Abstract

In this case, it is proposed that each clearance blade element be formed from an upper part which is curved in a concave shape and is continued by digging teeth for the clearance depth. These upper parts are held on a retaining frame via horizontal pivoting shafts, such that they can be adjusted transversely with respect to the movement direction via supporting struts, and are guided on the ground via associated sliding surfaces. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Minenräumanordnung als Vorbaugerät für Fahrzeuge, insbesondere Panzerfahrzeuge, zum Räumen von Landminen, bestehend aus einzelnen Räumschildelementen mit Grabzähnen, die etwa auf einer Linie schräg zur Fahrtrichtung an einem Aufnahmerahmen einstellbar angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a mine clearing arrangement as a front-mounted device for vehicles, in particular armored vehicles, for clearing landmines, consisting of individual clearing blade elements with digging teeth which are arranged on a receiving frame, for example on a line obliquely to the direction of travel.

Derartige Anordnungen mit einer Mehrzahl von Räumelementen je Gerät sind bekannt. Bei Geräten dieser Art besteht das Problem, die Räumtiefe der Grabzähne einzustellen und einzuhalten. Es ist bekannt, relativ große Einzelelemente auszubilden und diese hydraulisch individuell einzustellen. Da es sich hierbei um einen gefährdeten Bereich handelt, ist es unzweckmäßig, hierbei Hydraulikaggregate und entsprechende Zuleitungen anzuordnen.Such arrangements with a plurality of clearing elements per device are known. With devices of this type there is the problem of adjusting and maintaining the broaching depth of the digging teeth. It is known to design relatively large individual elements and to adjust them hydraulically individually. Since this is an endangered area, it is not practical to arrange hydraulic units and corresponding supply lines.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, gattungsgemäße Anordnungen zu verbessern und unter Berücksichtigung einer unebenen Räumfläche eine anpassungsfähige Ausbildung zu schaffen, die eine selbsttätige Einstellung der Räumtiefe ermöglicht und eine robuste ansprengsichere Anordnung gewährleistet.The object of the invention is to improve generic arrangements and to create an adaptable design, taking into account an uneven clearing surface, which enables an automatic adjustment of the clearing depth and ensures a robust, crack-proof arrangement.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß jedes Räumschildelement aus einem konkav gewölbten Oberteil besteht und durch Grabzähne für die Räumtiefe fortgesetzt ist und daß die Oberteile über waagerechte Schwenkachsen quer zur Fahrtrichtung über Stützstreben einstellbar am Aufnahmerahmen gehalten und über zugeordnete Gleitflächen am Boden führbar sind.This object is achieved according to the invention in that each dozer blade element consists of a concavely curved upper part and is continued by digging teeth for the clearing depth and in that the upper parts are over horizontal swivel axes transverse to the direction of travel can be held on the support frame by means of support struts and can be guided on the floor via assigned sliding surfaces.

Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Räumschildelemente individuell einzustellen und dabei eine Halterung durch unempfindliche Elemente vorzunehmen und daß die Grabzahnlänge die Räumtiefe bestimmen.This makes it possible to individually adjust the dozer blade elements and to hold them by insensitive elements and that the digging tooth length determine the clearing depth.

Eine einfache Ausbildung besteht darin, daß die Räumschildelemente über eine einstellbare Schubstange zur Begrenzung der Schwenkbewegung oberhalb zu den Stützstreben gehalten sind.A simple design consists in that the dozer elements are held above the support struts via an adjustable push rod to limit the pivoting movement.

Zur Erhöhung der Räumsicherheit wird vorgeschlagen, die Räumschildelemente mit langen Grabzähnen und kurzen Räumzähnen verbunden sind.In order to increase the safety of the clearing, it is proposed that the clearing blade elements be connected with long digging teeth and short clearing teeth.

Eine günstige Ausgestaltung wird dadurch geschaffen, daß die Gleitflächen über in Fahrtrichtung vorgeschaltete Schrägen mit den Oberteilen verbunden sind, die Grabzähne und/oder Räumzähne zur Verlängerung der Oberteile der Räumschildelemente aufnehmen.A favorable embodiment is created in that the sliding surfaces are connected to the upper parts by inclines connected upstream in the direction of travel, which take up digging teeth and / or clearing teeth for extending the upper parts of the clearing plate elements.

Um eine gute Einstellbarkeit über die Raumbreite zu erhalten, wird vorgeschlagen, über die Fahrzeugbreite mindestens sechs Räumschildelemente ausgebildet sind.In order to obtain good adjustability over the width of the room, it is proposed that at least six dozer blade elements be formed over the width of the vehicle.

Zur Verbesserung der Räumsicherheit ist ferner vorgesehen, daß die benachbarten Räumschildelemente mit einem Versatz angeordnet sind, indem das in Fahrtrichtung hintenliegende Räumschildelement zurückgesetzt ist.In order to improve the safety of the room, it is also provided that the adjacent dozer elements are arranged with an offset, in that the dozer element located at the rear in the direction of travel is reset.

