These have a curved cross-section, allowing the block to be rotated from a position where the opaque sections block the slit to a position where the block allows passengers to see out.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein gepanzertes Fahrzeug mit mindestens einer in einer äußeren Fahrzeugwand befindlichen Vorrichtung mit einem Sichtblock aus einem lichtdurchlässigen Material zum Beobachten der äußeren Umgebung des Fahrzeuges von dessen Innenseite aus.The invention relates to an armored vehicle with at least one in an outer Device located vehicle wall with a viewing block made of a translucent Material for observing the outside of the vehicle from the inside out.

Insbesondere gepanzerte Mannschaftstransportfahrzeuge besitzen häufig eine Heckklappe, die zum schnellen Aus- und Einsteigen der Soldaten heruntergelassen wird und als Rampe dient. Bei derartigen Fahrzeugen hat man bisher darauf verzichtet, zur Beobachtung des äußeren Umfeldes unter Panzerschutz durch die Mannschaft Sichtmittel, wie Winkelspiegel oder Sichtblöcke, in die Heckklappe einzulassen. Denn diese würden beim Herunterlassen der Heckklappe außenseitig vom Erdreich verschmutzt werden. Außerdem würden die aus dem Fahrzeug herausstürmenden oder in das Fahrzeug hineinstürmenden Soldaten die Sichtmittel mit ihren Stiefeln beschmutzen und gegebenenfalls auch beschädigen.Armored personnel carriers in particular often have a tailgate, which is lowered to quickly get in and out of the soldiers and as a ramp serves. So far, such vehicles have not been used to observe the outer environment under armor protection by the crew sight, such as angle mirrors or viewing blocks in the tailgate. Because these would when lowering outside of the tailgate are contaminated by the soil. Besides, would the soldiers storming out of the vehicle or storming into the vehicle Soil and, if necessary, damage the sight with their boots.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gepanzertes Fahrzeug anzugeben, bei dem in der äußeren Fahrzeugwand, insbesondere in der Heckklappe eines Mannschaftstransportfahrzeuges, eine Vorrichtung mit einem Sichtblock vorhanden ist, der wesentlich schwerer verschmutz- und beschädigbar ist als dieses bei Verwendung herkömmlicher Sichtmittel der Fall ist.The invention is therefore based on the object of specifying an armored vehicle that in the outer vehicle wall, in particular in the tailgate of a team transport vehicle, there is a device with a viewing block that is essential is more difficult to contaminate and damage than this when using conventional ones Sight is the case.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung offenbaren die Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further, particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention disclose the subclaims.

Die Erfindung beruht im wesentlichen auf dem Gedanken, einen vorzugsweise beschußsicheren Sichtblock in einer walzenförmigen Halterung aus vorzugsweise Panzerstahl einzulassen und drehbar in der entsprechenden Außenwand des Fahrzeuges, insbesondere der Heckklappe eines Mannschaftstransportfahrzeuges, zu lagern, derart, daß in einer ersten geöffneten Stellung der Halterung eine Beobachtung der äußeren Umgebung des entsprechenden Fahrzeuges von dessen Innenseite aus durch den Sichtblock möglich ist und daß in einer zweiten um 90° gedrehten geschlossenen Stellung der Halterung deren aus Panzerstahl bestehende Wandbereiche den Sichtblock gegen Verschmutzung von beiden Seiten schützen.The invention is essentially based on the idea of a preferably bulletproof Insert the viewing block in a roller-shaped holder, preferably made of armored steel and rotatable in the corresponding outer wall of the vehicle, in particular the Tailgate of a team transport vehicle to be stored in such a way that in a first open position of the holder an observation of the external environment of the corresponding Vehicle from the inside is possible through the viewing block and that in a second closed position of the holder rotated by 90 ° of armored steel existing wall areas the viewing block against contamination from both sides protect.

