Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Lagern und Ausbringen von Tauchkörpern in einem Unterseeboot mit den im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen.The invention relates to a device for storing and deploying submerged bodies in a submarine with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1.
In modernen Unterseebooten ist es üblich, außerhalb des Druckkörpers Vorrichtungen vorzusehen, in denen Tauchkörper wie beispielsweise Effektoren zur Torpedoabwehr in rohrförmigen Lagerungsbehältern gelagert werden. Gleichzeitig dienen diese Vorrichtungen auch zum Ausbringen der Tauchkörper, die zu diesem Zweck aus den Lagerungsbehältern ausgestoßen werden.In modern submarines, it is customary to provide devices outside the pressure hull in which immersion bodies, such as, for example, effectors for torpedo defense, are stored in tubular storage containers. At the same time, these devices also serve to deploy the immersion bodies, which are ejected for this purpose from the storage containers.
Wegen der mit zunehmender Tauchtiefe ansteigenden Druckbelastung der Lagerungsbehälter ist es üblich, diese so auszugestalten, dass sie einen Druckausgleich zwischen dem Innen- und dem Umgebungsdruck des Lagerungsbehälters ermöglichen. Hierzu ist, wie beispielsweise in
Das Bestücken solcher Lagerungsbehälter mit Tauchkörpern ist insbesondere wegen des anschließenden Befüllens mit der Schutzflüssigkeit aufwändig. Begründet ist dies in dem Erfordernis, die Flüssigkeitsmenge exakt zu bemessen, da sich eine zu große oder zu kleine Flüssigkeitsmenge unter entsprechenden Temperaturbedingungen entweder über ein zulässiges Maß ausdehnen oder zusammenziehen würde, was die den Lagerungsbehälter verschließende Membran zerstören und in der Folge zu Schäden an dem Tauchkörper führen kann.The loading of such storage containers with immersion bodies is expensive, in particular because of the subsequent filling with the protective liquid. This is due to the requirement to accurately measure the amount of liquid, as too large or too small amount of liquid under appropriate temperature conditions would either expand or contract to an acceptable level, which destroy the membrane occluding the storage container and as a result damage to the Can lead immersion body.
Vor diesem Hintergrund ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung für das Lagern und das Ausbringen von Tauchkörpern zu schaffen, die in einfacher Weise mit den Tauchkörpern bestückt werden kann, in der die Tauchkörper sicher gelagert sind und die daneben das zuverlässige Ausbringen der Tauchkörper ermöglicht.Against this background, it is the object of the invention to provide a device for storing and dispensing submerged bodies, which can be fitted in a simple manner with the submerged bodies, in which the submerged bodies are stored safely and in addition allows reliable deployment of the submerged bodies ,

Durch Bewegen des Kolbens in dem Zylinder und damit einhergehend durch Bewegen der Umlenkrolle wird das Zugmittel gespannt und das in dem Lagerungsbehälter befindliche Ende des Zugmittels mit dem daran angeordneten Mitnehmer samt Tauchkörper in Richtung einer Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters gezogen bis der Tauchkörper aus dem Lagerungsbehälter ausgebracht ist.About the deflection roller, the traction means is guided, with which the piston is coupled in motion with the immersion body. The traction means are preferably a cable whose one end is fastened to the device and the other end of which is guided in a pressure-tight manner into the storage container and fastened there to a driver arranged on the rear side of the immersion body therein. The driver is guided here in the storage container movable. By moving the piston in the cylinder and concomitantly by moving the deflection roller, the traction means is tensioned and located in the storage container end of the traction device with the driver arranged thereon including the immersion body in the direction of a discharge opening of the storage container until the immersion body is discharged from the storage container.
Zweckmäßigerweise sind die bewegungsfeste vorrichtungsseitige Befestigung des Zugmittels und die Bewegungsrichtung des Kolbens mit der daran angeordneten Umlenkrolle so gewählt, dass der Bewegungsweg des Mitnehmers in dem Lagerungsbehälter gegenüber dem Bewegungsweg des Kolbens in dem Zylinder verdoppelt wird. Dies ermöglicht es, wie in einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung vorgesehen, den Bewegungsweg des Kolbens in dem Zylinder zu begrenzen. Auf diese Weise wird verhindert, dass der Kolben aus dem Zylinder herausbewegt wird, was ungünstigstenfalls zu einer Beeinflussung oder Beschädigung eines sich bereits außerhalb des Lagerungsbehälters befindlichen Tauchkörpers führen könnte.Conveniently, the movement-fixed device-side attachment of the traction means and the direction of movement of the piston with the deflection roller arranged thereon are selected such that the path of travel of the carrier in the storage container is doubled with respect to the movement path of the piston in the cylinder. This makes it possible, as provided in a further advantageous embodiment, to limit the path of movement of the piston in the cylinder. In this way it is prevented that the piston is moved out of the cylinder, which could lead at worst to an influence or damage to an already located outside of the storage container immersion body.
