Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Unterseeboot mit einem Druckkörper, bei dem der Zugang zum Druckkörper über einen im Turm vorgesehenen Schacht erfolgt.The invention relates to a submarine with a pressure hull, in which the access to the pressure hull takes place via a shaft provided in the tower.

Insbesondere bei Unterseebooten kleinerer und mittlerer Baugröße dient der zentrale, im Turm befindliche Schacht nicht nur als Ein- und Ausstiegschacht über Wasser, sondern auch zum Notausstieg unter Wasser. Hierzu ist der Schacht zum einen an seinem oberen Ende mittels eines druckdichten Deckels verschließbar, zum anderen ein entsprechender druckdichter Deckel am unteren Ende vorgesehen. Darüber hinaus sind Leitungen und Armaturen vorgesehen, so dass der Schacht als Schleuse genutzt werden kann.Especially in submarines smaller and medium size of the central, located in the tower shaft serves not only as an entry and exit shaft over water, but also for emergency exit under water. For this purpose, the shaft is closed on the one hand at its upper end by means of a pressure-tight lid, on the other hand provided a corresponding pressure-tight lid at the lower end. In addition, pipes and fittings are provided so that the shaft can be used as a lock.

Bei einem bekannten Unterseeboot ist der Schacht zum Ausschleusen von zwei Personen vorgesehen, die in dem Schacht übereinander stehen. Nachdem der Schacht zum Druckkörper hin abgeschlossen ist, wird dieser geflutet und mit dem umgebenden Druck beaufschlagt. Erst wenn der Umgebungsdruck erreicht ist, kann der den Schacht nach außen abschließende Deckel geöffnet werden, wonach zunächst die im Schacht oben befindliche Person und dann die darunter befindliche Person aussteigen kann.In a known submarine, the shaft is provided for discharging two people standing in the shaft one above the other. After the shaft is closed to the pressure body, it is flooded and pressurized with the surrounding pressure. Only when the ambient pressure has been reached, the lid closing off the outside can be opened, after which first the person located in the shaft above and then the person underneath can get out.

Beim Ausstieg in größeren Tiefen kann dies zu Problemen führen, da der Zeitraum, in welchem der Schacht vollständig geflutet und druckausgeglichen wird, vergleichsweise lang ist. Darüber hinaus muss die als zweite aussteigende Person bei anstehendem Umgebungsdruck warten, bis die erste Person den Schacht verlassen hat.When leaving at greater depths, this can lead to problems, since the period in which the shaft is completely flooded and pressure balanced, is comparatively long. In addition, the as Wait for the second person to leave while the ambient pressure is applied until the first person leaves the manhole.

GB 449,361 und DE 535 593 C1 beschreiben Vorrichtungen zum Verlassen und Betreten eines getauchten Unterseebootes, bei denen Niedergänge mit Zugängen nach außerhalb des Unterseeboots als Schleusen ausgebildet sind, wobei ein Schleusenteil offen zu dem Druckkörper des Unterseebootes ist und barometrisch verschlossen wird. So ist in GB 449,361 vor dem die Schleuse bildenden Niedergang ein Tank angeordnet, welcher einseitig offen ist und beim Fluten der Schleuse ebenfalls geflutet wird. Dieser Tank wird in DE 535 593 Cl von einem unterhalb des Niedergangs angeordneten offenen Wasserbecken gebildet. Nachteilig an diesen Vorrichtungen ist es, dass der Luftdruck in dem Druckkörper beim Fluten der Schleuse derart erhöht werden muss, dass er den Druckkörper gegenüber der Schleuse barometrisch verschließt.GB 449,361 and DE 535 593 C1 describe devices for exiting and entering a submerged submarine in which companionways with entrances to the outboard of the submarine are formed as locks, with a gate being open to the pressure hull of the submarine and barometric closed. Thus, in GB 449.361, a tank is arranged in front of the passage forming the lock, which is open on one side and also flooded when the lock floods. This tank is formed in DE 535 593 C1 from an open water basin arranged below the companionway. A disadvantage of these devices is that the air pressure in the pressure body when flooding the lock must be increased so that it closes the pressure body barometric against the lock.

Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Unterseeboot so auszubilden, dass die Ausstiegszeit unter Wasser verkürzt werden kann.Against this background, the present invention has the object, a generic submarine train so that the exit time can be shortened under water.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Unterseeboot mit den in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmalen gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung sowie der Zeichnung.This object is achieved by a submarine with the features specified in claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, the following description and the drawings.

