Abstract

A composite armor plating, especially for installation in motor vehicles, is provided, and comprises individual plates having an outer layer, of a protective material of great hardness, and an inner layer of a fiber material of lesser hardness. Respective steel edge reinforcements of predetermined thickness that each extend along at least one outer edge of each of the plates are provided. Each edge reinforcement covers at least a side edge of the outer layer, and is fixedly connected with such plate.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verbundpanzerung, insbesondere zum Einbau in Kraftfahrzeuge, bestehend aus Einzelplatten mit einer Außenschicht aus einem Schutzmaterial hoher Härte und einer Innenschicht aus einem Fasermaterial geringerer Härte. Derartige Platten sind an sich bekannt, wobei das die Außenschicht bildende Schutzmaterial hoher Härte, beispielsweise ein Keramikmaterial sein kann, während das die Innenschicht bildende Fasermaterial geringerer Härte, beispielsweise ein Glasfaserverbund sein kann.The invention relates to a composite armor, in particular for installation in motor vehicles, consisting of individual plates with an outer layer of a protective material of high hardness and an inner layer of a fiber material of lower hardness. Such plates are known per se, wherein the outer layer forming protective material of high hardness, for example, may be a ceramic material, while the inner layer forming fiber material of lower hardness, for example a glass fiber composite may be.

Ein problematischer Bereich derartiger Verbundpanzerungsplatten ist der Bereich der äußeren Kanten, in dem gegebenenfalls die Einzelplatten aneinander angesetzt werden. Dieser Bereich bildet eine Schwachstelle der Panzerung, insbesondere für Geschosse, die schräg auf diesen Bereich auftreffen. Es besteht dann die Gefahr, daß die Platte im Randbereich abbricht und das Geschoß oder Teile des Geschosses an der Außenkante der Platte vorbei oder zwischen zwei Platten hindurch in das Innere des Fahrzeugs gelangen. Besonders kritisch ist dies, wenn die Außenkanten der Platte bzw. der Platten in Flucht zu der Kante zwischen Fahrzeugtür und Karosserie liegen.A problematic area of such composite armor plates is the area of the outer edges, in which optionally the individual plates are attached to each other. This area is a weak point of armor, especially for projectiles that hit this area at an angle. It exists then the risk that the plate breaks off in the edge region and pass the projectile or parts of the projectile at the outer edge of the plate or between two plates into the interior of the vehicle. This is particularly critical if the outer edges of the plate or the plates are in alignment with the edge between the vehicle door and body.

Als nächster Stand der Technik ist die in US 3683828 beschriebene Panzerung anzusehen.As the closest prior art, the in US 3683828 to see described armor.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verbundpanzerung mit den eingangs und im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen so auszubilden, daß jede Einzelplatte auch im Bereich ihrer Außenkante oder Außenkanten einen ausreichenden Schutz auch gegen schräg auftreffende Geschosse gewährleistet.The invention has the object of providing a composite armor with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that each single plate ensures adequate protection even against obliquely impinging projectiles in the region of its outer edge or outer edges.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Verbundpanzerung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the composite armor according to the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, jede Platte der Verbundpanzerung längs mindestens einer ihrer Außenkanten mit einer zusätzlichen, die Außenschicht an der Seitenkante abdeckenden Kantenverstärkung zu versehen, die aus einem Stahl mit guten Festigkeitseigenschaften besteht und den Bereich der Außenkante der Platte vor dem Ausbrechen oder Aussplittern schützt. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich erwiesen, wenn diese Kantenverstärkung eine Winkelprofilleiste aufweist, deren erster Schenkel senkrecht zur Plattenoberfläche an der Seitenkante der Außenschicht entlanggeführt ist, während der zweite Schenkel parallel zur Plattenoberfläche verläuft und in die Platte integriert ist. Weiterhin ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der erste an der Außenschicht entlanggeführte Schenkel der Winkelprofilleiste die äußere Oberfläche der Außenschicht um eine vorgegebene Länge überragt. Die Verbindung zwischen der Kantenverstärkung und den Schichten der Platte kann mittels eines Klebers bewirkt werden.The basic idea of the invention is to provide each panel of the composite armor along at least one of its outer edges with an additional edge reinforcement covering the outer layer at the side edge, which consists of a steel with good strength properties and the area of the outer edge of the panel before breaking or chipping protects. To be particularly advantageous, it has been found that this edge reinforcement has an angle profile strip, the first leg is guided perpendicular to the plate surface at the side edge of the outer layer, while the second leg is parallel to the plate surface and is integrated into the plate. Furthermore, it is advantageous if the first leg guided along the outer layer of the angle profile strip, the outer surface of the Outer layer surmounted by a predetermined length. The connection between the edge reinforcement and the layers of the plate can be effected by means of an adhesive.