Bevorzugt wird der Bewegungsweg des Kolbens mittels eines innerhalb des Kolbens befindlichen Auffangrohres begrenzt, das zweckmäßigerweise an seinem von dem Kolben abgewandten Ende verschlossen ist. Erreicht der Kolben das Auffangrohr, wird er in diesem abgebremst und schließlich zum Stillstand gebracht.Preferably, the path of movement of the piston is limited by means of a collecting tube located within the piston, which is expediently closed at its end remote from the piston. When the piston reaches the collecting tube, it is slowed down and finally brought to a standstill.
Um den im Lagerungszustand erfindungsgemäß flüssigkeitsfreien Innenraum des Lagerungsbehälters schnell und tauchtiefenunabhängig vor dem Ausbringen des Tauchkörpers fluten zu können, sind entsprechende Mittel zum Befluten des Lagerungsbehälters vorgesehen.In order to be able to flood the interior of the storage container according to the invention, which is liquid-free in the storage state, quickly and immersion-independently before applying the immersion body, appropriate means for flooding the storage container are provided.
So ist zum Befluten des Lagerungsbehälters an diesem vorteilhaft mindestens ein Ventil vorgesehen, über welches das den Lagerungsbehälter im getauchten Zustand umgebende Wasser nach einer Betätigung des Ventils in den Lagerungsbehälter einfließen kann. Bevorzugt ist das Ventil mittels eines Druckmediums betätigbar, wobei zur Betätigung des Ventils besonders vorteilhaft das Druckmedium verwendet wird, welches ansonsten zur. Druckbeaufschlagung des Kolbens zum Ausbringen des Tauchkörpers vorgesehen ist.Thus, at least one valve is advantageously provided for flooding the storage container, by means of which the water surrounding the storage container in the submerged state can flow into the storage container after actuation of the valve. Preferably, the valve can be actuated by means of a pressure medium, wherein for the actuation of the valve particularly advantageous the pressure medium is used, which otherwise for. Pressurization of the piston is provided for discharging the immersion body.
Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist eine Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters mittels eines Deckels verschließbar, der einen Ventilkörper bildet. Vorzugsweise verschließt dieser Deckel eine der beiden Stirnseiten des rohrförmigen Lagerungsbehälters, wobei der Deckel lediglich mittels eines Kraftschlusses, beispielsweise mittels einer Federvorspannung, in eine die stirnseitige Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters druckdicht verschließende Stellung gedrückt wird. Gleichzeitig sind bei dieser Weiterbildung zweckmäßigerweise Mittel vorgesehen, mit denen vorzugsweise mittels eines Druckmediums eine dem Kraftschluss entgegen gerichtete Kraft auf den Deckel ausgeübt werden kann, die den Deckel in eine die Behälteröffnung freigebende Stellung bewegt, in der das den Lagerungsbehälter umgebende Wasser in diesen eindringen kann.According to a development of the device according to the invention, an opening of the storage container can be closed by means of a lid which forms a valve body. Preferably, this cover closes one of the two end faces of the tubular storage container, wherein the lid is pressed only by means of a frictional connection, for example by means of a spring bias, in a pressure-tight closing the end-side opening of the storage container position. At the same time, means are expediently provided in this development, with which preferably by means of a pressure medium a frictional force directed against the lid can be exercised, which moves the lid in a position releasing the container opening, in which the surrounding storage container water can penetrate into this ,
Vorteilhaft bildet der die Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters verschließende Deckel eine Kolben-Zylinder-Anordnung mit einem feststehenden Kolben und einem bewegbaren Zylinder. Dementsprechend weist der Deckel, der bei dieser Ausbildung den Ventilkörper bildet, zumindest einen hohlzylindrischen Bereich auf, in dem ein Kolben geführt ist. Zusammen mit einem den hohlzylindrischen Bereich einseitig verschließenden Verschluss definiert der Kolben eine zweckmäßigerweise druckbeaufschlagbare Zylinderkammer, deren Druckbeaufschlagung zu einer Bewegung des Zylinders, d. h. des Deckels in eine die Behälteröffnung freigebende Stellung führt, so dass Wasser über einen zwischen Lagerungsbehälter und Deckel entstehenden Spalt in den Lagerungsbehälter eindringen kann.Advantageously, the cover closing the opening of the storage container forms a piston-cylinder arrangement with a fixed piston and a movable cylinder. Accordingly, the lid, which forms the valve body in this embodiment, at least a hollow cylindrical portion in which a piston is guided. Together with a closure closing the hollow-cylindrical area on one side, the piston defines a cylinder chamber which can be pressurized and expediently pressurizes it to move the cylinder, ie. H. the lid leads into a position releasing the container opening, so that water can penetrate into the storage container via a gap formed between the storage container and the lid.
