Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schutzeinrichtung an einer Ein-/Ausstiegsluke eines Kampffahrzeugs, insbesondere eines Kampfpanzers, mit den Merkmalen aus dem Oberbegriff den Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a protective device on an entry / exit hatch of a combat vehicle, in particular a main battle tank, with the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Eine Ein-/Ausstiegsluke mit diesen Merkmalen ist beispielsweise in EP 0 428 953 A1 beschrieben. In diesem Dokument ist anhand der Figuren 6 bis 8 ein Lukendeckel beschrieben, der zur Öffnung zunächst angehoben und dann um eine vertikal stehende Schwenkachse nach außen weggeschwenkt wird, wobei er über um horizontale Schwenkachsen nach außen schwenkbare Dachschutzdeckel hinweg angehoben werden muss.An entry / exit hatch with these features is for example in EP 0 428 953 A1 described. This document is based on the FIGS. 6 to 8 describes a hatch cover, which is first raised to the opening and then pivoted away about a vertical pivot axis outwards, where it must be lifted over about horizontal pivot axes outwardly pivotable roof protection cover away.

Weitere Ein-/Ausstiegsluken sind beispielsweise in EP 121 844 A1 , DE 33 05 882 A1 , DE 42 40 140 A1 und DE 195 04 922 A1 beschrieben.Further entry / exit hatches are, for example, in EP 121 844 A1 . DE 33 05 882 A1 . DE 42 40 140 A1 and DE 195 04 922 A1 described.

Bei derartigen Kampffahrzeugen wird oft "über Luke" gefahren, was bedeutet, dass eine Person, beispielsweise der Kommandant, im Kampffahrzeug so sitzt, dass ein Teil seines Körpers, insbesondere der Kopf, aus der Lukenöffnung herausragt. Hier besteht nun die Gefahr, dass bei einem Crash, also beispielsweise einer Abbremsung aus 30 km/h auf 0 km/h die betreffende Person zunächst nach vorn auf den Lukenrand nickt und anschließend nach hinten mit dem Kopf-Nackenbereich hart am Lukenrand aufschlägt. Beide Bewegungen führen zu starken Verletzungen.In such combat vehicles is often driven "over hatch", which means that a person, for example, the commander, sitting in the combat vehicle so that a part of his body, in particular the head, protrudes from the hatch opening. Here is the danger that in a crash, so for example, a deceleration from 30 km / h to 0 km / h, the person in question first nods forward on the hatch and then hits the back hard with the head-neck area hard on the hatch edge. Both movements lead to severe injuries.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schutzeinrichtung an einer Ein-/Ausstiegsluke eines Kampffahrzeugs, insbesondere eines Kampfpanzers, mit den eingangs und im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen zu schaffen, mit der einerseits das Auftreffen der Körperteile einer über Luke fahrenden Person bei einem Crash stark gemildert wird, andererseits aber weder die Beobachtung aus der Luke heraus noch das Ein- und Aussteigen stärker behindert wird.The invention has for its object to provide a protective device on an entry / exit hatch of a combat vehicle, in particular a main battle tank, with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1, with the one hand, the impact of the body parts of a person driving over a hatch at a Crash is greatly mitigated, on the other hand, but the observation from the hatch out and the entry and exit is more hampered.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe geschieht erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil von Patentanspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Ein Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, oberhalb der Lukenöffnung ein Aufsatzstück anzuordnen mit einer Deckplatte, in der eine Durchstiegsöffnung angeordnet ist. Diese Durchstiegsöffnung ist durch zwei in entgegengesetzter Richtung nach außen aufschwenkbare Deckelteile verschließbar, die im geschlossenen Zustand mit ihren einander zugewandten Rändern einander angrenzen. Ein erster Deckelteil wird dabei in Ausblickrichtung gesehen nach hinten aufgeschwenkt. Dieser erste Deckelteil ist an seiner Unterseite mit abpolsterndem Material versehen und übernimmt im hochgeschwenkten Zustand die Funktion einer Nackenstütze. Der zweite in Ausblickrichtung gesehen nach vorne hochschwenkbare Deckelteil ist an seinem im geschlossenen Zustand dem ersten Deckelteil bzw. der in der Luke sitzenden Person zugewandten Rand mit abpolsterndem Material versehen und dient somit im geschlossenen Zustand als Polsterung beim Auftreffen der Kinnpartie auf den Rand. Beim Fahren "über Luke" ist somit der erste hintere Deckelteil hochgeklappt, während der zweite vordere Deckelteil geschlossen ist. Werden beide Deckelteile hochgeklappt, ist das Ein-Aussteigen durch die Durchstiegsöffnung und die Lukenöffnung ohne weiteres möglich. Beim Fahren "unter Luke" sind die beiden Deckelteile geschlossen.A basic idea of the invention is to arrange a top section above the hatch opening with a cover plate in which a passage opening is arranged. This access opening can be closed by two cover parts, which can be swiveled outwards in the opposite direction, which in the closed state adjoin one another with their mutually facing edges. A first cover part is pivoted as seen in the direction of view to the rear. This first cover part is provided on its underside with abpolsterndem material and takes over the function of a neck support in the swung-up state. The second viewed in the direction of view to the front swiveling cover part is provided at its in the closed state the first cover part or in the hatch facing person facing edge with abpolsterndem material and thus serves in the closed state as padding when hitting the chin part on the edge. When driving "over hatch" thus the first rear cover part is folded up while the second front cover part is closed. If both lid parts are folded up, it is readily possible to get in and out through the access opening and the hatch opening. When driving "under hatch" the two lid parts are closed.

Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn die beiden Deckelteile unterschiedlich ausgebildet sind und somit an die Körper- und Kopfform der "über Luke" fahrenden Person angepasst sind. So kann der erste, im allgemeinen kleinere Deckelteil an dem dem zweiten Deckelteil zugewandten Rand eine konvex gekrümmte Kontur aufweisen, die im geschlossenen Zustand der Deckelteile in eine entsprechend konkav gekrümmte Kontur im gegenüberliegenden Rand des zweiten, größeren Deckelteils eingreift.It has proved to be advantageous if the two lid parts are designed differently and thus adapted to the body and head shape of the "over hatch" person driving. Thus, the first, generally smaller cover part at the edge facing the second cover part have a convexly curved contour, which engages in the closed state of the cover parts in a corresponding concave curved contour in the opposite edge of the second, larger cover part.

Die erfindungsgemäße Schutzeinrichtung bietet außer der Sicherung einer "über Luke" fahrenden Person gegen Verletzungen weitere Vorteile. So können beispielsweise einer oder beide Deckelteile an ihrer Außenseite mit einer Schutzschicht aus schussfestem Material versehen sein. Beim ersten hinteren Deckelteil hat dies den besonderen Vorteil, dass der Kopf der "über Luke" fahrenden Person gegen Beschuss von hinten geschützt ist.The protective device according to the invention offers except the fuse a person driving "over Luke" against injury further benefits. Thus, for example, one or both cover parts may be provided on their outside with a protective layer of ballistic material. In the case of the first rear cover part, this has the particular advantage that the head of the person driving over the hatch is protected against being hit from behind.