Im folgenden wird anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung ein Ausführungsbeispiel für eine Verbundpanzerung nach der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the following an embodiment of a composite armor according to the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Teil einer Platte einer Verbundpanzerung im Bereich einer Außenkante. Die Platte besitzt eine Außenschicht 1, beispielsweise aus einem Keramikmaterial, die durch eine Kleberschicht 4.1 mit einer Innenschicht 2, beispielsweise aus einem Glasfaserverbund, verbunden ist. Im Bereich der Außenkante der Platte ist eine Kantenverstärkung angeordnet, die eine Winkelprofilleiste 3 aus einem Stahl mit guten Festigkeitseigenschaften aufweist. Diese Winkelprofilleiste 3 ist an der Außenkante so angeordnet, daß ihr erster Schenkel 3.1 senkrecht zur Plattenoberfläche verläuft, die Seitenkante der Außenschicht 1 abdeckt und die Oberfläche der Außenschicht um eine vorgegebene Länge überragt. Der zweite Schenkel 3.2 der Winkelprofilleiste 3 verläuft parallel zur Plattenoberfläche und ist in die Platte integriert und zwar in die Innenschicht 2 derart, daß eine der Außenschicht einst zugekehrten Seite bündig mit der Grenzfläche zwischen Außenschicht 1 und Innenschicht 2 verläuft. Der zweite Schenkel 3.2 unterfaßt die Außenschicht 1 auf einem vorgegebenen Längenabschnitt. Die Verbindung zwischen dem zweiten Schenkel 3.2 der Winkelprofilleiste 3 und der Innenschicht 2 erfolgt über einen Kleber 4 und seine Verbindung mit der Außenschicht 1 über einen Kleber 4.2.The drawing shows a part of a plate of a composite armor in the region of an outer edge. The plate has an outer layer 1, for example of a ceramic material, which is connected by an adhesive layer 4.1 with an inner layer 2, for example of a glass fiber composite. In the region of the outer edge of the plate, an edge reinforcement is arranged, which has an angle profile strip 3 made of a steel with good strength properties. This angle profile strip 3 is arranged on the outer edge so that its first leg 3.1 is perpendicular to the plate surface, covering the side edge of the outer layer 1 and projects beyond the surface of the outer layer by a predetermined length. The second leg 3.2 of the angle profile strip 3 is parallel to the plate surface and is integrated into the plate and indeed in the inner layer 2 such that one of the outer layer once facing side is flush with the interface between outer layer 1 and inner layer 2. The second leg 3.2 underlines the outer layer 1 on a predetermined length. The connection between the second leg 3.2 of the angle profile strip 3 and the inner layer 2 via an adhesive 4 and its connection to the outer layer 1 via an adhesive 4.2.

In der Zeichnung ist angedeutet, daß Geschosse 5.1, die im Bereich der Außenkante auftreffen, sowie Geschosse 5.2, die schräg zur Plattenoberfläche in Richtung auf die Außenkante einfallen, die Platte im Bereich der Außenkante nicht zum Abbrechen oder Absplittern bringen können, weil diese durch die Kantenverstärkung, d.h. die Winkelprofilleiste 3 geschützt ist.In the drawing, it is indicated that projectiles 5.1, which impinge in the region of the outer edge, as well as projectiles 5.2, which obliquely to the plate surface in the direction of the outer edge, the plate in the region of the outer edge can not bring to breaking or splintering, because it is protected by the edge reinforcement, ie the angle profile strip 3.
