grossen Gasdruck nicht gewachsen ist, d.h. nicht genügend gasdicht ist. Durch eine höhere Kadenz der Feuerwaffe ergeben sich bei der Zufuhr der Patronen zur Waffe grössere Beschleunigungs- und .Verzögerungskräfte, wodurch die Gefahr besteht, dass die Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelheck und Treibspiegelmantel schon vor dem Eintritt des Geschosses in die Waffe beschädigt wird. Die Patronenhülse ist an einer Umfangsnut des Geschosses, bzw. des Treibspiegelhecks befestigt.In a known sabot projectile of this type (see CH-PS 622833), the connection between the sabot jacket and the sabot tail is designed in such a way that with large mechanical forces and high gas pressure there is a risk that the sabot jacket may detach itself prematurely from the sabot when the projectile is fired or that the connection is not up to the high gas pressure, ie is not sufficiently gas-tight. A higher cadence of the firearm results in greater acceleration and deceleration forces when the cartridges are fed to the weapon, which means that there is a risk that the connection between the sabot rear and the sabot jacket will be damaged before the bullet enters the weapon. The cartridge case is attached to a circumferential groove of the projectile or the sabot rear.

Je tiefer diese Umfangsnut ist, um so grösser sind die zum Ausstossen des Geschosses aus der Patronenhülse erförderlichen Kräfte, somit ist auch der Gasdruck im Moment, in dem das Geschoss aus der Patronenhülse austritt, grösser. Daher werden auch an die gasdichte Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelmantel und Treibspiegelheck grössere Anforderungen gestellt.The deeper this circumferential groove, the greater the forces required to eject the projectile from the cartridge case, so that the gas pressure at the moment when the projectile emerges from the cartridge case is also greater. For this reason, greater demands are also made on the gas-tight connection between the sabot jacket and the sabot rear.

Insbesondere ist diese Verbindung gefährdet, solange das Geschoss nach der Zündung der Treibladung in der Patronenhülse die Freiflugstrecke zurücklegt und der Führungsring aussen von der Rohrwandung und den Zügen noch nicht abgestützt wird. Im Rohr selbst wird der Führungsring gegen das Treibspiegelheck gedrückt.In particular, this connection is at risk as long as that Projectile after the propellant charge is ignited in the cartridge case, the free flight distance is covered and the outside of the guide ring is not yet supported by the tube wall and the cables. In the tube itself, the guide ring is pressed against the sabot tail.

Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung wird die Aufgabe gelöst, eine Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelmantel und Treibspiegelheck zu schaffen, welche grossen mechanischen Kräften und grossem Gasdruck beim Abschuss des Treibspiegelgeschosses gewachsen ist.With the present invention, the object is achieved to create a connection between the sabot jacket and sabot rear end, which can withstand great mechanical forces and large gas pressure when the sabot projectile is fired.

Die erfindungsgemässe Verbindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Treibspiegelheck ausser der genannten Umfangsnut noch eine zweite Umfangsnut aufweist und dass der Treibspiegelmantel ausser dem genannten Flansch noch einen zweiten Flansch aufweist, wobei der eine Flansch zum Abdichten und der zweite Flansch zur Befestigung dient.The connection according to the invention is characterized in that the sabot tail has a second circumferential groove in addition to the said circumferential groove and that the sabot jacket also has a second flange in addition to the flange mentioned, one flange serving for sealing and the second flange for fastening.

Vorzugsweise sind die Seitenwände der einen Umfangsnut zueinander parallel und gegenüber der Geschossachse in einem Winkel von 75° nach vorne geneigt. Die Seitenwände der anderen Umfangsnut sind vorzugsweise gegenüber der Geschossachse in einem Winkel von 75° nach vorne, bzw. nach hinten geneigt.The side walls of the one circumferential groove are preferably parallel to one another and inclined at an angle of 75 ° to the front relative to the projectile axis. The side walls of the other circumferential groove are preferably inclined at an angle of 75 ° forwards or backwards relative to the projectile axis.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemässen Verbindung zwischen Treibpiegelmantel und Treibspiegelheck eines Treibspiegelgeschosses ist im folgenden anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung ausführlich beschrieben. Es zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 einen Längsschnitt durch ein Treibspiegelgeschoss und
  • Fig. 2 einen Teil des Treibspiegelhecks in vergrössertem Massstab.
An embodiment of the connection according to the invention between the sabot jacket and sabot rear of a sabot projectile is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawing. It shows:
  • Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a sabot projectile and
  • F ig. 2 a part of the sabot rear end on an enlarged scale.

