Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine bedienbare Plattform mit integrierter Aufrichtkinematik auf dem Rotorteil zur gleichzeitigen Aufnahme von Sensoren, Flugkörpern und Projektilwaffen.The invention relates to an operable platform with integrated erection kinematics on the rotor part for the simultaneous recording of sensors, missiles and projectile weapons.

Um neuen Bedrohungen effektiv zu begegnen, ist in den letzten Jahren der Bedarf nach fernsteuerbaren Plattformen entstanden, die mit Sensorik und Wirkmitteln ausgestattet werden können. So wurde von der Anmelderin zum Schutz leichter, luftbeweglicher Verbände im Rahmen von Krisenreaktionseinsätzen der Lenkwaffenwerfer "Asrad" entwickelt, dessen Waffenplattform auf unterschiedliche Trägerfahrzeuge adaptiert werden kann.In order to effectively counter new threats, the need for remote-controlled platforms that can be equipped with sensors and agents has arisen in recent years. For example, the applicant developed the "Asrad" guided missile launcher for the protection of light, air-mobile associations in the context of crisis response missions, the weapon platform of which can be adapted to different carrier vehicles.

Die derzeit verfügbaren Lösungen weisen die Einschränkung auf, dass sie entweder

  • nur in der Lage sind, in Verbindung mit Sensorik nur Flugkörper oder Projektilwaffen zu tragen,
  • nur in der Lage sind, eine einzige Flugkörpervariante aufzunehmen, oder
  • nicht über eine integrierte Aufrichtkinematik verfügen, oder
  • durch Personal im Rotor der Plattform bedient werden müssen.
The currently available solutions have the limitation that they either
  • are only able to carry missiles or projectile weapons in connection with sensors,
  • are only able to accept a single missile variant, or
  • do not have integrated erection kinematics, or
  • must be operated by personnel in the rotor of the platform.

Die DE 35 18 551 A1 beschreibt hierzu ein Kampffahrzeug mit unbemannter, elevierbarer und horizontal ausfahrbarer Kampfplattform. Hierbei wird ein ausfahrbarer Arm, der drehbar am Fahrzeug gelagert ist, beschrieben. Da dieser Aufbau nur an Fahrzeugen mit kurzem Mast angebracht werden kann, ist eine Adaption auf unterschiedliche Trägerfahrzeuge schwierig.The DE 35 18 551 A1 describes a combat vehicle with an unmanned, elevatable and horizontally extendable combat platform. Here, an extendable arm that is rotatably mounted on the vehicle is described. Because of this Can only be attached to vehicles with a short mast, adaptation to different carrier vehicles is difficult.

Die WO 2006/063570 A1 beschreibt ein Kampffahrzeug mit Flugabwehrsystem. Dieses System beschreibt ein Fahrzeug mit drehbarem Rotor, auf welchem eine elevierbare Waffeneinrichtung angeordnet ist. Dieses Fahrzeug muss allerdings durch Personal im Fahrzeug bedient werden.The WO 2006/063570 A1 describes a combat vehicle with an anti-aircraft system. This system describes a vehicle with a rotatable rotor on which an elevatable weapon device is arranged. However, this vehicle must be operated by personnel in the vehicle.

Die Effektivität zur Abwehr von Bedrohungen ließe sich weiter steigern, wenn ferngesteuerte modulare Plattform unterschiedliche Flugkörpertypen und zugleich eine Projektilwaffe aufnehmen könnten. Dazu wären bei den bekannten Systemen entweder umfangreiche Eingriffe in die Struktur des tragenden Systems erforderlich, oder sie wären durch eigene Größe und Gewicht nur für eine eingeschränkte Auswahl von Trägersystemen geeignet. Zudem müssten zur Bedienung bestehender Systeme Spezialkonsolen zur Anpassung entwickelt werden.The effectiveness of countering threats could be further increased if remote-controlled modular platforms could accommodate different types of missiles and at the same time a projectile weapon. For this purpose, the known systems would either require extensive interventions in the structure of the supporting system, or their own size and weight would only make them suitable for a limited selection of carrier systems. In addition, special consoles for adaptation would have to be developed to operate existing systems.