Es ist auch möglich, an der Außenseite der beiden Deckelteile weiteres ballistisches Schutzmaterial wie Verbundpanzerplatten oder Schutzelemente gegen Hohlladungsgeschosse anzubringen. Damit wird sowohl bei geöffnetem als auch bei geschlossenem Lukendeckel ein erhöhter Schutz erreicht. Dies bringt den zusätzlichen Vorteil mit sich, dass der Lukendeckel selbst nicht oder nur in geringerem Maße mit einem verstärkten Schutz versehen sein muss, der unter Umständen die Unterbringung des Lukendeckels im geöffneten Zustand innerhalb eines Schutzgehäuses erschwert, wie in EP 1 621 844 A1 beschrieben.It is also possible to attach further ballistic protective material such as composite armor plates or protective elements against shaped charge projectiles on the outside of the two cover parts. This ensures increased protection both when the hatch cover is open and when it is closed. This has the additional advantage that the hatch itself or not to a lesser extent must be provided with a reinforced protection that may make it difficult to accommodate the hatch cover in the open state within a protective housing, as in EP 1 621 844 A1 described.

Weiterhin ist es möglich, die beiden Deckelteile mit elektrischen Sicherheitseinrichtungen des Kampffahrzeugs zu verbinden in der Weise, dass eine Bewegung der Waffe oder des Turms nur freigegeben ist, wenn beide Deckelteile geschlossen sind, so dass die "über Luke" fahrende Person nicht durch derartige Bewegungen gefährdet werden kann.Furthermore, it is possible to connect the two cover parts with electrical safety devices of the combat vehicle in such a way that a movement of the weapon or the tower is only released when both lid parts are closed, so that the person driving "on hatch" not by such movements can be endangered.

Die erfindungsgemäße Schutzeinrichtung kann in sehr vorteilhafter Weise bei Schiebeluken für Kampfpanzer eingesetzt werden, wie sie beispielsweise in den eingangs genannten Druckschriften beschrieben sind, sie kann aber auch bei Ein-/Ausstiegsluken anderer Bauart verwendet werden, beispielsweise Luken, deren Lukendeckel nach der Seite in einer horizontalen Ebene wegschwenkbar ist.The protective device according to the invention can be used in a very advantageous manner in sliding hatches for main battle tanks, as they For example, in the documents mentioned above, but they can also be used in entry / exit hatches of other types, such as hatches, the hatch cover is wegschwenkbar to the side in a horizontal plane.

Im Folgenden wird anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen ein Ausführungsbeispiel für eine Schutzeinrichtung nach der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the following an embodiment of a protective device according to the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Die Zeichnungen zeigen die Dachplatte 1 eines im übrigen nicht dargestellten Kampfpanzers oder Kampfpanzerturms, in der, wie insbesondere aus Fig. 9 ersichtlich, eine Lukenöffnung 2 angeordnet ist, die als Schiebeluke ausgebildet ist, das heißt, sie ist durch einen Lukendeckel 3 verschließbar, welcher oberhalb des oberen Randes der Lukenöffnung 2 angeordnet und zum Öffnen und Schließen parallel zur Ebene der Lukenöffnung verschiebbar ist. Im geöffneten Zustand ist der Lukendeckel innerhalb eines mit der Dachplatte 1 fest verbundenen Schutzgehäuses 4 angeordnet. Einzelheiten einer derartigen Schiebeluke sind an sich bekannt und beispielsweise in EP 1 621 844 A1 beschrieben.The drawings show the roof panel 1 of a battle tank or battle tank tower, not shown otherwise, in which, as in particular Fig. 9 can be seen, a hatch opening 2 is arranged, which is designed as a sliding hatch, that is, it is closed by a hatch cover 3, which is arranged above the upper edge of the hatch opening 2 and for opening and closing parallel to the plane of the hatch opening slidable. In the opened state, the hatch cover is arranged inside a protective housing 4 fixedly connected to the roof panel 1. Details of such a sliding hatch are known per se and, for example, in EP 1 621 844 A1 described.

