Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of sighting or score. It relates more particularly to a device capable of determining the direction of a target in a predefined coordinate system, device of the type comprising sighting means and means for processing signals from the sighting means, these processing means being able to determine the direction between the means of aim and target and to transmit them to visualization means or to means exteriors.
  • patent EP5575591 describes a device capable of determine the orientation of a body with respect to a reference orientation, and includes a mobile orientation unit and a reference sensor unit, each of them comprising a gyroscopic unit with three axes, a unit of calculation receiving the measurement values of the aforementioned units, and an output unit.
  • Such devices exist and use field sensors magnetic.
  • binoculars sold under the brand LEICA, are suitable for determine the site and azimuth of a target and give complete satisfaction when they are used in free space.
  • their use is not possible in a environment with magnetic disturbances.
  • Other devices consist in analyzing electrostatic fields or even electromagnetic and, by reading their cartography, to determine the position and direction of a target.
  • the devices give satisfaction in perfectly environments known and of small dimensions. They are however heavy to implement and do not do not support changes in the electrical environment.
  • the device for determining the direction of a target comprises a mobile sighting device provided with two integrated inertial gyroscopes, means for registration in solidarity with the helicopter equipped with two gyroscopes and means enslavement of the direction of the weapon according to the information provided by the gyroscopes.
  • the registration means are used to block the four gyroscopes in a first reference position to define a reference. When the means of aiming are released from the registration means, the four gyroscopes are released. The pair of gyroscopes integrated into the registration means then rotates according to the helicopter movements.
  • the pair of gyroscopes integrated into the sighting device rotates according to the movements of the helicopter and the movements of the shooter wielding the sighting device.
  • the weapon is directed in real time towards the target in function of the difference in rotation between the two pairs of gyroscopes.
  • This device has many drawbacks.
  • the shooter is obliged to maintain the aiming means permanently in the direction of the target, and this until weapon system firing which limits firing capabilities and leaves the helicopter vulnerable in the presence of several targets.
  • the two gyros of the sighting means transmit to the processing means successions of signal variations resulting in an accumulation of measurement errors which affects the accuracy of the determining the direction of the target.
  • One of the aims of the invention is to propose a light and handy device, suitable to determine, precisely and quickly, the site and the azimuth of a target and usable what whatever the type of environment.
  • the proposed solution is a device capable of determining the direction of a target in a predefined reference frame and of the type comprising sighting means comprising a sighting device and control means, means for resetting these sighting means and means for processing signals from the sighting means, these processing means being able to determine the direction between the means of aim and target and to transmit them to visualization means or to means exterior, device characterized in that the sighting means further comprise along three axes substantially perpendicular to each other, three gyrometers, and in that the control means control the transmission to display means or external means, values representative of the direction between the sighting means and the target.
  • the device comprises three optical gyrometers, for example fiber optic.
  • the sighting means include elements capable of cooperating with elements of the registration means.
  • the first elements are constituted by three plates, one hollowed out by a cone, the second comprising a plane, while that the other elements are constituted by spikes of conical shape.
  • the processing means include a source power supply and means of calculation and information management putting implement software performing several functions.
  • the software also performs a function for viewing the operational state of the elements of the invention.
  • Patents EP717264 and EP496172 describe methods for correcting gyrometric biases as well as the means of their implementation.
  • the first concerns the correction of gyrometric biases on an aircraft and the second, on a vehicle. In both cases, the gyroscopic calibration is carried out when the aircraft or vehicle is in the stationary position.
  • One of the aims of the invention is to propose a method for processing signals from gyroscopes giving good results and not requiring powerful signal processing means.
  • the solution consists in proposing a data integration process gyroscopic consisting of performing successively, from the values gyroscopic obtained between a time to and a time t1, first calculations with complex modeling that cannot, given the processing capacity of processing means, operating in real time but giving precise results, then from the gyroscopic values obtained between time t1 and time t2, second calculations with simplified modeling and capable of being implemented in real time.
  • the software also performs a function of correction of the gyrometer drift between two successive readjustments.
  • the sighting means comprise at minus a temperature sensor.
  • the means of the invention presented in Figure 1 include means of aiming 10, registration means 20, signal processing means 30, display means 40, external means 50.60.
  • the sighting means 10 comprise means 11 having the shape of a pistol.
