- Tension member for example a cord is arranged.
- the length of this cord or cords By changing the length of this cord or cords, the shape of the frame and thus the structure serving the Tamung can also be changed.
- a particularly rapid use of a device according to the invention is achieved if a fastening strap or the like for fastening to the device to be tampered is arranged on at least one of the arms. It is thus possible to leave the device on the device permanently, taking up little space when folded. If the device is to be tuned, pulling on one of the arms or on the cord connecting the connecting bodies is practically sufficient to bring the device into its operative position.
- the tamnet carried by the elastically or plastically deformable arms is at least partially elastic.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a frame of a device according to the invention in the folded state.
- Figure 2 on an enlarged scale the connecting body used in the frame of Figure 1;

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zur Tamung militärischer Geräte gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a device for Tamung military devices according to the preamble of
Geräte dieser Art haben den Vorteil, daß die Arme vielfach verformt werden können, sodaß ein unregelmäßiges Gebilde entsteht. Eine Regelmäßigkeit, wie sie andere bekannte Tamvorrichtungen aufweisen, vermindert nämlich die Tamwirkung, weil ein regelmäßiges Gebilde in der Natur viel mehr auffällt, als ein unregelmäßig geformtes.Devices of this type have the advantage that the arms can be deformed many times, so that an irregular structure is formed. A regularity, as they have other known tam devices, reduces the tam effect, because a regular structure in nature stands out much more than an irregularly shaped one.
Bei gattungsgemäßen Vorrichtungen entsprechend der WO-A-9204592 sind die einen Enden der elastisch oder plastisch verformbaren Arme an einem Verbindungskörper befestigt und die anderen, dem Verbindungskörper gegenüber liegenden Enden werden auf das zu tamende Gerät gestellt bzw. auf diesem Gerät befestigt. Bei elastisch verformbaren Armen sind dabei die dem Verbindungskörper gegenüberliegenden Enden durch Seile miteinander verbunden.In generic devices according to WO-A-9204592, one end of the elastically or plastically deformable arms is attached to a connecting body and the other ends opposite the connecting body are placed on the device to be tampered or attached to this device. In the case of elastically deformable arms, the ends opposite the connecting body are connected to one another by ropes.
Eine Vorrichtung mit elastisch verformbaren Tragarmen ist aus der US-A-4 021 974 bekannt.A device with elastically deformable support arms is known from US-A-4 021 974.
Die Handhabung der bekannten Vorrichtungen ist etwas schwierig und es bedarf einiger Übung, die Vorrichtungen zweckentsprechend aufzustellen.The handling of the known devices is somewhat difficult and it takes some practice to set up the devices appropriately.
Die Erfindung hat es sich daher zum Ziel gesetzt, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die bei Beibehaltung aller Vorteile der bekannten Vorrichtungen einfacher zu handhaben ist.The invention therefore has set itself the goal of creating a device of the type mentioned, which is easier to handle while maintaining all the advantages of the known devices.
Erreicht wird dies auf rasche und einfache Weise durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1.This is achieved in a quick and simple manner by the characterizing features of
Die Verbindungskörper können selbst als ein elastisch oder plastisch verformbarer Teil ausgebildet sein. Durch diese Maßnahme können die Gestaltungsvarianten des das Tamnetz oder dergleichen tragenden Gestelles weiter vervielfacht werden.The connecting bodies can themselves be designed as an elastically or plastically deformable part. With this measure, the design variants of the frame carrying the tamnet or the like can be further multiplied.
Es ist aber auch möglich, die Enden der elastisch oder plastisch verformbaren Arme nach Art eines Kreuzgelenkes mit den Verbindungskörpem zu verbinden.However, it is also possible to connect the ends of the elastically or plastically deformable arms to the connecting bodies in the manner of a universal joint.
Zur Beibehaltung bzw. Schaffung einer gewünschten unregelmäßigen Kontur ist es im Rahmen der Erfindung zweckmäßig, wenn zwischen den beiden Verbindungskörpem und/oder einzelnen Armen ein der Länge nach veränderliches Zugorgan, z.B. eine Schnur angeordnet ist. Durch Verändem der Länge dieser Schnur oder der Schnüre kann auch die Gestalt des Gestells und damit des der Tamung dienenden Gebildes verändert werden.In order to maintain or create a desired irregular contour, it is expedient in the context of the invention if a variable length between the two connecting bodies and / or individual arms Tension member, for example a cord is arranged. By changing the length of this cord or cords, the shape of the frame and thus the structure serving the Tamung can also be changed.
