Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for loading tubular weapons, in particular self-propelled howitzers, with a propellant charge, consisting of a loading arm pivotally mounted on the pivot bearing of the tube with a charging shell for a projectile and an attachment device engaging on the floor of the projectile with a drive, the projectile by means of the Loading arms can be brought into a starting position aligned with the core axis of the tube and transported into the tube by means of the attachment device and locked in the trains thereof.
  • a known device of the structure mentioned at the outset gives the possibility of picking up bullets standing vertically in a floor magazine by means of a gripper from the magazine and placing them directly in the existing index position of the tube.
  • the gripper on the loading arm can be pivoted about a further axis approximately perpendicular to the pivot axis.
  • the loading arm is pivoted upwards until the projectile resting on a loading shell is aligned with the core axis of the tube. From this starting position, the projectile is then transported into the tube by means of the attachment device.
  • the projectile In the starting position, the projectile is at a considerable distance from its final position in the tube. This distance must be bridged by the piecing in the known embodiment.
  • the projectile In the case of two-piece ammunition, in which the projectile and propellant charge are introduced separately into the pipe, the projectile must be locked in the trains of the pipe. For this purpose, it has on its outside near the bottom a ring made of soft-deformable material, which is sealed in the trains of the pipe. Considerable acceleration forces have to be applied for this. Since the charging cradle can only lead the projectile to the bottom of the tube, the projectile therefore has to be transported through the base piece and the propellant charge space in free flight, it is hardly possible to start it properly from the starting position.
  • the attachment is made even more difficult by the fact that the propellant space is narrowed towards the rear by a bottom ring which projects into the free cross section of the lower apex of the propellant space and has the task of supporting the introduced propellant charge when the pipe is elevated.
  • This floor ring forms a "stumbling edge" for the projectile, in particular for the locking ring on the projectile. This causes the projectile to tilt.
  • the invention has for its object to enable a perfect locking of the projectile in the trains of the tube.
  • this object is achieved according to the invention in that the charging cradle can be moved in a guide on the loading arm between the starting position and a template position centered on the tube, and in that the attachment device has a support moved together in the starting position and engaging on the floor of the projectile , which can be brought into a stretched position in synchronism with the movement of the charging cradle and can be displaced in the stretching position by means of the drive relative to the fixed charging cradle while accelerating the projectile into the tube in a guide.
  • the projectile lying on the charging cradle is brought up to the tube by means of the charging cradle, the projectile tip projecting above the charging cradle being able to protrude into the tube.
  • the support that is in contact with the floor of the storey is brought synchronously from its collapsed position into an extended position, which it finally reaches in the template position. From the template position, the support then acts as a piecing by continuing to run in the guide and accelerating the projectile into the tube by means of the drive. On the one hand, this bridges the relatively large distance between the starting position and the final position of the projectile in the tube.
  • the prop acting as a piecer only becomes effective in the template position from which the projectile is accelerated.
  • the projectile moves freely in the pipe for a short distance until it is locked in the trains of the pipe.
  • the support moves back to the starting position together with the charging cradle.
  • the support is coupled to the charging cradle via catches and can be erected into its extended position by its movement is. Only one drive is required to raise the support and move the charging cradle.
  • the drive of the attachment device is formed from at least one motor-biased spring, a transmission with the transmission that converts the spring travel into a rotary movement and a chain drive coupled to the transmission and acting on the support in the extended position.
  • the spring drive provided according to the invention has the advantage that relatively large forces can be released suddenly, so that the projectile experiences sufficient acceleration.
  • the gear unit consists of a toothed rack, a fixed pinion which meshes with it and a transmission wheel which sits on its axis and which drives a chain wheel of the chain drive.
  • the design of the drive according to the invention with a gear and a chain drive has the advantage that a multiplication of the travel can be achieved in a simple manner in the always cramped space.
  • the spring travel can be translated to at least 1: 2, preferably more than 1: 3, by means of the transmission and the chain drive. This can be achieved in the simplest form by translating the spring travel by means of different diameters of the pinion and the transmission gear connected to it.
  • the rack is connected to one end of the spring and the pinion is mounted in a fixed position on the loading arm, and that at the other end of the spring the drive which excites it when the rack is fixed attacks. In this way, the biasing force of the spring is transmitted directly to the rack.