Das erfindungsgemäße Unterseeboot weist in an sich bekannter Weise einen Druckkörper und einen Turm auf, in dem ein zum Druckkörper führender Schacht angeordnet ist. Der Schacht ist zweigeteilt ausgebildet und weist einen ersten Schachtteil mit einem Zugang zum Druckkörper sowie einen zweiten Schachtteil mit einer druckdicht abschließbaren Öffnung zu der das Unterseeboot dort umgebenden Atmosphäre auf. Der erste und der zweite Schachtteil sind übereinander angeordnet.The submarine according to the invention has, in a manner known per se, a pressure hull and a tower in which a shaft leading to the pressure hull is arranged. The shaft is formed in two parts and has a first shaft part with access to the pressure hull and a second shaft part with a pressure-tight lockable opening to the atmosphere surrounding the submarine there. The first and the second shaft part are arranged one above the other.

Zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Schachtteil ist ein druckdicht abschließbarer Durchgang vorgesehen. Nur der zweite Schachtteil ist als Schleuse zum Ausschleusen einer Person ausgebildet.Between the first and the second shaft part a pressure-tight lockable passage is provided. Only the second shaft part is designed as a lock for discharging a person.

Grundgedanke der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, den im Turm befindlichen Schacht, soweit er Schleusenfunktion ausübt, volumenmäßig zu verringern. Da die lichte Weite des Schachtes ohnehin nur bedingt verringert werden kann, sieht die erfindungsgemäße Lösung vor, nur den oberen Schachtabschnitt als Schleuse auszubilden und so zu dimensionieren, dass nur eine einzelne Person ausgeschleust werden kann. Hierdurch wird das Volumen des als Schleuse dienenden Schachtes ganz erheblich reduziert, so dass bei gleich bleibenden Leitungsquerschnitten und Armaturen für das Fluten der Schleuse das Ausschleusen im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik wesentlich schneller erfolgen kann, so dass die auszuschleusende Person wesentlich kürzere Zeit dem Tiefendruck ausgesetzt ist.The basic idea of the present invention is to reduce the volume of the shaft in the tower as far as it performs a lock function. Since the clear width of the shaft can be reduced only conditionally anyway, provides the solution according to the invention to form only the upper shaft section as a lock and dimensioned so that only a single person can be discharged. As a result, the volume of the shaft serving as a lock is considerably reduced, so that with the same line cross-sections and fittings for the flood of the lock the discharge compared to the prior art can be done much faster, so that the person to be ejected much shorter time exposed to the low pressure is.

Der zwischen den Schachtteilen befindliche Durchgang kann im normalen Bootsbetrieb geöffnet verbleiben und so bei Überwasserfahrt einen ungehinderten Zugang von und zum Druckkörper ermöglichen. In einer Notsituation, aber auch in jeder anderen Situation, die einen Unterwasseraus- oder einstieg aus dem oder in das Unterseeboot über den Schacht erforderlich macht, kann eine Person ausgeschleust werden, wenn sie sich in den zweiten Schachtteil begibt. Dann wird der Durchgang zwischen dem ersten Schachtteil und dem zweiten Schachtteil druckdicht abgeschlossen. In dem zweiten Schachtteil kann nun ein Druckausgleich zu dem in der Umgebung des Unterseeboots herrschenden Tiefendruck hergestellt werden, der gewährleistet, dass die an dem zweiten Schachtteil angeordnete Öffnung zur Umgebung des Unterseeboots geöffnet werden kann, und die in diesem Schachtteil befindliche Person dann das Unterseeboot verlassen kann.The passage located between the shaft parts can remain open in normal boat operation and thus allow unobstructed access to and from the pressure hull during transit. In an emergency situation, but also in any other situation that requires a Unterwasseraus- or entry into or out of the submarine on the shaft, a person can be ejected when she goes into the second part of the shaft. Then, the passage between the first shaft part and the second shaft part is pressure-sealed. In the second part of the shaft can now be made equal to the pressure prevailing in the environment of the submarine deep pressure, which ensures that the arranged on the second part of the shaft opening to the environment of the submarine can be opened, and the person in this part of the shaft then leave the submarine can.

