The ground is pressed down using a roller (4), compacted and smoothed over. Preferred Features: The revolutions of the shaft can be independently adjusted and can be rectified in the rotation direction. The distance of the cross-axles of the roller and the shaft can be adjusted. The weight of the roller can be changed by filling the hollow roller with a liquid. The roller acts as a protective screen against the ground material and exploding mines.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Minenräumen, bestehend aus einem Trägerfahrzeug in Form eines Raupen- oder Kettenfahrzeugs mit vorgebautem höhenverschwenkbar angeordneten Schubarmen zur waagerechten Aufnahme einer rotierenden Welle mit einer Anzahl über ihre Länge verteilte Massestücke, die an biegsamen Verbindungsteilen gelenkig an der Welle befestigt sind und die im Arbeitseinsatz bei entsprechender Drehzahl und Drehrichtung der Welle von vorne nach hinten durch das zu räumende Bodenmaterial dringen, als sogenanntes Flail- oder Dreschflegelsystem, sowie zur Aufnahme einer dahinter in gleicher Weise angeordneten Druckwalze, welche fliegend gelagert mit dem Fahrzeug mitläuft.The invention relates to a device for mine clearance, consisting of a carrier vehicle in the form of a caterpillar or tracked vehicle with vorgebautem höhenverschwenkbar arranged thrust arms for horizontally receiving a rotating shaft with a number distributed over its length mass pieces, which hinged to flexible connecting parts on the shaft are and in operation at the appropriate speed and direction of rotation of the shaft from the front to the back penetrate through the soil to be cleared, as a so-called Flail- or Dreschflegelsystem, as well as for receiving a behind arranged in the same way pressure roller, which runs along with the vehicle flying.

Minen sind weltweit für die Bevölkerung eine Bedrohung. Sie verursachen Schäden an Leib und Leben und behindern nachhaltig den Wiederaufbau eines durch einen Einsatz verseuchten Landes. Viele Minenverlegungen erfolgen nicht nach militärischen Regeln als Minenfeld oder -gürtel sondern ohne Kennzeichnung und Regelhaftigkeit. Diese Verlegungen, die auch von Vegetation zwischenzeitlich überwuchert sind, stellen eine besondere Gefahr dar.Mines are a threat to the population worldwide. They cause damage to life and limb and hinder the long-term reconstruction of land contaminated by a mission. Many mine transfers are not made according to military rules as a minefield or belt but without marking and regularity. These linings, which are also overgrown by vegetation in the meantime, pose a particular danger.

Die herkömmliche Minenräumung mit Metalldetektor und Minensuchnadel ist zeitaufwendig und gefährlich. Generell gibt es nur zwei eindeutige Kriterien, die eine Mine von dem umgebenden Boden unterscheiden: ein Sprengstoffgehalt und eine minimale Größe von ca. 5 cm Kantenlänge oder Durchmesser. Dies ist begründet in einer angestrebten Wirkung und kann daher nicht ohne Wirkungsverlust unterschritten werden.The traditional mine clearance with metal detector and mine-search needle is time-consuming and dangerous. Generally, there are only two distinct criteria that distinguish a mine from the surrounding soil: an explosive content and a minimum size of about 5 cm edge length or diameter. This is justified in a desired effect and therefore can not be reached without loss of effectiveness.

Nach dem Stand der Technik gibt es mehrere Geräteausführungen, die mit mindestens einer Fräs- oder Bearbeitungswalze als Forst- oder Minenbekämpfungseinrichtung den Boden durcharbeiten oder auch wegfördern.According to the prior art, there are several device versions that work through with at least one milling or machining roller as a forestry or mine control equipment the ground or even convey away.

In der DE19513450 C1 wird eine Vorrichtung zur Bearbeitung von Böden mit einer Fräswalze beschrieben. Dieses Gerät besitzt ein obenliegendes und einstellbares Brechelement mit einer zur Walze einstellbaren Brechkante und Durchlaufspalt für das von der Walze geförderte Bodenmaterial. Die Anordnung kann auch eine antreibbare Brechwalze enthalten, die der Fräswalze anstelle des Brechelementes nachgeschaltet ist.
In der DE19522005 C1 wird ebenfalls eine Vorrichtung zur Bearbeitung von Böden beschrieben. Dieses Gerät besitzt eine Fräswalze waagerecht zum Böden mit Fräswerkzeugen bestückt und eine oberhalb der Fräswalze angeordnete Mischwalze, mit der das von der Fräswalze nach oben geförderte Bodenmaterial weiter gelockert und auch Zuschlagstoffe in den Boden eingemischt werden können.
DE19513450 C1 describes a device for processing soils with a milling drum. This device has an overhead and adjustable Refractive element with a roll-adjustable crushing edge and passage gap for the promoted by the roller soil material. The arrangement may also include a drivable crushing roller, which is connected downstream of the milling drum instead of the crushing element.
DE19522005 C1 also describes a device for processing soils. This device has a milling drum mounted horizontally to the floors with milling tools and arranged above the milling roller mixing roller, with the further upwards from the milling drum soil material loosened and aggregates can be mixed into the soil.

