Abstract

In a zonal defence mine, by means of at least one adjusting member (8, 8') between the standing structure (3) and active-body mounting (2, 2'), themselves connected to one another via a cardan joint (4), the inclination at which an active body (1, 1') can rise from a stand-by position or be fired can be changed. The mine combats an object within a specific zone in the same way and with the same reliability as hitherto, but a substantially larger field can be defended by means of this device: the mine is transported to the "correct" location within the larger field. …<IMAGE>…

Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf eine Mine mit einem Wirkkörper in einer Wirkkörperhalterung und einem Standgerüst, wobei der mit einem Antrieb gekoppelte Wirkkörper die Wirkkörperhalterung nach oben oder seitlich verlassen kann und Wirkkörperhalterung und Standgerüst über ein kardanisches Gelenk miteinander verbunden sind.The invention relates to a mine with an active body in an active body holder and a stand frame, the active body coupled to a drive can leave the active body holder upwards or laterally and the active body holder and stand frame are connected to one another via a cardan joint.

Aus der DE 3 817 265 A1 ist eine Standvorrichtung für eine luftverbringbare Mine bekannt. Durch eine kardanische Aufhängung zwischen dem Minengehäuse und abspreizbaren Stützbeinen wird erreicht, daß die Mine auch im unebenen Gelände vertikal im Schwerefeld ausgerichtet ist, und die Mine beim Starten aus der Lauerstellung senkrecht nach oben transportiert wird. Das Feld, das von einer solchen Mine von oben aus bekämpft werden kann, ist stets ein Kreis mit der Wirkkörperhalterung als Mittelpunkt.DE 3 817 265 A1 discloses a standing device for an air-displaceable mine. A cardanic suspension between the mine housing and expandable support legs ensures that the mine is aligned vertically in the gravitational field even on uneven terrain, and that the mine is transported vertically upwards when starting from the lurking position. The field that can be fought from above by such a mine is always a circle with the active body holder as the center.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Leistungssteigerung einer bekannten Flächenverteidigungsmine durch Vergrößerung der von einer Mine kontrollierbaren Fläche ohne wesentliche Änderungen am Konzept der Flächenverteidigungsmine.The object of the invention is to increase the performance of a known area defense mine by increasing the area controllable by a mine without making any significant changes to the concept of the area defense mine.

In der Patentanmeldung P 39 34 979.9 ist eine Mine beschrieben, bei der ein durch ein kardanisches Gelenk in seiner Neigung fest (meist waagerecht) ausgerichteter Wirkkörper auch noch um eine senkrechte Achse gedreht werden kann. Der stets unter gleicher Neigung startende Wirkkörper fliegt zwar in Richtung des zu bekämpfenden Objektes, verfehlt es aber häufig in der Höhe.Patent application P 39 34 979.9 describes a mine in which an active body, which is fixed (mostly horizontally) in its inclination by a gimbal joint, can also be rotated about a vertical axis. The active body, which always starts at the same inclination, flies in the direction of the object to be controlled, but often misses its height.

Die Aufgabe wird von einer Mine der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, die dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß zwischen Wirkkörperhalterung und Standgerüst wenigstens ein Stellglied vorhanden ist, durch das die Neigung der Wirkkörperhalterung und damit auch die durch die Minenachse festgelegte Startrichtung des Wirkkörpers veränderbar ist, wobei jedoch das Stellglied die Einstellung der Gleichgewichtslage des Wirkkörpers im Schwerefeld beim Aufsetzten oder Aufrichten der Mine zunächst nicht beeinflußt.The object is achieved by a mine of the type mentioned, which is characterized in that at least one actuator is present between the active body holder and the stand is by which the inclination of the active body holder and thus also the starting direction of the active body defined by the mine axis can be changed, but the actuator does not initially affect the setting of the equilibrium position of the active body in the gravitational field when the mine is set up or raised.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungen sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.Further advantageous designs are described in the subclaims.