  • the chain drive guides a chain wheel via the driving sprocket, one sprocket arranged at each end of the charging cradle to one side of the support and from the driving sprocket via at least one sprocket attached to the loading arm to the other side of the support their ends are attached to the support, the fixed points being arranged at locations which are not influenced during the extension movement of the support.
  • a further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the support is formed from a lever linkage which can be brought from a flat folded position in the starting position to a stable extended position in the template position.
  • the configuration can in particular be made so that the lever linkage consists of two parallelogram linkages connected in series, the consecutive links each form an articulated lever, which at one end on a base forming the foot of the support and at its other end on one on the floor of the projectile engaging, forming a pressure piece coupling are articulated, the articulated joint of the one articulated lever being bridged by a joint spreader whose joint runs in a guide which extends between the articulated levers and on which the joint of the other articulated lever is arranged.
  • the aforementioned training gives the possibility to move the lever linkage together in the smallest space or, conversely, to achieve the greatest possible stretching length with the smallest space requirement.
  • the stability of the support for accelerating the projectile can be supported by the fact that at least one of the articulated levers moves into an over-center system, which is ensured by an additional spring.
  • the folding of the lever linkage can be specifically supported in that the lever linkage is assigned a stop device which bends the lever linkage to the side when it is moved together.
  • the charging cradle has a longitudinal slot in the region of its lower apex, in which a guide carriage arranged on the support runs after reaching the template position during the attachment movement.
  • a further preferred embodiment is characterized in that a triggering device engages at the base of the lever linkage forming the support, which locks the support from the folded position into the extended position during the erection of the lever linkage and at the same time blocks the transmission via the chain and thus also with the rack connected end of the spring fixed, which is biased during the erection of the lever linkage by means of the drive, and that the release device releases the extended support and thus the chain, so that the pretensioning force of the spring acts on the support via gear and chain, and this supports this Projectile accelerated into the attachment position.
  • the charging cradle In order to be able to bring the projectile up to or into the tube on the charging cradle, the charging cradle is centered in the template position in the region of the bottom of the tube.
  • the charging cradle is preferably centered on the base ring, ie the charging tray is moved into the base part of the tube and is there on the base ring centered and only then does the support carry out its attachment movement.
  • the projectile which already protrudes into the base of the tube in the template position, can be accelerated without hindrance from the charging cradle via the base ring and locked in the trains.
  • the support by means of the drive for pretensioning the spring, which entrains the chain operation via the relaxed spring, the rack and the transmission, from the attachment position the template position can be returned to the starting position, the charging cradle acting on the stop device initiating the folding movement of the lever linkage when the starting position is reached.
  • FIG. 1 the turret 1 of a tank with the tube 2 is shown.
  • a partially ring-shaped magazine 3 is arranged with the storeys 4 therein, which are guided in a loop on the partially ring-shaped path by means of a chain drive or the like.

  • the loading arm 8 is suspended from the tube 2 on pivot bearings, the axis of which coincides with the axis of rotation 6 of the tube 2.
  • the loading arm 8 is assigned a swivel drive 9 attached to the armored turret, which engages an extension 10 of the lever of the loading arm 8 shown on the right, which extends beyond the axis 6.
  • At least one gripper 14 is mounted on the loading arm 8 on a vertical axis 11 via arms 12.
  • the gripper 14 can be pivoted by means of the arms 12 about the vertical axis 11 to the projectile 4 standing in the takeover position 3 ', in which the projectile is taken over by the gripper 14.
  • the rotary drive 15 is used to pivot the gripper.
  • a loading shell 13 is also arranged on the loading arm 8, into which the projectile taken over is inserted after the gripper 14 has been pivoted back.
  • the loading arm 8 After taking over the projectile, the loading arm 8 is pivoted about the axis 6 by means of the swivel drive 9 into the index position of the tube 2, in which the projectile reaches the starting position 4 'for loading (see FIG. 2).
  • An attachment device 16 is used for loading.
  • the attachment device 16 has a collapsible support 17 (FIG. 3), not shown in FIG. 2, which engages on the floor of the projectile 4.
  • the charging cradle 13 is movably guided on the loading arm 8, so that the projectile can be brought from the starting position 4 'according to FIG. 2 into a template position 4''by means of the charging cradle.