Für einen Einsatz auf Fahrbahnen und festen Straßen wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Grabzähne der Räumschildelemente durch Stahlblechhauben für das Räumen auf festem Untergrund abdeckbar sind.For use on roadways and solid roads, it is proposed that the digging teeth of the Dozer blade elements can be covered by sheet steel hoods for clearing on firm ground.

Um beim Räumen das Fahrzeuggewicht abzustützen und zur Vermeidung, daß sich der Aufnahmerahmen bei großen Räumwiderständen abhebt, ist vorgesehen, daß ein starr mit dem Fahrzeug verbundener Aufnahmerahmen für die Räumschildelemente Gleitflächen zur Höhenpositionierung aufweist.In order to support the vehicle weight when clearing and to prevent the receiving frame from lifting when there are large clearing resistances, it is provided that a receiving frame rigidly connected to the vehicle for the clearing plate elements has sliding surfaces for height positioning.

Zur Herabsetzung der Zerstörungsgefahr bei Detonation ist vorgesehen, daß mindestens die gewölbten Oberteile der Räumschildelemente Durchbrüche aufweisen, die kleiner als die zu räumenden Minen ausgebildet sind.In order to reduce the risk of destruction in the event of detonation, it is provided that at least the curved upper parts of the dozer blade elements have openings which are smaller than the mines to be cleared.

Bei der dargestellten Anordnung ist an einem Panzerfahrzeug 1 mit einem einstellbaren Räum- oder Stützschild 2 ein Aufnahmerahmen 3 eines Minenräumgerätes 4 angeordnet. Hierbei ist das Minenräumgerät 4 über Gelenke 5,6 und Streben 7 fest zugeordnet. Dabei sind Gelenkaugen 8 für die Streben 7 und Gelenkaugen 5 am Räum- und Stützschild 2 und Gelenkaugen 9 für die Streben 7 und Augen 6 am Aufnahmerahmen 3 angeordnet. Der Aufnahmerahmen 3 ist in dieser Ausbildung pfeilartig ausgebildet. Selbstverständlich kann der Aufnahmerahmen auch als schräggestellte Gerade ausgebildet sein.In the arrangement shown, a receiving frame 3 of a mine clearing device 4 is on an armored vehicle 1 with an adjustable clearing or support shield 2 arranged. Here, the mine clearing device 4 is permanently assigned via joints 5, 6 and struts 7. Articulated eyes 8 for the struts 7 and articulated eyes 5 are arranged on the clearing and support plate 2 and articulated eyes 9 for the struts 7 and eyes 6 on the receiving frame 3. The receiving frame 3 is arrow-shaped in this embodiment. Of course, the receiving frame can also be designed as an inclined straight line.

Am Aufnahmerahmen 3 sind einzelne Räumelemente 10 über Stützstreben 15 um gebildete Schwenkachsen 11 bewegbar angelenkt. Die Räumelemente 10 bestehen aus einem konkaven Oberteil 12, das durch eine schräg nach hinten verlaufende Fläche 13 fortgeführt wird und in eine Gleit- und Stützfläche 14 an den Stützstreben 15 übergeht.Individual broaching elements 10 are articulated on support frame 3 via support struts 15 about pivot axes 11 formed. The broaching elements 10 consist of a concave upper part 12, which is continued by an obliquely rearwardly extending surface 13 and merges into a sliding and support surface 14 on the support struts 15.

Die Räumelemente 10 sind oberhalb der Stützstreben 15 über einstellbare Schubstangen 16 in der Lage zum Aufnahmerahmen 3 festgelegt, wobei die Schubstangen 16 eine begrenzte Schwenkbewegung jedes Räumelementes 10 um die zugehörige Schwenkachse 11 zulassen. Die Schubstangen 16 sind einerseits an Ösen 25 des Aufnahmerahmens 3 und andererseits an Ösen 26 der Räumelemente 10 befestigt. An den Schrägen 13 sind weiterhin neben langen Grabzähnen 17 kurze Räumzähne 18 angebracht. Die Abstände zwischen den Grabzähnen 17 einerseits und den kurzen Räumzähnen 18 andererseits sind dadurch so eng, daß eine durch die Grabzähne 17 an die Oberfläche geförderte Mine über die Zähne 17,18 hinweg zur Seite geschoben werden kann. Das gleich geschieht mit aufgeworfenem Erdreich, wobei die konkaven Oberteile 12 zusätzlich verwendet werden. Die Räumelemente 10 werden durch die Flächen 13 und Stützflächen 14 im Rahmen ihres Bewegungsspielraumes auf dem Boden geführt und daran gehindert, durch die Grabzähne 17 in den Boden hineingezogen zu werden. Auf diese Weise ist eine Eigenführung der einzelnen Räumelemente auf unebenem Boden gewährleistet.The clearing elements 10 are fixed above the support struts 15 via adjustable push rods 16 in the position of the receiving frame 3, the push rods 16 permitting a limited pivoting movement of each clearing element 10 about the associated pivot axis 11. The push rods 16 are fastened on the one hand to eyes 25 of the receiving frame 3 and on the other hand to eyes 26 of the clearing elements 10. In addition to long digging teeth 17, short raking teeth 18 are also attached to the bevels 13. The distances between the digging teeth 17 on the one hand and the short clearing teeth 18 on the other hand are so narrow that a mine conveyed to the surface by the digging teeth 17 can be pushed aside over the teeth 17, 18. The same happens with the soil thrown up, the concave upper parts 12 being additionally used. The clearing elements 10 are guided through the surfaces 13 and support surfaces 14 within the scope of their freedom of movement on the floor and prevented from being drawn into the ground by the digging teeth 17. This ensures that the individual clearing elements are guided on uneven ground.

