Description

Vorrichtung zur Tarnung militärischer Geräte  Device for camouflaging military devices
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zur Tarnung militärischer Geräte, bestehend aus einem mehrere Tragarme aufweisenden Gestell, das ein Tarnnetz od.dgl. trägt, wobei das obere Ende mindestens einiger Tragarme an einem Verbindungskörper befestigt ist. Aus der DE-AS-1 453 898 sind Vorrichtungen diesel Art bekannt, deren Tragarme ahnlich wie bei einem Regenschirm auf- und zusammenklappbar sind, wobei meist mehrere Schirme zur Tarnung eines Gerätes verwendet werden. Andere Tarnvorrichtungen besitzen Tragarme, die fächerartig um an einem Träger angeordnete vertikale Achsen auf- und zusammenklappbar sind.  The invention relates to a device for camouflaging military devices, consisting of a frame having a plurality of support arms, or the like, a camouflage net. carries, the upper end of at least some support arms is attached to a connecting body. DE-AS-1 453 898 devices of this type are known, the support arms of which can be opened and closed in a manner similar to that of an umbrella, usually several umbrellas being used to camouflage a device. Other camouflage devices have support arms which can be opened and closed in a fan-like manner about vertical axes arranged on a support.
Die bekannten Tarnvorrichtungen haben den Nachteil, daß immer eine Art Kreisform, jedenfalls aber ein im wesentlichen regelmäßiges Gebilde entsteht. Jede Regelmäßigkeit vermindert jedoch die Tarnwirkung, weil ein regelmäßiges Gebilde in der Natur viel mehr auffällt, als ein unregelmäßig geformtes.  The known camouflage devices have the disadvantage that there is always a kind of circular shape, but in any case an essentially regular structure. However, any regularity reduces the camouflage effect, because a regular structure in nature stands out much more than an irregularly shaped one.
In der US-PS 4 021 974 ist ein Tarngestell beschrieben, das im wesentlichen aus vier gelenkig miteinander verbundenen geraden Teilen und einem bogenförmigen Teil besteht, wobei über dem bogenförmigen Teil zu zwei Gelenkpunkten der geraden Teile ein Band gespannt ist. Dieses Tarngestell besitzt den gleichen Nachteil wie die oben beschriebenen Vorrichtungen, weil das bei Entfaltung des Gestelles entstehende Gebilde regelmäßig mit zwei zueinander senkrecht stehenden Hauptachsen, die gleichzeitig Symetrieachsen sind, ist.  US Pat. No. 4,021,974 describes a camouflage frame which essentially consists of four articulated straight parts and an arcuate part, a band being stretched over the arcuate part at two points of articulation of the straight parts. This camouflage frame has the same disadvantage as the devices described above, because the structure formed when the frame is unfolded is regularly with two mutually perpendicular main axes that are simultaneously axes of symmetry.
Die Erfindung hat es sich daher zum Ziel gesetzt, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art derart zu verbessern, daß das damit getarnte Gerät unregelmäßig erscheint, wobei jedoch trotzdem ein schneller Auf- und Abbau der Vorrichtung sowie eine Beweglichkeit des Gerätes gewährleistet sein soll. Erreicht wird dies dadurch, daß das Gestell aus elastisch oder plastisch verformbaren Armen besteht. Bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung können die Arme im wesentlichen beliebig verformt werden, sodaß das gewollte unregelmäßige Gebilde entsteht. Die Tarnwirkung ist damit gegenüber den bekannten Vorrichtungen vielfach erhöht. Bei plastisch verformbaren Armen bleibt die Gestalt des Gebildes nach dem Verformen der Arme von selbst bestehen. Um die Form auch bei elastisch verformbaren Armen zu erhalten, greift nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung bei elastisch veriormbaren Armen am Verbindungskorper und/oder an einzelnen Armen ein Zugseil an, das die Arme in einer vorbestimmten Stellung hält. The invention has therefore set itself the goal of improving a device of the type mentioned in such a way that the device camouflaged with it appears irregular, but nevertheless a quick assembly and disassembly of the device and mobility of the device should be ensured. This is achieved in that the frame consists of elastically or plastically deformable arms. In a device according to the invention, the arms can be deformed essentially as desired, so that the desired irregular structure is created. The camouflage effect is thus increased many times over the known devices. In the case of plastically deformable arms, the shape of the structure remains of its own accord after the arms have been deformed. In order to maintain the shape even in the case of elastically deformable arms, according to a further feature of the invention, in the case of elastically deformable arms, a pulling rope acts on the connecting body and / or on individual arms, which holds the arms in a predetermined position.
Um auf einfache Weise eine Änderung der Form des Gebildes herbeiführen zu können, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn zum verschie- den starken Spannen des Zugseiles oder der Zugseile eine Klemme oder Klemmen angeordnet ist bzw. sind.  In order to be able to bring about a change in the shape of the structure in a simple manner, it is advantageous if a clamp or clamps is or are arranged for differently strong tensioning of the traction rope or traction ropes.
