Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Unterkalibergeschoss nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a sub-caliber projectile according to the preamble of claim 1 .

Bei Unterkalibergeschossen, wie beispielsweise aus der EP-A-0 624 774 bekannt, besteht der Treibspiegel in der Regel aus einem Treibspiegelmantel aus Kunststoff und einem Treibspiegelkörper aus Metall. Der Geschosskörper (Penetrator) ist meistens ein Pfeilgeschoss, das mit dem Treibspiegelkörper fest verschraubt ist und dessen mit einem Stabilisierungsflügel versehenes Ende aus dem Heck des Treibspiegels herausragt. Der Treibspiegelmantel und der Treibspiegelkörper sind derart in Segmente unterteilt, dass Sollbruchstellen gebildet werden, womit erreicht wird, dass der Treibspiegelmantel und der Treibspiegelkörper unmittelbar nach dem Abschuss abgeworfen werden.In the case of sub-caliber bullets, as is known for example from EP-A-0 624 774 , the sabot generally consists of a sabot jacket made of plastic and a sabot body made of metal. The projectile body (penetrator) is usually an arrow projectile, which is screwed to the sabot body and whose end provided with a stabilizing wing protrudes from the rear of the sabot. The sabot jacket and the sabot body are divided into segments in such a way that predetermined breaking points are formed, with the result that the sabot jacket and the sabot body are thrown off immediately after the launch.

Mit der EP-A-0 645 600 ist ein abwerfbarer Treibspiegel für ein Unterkalibergeschoss bekannt geworden, der einteilig ausgebildet ist und somit den Treibspiegelmantel und den Treibspiegelkörper in einem Stück vereint, wobei durch den Wegfall eines separaten Treibspiegelkörpers, gegenüber dem vorstehend genannten Stand der Technik Vorteile erzielt werden. EP-A-0 645 600 discloses a detachable sabot for a sub-caliber floor, which is formed in one piece and thus combines the sabot jacket and the sabot body in one piece, with the omission of a separate sabot body compared to the prior art mentioned above Advantages are achieved.

Aus der DE-84 03 719.9-U1 ist ein unterkalibriges Wuchtgeschoss für Übungszwecke bekannt, welches einen Spitzenteil und einen Heckteil aufweist, die unmittelbar miteinander verbunden sind. Das Heckteil besteht aus einer Stahllegierung. Das Spitzenteil besteht aus einem Material, das Partikel, zum Beispiel metallische oder keramische Partikel, enthält und wird durch zerspanende Bearbeitung hergestellt. Das Heckteil besitzt einen nach vorne ragenden zylindrischen Ansatz, der mit einem Aussengewinde versehen ist, und das Spitzenteil weist ein komplementäres Innengewinde auf; im montierten Zustand sind Heckteil und Spitzenteil miteinander verschraubt. Im weiteren wird noch erwähnt, dass das Gewichtsverhältnis Heckteil zu Spitzenteil nicht grösser sondern in der Regel kleiner als 1 ist.From DE-84 03 719.9-U1 a sub-caliber balancing bullet for exercise purposes is known, which has a tip part and a rear part, which are directly connected to each other. The rear part is made of a steel alloy. The tip part consists of a material that contains particles, for example metallic or ceramic particles, and is produced by machining. The rear part has a cylindrical projection projecting forward, which is provided with an external thread, and the tip part has a complementary internal thread; when assembled, the rear section and the tip section are screwed together. It is also mentioned below that the weight ratio of the rear part to the tip part is generally not less than 1.