Weiterhin sind Vorrichtungen bekannt, die den Boden mit Schneiden oder Hämmern, die am Umfang einer waagerecht liegenden angetriebenen Walze angebracht sind, durcharbeiten und etwaige Minen im Boden mittels Druckbeaufschlagung durch die Schneiden zur Explosion bringen, wobei die Förderung von Bodenmaterial von sekundärer Bedeutung oder ein Störfaktor ist.Furthermore, devices are known which work through the ground with cutters or hammers mounted on the circumference of a horizontal driven roller and explode any mines in the ground by pressurization by the cutters, with the promotion of soil material of secondary importance or a disturbing factor is.

Nach der EP 0618423 ist es bekannt, mit einer Walze den Boden vor der Walze anzuhäufen und die im Boden enthaltenen Minen durch den Anpreßdruck der Walze oder den Materialdruck im angehäuften Boden zur Explosion zu bringen. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß lediglich ein Teil der Minen unschädlich gemacht wird.According to EP 0618423 it is known to accumulate the soil in front of the roll with a roll and to explode the mines contained in the soil by the contact pressure of the roll or the material pressure in the accumulated soil. It has been shown that only a portion of the mines is rendered harmless.

Nach der DE 19813541 C1 wird eine Minenräumvorrichtung vorgeschlagen, die zu einer Fräswalze mindestens eine weitere antreibbare Walze darüber oder dahinter im Abstand aufweist, wobei die auf beiden Walzen aufgesetzten Bearbeitungswerkzeuge miteinander kämmen und einen Bearbeitungsspalt bilden zur Zerkleinerung des durchgeförderten Erdreichs einschließlich enthaltener Minen.According to DE 19813541 C1, a mine clearance device is proposed, which has at least one further drivable roller above or behind it at a distance from a milling drum, wherein the machining tools placed on both rollers mesh with one another and form a machining gap for comminuting the soil conveyed through, including contained mines.

Bekannt ist auch der Minenräumpanzer Keiler der Bundeswehr, der ein rotierendes Flailsystem vor dem Fahrzeug an Schubarmen montiert hat, mit denen der Boden vor dem Fahrzeug durchkämmt, von Minen befreit und eine minenfreie Gasse hergestellt wird, siehe Wehrtechnik Nr. 8/ 1996 oder Firmenschrift MaK System GmbH, Kiel.Also well-known is the mine clearance Keiler of the Federal Armed Forces, which has mounted a rotating pile system in front of the vehicle on push arms, with which the floor combed in front of the vehicle, freed of mines and a mine-free lane is made, see military technology No. 8/1996 or company MaK System GmbH, Kiel.

Nach der DE 29906926U1 wird ein Minenräumfahrzeug vorgeschlagen, welches ein Flailsystem und eine Fräswalze besitzt, wobei die beiden Systeme an verschiedenen Stellen am Fahrzeug angebracht sein können und das Fahrzeug mit geringem Gewicht ausgeführt wird.According to DE 29906926U1 a mine clearance vehicle is proposed, which has a flail system and a milling drum, wherein the two systems can be mounted at different locations on the vehicle and the vehicle is carried out with low weight.

