Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for bearing, which on a sight, such as a viewing block, angled mirror, etc., on an armored vehicle in particular or is installed in shelters.
  • vision blocks or angle mirrors are often used in the vicinity.
  • These are solid blocks of glass or other optically transparent materials manufactured so that the observer against massive external influences, especially in Use case (splinter effect, shelling) is protected.
  • An angle mirror for armored vehicles and its arrangement on the vehicle discloses DE 41 00 229 A1.
  • a viewing block for observing the external environment is mentioned in DE 100 52 048 A1, which is made of a translucent material.
  • DE 298 22 897 U1 describes an optical system for a sighting device with a mirrored one Brand. As a brand, emitting LEDs are used in the red area, which is reflected for the user of the sighting device on lenses of this device.
  • the viewing blocks or angle mirrors are arranged in such a way that the crew can have all-round observation (observation angle in azimuth 360 °), which can be achieved by using several viewing blocks / angle mirrors. Due to the spatial and geometric conditions within the shelters or the vehicles, there is a need for the task of close-range observation to be performed by several people.
  • Magnifying optical and / or optronic vision devices are used for the observation of the wider environment as well as for the identification and combating of the observed object in the entire surveillance area, which are arranged as a target periscope or as an all-round vision periscope.
  • the magnifying optical / optronic viewing device To identify and / or combat by the individual observers by the Objects that are discovered in the viewing blocks must be viewed using the magnifying optical / optronic viewing device be directed at the object detected in each case. To do this, the operator of the magnifying Instruction device instructed by the operator of the viewing block who targeted the object, which triggers mutual communication.
  • tip sights are on the viewing block or Angle mirror provided with which the area in which the observed object is located can be selected. Fields of view are common in the sectors “Left”, “Middle” and “Right". Each button corresponds to a specific tower angle, which serves as the setpoint for the position control loop of the periscope is activated. The setpoint is determined via the position the viewing block and the addressed sector manually or using a computer.
  • the direction angle specified by the observer on the viewing block with a An error is determined that is less than half the field of view of the magnifying viewing device.
  • the invention takes up the task of showing a device on a sighting device, with which a simple, preferably automatic destination assignment is possible and the aforementioned Disadvantages are avoided.
  • the invention is based on the idea of the entrance window (outside viewing window) and the exit window To arrange a row of light-emitting diodes (LED) for each sighting means (viewing window inside), which are positioned so that they are at least at the entrance window for the observer are visible at the top and bottom of the field of view.
  • LED light-emitting diodes
  • Row of diodes may also be visible at the top or bottom of the field of vision, however preferably do not protrude into the field of view, especially a light emission at dusk or avoid darkness.
  • the principle of bearing is based on a paired control of one diode each outer and inner row of diodes via control electronics, with the specification a single number (bearing number) or a programmable pair of diodes a clear direction is possible.
  • the diodes of the outer row of diodes are activated mirrored to the inner. This creates a predetermined bearing line that simulates a predetermined angle at the same time.
  • the eye eye point
  • the eye adjusts itself the two driven diodes and runs visually through the pair of diodes formed bearing line. If the object is not on this bearing line, another will be Controlled pair of diodes until the generated bearing line and eye line match the object.
  • the diode pairs cover the entire angular range of the field of view From sight.
  • the bearing lines created in this version go through a common one DF point, the center of the sight.
  • a further development of the invention is also the programming of diode pairs to be controlled possible, the generated bearing lines not through the center of the sight go.
  • Diode pairs are defined here that could emulate a bearing line. This then, like the key figures, are stored in the system computer. The one controlled The diode pair then defines the bearing angle.
  • the control of the diode pairs or pairs can be done manually or by the System computers can be determined automatically in a predetermined time interval, whereby then the operator is given the opportunity to inform the system computer that this is currently set direction is in order and no further controls are necessary.
  • the system computer stores this information.
  • the installation position of the sighting means in relation to the vehicle, preferably to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle can by the position of the sighting means and by the controlled Diodes set the angle within the sight clearly the direction of targeted object in relation to the vehicle (vehicle longitudinal axis) can be determined.
  • This Direction is recognized by a system computer and on the corresponding devices or equipment transmitted. In particular, the direction is given as information given the magnifying viewing device.
