Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cartridge with a propellant charge powder at least partially filled propellant charge tube and a front side of the propellant charge shell subsequent bullet.
  • the propellant charge sleeve usually consists of a sleeve cover, a sleeve casing and a sleeve bottom made of metal, wherein the existing of a combustible material sleeve casing is connected on the one hand via the sleeve cover with the projectile part and on the other hand via a spring plate and a locking ring with the sleeve bottom.
  • Propellant cases of the aforementioned type can be used both in combat cartridges and training cartridges.
  • the invention has for its object to avoid the above drawback.
  • the invention is based essentially on the idea of centering the propellant charge powder provide in the laboratory space both radially and in the axial direction of the cartridge. But it should be used less as a laboratory aid on filling pieces or Laborierusionn, but rather on a kind of powder bag or bag, which receives the propellant charge and centered. Patches have the disadvantage that, if they are made of styrofoam, they develop hydrochloric acid in the combustion in the pipe or, if they are made of cotton, can get stuck after firing in the tail. The use of Laborierusionn has the disadvantage that the discs must be fixed by means of adhesive.
  • Bagloads for holding propellant charges as such are known in particular in modular propellant charges. However, their task and structure, etc. stored differently than suggested here.
  • the Treiblessnessladungen be supplied to a weapon system separated from a projectile, such as the DE 198 21 050 A1 removable.
  • the arrangement of these bag loads in a gun barrel shows the DE 198 52 360 C2 .
  • a method and apparatus for handling combinable propellant charges are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,376,854 DE 697 21 037 T2 disclosed.
  • the US 5 090323 which serves as a starting point for the preamble of claim 1, relates to an encapsulating bag for a propellant charge. This is designed in two parts and attached far ahead, below a sealing strip on the projectile.
  • a bag-shaped (elongated) container which is completely filled with the appropriate amount of propellant powder is arranged in such a way that the container, and thus also the propellant charge powder, extends in the direction of the central longitudinal axis of the cartridge Longitudinal axis is the symmetry axis of the bag-shaped container at the same time.
  • the bottom-side end portion of the bag-shaped container is also secured by means of a spring plate on the sleeve bottom of the propellant charge shell and the projectile end of the bag-shaped container on a preferably made of injection-molded plastic Laborier Anlagen extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cartridge and / or force with its outer circumference and / or is positively connected to the sleeve casing and / or the sleeve cover of the propellant charge sleeve.
  • the bag is thereby stretched and forms a kind of inner sleeve.
  • the laboratory aid is hat-shaped and has a hemispherical bulge extending in the direction of the projectile part, which adjoins the bag-shaped container axially and has a flat edge region surrounding the bulge, which is provided with the sleeve shell and / or or the sleeve cover is non-positively and / or positively connected.
  • At least two opposing slot-shaped recesses are provided in the transition region between the hemispherical bulge and the flat edge region, passed through which two front, axially separate flag-shaped areas of the bag-shaped container and front side connected to the spherical bulge are.
  • the two flag-shaped end portions of the bag-shaped container can be knotted together or glued to the hemispherical bulge.
  • the Laborier Anlagen itself can be integrated in the Trieibladungshülse and snaps into the sleeve cover. It serves as a positive connection between the sleeve and the sleeve cover. Both are held by a plug or the like.
  • the bag can be filled from above as well as from below.
  • the sleeve cover preferably made of plastic, has at least one guide band with predetermined breaking points and undercuts behind which the laboratory aid can snap.
  • a centering according to the object of the invention by a further sleeve can be created with a smaller diameter than the bullet sleeve.
  • the second narrower sleeve is intended for the propellant charge.
  • the constant diameter improves the internal ballistics.
  • Fig.1 1 denotes a practice cartridge according to the invention which comprises a propellant charge sleeve 2 and a cage projectile 3 fastened to the front of the propellant charge sleeve 2.
  • the latter essentially consists of a subcaliber penetrator 4 with a conical structure (not shown) and a cage 6 (guide cage).
  • the propellant charge tube 2 is composed of a sleeve cover 7, a combustible material consisting of relatively thin sleeve jacket 8 and a steel sleeve base 9 consisting for example of steel.
  • the sleeve jacket 8 is fixed by means of a spring plate 10 and a retaining ring (not shown) in a conventional manner to a central projection 11 of the sleeve bottom 9.
  • This projection 11 is also connected to a known propellant charge igniter 12, which extends axially into the interior of the propellant charge shell 2.
  • the propellant charge powder 13 contained in the propellant charge casing 2 is arranged in a bag-shaped container 14 made of a cotton fabric which extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis 100 of the practice cartridge 1 and whose bottom end region 15 is likewise fastened to the casing bottom 9 by means of the spring plate 10 is so that it also contains the propellant charge 12.
  • the projectile-side end portion 16 of the bag-shaped container 14 is attached to a Laborierford 17 made of plastic.
  • This has in the center a hemispherical bulge 18, which has a diameter which corresponds to the diameter of the bag-shaped container 14, and a flat edge region 19 comprising this bulge 18.
  • the edge region 19 is frontally connected in the transition region between the sleeve jacket 8 and sleeve cover 7 form-fitting manner with the propellant charge sleeve 2 and causes an axial and radial centering of the sack-shaped container 14 and the propellant charge powder 13 therein.
  • Figure 3 It has at its bottom end portion 15 an opening 22 by means of which the container 14 is pushed onto the projection 11 of the sleeve bottom 9 and then secured to the spring plate 10.
  • the projectile-side end region 16 of the sack-shaped container 14 is separated axially, so that two separate flag-shaped regions 23, 24 result.
  • These flag-shaped regions 23, 24 are each passed through a slot-shaped recess 25 of the laboratory 17, which are arranged between the hemispherical bulge 18 and the flat edge portion 19 and each having an approximately sickle-shaped shape ( Figure 4 ).
  • the two flag-shaped portions 23, 24 are knotted together (in Fig.1 indicated as a pointed area 26). But it can also be provided that the flag-shaped regions 23, 24 are glued to the front of the laboratory 17.
  • the resulting space in the bag-shaped container 14 for the propellant charge powder 13 is essentially dependent on the diameter of the spring plate used 10, the size of the slot-shaped recesses 25 in the Laborierefficiency 17, the fixed axial position of the Laborierefficiency 17 within the propellant charge shell 2 and the shape of the Laborierefficiency 17 and therefore, according to the amount of propellant to be labored, can be varied within wide limits.
  • Fig. 5 shows the sleeve cover 7 (also sleeve cap) in a perspective view.
  • the sleeve cover 7 has sharp-edged predetermined breaking points 7.1 and a circumferential neck 7.2, on which the cage 6 engages.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above.
  • the Laborierindustrial also have only a disc-shaped shape or, for example, have a parabolic shaped bulge.
  • the attachment of the Laborier infrastructure in the area between sleeve casing and sleeve cover can be done by different, familiar to the expert form and / or frictional connection.