  • the support 17 acting on the floor of the projectile comes into a stable extended position, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the charging cradle 13 has a base 22 with laterally projecting guide strips 23 (FIG. 4), by means of which it can be moved in flat guides 24 on the loading arm 8. Furthermore, the charging cradle 13 has an open longitudinal slot 25 in the area of its lower apex and at least in its rear area, in which a downwardly projecting guide slide 26 runs on the support designated overall by 17 in order to prevent the attachment movement from the template position 4 '' (FIG 3) to be able to perform.
  • the guide slide 26 of the support 17 runs with sliders 28 in a fixed guide rail 27 and in the further course of the movement in guides 23 'on the base of the charging cradle 13.
  • the guide rail engages in the base 22 of the charging cradle so that the support 17 in the extended position is correctly guided during the attachment movement on the loading arm or on the charging cradle.
  • the support 17 is shown schematically in FIG. 3 as a simple buckling bar. In fact, it consists of a multi-link lever linkage, which is shown in more detail in Figures 5 to 7.
  • the retracted position of the lever linkage at the end of the lifting arm is designated 17 '. This position corresponds to the starting position shown in FIG. 2, while in FIG. 6 the extension position is denoted by 17 ′′, which the lever linkage assumes in the presentation position 4 ′′ of the projectile according to FIG. 3.
  • This extended position maintains the lever linkage when moving into the attachment position 4 '' '(FIGS. 3 and 7).
  • the lever linkage consists of two parallelogram-like linkages that are connected in series.
  • the rear parallelogram linkage is formed by links 29, 30, a base 31 forming the foot of the support 17 and a coupling 32, which at the same time establishes the connection to the front parallelogram.
  • This in turn consists of the links 33, 34 with the coupling 32 as the base and the one connecting them at the other end Coupling 35, which in turn forms the pressure piece of the attachment device resting against the floor of the projectile.
  • the two parallelogram linkages have the task of guiding the pressure piece 35 parallel to the floor of the floor 4 during the entire movement sequence.
  • the links 29, 33 and 30, 34 arranged one behind the other each form an articulated lever which is shown in the extended position in FIGS. 6 and 7.

  • the joint 37 of one articulated lever is bridged by means of a joint spreader 38, 39, which in turn has a joint 40.
  • the coupling 32 is designed as a guide, in which the joint 40 of the joint struts 38, 39 is guided, for example by means of a sliding block. In this way, a lateral compensating movement is possible, which ensures that the pressure piece 35 is always guided in the tube axis.
  • the extended position of the arms of the articulated levers 29, 33 and 30, 34 is limited by appropriate stops at the ends of the handlebars facing each other.
  • the lever linkage 17 can be folded laterally from the extended position 17 ′′ in order to reach the collapsed position 17 ′.

  • the charging cradle 13 has its own drive 43, which is designed, for example, as an electric motor and acts via a spindle 44 on an attachment 45 with a spindle nut on the base 22.
  • the drive 43 By means of the drive 43, the charging cradle 13 and the inserted projectile 4 are moved from the starting position 4 ', in which the support 17 is in its folded position 17' (FIG. 5), to the template position 4 ''.
  • the lever linkage is not shown on the driver on the charging cradle taken, erected and brought into the extended position 17 '' (Fig. 6).
  • a drive spring 21 for the attachment movement of the support 17 is a motor-tension spring 46 which acts on the support via a multi-unit gear.
  • the spring 46 is relaxed in the starting position (Fig. 5). It extends between two abutments 47, 48, of which the front abutment 48 can be moved to tension the spring.
  • a motor 49 is provided which drives via a chain 50 or the like onto a spindle 51 passing through the spring 46, which in turn drives the abutment 48 and in the template position (FIG. 6) sets the spring under tension.

  • This floor ring forms a "stumbling edge" for the projectile 4, in particular the projectile ring 20, which makes it difficult to position the projectile correctly.
  • the charging cradle 13 is therefore moved from the starting position 4 'according to FIGS. 2 and 5 into the template position 4' 'according to FIGS. 3 and 6 up to the bottom ring 69 such that the charging cradle creates a flush transition on the bottom ring 69.