Die FR 917 695 A, welche eine Grundlage für den Anspruch 1 bildet, beschreibt eine Räumvorrichtung für Landminen als Anbau an einem Trägerfahrzeug. Die Vorrichtung weist zwei Schubarme auf, die zueinander parallel verlaufend verschwenkbar am Trägerfahrzeug angeordnet sind. Am vorderen Ende der Schubarme ist eine drehbare Walze angebracht, die in Höhe zum Boden absenkbar ist. An der Walze verteilt sind mehrere Schlägel vorhanden. Zur besseren Handhabung der Vorrichtung und nur aktivierung von Minen welche nicht von den Schlägel vernichtet wurden ist zwischen den beiden Armen eine Räderwalze eingebunden.FR 917 695 A, which forms a basis for claim 1, describes a clearing device for landmines as an attachment to a carrier vehicle. The device has two push arms, which are arranged parallel to each other and pivotable on the carrier vehicle. At the front end of the push arms, a rotatable roller is mounted, which is lowered in height to the ground. Distributed on the roller several mallets are available. For better handling of the device and only activation of mines which have not been destroyed by the mallets between the two arms a wheel roller is involved.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die Verwendung gattungsgemäßer Ausbildungen zur Bodenbearbeitung für die Minenräumung zu verbessern, um Minen auf einfache Weise unschädlich zu machen.The object of the invention is to improve the use of generic training for tillage for mine clearance to make mines harmless in a simple manner.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß durch den Gegenstand des Anspruches 1, und zwar dadurch, daß das Flailsystem das Bodenmaterial bis zu einer einstellbaren Arbeitstiefe durchpflügt und nach hinten vor die Druckwalze fördert, von der es mit Druck beaufschlagt, überfahren und geebnet wird, bevor es vom Trägerfahrzeug überfahren wird, wozu der Abstand der waagerechten querliegenden Achsen der Gewichtswalze und der Flailwelle einstellbar ausgeführt ist.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention by the subject matter of claim 1, namely the fact that the paving system plows through the soil material to an adjustable working depth and conveys backwards in front of the pressure roller from which it is pressurized, run over and leveled before it is traversed by the carrier vehicle, including the distance between the horizontal transverse axes of the weight roll and the Flailwelle is made adjustable.

Im Erdboden versteckte Minen werden von den rotierenden Massestücken des Flail zerschlagen und gezündet oder im selteneren Fall mittels Druckbeaufschlagung der Druckwalze zur Auslösung gebracht.Mines hidden in the ground are smashed and ignited by the rotating masses of the flail or, in the rarer case, triggered by applying pressure to the pressure roller.

Um eine Anpassung an verschiedene Bodenverhältnisse zu erreichen, wird vorgeschlagen, die Drehzahl des Flail einstellbar zu machen entsprechend der Energie, die für das Durchschlagen des Bodens benötigt wird.In order to achieve an adaptation to different ground conditions, it is proposed to make the speed of the flail adjustable according to the energy that is needed for the penetration of the soil.

Die Druckwalze kann fliegend gelagert und vom Trägerfahrzeug geschoben werden. Der Walzendruck auf den Boden kann durch Auflastung der Walze bei Bedarf verändert werden. Bei entsprechender Zweckmäßigkeit ist ein Walzenantrieb entsprechend dem Fahrzeugvortrieb vorstellbar.The pressure roller can be stored on the fly and pushed by the carrier vehicle. The roll pressure on the ground can be changed by loading the roll if necessary. With appropriate convenience, a roller drive according to the vehicle propulsion is conceivable.

Es wird auch vorgeschlagen, das Flail- und das Walzensystem unabhängig voneinander einsetzbar zu halten mit einer jeweiligen Arbeits- und einer ausgehobenen Transportstellung, so daß entweder das eine oder das andere oder beide Systeme bei einem Arbeitseinsatz zum Eingriff gebracht werden können, so daß sowohl eine Gassen- als auch eine Flächenräumung möglich ist.It is also proposed to keep the flange and the roller system independently usable with a respective working and a raised transport position, so that either one or the other or both systems can be engaged in a labor intervention, so that both a Gassen- as well as an area clearance is possible.

Eine günstige Ausgestaltung für schweren Boden wird dadurch geschaffen, daß der Walze ein Abstreifelement oder eine Bürstwalze zur Reinigung am Fahrzeug zugeordnet ist.A favorable design for heavy soil is created by the fact that the roller is associated with a scraper or a brush roller for cleaning the vehicle.

Aufgrund der ganz unterschiedlichen Minen und Explosionskörper, die unschädlich gemacht werden sollen, wird das Fahrzeug vorzugsweise ferngesteuert und fernüberwacht eingesetzt.Due to the very different mines and explosive bodies that are to be made harmless, the vehicle is preferably used remotely and remotely monitored.

Um ein sicheres Manövrieren des Fahrzeugs als Kettenfahrzeug zu ermöglichen, ist die Arbeitsbreite der Frästrommeln größer als die Spurweite des Fahrzeugs ausgelegt.In order to enable safe maneuvering of the vehicle as a tracked vehicle, the working width of the milling drums is designed to be larger than the track width of the vehicle.