Der erste und der zweite Schachtteil sind vorteilhaft so dimensioniert, dass sowohl in dem ersten als auch in dem zweiten Schachtteil in der Regel eine Person aufrecht stehen kann. Bevorzugt weist der an dem Druckkörper angrenzende erste Schachtteil eine Höhe von zumindest zwei Metern auf, während die Stehhöhe in dem zweiten Schachtteil bevorzugt ungefähr zwei Meter beträgt.The first and the second shaft part are advantageously dimensioned so that both in the first and in the second shaft part usually a person can stand upright. Preferably, the first shaft part adjoining the pressure body has a height of at least two meters, while the standing height in the second shaft part is preferably about two meters.

In dem zweiten Schachtteil, der die Öffnung zu der das Unterseeboot umgebende Atmosphäre aufweist, sind bevorzugt Mittel zum Fluten und Entwässern vorgesehen. Hierbei handelt es sich zum Beispiel um entsprechende Leitungen, Ventile und Armaturen, die von außerhalb, vorteilhaft auch von innerhalb des zweiten Schachtteils betätigbar sind.In the second shaft part, which has the opening to the atmosphere surrounding the submarine, means for flooding and dewatering are preferably provided. These are, for example, corresponding lines, valves and fittings, which can be actuated from outside, advantageously also from within the second shaft part.

Mit diesen Mitteln kann in dem zweiten Schachtteil, wie oben beschrieben, ein Druckausgleich zwischen dem in dem zweiten Schachtteil herrschenden Druck, bei dem es sich im Allgemeinen um den Innendruck im Druckkörper handelt wird, sowie dem das Unterseeboot umgebenden Tiefendruck hergestellt werden. Hierzu wird der zweite Schachtteil geflutet. Nachdem der zweite Schachtteil mit Wasser gefüllt und unter Tiefendruck steht, kann die darin befindliche Person die Öffnung zu der Umgebung des Turms öffnen und das Unterseeboot verlassen. Wenn die Person den zweiten Schachtteil verlassen hat, kann dessen Öffnung zur Umgebung wieder verschlossen werden. Schwerkraftbedingt wird der zweite Schachtteil dann entwässert, so dass nach Abschluss dieses Vorgangs und Druckausgleich zum Druckkörper eine weitere Person den Durchgang zu dem zweiten Schachtteil öffnen kann, den zweiten Schachtteil betreten kann und das Unterseeboot in der oben beschriebenen Weise ebenfalls verlassen kann.By means of this means, in the second shaft part, as described above, a pressure equalization can be established between the pressure prevailing in the second shaft part, which is generally the internal pressure in the pressure hull, and the low pressure surrounding the submarine. For this purpose, the second shaft part is flooded. After the second shaft part is filled with water and under pressure, the person inside it can open the opening to the environment of the tower and leave the submarine. If the person has left the second shaft part, its opening to the environment can be closed again. Due to gravity, the second shaft part is then dewatered, so that after completion of this process and pressure equalization to the pressure hull another person can open the passage to the second part of the shaft, enter the second part of the shaft and can also leave the submarine in the manner described above.

Ein Vorteil der zweigeteilten Ausführung des Schachtes, in der nur der zweite obere Schachtteil geflutet und entwässert wird, gegenüber einteiligen Schächten, wie sie bisher zum Unterwasserein- und insbesondere zum Unterwasserausstieg benutzt werden, ist es, dass das Volumen der zu flutenden und zu entwässernden Schleuse deutlich verringert wird, wodurch auch die Flutungs- und Entwässerungszeiten deutlich kürzer ausfallen und auch der Luftverbrauch erheblich verringert wird.An advantage of the two-part design of the shaft, in which only the second upper shaft part is flooded and drained, compared to one-piece shafts, as they have been for Unterwasserein- and in particular used for underwater outfall, it is that the volume of the flood to be flooded and drained lock is significantly reduced, whereby the flooding and drainage times are significantly shorter and also the air consumption is significantly reduced.

Der zweite Schachtteil ist gegenüber dem ersten Schachtteil vorzugsweise mit einem Deckel abschließbar. Dabei ist der Deckel bevorzugt verschwenkbar ausgebildet und so angeordnet, dass er einerseits in eine den Durchgang zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Schachtteil verschließende Stellung bewegt werden kann und andererseits so verschwenkt werden kann, dass er den Durchgang einer Person von dem ersten zu dem zweiten Schachtteil und umgekehrt insbesondere auch während des normalen Betriebs des Unterseeboots nicht behindert.The second shaft part is preferably lockable with respect to the first shaft part with a lid. In this case, the cover is preferably formed pivotable and arranged so that it can be moved on the one hand in the passage between the first and the second shaft part closing position and on the other hand can be pivoted so that it passes the person from the first to the second shaft part and vice versa, especially during normal operation of the submarine not hindered.

