Description

Einrichtung zum Schutz von Objekten gegen als Lenk-Flugkörper ausgebildete Munitionen Device for protecting objects against ammunition designed as guided missiles
Beschreibungdescription
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Schutz von Objekten gegen als Lenk- Flugkörper ausgebildete Munitionen mit Warn-Sensoren zur Erfassung eines herannahenden Lenk-Flugkörpers sowie Wirkmitteln zur Abwehr des Lenk-Flugkörpers.The invention relates to a device for protecting objects against ammunition designed as a guided missile with warning sensors for detecting an approaching guided missile as well as active means for defense against the guided missile.
Als Objelcte kommen dabei sowohl Fahrzeuge, insbesondere Kampffahrzeuge, als auch stationäre Einrichtungen wie kleinere Gebäude, transportable Shelter und dergleichen in Betracht. Es ist bekannt, abstandswirksame Schutzsysteme durch unabhängige Integration von Warn-Sensoren und Wirkmitteln auf dem zu schützenden Objekt zu realisieren. Dies führt insbesondere bei Fahrzeugen zu relativ aufwändigen Nachrüstlösungen, da bei der Integration der Einzelkomponenten jeweils umfangreiche Justierarbeiten und sehr präzise mechanische Bearbeitungen auf der Fahrzeugoberfläche durchgeführt werden müssen. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Art so auszugestalten, dass eine autarke Selbstschutz-Plattform entsteht, die auf den Objekten adaptiert werden kann und zum Rundumschutz gegen als Lenk-Flugkörper ausgebildete Munitionen dient.Both vehicles, in particular combat vehicles, and stationary facilities such as smaller buildings, transportable shelters and the like can be considered as objects. It is known to implement distance-effective protection systems by independently integrating warning sensors and active agents on the object to be protected. This leads to relatively complex retrofit solutions, particularly for vehicles, since extensive adjustment work and very precise mechanical processing must be carried out on the vehicle surface when integrating the individual components. The invention is based on the object of designing a device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that an autonomous self-protection platform is created which can be adapted to the objects and is used for all-round protection against ammunition designed as a guided missile.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, dass alle für die Erfassung notwendigen Warn-Sensoren und alle für die Abwehr notwendigen Wirkmittel auf einem gemeinsamen Geräteträger angeordnet sind, der auf dem zu schützenden Objekt angeordnet oder auf ihm montierbar ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that all the warning sensors required for the detection and all the active agents required for the defense are arranged on a common device carrier which is arranged on the object to be protected or can be mounted thereon.
Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich erwiesen, wenn auf dem Geräteträger mindestens ein Warn-Sensor angeordnet ist und im Bereich unterhalb des Warn-Sensors bzw. der Warn-Sensoren mindestens in Elevation richtbare Abschussvorrichtungen für abschießbare Wirkmittel derart angeordnet sind, dass das Blickfeld des Warn-Sensors bzw. der Warn-Sensoren in Azimut und Elevation nicht eingeschränkt ist.It has proven to be particularly advantageous if at least one warning sensor is arranged on the device carrier and in the area below the warning sensor or the warning sensors, at least in elevation, directional launching devices for launchable active agents are arranged such that the field of vision of the warning Sensors or the warning sensors in azimuth and elevation is not restricted.
Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, sowohl die Sensorik als auch die Wirkmittel funktionsoptimiert auf einem kompakten Geräteträger anzuordnen. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass bei der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung der Adaptionsaufwand gering ist und somit eine hohe Flexibilität in bezug auf missionsabhängigen Einsatz entsteht.The basic idea of the invention is to arrange both the sensors and the active agents in a function-optimized manner on a compact device carrier. It has been shown that the adaptation effort is low in the device according to the invention and thus a high degree of flexibility with regard to mission-dependent use arises.