Abstract

Eine Einrichtung zum Lagern und Starten zumindest eines Tauchkörpers (4) in einem Unterseeboot weist ein durch den Druckkörper (10) des Unterseeboots geführtes Ausstoßrohr (6), insbesondere Torpedorohr, auf. Darüber hinaus weist die Einrichtung ein Tragwerk (8) zum Lagern und Führen des Tauchkörpers (4) in dem Ausstoßrohr (6) und Mittel zum Starten des Tauchkörpers (4) aus dem Ausstoßrohr (6)auf. Das Tragwerk (8) ist derart offen ausgebildet, dass ein in einer Richtung quer zu seiner Längsachse im Wesentlichen frei durchströmbarer Raum zwischen Ausstoßrohr (6) und Tauchkörper (4) gebildet ist.

Figure imgaf001
A device for storing and starting at least one immersion body (4) in a submarine has an ejection tube (6), in particular a torpedo tube, guided by the pressure body (10) of the submarine. In addition, the device has a supporting structure (8) for supporting and guiding the immersion body (4) in the ejection tube (6) and means for starting the immersion body (4) from the ejection tube (6). The supporting structure (8) is designed to be open in such a way that a space between discharge tube (6) and immersion body (4) which is essentially free to flow in a direction transverse to its longitudinal axis is formed.