Besonders bevorzugt ist der Deckel so angelenkt, dass er beim Öffnen in den ersten Schachtteil hinein geschwenkt wird. Hierdurch wird eine in dem zweiten Schachteil befindliche Person nicht durch das Schließen des Deckels bei ihren Vorbereitungen für einen Unterwasserausstieg behindert. Ferner ist die Höhe des ersten Schachtteils im Allgemeinen so groß ausgebildet, dass eine in dem ersten Schachtteil befindliche Person nicht durch den Deckel behindert wird.Particularly preferably, the lid is articulated so that it is pivoted into the first shaft part during opening. As a result, a person located in the second chess part is not hindered by the closing of the lid in their preparations for an underwater exit. Further, the height of the first shaft portion is generally made so large that a person located in the first shaft portion is not obstructed by the lid.

Sowohl in dem ersten als auch in dem zweiten Schachtteil sind zweckmäßigerweise Mittel zum Öffnen und Schließen des Deckels vorgesehen. Auf diese Weise kann der Zugang zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Schachtteil nicht nur seitens des ersten Schachtteils, sondern auch seitens des zweiten Schachtteils verschlossen oder geöffnet werden.Both in the first and in the second part of the shaft expediently means for opening and closing the lid are provided. In this way, the access between the first and the second shaft part can be closed or opened not only on the part of the first shaft part, but also on the part of the second shaft part.

Der Deckel ist vorteilhaft über ein mechanisches Getriebe verschwenkbar. Um den Deckel von beiden Schachtteilen aus betätigen zu können, ist besonders günstig ein betätigbarer Antriebsstrang des Getriebes sowohl in dem ersten als auch in dem zweiten Schachtteil angeordnet. Durch Anordnung einer Handhabe, beispielsweise einer Kurbel oder eines Handrades, ist eine zuverlässige manuelle Betätigung des Deckels möglich. Über das Getriebe kann der zum Verschwenken erforderliche Kraftaufwand verringert werden und es ist möglich die Betätigung des Getriebes gut zugänglich anzuordnen.The cover is advantageously pivotable via a mechanical transmission. In order to operate the lid from both shaft parts, is particularly favorable an operable drive train of the transmission arranged both in the first and in the second part of the shaft. By arranging a handle, such as a crank or a handwheel, a reliable manual operation of the lid is possible. About the gearbox required for pivoting effort can be reduced and it is possible to arrange the operation of the transmission easily accessible.

Hierzu weist das Getriebe bevorzugt eine Übertragungswelle auf, welche zweckmäßigerweise in dem ersten Schachtteil angeordnet ist. In diesem Schachtteil befindet sich der Deckel über Kopf einer Person, die ihn vom ersten Schachtteil aus öffnen will. Mittels der Übertragungswelle wird es möglich, die Drehbewegung einer Handhabe des Gefriebes, zum Beispiel eines Handrades, die so angeordnet ist, dass sie von der Person leicht zu erreichen und zu benutzen ist, auf andere im Bereich des Deckels angeordnete Getriebekomponenten zu übertragen.For this purpose, the transmission preferably has a transmission shaft, which is expediently arranged in the first shaft part. In this part of the shaft, the lid is above the head of a person who wants to open it from the first part of the shaft. By means of the transmission shaft, it is possible to transmit the rotational movement of a handle of the friction, for example a handwheel, which is arranged so that it is easy to reach and use by the person, to other gear components arranged in the region of the cover.

Der Deckel weist ferner vorteilhaft eine Verriegelung auf, die von dem ersten und dem zweiten Schachtteil aus betätigt werden kann. Mit dieser Verriegelung kann beispielsweise ein versehentliches Öffnen des Deckels verhindert werden, insbesondere dann, wenn der zweite Schachtteil zum Druckausgleich mit der Umgebung mit Wasser geflutet ist und dieses Wasser in Öffnungsrichtung auf den Deckel drückt. Die Verriegelung wird bevorzugt über ein an beiden Seiten des Deckels angeordnetes Handrad, welches jeweils in dem Deckel integriert ist, betätigt.The lid also advantageously has a lock which can be actuated from the first and the second shaft part. With this lock, for example, an accidental opening of the lid can be prevented, in particular when the second shaft part is flooded to equalize the pressure with the environment with water and presses this water in the opening direction on the lid. The lock is preferably actuated via a hand wheel arranged on both sides of the cover, which is in each case integrated in the cover.