Bevorzugte Formen des Gebildes können dann leicht erreicht werden, wenn die Arme über ihre Länge verschiedene Preferred shapes of the structure can be easily achieved if the arms differ over their length
Querschnitte aufweisen. Ein Verformen der Arme wird dann in den Bereichen kleineren Querschnittes früher auftreten als in den anderen Bereichen. Have cross sections. Deformation of the arms will then occur earlier in the areas of smaller cross-section than in the other areas.
Die Verbindung einzelner Arme erfolgt besonders einfach, wenn diese Arme über einen scheibenförmigen Verbindungskörper miteinander verbunden sind.  The connection of individual arms is particularly simple if these arms are connected to one another via a disk-shaped connecting body.
Um eine gute Anpassung des Tarnnetzes an das Geasteil zu erreichen, kann das Tarnnetz mindestens teilweise elastisch ausgebildet sein.  In order to achieve a good adaptation of the camouflage net to the guest part, the camouflage net can be at least partially elastic.
Nachstehend ist die Erfindung an Hand von in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher beschrieben. Dabei zeigen jeweils bei abgenommenem Tarnnetz od.dgl.:  The invention is described in more detail below on the basis of exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings. In each case, with the camouflage net or the like removed:

Die Fig.8 und 9 bzw. Fig.10 und 11 bzw. Fig.12 und 13 jeweils Gebildeformen bei gleichem Gestell jedoch anderer Form der Arme.  8 and 9 or 10 and 11 or 12 and 13 each form shapes with the same frame but different shape of the arms.
Gemäß den Fig.1 bis 3 sind elastisch verformbare Arme 1 vorgesehen, die im gezeigten Beispiel einen flachen Quer schnitt besitzen. Diese Arme 1 sind an ihrem oberen Ende über1 to 3, elastically deformable arms 1 are provided, which in the example shown have a flat cross own cut. These arms 1 are over at their upper end
Scharniere 1' an einem scheibenförmigen Verbindungskorper 2 befestigt, der einen umlaufenden Verstarkungswulst 3 autweist. Hinges 1 'are attached to a disc-shaped connecting body 2 which has a circumferential reinforcing bead 3.
Die dem Verbindungskorper 2 gegenüberliegenden Enden der Arme 1 sind durch Seile 4 miteinander verbunden und mit The opposite ends of the connecting body 2 of the arms 1 are connected to each other by ropes 4 and with
Pixierorganen (nicht dargestellt), z.B. Spießen, Haken,Pixel organs (not shown), e.g. Skewers, hooks,
Saugern od.dgl. versehen, die eine Verbindung der Arme 1 mit dem Boden oder dem zu tarnenden Gerat ermöglichen. Ein ZugseilSuckers or the like provided that allow a connection of the arms 1 to the ground or the device to be camouflaged. A pull rope
5 ist vom Boden (oder Gerät) nach oben durch eine Öffnung 6 des Verbmdungskorpers 2 zu einer Klemme 7 gefuhrt, wo es f ixiert ist . Die Klemme 7 könnte nach Art einer Hebelklemme ausgebildet sein, wie sie zur Fixierung der Leinen bei Seglern verwendet wird. 5 is led upwards from the floor (or device) through an opening 6 of the connecting body 2 to a clamp 7, where it is fixed. The clamp 7 could be designed in the manner of a lever clamp, as is used to fix the lines in sailors.
Ein weiteres Zugseil 8 ist von dem in der Zeichnung vorderen rechten Arm 1 zum Boden (bzw. dem Gerat) gespannt.  Another traction rope 8 is stretched from the front right arm 1 in the drawing to the floor (or the device).
Wie aus Fig.1 ersichtlich ist, entsteht durch die Flexibilität der Arme 1 und die Verspannung durch die Zugseile 5, 8 ein unregelmäßiges Gebilde, ein Schemkorper, der, wird er mit einem Tarnnetz od.dgl. überzogen, eine vorzügliche Tarnung ergibt. Dabei ist es auf einfache Weise möglich, die Form dieses Gebildes zu verandern. Es braucht nur die wirksame Lange des Zugseiles 5 oder 8 verändert werden, bzw. wird die Form dann verändert, wenn beim Anziehen des Zugseiles 5 ein Arm 1 entweder nach innen oder nach außen gebogen wird.  As can be seen from FIG. 1, the flexibility of the arms 1 and the bracing by the traction ropes 5, 8 create an irregular structure, a body which, if it is covered with a camouflage net or the like. covered, gives an excellent camouflage. It is easily possible to change the shape of this structure. It is only necessary to change the effective length of the pull rope 5 or 8, or the shape is changed if an arm 1 is bent either inwards or outwards when the pull rope 5 is tightened.