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung ist es möglich, die Achsen von Sensoren und Wirkmitteln, insbesondere der Abschusseinrichtungen für Wirkmittel, unter Berücksichtigung von Parallaxenkorrektur, Aufsatzwinkel etc. von Anfang an so zu harmonisieren, dass eine aufwändige Justierung nach dem Anbau der Einrichtung an das Objekt entfällt. Die Einrichtung kann so ausgebildet und angeordnet werden, dass eine Aufklärung der Bedrohung und deren Bekämpfung unabhängig vom Einbauort über einen azimutalen Winkel bis 360° ermöglicht wird. Die Einrichtung ist so flexibel gestaltet, dass sie sowohl auf Kampffahrzeugen als auch auf stationären Einrichtungen eingesetzt werden kann. Die Schnittstelle zu den vorgesehenen Trägersystemen kann einheitlich ausgeführt werden, so dass die "autarke Selbstschutz-Plattform" nicht zielsystemspezifisch ausgeführt werden muss. Dennoch ist die Ausstattung mit Sensoren und Wirkmitteln frei konfigurierbar. Die Einrichtung ist so konzipiert, dass sie unter Panzerschutz fernbedient werden kann.With the device according to the invention, it is possible to harmonize the axes of sensors and active devices, in particular the launching devices for active devices, taking into account parallax correction, attachment angle, etc., from the outset in such a way that complex adjustment after the device is attached to the object is eliminated. The device can be designed and arranged in such a way that it is possible to solve the threat and to combat it regardless of the installation location over an azimuthal angle of up to 360 °. The facility is designed so flexibly that it can be used on combat vehicles as well as on stationary facilities. The interface to the intended carrier systems can be carried out uniformly, so that the "self-sufficient self-protection platform" does not have to be carried out specifically for the target system. Nevertheless, the equipment is with Sensors and active agents freely configurable. The device is designed so that it can be operated remotely under armored protection.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung sind vorzugsweise an und auf einem Geräteträger Warn-Sensoren und im Bereich unterhalb der Warn-Sensoren richtbare Abschussvorrichtungen für abschießbare Wirkmittel, beispielsweise Wurfbecher zum Abschießen von Wurfkörpern, angeordnet und zwar derart, dass das Blickfeld der Warn-Sensoren durch die Abschussvorrichtungen in Azimut und Elevation nicht eingeschränkt ist. Oben auf dem Geräteträger im Bereich oberhalb der Warn-Sensoren kann eine Einheit für elektronische/elektrooptische Wirkmittel angeordnet sein. Durch die Anordnung in verschiedenen horizontalen Ebenen wird erreicht, dass sich Sensoren und Wirkmittel nicht stören. Durch die Abschussvorrichtungen für abschießbare Wirkmittel können anfliegende Lenk-Flugkörper mit pyrotechnischen Mitteln gestört werden. So kann beispielsweise eine multispektrale Nebelwand erzeugt werden. Durch elektronische/elektrooptische Wirkmittel kann beispielsweise ein enggebündelter Lichtstrahl von einer gleichmäßig betriebenen oder modulierten Lichtquelle, beispielsweise einem Laser, ausgesendet werden, durch die das Lenksystem des Lenk-Flugkörpers gestört wird.In the device according to the invention, warning sensors and, in the area below the warning sensors, directional launching devices for launchable active agents, for example throwing cups for firing throwing bodies, are preferably arranged on and on a device carrier in such a way that the field of vision of the warning sensors is seen by the launching devices is not restricted in azimuth and elevation. A unit for electronic / electro-optical active agents can be arranged on top of the device carrier in the area above the warning sensors. The arrangement in different horizontal levels ensures that sensors and active agents do not interfere. The launching devices for launchable agents can disrupt incoming guided missiles with pyrotechnic means. For example, a multispectral smoke screen can be created. By means of electronic / electro-optical agents, for example, a narrowly focused light beam can be emitted from a uniformly operated or modulated light source, for example a laser, by which the guidance system of the guided missile is disrupted.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung, bei welcher der Geräteträger als schmal aufragende Einheit ausgebildet ist, ist der Geräteträger über ein Knickgelenk auf einer Grundplatte angeordnet, derart, dass mindestens ein Teil der außenwirksamen Ausstattung der Einrichtung auf und ab geschwenkt werden kann.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention, in which the device carrier is designed as a narrowly projecting unit, the device carrier is arranged on a base plate via an articulated joint in such a way that at least part of the externally effective equipment of the device can be pivoted up and down.
Durch das Aufschwenken erhält man unterschiedliche Höhenniveaus im operationeilen Betrieb für Ausblick- und Wirkungsachsen, wodurch eine gegenseitige Beeinflussung der Baugruppen der "autarken Selbstschutz-Plattform" selbst über den gesamten azimutalen Bereich von 360° ausgeschlossen wird.By swinging open different height levels are obtained in operational operation for outlook and effect axes, whereby a mutual influence of the components of the "self-sufficient self-protection platform" is excluded even over the entire azimuthal range of 360 °.
