Description
Le domaine technique de la présente invention est celui des revêtements pare-éclats que l'on place derrière la paroi d'un véhicule blindé afin de diminuer sa vulnérabilité.The technical field of the present invention is that of the splinter coatings that we place behind the wall of an armored vehicle to decrease his vulnerability.
Les revêtements pare-éclats sont essentiellement utilisés actuellement dans des véhicules blindés de transport de troupes ou de combat d'infanterie. Leur fonction est de diminuer l'angle du cône d'éclats engendrés lors de la perforation du blindage du véhicule par un projectile anti-char à énergie cinétique (projectile flèche) ou surtout à jet de charge creuse. Eu égard au domaine technique concerné, on comprend qù'il existe très peu de données bibliographiques décrivant ces revêtements.The splinter coatings are mainly used today in vehicles armored personnel carriers or combat vehicles Infantry. Their function is to decrease the angle of the cone of flakes generated during the perforation of the armored vehicle with anti-tank projectile kinetic energy (arrow projectile) or especially jet of hollow charge. Having regard to the technical field concerned, we understands that there is very little data bibliographies describing these coatings.
On sait toutefois qu'on peut disposer un panneau composite à matrice organique et fibres organiques (aramide ou polyéthylène) ou minérales (verre) distant de 100 à 360 mm environ de la paroi interne du véhicule. Le principal inconvénient de cette solution réside dans son encombrement relativement important conduisant à une forte réduction du volume interne du véhicule.We know, however, that we can have a composite panel with organic matrix and fibers organic (aramid or polyethylene) or mineral (glass) distant from 100 to 360 mm from the internal wall of the vehicle. The main disadvantage of this solution lies in its relatively large size leading to a sharp reduction in the internal volume of the vehicle.
On connaít également une autre technologie consistant à placer contre la paroi interne du véhicule une plaque en matériau organique massif (polyéthylène par exemple) de 50 mm d'épaisseur environ, qui absorbe partiellement les éclats produits par la paroi. Par contre, elle engendre par son agression des éclats secondaires indétectables dans le corps humain par des radiographies.We also know another technology consisting of placing against the internal wall of the vehicle a plate of solid organic material (polyethylene by example) about 50 mm thick, which absorbs partially the fragments produced by the wall. Through against, it generates by its aggression shards undetectable in the human body by radiographs.
On connaít le brevet US-A-5 200 256 décrivant un assemblage multicouches destiné à arrêter des projectiles d'armes à feu de petit ou moyen calibre, constitué d'une première couche d'acier, suivie d'une couche d'un matériau composite, d'une maille métallique et enfin d'une couche de mousse appliquée sur la structure. Ce revêtement est placé à l'extérieur de la structure et constitue le blindage lui-même et non pas un revêtement pare-éclats.We know the patent US-A-5,200,256 describing a multilayer assembly intended to stop small and medium caliber firearms, consisting of a first layer of steel, followed by a layer of composite material, metallic mesh and finally a layer of foam applied to the structure. This coating is placed outside the structure and constitutes the shielding itself and not a splinter-proof coating.
On connaít également le brevet WO-A-91 00490 qui décrit un assemblage multicouches également destiné à arrêter des projectiles de petit et moyen calbre de manière analogue au brevet précédent.We also know the patent WO-A-91 00490 which describes a multilayer assembly also intended for stop small and medium caliber projectiles from analogous to the previous patent.
On connaít encore le brevet EP-A- 0 588 212 concernant un revêtement pare-éclats du type massif, disposé comme dans l'invention contre la paroi interne d'une structure. Le revêtement décrit comprend cependant plusieurs couches réalisées à partir des mêmes constituants, c'est-à-dire une matrice organique dans laquelle on incorpore des particules de tungstène. L'impédance au choc des couches est décroissante, autrement dit la sous-couche placée contre la structure possède une valeur élevée proche de celle de la structure elle-même.We still know the patent EP-A- 0 588 212 concerning a solid type splinter-proof coating, arranged as in the invention against the internal wall of a structure. The coating described, however, includes several layers made from the same constituents, i.e. an organic matrix in which incorporates tungsten particles. The impedance to the shock of the layers is decreasing, in other words the underlay placed against the structure has a high value close to that of the structure herself.
Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un revêtement pare-éclats allégé, offrant une efficacité équivalente à celle des revêtement massifs, mais avec une épaisseur fortement réduite, à l'aide de matériaux présentant une densité très inférieure à celle des métaux.The object of the present invention is to offer a lightened splinter coating, offering a efficiency equivalent to that of solid coatings, but with a greatly reduced thickness, using materials with a density much lower than that metals.
L'invention a donc pour objet un revêtement pare-éclats pour véhicule blindé comportant notamment une couche adhérente de matériau organique massif disposée contre la paroi interne du véhicule, une couche adjacente d'un matériau composite à matrice organique et renfort minéral ou organique placée à proximité immédiate de la couche adhérente, caractérisé en ce qu'on intercale entre la couche adhérente et la couche adjacente une zone de dispersion d'épaisseur comprise entre environ 5 et 30 mm remplie d'un fluide liquide ou gazeux, ou d'une mousse polystyrène ou polyuréthane. The subject of the invention is therefore a splinter-proof coating for armored vehicles comprising in particular a layer adherent of solid organic material arranged against the inner wall of the vehicle, an adjacent layer of a composite material with organic matrix and mineral reinforcement or organic placed in the immediate vicinity of the layer adherent, characterized in that it is inserted between the adherent layer and the adjacent layer an area of thickness dispersion between about 5 and 30 mm filled with a liquid or gaseous fluid, or a foam polystyrene or polyurethane.
Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, la couche adhérente de matériau organique massif est choisie dans le groupe constitué par le polyéthylène, le polypropylène, une plaque de filaments de polyéthylène ou d'aramide, un caoutchouc, et présentant une épaisseur comprise entre 2 et 45 mm.According to a characteristic of the invention, the adherent layer of solid organic material is chosen in the group consisting of polyethylene, the polypropylene, a plate of polyethylene filaments or of aramid, a rubber, and having a thickness between 2 and 45 mm.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le revêtement pare-éclats comprend une couche absorbante de particules choisie dans le groupe constitué par un matériau composite à matrice et liant organiques et un film plastique d'épaisseur comprise entre environ 1 et 5 mm.According to another characteristic of the invention, the splinter-proof coating comprises a absorbent layer of particles chosen from the group consisting of a matrix and binder composite material organic and a plastic film of thickness included between about 1 and 5 mm.
Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la couche adjacente présente une épaisseur comprise entre environ 2 et 30 mm.According to one embodiment of the invention, the layer adjacent has a thickness of between about 2 and 30 mm.
Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel de l'invention, le revêtement pare-éclats comprend :
- une couche adhérente de polyéthylène de 25 mm d'épaisseur,
- une zone de dispersion de 10 mm d'épaisseur,
- une couche adjacente d'un matériau composite à matrice organique renforcée par des fibres de verre, de 30 mm d'épaisseur, et
- une couche absorbante de polyéthylène bi-étiré de 2 mm d'épaisseur.
- an adhesive layer of polyethylene 25 mm thick,
- a 10 mm thick dispersion zone,
- an adjacent layer of an organic matrix composite material reinforced with glass fibers, 30 mm thick, and
- an absorbent layer of
bi-stretched polyethylene 2 mm thick.
Selon un second mode de réalisation de l'invention, le revêtement pare-éclats comprend :
- une couche adhérente de polyéthylène de 30 mm d'épaisseur,
- une couche adjacente d'un matériau composite à matrice organique renforcée par des fibres de verre de 35 mm d'épaisseur, et
- une couche absorbante de polyéthylène bi-étiré de 5 mm d'épaisseur.
- an adherent layer of polyethylene 30 mm thick,
- an adjacent layer of an organic matrix composite material reinforced with glass fibers 35 mm thick, and
- an absorbent layer of bi-stretched polyethylene 5 mm thick.
Selon une autre variante de réalisation, le revêtement pare-éclats comprend :
- une couche adhérente constituée d'une première sous-couche de polyéthylène de 15 mm d'épaisseur environ et d'une seconde sous-couche de composite à matrice organique de 10 mm d'épaisseur environ,
- une zone de dispersion de 10 mm d'épaisseur environ remplie de mousse polyuréthane,
- une couche adjacente d'un matériau composite à matrice organique renforcée par des fibres de verre de 35 mm d'épaisseur environ, et
- une couche absorbante de polyéthylène bi-étiré de 5 mm d'épaisseur environ.