Das Drehen der Halterung kann manuell oder vorteilhafterweise mit Hilfe eines Elektromotors erfolgen. Im Falle der Anordnung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung in einer Heckklappe kann vorgesehen sein, daß beim Öffnen der Heckklappe die Halterung automatisch um 90° in ihre geschlossene Stellung verschwenkt wird und somit eine Verschmutzung des Sichtblockes innen- und außenseitig verhindert wird.The holder can be rotated manually or advantageously with the aid of an electric motor respectively. In the case of the arrangement of the device according to the invention in one Tailgate can be provided that the bracket automatically when opening the tailgate is pivoted through 90 ° into its closed position and thus contamination of the viewing block on the inside and outside is prevented.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, daß in der geschlossenen Stellung der Halterung auch ein Panzerschutz vorhanden ist, wenn der in der Regel aus Glas bestehende Sichtblock zerstört sein sollte.Another advantage of the invention is that in the closed position of the Bracket also has armor protection if the glass is usually made Viewing block should be destroyed.

Außerdem können die beiden Seiten des Sichtblockes unter Panzerschutz gereinigt werden. Hierzu muß die Halterung lediglich um 180° drehbar ausgebildet sein.In addition, the two sides of the viewing block can be cleaned under armor protection. For this purpose, the holder only has to be designed to be rotatable by 180 °.

Schließlich kann durch die Vorrichtung sichergestellt werden, daß Nachts kein Licht aus dem jeweiligen gepanzerten Fahrzeug nach außen dringt, wenn die entsprechende Halterung in ihre geschlossene Stellung gedreht wird.Finally, it can be ensured by the device that no light goes out at night the respective armored vehicle penetrates to the outside if the corresponding bracket is turned into its closed position.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus dem folgenden anhand von Figuren erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiel. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht der Heckklappe eines Mannschaftstransportfahrzeuges im Halbschnitt sowohl in der geschlossenen als auch in der geöffneten Stellung;
  • Fig.2 und 3 vergrößerte Ansichten der in Fig.1 dargestellten Heckklappe in der geöffneten Stellung der Halterung (Fig.2) und in der geschlossenen Stellung der Halterung (Fig.3).
  • Further details and advantages of the invention result from the following exemplary embodiment explained with reference to figures. Show it:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the tailgate of a team transport vehicle in half section in both the closed and in the open position.
  • 2 and 3 enlarged views of the tailgate shown in Fig.1 in the open position of the bracket (Fig.2) and in the closed position of the bracket (Fig.3).
  • In Fig.1 ist mit 1 die um eine Drehachse 2 schwenkbare Heckklappe eines gepanzerten Mannschaftstransportfahrzeuges im Halbschnitt sowohl in der oberen geschlossenen als auch in der unteren geöffneten Stellung dargestellt. Im Bereich der oberen Kante der Heckklappe 1 befindet sich eine Vorrichtung 3 mit einem Sichtblock 4 aus einem lichtdurchlässigen Material (z.B. Glas) zum Beobachten der äußeren Umgebung des Fahrzeuges durch die im Innenraum des Fahrzeuges befindliche Mannschaft.In FIG. 1, the rear hatch, which is pivotable about an axis of rotation 2, is armored Crew transport vehicle in half section in both the upper closed and also shown in the lower open position. In the area of the upper edge of the Tailgate 1 is a device 3 with a viewing block 4 made of a translucent Material (e.g. glass) for observing the outside environment of the vehicle by the crew inside the vehicle.

    In der Heckklappe 1 ist ein breiter Schlitz 5 ausgearbeitet (Fig.2). Dieser dient als Aufnahme für eine um ihre Längsachse 6 drehbare, walzenförmige Halterung 7, die zwei gegenüberliegende, aus Panzerstahl bestehende Wandbereiche 8, 9 aufweist, welche einen den Sichtblock 4 enthaltenden Sehschlitz 10 begrenzen. Die gesamte Vorrichtung 3 wird durch einen aufschraubbaren Rahmen 11 zusammengehalten.A wide slot 5 has been worked out in the tailgate 1 (FIG. 2). This serves as a recording for a roller-shaped holder 7 rotatable about its longitudinal axis 6, the two opposite, Wall areas 8, 9 consisting of armored steel, which one limit the viewing slit 10 containing viewing block 4. The entire device 3 will held together by a screw-on frame 11.

