Definitions
- the invention relates to a mobile carriage with wheels for high and low-profile firearms, in particular for grenade launchers with a weapon barrel, optionally with a breech and a return and recovery device and with a base plate which supports directly on the ground and on which spars are provided for stabilization. two of which point apart as seen in the firing direction, as well as with a height and side straightening device for the weapon barrel, which is adjustable via separately mounted axes of rotation.
- the weapon barrel is usually supported by a ball joint in a base plate that comes to rest directly on the ground.
- This base plate can in turn be connected for transport with a wheel axle having two wheels.
- This wheel axle has two spindle drives in the middle, specifically for the lateral and vertical arrangement of the tube. This straightening device attacks in the front area of the weapon barrel.
- a disadvantage is the relatively difficult connection from the axis to the base plate when the grenade launcher is to be transported. Furthermore, it is difficult to precisely align the gun barrel when it is supported by a ball, since the gun barrel is too free to move, which can cause canting and the like.
- a device of the type mentioned at the outset can be found, for example, in the depictions in the "Weapons Technical Paperback", Rheinmetall, 5th corrected edition, 1980, in particular Figure 819.
- a mobile carriage which has a receptacle for the weapon barrel and possibly a forward and return device far above the ground, a height and lateral directional drive being provided separately.
- the gun barrel is not supported with its end by a ball on a base plate, but the end of the gun barrel, which may have the breech, is located far above the supporting surface and the axis of the gun barrel cuts the ground in a field which is given by the carriage and the bars attached to it.
- At least two of these spars generally do not point in the weft direction, but against this direction.
- the spars have bottom plates or spurs at their ends, which serve to support the recoil forces and dig into the ground in the course of several shots.
- the carriage it is necessary that solid components are used, since the recoil forces are only introduced into the spars via relatively long levers.
- the space required for such a carriage is particularly high, since the spars protrude from the carriage in one direction, whereas the weapon barrel protrudes in the other direction.
- the gun barrel can be pivoted over the collapsible bars in order to make transportation easier. So that a correspondingly complicated side alignment axis must be provided again.
- a device similar to the above-mentioned carriage can also be found in, for example, FR-A 799 854, which, however, has no wheels for transport on similarly arranged spars.
- the support is again provided by a base plate resting on the ground, which carries the side straightening device.
- a bearing of the axis of rotation for the height adjustment is arranged separately from the axis of rotation for the side adjustment and a tilting moment is thus introduced into the bearing for the side adjustment.
- the present invention has set itself the goal of providing a mobile carriage which can be used for both flat and high-bore firearms e.g. Grenade launcher is suitable, in which the end of the gun barrel facing away from the muzzle is only a short distance from the ground, allows the gun barrel to be aimed precisely, and avoids the disadvantages mentioned above.
- Grenade launcher is suitable, in which the end of the gun barrel facing away from the muzzle is only a short distance from the ground, allows the gun barrel to be aimed precisely, and avoids the disadvantages mentioned above.
- the carriage according to the invention is characterized in that the axis of rotation for the leveling of the weapon barrel is arranged together with the leveling device so that it can be rotated about the axis of rotation of the side leveling device, that the side leveling axis lies in front of the leveling level axis and at the same time seen in the weft direction serves as the axis of rotation for the spars, and that the effective surface of the base plate intersects the axis of the weapon barrel in each firing position. Due to the two separately mounted, positively guided, mutually normal axes of rotation, the side straightening is completely independent of the height straightening, so that an exact straightening of the tube is possible.
- the lateral direction axis for the weapon barrel is arranged in front of the height direction axis of the weapon barrel is.
- the lateral directional axis for the weapon barrel also serves as an axis of rotation for the spars, so that a particularly direct transmission of the forces from the weapon barrel, or the return and recovery device can be ensured. This also avoids unnecessary leverage in the transmission of forces, so that the moments that occur can be kept particularly low.
- the axis of the weapon barrel intersects the effective surface of the base plate which is supported directly on the ground in every firing position, whereby a particularly compact design is provided with two spars which support on the ground and point in the firing direction, which also allows the Bring the end of the gun barrel as close as possible to the supporting floor.