Eine besonders rasche Einsatzmöglichkeit einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wird erreicht, wenn an mindestens einem der Arme eine Befestigungslasche oder dergleichen zur Befestigung an dem zu tamenden Gerät angeordnet ist. Es ist damit möglich, die Vorrichtung dauernd am Gerät zu belassen, wobei sie im zusammengelegten Zustand wenig Platz einnimmt. Soll das Gerät getamt werden, genügt praktisch das Anziehen an einem der Arme oder an der die Verbindungskörper verbindenden Schnur, um die Vorrichtung in ihre Wirkstellung zu bringen.A particularly rapid use of a device according to the invention is achieved if a fastening strap or the like for fastening to the device to be tampered is arranged on at least one of the arms. It is thus possible to leave the device on the device permanently, taking up little space when folded. If the device is to be tuned, pulling on one of the arms or on the cord connecting the connecting bodies is practically sufficient to bring the device into its operative position.
Es kann dabei auch zweckmäßig sein, wenn das von den elastisch oder plastisch verformbaren Armen getragene Tamnetz mindestens teilweise elastisch ausgebildet ist.It can also be expedient if the tamnet carried by the elastically or plastically deformable arms is at least partially elastic.
Um eine gewünschte unregelmäßige Verformung der elastisch oder plastisch verformbaren Arme zu erreichen, kann es auch vorteilhaft sein, wenn wenigstens ein Teil der Arme über ihre Länge verschiedene Querschnitte aufweist.In order to achieve a desired irregular deformation of the elastically or plastically deformable arms, it can also be advantageous if at least some of the arms have different cross sections over their length.

Gemäß den Fig. 1 und 2 sind elastisch oder plastisch verformbare Arme 1, 1', 1" an ihren Enden je an einem im Beispiel etwa U-förmigen Verbindungskörper 2 schwenkbar befestigt. Dieser Verbindungskörper 2 kann selbst flexibel, also elastisch oder plastisch verformbar sein und bildet die Drehachse für die Arme 1, 1' und 1".1 and 2, elastically or plastically
Bei Festhalten z.B. des Armes 1' und Anziehen am Arm 1" werden sich daher alle Arme 1, 1' und 1" verformen, wobei sich die Verbindungskörper 2 einander nähem. Bei plastisch verformbaren Armen 1, 1', 1" kann dabei z.B. ein Gestell ähnlich Fig. 5 entstehen. Mit einem solchen Gestell kann ein Tamnetz oder dergleichen verbunden werden, sodaß ein unregelmäßig geformter Körper entsteht, der das Gerät, auf dem er angebracht ist, wirkungsvoll tarnt.When holding on e.g. of the arm 1 'and tightening on the
Statt der Anordnung nach den Fig. 1 und 2, bei der die Arme 1, 1' und 1" nur um jeweils eine Achse drehbar sind, kann auch eine Anordnung gewählt werden, bei der nach Art eines Kreuzgelenkes die Arme 1 um zwei zueinander senkrecht stehende Achsen schwenkbar sind, und zwar mittels der das Verbindungsstück 2 umgebenden Hülsen 3 in einer Ebene und mittels der dazu senkrecht stehenden Achse 4 in der anderen Ebene.Instead of the arrangement according to FIGS. 1 and 2, in which the
In den Fig. 4 und 5 ist dargestellt, daß einer der Arme 1 mittels einer Befestigungslasche 6 an dem zu tamenden Gerät 5 befestigt ist. In der in Fig. 4 dargestellten Ruhelage liegen die Arme 1 aneinander und stören den Betrieb des Gerätes 5 praktisch nicht. Es können ohne weiteres mehrere Vorrichtungen mit Armen 1 und Verbindungskörpem 2 am Gerät 5 befestigt werden.4 and 5 show that one of the
Bei einer Verformung durch Anziehen an dem der Befestigungslasche 6 gegenüberliegenden Arm und willkürlichem Verformen der Arme wird, wie bereits ausgeführt wurde, eine wirkungsvolle Tamung des Gerätes 5 erreicht.In the event of deformation by tightening on the arm opposite the