Aus der BE-840 898-A sind Übungsprojektile, insbesondere für Pistolen, bekannt, welche einen Heckteil aus Stahl und einen Spitzenteil aus schwerem Granulat, beispielsweise Blei, agglomeriert mit Kunstharz, besitzt. Das Heckteil weist einen in das Spitzenteil ragenden zentrierenden Ansatz auf. Heckteil und Spitzenteil sind nicht unmittelbar aneinander befestigt sondern nur in der gemeinsamen Hülse angrenzend aneinander aufgenommen. Das Spitzenteil trennt unter dem Einfluss der vom Drall bewirkten Zentrifugalkräfte sofort nach dem Verlassen des Abschussrohres vom Heckteil und dient im wesentlichen dazu, dem Geschoss in der Abschussphase das erforderliche Gesamtgewicht zu verleihen. Zwar handelt es sich bei dieser Munition nicht um Unterkaliber- bzw. Treibspiegelgeschosse, aber man versucht, und zwar mit Hilfe des Spitzenteils, eine Wirkung zu erreichen, die mit der Wirkung eines Treibspiegels eine gewisse Ähnlichkeit hat.From BE-840 898-A , practice projectiles, in particular for pistols, are known which have a rear part made of steel and a tip part made of heavy granulate, for example lead, agglomerated with synthetic resin. The rear part has a centering extension projecting into the tip part. The rear section and the tip section are not directly attached to each other, but only in the common sleeve adjacent to each other. Under the influence of the centrifugal forces caused by the swirl, the tip part separates from the rear part immediately after leaving the launch tube and essentially serves to give the projectile the required total weight in the launch phase. Although this ammunition is not a sub-caliber or sabot projectile, one tries, with the help of the tip part, to achieve an effect that is somewhat similar to the effect of a sabot.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ausgehend von einem Stand der Technik gemäss der erwähnten DE-84 03 719.9-U1, ein Unterkalibergeschoss vorzuschlagen, das die Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermeidet, und insbesondere als Übungsmunition geeignet ist.The object of the invention is to propose, based on a prior art according to the mentioned DE-84 03 719.9-U1, a lower- caliber bullet that avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and is particularly suitable as practice ammunition.

Diese Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 genannten Merkmale. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des Unterkalibergeschosses sind durch die abhängigen Ansprüche 2 bis 4 definiert.These This object is achieved by the features of the characterizing portion of claim 1. Advantageous further developments of the lower-caliber floor are defined by the dependent claims 2 to 4 .

Beim neuen Unterkalibergeschoss ist das Spitzenteil aus einem mit den Partikeln gefüllten Kunststoff hergestellt. Das Heckteil weist, anders als das Heckteil gemäss der DE-84 03 719.9-U1, nicht ein Gewinde, das als eine Halterille bezeichnet werden könnte, sondern mehrere echte, voneinander getrennte Halterillen auf. Die unmittelbare Verbindung von Heckteil und Spitzenteil kommt somit nicht durch eine Verschraubung zustande. Spitzenteil und Heckteil bilden zusammen einen Zerschellpenetrator.The tip part of the new sub-caliber floor is made of a plastic filled with the particles. Unlike the rear part according to DE-84 03 719.9-U1 , the rear part does not have a thread that could be referred to as a holding groove, but rather a plurality of genuine, separate holding grooves. The direct connection between the rear section and the tip section is therefore not achieved by a screw connection. The tip part and the rear part together form a smashing penetrator.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung besteht das Spitzenteil aus einem mit Bronze- oder Wolframpulver gefüllten Kunststoff.According to an advantageous development, the tip part consists of a bronze or Tungsten powder filled plastic.

Insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Flugeigenschaften der neuen Unterkalibergeschosse hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, das Heckteil schwerer auszubilden als das Spitzenteil, wobei vorzugsweise das Gewichtsverhältnis von Heckteil zu Spitzenteil annähernd im Bereich von zwei zu eins ist.Especially with regard to the flight characteristics of the new sub-caliber bullets proved to be favorable to make the rear part heavier than the tip part, whereby preferably the weight ratio of rear part to tip part approximately in the range of is two to one.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile sind darin zu sehen, dass man ein einfach und kostengünstig herstellbares Unterkalibergeschoss erhält. Der Zerschellpenetrator ist optimal gestaltet, so dass er einerseits die Zuführung in der Waffe und den Abschussschock übersteht und auf der Flugbahn bei geringen Anstellwinkeln nicht zerbricht; anderseits aber beim Auftreffen im Ziel, aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Materialien und Massen von Spitzenteil und Heckteil und der Art der Verbindung der beiden, problemlos in Spitzenteil und Heckteil getrennt wird. Zusätzlich kann, je nach Zielwiderstand, auch das spröde Spitzenteil in mehrere Teile zersplittern. Nach dem Zerschellen weist das leichter ausgebildete Teil maximal annähernd 66% bis 50% des Gewichtes des schwereren Teils auf.The advantages achieved with the invention can be seen in the fact that one is simple and receives inexpensive to manufacture sub-caliber floor. The smash penetrator is optimal designed so that on the one hand the feed in the weapon and the launch shock survives and does not break on the trajectory at low angles of attack; on the other hand when hitting the target due to the different materials and masses of Tip part and tail part and the type of connection of the two, easily in the tip part and Rear part is separated. In addition, depending on the target resistance, the brittle tip part can split into several pieces. After being smashed, the lighter part shows a maximum of approximately 66% to 50% of the weight of the heavier part.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles im Zusammenhang mit der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

Am Treibspiegel sind mehrere Längsnuten 4, gleichmässig am Umfang verteilt und durchgehend von vorn bis annähernd zum Ende eines Führungsbandes 5 verlaufend, angeordnet. Die Längsnuten 4 können beispielsweise einen den Längsnuten des vorstehend genannten Standes der Technik ähnlichen Querschnitt aufweisen. Durch die Längsnuten 4 werden Segmente 6 gebildet, die durch Sollbruchstellen 7 miteinander verbunden sind. Am vorderen Ende des Treibspiegels 1 ist eine Umfangsnut 8 für die Befestigung einer Schutzhaube 9 vorgesehen, während am hinteren Ende des Treibspiegels 1 eine weitere Umfangsnut 10 für die Anbringung einer Patronenhülse angeordnet ist.In Fig. 1 , 1 is a droppable one-part sabot and 2 is a sabot penetrator held in sabot 1 . The sabot 1 known in a similar form from EP-A-0 645 600 consists of a high-temperature, fiber-reinforced, thermoplastic material which engages in holding grooves 3, 3.1 of the shattering penetrator 2 . A plurality of longitudinal grooves 4 are arranged on the sabot , distributed uniformly on the circumference and running continuously from the front to approximately the end of a guide belt 5 . The longitudinal grooves 4 can, for example, have a cross section similar to the longitudinal grooves of the aforementioned prior art. The longitudinal grooves 4 form segments 6 which are connected to one another by predetermined breaking points 7 . At the front end of the sabot 1 , a circumferential groove 8 is provided for the attachment of a protective hood 9 , while at the rear end of the sabot 1 there is a further circumferential groove 10 for the attachment of a cartridge case.

Der Zerschellpenetrator 2 weist ein Spitzenteil 21 und ein Heckteil 22 auf, die unmittelbar miteinander verbunden sind, wobei das Spitzenteil 21 vorzugsweise aus einem mit Bronzeoder Wolframpulver gefüllten Kunststoff und das Heckteil 22 aus Stahl besteht. Spitzenteil 21 und Heckteil 22 sind derart gestaltet, dass das Gewichtsverhältnis Heckteil zu Spitzenteil annähernd zwei zu eins ist. Das Heckteil 22 weist einen mit Halterillen 24 versehenen zylindrischen Ansatz 23 auf, der auch konisch ausgebildet sein könnte, mittels welchem es im Spitzenteil 21 verankert ist. Im Heckteil 22 ist eine Bohrung 25 vorgesehen, die mit einem Leuchtspursatz 26 gefüllt ist.The smashing penetrator 2 has a tip part 21 and a rear part 22 which are directly connected to one another, the tip part 21 preferably consisting of a plastic filled with bronze or tungsten powder and the rear part 22 made of steel. Tip part 21 and rear part 22 are designed such that the weight ratio of the rear part to the tip part is approximately two to one. The rear part 22 has a cylindrical projection 23 provided with retaining grooves 24 , which could also be conical, by means of which it is anchored in the tip part 21 .