- an adherent layer consisting of a first polyethylene sublayer approximately 15 mm thick and a second organic matrix composite sublayer approximately 10 mm thick,
- a dispersion zone of approximately 10 mm thick filled with polyurethane foam,
- an adjacent layer of an organic matrix composite material reinforced with glass fibers approximately 35 mm thick, and
- an absorbent layer of bi-stretched polyethylene approximately 5 mm thick.
Un avantage de la présente invention réside dans l'absorption des éclats engendrés au cours de la perforation de la paroi du véhicule sans production d'éclats secondaires et simultanément la réduction ou la suppression totale du phénomène d'écaillage au niveau de la face opposée de la structure à l'agression.An advantage of the present invention lies in absorbing the splinters generated during the perforation of the vehicle wall without production secondary flakes and simultaneously reducing or total suppression of the phenomenon of flaking at the opposite side of the structure to the attack.
Un autre avantage réside dans la diminution de l'encombrement du revêtement à l'intérieur du véhicule.Another advantage is the reduction in the size of the coating inside the vehicle.
Un autre avantage réside dans la capacité du revêtement selon l'invention à diminuer le flux neutronique, et à absorber le flux thermique transmis par les éclats du projectile portés à haute température pour assurer par là-même un effet ignifuge.Another advantage is the capacity of the coating according to the invention to reduce the neutron flux, and absorb the heat flux transmitted by them projectile fragments brought to high temperature to thereby ensuring a flame retardant effect.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaítront plus clairement à la lecture du complément de description donné ci-après à titre indicatif en relation avec un dessin annexé sur lequel les figures 1 à 3 sont des vues en coupe du revêtement selon l'invention.Other features and benefits of the invention will appear more clearly on reading the additional description given below as indicative in relation to an attached drawing on which Figures 1 to 3 are sectional views of the coating according to the invention.
Sur la figure 1, on a représenté en coupe la
paroi 1 d'un véhicule blindé ou d'une structure
quelconque engendrant des éclats lorsqu'elle est
endommagée par un projectile venant de l'extérieur comme
cela est symbolisé par la flèche F. On place derrière
cette paroi 1, c'est-à-dire du côté intérieur, une
première couche 2 adhérente constituée d'un matériau
connu choisi dans le groupe constitué par le
polyéthylène, le polypropylène, une plaque de filaments
de polyéthylène ou d'aramide, un caoutchouc. L'adhésion
peut par exemple être réalisée par collage à l'aide d'une
colle ou par boulonnage. L'épaisseur de cette couche 2
est avantageusement comprise entre 5 et 45 mm. La
fonction de cette couche, en raison de l'épaisseur
particulière choisie, est de limiter et/ou d'arrêter les
gros éclats produits derrière la paroi 1 et d'obtenir une
première réduction de l'angle de dispersion des éclats de
cette paroi blindée. Le cas échéant, cette couche 2
assure une diminution du flux neutronique à l'intérieur
du véhicule en cas d'agression nucléaire. Lorsque la
couche 2 se présente sous la forme d'une plaque de
filaments organiques de polyéthylène ou d'aramide, on
joue sur la grande capacité de déformation dynamique de
ce matériau.In Figure 1, there is shown in section the
wall 1 of an armored vehicle or structure
any splinters when it is
damaged by a projectile coming from outside as
this is symbolized by the arrow F. We place behind
this wall 1, that is to say on the inside, a
first
Cette première couche est suivie d'une couche
adjacente 3 qui en combinaison avec la couche 2 arrête
les éclats secondaires engendrés par la première couche
et réduit encore l'angle de dispersion des éclats de la
paroi blindée 1. Cette couche 3 est constituée d'un
matériau composite à matrice organique et renfort minéral
d'une épaisseur comprise entre 5 et 30 mm. La combinaison
des effets des couches 2 et 3 permet d'atteindre avec une
épaisseur nettement diminuée une efficacité équivalente
voire supérieure à chacune de ces couches prises