Mit dieser relativ einfachen und zuverlässigen Maßnahme wird der "Grundkeis" innerhalb dessen ein nach oben aufgestiegener Wirkkörper selbstständig das Objekt suchen und bekämpfen kann nicht verändert, jedoch ist dieser Kreis verschiebbar. Bei einem seitlich das Standgerüst verlassenden Wirkkörper kann das kreisförmige, zunächst linienartige Treffergebiet um das Standgerüst zu einem Band verbreitert werden. Die Vergrößerung des Suchfeldes wird nicht durch andere Nachteile erkauft. Das von der Mine kontrollierbare Feld ist durch die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme wesentliche größer geworden. Die Mine begibt sich innerhalb dieses größeren Bereichs in das "richtige" Feld, für das sie optimal ausgelegt ist. Durch ein Transportieren der Mine in größere Höhen könnte man zwar auch eine Vergrößerung des Einsatzfeldes erreichen; das würde aber auch einen stärkeren Antrieb erfordern und zu einer unerwünschten Vergrößerung der Zeit zwischen Start der Mine und Detonation der Ladung führen. Durch die Neigung der Wirkkörperhalterung zur Vertikalen in Richtung des zu bekämpfenden Objektes kommt ein nach oben startender Wirkkörper schneller und näher auf dieses Objekt zu, und er kann mit höherer Wahrscheinlichkeit die ihm zugewiesene Aufgabe erfüllen. Bei einer Neigung der Minenachse um beispielsweise +/- 15° in zwei zueinander senkrechten Richtungen bzw. bei der Kombination der beiden Neigungen läßt sich die zu bekämpfbare Fläche mehr als verdreifachen, ohne daß die Mine höher transportiert werden muß und ohne Einschränkung der Treffergenauigkeit. Die Wirkladung führt beim Absinken eine kreiselnde Bewegung aus und ist so am Fallschirm angehängt, daß sie in einem bestimmten Winkel zur Senkrechten zur Erde blickt, wobei sie sich noch dreht.With this relatively simple and reliable measure, the "basic ice" within which an active body that has risen to the top can independently search for and fight the object cannot be changed, but this circle can be moved. In the case of an active body leaving the stand scaffold to the side, the circular, initially line-like target area around the stand scaffold can be widened into a band. The enlargement of the search field is not bought by other disadvantages. The field controllable by the mine has become significantly larger as a result of the measure according to the invention. The mine moves into the "correct" field within which it is optimally designed. By transporting the mine to greater heights, the field of application could also be enlarged; however, this would also require more power and lead to an undesirable increase in the time between the start of the mine and the detonation of the cargo. Due to the inclination of the active body holder to the vertical in the direction of the object to be controlled, an active body starting upwards approaches this object faster and closer, and it is more likely that it can perform the task assigned to it. If the mine axis is inclined by, for example, +/- 15 ° in two directions perpendicular to one another or when the two inclinations are combined, the area to be combated can be more than triple without the mine having to be transported higher and without reducing the accuracy of the hit. The active charge makes a circular motion as it descends and is attached to the parachute so that it looks at the earth at a certain angle to the vertical, while it is still rotating.

Das erfindungsgemäße Stellglied kann verschieden ausgebildet sein. Im einfachsten Fall bewirkt es nur eine einmalige, vorher festgelegte Richtungsänderung. Bei einer aufwendigeren Auslegung sind zwei linear unabhängige Stellglieder so angebracht, daß damit für jede gewünschte Richtung eine bestimmte Neigung der Wirkkörperhalterung und damit auch der Minenachse eingestellt werden kann.The actuator according to the invention can be designed differently. In the simplest case, it only causes a one-time, predetermined change of direction. In the case of a more complex design, two linearly independent actuators are fitted in such a way that a certain inclination of the active body holder and thus also of the mine axis can be set for each desired direction.