Gemäß Fig. 2 sind die einzelnen Räumelemente 10 an dem Aufnahmerahmen 3 so positioniert, daß das jeweils äußere Element hinter dem inneren Element um ein bestimmtes Maß 19 zurückspringt. Dadurch wird eine einwandfreie Übergabe von aufgeworfenen Minen und sonstigem Räumgut von den inneren Elementen zu den äußeren Elementen sichergestellt.2, the individual clearing elements 10 are positioned on the receiving frame 3 so that the respective outer element springs back by a certain amount 19 behind the inner element. This ensures a flawless transfer of mines and other clearing material from the inner elements to the outer elements.

Zur Sicherstellung einer eindeutigen Position des Räumschildes 2 und des Aufnahmerahmens 3 zum Erdboden sowie zur Abstützung der zugehörigen Gewichte sowie eines Teils des Panzergewichtes befinden sich am Aufnahmerahmen 3 zusätzlich nach vorn ansteigende Gleitflächen 20. Diese bewirken außerdem, daß das Fahrzeug 1 teilweise aus der Federung der Laufrollen 21 herausgehoben wird und dadurch eine eindeutige Höhenposition zum Boden erhält.To ensure a clear position of the dozer blade 2 and the mounting frame 3 to the ground and to support the associated weights and part of the tank weight, there are additional sliding surfaces 20 on the mounting frame 3 which also cause the vehicle 1 to partially come out of the suspension of the Casters 21 is lifted out and thereby receives a clear height position to the floor.

In der Fig. 3 wird die Anpassungsfähigkeit der einzelnen Räumelemente 10 an eine unebene Bodenkontur 22 gezeigt, so daß auch hierbei die Grabzähne 17 über die gesamte Räumbreite hinweg mit in etwa gleicher Tiefe in den Boden eindringen können.3 shows the adaptability of the individual clearing elements 10 to an uneven ground contour 22, so that here, too, the digging teeth 17 can penetrate into the ground with approximately the same depth over the entire clearing width.

Die konkaven Flächen der Räumelemente 10 können mit Durchbrüchen 23 versehen sein, damit Druckwellen einer beim Räumen detonierenden Mine möglichst wenig Widerstand vorfinden und die Beschädigung der Räumelemente 10 in Grenzen gehalten wird. Hierbei richten sich Durchmesser und Abstand der Durchbrüche 23 im wesentlichen nach der Größe und Form der kleinsten zu räumenden Mine. Ähnliche Durchbrüche sind auch in den Flächen 13,14 sinnvoll, wobei aber gewährleistet werden muß, daß die Gleit- und Stützfunktion nicht beeinträchtigt wird.The concave surfaces of the clearing elements 10 can be provided with openings 23 so that pressure waves from a mine detonating during clearing find as little resistance as possible and the damage to the clearing elements 10 is kept within limits. Here, the diameter and spacing of the openings 23 depend essentially on the size and shape of the smallest clearing mine. Similar breakthroughs are also useful in the areas 13, 14, but it must be ensured that the sliding and supporting function is not impaired.

Bei dem Fahrzeug 1 gemäß Fig. 4 ist ein angehobenes Stützschild 2' mit dem daran befestigten Minenräumgerät 4' gezeigt. In dieser Position ist das Fahrzeug 1 in seiner Beweglichkeit kaum behindert und in der Lage, mit erhöhter Geschwindigkeit zum Einsatzort zu fahren.In the vehicle 1 according to FIG. 4, a raised support plate 2 'with the mine clearing device 4' attached to it is shown. In this position, the vehicle 1 is hardly impaired in its mobility and is able to drive to the place of use at increased speed.

Eine Variante ist in Fig. 5 gezeigt, indem die Grabzähne 17 durch Stahlblechhauben 24 abgedeckt werden. Gleichzeitig wird das Stützschild 2 angehoben und die Länge der Streben 7 vergrößert, so daß die Räumelemente 10 innerhalb ihres Schwenkspiels um die Achse 11 mit den Hauben 24 auf dem Boden gleiten. Damit ist es möglich, auf befestigtem Boden, wie Straßen oder Rollbahnen, verstreute Minen zu räumen.A variant is shown in FIG. 5 in that the digging teeth 17 are covered by sheet steel hoods 24. At the same time, the support plate 2 is raised and the length of the struts 7 is increased, so that the clearing elements 10 slide within the pivoting play about the axis 11 with the hoods 24 on the floor. This makes it possible to clear strewn mines on paved ground such as roads or taxiways.
