Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for Tamung military devices according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the ends opposite the connecting body are connected to one another by ropes.
  • a device with elastically deformable support arms is known from US-A-4 021 974.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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;
  • Figure 3 is a view of part of a differently shaped connecting body.
  • 4 shows the diagrammatic top view of a device which is mounted on a device illustrated by a surface, the device being in the folded state;
  • 5 shows a device attached to a device in the extended state;
  • 6 shows the schematic representation of a device attached to a tracked vehicle;
  • FIG. 7 is a top view of a device illustrating the use of cords; 8 shows a further embodiment of the invention in a diagram; 9 shows a disk-shaped connecting body on an enlarged scale; 10 tam aids attached to an arm; 11 shows an embodiment of the invention with rings which can be enlarged and reduced in size on a tube in its tam position; FIG. 12 shows the embodiment according to FIG. 6 in its rest position; 13 and 14 on an enlarged scale embodiments of rings which can be enlarged and reduced; 15 shows a locking device in two positions; 16 the tam body with the locking device in one Intermediate position.
  • the tamnet or the like is omitted in all the figures in order to make the structure of the frame essential for the tam effect easier to see.
  • elastically or plastically deformable arms 1, 1 ', 1 " are each pivotally attached at their ends to an approximately U-shaped connecting body 2 in this example.
  • This connecting body 2 can itself be flexible, that is to say elastically or plastically deformable and forms the axis of rotation for the arms 1, 1 'and 1 ".
  • an arrangement can also be selected in which the arms 1 are mutually perpendicular by two in the manner of a universal joint standing axes are pivotable, namely by means of the sleeves 3 surrounding the connecting piece 2 in one plane and by means of the axis 4 which is perpendicular thereto in the other plane.
  • this device is a tracked vehicle 7, to which a device according to the invention is fastened by means of the fastening tab 6.
  • the end position of the extended arms is determined by cords 8, so that in the example the right chain of the tracked vehicle 7 is at least partially covered by the device according to the invention.
  • 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.
  • the two connecting bodies 2 are pulled towards one another by a cord 9.
  • a cord 9 attacks a cord 10 that deforms the arm 1 a.
  • Another cord 11 deforms the arm 1b.
  • elastically or plastically deformable arms 1a are fastened at their ends via articulated connections 12 to disk-shaped connecting bodies 13 which have a circumferential reinforcing bead 14 which is not absolutely necessary.
  • These connecting bodies 13 can themselves be flexible, that is to say elastically or plastically deformable, and form the axis of rotation for the arms 1a.
  • the arms 1 a can not only be deformed on the side of the articulated connections 12, but also on the other side. Since these have to be bent over the edge of the connecting body 13, the resulting structure inevitably has a different appearance. A tamnet or the like can be thrown over such a frame, so that an irregularly shaped body is created which effectively camouflages the device on which it is attached.
  • spring-like elements 17 are attached to an arm 1a by means of a holding device 18.
  • a movement is brought into the tam device in the event of wind or the like.
  • Rigid bodies can be recognized much more easily by an observer than moving ones.
  • rod parts 20 and 20 'connected by a spring are articulated on the arm 1a via a connecting piece 19. These rod parts are provided with an additional gating 21.
  • the connecting body is designed in a further embodiment as a ring 22 which can be displaced on the pipe 24. 13 and 14, this ring 22 is provided with a closure 23 for opening. In order to accommodate different sizes of pipes 24, the closure 23 can be equipped with a spring 24 (FIG. 14).
  • 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.
  • the shape change of the arms 1a is brought about by rods 25 articulated on the arms, which engage on a ring 26 at their ends opposite the arms.
  • the ring 26 is provided with a holding pin 27 which, e.g. can be pulled into an opening 29 of the connecting body 13 'by means of a cord 28.
  • the arms 1a are locked.
  • the tam device can be returned to its rest position by pressing the holding pin 27.
