Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the ammunition of cartridge ammunition from a trough magazine into a turret magazine that can be pivoted about the lateral direction axis of an armored vehicle that has a weapon barrel that can be pivoted about a cradle axis (2).
  • the invention enables the weapon barrel to be used as a space-saving means of transport for ammunitioning the ammunition from the trough into the turret magazine of an armored vehicle.
  • no additional drives and power connections are necessary for the device for re-ammunition.
  • the loading space of the weapon barrel is also a transport space for the ammunition during the ammunition and that the barrel weapon can be automatically loaded directly from the trough magazine, as is the case with the turret magazine, means that the barrel weapon is ready to fire even during the ammunition.
  • the direct and, moreover, space-saving loading from the tub magazine is made possible by the fact that the cartridge ammunition of the tub magazine or the entire tub magazine, which is in a removal position, is arranged so obliquely within the vehicle tub that the cartridge ammunition with the extended barrel core axis of the um is removed for removal the elevation angle a forms a straight line with respect to the horizontal raised gun barrel and the cartridge ammunition can be transported directly into the cargo space of the gun barrel with the aid of a spacer bridging the barrel return path and by means of an attachment device fixed to the tub magazine.
  • the spacers can be swiveled away from the bridge position for the tube return and are arranged on the turret and on the tub magazine, the tubular spacer arranged on the tub magazine being partially shell-shaped on the upper side and adapted to the barrel return space of the gun barrel in the swung-down position, which shortens the distance between the tub magazine and the gun barrel the required tower space is reduced in a further advantageous manner.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the arrangement of a weapon barrel 1 which is known per se and which can be pivoted in the vertical direction about a cradle axis 2 and is arranged within a turret which can be rotated about the lateral direction axis 21 an armored vehicle also not shown connected.
  • a turret housing 24 Within the turret housing 24 there are multiple magazine troughs 10 (FIG. 2) behind the weapon barrel 1, in which cartridge ammunition 3 is arranged horizontally and parallel to the lateral directional position of the weapon barrel 1.
  • Such a tower magazine 10 is known for example from DE-C-13 01 742.
  • a spacer 12 which can be swung out sideways and is designed as a barrel, in order to ensure that the ammunition 3 is guided for the loading process also in the area of the barrel return path s of the barrel 1, during the barrel return.
  • the cartridge ammunition 3 is conveyed on the extended barrel core axis 6 into the cargo space 15 of the weapon barrel 1 by means of a known attachment device 17, which can be, for example, a chain attachment.
  • the attachment device 17 is furthermore able, when the breech part 25 of the weapon barrel 1 is open, to pull a cartridge ammunition 3 located in the cargo space 15 into the receiving position 9 of the turret magazine 10 arranged on both sides of the receiving position 9 (FIG. 2).
  • a trough magazine 4 is arranged inside the vehicle trough 23, which, as shown in FIG. 2, consists, for example, of an endless conveyor chain 28 in which further ammunition 3 with cartridges for refilling the turret magazines 10 are stored.
  • the weapon barrel 1 which can be pivoted about the cradle axis 2, is a means of transport for the ammunition of the cartridge ammunition 3 from the tub magazine 4 into the turret magazine 10
  • the cartridge ammunition 3 of the tub magazine 4 located in the removal position 5 or the entire tub magazine 4 is so inclined arranged within the vehicle trough 23 that for the removal the cartridge ammunition 3 with the extended tubular core axis 6 of the by the height angle a with respect to the Hori zontal 19 raised gun barrel 1 forms a straight line 7.
  • the ammunition removal position 5 of the tub magazine 4 lies on the vehicle's longitudinal axis 8, the tub magazine 4 containing its own attachment device 16, which is fastened to the rear end of the magazine, for removing the ammunition 3 which is aimed at the weapon barrel 1 with the ammunition tip 20.
  • either the tub magazine shown is arranged inclined by the angle a '(not shown) or a rotary drive, not shown, for pivoting the cartridge ammunition 3 from a horizontal position 33 into the removal position 5 is arranged on the tub magazine 4.