  • FIG. 1 shows a top view of an armored vehicle 1 with a turret 2 and a weapon 3 on the turret 2.
  • a sketch of an all-round observation area of 360 ° in azimuth is also indicated, which is covered by viewing means 4 (4.1-4.n), only two of, for example, 8 viewing means 4.1, 4.2 being indicated for the sake of clarity.
  • the installation means 4 are positioned differently due to their installation on the vehicle 1. In this exemplary embodiment, these positions are described by an angle ⁇ or angle ⁇ with respect to the vehicle longitudinal axis 1.1 and are stored in a system computer 11. An eye (eye point) of an observer who is not shown is identified by 5.
  • Fig. 2 shows one of the viewing means 4 in a perspective view.
  • the viewing means 4 a viewing block, has one on the entrance window 6 (outside viewing window) LED row 7 outside and at the exit window 8 (view window inside) an LED row 9 inside on.
  • the LED row 9 on the exit window 8 is preferably positioned so that it does not protrude into a field of view 10 of the viewing block 4.
  • LED row 7 on entrance window 6 is positioned so that it is at the top or bottom for the observer of the field of view 10 is visible.
  • the number sequence n to -n of the LEDs in the inner row of LEDs 9 is mirror-inverted to the number sequence n to -n of the LEDs of the outer LED row 7.
  • a bearing line P 0 is shown here, which leads through the diodes "0" of both rows 9, 7.
  • This number of diodes -n to n serves as a characteristic number K -n to n of the bearing angle ⁇ -n to n determined during the bearing.
  • Fig. 3 shows the principle of electrical direction finding, which in Fig. 4 is based on the view block is practically shown.
  • This principle is based on the fact that in pairs an LED, here the LED "-3" of the inner LED row 7 and the LED “-3” of the outer 9, via control electronics, not shown here, which is integrated, for example, in the system computer 11, can be controlled, so that by specifying a number of diodes “-3” a single characteristic number K, namely "-3” is determined, by means of which the system computer 11 provides a clear directional reference with respect to the observer (eye point 5). Both LEDs "-3” describe a predetermined angle ⁇ -3 , which the observer's eye 5 follows to aim at the object 12.
  • the two LED rows 7, 9 thus form an electronic sighting disk 20.
  • each viewing block 4 1-n has a field of view 10 1-n , which limits the view of the eye 5 due to its field of view boundaries 13 1-n .
  • the eye 5 looks along the LEDs of the inner and the outer LED rows 7, 9, which are controlled manually or the system computer 11, in order to aim at the object 12.
  • the pair of diodes which is then in direct bearing with the eye 5 and the object 12 and forms a specific bearing line P -n to n and thus simulates the bearing angle ⁇ -n to n , is determined by the system computer 11 as a characteristic number K -n to n , In the present case shown here, the key figure is "K 1 ".
  • the individual pairs of diodes of the electric sighting disk 20 are activated one after the other, in the case of manual presetting by pushing a button (not shown) in the area or in the vicinity of the viewing block 4, so that an adjacent diode of the inner LED row 7 lights up on the left or right.
  • the corresponding diodes of the outer row of LEDs 9 are driven in reverse order, that is to say the neighboring diodes on the right or left (see link in FIG. 3).
  • the control of the LEDs -5 to 5 takes place via a signal conditioning circuit of the system computer 11, not shown in detail, and by means of pulsed signals of a defined length. Depending on which of the diode pairs -5 to 5 meet the bearing condition, this information is obtained from the key position and passed on to the system computer 11.
  • the weapon controller 16 can be used by the system computer 11 to sum up the information Alignment of the weapon 3 driven to the object 12 and aligned the weapon 3 by this become.
  • FIG. 5 shows an arrangement with which it is possible to set up a circular mirror disc 14 and / or weapon-parallel aiming device (not shown in detail) with control 15 or the weapon 3 to aim automatically at the targeted object 12 via a weapon control 16.
  • the object is not in the field of view 10.1 of the one described here Viewing block 4.1, but in the field of view 10.3, another is offset by about 160 ° Viewing block 4.3, this viewing block 4.3 connects to the system computer 11, whereby in turn a control 16 of the weapon station (tower 2) is controlled to the Gun 3 taking into account the angle ⁇ in the viewing block 4.3 in the field of view 10.3 of the Bring viewing block 4.3.
