Abstract

The large caliber cannon (1), with a barrel (3) sliding in a cradle (2), fires ammunition using propellant cartridges. A catch holder (9) for the spent cartridges is behind the weapon, to take the ejected cartridge cases when the breech is opened on recoil and the ejector (6) extracts the cartridge. The cartridge trap has a cartridge box (12) with a sprung base so that, if the breech fouls a spent cartridge on recoil or recuperation, the cartridge is pushed clear by displacing the base on its spring.

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Waffe mit einem in einer Wiege verschiebbar gelagerten Waffenrohr zum Verschießen großkalibriger Munition mit Hülsen, wobei die Waffe ein mit einem Fallkeil versehenes Bodenstück umfaßt, an dem ein Hülsenauswerfer angeordnet ist, der die Hülsen der jeweiligen Munition nach Schußabgabe und Öffnen des Verschlusses heckseitig aus dem Waffenrohr auswirft.The invention relates to a weapon with a weapon barrel slidably mounted in a cradle for firing large-caliber ammunition with sleeves, the weapon being a comprises a bottom wedge provided on which a sleeve ejector is arranged, the case of the respective ammunition after firing the shot and opening the breech ejects from the rear of the gun barrel.

Zur Aufnahme der nach Schußabgabe ausgeworfenen Patronenhülsen bzw. Hülsenböden verbrennbarer Treibladungshülsen (im folgenden zusammenfassend auch nur als Hülse bezeichnet) ist bereits vorgeschlagen worden, an der Waffe angeordnete Hülsenfangbehälter mit einem Hülsenkasten zu verwenden. Bei bekannten derartigen Waffen bereiten diese Hülsenfangbehälter indessen Probleme, weil es häufig zu einem Verklemmen der beweglichen Teile des Waffenrohres, Bodenstückes oder Verschlußkomponenten durch die mehr oder weniger willkürlich in dem Hülsenkasten liegenden Hülsen kommen kann. Ein derartiges Verklemmen durch Hülsen führt nicht selten zu einem Vorlaufstillstand des entsprechenden Waffenrohres und damit zu einer Waffenfunktionsstörung.For receiving the cartridge cases or case bases ejected after the shot has been fired combustible propellant charge casings (in the following also collectively only as casings has already been proposed, sleeve catcher arranged on the weapon to use with a sleeve case. In known weapons of this type, they prepare Sleeve catcher, however, has problems because it often jams the moving Parts of the gun barrel, base piece or locking components through the more or less can come arbitrarily sleeves lying in the sleeve box. Such a thing Jamming by sleeves often leads to a preliminary shutdown of the corresponding one Gun barrel and thus to a weapon malfunction.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Waffe der eingangs erwähnten Art anzugeben, bei welcher Funktionsstörungen durch Verklemmen der beweglichen Teile der Waffe durch in dem Hülsenfangbehälter befindlichen Hülsen vermieden wird.The invention has for its object to provide a weapon of the type mentioned, at which malfunctions by jamming the moving parts of the Gun is avoided by sleeves located in the sleeve catcher.

Dabei ist der Hülsenfangbehälter 9 derart ausgebildet, daß er den Rücklauf des Waffenrohres 3 und des Bodenstückes 4 nach Schußabgabe nicht behindert.The weapon 1 also comprises a sleeve catcher arranged behind the base 4 9, which is connected to the cradle tube 2 via fastening arms 10, 11. The sleeve catcher 9 is designed such that it the return of the gun barrel 3 and the bottom piece 4 not hindered after firing the shot.

    Der Hülsenfangbehälter 9 weist einen Hülsenkasten 12 zur Aufnahme von z.B. 4 Hülsenböden 7 sowie ein Prallelement 13 auf, welches von einer in den Fig.1, 2, 4 und 6 dargestellten Ausgangsstellung gegen den Druck einer Drehfeder 14 (Fig.4) in eine eingeklappte Stellung schwenkbar ist, wobei die Schwenkbewegung des Prallelementes 13 um eine zur Seelenachse 15 des Waffenrohres 3 senkrechte Achse 16 zum Bodenstück 4 hin erfolgt. Ein einstellbarer Endanschlag 17 begrenzt dabei die Schwenkbewegung des Prallelementes 13.The sleeve collecting container 9 has a sleeve box 12 for receiving e.g. 4 sleeve bases 7 and a baffle element 13, which is shown by one in FIGS. 1, 2, 4 and 6 Starting position against the pressure of a torsion spring 14 (Fig.4) in a folded Position is pivotable, the pivoting movement of the impact element 13 to one Soul axis 15 of the gun barrel 3 vertical axis 16 to the bottom piece 4 takes place. An adjustable end stop 17 limits the pivoting movement of the impact element 13th

    Auf dem Prallelement 13 ist eine Schürze 18 befestigt. Prallelement 13 und Schürze 18 sind mit dämpfenden Kunststoffplatten belegt.An apron 18 is fastened on the impact element 13. Baffle element 13 and apron 18 are covered with damping plastic plates.