  • the core 12 of the latter is a precision support of light material, for example machined aluminum, on which are positioned on the one hand a sighting member 13, and on the other hand along three axes substantially perpendicular to each other compared to the others, three optical gyroscopes 14 1 , 14 2 , 14 3 .
  • these gyros are fiber optic gyros. They make it possible to obtain high accuracy of measurements, their drift is low, they support rapid movements and can be used in any environment.
  • the sighting member 13 is constituted by a viewfinder of the C-More brand which projects a crosshair to infinity, allowing aiming without parallax error.
  • the first 15 1 located at the end of the barrel, is hollowed out with a cone; the second 15 2 is located above the butt and has a groove; The third 15 3 placed at the bottom of the stick has a plane.
  • Ports are machined in the gun to house electrical systems and the three measurement gyros.
  • the plans on which they are based, and which determine their axis of rotation are machined to ensure their perfect perpendicularity.
  • These sighting means further comprise means of transmission control constituted by a switch 16 appearing under the form of a pistol trigger.
  • the registration means 20, shown in Figure 3, are fixed to the ship and are composed of a support in the form of a rectangular box 21 having a cover 22 pivoting about an axis 23.
  • This box contains a sheath 24 which matches the shape of the sighting means 10.
  • the internal surface of the face 22 has three fixed conical spikes 25 1 , 25 2 , 25 3 arranged so that each of them cooperates with one of the three removable plates fixed on the sighting means in order to ensure a very precise positioning of the latter in the registration means, the precision possibly being of the order of a hundredth of a degree or even higher.
  • These registration means further comprise a switch 26 indicating or not the presence of the sighting means 10.
  • the processing means 30 are portable and include a source stabilized power supply and computing and management resources information implementing software performing several functions.
  • the external means comprise on the one hand means 50 for measuring the attitude (heading, roll, pitch) of the ship, in this case a navigation center, and the latitude of the latter on the surface of the earth.
  • these information is transmitted to the means of the invention by the navigation means of the ship, in the form of data directly usable by the calculation means, by means of a transfer function to take account of the positioning of the navigation center in relation to the registration means.
  • a weapon system 60 which aim is controlled from site and azimuth values determined by means of invention and values specific to the weapon system and its location on the ship.
  • This attitude can be expressed in different benchmarks, depending on the needs of the system that will use the sighting information.
  • It can in particular be an absolute benchmark, whose axes are east geographic, geographic north and vertical of the location, or a landmark related to the ship.
  • the sighting means 10 When the sighting means 10 are positioned in the registration support 20, their position is perfectly known in an absolute benchmark knowing on the one hand the position of the registration support on the ship (6 degrees of freedom) and on the other position of the vessel in the geographical reference linked to its quiet point (course, roll, pitch and latitude). This information is transmitted to the processing means 30 by the ship's navigation center.
  • the command to release the sighting means from its registration support 20 triggers the integration of the three incremental angles along each of the three axes linked to sighting means 10.
  • This integration is done in a Galilean reference linked to the registration support 20, in the position where it was at the time of the extraction of the sighting means 10.
  • the attitude of the device is therefore known at all times with respect to this benchmark Galilean.
  • attitude of the aiming means must be in conformity with the needs of external resources 60.
  • this compliance requires two steps.
  • the first consists in calculating the attitude of the sighting means in a benchmark geographic centered on the registration support 20, at the time of use of information. This calculation takes into account the Earth's rotation and the time since the last registration.
  • the second consists in expressing the attitude in the operating benchmark, in the occurrence the weapon system benchmark.
  • This mark can be located several tens of meters from the support of registration, and therefore the parallax error may not be negligible, especially if the objects concerned are close, these objects being able to be swimmers or light boats.
  • This filtering can be of the low pass type or a KALMANN type filter in order to take into account target changes in a given template without having a train.
  • the initial attitude is determined mechanically. Before any objective designation, the aiming instrument is at rest in the registration means, so that its position is known and reproducible. The precision of this position is acquired by three fixed positioning pins 25 1 , 25 2 , 25 3 in this support and which are inserted successively in one of the plates placed on the sighting means. The six degrees of freedom being thus determined with great precision, the initial attitude of the sighting instrument is perfectly known.
  • the positioning of the sighting means in the registration means is carried out in two stages.