Die Vorteile der Erfindung liegen vor allem darin, daß eine mehrfache Minenräumung mit einem Fahrzeug mittels Flail- und Druckwalze durchgeführt wird, wobei der Einsatz wahlweise am Gerät einstellbar ist. Damit soll eine größere Räumsicherheit erreicht werden und eine Anpassung an verschiedene Böden vor Ort direkt möglich sein. Es hat sich nämlich gezeigt, daß ein Flail wegen des aufgeworfenen Erdreichs nur als Gassenräumer anwendbar ist, während eine dahintergeschaltete Walze den Boden wieder verdichtet und glättet und eine Flächenräumung erlaubt.The advantages of the invention are, above all, that a multiple demining with a vehicle by means of flail and pressure roller is performed, the use is optionally adjustable on the device. This is to achieve a greater Räumsicherheit and be directly possible to adapt to different soils on site. It has been shown that a Flail is applicable because of the raised soil only as Gassenräumer, while a roller behind it, the soil compacted and smoothed again and allows an area clearance.

Die Welle 6 wird mittels einer Kette oder Zahnriemen 9 und weiteren Antrieben vom Trägerfahrzeug angetrieben. Eine Walze 4 ist mittels Lagerung 7 beidseitig in Hebelarmen 12 gelagert, welche wiederum in Lagern 8 drehbar gelagert sind, und kann unabhängig von der Flailwelle gehoben und gesenkt werden. Die Verbindungsplatte 11 zwischen den Schubarmen 2 kann teilweise durchbrochen sein, um Blastwirkung einer explodierenden Mine nach oben hindurchzulassen.Figure 2, 3 show the detail front attachment with the thrust arms 2 and the 3-wall system with rotating percussion tools that are elastically attached to chains 5a on the horizontal shaft 6. The shaft 6 is driven by a chain or toothed belt 9 and other drives from the carrier vehicle. A roller 4 is supported by bearings 7 on both sides in lever arms 12, which in turn are rotatably mounted in bearings 8, and can be raised and lowered independently of the Flailwelle. The connecting plate 11 between the push arms 2 may be partially broken to allow upward blast action of an exploding mine.

Das Trägerfahrzeug 1 fährt auf den Raupen 1a im Arbeitseinsatz in Fahrtrichtung 10. Schubarme 2, welche beidseitig links und rechts am Fahrzeug in Lagern 2a schwenkbar nach oben/unten befestigt sind, tragen am äußersten Frontende ein Flegelsystem 3 mit elastisch an der waagerechten Welle 6 aufgehängten Schlagkörpern 5, welche bei angemessen hoher Drehzahl den Boden 13 durchpflügen mit der Drehrichtung 3a, welche die Schlagkörper von vorn nach hinten entsprechend dem Vortrieb des Fahrzeuges 1 durch den Boden treibt. Das Bodenmaterial wird dabei hinter das Flailsystem und vor die ebenfalls waagerecht angeordnete Walze 4 gefördert. Die in Drehrichtung 7a antreibbare Walze 4 wird vom Fahrzeug in fliegender Lagerung mitgeschoben und glättet und verdichtet den aufgeworfenen Boden wieder. Bei Bedarf kann die Walze aufgelastet oder entlastet werden mittels Gewichten oder einer Flüssigkeitsfüllung, um den Bodenanforderungen gerecht zu werden. Mittels Schubarmen 2 ist die Flailanordnung einschließlich Walze 4 nach oben/unten schwenkbar. Die Walze 4 kann mittels Lagerarmen 12 daneben auch unabhängig von dem Flail gehoben oder gesenkt werden in der dargestellten Ausbildung.The carrier vehicle 1 moves on the caterpillars 1a in the working direction in the direction of travel 10. push arms 2, which are mounted on both sides left and right on the vehicle in bearings 2a pivotally up / down, enter the outermost front end Lug system 3 with elastically suspended on the horizontal shaft 6 percussion bodies 5, which plow the ground 13 at a sufficiently high speed with the direction of rotation 3a, which drives the striker from front to back according to the propulsion of the vehicle 1 through the ground. The soil material is thereby conveyed behind the pile system and in front of the likewise horizontally arranged roll 4. The drivable in the direction of rotation 7a roller 4 is pushed by the vehicle in flying storage and smoothes and compacts the floor raised again. If necessary, the roller can be loaded or unloaded by weighting or liquid filling to meet the soil requirements. By means of thrust arms 2, the Flailanordnung including roller 4 is pivotally up / down. The roller 4 can also be lifted or lowered independently of the flange by means of bearing arms 12 in the illustrated embodiment.