isolément, mais avec un encombrement nettement plus
important.This first layer is followed by a layer
adjacent 3 which in combination with
L'efficacité de ces deux couches 2 et 3 est
complétée par une troisième couche 4, dite couche
absorbante, pour limiter la projection de microparticules
de verre nocives pour l'organisme humain à l'intérieur du
véhicule ou de la structure lors de la perforation. Cette
couche 4 est constituée par les matériaux composites à
matrice organique et liant organique et/ou un film
plastique à hautes caractéristiques mécaniques tel le
polyéthylène bi-étiré. L'épaisseur de cette couche 4 est
faible par rapport à celle des deux autres, par exemple
de 1 à 5 mm. Cette couche 4 est appliquée, par exemple
par collage, sur la couche 3.The effectiveness of these two
On peut améliorer encore la performance du
revêtement pare-éclats selon l'invention, en espaçant
suivant la figure 2, les couches 2 et 3 de façon à créer
une couche ou zone de dispersion 5 des éclats. Cette
couche 5 peut être un gaz ou un liquide, une mousse de
polystyrène ou de polyuréthane, d'épaisseur comprise
entre 5 et 30 mm environ. La présence de cette couche 5
est conditionnée par le niveau de menace que l'on désire
réduire.We can further improve the performance of the
splinter-proof coating according to the invention, spacing
according to figure 2,
A titre d'illustration, on a réalisé les deux
configurations suivantes :
Des essais contre les perforations avec une charge creuse de gros calibre ont permis de constater que le revêtement a d'épaisseur 67 mm et le revêtement b d'épaisseur 70 mm avaient une efficacité équivalente à celle des revêtements connus d'encombrement beaucoup plus important et conforme aux performances recherchées.Tests against perforations with a large gauge hollow charge have shown that the coating a of thickness 67 mm and the coating b of thickness 70 mm had an effectiveness equivalent to that of the known coatings of much larger dimensions and conforms to the desired performance.
La figure 3 illustre une variante de
réalisation du revêtement pare-éclats dans laquelle la
couche 2 est remplacée par deux sous-couches 2a et 2b. La
sous-couche 2b est de même nature que la couche 2
antérieure, c'est-à-dire qu'elle est constituée par du
polyéthylène, du polypropylène, une plaque de filaments
de polyéthylène ou d'aramide, un caoutchouc. Ce matériau
présente une bonne impédance au choc. Elle peut présenter
une épaisseur comprise entre 2 et 30 mm. La sous-couche
2b est constituée par un composite à matrice organique
avec des renforts de fibres minérales ou organiques.
L'épaisseur de cette couche 2b est de l'ordre de 2 à 20
mm. La couche 5 qui constitue une zone de dispersion peut
être constituée par une mousse polystyrène ou
polyuréthane. Les deux autres couches 3 et 4 restent
identiques aux précédentes.Figure 3 illustrates a variant of
realization of the splinter-proof coating in which the
A titre d'illustration, on a réalisé un revêtement pare-éclats comprenant :
- couche 2a : 15 mm de caoutchouc,
- couche 2b : 10 mm de composite,
- couche 5 : 10 mm de mousse de polyuréthane,
- couche 3 : 30 mm de composite,
- couche 4 : 2 mm de polyéthylène bi-étiré.
- layer 2a: 15 mm of rubber,
-
layer 2b: 10 mm of composite, - layer 5: 10 mm of polyurethane foam,
- layer 3: 30 mm of composite,
- layer 4: 2 mm of bi-stretched polyethylene.
Les essais contre les perforations avec une charge creuse ont montré l'excellent comportement du revêtement pare-éclats obtenu.Puncture tests with a shaped charge have shown the excellent behavior of the splinter-proof coating obtained.
De façon générale, on note l'effet ignifuge du revêtement selon l'invention qui ne prend pas feu sous l'effet des éclats du projectile portés à haute température. Cet effet technique est dû à l'absence d'oxygène au sein du revêtement, au choix particulier de la nature des couches et à la bonne adhérence entre ces couches.In general, we note the flame retardant effect of coating according to the invention which does not catch fire under the effect of high-powered projectile shards temperature. This technical effect is due to the absence oxygen within the coating, at the particular choice of the nature of the layers and the good adhesion between these layers.