Zum Ausbringen des Tauchkörpers ist eine weitere Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters, die dessen Ausstoßöffnung bildet, bevorzugt mit einem Deckel verschlossen, welcher mittels der Kolben-Zylinder-Anordnung in eine die Ausstoßöffnung freigebende Stellung bewegbar ist. Hierzu ist der die Ausstoßöffnung druckdicht verschließende Deckel mit dem Zylinder bewegungsgekoppelt. Beispielsweise kann der die Ausstoßöffnung verschließende Deckel schwenkbar an dem Lagerungsbehälter angebracht sein und mittels eines Gestänges mit dem Zylinder verbunden sein. Dieses Gestänge überträgt die Bewegung des Zylinders zum Fluten des Lagerungsbehälters in einer Aufschwenkbewegung des die Ausstoßöffnung verschließenden Deckels.For discharging the immersion body, a further opening of the storage container, which forms its ejection opening, preferably closed with a lid, which is movable by means of the piston-cylinder arrangement in a position releasing the ejection opening. For this purpose, the pressure-tightly closing the discharge opening cover with the cylinder is motion-coupled. For example, the cover closing the discharge opening may be pivotally mounted on the storage container and connected to the cylinder by means of a linkage. This linkage transmits the movement of the cylinder for flooding the storage container in a pivoting movement of the lid closing the discharge opening.
Der Lagerungsbehälter ist bevorzugt als ein doppelwandiges Rohr ausgebildet, d. h., der Lagerungsbehälter weist ein äußeres Rohr auf, in dem ein inneres Rohr, das zur eigentlichen Lagerung des Tauchkörpers dient, angeordnet ist. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung ist das innere Rohr bevorzugt von dem äußeren Rohr beabstandet, so dass zwischen innerem und äußerem Rohr ein Ringspalt ausgebildet ist. Weiter vorteilhaft korrespondiert der Innendurchmesser des inneren Rohres bzw. der Innendurchmesser einer Innenverkleidung dieses Rohres mit dem Außendurchmesser des Tauchkörpers. Um in dem Lagerungsbehälter das für das Ausbringen des Tauchkörpers zu bewässernde Volumen möglichst gering zu halten, ist das innere Rohr bevorzugt gegenüber dem äußeren Rohr beidseitig abgedichtet, so dass der Ringspalt zwischen den beiden Rohren nicht geflutet werden muss.The storage container is preferably designed as a double-walled tube, ie, the storage container has an outer tube, in which an inner tube, which serves for the actual storage of the immersion body, is arranged. In this embodiment, the inner tube is preferably spaced from the outer tube, so that between the inner and outer tube, an annular gap is formed. Next advantageous corresponds to the inner diameter of the inner tube or the Inner diameter of an inner lining of this tube with the outer diameter of the immersion body. In order to minimize the volume to be irrigated in the storage container for dispensing the immersion body, the inner tube is preferably sealed on both sides with respect to the outer tube, so that the annular gap between the two tubes does not have to be flooded.
