Definitions

  • an inert dynamically acting component is understood to be an inert protective component which does not contain any pyrotechnic medium and which is accelerated by the impact process directly or in conjunction with a medium which builds up pressure through the impact energy (for example, a bellows-plate sandwich).
  • a special protection against KE threats is usually built-in hitherto known approaches to improve the protection performance on introduced deflection lines, i. firmly connected to the object to be protected or the vehicle wall.
  • one or more elements with the above-described operation are arranged in a housing.
  • This can serve, for example, to build up a multilayered reactive protection or it is possible to use a plurality of reactive elements in a planar arrangement with or without damping intermediate layers to form a protective surface.
  • Operational / constructional issues as well as the protection of the structure of the vehicle and the environment against the effects of detonation of the explosive and thereby accelerated to speeds of more than 300 m / s (eg thin steel sheets) play an important role.
  • the patent DE 199 56 197 C2 also gives some examples for this.
  • glass has the property of causing beam disturbances upon penetration of an HL beam due to its specific high-pressure properties and the associated spontaneous volume changes, and thereby reducing its penetration depth. Furthermore, it is known that this effect of the jet disturbance is to be significantly increased by dynamically compacting the glass volume during the penetration of an HL steel by means of one or more layers of explosives or explosives (eg so-called pills). A similar, reinforcing effect also occurs with a strong lateral damming. However, such arrangements require very large lateral masses, which are predominantly dead masses.
  • the EP 0 689 028 A1 basically describes a composite additional armor with at least one explosive film.
  • the central active element of the composite consists of homogeneous materials which have the effect of the so-called collapse of the collapse (dynamic collapse). This effect has been known since the 1960s and is attributed to the specificity of the Hygoniot curve. Since this effect is due to the response of the crater to the dynamic loading of the material by the penetrating shaped charge jet, it can be enhanced by the additional introduction of stress waves by means of explosive layers. To improve their effectiveness, it makes sense to combine the explosive layers on the outer sides with metallic plates, which in the case of an angle between the threat and the plate load the impacting threat laterally.
  • the arrangement described in this document is a compact structure, which necessarily does not contain any air spaces, and which can only be effective in dynamic interaction.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a hybrid polyvalent total reactive protection arrangement as low as possible total mass against HL, FK and KE threats, which offers against each type of threat mentioned a higher protection potential than a merely focused on a type of threat protection arrangement.
  • high overall protection capacities should be achieved provided at the same time unacceptable battlefield loads and structural damage to be protected object itself be avoided.
  • the overall protection arrangement should also be adaptable and / or integrable to all surfaces to be specially protected or particularly exposed, such as in the tower, side and frontal area including the chain apron.
  • the performance of a ballistic protection is usually derived from its efficiency against a particular threat such as shaped charges or KE penetrators compared to a reference or reference armor.
  • the reference is a homogeneous steel plate of specific strength. But it can also be a comparative assessment with any other armor made.
  • Two quantities have been found to characterize the quality of an armor: the ratio of penetrated mass in the reference armor to the penetrated mass in the armor considered, ie the so-called mass effectiveness factor (E m ), and the ratio of the corresponding depths, ie the so-called space efficiency factor (E s ).
  • E m mass effectiveness factor
  • E s space efficiency factor
  • a criterion for the quality of a protective structure can then be the product of both factors.
  • a weighting is suitably between E m and E s make.
  • Another criterion which is decisive for the system for evaluating the ballistic protection is its inert protective capability, ie its performance in the case of non-detonation of the explosive film or in the case of a dismantled reactive device or when the ignition aid is switched off. This is for special armor against shaped charges at values up to 3.5, with KE protective structures, however, at most 2.0.
  • the invention relates to a vehicle structure or generally on a structure to be protected fixed or releasably applied or integrated in this combined total protection arrangement against shaped charges, Flachkegelladungen, swirling and aerodynamically stabilized balancing projectiles and splinters.