In dem zweiten Schachtteil ist besonders günstig eine rutschfeste Standfläche angeordnet. Diese Standfläche wird vorzugsweise von einem Gitterrost gebildet.In the second part of the shaft a non-slip base is particularly favorable. This base is preferably formed by a grid.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung des Schachtes sieht vor, dass der erste Schachtteil und der zweite Schachtteil als separate Bauteile ausgebildet sind, welche vorzugsweise mittels einer Flanschverbindung miteinander verbunden sind. Dabei sind der erste und der zweite Schachtteil bevorzugt miteinander verschraubt. Es ist aber auch möglich die beiden Schachtteile ggf. miteinander zu verschweißen.A further advantageous embodiment of the shaft provides that the first shaft part and the second shaft part are formed as separate components, which are preferably connected to each other by means of a flange connection. In this case, the first and the second shaft part are preferably screwed together. But it is also possible to weld the two shaft parts together if necessary.

So wird bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Unterseeboot ein Unterwasserausstieg über den im Turm befindlichen Schacht ermöglicht, wobei das zu flutende bzw. zu entwässernde Volumen aufgrund der Teilung des Schachts in zwei voneinander trennbare druckdichte Schachtteile gegenüber nicht geteilten Schächten deutlich verringert wird. Dies gilt auch für den Atemluftverbrauch durch das Ausschleusen. Eine zweite Person, welche in dem ersten, nicht gefluteten Schachtteil auf ihren Unterwasserausstieg wartet ist insbesondere in großer Tiefe während der Wartezeit nicht dem sie gefährdenden Wasserdruck ausgesetzt. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist es, dass auch Unterseeboote mit einem einteiligen Schacht in einfacher Weise mit dem erfindungsgemäßen zweiteiligen Schacht ausgerüstet werden können, indem nur der obere, dem Druckkörper abgewandte Teil des Schachtes abgetrennt wird und durch ein Schachtteil mit der erfindungsgemäßen Ausbildung ersetzt wird.Thus, in the submarine according to the invention, an underwater exit via the shaft located in the tower is made possible, whereby the volume to be flooded or drained is significantly reduced due to the division of the shaft into two separable pressure-tight shaft sections with respect to undivided shafts. This also applies to the consumption of breathing air by discharging. A second person who is waiting in the first, non-flooded shaft part on their underwater outlet is not exposed to the endangered water pressure, especially at great depths during the waiting period. Another advantage is that even submarines with a one-piece shaft can be equipped in a simple manner with the two-part shaft according to the invention by only the upper, the pressure body facing away from the shaft part is separated and replaced by a shaft part with the inventive design.

Anhand der Zeichnung wird nun eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung beschrieben, wobei aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit in den Figuren im Wesentlichen nur die Bauteile und Baugruppen des Unterseeboots abgebildet sind, die sich von der bekannten Schachtausbildung, wie sie beispielsweise bei Unterseebooten des Typs 209 üblich sind, unterscheiden.With reference to the drawing, a preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described, wherein for reasons of clarity in the figures essentially only the components and subassemblies of the submarine are shown, which are different from the known shaft formation, as are common for example in submarines of the type 209, differ.

In den Fig. 1 und 2 ist ein Schacht dargestellt, welcher in einem nicht dargestellten Turm eines Unterseeboots angeordnet ist und als Einstiegsschacht zu einem in dem Turm angeordneten Cockpit des Unterseeboots vorgesehen ist. Der Schacht ist zweiteilig ausgebildet mit einem im Wesentlichen zylindrischen Schachtteil 2 und einem sich daran nach oben anschließenden Schachtteil 4, welcher sich zu seinem von dem Schachtteil 2 abgewandten Ende hin konisch verjüngt.In Figs. 1 and 2, a shaft is shown, which is arranged in a tower, not shown, of a submarine and is provided as a manhole to a cockpit arranged in the tower of the submarine. The shaft is formed in two parts with a substantially cylindrical shaft part 2 and an adjoining it at the top shaft part 4, which tapers conically towards its end remote from the shaft part 2 end.

