Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schiff mit Fundamenten mit mindestens einem Ausstattungselement, bei dem mindestens ein Fundament eine Schwenkeinrichtung aufweist und in mindestens zwei unterschiedlichen Positionierungen fixierbar ist, sowie bei dem die Schwenkeinrichtung zur Durchführung einer Verschwenkung des Fundamentes in einer vertikalen Ebene ausgebildet ist.The invention relates to a ship with foundations with at least one equipment element, in which at least one foundation has a pivoting device and is fixable in at least two different positions, and in which the pivoting device is designed to carry out a pivoting of the foundation in a vertical plane.

Derartige Fundamente werden in der Regel im Decksbereich des Schiffes angeordnet und dienen beispielsweise zur Halterung und Lagerung von Effektoren oder Sensoren. Die bislang verwendeten Fundamente sind üblicher Weise in das Schiffsdeck eingelassen oder mit dem Schiffsdeck verschraubt. Die verwendeten Effektoren und Sensoren sind auf den Fundamenten typischerweise entweder statisch oder in einer horizontalen Richtung verschwenkbar angeordnet. Die Fundamente selbst sind starr mit dem Schiffsdeck verbunden.Such foundations are usually arranged in the deck area of the ship and serve, for example, for mounting and storage of effectors or sensors. The foundations used so far are usually embedded in the ship's deck or bolted to the ship's deck. The effectors and sensors used are typically static or inert on the foundations a horizontal direction arranged pivotally. The foundations themselves are rigidly connected to the ship's deck.

Das Dokument EP-A-0072 669 wird als nächstliegendes Stand der Technik angeschen und offenbart sämtliche Merkmale des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1. Insbesondere wird im der EP-A-0 072 669 eine marine Bordkanone beschrieben, die auf einer geneigten Plattform drehbar angeordnet ist. Zur Zielerfassung dient ein als Radareinrichtung ausgebildeter Sensor der im Bereich des Laufes der Kanone angeordnet ist. Der Lauf der Kanone ist in einer Ebene senkrecht zur geneigten Plattform verschwenkbar gelagert.The document EP-A-0072 669 is addressed as the closest prior art and discloses all features of independent claim 1. In particular, in the EP-A-0 072 669 a marine cannon described, which is rotatably mounted on a sloping platform. For target detection serves as a radar device designed sensor which is arranged in the region of the barrel of the cannon. The barrel of the cannon is pivotally mounted in a plane perpendicular to the inclined platform.

Aus der FR-A-2 464 185 ist bereits ein Schiff mit Fundamenten für Ausstattungselemente bekannt. Die Ausstattungselemente sind als Raketenwerfer ausgebildet und die Fundamente sind sowohl in einer horizontalen Richtung als auch in einer nach oben geschwenkten Positionierung anordbar.From the FR-A-2 464 185 already a ship with foundations for equipment elements is known. The equipment elements are designed as rocket launcher and the foundations can be arranged both in a horizontal direction as well as in an upwardly pivoted positioning.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Schiff der einleitend genannten Art derart zu konstruieren, daß der wirk- und Erfassungsbereich der Sensoren und Effektoren an die jeweilige Aufgabe angepaßt werden kann.Object of the present invention is to construct a ship of the aforementioned type such that the effective and detection range of the sensors and effectors can be adapted to the respective task.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das Ausstattungselement als ein Effektor, wie ein Geschütz mit einem Lauf und einem Sockel, und/oder als ein Sensor ausgebildet ist und daß eine der Positionierungen des Fundamentes im wesentlichen horizontal und die zweite der Positionierungen derart geneigt zur Horizontalen orientiert ist, dass ein Anwendungsbereich unmittelbar neben dem Schiff gegeben ist.This object is achieved in that the equipment element as an effector, such as a gun with a barrel and a base, and / or is designed as a sensor and that one of the positioning of the foundation substantially horizontally and the second of the positions so inclined to Oriented horizontally is that an application area is given immediately adjacent to the ship.

Durch die verschwenkbare Anordnung des Fundamentes ist es möglich, einen auf dem Fundament angeordneten Effektor oder Sensor derart schräg anzuordnen, daß ein Anwendungsbereich unmittelbar neben dem Schiff erschlossen wird. Bei einer starren Anordnung der Fundamente ergibt sich für die vorgesehenen Anwendungen jeweils ein Mindestabstand zum Schiff, eine unmittelbare Umgebung des Schiffes kann nicht erfaßt werden.Due to the pivotable arrangement of the foundation, it is possible to arrange an effector or sensor arranged on the foundation in such an oblique manner that an application area is developed directly next to the ship. At a rigid arrangement of the foundations results for the intended applications in each case a minimum distance to the ship, an immediate environment of the ship can not be detected.

