Abstract

Für eine Projektilladung mit zwei Wirkungsmechanismen, nämlich Projektilbildung gegen stark gepanzerte Ziele oder Splitterbildung gegen schwach gepanzerte Ziele, wird ein Zünder vorgeschlagen, der bei der Splitterbildung gewährleistet, daß die beiden notwendigen, räumlich voneinander getrennten Verstärkungsladungen (16, 17) ohne Zeitverzug gezündet werden.For a projectile charge with two mechanisms of action, namely projectile formation against heavily armored targets or splinter formation against weakly armored targets, a detonator is proposed which ensures that the two necessary, spatially separated reinforcing charges (16, 17) are detonated without delay in the formation of splinters.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Zünder für eine projektilbildende Ladung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to an igniter for a projectile-forming charge according to the preamble of claim 1.

Für eine Ladung mit der entweder ein panzerbrechendes Projektil oder mehrere Splitter erzeugbar sind benötigt für die Projektilbildung einen zentralen bzw. axialen Zündort und für die Splitterbildung zwei einan­der diametral gegenüberliegende Zündorte im Bereich des Umfanges der Sprengladung.For a charge with which either an armor-piercing projectile or several fragments can be generated, a central or axial ignition location is required for projectile formation and two ignition locations diametrically opposite one another in the area of the circumference of the explosive charge for the splinter formation.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht daher darin, einen einfachen Zünder für eine projektil- oder splitterbildende bzw. stachelbildende Ladung vorzuschlagen, der gewährleistet, daß die beiden, für die Splitterbildung notwendigen Zündorte, im Bereich des Umfanges der Ladung gleichzeitig gezündet werden.
Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe gemäß den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruches 1.
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.
The object of the invention is therefore to propose a simple detonator for a projectile or splinter-forming or spike-forming charge, which ensures that the two ignition sites required for splintering are ignited simultaneously in the area of the charge.
The invention solves this problem according to the characterizing features of claim 1.
Advantageous further developments can be found in the subclaims.

Nach der Erfindung ist im Mikrosekundenbereich die Auswahl der Zündorte - also nahezu verzugslos - erreichbar. Daher eignet sich der erfindungs­gemäße Zünder für sämtliche Munitionen, bei denen eine Wechselwirkung vorgesehen ist und bei denen innerhalb kürzester Zeit die Auswahl für die spezielle Munitionswirkung getroffen sein muß. Eine derartige Munitions­art ist eine sensorgezündete Projektilladung, die in der Regel keine Vorkenntnis über die Art des zu bekämpfenden Zieles hat und nach Auffassen des Zieles die Bekämpfungsart innerhalb Mikrosekunden entschieden sein muß.According to the invention, the selection of the ignition locations can be achieved in the microsecond range, that is to say almost without delay. The detonator according to the invention is therefore suitable for all ammunition in which an interaction is provided and in which the selection for the special ammunition effect must be made within a very short time. Such a type of ammunition is a sensor-fired projectile charge, which usually has no prior knowledge of the type of target to be combated and the type of control must be decided within microseconds after the target has been grasped.

Erkennt nun die Bedienungsmannschaft oder der Aquisitionssensor des Flugkörpers einer Drohne, eines Stand-Off-Trägers, oder der Munition daß es sich um schwach gepanzerte Ziele handelt, wird der für die Splitterbildung notwendige Detonator gezündet. Das Zündrohr leitet dann die gleichzeitige Zündung der beiden, im Bereich des Umfanges der Ladung angeordneten Verstärkungsladungen ein. Andererseits erfolgt bei einem stark gepanzerten Ziel, wie Kampf­panzer, die Zündung des für die projektilbildende Ladung maßgebenden Detonators.If the operating team or the acquisition sensor of the missile of a drone, a stand-off carrier, or the ammunition recognizes that these are weakly armored targets, the detonator necessary for the formation of fragments is ignited. The ignition tube then initiates the simultaneous ignition of the two booster charges arranged in the area of the circumference of the charge. On the other hand, in the case of a heavily armored target, such as a battle tank, the detonator which is decisive for the projectile-forming charge is fired.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung darge­stellt.
Es zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 eine projektilbildende Hohlladung;
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt II-II nach Fig. 1.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing.
It shows:
  • 1 shows a projectile-forming shaped charge;
  • 2 shows a section II-II of FIG. 1st