    Die walzenförmige Halterung 7 kann durch einen in den Fig.2 und 3 gestrichelt angedeuteten Elektromotor 12 oder manuell angetrieben werden.The roller-shaped holder 7 can be indicated by a dashed line in FIGS Electric motor 12 or manually driven.

    Befindet sich die Heckklappe 1 in ihrer geschlossenen Stellung (Fig.2), so können die sitzenden Insassen durch den Sichtblock 4 ungehindert hindurchsehen. Wird die Heckklappe 1 aufgeklappt (Fig.3), wird die walzenförmige Halterung 7 automatisch durch Ativierung des Elektromotors 12 um 90° gedreht. Dadurch drehen sich die Außenseite 13 und die Innenseite 14 des Sichtblockes 4 in den Bereich der Panzerung der Heckklappe 1. An der Außenseite 15 und Innenseite 16 der Heckklappe 1 befinden sich jetzt die aus Panzerstahl bestehenden Wandbereiche 8, 9 der walzenförmigen Halterung 7, so daß eine Verschmutzung des Sichtblockes 4 durch die Erde oder durch die das Fahrzeug verlassenden oder betretenden Insassen nicht erfolgen kann.If the tailgate 1 is in its closed position (Fig. 2), the seated can See occupants unhindered through the viewing block 4. Will the tailgate 1 opened (Fig.3), the roller-shaped holder 7 is automatically activated of the electric motor 12 rotated by 90 °. As a result, the outside 13 and the inside rotate 14 of the viewing block 4 in the area of the armor of the tailgate 1. At the Outside 15 and inside 16 of the tailgate 1 are now made of armored steel existing wall areas 8, 9 of the roller-shaped holder 7, so that contamination of the viewing block 4 through the earth or through those leaving the vehicle or occupants cannot enter.

    Wird anschließend die Heckklappe 1 in ihre geschlossene Stellung verschwenkt, so dreht sich die walzenförmige Halterung 7 entweder um 90° weiter oder in die Ausgangsstellung zurück. Dabei säubern Schmutzabstreifer (nicht dargestellt) an der Heckklappe 1 die aus Panzerstahl bestehenden Wandbereiche 8, 9.If the tailgate 1 is then pivoted into its closed position, it rotates the roller-shaped holder 7 either 90 ° further or in the starting position back. In the process, dirt scrapers (not shown) on the tailgate 1 clean them out Armored steel existing wall areas 8, 9.

    Die vorstehende Erfindung ist selbstverständlich nicht auf das vorstehend beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt. So kann die beschriebene Vorrichtung keineswegs nur in die Heckklappe eines gepanzerten Fahrzeuges eingebaut werden, sondern auch in eine feste Seitenwand eines derartigen Fahrzeuges. Durch Verschwenken der walzenförmigen Halterung in die geschlossene Stellung kann insbesondere erreicht werden, daß der jeweilige Sehschlitz auch dann gegen Beschuß gesichert ist, wenn das Panzerglas beschädigt sein sollte. Außerdem verhindert die walzenförmige Halterung in ihrer geschlossenen Stellung das Austreten von Licht in der Nacht, wenn das Fahrzeug nicht gesehen werden soll. The above invention is of course not limited to that described above Embodiment limited. So the device described can by no means only in the tailgate of an armored vehicle can be installed, but also in a fixed one Side wall of such a vehicle. By swiveling the roller-shaped Bracket in the closed position can be achieved in particular that the respective Eye slit is also secured against fire when the bulletproof glass is damaged should be. In addition, the roller-shaped holder prevents it from being closed Position the leakage of light at night when the vehicle cannot be seen should.