Eine derartige örtliche Vergrößerung des Anwendungsbereiches auf die unmittelbare Umgebung des Schiffes erweist sich insbesondere bei militärischen Anwendungen als vorteilhaft. Es hat sich herausgestellt, daß insbesondere bei terroristischen Angriffen auf militärische Schiffe bislang eingesetzte Verteidigungsstrategien der Schiffe zu Sicherheitslücken führen, da unbemerkt in die Nähe des Schiffes gelangte Angreifer geringer Baugröße nur mit erheblichen Einschränkungen erfaßbar und bekämpfbar sind.Such a local enlargement of the field of application to the immediate vicinity of the ship proves to be particularly advantageous in military applications. It has been found that, especially in terrorist attacks on military ships previously used defense strategies of the ships lead to security holes, as unnoticed in the vicinity of the ship arrived attackers of small size can be detected and combated only with considerable restrictions.

Bei einer waffentechnischen Ausbildung der Effektoren ist es insbesondere möglich, unmittelbar neben der Bordwand befindliche Ziele effektiv zu bekämpfen. Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Sensoren ermöglicht eine automatische Zielerkennung in unmittelbarer Umgebung des Schiffes.In the case of weapon technology training of the effectors, it is possible, in particular, to effectively combat targets located directly next to the side wall. The inventive arrangement of the sensors enables automatic target recognition in the immediate vicinity of the ship.

Eine funktionelle und zugleich mechanisch robuste Ausführung wird dadurch unterstützt, daß eine der Positionierungen des Fundamentes im wesentlichen horizontal und die zweite der Positionierungen geneigt zur Horizontalen orientiert ist.A functional and at the same time mechanically robust design is supported in that one of the positioning of the foundation is oriented substantially horizontally and the second of the positioning is oriented inclined to the horizontal.

Eine vorteilhafte Anordnung erfolgt dadurch, daß das Fundament im Bereich eines Decks des Schiffes angeordnet ist.An advantageous arrangement is effected in that the foundation is arranged in the region of a deck of the ship.

Insbesondere ist daran gedacht, daß das Fundament im Bereich des Schiffsdecks mit einem höchstens geringen Abstand zu einer Bordwand angeordnet ist.In particular, it is envisaged that the foundation is arranged in the region of the ship's deck with at most a small distance to a side wall.

Zur Umgebungserfassung erweist es sich als vorteilhaft, daß das Schiff im Bereich eines die Bordwand seitlich überkragenden Auslegers angeordnet ist.For environmental detection, it proves to be advantageous that the ship is arranged in the region of a side wall of the ship's side overhanging boom.

Zur Erhöhung der mechanischen Belastbarkeit wird vorgeschlagen, daß der Ausleger mit einer Abstützung versehen ist.To increase the mechanical strength is proposed that the boom is provided with a support.

Eine Ausbildung zur Erhöhung einer Verteidigungsfähigkeit wird dadurch bereitgestellt, daß das Ausstattungselement als ein Effektor ausgebildet ist.Training to enhance defensive capability is provided by designing the trim element as an effector.

Gemäß einer besonderen Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß der Effektor als ein Geschütz mit eigener Sensorik ausgebildet ist.According to a particular embodiment, it is provided that the effector is designed as a gun with its own sensors.

Zur Unterstützung einer automatischen Erfassung von Umgebungsparametern ist vorgesehen, daß das Ausstattungselement als ein Sensor ausgebildet ist.To support an automatic detection of environmental parameters is provided that the equipment element is designed as a sensor.

Ein besonders großes Erfassungsfeld kann dadurch erreicht werden, daß mindestens ein Sensor backbordseitig und mindestens ein weiterer Sensor steuerbordseitig angeordnet ist.A particularly large detection field can be achieved by arranging at least one sensor on the port side and at least one further sensor on the starboard side.

Eine genaue Umgebungserfassung wird dadurch unterstützt, daß der Sensor elektro-optisch ausgebildet ist.A precise environmental detection is supported by the fact that the sensor is formed electro-optically.

Eine mechanisch stabile Verankerung im Bereich der Schiffsstruktur kann dadurch erreicht werden, daß das Fundament über die Schwenkeinrichtung mit einer im Bereich des Decks verankerten Basisplatte verbunden ist.A mechanically stable anchoring in the area of the ship structure can be achieved by connecting the foundation via the pivoting device to a base plate anchored in the area of the deck.