  • the overall protection arrangement consists in its highest reactive expansion stage of two reactive protection zones and an intermediate inert or inert dynamic inner protection zone.
  • the threat facing side of the front protection zone on a reactive structure primarily for the defense of hollow charge threats.
  • FK and KE threats should be disturbed as far as possible in this frontal protection zone, or the direction of action or performance should already be fanned out, or at least a corresponding disturbance should be initiated.
  • the inner protection zone (also with dynamically effective facilities) serves above all to ward off KE threats.
  • the rear, vehicle-side protection zone is formed in the highest expansion stage as a reactive device for intercepting the residual power of shaped charge jets and penetrating KE projectiles.
  • the rear protection zone can also advantageously consist of an inert, dynamically acting or structured / multilayered zone or even represent only a passive residual armor.
  • the inner protection zone may also contain a reactive component.
  • the overall protection arrangement consists of three already powerful components or protection zones: a front, reactive protection zone, a second inert inner or inert dynamic protection zone (non-reactive modules, Beulblech arrangements, massive, layered or structured Protective layers) and a third, rear inert, inert dynamic or even reactive protection zone.
  • the individual protection zones complement each other optimally in their effect and, together with the object wall, form an adapted total protection or, by integrating the supporting structure, a structure-optimized overall protection.
  • the hybrid polyvalent overall protection arrangement is applicable both as a tower or weapon protection, side and frontal protection as well as protection of the chassis (chain apron).
  • the front and rear reactive protection zones are triggered or ignited by the penetrating threat at a time interval.
  • mass or mass acceleration ratios can be achieved with a resilient or variable-thickness dynamic intermediate structure with maximum reactive protection deployment greatly reduced compared to conventional reactive armor structures vehicle load.
  • the energy or the pulse transmitted to the wall corresponds to the energy or the momentum of the protection modules acting in the threat direction.
  • the front, reactive component can be accelerated without harm to the structure harmless than other reactive protective structures, if a dynamically flexible / in depth variable design of the inner, inert-dynamically acting protection zone.
  • the front reactive protection zone for example, according to the in the patent DE 199 56 197 C2 described type of a decomposing into fine particles or produce a nebulizing or delaminating material.
  • FIG. 1 shows the basic structure of a hybrid polyvalent total reactive protection arrangement according to the invention both in a predominantly vertical arrangement (FIG. 1A) and in an inclined construction (FIG. 1B) with the corresponding threat spectrum (FIG. 1C).
  • a total protection arrangement 1A formed from the protection zones A, B, C and the supporting structure D
  • a solid, layered or structured KE defense zone B (4) in front of a vehicle or another structure D to be protected which can also take over the function to intercept any remaining power.
  • the KE-defense zone 4 is located between two limiting, launched or mounted protection zones A (3) and C (5), where at least the protection zone A, at the highest level also the protection zone C and in special constructions also the inner protection zone B. are provided with a reactive in particular against shaped charges reactive device.
  • the overall protection arrangement is provided in the different figures with a dashed frame, the actual, inventive protection arrangement of the residual power zone in terms of a protected (usually bearing) structure, e.g. an armored vehicle, demarcates.
  • a protected structure e.g. an armored vehicle
  • FIG. 1B shows such an overall protection arrangement in the complete expansion stage with all three protection zones according to FIG. 1A in an angled position (measured on the vehicle wall).
  • FIG. 1C the threat types hollow charge (HL) 6, flat cone charge (FK) 7, aerodynamically stabilized balancing bullets 8, spin-stabilized bullets 9 and splitter 10 are compiled.
  • the protection zone C of the overall protection arrangement 95 in FIG. 20B in which the vehicle structure 2 (zone D) the protection zones 96 as the first threat-side zone (reactive HL protection in combination with inert or inert-dynamic KE protection, protection zone A / B) and 97 are preceded by zone A / B following protection zone C with rear wall connected to the vehicle structure and an angled front side (reactive, inert or inert-dynamic protection).