  • the first consists in positioning the sighting means in the sheath 24: it constitutes a positioning which can be described as coarse while the second consists in positioning the sighting means by successively plugging in one of the three pins in the one of the three plates: positioning is thus obtained to the nearest hundredth of a degree.
  • the precise positioning of the sighting means takes place automatically when the cover 22 of the box 21 is closed.
  • the software implemented by the processing means 30 has the mission of process the raw data provided by the sighting instrument, a device that allows the operator of the means according to the invention, by targeting a target, of determining its site and its azimuth.
  • the objective designation function takes place continuously when the instrument sighting is in operational mode, that is to say outside of the registration support. It is required that the minimum gyroscopic data processing time, for example of the order of a few milliseconds, in order to be able to process the maximum of data coming out of the gyrometers, and thus better follow the evolution of the increments angles and angles which are deduced therefrom, in order to limit the error during processing. Depending on the size of the angle increments from the gyros, a modeling is implemented to overcome as much as possible the limits of commutativity of rotations in space.
  • the integration of the gyrometric data is done in the absolute reference of the registration support in to.
  • we ends the treatment taking into account the Earth's rotation which has been measured in known by the gyros since the beginning of the treatment. For that we place our in the absolute benchmark of the registration support at t, instant of aiming, then we deduce the site and the absolute azimuth of the sighting instrument relative to the building.
  • the transmission function is very simple, since it consists in sending the calculated values of site and the azimuth in the absolute coordinate system of the building at time t, to a memory and to the weapon system and / or to the display means for display.
  • This function is triggered by the passage of switch 16 from the position open to the closed position. It is accompanied by the emission of an audible signal and / or a light signal and the display of positive information on the means of viewing.
  • the output values are: to, uo, vo, wo the position vectors of the aiming instrument to to, as well as Du.
  • the processing of the input data is carried out as follows:
  • the calculations during processing are done in the absolute benchmark of the building (and registration support) to, instant of the last registration.
  • the purpose of registration is therefore to determine the new starting vectors of the integral in the absolute coordinate system of the registration support in to.
  • the site and the azimuth are calculated using the aiming vector determined by the gyrometric measurements and integration during operational mode.
  • switch 16 closes, and the variable trigger changes from 0 to 1 on the screen.
  • the implementation of the means of the invention is carried out by an operator.
  • the latter sees a target, it removes the sighting means 10 from the means of registration 20 then it points, using the sighting member 13, the means 10 in the direction of the target and presses the switch 16 when it considers that they are correctly positioned relative to the target. Therefore the means 30 calculate the site and the azimuth of the target and transmit these values to the weapon system which controls the orientation of the weapon according to these values and the variations in attitude of the ship from said transmission of values, these variations being, as previously mentioned, determined by means 50.
  • the shooter can target another target and press the switch 16.
  • the means 30 then calculate the site and the azimuth of the new target and transmit these values to the weapon system which stores in memory said values and can direct the weapon towards this new target immediately after firing in the direction of the first target.
  • the shooter can successively target several targets in a minimum of time, without having to wait for the end of the firing sequence which optimizes the total time required for the corresponding shots and thus reduces the vulnerability of the boat.
  • the shooter can, after acquiring the target (s), achieve additional tasks or moving around without the weapon system reacting to his movements.
  • the acquisition of gyros is done with a step Dt between 5 ms and 100 ms. These values are integrated and it is known to model this integration in order to get accurate results. However, with portable computing means, it is not not possible to perform calculations in real time.
  • One of the objects of the invention is to remedy this problem by proposing an integration process consisting of performing successively, from the gyroscopic values obtained between time to and time t1, first calculations with complex modeling that cannot operate in real time but giving precise results, then from the values gyroscopic obtained between time t1 and time t2, second calculations with simplified modeling capable of being implemented in real time.
  • box 21 can be replaced by a device comprising actuators, for example of the electromechanical or pneumatic type.
  • the sighting means 10 are placed in a holder of the case type. Therefore they are roughly positioned within a few degrees.
  • the sighting means can be applied to a helmet, such as that described in US Pat. No. 4,722,601, to a headband or to binoculars and the software may include a self-adaptive algorithm for calculating the drift of gyros.
  • the three plates may each include a slot, or the means may also comprise four plates, two of which having a slit, the third has a stop and the fourth forms a plane.