    Der Hülsenkasten 12 umfaßt zwei Seitenwände 19, 20 (Fig.5), Rückwand und eine Bodenklappe 21, wobei die Seitenwände 19, 20, die Rückwand als auch die Bodenklappe 21 mit dämpfenden Gummiplatten belegt sind. Die Bodenklappe 21 ist heckseitig an dem Hülsenkasten 12 um eine Drehachse 22 schwenkbar gelagert (Fig.6). Der vordere Teil der Bodenklappe 21 ist mit einer nach oben gerichteten Rampe 23 (Fig.7) versehen. Außerdem umfaßt die Bodenklappe 21 zwei Befestigungsleisten 24, die jeweils mit einem Ende dreier Federn 25, 26 verbunden sind, welche die Bodenklappe 21 in ihrer Ausgangslage halten.The sleeve box 12 comprises two side walls 19, 20 (Fig.5), rear wall and a bottom flap 21, the side walls 19, 20, the rear wall and the bottom flap 21 with damping rubber plates are occupied. The bottom flap 21 is on the rear side of the sleeve box 12 pivotally mounted about an axis of rotation 22 (Fig.6). The front part of the bottom flap 21 is provided with an upward ramp 23 (FIG. 7). Also includes the bottom flap 21 two mounting strips 24, each with one end three Springs 25, 26 are connected, which hold the bottom flap 21 in its initial position.

    Unterhalb der Rampe 23 befindet sich ein Endanschlag 27, welcher den Öffnungswinkel 28 der Bodenklappe 21 (zum Schutz der Federn gegen Überlängen) begrenzt.Below the ramp 23 there is an end stop 27 which defines the opening angle 28 of the bottom flap 21 (to protect the springs against excess lengths).

    Nachfolgend wird auf die Wirkungsweise des Hülsenfangbehälters 9 eingegangen. Hierzu sei angenommen, daß sich die zu verschießende Patrone bereits in dem Waffenrohr 3 befindet und der Verschluß geschlossen ist.The mode of operation of the sleeve collecting container 9 is discussed below. For this it is assumed that the cartridge to be fired is already in the gun barrel 3 and the shutter is closed.

    Nach Abgabe eines Schusses erfolgt zunächst der Rücklauf des Waffenrohres 3, ohne daß hierbei das Bodenstück 4 auf das Prallelement 13 des Hülsenfangbehälters 9 einwirkt. Bei dem anschließenden Vorlauf des Waffenrohres 3 wird der Hülsenboden 7 mit dem Treibladungsanzünder 8 der gezündeten Patrone mittels des Hülsenauswerfers 6 nach hinten ausgeworfen und trifft auf das nach vorne geneigte Prallelement 13 mit Schürze 18. Von dieser wird der Hülsenboden 7 abgeleitet und fällt in den Hülsenkasten 12, wo er eine mehr oder weniger zufällige Lage einnimmt.After firing a shot, the gun barrel 3 is first returned without in this case, the base piece 4 acts on the impact element 13 of the sleeve collecting container 9. at the subsequent advance of the weapon barrel 3, the sleeve bottom 7 with the propellant charge lighter 8 of the ignited cartridge by means of the sleeve ejector 6 to the rear ejected and hits the forwardly inclined impact element 13 with apron 18 this is derived from the sleeve base 7 and falls into the sleeve box 12, where it is one more or less random position.

    Zum anschließenden Laden einer neuen Patrone wird das Prallelement 13 von den die Patrone tragenden Händen des jeweiligen Richtschützen beim Zuführen der Patrone gleichzeitig nach vorne geklappt.For the subsequent loading of a new cartridge, the impact element 13 is the cartridge each gunner's hands when feeding the cartridge at the same time folded forward.

    Durch die Möglichkeit des Ausfederns der Bodenklappe 21 beim Rücklauf und beim Vorlauf des Waffenrohres 3 wird ein Einklemmen der Hülsenböden 7 zwischen den rück- bzw. vorlaufenden Waffenteilen und dem Hülsenkasten 12 in der Regel sicher vermieden.Due to the possibility of rebounding the bottom flap 21 during the return and the forward movement the weapon barrel 3 is a pinching of the sleeve bottoms 7 between the back or leading weapon parts and the sleeve case 12 avoided as a rule.

    Der maximale Öffnungswinkel 28 der Bodenklappe 21 ist derart gewählt, daß bei jeder sich zufällig ergebenden Ablage der Hülsenböden 7 in dem Hülsenkasten 12 diese nach Ausfederung der Bodenklappe 21 nicht in den Bewegungsraum der Waffenrohrteile, des Bodenstückes und des Verschlusses (einschließlich des Verschlußkeiles und des Öffnerhebels) während des Rück- bzw. Vorlaufes des Waffenrohres 3 ragen.The maximum opening angle 28 of the bottom flap 21 is chosen such that each randomly resulting storage of the sleeve bottoms 7 in the sleeve box 12 after this Deflection of the bottom flap 21 not in the movement space of the gun barrel parts, the Bottom piece and the lock (including the locking wedge and the opening lever) protrude during the return or advance of the gun barrel 3.

    Die Entleerung des Hülsenkastens 12 erfolgt bei dem vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel manuell.The sleeve box 12 is emptied in the exemplary embodiment described above manually.

    Die federnde Bodenklappe ist derart ausgelegt, daß sie sich bei Beladung des jeweiligen Waffensystems (z.B. Panzers) und bei Geländefahrt nicht selbständig öffnen kann. The resilient bottom flap is designed so that it is loaded when the respective Weapon system (e.g. tanks) and cannot open automatically when driving off-road.