Eine auch bei einem Auftreten von Rückstoßkräften ausreichend stabile Konstruktion wird dadurch erreicht, daß die Schwenkeinrichtung teleskopierbar ausgebildet ist.A sufficiently stable construction even when an occurrence of recoil forces is achieved in that the pivoting device is telescopic.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine teilweise Darstellung einer Seitenansicht eines Fundamentes (1), das im Bereich eines Decks (2) eines Schiffes (3) angeordnet ist. Das Fundament (1) ist hierbei in unmittelbarer Nähe einer Bordwand (4) angeordnet. Auf dem Fundament (1) ist ein Effektor (5) angeordnet, der als ein Geschütz ausgebildet ist. Der Effektor (5) besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Lauf (6) sowie einem Sockel (7). Relativ zum Sockel (7) ist der Lauf (6) in einer vertikalen Richtung verschwenkbar. Fig. 1 shows a partial representation of a side view of a foundation (1), which is arranged in the region of a deck (2) of a ship (3). The foundation (1) is arranged in the immediate vicinity of a side wall (4). On the foundation (1), an effector (5) is arranged, which is designed as a gun. The effector (5) consists essentially of a barrel (6) and a base (7). Relative to the base (7) of the barrel (6) is pivotable in a vertical direction.

Das Fundament (1) ist über ein Schwenkgelenk (8) mit einer Basisplatte (9) verbunden, die beim dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel in das Schiffsdeck (2) eingelassen und fest mit diesen verbunden ist. Das Schwenkgelenk (8) ist im Bereich einer der Bordwand (4) zugewandten Ausdehnung des Fundamentes (1) angeordnet. Über eine Schwenkeinrichtung (10) kann das Fundament (1) derart positioniert werden, daß eine Schwenkbewegung relativ zum Schwenkgelenk (8) durchgeführt wird.The foundation (1) is connected via a pivot joint (8) with a base plate (9), which is embedded in the illustrated embodiment in the ship deck (2) and firmly connected thereto. The pivot joint (8) is arranged in the region of one of the side wall (4) facing extension of the foundation (1). About a pivoting device (10), the foundation (1) can be positioned so that a pivoting movement relative to the pivot joint (8) is performed.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Anordnung gemäß Fig. 1 in einem verschwenkten Zustand. Das Fundament (1) ist hierbei relativ zum Deck (2) derart verschwenkt, daß ein Übergangsbereich zwischen dem Lauf (6) und dem Sockel (7) etwa in lotrechter Richtung oberhalb der Bordwand (4) angeordnet ist. Der Lauf (6) kann hierdurch relativ zum Sockel (7) soweit heruntergeschwenkt werden, daß Ziele in unmittelbarer Nähe der Bordwand (4) bekämpft werden können. Fig. 2 shows the arrangement according to Fig. 1 in a pivoted state. The foundation (1) is in this case pivoted relative to the deck (2) such that a transition region between the barrel (6) and the base (7) is arranged approximately in the vertical direction above the side wall (4). The barrel (6) can thereby be pivoted down so far relative to the base (7) that targets in the immediate vicinity of the side wall (4) can be fought.

Die Schwenkeinrichtung (10) kann beispielsweise als eine teleskopierbare Einrichtung ausgebildet sein, die über Drehgelenke (11, 12) einerseits mit dem Fundament (1) und andererseits mit der Basisplatte (9) bzw. dem Deck (2) verbunden ist. Bei einer durch ein Ausfahren bedingten Längenänderung wird der Schwenkvorgang des Fundamentes (1) durchgeführt.The pivoting device (10) may be formed, for example, as a telescopic device, which is connected via pivot joints (11, 12) on the one hand to the foundation (1) and on the other hand to the base plate (9) or the deck (2). For a change in length caused by an extension the pivoting operation of the foundation (1) is performed.

In der Regel ist es ausreichend, für die verschwenkung des Fundamentes (1) die in Fig. 1 dargestellte horizontale Grundpositionierung und eine Schwenkpositionierung entsprechen der Darstellung in Fig. 2 vorzusehen. Zwischenstellungen sind in der Regel entbehrlich. Die technische Realisierung lediglich der horizontalen Grundstellung sowie einer verschwenkten Endpositionierung ermöglicht eine einfache und robuste mechanische Konstruktion, die insbesondere auch in der in Fig. 2 dargestellten verschwenkten Positionierung dafür geeignet ist, Rückstoßkräfte des Effektors (5) aufzunehmen.In general, it is sufficient for the pivoting of the foundation (1) in Fig. 1 shown horizontal basic positioning and a pivoting positioning correspond to the representation in Fig. 2 provided. Intermediate positions are usually expendable. The technical realization of only the horizontal basic position and a pivoted final positioning allows a simple and robust mechanical construction, especially in the in Fig. 2 shown pivoted positioning is adapted to absorb recoil forces of the effector (5).