Um den Tauchkörper in dem Lagerungsbehälter schocksicher zu lagern, ist die innere Wandung bzw. das innere Rohr vorteilhaft elastisch in der äußeren Wandung bzw. in dem äußeren Rohr des Lagerungsbehälters gelagert. Die elastische Lagerung des inneren Rohres erfolgt vorteilhafterweise über Feder- bzw. Dämpfungselemente, die in dem Ringspalt zwischen inneren und äußeren Rohr angeordnet sind.To store the immersion body in the storage container shockproof, the inner wall or the inner tube is advantageously mounted elastically in the outer wall or in the outer tube of the storage container. The elastic mounting of the inner tube is advantageously carried out via spring or damping elements, which are arranged in the annular gap between the inner and outer tube.
Weiter vorteilhaft sieht die Erfindung vor, dass in der Vorrichtung zum Lagern und Ausbringen von Tauchkörpern mindestens ein Lagerungsbehälter und typischerweise mehrere Lagerungsbehälter in einem Rahmengestell angeordnet sind, welches ein entfernbares Oberdecksegment des Unterseeboots bildet. Diese Ausgestaltung erlaubt es in vorteilhafter Weise, die Lagerungsbehälter entfernt von dem Unterseeboot, beispielsweise an Land oder auf einem Überwasserbegleitschiff des Unterseeboots zu bestücken.Further advantageously, the invention provides that in the device for storing and deploying immersion bodies at least one storage container and typically a plurality of storage containers are arranged in a frame which forms a removable upper deck segment of the submarine. This embodiment advantageously makes it possible to equip the storage containers away from the submarine, for example on land or on an overwater support ship of the submarine.
Bevorzugt weist das Rahmengestell eine Verkleidung auf, die zweckmäßigerweise im eingebauten Zustand der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung in dem Unterseeboot mit dessen Außenhaut im Bereich des Oberdecks fluchtet. An dieser Verkleidung des Rahmengestells ist vorteilhaft, korrespondierend zur Lage der Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters, eine Klappe angeordnet, die mit einem als Kolbenzylinder ausgebildeten Deckel des Lagerungsbehälters bewegungsgekoppelt ist. Diese Bewegungskopplung kann beispielsweise wie die Bewegungskopplung des die Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters verschließenden Deckels mit dem als Kolbenzylinder ausgebildeten Deckel in der oben beschriebenen Weise mittels eines Gestänges erfolgen.Preferably, the frame on a cladding, which is suitably aligned in the installed state of the device according to the invention in the submarine with its outer skin in the region of the upper deck. At this cladding of the frame is advantageous, corresponding to the position of the ejection opening of the storage container, a flap arranged, which is coupled for movement with a designed as a piston cylinder lid of the storage container. This movement coupling can be done for example as the movement coupling of the discharge opening of the storage container closing lid with the lid formed as a piston cylinder in the manner described above by means of a linkage.

Die beiden Wandungen 6 und 8 des Lagerungsbehälters 2 sind durch einen Ringspalt 10 voneinander beabstandet. In dem Ringspalt 10 sind Dämpfungselemente 12 angeordnet, die den Außenumfang der inneren Wandung 6 ringförmig umfassen. Auf diesen Dämpfungselementen 12 ist die innere Wandung 6 und damit einhergehend der darin befindliche Effektor 4 auf der äußeren Wandung 8 elastisch und damit schocksicher gelagert. Elastische Dichtringe 14 dichten den Ringspalt 10 zwischen der inneren Wandung 6 und der äußeren Wandung 8 an beiden Enden dieser Wandungen 6 und 8 flüssigkeitsdicht ab. Ausgehend von dem in dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 gelagerten Effektor 4 ist die bugseitig des Effektors 4 angeordnete Stirnseite des Lagerungsbehälters 2, die die Ausstoßöffnung für den Effektor 4 bildet, von einem Deckel 16 und die heckseitige des Effektors 4 an der Stirnseite vorgesehene Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 von einem Deckel 18 tauchdruckfest verschlossen. Eine genauere Beschreibung der Deckel 16 und 18 erfolgt an späterer Stelle anhand der
