Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport container according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a transport container is known from US Pat. No. 4,248,342.
  • This transport container for storing and transporting ammunition, explosives, etc. comprises a first tube for receiving the ammunition, a second tube coaxial with the first tube and spacers to keep the two tubes at a fixed distance from one another.
  • the tubes have a plurality of holes that are intended to alleviate explosion pressures.
  • this container is intended to prevent the entire container from flying apart in an uncontrolled manner; rather, its structure means that it absorbs a large part of the explosion pressure due to internal deformations and allows the pressure waves to escape laterally through the holes in the tubes.
  • the explosion pressure escapes on all sides.
  • the container is therefore unsuitable for storage in an aircraft, because the pressure fuselage generated on all sides can destroy the entire aircraft fuselage in the area of the cargo hold.
  • a transport container for use in aircraft for protecting the aircraft structure is known from PCT WO 91/07337.
  • this container On its side facing the outer wall of the aircraft, this container has a wall which is structurally significantly weaker than the other walls. In this way, the weakened wall is destroyed in the event of an explosion in the container, and the explosion pressure should then tear open and escape the opposite fuselage wall through the destroyed container wall. If the container is now located opposite a reinforced wall part of the fuselage, there is a risk that the explosion pressure will not destroy the opposite fuselage wall, but will spread throughout the entire fuselage and uncontrollably rip open the fuselage in several places.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a transport container of the type mentioned, in which a wall opposite the fuselage wall of an aircraft is designed so that an explosion pressure in the container acts in a controlled manner to the outside, with a hole for escape in the opposite fuselage wall of the explosion pressure arises.
  • the invention has several advantages. When a small amount of explosives explodes in the transport container, its pressure energy is absorbed by the deformation of the container. When larger amounts of explosives are exploded, e.g. in an aircraft transport container, their energy is used so that the cutting action of the projectiles only causes a predeterminable small hole in the fuselage. This prevents the spread of a pressure wave in the entire fuselage. Due to the cutting effect of the projectiles, no blowout walls have to be provided in the airframe itself (predetermined breaking points). There is no constructive weakening of the cell structure. An increase in the weight of the airframe due to reinforcements that may be necessary to absorb the discontinuities in the cell structure due to blow-out regions is avoided.
  • the pressure-tight closing of the lid renders conventional barometric detonators ineffective in the event of an attack because the pressure inside the transport container is almost the same as that at the bottom of the shipping point.
  • the differential pressure between the ground pressure at the place of dispatch and the cargo hold pressure during the cruise causes an additional closing force of the cover.
  • Another safety measure for the environment of the transport container is that the internal pressure releasing the splinters or projectiles is less than the holding pressure of the lid.
  • a transport container 1 is located in a cargo hold 3 of an aircraft, indicated by the part of a fuselage wall 2.
  • the transport container is made of pressure-resistant fiber composite material, preferably aramid and carbon fiber laminates.
  • a side wall 4 is provided with a lid 5, which can close the transport container 1 from the inside with known locking devices, not shown.
  • a frame 7 is attached in a sloping bottom wall 6 which is customary in the case of transport containers 1 for aircraft, and is described in more detail below with reference to FIGS.
  • FIG. 2 shows, seen in the direction II of FIG. 1, part of the frame 7 which is inserted into the sloping bottom wall 6.
  • 3 and 4 show the sections III-III and IV-IV through the frame 7.
  • the frame 7 consists of two U-profiles 8 and 9, which are connected by a plurality of webs 11.
  • cover layers 12 and 13 of the bottom wall 6 are used.
  • the cover layer 12 represents the inner wall and the cover layer 13 the outer wall of the transport container.
  • the frame 7 forms a groove-shaped opening 14 towards the outside, in which projectiles 15, such as heavy metal projectiles, are used, which are offset against each other in two rows ends pointing towards the outside run into bevelled cutting edges 15a.