Das Stellglied soll in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform auch eine dämpfende Wirkung ausüben bzw. kann mit einem Dämpfungsglied zusammengeschaltet sein. Durch eine Dämpfung soll ein Pendeln der Mine z. B. durch Windböen eingeschränkt werden. Durch die Dämpfung darf aber die zunächst gewünschte lotrechte Ausrichtung der Mine beim Aufrichten oder Aufsetzen nicht behindert werden. Mit einer solchen Dämpfungseinrichtung läßt sich bei einer geregelten Einstellung einer bestimmten Minenneigung ein Vergleichsglied einsparen, da durch die frei pendelnd aufgehängte Mine die Senkrechte stets vorgegeben ist, solange die Pendelbewegungen vernachlässigbar sind.In a preferred embodiment, the actuator is also intended to exert a damping effect or can be connected to a damping element. A damping of the mine z. B. be limited by gusts of wind. The damping must not hinder the initially desired vertical alignment of the mine when erecting or putting it down. With such a damping device, a comparison member can be saved with a regulated setting of a certain mine inclination, since the mine is always predetermined by the freely suspended mine, as long as the pendulum movements are negligible.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist zusätzlich zwischen Standgerüst und Wirkkörperhalterung ein Stellmechanismus (Motor) vorgesehen, wodurch ein nicht senkrecht startender Wirkkörper in eine einstellbare Richtung ausgerichtet werden kann.In a further preferred embodiment, an adjusting mechanism (motor) is additionally provided between the stand and the active body holder, as a result of which an active body that does not start vertically can be aligned in an adjustable direction.

Die Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und im folgenden weiter beispielhaft beschrieben. Es zeigen:

Figur 2
Flächenverteidigungsmine in Lauerstellung mit wagerecht startendem Wirkkörper und einem Antrieb zum azinutalen Ausrichten.
The invention is illustrated in the drawing and further described below by way of example. Show it:
Figure 1
Area defense mine in wait position with active body starting up;
Figure 2
Area defense mine in wait position with horizontally starting active body and a drive for azinutal alignment.

Die Figur 1 zeigt eine vereinfachte Ansicht einer aufgerichteten Flächenverteidigungsmine mit nach oben startendem Wirkkörper in Lauerstellung, die strichpunktierten Linien kennzeichnen die Lage von Wirkkörper und Wirkkörperhalterung nachdem ein Stellglied in Aktion getreten ist. Die Mine besteht im wesentlichen aus drei Teilen, Wirkkörper 1, Wirkkörperhalterung 2 und Standgerüst 3, wobei die Wirkkörperhalterung 2 und das Standgerüst 3 über ein kardanisches Gelenk 4 verbunden sind. Beim Verteilen der Flächenverteidigungsmine aus der Luft sind die Aufrichtelemente 5 des Standgerüstes 3 an den Minenkörper angeklappt. Mit Hilfe von Antriebselementen 6 für die Aufrichtelemente 5 wird der Minenkörper 1 nach der Landung so angehoben, daß er freipendelnd in dem kardanischen Gelenk 4 hängt und die Wirkkörperachse 7 auch bei unebenem Gelände praktisch senkrecht ausgerichtet ist. Zwischen dem feststellendem äußeren Rand des kardanischen Gelenkes 4, an dem auch das Standgerüst 3 befestigt ist, nach der Wirkkörperhalterung 2 sind zwei Stellglieder 8, 8' versetzt unter einem Winkel von 90° angebracht. Beim Betätigen der Stellglieder 8, 8' neigt sich die Wirkökörperhalterung 2 um die Achsen 9, 9' des kardanischen Gelenkes 4. In diesem Beispiel sind die Stellglieder 8, 8' durch pyrotechnische Ladungen bewegbare Kolben, die sich einmal aus der Mittelstellung aufwärts oder abwärts bewegen können und dann in dieser Stellung auch bleiben. Es kann damit die Minenachse in eine von acht jeweils um 45° unterschiedliche Richtungen um das Standgerüst um 15° geneigt werden.FIG. 1 shows a simplified view of an erected surface defense mine with the active body starting upwards in a lurking position, the dash-dotted lines indicate the position of the active body and active body holder after an actuator has come into action. The mine essentially consists of three parts, active body 1, active body holder 2 and stand structure 3, the active body holder 2 and the stand structure 3 being connected via a cardan joint 4. When distributing the surface defense mine from the air, the erection elements 5 of the stand 3 are folded against the mine body. With the help of drive elements 6 for the erecting elements 5, the mine body 1 is raised after landing so that it hangs freely in the gimbal joint 4 and the active body axis 7 is practically vertically aligned even on uneven terrain. Between the determining outer edge of the gimbal joint 4, to which the stand 3 is also attached, after the active body holder 2, two actuators 8, 8 'are offset at an angle of 90 °. When the actuators 8, 8 'are actuated, the active body holder 2 tilts about the axes 9, 9' of the cardan joint 4. In this example, the actuators 8, 8 'are pistons which can be moved by pyrotechnic charges and which move upwards or downwards from the central position can move and then remain in this position. The mine axis can thus be inclined in one of eight directions, each 45 ° different, around the stand frame by 15 °.

