Definitions

  • 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.
  • camouflage devices have the disadvantage that there is always a kind of circular shape, but in any case an essentially regular structure.
  • any regularity reduces the camouflage effect, because a regular structure in nature stands out much more than an irregularly shaped one.
  • 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.
  • the frame consists of elastically or plastically deformable arms.
  • 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.
  • plastically deformable arms the shape of the structure remains of its own accord after the arms have been deformed.
  • a pulling rope acts on the connecting body and / or on individual arms, which holds the arms in a predetermined position.
  • a clamp or clamps is or are arranged for differently strong tensioning of the traction rope or traction ropes.
  • Preferred shapes of the structure can be easily achieved if the arms differ over their length
  • connection of individual arms is particularly simple if these arms are connected to one another via a disk-shaped connecting body.
  • the camouflage net can be at least partially elastic.
  • FIG. 1 shows a diagrammatic view of a device according to the invention with elastically deformable arms
  • FIG. 2 shows the bottom view of the connection point of the individual arms according to FIG. 1 on an enlarged scale
  • FIG. 4 shows a simple rectangular body which is to be camouflaged; 5 to 7 show the various camouflage options, FIG. 7 schematically representing the advantageous camouflage according to the invention;
  • 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
  • Hinges 1 ' are attached to a disc-shaped connecting body 2 which has a circumferential reinforcing bead 3.
  • Pixel organs e.g. Skewers, hooks,
  • the clamp 7 could be designed in the manner of a lever clamp, as is used to fix the lines in sailors.
  • Another traction rope 8 is stretched from the front right arm 1 in the drawing to the floor (or the device).
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the invention can also be implemented with plastically deformable arms.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Chen garnishing material can be cut or punched using a wide variety of surfaces, gloss levels and colors. It is also possible to equip with radar-insulating materials or with radar-reflecting materials. Corine extension elements, for example arms projecting outwards, may be provided to avoid sharp edge contours. It is also possible to use internally suspended parts to create shadows or bodies.