An den einander zugewandten Enden der Schachtteile 2 und 4 ist an dem Schachtteil 2 eine kreisförmige Platte 6 und an dem Schachtteil 4 eine ebenfalls kreisförmige Platte 8 angeschweißt, wobei die Platten 6 und 8 den gleichen Durchmesser aufweisen und so dimensioniert und angeordnet sind, dass sie über die Außenwandung des jeweils mit ihnen verbundenen Schachtteils 2 bzw. 4 auskragen. In diesem Bereich sind die beiden Platten 6 und 8 miteinander verschraubt, so dass die beiden Schachtteile 2 und 4 in Form einer Flanschverbindung druckdicht miteinander verbunden sind.At the mutually facing ends of the shaft parts 2 and 4, a circular plate 6 is welded to the shaft part 2 and to the shaft part 4, a likewise circular plate 8, wherein the plates 6 and 8 have the same diameter and are dimensioned and arranged so that they protrude beyond the outer wall of each connected thereto shaft part 2 and 4 respectively. In this area, the two plates 6 and 8 are screwed together so that the two shaft parts 2 and 4 are pressure-tightly connected to each other in the form of a flange connection.

Die Platten 6 und 8 weisen kreisförmige Durchbrechungen auf, die zueinander fluchtend und exzentrisch zum Mittelpunkt der Platten 6 und 8 angeordnet sind. Sie bilden einen Durchgang 10 zwischen den Schachtteilen 2 und 4, so dass der Schacht einen Zugang von dem direkt an den Druckkörper anschließenden unteren Ende des Schachtteils 2 zu dem oberen Ende des Schachtteils 4 ermöglicht. Der Druckkörper ist in den Figuren nicht abgebildet. Das obere Ende des Schachtteils 4 ist in Form eines Sülls 12 für eine in den Figuren ebenfalls nicht dargestellte Luke ausgebildet, welche einen Zugang zu der Umgebung des Turms ermöglicht und in an sich bekannter Weise ausgebildet ist und daher hier nicht im Einzelnen beschrieben wird.The plates 6 and 8 have circular openings, which are arranged in alignment with each other and eccentric to the center of the plates 6 and 8. They form a passage 10 between the shaft parts 2 and 4, so that the shaft has an access from the directly to the pressure body subsequent lower end of the shaft part 2 to the upper end of the shaft part 4 allows. The pressure hull is not shown in the figures. The upper end of the shaft portion 4 is formed in the form of a sill 12 for a hatch also not shown in the figures, which allows access to the environment of the tower and is formed in a conventional manner and therefore will not be described in detail here.

Der Durchgang 10 wird von einem Deckel 14 verschlossen, der an der dem Schachtteil 2 zugewandten Seite der Platte 6 so angebunden ist, dass er von einer den Durchgang 10 verschließenden Stellung in eine den Durchgang 10 freigebende Stellung (Deckel 14') verschwenkt werden kann. In der freigebenden Stellung ist der Deckel 14' um etwa 90° relativ zu der den Durchgang 10 verschließenden Stellung in den Schachtteil 2 verschwenkt.The passage 10 is closed by a cover 14 which is connected to the shaft part 2 facing side of the plate 6 so that it can be pivoted from a passage 10 closing position into a passage 10 releasing position (lid 14 '). In the releasing position, the lid 14 'is pivoted by about 90 ° relative to the passage 10 closing position in the shaft part 2.

Das Verschwenken des Deckels 14 erfolgt über eine Kniehebelmechanik. Hierzu ist das freie Ende eines Hebelarms des Kniehebels an dem Deckel 14 angelenkt und das freie Ende des anderen Hebelarms des Kniehebels an der Innenumfangsfläche des Schachtteils 2 schwenkbar befestigt. Zwischen den Hebeln ist an dem Kniegelenk eine Spindelmutter angeordnet, durch welche eine Gewindespindel geführt ist. Eine Drehbewegung der Gewindespindel kann auf diese Weise in eine Axialbewegung der Spindelmutter umgewandelt werden, die zu einem Verschwenken des Kniehebels und damit zu einem Verschwenken des Deckels 14 führt. Die Dimensionierung der Kniehebelmechanik ist dabei sowohl den Einbaubedingungen in dem Schachtteil 2 als auch dem Gewicht und der Größe des Deckels 14 angepasst.The pivoting of the lid 14 via a toggle mechanism. For this purpose, the free end of a lever arm of the toggle lever is hinged to the lid 14 and the free end of the other lever arm of the toggle lever pivotally attached to the inner peripheral surface of the shaft part 2. Between the levers, a spindle nut is arranged on the knee joint, through which a threaded spindle is guided. A rotational movement of the threaded spindle can be converted in this way into an axial movement of the spindle nut, which leads to a pivoting of the toggle lever and thus to a pivoting of the lid 14. The dimensioning of the toggle mechanism is adapted to both the installation conditions in the shaft part 2 and the weight and size of the lid 14.