Gemäß Fig. 6 ist dieses Gerät ein Kettenfahrzeug 7, an dem mittels der Befestigungslasche 6 eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung befestigt ist. Bei diesem Beispiel wird die Endstellung der auseinander gezogenen Arme durch Schnüre 8 bestimmt, sodaß im Beispiel die rechte Kette des Kettenfahrzeuges 7 wenigstens teilweise durch die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung abgedeckt wird.6, this device is a tracked
In Fig. 7 ist veranschaulicht, daß, insbesondere bei Verwendung von elastisch verformbaren Armen durch den gezielten Einsatz von Verbindungsschnüren eine unregelmäßige Form des zum Tragen des Tamnetzes bestimmten Gestelles erzwungen werden kann. Im gezeichneten Beispiel werden die beiden Verbindungskörper 2 durch eine Schnur 9 zueinander gezogen. An dieser Schnur 9 greift eine Schnur 10 an, die den Arm 1 a verformt. Eine weitere Schnur 11 verformt den Arm 1b.FIG. 7 illustrates that, in particular when using elastically deformable arms, an irregular shape of the frame intended for carrying the tamnet can be forced through the targeted use of connecting cords. In the example shown, the two connecting
Gemäß den Figuren 8 und 9 sind elastisch oder plastisch verformbare Arme 1a an ihren Enden über Gelenkverbindungen 12 an scheibenförmigen Verbindungskörpem 13 befestigt, die einen nicht unbedingt erforderlichen umlaufenden Verstärkungswulst 14 aufweisen. Diese Verbindungskörper 13 können selbst flexibel, also elastisch oder plastisch verformbar sein, und bilden die Drehachse für die Arme 1a.According to FIGS. 8 and 9, elastically or plastically
Beim Festhalten z.B. eines Armes 1a und Anziehen an einem anderen Arm werden sich daher alle Arme 1a verformen, wobei sich die Verbindungskörper 13 einander nähem.When holding on e.g. of an
Die Arme 1a können jedoch nicht nur nach der Seite der Gelenksverbindungen 12 hin, sondem auch nach der anderen Seite verformt werden. Da diese über den Rand des Verbindungskörpers 13 gebogen werden müssen, ergibt sich zwangsläufig ein anderes Aussehen des dabei entstehendes Gebildes. Über ein solches Gestell kann ein Tamnetz od. dgl. geworfen werden, sodaß ein unregelmäßig geformter Körper entsteht, der das Gerät, auf dem es angebracht ist, wirkungsvoll tarnt.However, the
Gemäß Fig. 10 sind an einem Arm 1a mittels einer Halterungsvorrichtung 18 federähnliche Elemente 17 angebracht Dadurch wird bei Wind od. dgl. eine Bewegung in die Tamvorrichtung gebracht. Starre Körper können von einem Beobachter viel leichter erkannt werden, als sich bewegende. Es ist auch möglich, bei einer Verwendung als Scheinkörper, die den Angreifer täuschen soll, die Attrappe mit blinkenden oder auffälligen Gamierungen zu versehen, um so das Vorhandensein eines zu zerstörenden Körpers vorzutäuschen.According to FIG. 10, spring-
Am Arm 1a sind weiters über ein Verbindungsstück 19 zwei durch eine Feder verbundene Stangenteile 20 und 20' angelenkt. Diese Stangenteile sind mit einer zusätzlichen Gamierung 21 versehen.Furthermore, two
Um auch eine Verwendung auf Rohren zu ermöglichen, ist der Verbindungskörper, wie aus den Fig. 11 bis 14 ersichtlich, in einer weiteren Ausführungsform als ein am Rohr 24 verschiebbarer Ring 22 ausgebildet. Dieser Ring 22 ist gemäß den Fig. 13 und 14 mit einem Verschluß 23 zum Öffnen versehen. Um unterschiedlichen Größen von Rohren 24 gerecht zu werden, kann der Verschluß 23 mit einer Feder 24 ausgestattet sein (Fig. 14).In order to also enable use on pipes, the connecting body, as can be seen from FIGS. 11 to 14, is designed in a further embodiment as a
Fig. 11 zeigt eine gegenständliche Tamvorrichtung in ihrer Tamstellung, Fig. 12 hingegen in ihrer Ruhestellung. Es ist ohne weiteres ersichtlich, daß es nur weniger Handgriffe bedarf, um die Tamvorrichtung in ihre Ruheposition zu bringen.FIG. 11 shows a tam device in its tam position, FIG. 12, however, in its rest position. It is readily apparent that only a few steps are required to bring the tam device into its rest position.