In der abgeschwenkten Position erhält man eine relativ kompakte, niedrigbauende Einheit. Dies ist besonders wichtig beim Transport von Kampffahrzeugen mit montierter "autarker Selbstschutz-Plattform" zur Sicherstellung der Einhaltung des Lademaßes. Im Folgenden wird anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen ein Ausfuhrungsbeispiel für eine Einrichtung nach der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the pivoted-down position, a relatively compact, low-profile unit is obtained. This is particularly important when transporting combat vehicles with an assembled "self-sufficient self-protection platform" to ensure compliance with the loading dimension. An exemplary embodiment of a device according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In den Fig. 1 bis 4 ist eine Einrichtung zum Schutz von Objekten gegen als Lenkflugkörper ausgebildete Munitionen, im Folgenden "autarke Selbstschutz- Plattform" genannt, dargestellt, die auf der Oberfläche O eines nicht näher dargestellten Objektes, beispielsweise eines Kampffahrzeugs, angeordnet ist. Sie besitzt einen als schmal auf- ragende Einheit ausgebildeten Geräteträger 5, der über ein Knickgelenk 5a mit einer Grundplatte 5c verbunden ist, die fest auf der Oberfläche O angeordnet ist. Mittels einer Antriebsvorrichtung 5b ist der Geräteträger 5 um die Achse B des Knickgelenks 5a aus der in den Fig. 1 bis 3 mit ausgezogenen Linien dargestellten aufgeschwenkten Position um 90° in eine gestrichelt dargestellte abgeschwenkte Position schwenkbar. Auf dem Geräteträger 5 ist ein Gehäuse 6 angeordnet, in das seitlich je nach Ausstattung einer bis vier Warn-Sensoren 1 integriert sind. Auf dem Gehäuse 6 ist mittels eines Richtantriebs 2a in Azimut richtbar eine Einheit 2 elektromscher/elektrooptischer Wirkmittel 2 um die Achse A des Geräteträgers 5 drehbar und in Elevation um den Winkel + δ schwenkbar angeordnet. Die Warn- Sensoren 1 erfassen einen Ausblickwinkel . Es entsteht somit auf dem Geräteträger 5 eine kompakte Einheit aus Warn-Sensoren 1 und elektronischen/elektro-optischen Wirkmitteln 2, die in dem Gehäuse 6 zusammengefasst wird. Die Anordnung der elektronischen/elektrooptischen Wirkmittel 2 oberhalb der Warn- Sensoren 1 ermöglicht einen uneingeschränkten Richtbereich dieser Wirkmittel 2 in Azimut. Es finden keine Ausblendungen durch andere Komponenten der Selbstschutz- Plattform statt.1 to 4 show a device for protecting objects against ammunition designed as guided missiles, hereinafter referred to as "self-sufficient self-protection platform", which is arranged on the surface O of an object, not shown, for example a combat vehicle. It has a device carrier 5, which is designed as a narrow, projecting unit and is connected via an articulated joint 5a to a base plate 5c, which is arranged firmly on the surface O. By means of a drive device 5b, the device carrier 5 can be pivoted about the axis B of the articulated joint 5a from the pivoted-open position shown in solid lines in FIGS. 1 to 3 by 90 ° into a pivoted-off position shown in broken lines. A housing 6 is arranged on the device carrier 5, in which one to four warning sensors 1 are integrated laterally, depending on the equipment. A unit 2 of electromechanical / electro-optical active means 2 is arranged on the housing 6 by means of a directional drive 2a in azimuth so as to be rotatable about the axis A of the device carrier 5 and pivotable in elevation by the angle + δ. The warning sensors 1 detect an outlook angle. A compact unit of warning sensors 1 and electronic / electro-optical active means 2 is thus formed on the device carrier 5, which unit is combined in the housing 6. The arrangement of the electronic / electro-optical agents 2 above the warning sensors 1 enables an unrestricted directional range of these agents 2 in azimuth. There are no fades out by other components of the self-protection platform.
Auch das Blickfeld der Warn-Sensoren 1 wird in Azimut und Elevation durch keine anderen Komponenten eingeschränkt.The field of view of the warning sensors 1 is also not restricted in azimuth and elevation by any other components.
Der Platz im Bereich unterhalb der Warn-Sensoren 1 wird für den Einbau der Einhei- ten 3 mit Abschussvorrichtungen 3 a für abschießbare Wirkmittel genutzt, die im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel als Wurf becher zum Abschießen von Wurf körpern ausgebildet sind. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist zu beiden Seiten des Geräteträgers 5 je eine Einheit 3 mit mehreren Abschussvorrichtungen 3a installiert. Die einzelnen Abschussvorrichtungen 3 a, also die Wurf becher, können mittels einer Stelleinrichtung 7 in Elevation gerichtet werden. Die Einheiten 3 sind mittelsThe space in the area below the warning sensors 1 is used for the installation of the units 3 with firing devices 3 a for firable active agents, which in the exemplary embodiment shown are designed as throwing cups for firing throwing bodies. In the exemplary embodiment shown, a unit 3 with a plurality of launching devices 3a is installed on both sides of the equipment carrier 5. The individual launching devices 3a, that is to say the throwing cup, can be directed in elevation by means of an adjusting device 7. The units 3 are by means of
Antriebsvorrichtungen 3b (z.B. elektrische Sperrbolzenmechanik mit Federn) in Azimut richtbar. Die Richtbarkeit der Abschussvorrichtungen in Azimut und Elevation ist bei dieser Anordnung, d.h. links und rechts neben dem Geräteträger 5, nicht eingeschränkt. Der Richtbereich der Abschussvorrichtungen 3a in Elevation ist in Fig. 4 mit γ bezeichnet. Der Richtbereich der Einheiten 3 in Azimut ist in Fig. 3 mit ß bezeichnet.Drive devices 3b (e.g. electrical locking pin mechanism with springs) can be aimed in azimuth. The directionality of the launchers in azimuth and elevation is with this arrangement, i.e. left and right next to the equipment rack 5, not restricted. The directional range of the launching devices 3a in elevation is designated by γ in FIG. 4. The directional range of the units 3 in azimuth is denoted by β in FIG. 3.