Die Gewindespindel ist mit einem Getriebe 16 bewegungsgekoppelt, welches im Wesentlichen neben dem Deckel 14 an der dem Schachteil 2 zugewandten Seite der Platte 6 befestigt ist. So befindet sich ein Großteil des Getriebes 16 in dem Schachteil 2 überkopf einer dort stehenden Person, die von dem Getriebe 16 auf diese Weise nicht in ihrer Bewegungsfreiheit beeinträchtigt wird. An der Innenwandung des Schachtteils 2 ist in gut zugänglicher Höhe ein weiteres Getriebe 18 angeordnet. Dieses Getriebe 18 ist über eine Welle 22 mit dem Getriebe 16 bewegungsgekoppelt, so dass an dem Getriebe 16 eingeleitete Bewegungen auf das Getriebe 18 und von dort über den Spindeltrieb und die Kniehebelmechanik auf den Deckel 14 übertragen werden können. Hierzu verfügt das Getriebe 18 über ein Handrad 20, welches einer Person ein relativ bequemes Öffnen und Verschließen des Deckels 14 ermöglicht, ohne dabei Überkopf arbeiten zu müssen.The threaded spindle is motion-coupled with a gear 16, which is fastened substantially next to the cover 14 on the chess part 2 facing side of the plate 6. So there is a lot the transmission 16 in the chess part 2 overhead of a person standing there, which is not affected by the transmission 16 in this way in their freedom of movement. On the inner wall of the shaft part 2, another gear 18 is arranged at a readily accessible height. This transmission 18 is coupled in a motion-coupled manner to the transmission 16 via a shaft 22, so that movements initiated at the transmission 16 can be transmitted to the transmission 18 and from there via the spindle drive and the toggle mechanism to the cover 14. For this purpose, the gear 18 has a handwheel 20, which allows a person a relatively convenient opening and closing of the lid 14, without having to work overhead.

Ein Antriebsstrang 24 des Getriebes 15 ist durch die Platten 6 und 8 hindurchgeführt. Dieser Antriebsstrang 24 weist einen Vierkant auf, auf den ein passendes Handrad (in den Figuren nicht dargestellt) aufgesteckt werden kann, so dass der Deckel 14 auch von dem zweiten Schachtteil 4 aus geöffnet oder verschlossen werden kann.A drive train 24 of the transmission 15 is passed through the plates 6 and 8. This drive train 24 has a square on which a suitable handwheel (not shown in the figures) can be plugged, so that the lid 14 can also be opened or closed by the second shaft part 4.

Um den Deckel 14 in der den Durchgang 10 verschließenden Stellung verriegeln zu können, ist eine Verriegelungsmechanik vorgesehen, welche durch Handräder 26 betätigbar ist. Diese Handräder sind in den Deckel 14 integriert, wobei in der Zeichnung nur in der Fig. 3 ein Handrad 26 an der dem Schachtteil 2 zugewandten Seite des Deckels 14 dargestellt ist. Die Verriegelungsmechanik ist so dimensioniert, dass sie auf den Deckel 14 eine solche Verriegelungskraft ausübt, die auch dem bei gefluteten Schachtteil 4 auf den Deckel 14 wirkenden Wasserdruck standhält.In order to lock the lid 14 in the passage 10 closing position, a locking mechanism is provided, which is actuated by hand wheels 26. These handwheels are integrated in the cover 14, wherein in the drawing only in the Fig. 3, a handwheel 26 is shown on the shaft part 2 facing side of the lid 14. The locking mechanism is dimensioned so that it exerts on the cover 14 such a locking force, which withstands the water pressure acting on the cover 14 when the shaft part 4 flooded.