In unmittelbarer Nähe des Lagerungsbehälters 2 ist parallel zu diesem ein Hohlzylinder 20 angeordnet, in dem ein Kolben 22 beweglich geführt ist. Bezogen auf den Lagerungsbehälter 2 schließt sich an dem Hohlzylinder 20 in Nähe des Deckels 18 des Lagerungsbehälters 2 ein Verteilergehäuse 24 mit einem darin angeordneten Druckmittelverteiler 25 an, der mit einem in
Der Kolben 22 ist mittels eines Seils 32 mit dem in dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 befindlichen Effektor 4 bewegungsgekoppelt. Diese Bewegungskopplung wird nachfolgend anhand der
An der Außenseite des Hohlzylinders 20 ist in unmittelbarer Nähe des Verteilergehäuses 24 eine zweite Umlenkrolle 40 befestigt. Eine weitere Umlenkrolle 42 ist an dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 außenseitig dessen Ausstoßöffnung 2 angeordnet. Das Seil 32 ist an einem an dem Verteilergehäuse angeordneten Seilterminal 44 befestigt. Von dort ist das Seil 32 zunächst über die an dem Kolben 22 angeordnete Umlenkrolle 38, von dort zurück zu der in der Nähe des Verteilergehäuses 24 angeordneten Umlenkrolle 40 und anschließend über die Umlenkrolle 42 in den Lagerungsbehälter 2 in Richtung dessen von dem Deckel 18 verschlossenen Stirnseite geführt, wo es an einem Seilterminal 46 eines Mitnehmers 48, der zum Ausbringen des Effektors 4 aus dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 dient, endet. Der Mitnehmer 48 ist dabei in dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 derart angeordnet, dass er an einer an dem Effektor 4 ausgebildeten Heckflosse 50 angreift.On the outside of the
An dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 bildet ein Rohrflansch 52 die von dem Deckel 16 verschlossene Ausstoßöffnung. Durch diesen Rohrflansch 52 wird das Seil 32 über eine dort ausgebildete Seildurchführung 54 in das innere des Lagerungsbehälters 2 geführt. Um ein Eindringen von Wasser in dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 über die Seildurchführung 54 zu verhindern, ist auf dem Seil 32 ein Dichtmittel vulkanisiert, dass die Seildurchführung 54 zusammen mit dem Seil 32 flüssigkeitsdicht verschließt.At the
Wie aus
Um den Lagerungsbehälter 2 vor dem Ausbringen des Effektors 4 bewässern zu können, sind an dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 Ventile als Mittel zum Befluten des Lagerungsbehälters 2 vorgesehen. So sind an dem Deckel 18 Ventile 58 und dem die Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 bildenden Rohrflansch 52 ein Ventil 60 angeordnet, durch deren Öffnen Wasser in das Innere des Lagerungsbehälters 2 einströmen kann.In order to be able to irrigate the
Darüber hinaus bildet der Deckel 18 selbst ein Ventil in Form einer Kolben-Zylinder-Anordnung mit einem relativ zu dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 ortsfesten Kolben 62 und mit einem relativ zu dem Kolben 62 und dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 bewegbaren Zylinder 64, der in eine Stellung bewegt werden kann, in der er die ansonsten von dem Deckel 18 verschlossene Öffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 zumindest teilweise freigibt. Die ortsfeste Anordnung des Kolbens 62 erfolgt über eine von dem Kolben 62 ausgehende Kolbenstange 66, die an einem lagerbehälterseitig angeordneten Rahmen 68 angebunden ist. Hierbei folgt die Befestigung des Rahmens 68 an dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 an einem an der äußeren Wandung 8 des Lagerungsbehälters 2 angeordneten Rohrflansch 70. Um die Kolbenstange 66 ist eine Schraubenfeder 78 angeordnet, die sich einerseits an dem den Zylinder 64 bildenden Bereich des Deckels 18 und andererseits an einem an der Kolbenstange 66 ausgebildeten Absatz 80 abstützt.In addition, the
An dem Deckel 18 ist eine Zylinderkammer 72 ausgebildet. Durch die Kolbenstange 66 ist eine Leitung 74 geführt. Über Bohrungen 76, die einerseits in der Leitung 74 und andererseits in der Zylinderkammer 72 münden, ist die Zylinderkammer 72 mit einem Druckmedium bedruckbar. Den Ausgangspunkt der Leitung 74 bildet der Druckmittelverteiler 25, über den ebenfalls der Hohlzylinder 20 mit dem Druckmedium versorgt wird.On the
