Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the electrical control of a machine weapon, wherein under control, first of all, the clamping, securing and unlocking of the weapon and, furthermore, the firing of the weapon and possibly the sensing of certain states on the weapon should be understood.
  • a device is in the document US 2,413,416 disclosed.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for electrical control of a machine gun, which can be used on weapons types of different training and which allows a machine gun, which is usually operated manually, to operate from a remote control, so for example from the interior a battle tank out.
  • a device for electrically controlling a machine gun which is characterized by a laterally releasably attached to the weapon housing, or in which a controllable by an electric control device electric drive motor is arranged, which is parallel to the weapon longitudinal axis Screw spindle drives, on which a spindle nut from a starting position against the firing direction is movable back into an end position, on which a driver is arranged such that a guided on the housing, coupled to the weapon lock clamping bolt is in its movement path and from an initial position against the on the spring closure force acting weapon lock back into a clamping position in the end position of the spindle nut is movable, in which it by a arranged on the housing locking lever in the end position of the spindle nut, a "secured” state of the weapon e sammlung, is blocked and released in the initial position of the spindle nut through the spindle nut, which corresponds to the "unlocked" state of the weapon
  • the basic idea of the invention is to provide a device, which can preferably be fastened to a machine gun by means of a quick-release mechanism, which is actuated by a u.U. in some distance arranged electrical control device certain operations of the weapon control, such as the tensioning, securing, releasing and firing of the weapon, automatically enabled.
  • the device first contains a driven by an electric motor screw, with their help, as explained in more detail below with reference to an embodiment, the clamping of the closure can be performed, the training is such that the weapon after tightening initially secured State and a release and thus a run-ahead of the shutter and the exercise of certain functions, such as the cartridge feed, only be executed when the automatic backup is canceled, ie the weapon is placed in the unlocked state due to another signal.
  • a particular advantage of the inventive device is that the arranged on the spindle nut driver is not firmly connected to the clamping bolt and is preferably mounted so sprung on the spindle nut that when reaching the end position no overload can occur. Through this decoupling of clamping bolt and driver an operation of the weapon by hand is always possible.
  • the device may be advantageously designed such that the device further comprises an electromagnet for firing the weapon, and a number of sensors may be provided which detect certain states of the device and the weapon.
  • a sensor may be arranged so that it determines whether ever a weapon is attached to the device. This can be important, for example, in stabilized operation on a main battle tank.
  • sensors may be present which indicate the position of the weapon closure and / or perform a shot count.
  • the in the Fig. 1 to 4 The device shown has a housing 2, which is attached to a machine gun W via a not-shown in detail and dependent on the weapon type quick-release coupling.
  • the quick release coupling is detachable by means of a rotary handle 4.
  • an electric drive motor 1 is arranged, of an in Fig. 4 shown electrical control device 16 is controlled from.
  • the drive motor 1 drives a screw 6, which runs parallel to the weapon longitudinal axis L and on a spindle nut 10 from a starting position at the motor end of the screw 6 against the weft direction in an in Fig. 2 shown end position is movable.
  • a driver 9 is resiliently mounted and arranged such that a guided on the housing 2 and coupled with the weapon lock clamping bolt 5 is located in the path of movement of the driver, that the clamping bolt 5 from an initial position, not shown acting against the weapon lock Spring force back into an in Fig. 2 shown clamping position in the end position of the spindle nut 10 can be moved.
  • clamping bolt 5 and driver 9 are basically decoupled, so that the clamping bolt 5 and thus the shutter can also be operated manually.
  • the clamping bolt 5 is captured by a locking lever and held in Fig. 3 is shown.
  • the locking lever is shown in solid lines in a blocking position and designated in this position with 14a.
  • the locking lever 14a is pivotable about an axis 14c against the force of a torsion spring from the locking position into the release position denoted by 14b.
  • the locking lever 14a In the in Fig. 2 illustrated end position of the spindle nut 10, the locking lever 14a is held in the locked position, so that the clamping bolt in the in Fig. 3 shown position 5a is blocked. This corresponds to the secure state of the weapon, in which the weapon lock is also held and can not run ahead.
  • the spindle nut 10 When a corresponding signal coming from the electrical control device 16, the spindle nut 10 is again in its initial position, it pivots the locking lever in the release position designated 14b and the clamping bolt 5a moves forward together with the weapon lock under spring force until the clamping bolt in the Fig. 3 occupies 5b designated position. This corresponds to the unlocked state of the weapon. During the advance, the weapon lock performs corresponding functions, such as the supply of cartridges.
  • an electromagnet 3 for firing the weapon is arranged on the basis of a coming from the electric control device Aberiesignals. Furthermore, a first sensor 7 is arranged in the housing 2, which is connected to the electrical control device and determines whether the housing 2 is arranged on a weapon W. Further sensors 11 and 12 indicate the positions "front closure” and “rear closure”, respectively, and a sensor 8 senses via the tensioning bolt 5 the closing return and forwards pulses to the electric control device, by means of which a shot count is carried out.
  • Fig. 4 shows the same representation as Fig. 1 in which the already described mechanical parts of the device, namely the drive motor 1, the housing 2 and the electromagnet 3 for firing the weapon are shown in the same way as in FIG Fig. 1 , Fig. 4 also shows an electrical control device 16, which is on the one hand connected to a power supply 18 and on the other hand connected via a line 19 to an operator unit 17, from which control signals are passed via a line 20, on the one hand via a line 22 to the drive motor 1 and on the other be forwarded via a line 21 to the solenoid 3.
  • a manual operation of the device is possible. This can be done in the way that, like out Fig. 2 can be seen at the end 23 of the screw 6, a crank or a handwheel is recognized.