In dem Schacht ist eine in den Figuren nicht eingezeichnete Steighilfe, vorzugsweise eine Leiter angeordnet, über die eine Person zum Unterwasserausstieg aus dem Unterseeboot in den oberen, zweiten Schachtteil 4 klettern kann. Um dort sicher stehen zu können, ist dort eine Standfläche 28 in Form eines rutschfesten Gitterrostes so angeordnet, dass in dem Schachtteil 4 eine von der Standfläche 28 aus gemessene Standhöhe von etwa zwei Metern besteht.In the shaft a climbing aid, not shown in the figures, preferably a ladder is arranged, via which a person can climb to the underwater exit from the submarine into the upper, second shaft part 4. To stand there safely, there is a stand there 28 arranged in the form of a non-slip grid so that in the shaft part 4 is a measured from the base 28 from stand height of about two meters.

Befindet sich die Person in dem Schachtteil 4, kann der Durchgang 10 zwischen dem Schachteil 2 und dem Schachtteil 4 durch den Deckel 14 verschlossen werden, so dass dann der Schachtteil 4 druckdicht von dem Schachtteil 2 getrennt ist. Daraufhin wird der Schachtteil 4 geflutet, um die an der Oberseite des Schachtteils 4 angeordnete Luke öffnen zu können. Die hierfür erforderlichen Mittel sind in der Zeichnung der Übersichtlichkeit wegen nicht dargestellt, sie entsprechen im Übrigen dem Stand der Technik. Während des Ausstiegs dieser Person, kann eine weitere Person in dem ersten Schachtteil 2 auf ihren Ausstieg unter den in dem Druckkörper herrschenden Druckbedingungen warten und den Deckel 14 öffnen, wenn die obere Luke des Schachtteils 4 verschlossen und der Schachtteil 4 wieder entwässert ist. Danach kann auch sie in der oben beschriebenen Weise das Unterseeboot verlassen.If the person is in the shaft part 4, the passage 10 between the chess part 2 and the shaft part 4 can be closed by the cover 14, so that then the shaft part 4 is pressure-tightly separated from the shaft part 2. Then, the shaft part 4 is flooded to open the arranged on the top of the shaft part 4 hatch. The funds required for this purpose are not shown in the drawing for the sake of clarity, they otherwise correspond to the prior art. During the exit of this person, another person in the first shaft part 2 can wait for their exit under the pressure conditions prevailing in the pressure body and open the lid 14 when the upper hatch of the shaft part 4 is closed and the shaft part 4 is dehydrated again. Then she can leave the submarine in the manner described above.

In den Figuren ist der Übergang von dem Schacht zu dem Druckkörper des Unterseebootes nicht dargestellt. Es sei daher an dieser Stelle angemerkt, dass die Unterseite des Schachtteils 2, welche direkt an den Druckkörper anschließt, sowohl als eine mit einem Deckel abschließbare Luke als auch als offener Zugang ausgebildet sein kann. Beispielsweise kann ein ursprünglich zum Ausschleusen von zwei Personen vorgesehener Schacht, der an seiner Unterseite mit einer Deckel gegenüber dem Druckkörper des Unterseebootes druckdicht abschließbar ausgebildet ist, so umgerüstet werden, dass ein oberer Teil des Schachtes abgetrennt wird und ein zweiter Schachtteil 4 aufgeflanscht wird, wobei zwischen dem ersten Schachtteil 2 und dem zweiten Schachtteil 4 in der erfindungsgemäßen Weise ein mittels eines Deckels 14 druckdicht abschließbarer Durchgang 10 vorgesehen ist. Der Deckel an der Unterseite des Schachtteils 2 ist dann eigentlich nicht mehr erforderlich, da der Deckel 14 die Aufgabe einer Abschottung des Druckkörpers gegenüber dem Wasserdruck übernimmt, allerdings bietet der Deckel an der Unterseite des Schachtteils 2 eine doppelte Sicherheit gegen einen möglichen Wassereinbruch.In the figures, the transition from the shaft to the pressure hull of the submarine is not shown. It should therefore be noted at this point that the underside of the shaft part 2, which connects directly to the pressure body, both as a lockable with a lid hatch and as an open access can be formed. For example, an initially provided for the discharge of two people shaft, which is designed pressure-tight lockable on its underside with a lid opposite the pressure hull of the submarine, so that an upper part of the shaft is separated and a second shaft part 4 is flanged, said between the first shaft part 2 and the second shaft part 4 in the manner according to the invention a pressure-tight sealable passage 10 by means of a cover 14 is provided. The lid on the underside of the shaft part 2 is then actually no longer necessary because the lid 14 performs the task of sealing off the pressure hull against the water pressure, however, the lid on the underside of the shaft part 2 provides double security against possible ingress of water.