Über der Lukenöffnung 2 ist im Bereich oberhalb des vom Lukendeckel 3 bei der Schließbewegung durchquerten Raumbereiches auf der Dachplatte 1 ein im Wesentlichen ringförmiges Aufsatzstück 6 angeordnet, das gleichzeitig eine Abdeckung für im Bereich der Luke angeordnete Winkelspiegel 5.1 - 5.6 darstellt und eine parallel zur Lukenöffnung angeordnete Deckplatte 6.1 besitzt, in der im Wesentlichen konzentrisch zur Lukenöffnung 2 eine Durchstiegsöffnung 6.2 angeordnet ist (siehe z.B. Fig. 8 und 9). Diese Durchstiegsöffnung 6.2 ist durch zwei in entgegengesetzter Richtung nach außen aufschwenkbare Deckelteile 7 und 8 verschließbar. Hierbei ist ein erster Deckelteil 7 um eine horizontale, in Ausblickrichtung gesehen hinter der Durchstiegsöffnung 6.2 angeordnete erste Schwenkachse 7.1 um einen vorgegebenen Winkel nach hinten verschwenkbar. Ein zweiter Deckelteil 8 ist um eine horizontale, in Ausblickrichtung gesehen vor der Durchstiegsöffnung 6.2 angeordnete zweite Schwenkachse 8.1 um einen vorgegebenen Winkel nach vorne aufschwenkbar.Above the hatch opening 2, a substantially annular attachment piece 6 is arranged in the region above the area covered by the hatch cover 3 during the closing movement on the roof panel 1, which at the same time constitutes a cover for angular mirrors 5.1-5.6 arranged in the region of the hatch and which is arranged parallel to the hatch opening Cover plate 6.1 has, in the substantially concentric with the hatch opening 2 a passage opening 6.2 is arranged (see, eg Fig. 8 and 9 ). This access opening 6.2 can be closed by two cover parts 7 and 8 swiveling outwards in the opposite direction. Here, a first cover part 7 is pivotable about a horizontal, seen in the viewing direction behind the access opening 6.2 first pivot axis 7.1 by a predetermined angle to the rear. A second cover part 8 is pivotable about a horizontal, seen in the viewing direction in front of the access opening 6.2 second pivot axis 8.1 by a predetermined angle to the front aufschwenkbar.

Der erste hintere Deckelteil 7 ist an seiner Unterseite mit abpolsterndem Material 7.3 versehen und bildet, wie insbesondere den Fig. 3 und 5 gut zu entnehmen, eine Kopfstütze für eine Person K, die über die Lukenöffnung 2 hinausragend so sitzt, dass sich Kopf und Hals im Bereich der Durchstiegsöffnung 6.2 befinden.The first rear lid part 7 is provided on its underside with abpolsterndem material 7.3 and forms, in particular the Fig. 3 and 5 good to take, a headrest for a person K, which protrudes over the hatch opening 2 so that head and neck are in the area of the access opening 6.2.

Der zweite vordere Deckelteil 8 ist an seinem im herabgeschwenkten Zustand dem ersten Deckelteil 7 und damit dem Kopf der Person K zugewandten Rand mit abpolsterndem Material 8.3, also beispielsweise einem Gummiring, versehen.The second front cover part 8 is provided at its in the swung-down state the first cover part 7 and thus the head of the person K facing edge with abpolsterndem material 8.3, so for example a rubber ring.

Wie den Zeichnungen zu entnehmen, sind die beiden Deckelteile 7 und 8 in besonderer Weise ausgestaltet, indem der erste kleinere Deckelteil 7 an seinem im geschlossenen Zustand dem zweiten Deckelteil 8 zugewandten Rand 7.2 mit einer konvex gekrümmten Kontur versehen ist, die im geschlossenen Zustand (Fig. 1) der Deckelteile in eine entsprechend konkav gekrümmte Kontur im gegenüberliegenden Rand 8.2 des zweiten größeren Deckelteils 8 eingreift.As can be seen from the drawings, the two cover parts 7 and 8 are designed in a special way in that the first smaller cover part 7 is provided with a convexly curved contour at its edge 7.2 facing the second cover part 8 in the closed state. Fig. 1 ) engages the cover parts in a corresponding concave curved contour in the opposite edge 8.2 of the second larger cover part 8.