In einer Hülle 1 ist eine projektilbildende Einlage 2, eine Spreng­ladung 3, eine Abdeckplatte 4 und ein Schieber 5 mit zwei elektrisch zündbaren Detonatoren 6,7 in einem Abstand 9 bzw. in einem Radius 25 angeordnet.In a casing 1, a projectile-forming insert 2, an explosive charge 3, a cover plate 4 and a slide 5 with two electrically ignitable detonators 6, 7 are arranged at a distance 9 or in a radius 25.

In der Abdeckplatte 4 sind Bohrungen 11-13 mit darin angeordneten Verstärkungsladungen 15-17 und ein in einem seitlichen Sicherheits­abstand 10 von der Verstärkungsladung 15 V-förmiger Zündkanal 18 mit schnell reagierenden Übertragungsladung 19, wie Sprengstoff, angeordnet. Der Zündkanal 18 ist in der Abdeckplatte 4 eingearbeitet und mit einer Schicht 20 aus einem stoßwellenreduzierenden, porösen Kunststoff, wie Polytetraflourätylen, ausgekleidet. Damit ist der Zündkanal 18 so aufgebaut, daß einerseits die Durchzündung gewähr­leistet ist, andererseits die Stoßenergie innerhalb des durch den Kunststoff gebildeten Zündrohres soweit abgebaut wird, daß weder die vorzeitige Zündung der zentralen Verstärkungsladung 15 noch die der Sprengladung 3 unter dem Zündkanal erfolgt. Nur in Scharf­stellung nimmt der Schieber 5 die gezeichnete Position ein. Ansonsten ist der Schieber 5 in der Sicherstellung in einer nicht wirksamen Position 8.In the cover plate 4 there are bores 11-13 with reinforcing charges 15-17 arranged therein and an ignition channel 18 which is V-shaped at a lateral safety distance 10 from the reinforcing charge 15 and which has a rapidly reacting transfer charge 19 such as explosive. The ignition channel 18 is incorporated in the cover plate 4 and lined with a layer 20 made of a shock wave-reducing, porous plastic, such as polytetrafluoroethylene. Thus, the ignition channel 18 is constructed so that on the one hand the ignition is ensured, on the other hand the impact energy within the ignition tube formed by the plastic is reduced to such an extent that neither the premature ignition of the central booster charge 15 nor that of the explosive charge 3 takes place under the ignition channel. The slider 5 assumes the position shown only in the focused position. Otherwise, the slide 5 is in the safe position 8.

Bei einem stark gepanzerten Ziel zündet der elektrisch ausgelöste Detonator 6 die Verstärkungsladung 15 und diese die Sprengladung 3. Diese formt - in an sich bekannter Weise - aus der Einlage 2 ein panzerbrechendes Projektil.In the case of a heavily armored target, the electrically triggered detonator 6 ignites the booster charge 15 and this the explosive charge 3. This forms - in a manner known per se - an armor-piercing projectile from the insert 2.

Bei einem schwach gepanzerten Ziel zündet der elektrisch ausgelöste Detonator 7 die Übertragungsladung 19 und diese über die Bohrun­gen 12 und 13 die Sprengladung 3 zur bekannten Umformung der Ein­lage 2 in durchschlagsrelevante Splitter. Die einander gegenüber­liegenden Zündorte 23 und 24 ergeben im Sprengstoff sich überschnei­dende Stoßwellen und damit an der Einlage 2 stark unterschiedliche Energieumsetzungspotentiale pro Flächeneinheit und Geschwindigkeits­vaktoren. Dadurch entstehen Splitter.In the case of a weakly armored target, the electrically triggered detonator 7 ignites the transfer charge 19 and this, via the bores 12 and 13, the explosive charge 3 for the known shaping of the insert 2 into breakdown-relevant fragments. The opposing ignition locations 23 and 24 result in overlapping shock waves in the explosive and thus at the insert 2 there are very different energy conversion potentials per unit area and speed factors. This creates splinters.