Die technische Vorsehung lediglich einer definierten Verschwenkpositionierung des Fundamentes (1) ermöglicht es darüber hinaus, die verschwenkte Positionierung in einem Waffenleitsystem zu berücksichtigen und automatisch in ballistische Berechnungen einzubeziehen, um eine automatische Betätigung des Effektors (5) zu unterstützen.The technical provision of only a defined pivoting position of the foundation (1) also makes it possible to take into account the tilted positioning in a gun control system and automatically included in ballistic calculations to support an automatic actuation of the effector (5).

Fig. 3 zeigt einen im Bereich eines verschwenkbaren Fundamentes (1) angeordneten Sensor (13). Das Fundament (1) ist bei dieser Ausführungsform nicht im Bereich des Schiffsdecks (2), sondern im Bereich eines seitlich über die Bordwand (4) überstehenden Auslegers (14) angeordnet. Eine derartige Positionierung des Sensors (13) unterstützt einen möglichst großen Erfassungsbereich. Fig. 3 shows a arranged in the region of a pivotable foundation (1) sensor (13). The foundation (1) is not arranged in the region of the ship's deck (2) in this embodiment, but in the region of a jib (14) projecting laterally beyond the side wall (4). Such a positioning of the sensor (13) supports the largest possible detection range.

Bei der in Fig. 4 dargestellten verschwenkten Positionierung ist das Fundament (1) wiederum mittels einer Schwenkeinrichtung (10) gegenüber dem Ausleger (14) relativ zu einem Schwenkgelenk (8) verschwenkt.At the in Fig. 4 shown pivoted positioning the foundation (1) in turn by means of a pivoting device (10) relative to the boom (14) is pivoted relative to a pivot joint (8).

Ein Betrieb des verschwenkbaren Fundamentes (1) kann standardmäßig derart erfolgen, daß auf See die in den Figuren 1 und 3 dargestellte horizontale Positionierung vorgesehen wird. Im Bereich von Häfen oder im Bereich von küstennahen Ankerungen werden hingegen die in Fig. 2 und Fig. 4 dargestellten verschwenkten Positionierungen eingenommen. Bei einer Verwendung von Marineleichtgeschützen mit eigener Sensorik ist es möglich, diese bei der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Positionierung autark und ohne Nutzung weiterer bordeigener Sensoren zu verwenden.An operation of the pivotable foundation (1) can be done by default in such a way that at sea in the FIGS. 1 and 3 shown horizontal positioning is provided. In the area of ports or in the area of offshore anchorages, however, the in Fig. 2 and Fig. 4 taken pivoted positions taken. When using naval light guns with their own sensors, it is possible to use them in the Fig. 2 used positioning independently and without the use of other on-board sensors.

Zur Integration in ein bordeigenes Feuerleitsystem ist insbesondere an die Verwendung von elektro-optischen Sensoren (13) gedacht. Die Sensoren (13) werden vorzugsweise mittels der Ausleger (14) backbord und steuerbord angeordnet. Vorteilhafterweise sind die Sensoren (13) in einem der Bordwand (4) zugewandten Endbereich der Ausleger (14) positioniert.For integration into an on-board fire control system is intended in particular to the use of electro-optical sensors (13). The sensors (13) are preferably arranged by means of the boom (14) port and starboard. Advantageously, the sensors (13) in one of the side wall (4) facing the end region of the boom (14) are positioned.

Als besonders vorteilhaft erweist es sich, für das Fundament (1) in der verschwenkten Stellung einen Schwenkwinkel von etwa 45 Grad vorzusehen. Bei einem derartigen Schwenkwinkel werden sowohl ein großer Erfassungsbereich als auch eine ausreichend große mechanische Stabilität bereitgestellt.It proves to be particularly advantageous to provide a pivot angle of about 45 degrees for the foundation (1) in the pivoted position. With such a swivel angle, both a large detection range and a sufficiently large mechanical stability are provided.

In Abhängigkeit vom Gewicht der Sensoren (13) ist es möglich, für den Ausleger (14) eine zusätzliche Abstützung zu verwenden, um auftretende Schwingungen an den Auslegern (14) zu minimieren.Depending on the weight of the sensors (13), it is possible to use an additional support for the boom (14) in order to minimize vibrations occurring on the arms (14).