Als Beispiel für ein zu tarnendes Gerat ist in Fig.4 ein einfacher würfelformiger Körper 10 gezeigt, dessen Form typisch z.B. für einen LKW ist. Wird der Korper 10 durch Tarnnetze abgedeckt, bleibt dessen Form im wesentlichen unverändert, der Korper bleibt auffallend, die Tarnwirkung ist dem- nach gering.  As an example for a device to be camouflaged, a simple cube-shaped body 10 is shown in FIG. for a truck. If the body 10 is covered by camouflage nets, its shape remains essentially unchanged, the body remains conspicuous, and the camouflage effect is accordingly low.
Auch bei einem seitlichen Abspannen der übergeworfenen Netze 11 gemäß Fig.5 ergibt sich nur eine geringfügige Formänderung, sodaß der Korper weiterhin auffallend bleibt.  Even when the thrown-over nets 11 are braced laterally according to FIG. 5, there is only a slight change in shape, so that the body remains conspicuous.
Selbst wenn die Netze 11 entsprechend Fig.6 durch Stangen und Äste unterstutzt werden, ergibt sich eine typische Zeitform, die in der Natur kaum vorkommt.  Even if the nets 11 are supported by rods and branches in accordance with FIG. 6, there is a typical tense that hardly occurs in nature.
Werden jedoch , wie in fig.7 gezeigt, mehiere Scheinkolpen 9, deren Aufbau dem Schemkorper 9 nach Fig.1 entspricht, deren Form jedoch jeweils verschieden ist, auf dem Körper 10 aufgebaut und mit Tarnnetzen od.dgl. Überworten, ergeben sich völlig unregelmäßige Konturen, wie sie in der Natur im Prinzip immer wieder vorkommen. However, as shown in FIG. 7, multiple false pistons 9, the structure of which corresponds to the body 9 in FIG. However, the shape of each is different, built on the body 10 and the like with camouflage nets. If you talk about it, there are completely irregular contours, as they always occur in nature in principle.
Die Fig.8 und 9 veranschaulichen, wie mit den gleichen Figures 8 and 9 illustrate how with the same
Elementen, nämlich Armen 1 und einem Zugseil b, völlig verschiedene Gebilde bzw. Scheinkörper erzeugt werden können. Werden die Arme 1 beim Anziehen des Zugseiles 5 nach innen gebogen, entsteht die in Fig.8 gezeigte Form des Schemkörpers, wogegen bei einem Biegen der Arme 1 nach außen der in Fig.9 dargestellte Scheinkörper entsteht. Elements, namely arms 1 and a traction rope b, completely different structures or dummy bodies can be generated. If the arms 1 are bent inwards when the traction cable 5 is tightened, the shape of the shear body shown in FIG. 8 arises, whereas when the arms 1 are bent outwards, the apparent body shown in FIG. 9 is formed.
Die Fig.10 bis 13 zeigen weitere Möglichkeiten von Scheinkörpern, die bei elastisch verformbaren Armen 1 lediglich durch die den Armen 1 anfänglich erteilte Vertormungsrichtung bestimmt sind.  10 to 13 show further possibilities of dummy bodies which, in the case of elastically deformable arms 1, are determined only by the direction of deformation initially given to the arms 1.
Die Erfindung kann auch mit plastisch verformbaren Armen verwirklicht werden. Solche plastisch verformbaren Arme könnten z.B. aus Kunststoff oder aus Rohren aus gewendelten Pro- filen bestehen. Solche Rohre werden z.B. als Lampenträger oder auch als Verbindungsleitungen für Wasser, Kühl- oder Schmier- mittel verwendet.  The invention can also be implemented with plastically deformable arms. Such plastically deformable arms could e.g. consist of plastic or of tubes made of coiled profiles. Such pipes are e.g. used as a lamp holder or as a connection line for water, coolant or lubricant.
Bei erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtungen, die aus plastisch verformbaren Armen bestehen, ist die Anwendung von Zugseilen nicht erforderlich und es können sämtliche der in den Fig.1 und Fig.8 bis Fig.13 dargestellten Formen der Scheinkörper, und selbstverständlich noch unzählige mehr, gebildet werden.  In devices according to the invention, which consist of plastically deformable arms, the use of traction ropes is not necessary and all of the shapes of the dummy bodies shown in FIGS. 1 and 8 to 13 can be formed, and of course countless more.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung sind zahlreiche Abänderungen mög- lich. Wie bereits ausgeführt, könnten die Arme 1 über ihre Länge einen verschiedenen Querschnitt aufweisen. Bei einer Verformung würden sich dann "Sollbiegestelien" ergeben. Es wäre auch möglich, das Tarnnetz teilweise oder zur Ganze elastisch auszubilden, wodurch sich eine bessere Anpassung an das jeweilige Gestell ergibt. Numerous modifications are possible within the scope of the invention. As already stated, the arms 1 could have a different cross section over their length. A deformation would then result in "predetermined bending lines". It would also be possible to make the camouflage net elastic in part or in its entirety, which results in a better adaptation to the respective frame.
