Definitions
- the invention relates to a tank device as characterized in the preamble of claim 1 and a method for their production.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a tank device of the type mentioned at the outset which, by simple means, ensures a higher protective effect, in particular against shaped charges, the security against multiple bombardment in particular being to be improved.
- FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of a tank device in partial cross section
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a
- Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment of
- Fig. 4 shows a third embodiment of
- FIG. 5 shows a section along the line V - V of FIG. 4
- Fig. 6 shows a fourth embodiment of
- Fig. 8 shows an embodiment of the in
- Fig. 7 block shown in cross section
- FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment variant corresponding to FIG. 8.
- an armor plate 1 consisting of armor steel or an armor plate element - also called a module - cavities 2 are arranged in a uniformly or unevenly distributed manner, which have at least one filling opening, but are preferably accessible from the outer surface.
- Hollow, body-shaped filling bodies 3 are advantageously arranged in any desired pouring position in the cavities 2.
- the fillers 3 are tubular as shown in FIGS. 2 and 1 and are preferably made of glass or ceramic.
- the filler bodies can also be hollow-spherical or spherical, combinations of different shapes and / or different sizes also being possible.
- the cavity 2 can then be filled or foamed with a plastic 8, preferably with a foam such as polyurethane.
- the fillers can also be connected, glued or cast with an organic or inorganic binder such as monoaluminophosphate binder or a curable plastic before or after filling, which after solidification causes the individual fillers to hold together.
- the individual bodies can also be connected to one another by sintering.
- the ratio of the volume V H of the cavity to the volume V F of the packing should be greater than 100, preferably greater than 250.
- Packing bodies with an average diameter D M of at least 3 mm and max. 15 mm result in the. desired volume ratios with an advantageous cavity size.
- the tube pieces shown in FIG. 2 have an outer diameter of 10 mm, a length of 10 mm and a bore of 8 mm.
- a part of the filling bodies having a cavity can advantageously be filled with an explosive 5, the percentage of the filling bodies 3 provided with explosives in a cavity 2 being at most 30%, but preferably only 1%.
- the fillers with explosives are then in the direction of the main threat
- the explosive used advantageously has a detonation speed of at least 6700 m / sec., Preferably of over 9000 m / sec.
- the explosive can also be arranged in the form of an explosive leaflet 7 on the described side of the cavity (see FIG. 1).
- Nitramines in particular nitroguanidine, cy ⁇ lotrimethylene trinitramine and cyclotetramethylene tetranitramine, have proven to be particularly suitable explosives.
- fillers with explosives or an explosive leaflet ensures that the shaped charge jet is damaged or the rearmost part is blown off by a counter-explosion, which increases the protective effect.
- the cavities can be arranged on the outside as well as on the inside of an armor plate or a plate element and covered with a plate.
- FIG. 3 show an embodiment variant in which the filling bodies 3 are hollow spheres 13 or are spherical or hollow spherical.
- the filling of each cavity 2 can have filling bodies 3 of the same or different sizes, same or different non-metallic materials.
- the hollow spheres preferably consist of ceramic - in particular corundum - but they can also be made of glass or another non-metallic material.
- the hollow Balls or fillers can be arranged in the cavities in a regularly layered orientation or position, or they are arranged in an irregular orientation with respect to one another in the cavity due to a bulk density with the greatest possible bulk density.
- the remaining spaces are filled with a curable two-component plastic such as a polyurethane foam or an epoxy.
- the outside diameter of the balls used is advantageously in a range between 3 and 15 mm.
- the. Cavity 2 is formed by an outer armor plate 10 and an inner armor plate 11, for example an armored vehicle, the preferably hollow spherical filler body 3 being filled in together with the plastic or in succession through an opening 12.
- tubular filler bodies 3 are arranged in an ordered position in the cavities 2.
- the filler 3 are preferably made of glass or ceramic.
- Other filler shapes and other materials that can be inserted in a regular orientation and have a cavity can also be used.
- tubular packing elements 3 are advantageously placed in several layers one above the other in such a way that they are arranged in each cavity 2 in such a way that their longitudinal axes are perpendicular to the main direction of fire 4.
- FIG. 4 are 3 tubes in all Layers arranged in the same direction and according to FIG. 6, the individual layers are alternately arranged crossing one another.
- the arrangement according to FIG. 4 on the right usually results in better use of space compared to the arrangement shown on the left in FIG. 4.
- each tube 3 is slightly smaller than the length or width of a cavity 2.
- the cavities are square in plan view, so that tubes with the same length can be used for both insertion options.
- the ratio of length to diameter of the tubular packing 3 should be in a range between 6: 1 to 12: 1, preferably 10: 1.
- the mean diameter D M of the tubes is larger than 7 mm, preferably larger than 8 mm.
- the ratio of the volume of a cavity V H to the pure material volume of all inserted fillers V F should be greater than 2.
- the armor device is as light as possible and is good Protective effect achieved.
- the gaps can then, as already described, with a two-component plastic, preferably with a foam, e.g. filled or foamed from polyurethane or glued or poured with an inorganic or organic binder before or after filling, which. after its solidification, the individual fillers are held together.
- a foam e.g. filled or foamed from polyurethane or glued or poured with an inorganic or organic binder before or after filling, which. after its solidification, the individual fillers are held together.
- the tubular packing 3 can be connected to one another by suitable temperature control, that is to say by heating to a certain temperature for a certain time by melting the material on the contact surfaces. This can be done in an appropriate temperature-resistant form before inserting the packing elements into the cavities, so that the packing elements can be inserted into the cavity as a package.
- the temperature control can be chosen so that the tubes collapse partially, whereby the volume fraction of the packing material can be varied. Such a change in the shape of the tubes increases the proportion of the packing material - preferably the proportion of glass - as a result of which the volume ratio can also drop below 2.
- Variant A Mix filler, first component and wetting agent and add second component shortly before filling into the cavity or into a mold.
- Variant B Mix both components and packing and then fill in.
- Variant C Fill in the packing, fill in polyurethane mixture under overpressure or gravity. This variant can also be used in the case of a position of the packing which is oriented to one another.
- solid, hardened blocks 20 are to be produced from packing elements 3 and plastic for insertion into the cavities or for placement on plates, these can be reinforced with a wire mesh or expanded metal 21.
- Such blocks are produced in a mold, the reinforcement 21 being fixed in the mold first and then the filler 3 and the plastic being filled in according to one of the methods A, B or C.
- the block 20 between the packing 3 - preferably hollow spheres 13 - has several layers of plate-shaped elements 22, which preferably consist of ceramic or glass.
- a further embodiment variant of a block 21 is shown in FIG. 9, the plate-shaped elements 22 being arranged in several layers on the side of the block opposite the direction of threat 4 and occupying approximately 1/3 of the height h of the block.
- the plate-shaped elements 22 are advantageously provided with a covering 23 made of plastic, such as polyurethane or an elastomer.
- Blocks of this type can also be used as moduli for armor having a combined protective effect against different types of projectiles, these moduli in particular forming protection against shaped charges.
- the cavities or the hardened blocks can be arranged both on the outside and on the inside of an armor plate or a plate element and covered with a plate.
- the optimization takes place with regard to strength, toughness, hardness, processability and / or by means of suitable reinforcement or cross-linking.
- the layers with the plate-shaped elements 22 are arranged by means of fillers 3, 13 with a diameter which is substantially larger than that of the other fillers.
- the difference in diameter of the packing used in the two different layers should preferably be in a ratio of 1: 3 to 1: 6.