Der Befehl, welches Stellglied in vertikale Richtung bewegt werden soll, wird von der Elektronik der Mine erzeugt. Durch von der Mine selbstverlegte Sensoren, die über Sensorleitungen 10, Signale in die Elektronik der Mine einspeisen, kann ermittelt werden, in welche Richtung das zu bekämpfende Objekts zu suchen ist. Erst nach der erfolgten Einstellung wird der Raketenmotor 11 gestartet; der Wirkkörper 1 wird näher zu dem zu bekämpfenden Objekt hin transportiert, d.h. das Objekt wird besser und länger in dem Suchkreis der Mine sein, als wenn die Mine wie bisher senkrecht nach oben gestartet wäre.The command of which actuator should be moved in the vertical direction is generated by the electronics of the mine. Sensors, which are installed by the mine and feed signals into the mine electronics via sensor lines 10, can be used to determine the direction in which the object to be combated is to be sought. Only after the setting has been made is the rocket motor 11 started; the active body 1 is transported closer to the object to be controlled, i.e. the object will be better and longer in the mine search circle than if the mine had started vertically upwards as before.

Bei einem seitlich das Standgerüst 3 verlassenden Wirkkörper 1', wie in Figur 2, kann das Treffergebiet erfindungsgemäß nach zwei Richtungen hin vergrößert werden. Mittels der Stellglieder 8, 8' kann die Neigung der Wirkkörperhalterung 2 (Wirkkörperachse 7') beim Abschuß nach oben oder nach unten geändert werden. Die Massenverteilung ist rotationssymmetrisch zu der Achse 12 und infolge des kardanischen Gelenkes 4 ist die Wirkkörperhalterung 2' (bei genügend tiefem Schwerpunkt) zunächst horizontal. Darüber hinaus ist bei dieser Ausführung die Wirkkörperhalterung 2' um die Achse 12 auch drehbar. Durch einen Antrieb 13 in Verbindung mit einem Kompaß oder Richtungssensoren erfolgt die azimutale Ausrichtung des Wirkkörpers 1'. Statt eines kreisförmig linienartigen Treffergebietes, wie bei einer Ausführungsform gemäß der Patentanmeldung P 39 34 979.9, ergibt sich erfindungsgemäß ein kreisfömiger bandartiger erweiterter Bereich.In the case of an active body 1 'which laterally leaves the stand scaffold 3, as in FIG. 2, the target area can be enlarged in two directions according to the invention. By means of the actuators 8, 8 ', the inclination of the active body holder 2 (active body axis 7') can be changed when firing up or down. The mass distribution is rotationally symmetrical to the axis 12 and, due to the cardan joint 4, the active body holder 2 '(with a sufficiently low center of gravity) is initially horizontal. In addition, in this embodiment the active body holder 2 'can also be rotated about the axis 12. The drive body 1 'is aligned azimuthally by a drive 13 in conjunction with a compass or direction sensors. Instead of a circular line-like hit area, as in an embodiment according to patent application P 39 34 979.9, the invention results in a circular band-like extended area.