Um die Kräfte der Projektilwaffe aufnehmen zu können, benötigt die Waffenplattform eine ausreichend große Stabilität. Gleichzeitig soll sie bei möglichst geringem Raumbedarf transportabel sein.The weapon platform requires sufficient stability to be able to absorb the forces of the projectile weapon. At the same time, it should be portable with the smallest possible space requirement.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Waffenplattform zu schaffen, die eine ausreichend große Stabilität aufweist, bei möglichst geringem Raumbedarf transportabel ist und die vorstehend beschriebenen Nachteile nicht aufweist.The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a weapon platform which is sufficiently stable, can be transported with as little space as possible and does not have the disadvantages described above.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Auf dem Rotor sind zumindest ein Flugkörper und zumindest eine Projektilwaffe auf einer Elevationsachse gelagert. Die waagerechte Elevationsachse selbst ist auf einer Schwinge gelagert, die mit einer Drehbewegung um eine waagerechte und zur Elevationsachse parallelen Achse in unterschiedliche Winkelstellungen gebracht werden kann. Die Schwinge ist das wesentliche Bestandteil einer Aufrichteinheit, mittels der die Flugkörper und die Projektilwaffe, vorzugsweise ein Maschinengewehr, von einer Feuerposition in eine abgelegte Position bewegt werden kann, in der die gesamte Plattform für den Transport einen verringerten Platzbedarf aufweist. Der Stator, um den sich der Rotor dreht, ist mit dem Trägersystem fest verbunden.This object is solved by the features of claim 1. At least one missile and at least one projectile weapon are mounted on the rotor on an elevation axis. The horizontal axis of elevation itself is mounted on a rocker which can be brought into different angular positions with a rotary movement about a horizontal axis parallel to the axis of elevation. The rocker is the essential component of an erection unit, by means of which the missile and the projectile weapon, preferably a machine gun, can be moved from a firing position into a stored position, in which the entire platform for transport is reduced Has space requirements. The stator around which the rotor rotates is firmly connected to the carrier system.

Bevorzugt ist die Sensorik auf dem Rotor eingebaut und kann in Elevationsrichtung unabhängig bewegt werden. Bevorzugt kann sie zusätzlich um eine Achse parallel zur Rotorachse gedreht werden.The sensor system is preferably installed on the rotor and can be moved independently in the elevation direction. It can preferably also be rotated about an axis parallel to the rotor axis.

Die Erfindung hat mehrere Vorteile: Die erfindungsgemäße Waffenplattform lässt sich mit geringem Anpassungsaufwand modular in unterschiedliche Trägerplattformen integrieren. Ebenso lassen sich unterschiedliche Flugkörpertypen modular integrieren. Es lässt sich eine querschnittliche Bedienung durch unterschiedliche Bedienkonzepte realisieren. Dazu weist die Plattform bevorzugt eine offene Schnittstelle zu standardisierten Steuerungs- und/oder Kommunikationselementen auf. Eine gleichzeitige Nutzung von Flugkörpern und Projektilwaffen auf einer querschnittlich bedienbaren Waffenplattform ist möglich, und es lassen sich modulare stabilisierte Sensorsysteme zur Feuerleitung von Flugkörpern und Projektilwaffen integrieren.The invention has several advantages: The weapon platform according to the invention can be modularly integrated into different carrier platforms with little adaptation effort. Different types of missiles can also be integrated modularly. Cross-sectional operation can be implemented using different operating concepts. For this purpose, the platform preferably has an open interface to standardized control and / or communication elements. Simultaneous use of missiles and projectile weapons is possible on a cross-sectionally operable weapon platform, and modular stabilized sensor systems for fire control of missiles and projectile weapons can be integrated.

In Figur 1 sind verschiedene Trägersysteme mit der erfindungsgemäßen Waffenplattform dargestellt. Als Trägersysteme werden leichte gepanzerte Fahrzeuge, Kettenfahrzeuge oder auch Schiffe verwendet. Ebenso lässt sich das Trägersystem zum Schutz von ortsfesten Anlagen auch ortsfest installieren.In Figure 1 Various carrier systems are shown with the weapon platform according to the invention. Light armored vehicles, tracked vehicles or ships are used as carrier systems. The carrier system for protecting stationary systems can also be installed stationary.

