Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus and a method for testing the dynamic behavior, especially the accuracy of direction, of barrel weapons.
  • a stationary facility is already known with the static behavior of guns or launch tanks tested for missiles, especially barrel weapons can be. This includes in particular the test of the stabilization device and weapons control facilities to understand.
  • the well-known stationary facility is used in particular for the comparison of the above Stabilization and control devices of the gun with the radar and fire control system of the weapon system used.
  • From US-A-4936190 is an electro-optical sighting system known that a video camera on the barrel of a gun used as a sighting device.
  • the video camera will attached to the outer wall of the gun barrel.
  • the sight axis determined by the camera naturally offset against the direction of fire. This document is considered to be the state of the art at night.
  • DE-A-2951108 is an image display device known in which a supplied by a video camera Image displayed together with a displayed crosshair becomes.
  • the corresponding Facility contains one or more guns that are designed with Gun sensors are equipped.
  • the gun sensors are on the pipe, i.e. offset against its soul axis arranged.
  • aiming devices with radar tilt radar
  • search radar search radar
  • To the mathematical comparison of the target radar to the Firing lines of the guns are included in a test measurement a target body moved in space, on which both the Targeting radar as well as targeting the gun sensors, the data of the tracking radar and the Gun sensors in selected spatial points with each other adjusted. This is done by determining the misalignment the guns by means of a sighting device the gun sensors is connected.
  • the misalignment occurs as a deposit of the target body from the middle of one Crosshair in appearance.
  • a suitable Input devices such as a trackball, joystick or the like, the crosshair is set to the center of the target and a correction value is determined from the setting made and saved.
  • the correction values result Correction vectors are then used in practical shooting be taken into account.
  • the video camera is preferably with the help an adapter can be attached to or in the barrel of the barrel weapon in such a way that the optical axis of the video camera is very exactly matches the core axis of the tube.
  • the Image of the video camera is made in a known manner, for example with the help of an appropriate cable, the image display device fed and reproduced by this.
  • the image display device is as portable or device set that can be inserted into a conventional frame.
  • the image display device generates a crosshair or mistake square that in the image supplied by the video camera is displayed and is reproduced together with this.
  • the test device is also to test the dynamic behavior of twin guns applicable. It also contains another video camera, the same as the first on or in Tube of a second gun is attachable. The one from the Images supplied in both video cameras are in the Image display device superimposed and common reproduced. Provided both pipes are aimed at exactly the same target are, the image display device provides a sharp image of the Target. An insufficiently consistent alignment of the Both tubes can be recognized by the blurriness of the picture and by the calibrated crosshairs to measure exactly.
  • the Stabilization device of one installed on a speedboat Guns compensate for the movements of the hull that this due to the swell or due to machine maneuvers.
  • the target is localized using a fire control system Location of the gun barrel in the room determined this to combat of the target. Because to combat mobile weapon systems moving targets the relative position of the target to If the gun changes continuously, the gun must be continuously updated become.
  • the fire control system usually provides guide values that the ballistic properties of the projectiles and in particular the Take wind conditions into account.
  • the Axis of the tube and the optical connecting line between Pipe and target have a certain angle to each other. Since that Test device according to the invention works optically, it is only suitable for testing the accuracy of such guns, at those in the associated fire control system the so-called lead can be switched off. Without consideration The lead axis coincides with the lead the optical connection line between tube and target together, i.e. when looking through the pipe, the target is recognizable.
  • the video camera in the tube of the test gun attached. This is done with the help of a Adapters, whose outer diameter corresponds to the caliber of the pipe. For different calibers there are accordingly different ones Adapter required.
  • the video camera is a Special design, the optical axis of which is precise in relation to yours Housing is adjusted.
  • the adapter is also extremely precise manufactured. This will ensure precise alignment of the optical axis the video camera with the core axis of the tube when fastening the video camera in the tube.
  • the pipe is exactly aligned with the target, the picture of the Target on the image display device exactly in the center of the image. For Any discrepancies can be seen better in the picture Crosshairs or a square of errors appear. If all systems of the weapon system working correctly remains a moving target and always in the center of the picture, even when the weapon system is in full swing or within the square of errors. Thus, by mere Observing the image represented by the image display device of the target over a certain period of time a statement about the Make accuracy of the barrel weapon.
  • the video camera can then, for example attached to the various guns of the ship one after the other to check their dynamic behavior.
  • the Image transmission from the video camera to the image display device preferably takes place via an existing video cable network that the video camera can be connected in the vicinity of each gun is.
  • Fig. 1 is the front portion of a gun barrel 1 and shown a video camera 10 with an adapter 4, the Video camera is connected to a monitor 20 via a cable 30.
  • the cylindrical video camera 10 with a lens 12 is in a essential cylindrical adapter 4 with connecting means 5 Fastening webs 14 fixed by screws 16 so that the axes of rotation 3 of the adapter and the camera coincide.
  • the Adapter 4 is dimensioned so that its outer diameter is the caliber of Gun barrel 1 corresponds, that is, only very slightly smaller than is the inside diameter of the gun barrel 1 so that when inserted of the adapter 4 in the tube 1 also their axes of rotation 3 coincide.
  • An edge flange 7 of the adapter 4 also serves as Stop and handle. About other connecting means such.
  • B. Clamping screws (not shown) is the adapter 4 in the gun barrel 1 attachable. This arrangement ensures that the Rotation axis 3 of the lens arrangement 12 with the rotation or Soul axis 3 of the gun barrel is aligned.
  • optical signals which is the one behind the lens arrangement 12
  • Semiconductor image sensor (not shown) in electrical Pulses are converted via line 30 to a monitor 20 headed.
  • the image of the target is shown on the monitor 20 together with a crosshair 22 useful for setting and measuring work. If the gun barrel 1 is aimed exactly at the target, appears then the image of the target on the monitor 20 exactly in the Middle of the crosshairs 22.