Der Geräteträger 5 ist so ausgestaltet, dass sich direkt unterhalb des Gehäuses 6 ein umschlossener, frei verfügbarer Bauraum 4 ergibt. Dieser Bauraum 4 ist durch den Geräteträger gegen äußere Einwirkungen geschützt und kann für die Integration von elektrischen und elektronischen Bauelementen, also für die Elektronik, Energieverteiler, Lagesensor, Kabel usw. genutzt werden.The device carrier 5 is designed such that an enclosed, freely available installation space 4 results directly below the housing 6. This installation space 4 is protected against external influences by the equipment carrier and can be used for the integration of electrical and electronic components, that is to say for the electronics, energy distributor, position sensor, cable, etc.
Durch die Anordnung aller beschriebenen Komponenten auf dem gemeinsamen Geräteträger 5 entfallen umfangreiche Justierarbeiten von Warn-Sensoren 1 und Wirkmitteln 2 bzw. 3 a zueinander. Bei der Adaption der autarken Selbstschutz-Plattform auf Fahrzeugen ermöglicht die um die Achse B des Knickgelenks 5a abgeschwenkte Position des Geräteträgers 5 die Einhaltung von Nerlademaßen. Die Funktionsfähigkeit der richtbaren Einheiten 3 für die Abschussvorrichtungen 3 a, die derart angeordnet sind, dass sie das Einklappen des Geräteträgers 5 nicht behindern, bleibt auch bei eingeklappter Stellung des Geräteträgers 5 erhalten.The arrangement of all the components described on the common equipment carrier 5 eliminates the need for extensive adjustment work of warning sensors 1 and active means 2 or 3a to one another. When adapting the self-sufficient self-protection platform to vehicles, the position of the device carrier 5 pivoted about the axis B of the articulated joint 5 a enables the maintenance of ner loading dimensions. The operability of the directable units 3 for the launching devices 3 a, which are arranged in such a way that they do not hinder the folding in of the device carrier 5, is retained even when the device carrier 5 is in the folded position.
Im Fuß des Knickgelenks 5a sind die mechanischen und elektrischen Schnittstellen integriert.The mechanical and electrical interfaces are integrated in the foot of the articulated joint 5a.
In Fig. 5 und 6 ist eine Variante der Ausfuhrungsform nach den Fig. 1 bis 4 dargestellt, die sich von dieser Ausführungsform dadurch unterscheidet, dass die Grundplatte, die in Fig. 5 mit 5c' bezeichnet ist, mit der Oberfläche O des Objekts mittels eines Richtantriebs 8 in Azimut richtbar verbunden ist.5 and 6 show a variant of the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4, which differs from this embodiment in that the base plate, which is designated 5c 'in FIG. 5, with the surface O of the object by means of a directional drive 8 is connected in azimuth.
Die übrigen Teile der Ausführungsform nach Fig. 5 und 6 entsprechen genau den Teilen der Ausfuhrungsformen nach Fig. 1 bis 4 und sind mit den gleichen Bezugsziffern bezeichnet. Bei der Ausfuhrungsform nach Fig. 5 und 6 ist es möglich, die gesamte Selbstschutz-Plattform in Richtung der erwarteten Hauptbedrohung zu richten. Dies ist dann erforderlich, wenn infolge einer Teilausstattung mit Warn-Sensoren 1 nicht der volle Bereich in Azimut sensiert werden kann. The other parts of the embodiment according to FIGS. 5 and 6 correspond exactly to the parts of the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4 and are identified by the same reference numbers. 5 and 6, it is possible to direct the entire self-protection platform in the direction of the expected main threat. This is necessary if, due to partial equipment with warning sensors 1, the full range cannot be sensed in azimuth.