  • the tub magazine 4 also contains a swing-out tubular spacer 11 for bridging the tube return path s, which, in contrast to the spacer 12 of the tower magazine 10 arranged in a tower, is not rotatable about the lateral direction axis 21, but is arranged in a tub-fixed manner at the transition to the space of the tower basket 18 and to ensure the tube return is pivotable downwards.
  • the longitudinal axis of the spacer 11 forms during the feeding of the cartridge ammunition 3 into the cargo space 15 of the weapon barrel 1 and during the removal of the cartridge ammunition 3 from the cargo space 15 with the axis of a cartridge ammunition 3 which is in the removal position 5 and which is increased by the angle a Pipe core axis 6 of the gun barrel 1 is a straight line.
  • the spacer 11 In order to shorten the distance between the retracted weapon barrel 1 and the trough magazine 4 and thereby also reduce the space requirement of the turret cage 18, the spacer 11 has a bowl-shaped design on the upper side and, in the position 14 pivoted down in the direction of the arrow 27, is available for the return of the weapon barrel 1 standing room 13 adapted.
  • the spacer 11 is designed in such a way that a pipe increase beyond the angle a by the angle ⁇ is possible.
  • the cartridge ammunition 3 is transported in the reverse order.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates the arrangement of a tub magazine 4 in the vehicle tub 23 and on the tower side on both sides of the receiving position 9 two tower magazines 10 arranged one above the other.
  • the ammunition 3 leaves the conveyor chain 28 under the dead weight in the arrow direction 29 to take the removal position 5 obliquely downwards.
  • Ammunition 3 can optionally be removed from the conveyor chain 28 of the tub magazine 4 on the left or right.
  • the position holder 30 is arranged so as to be displaceable in the plane 26 in a manner not shown in order to maintain the removal position 5, so that from an upper supply position 5 'the cartridge ammunition 3 is also optionally left under its own weight or can be fed to the tub magazine 4 on the right in the arrow direction 31 directed obliquely downward.
  • the holder 32 of the receiving position 9 for the tower magazine 10 for the removal of the ammunition 3 from the lower tower magazines 10 is arranged to be movable downwards in the plane 26 for taking the removal position 9 ', the holder 32 for operating the upper tower magazines 10 in each case in the plane 26 is displaceably arranged up to the upper receiving or removal position.
  • the tower magazines 10 each contain, on the outer sides, refillable insertion flaps 34 for refilling the ammunition with cartridges.

Abstract

Afin de réduire l'espace requis à l'intérieur du corps rotatif (24) de la tourelle d'un char de combat pour transférer des cartouches de munition (3) d'un chargeur du bâti (4) au chargeur (10) de la tourelle, on utilise comme transporteur un canon (1) pivotable autour d'un axe (2) du berceau. Pour transporter les cartouches de munition jusqu'à l'espace de chargement (15) du canon, les munitions (3) se trouvant dans le chargeur (4) du bâti (23) du char en position de prélèvement (5) sont inclinées de telle sorte qu'elles forment une droite (7) avec l'axe (6) réduit de l'âme du canon (1) élevé de l'angle alpha par rapport à l'horizontale. Pour guider les cartouches de munition dans la zone du trajet de recul s du canon, des pièces d'écartement (11, 12) pivotables sont agencées dans le chargeur (4) du bâti et dans le chargeur (10) de la tourelle. Le canon (1) sert de transporteur d'une part pour remplir le chargeur (10) de la tourelle avec des cartouches de munition tirées du magasin de munitions du chargeur (4) du bâti et d'autre part pour remplir le chargeur (4) du bâti, dans le sens inverse de transport. Pour le transport longitudinal des cartouches de munition dans l'espace de chargement (15) du canon (1), ou pour les en sortir, des dispositifs de mise en place (16, 17) sont agencés sur le chargeur (10) de la tourelle et sur le chargeur (4) du bâti.