Die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen in verschiedenen Schrägansichten eine Waffenplattform nach der Erfindung.The Figures 2 and 3 show in various oblique views a weapon platform according to the invention.

Die Waffenplattform weist einen Stator 1 auf, der mit dem Trägersystem fest verbunden ist. Um den Stator 1 dreht ein Rotor 2 um eine senkrechte Azimutachse 3, auf dem ein oder mehrere Lenkflugkörper 4, ein Maschinengewehr 5 und die zugehörige Sensoreinrichtung 6, hier ein stabilisiertes elektro-optisches Sensorpaket, angeordnet sind. Das Sensorpaket enthält eine IR-Kamera, eine Tagsichtkamera und ein Laserentfernungsmessungsgerät.The weapon platform has a stator 1 which is firmly connected to the carrier system. A rotor 2 rotates around the stator 1 about a vertical azimuth axis 3, on which one or more guided missiles 4, a machine gun 5 and the associated sensor device 6, here a stabilized electro-optical sensor package, are arranged. The sensor package contains an IR camera, a day vision camera and a laser distance measuring device.

Zur Zielausrichtung sind die beiden mechanischen Flugkörperaufnahmen 7 gemeinsam mit dem Maschinengewehr 5 an einer horizontalen Elevationsachse 8 schwenkbar gelagert.The two mechanical missile receptacles 7, together with the machine gun 5, are pivotally mounted on a horizontal elevation axis 8 for the purpose of aiming.

Die senkrecht zur Drehachse des Rotors 2 verlaufende Elevationsachse 8 mit den an ihr gelagerten Teilen (Flugkörperaufnahmen 7 mit Flugkörpern 4, Maschinengewehr 5) sind mittels einer Aufrichteinheit 9 in eine Transportposition absenkbar, in der die Waffenplattform einen wesentlich geringeren Platzbedarf hat. In der Transportposition sind die Aufnahmen 7 in den Zwischenraum vor der Sensoreinrichtung 6 abgesenkt. Damit die Absenkbewegung ohne eine Kippbewegung der Flugkörper 4 stattfindet, ist die Elevationsachse 8 auf einer Schwinge gelagert, die mit einer Drehbewegung in unterschiedliche Winkelstellungen gebracht werden kann. Die Drehbewegung erfolgt mittels eines elektrischen Motors über einen Zahnkranz. Die Aufrichteinheit 9 mit ihren Bestandteilen ist auf dem frei drehbaren Rotor 2 der Plattform gelagert.The elevation axis 8, running perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rotor 2, with the parts mounted on it (missile receptacles 7 with missiles 4, machine gun 5) can be lowered by means of an erecting unit 9 into a transport position in which the weapon platform takes up a significantly smaller space. In the transport position, the receptacles 7 are lowered into the space in front of the sensor device 6. So that the lowering movement takes place without the rockets 4 tilting, the elevation axis 8 is mounted on a rocker arm which can be brought into different angular positions with a rotary movement. The rotary movement takes place by means of an electric motor via a ring gear. The erection unit 9 with its components is mounted on the freely rotatable rotor 2 of the platform.

Die Sensoreinrichtung 6 ist unabhängig von dem Rotor 2 um zwei unabhängige Achsen drehbar gelagert, wobei die Elevationsachse parallel zur Elevationsachse 8 der Waffen und die zweite Drehachse parallel zur Drehachse des Rotors 2 verläuft. Die Sensoreinrichtung 6 kann so unabhängig von den Waffen ausgerichtet werden.The sensor device 6 is rotatably supported about two independent axes independently of the rotor 2, the elevation axis running parallel to the elevation axis 8 of the weapons and the second axis of rotation parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotor 2. The sensor device 6 can thus be aligned independently of the weapons.

Die Waffenplattform ist so gestaltet, dass unterschiedliche Bedienkonzepte realisiert werden können. Dazu weist sie eine offene Schnittstelle zu standardisierten Steuerungs- und Kommunikationselementen auf.The weapon platform is designed so that different operating concepts can be implemented. For this purpose, it has an open interface to standardized control and communication elements.