Gemäss Fig. 1 besteht das erfindungsgemässe Treibspiegelgeschoss aus einem Geschosskörper 10, einem Treibspiegelheck 11 und einem Treibspiegelmantel 12. Dem Geschosskörper 10 ist eine ballistische Haube 13 aufgesetzt. Für den Geschosskörper 10 wird beispielsweise eine Hartmetall- oder eine Wolframlegierung verwendet. Das Treibspiegelheck 11 ist beispielweise aus Leichtmetall und der Treibspiegelmantel 12 ist z.B. aus Kunststoff hergestellt. Der Treibspiegelmantel 12 besteht üblicherweise aus drei Segmenten, welche über Sollbruchstellen 14 miteinander verbunden sind. In der Zeichnung Fig. 1 ist nur eine Sollbruchstelle 14 sichtbar. Der Treibspiegelmantel 12 weist ferner Aussparungen 15 sowie ein Führungsband 16 auf. Der Geschosskörper 10 besitzt zwei Umfangsnuten 17, die zur Befestigung des Treibspiegelhecks 11 dienen. Das Treibspiegelheck 11 ist mit sechs Zungen 18 versehen, welche mit Nocken 25 in die Umfangsnuten 17 des Geschosskörpers hineinragen.1, the sabot projectile according to the invention consists of a projectile body 10, a sabot rear 11 and a sabot jacket 12. A ballistic hood 13 is placed on the projectile body 10. A hard metal or a tungsten alloy is used for the projectile body 10, for example. The sabot tail 11 is made of light metal, for example, and the sabot jacket 12 is e.g. made of plastic. The sabot jacket 12 usually consists of three segments which are connected to one another via predetermined breaking points 14. In the drawing Fig. 1 only a predetermined breaking point 14 is visible. The sabot jacket 12 also has cutouts 15 and a guide band 16. The projectile body 10 has two circumferential grooves 17, which are used to fasten the sabot rear 11. The sabot tail 11 is provided with six tongues 18 which protrude with cams 25 into the circumferential grooves 17 of the projectile body.

Der bisher beschriebene Aufbau des Treibspiegelgeschosses ist bekannt. Gegenstand der Erfindung ist die Verbindung zwischen dem Treibspiegelmantel 12 und dem Treibspiegelheck 11.The structure of the sabot projectile described so far is known. The invention relates to the connection between the sabot jacket 12 and the sabot rear end 11.

Die Anforderungen an diese Verbindung werden infolge grösserer Kadenz immer höher. Durch einen höheren Ausziehwiderstand wird, wie erwähnt, der Gasdruck beim Austritt des Geschosses aus der Patronenhülse grösser. Bei grösserer Zufuhrgeschwindigkeit der Patronen zur Feuerwaffe wird auch die mechanische Beanspruchung der Verbindung zwischen Treibspiegelmantel 12 und Treibspiegelheck 11 grösser. Durch entsprechende Ausbildung dieser Verbindung soll verhindert werden, dass Treibgase zwischen Treibspiegelmantel 12 und Treibspiegelheck 11 eindringen.The demands on this connection are increasing due to the higher cadence. A higher pull-out resistance, as mentioned, increases the gas pressure when the projectile emerges from the cartridge case. With a higher feed speed of the cartridges to the firearm, the mechanical stress on the connection between the sabot jacket 12 and the sabot rear 11 also increases. Appropriate design of this connection is intended to prevent propellant gases from penetrating between the sabot jacket 12 and the sabot rear 11.

Das Treibspiegelheck 11 weist zu diesem Zweck eine erste Umfangsnute 19 auf, die durch zwei zueinander parallele Seitenwände 21 und 22 gebildet wird. Diese Seitenwände 21 und 22 sind in einem Winkel von 75° gegenüber der Geschossachse nach vorne geneigt. Ferner ist eine zweite Umfangsnut 26 vorhanden, welche durch zwei Seitenwände 24 und 28 gebildet wird, wobei die eine Seitenwand 24 in einem Winkel von 75° nach hinten und die andere Seitenwand 28 um denselben Winkel von 75° nach vorne geneigt ist.For this purpose, the sabot rear end 11 has a first circumferential groove 19 which is formed by two side walls 21 and 22 which are parallel to one another. These side walls 21 and 22 are inclined forward at an angle of 75 ° with respect to the projectile axis. There is also a second circumferential groove 26 which is formed by two side walls 24 and 28, one side wall 24 being inclined rearward at an angle of 75 ° and the other side wall 28 being inclined forward by the same angle of 75 °.

Durch die erste Umfangsnut 19 wird eine zuverlässige, gasdichte Verbindung erreicht und durch die zweite Umfangsnut wird eine zuverlässige, mechanischen Kräften widerstehende Verbindung erreicht.A reliable, gas-tight connection is achieved through the first circumferential groove 19, and a reliable connection that withstands mechanical forces is achieved through the second circumferential groove.

In die erste Umfangsnut 19 ragt ein entsprechender Flansch 20 des Treibspiegelmantels 12 und in die zweite Umfangsmut 26 ragt ein entsprechender zweiter Flansch 27 des Treibspiegelmantels 12 hinein.A corresponding flange 20 of the sabot jacket 12 projects into the first circumferential groove 19 and a corresponding second flange 27 of the sabot jacket 12 projects into the second circumferential groove 26.

Die Seitenwände der Umfangsnuten 19 und 26 müssen nicht geneigt sein. Sie können auch senkrecht zur Geschossachse stehen. Es sind keilförmige oder schwalbenschwanzförmige Umfangsnuten denkbar.The side walls of the circumferential grooves 19 and 26 do not have to be inclined. They can also be perpendicular to the floor axis. Wedge-shaped or dovetail-shaped circumferential grooves are conceivable.