Im Bereich einer dem Kolben gegenüberliegenden Wandung der Zylinderkammer 72 sind Bohrungen vorgesehen, in denen Stifte 82 beweglich geführt sind, wobei jeweils ein Ende der Stifte 82 an der Außenseite des Deckels 18 herausragt. Über diese Enden sind die Stifte 82 jeweils mit einer von einem Federblech 84 gebildeten Blattfeder, die einseitig an der Außenseite des Deckels 18 befestigt ist, verbunden. Die radial außenseitig der Stifte 82 angeordneten Ventile 58 sind ebenfalls mit an den Federblechen 84 angebunden.In the region of a wall of the cylinder chamber 72 opposite the piston, bores are provided in which pins 82 are movably guided, one end of each of the pins 82 protruding on the outside of the
In dem Rohrflansch 52 der die Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 bildet, ist eine Ringleitung 86 ausgebildet, die mit der in dem Hohlzylinder 20 mündenden Leitung 28 strömungsverbunden ist. In die Ringleitung 86 mündet eine Bohrung, in der ein Stift 88 bewegbar gelagert ist, wobei ein Ende dieses Stiftes 88 außenseitig des Rohrflansches 52 herausragt. Dieses Ende des Stiftes 88 ist wie das Ventil 60 mit einem Federblech 90 verbunden, welches wie die Federbleche 84 eine Blattfeder bildet.In the
Daneben ist an dem Rohrflansch 52 ein Gelenk 92 vorgesehen, an dem der Deckel 16 über einen an dem Deckel 16 befestigten Hebel 94 schwenkbar angelenkt ist. Ein freies Ende des Hebels 94 ist schwenkbeweglich an einem Gestänge 96 befestigt, wobei das Gestänge 96 seinerseits an dem den Zylinder 64 bildenden Teil des Deckels 18 angebunden ist.In addition, a hinge 92 is provided on the
Nachfolgend ist das Ausbringen eines Effektors 4 aus dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 beschrieben.Hereinafter, the application of an
Zunächst wird der Lagerungsbehälter 2 von den Deckeln 16 und 18 druckdicht verschlossen. Dann wird ein Teil des in dem Druckspeicher 26 befindlichen Druckmediums über die Leitung 74 und die davon ausgehenden Bohrungen 76 in die an dem Deckel 18 ausgebildete Zylinderkammer 72 geleitet, was dort zu einem Druckanstieg führt. Hierdurch werden die Stifte 82 in den Bohrungen, in denen sie beweglich geführt sind, weiter nach außen gedrückt und die Ventile 58 über die Federbleche 84 in eine Stellung bewegt, in der ein Strömungsweg durch die Ventile 58 von der Umgebung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 in das Innere des Lagerungsbehälters 2 freigegeben wird, so dass Wasser über die Ventile 58 in den Lagerungsbehälter 2 strömen kann.First, the
Sobald das in die Zylinderkammer 72 einströmende Druckmedium dort einen solchen Druck aufgebaut hat, der den von außen auf den Deckel 18 wirkenden Federdruck der Schraubenfeder 78 sowie den Wasserdruck übersteigt, expandiert die Zylinderkammer 72, indem der den Zylinder 64 bildende Teil des Deckels 18 von seiner den Lagerungsbehälter 2 verschießenden Stellung wegbewegt wird und weiteres Wasser in den Lagerungsbehälter 2 einströmen kann. Daneben wir die Bewegung der Zylinder 64 über das Gestänge 96 auf den Hebel 94 übertragen und der Deckel 16 aufgeschwenkt. Zuvor ist bereits durch Bedruckung der Ringleitung 86 das Ventil 60 durch Bewegung des Stiftes 88 über das Federblech 90 in eine einen Strömungsweg in das Innere des Lagerungsbehälters freigebende Stellung bewegt worden.As soon as the pressure medium flowing into the cylinder chamber 72 has built up a pressure therebetween which exceeds the spring pressure of the
Sobald der Deckel 16 an der Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 in seine die Ausstoßöffnung freigebende Stellung verschwenkt worden ist, wird das Druckmedium über die Leitung 28 in den Zylinder 20 eingeleitet und der dort befindliche Kolben 22 hierdurch in Bewegung versetzt bis er in dem Ausgangsrohr 30 abgebremst oder gestoppt wird. Durch die Bewegung des Kolbens 22 wird das in dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 befindliche Endes des Seils 32 mit dem daran befestigten Mitnehmer 48 in Richtung der Ausstoßöffnung des Lagerungsbehälters 2 gezogen und der Effektor 4 aus dem Lagerungsbehälter 2 heraustransportiert.Once the