Weiterhin ist der erste Deckelteil an seiner Außenseite mit einer Schutzschicht 7.4 aus schussfestem Material versehen. Der zweite Deckelteil 8 besitzt ebenfalls an seiner Außenseite eine Schutzschicht 8.4 aus schussfestem Material, die so angeordnet ist, dass sie in einem vorgegebenen Abstand vor dem mit abpolsterndem Material 8.3 versehenen Rand 8.2 endet, so dass hier die Abpolsterung nicht gestört ist. Beide Deckelteile 7 und 8 sind somit aus zwei Schichten aufgebaut, von denen jeweils die äußere Schicht 7.4 bzw. 8.4 eine Schutzschicht darstellt, während die innere Schicht 7.3 und 8.3 aus einem abpolsterndem Material, beispielsweise mit Schaumstruktur, bestehen kann.Furthermore, the first cover part is provided on its outside with a protective layer 7.4 of bulletproof material. The second cover part 8 also has on its outer side a protective layer 8.4 of bullet-proof material, which is arranged so that it ends at a predetermined distance in front of the provided with padding material 8.3 edge 8.2, so that here the padding is not disturbed. Both cover parts 7 and 8 are thus constructed of two layers, of which in each case the outer layer 7.4 or 8.4 represents a protective layer, while the inner layer 7.3 and 8.3 can consist of a cushioning material, for example with a foam structure.

An der Außenseite der beiden Deckelteile 7 und 8 können in nicht dargestellter Weise weitere ballistische Schutzelemente, beispielsweise auch gegen Hohlladungen schützende Elemente, angeordnet sein. Weiterhin kann in ebenfalls nicht dargestellter Weise an der Außenseite des ersten Deckelteils 7 eine diesen Deckelteil nach vorne überragende Abdeckplatte angeordnet sein, durch die im geschlossenen Zustand der Deckelteile 7 und 8 der Randbereich des Deckelteils 8, der mit abpolsterndem Material 8.3 versehen ist, abgedeckt wird, so dass im geschlossenen Zustand der Deckelteile 7 und 8 auch in diesem Bereich ein durchgehender Schutz erreicht wird.On the outside of the two cover parts 7 and 8 can be arranged in a manner not shown further ballistic protective elements, for example, against shaped charges protective elements. Furthermore, in a manner also not shown on the outside of the first cover part 7, a cover plate projecting forward this cover part can be arranged, is covered by the lid portion 7 and 8 in the closed state of the edge portion of the lid part 8, which is provided with abpolsterndem material 8.3 , so that in the closed state of the lid parts 7 and 8, a continuous protection is achieved in this area.

Die verschiedenen möglichen Betriebszustände der in den Fig. 1 bis 9 dargestellten Schutzeinrichtung sind Folgende.The various possible operating states of the in the Fig. 1 to 9 shown protection device are the following.

Fig. 1, 2 und 9 zeigen die Schutzeinrichtung im vollständig geschlossenen Zustand, wobei der Lukendeckel geöffnet oder geschlossen sein kann. Die Fig. 3 bis 5 zeigen die Schutzeinrichtung mit bis zu einem vorgegebenen Winkel geöffnetem ersten Deckelteil 7 und geschlossenem zweiten Deckelteil 8. In dieser Stellung kann "über Luke" gefahren werden, und der Kopf der Person K ist an seiner Rückseite durch das als Kopfstütze wirkende erste Deckelteil 7 abgestützt, während die Abpolsterung 8.3 am inneren Rand des zweiten Deckelteils 8 Verletzungen an der Vorderseite des Kopfes und Halses bei einem Aufprall verhindert. Fig. 1 . 2 and 9 show the protection device in the fully closed state, the hatch cover can be opened or closed. The Fig. 3 to 5 show the protective device with open up to a predetermined angle first cover part 7 and closed second cover part 8.