- Hiebei can either be loaded via the muzzle, as is well known with grenade launchers, or according to the chamber system, as described for example in European patent application 66 161.
- a drive module e.g. Motor vehicle, directly or indirectly linkable, as it corresponds to a preferred embodiment, will also be. unnecessarily high moments and forces when transporting the device, both on the drive module and on the carriage avoided.
- the spars preferably carry at their ends, in particular height-adjustable wheels for long-distance transport, so that there is a particularly stable carriage for transport, which can be changed by changing the height of the wheels, e.g. by folding it up, it can also be easily brought into a stable shooting position.
- the spars in particular for transporting the carriage at its end regions by a crossbar or the like.
- connectable which is preferably articulated on a spar
- the spars can be easily connected to each other in a stable manner, which is particularly advantageous both for transport and possibly for the carriage in the firing position. If the crossbar is articulated on the spar, a particularly simple and labor-intensive connection or solution thereof can be achieved.
- the mount can be moved from the transport position into the firing position and vice versa by a man. It is provided that the eccentrically arranged spindle is set down against the ground, and a wheel of a spar is relieved by further actuation of the spindle, whereupon it can be pivoted easily and without touching the ground from its transport position, the pivoting movement via the lever action of the spar thus can be executed long until the gun barrel is also aligned. Then the spindle is relieved and the crossbeam can be folded onto a spar.
- the spars preferably carry, preferably in the region of their articulation, the base plate (s), in particular spurs, which support directly on the subsurface, as a result of which a particularly simple and low-stress structural design of the mount is ensured.
- FIG. 1 shows a carriage in plan view and FIG. 2 in side view. Both in Fig. 1 and in Fig. 2, the carriage is shown in the firing position or dashed lines in the transport position.
- the mobile carriage has a weapon barrel 1 which is mounted in the lateral direction axis 4 via a joint piece 2 and the height direction axis 3.
- the spars 5 are also articulated on the lateral direction axis.
- the spars carry a two-part base plate 6 in the region of their articulation. At their free end, the spars carry spindles 7, with which a horizontal alignment of the device is made possible, at the same time avoiding a two-point support.
- the spars also each carry a bearing block 8 in which axles for the wheels 9 for long-distance transport are attached via steering knuckles 10. These wheels can be raised and lowered via axles, not shown, which are mounted in the bearing block.
- the side straightening device 11 is formed by the two arms 12, 13, which act on the spar on the one hand and the height straightening device on the other hand and can be changed in position via a spindle drive 14.
- the height adjustment device 15, as can be clearly seen in particular from FIG. 2, has a spindle drive 16 which engages on the weapon barrel via the arms 17, 18 or on the axis 19 via the carrier 19 for leveling the barrel.
- a crossbeam 20 is articulated on one of the two spars 5 and carries at its end a spindle 21 which can be lowered against the ground. In the position shown in dashed lines, the crossbar is connected via tabs 22, which are provided on the spar or on the crossbar, and a bolt 23. This creates a compact transport unit. 2, a coupling rod 24 for a motor vehicle is articulated on the lateral directional axis 4.
- a return and retrieval device 25 as can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. 1, is provided, it is mounted on the vertical direction axis.
- the device If the device is now to be moved from the transport position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1 to the firing position, it is only necessary to pull the bolt 23 and to lower the spindle 21 until the wheel 9 of the spar 5 is relieved.
- the handlebar and wheel can then be easily extended since the wheel no longer touches the ground. This pivoting movement is carried out until the weapon barrel 1 is also extended so that the other spar can remain stationary.
- the wheels 9 are then folded up, the spindles 7 being lowered for the time being.
- the spindles 7, which are each arranged at the end of the spars, allow the mount to be aligned horizontally.
- the spars as can clearly be seen, point apart in the weft direction.
- the side direction axis 4 is arranged in front of the height direction axis 3, by actuating the height direction device, the weapon barrel can be pivoted, although, as can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. 2, the axis intersects the effective surface of the base plate supporting directly on the ground .
- the effective area of the floor slab is to be understood as that area which cooperates directly with the floor, or an imaginary plane connecting it, which area can also be divided, curved or the like several times.
- the side leveling device is actuated so that the tube is precisely aligned, after which the gun is aligned and in the firing position.
