Description
La présente invention concerne un système de lancement d'une arme à partir d'un engin sous-marin.The present invention relates to a system for launching a weapon from an underwater vehicle.
Plus particulièrement l'invention concerne un système de ce type qui comporte un tube destiné à recevoir l'arme et qui est muni à une extrémité d'une porte équipée d'un vérin à double action d'éjection de l'arme.More particularly, the invention relates to a system of this type which comprises a tube intended to receive the weapon and which is provided at one end with a door equipped with a cylinder with double action of ejection of the weapon.
De tels systèmes sont par exemple utilisés dans des sous-marins pour lancer une torpille, ces systèmes étant alors appelés de façon générale « tube lance-torpille ».Such systems are for example used in submarines to launch a torpedo, these systems then being generally called "torpedo tube".
Cependant d'autres applications par exemple à des drones peuvent être envisagées de même que des armes différentes telles que par exemple des missiles ou autres.However other applications for example drones can be envisaged as well as different weapons such as for example missiles or others.
De façon générale, le vérin à double action équipant la porte du tube comporte un corps de vérin dans lequel sont disposés des pistons déployables et escamotables de façon télescopique les uns par rapport aux autres, ce vérin étant raccordé à des moyens formant source de fluide sous pression à travers des moyens de commande pour injecter du fluide sous pression dans le corps de vérin à l'arrière des pistons pour déployer ceux-ci.In general, the double-acting cylinder fitted to the tube door comprises a cylinder body in which deployable pistons are telescopically retractable relative to each other, this cylinder being connected to means forming a source of fluid under pressure through control means for injecting fluid under pressure into the cylinder body at the rear of the pistons to deploy the same.
Un exemple de système de lancement, conforme au préambule de la revendication 1, est décrit dans
Les systèmes de l'état de la technique utilisent tous des vérins hydrauliques.The systems of the state of the art all use hydraulic cylinders.
Cependant on sait que ces vérins hydrauliques ont une vitesse de déploiement faible ce qui pose un certain nombre de problèmes pour certaines applications envisagées.However it is known that these hydraulic cylinders have a low deployment speed which poses a number of problems for some applications envisaged.
Le but de l'invention est donc de résoudre ces problèmes.The object of the invention is therefore to solve these problems.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un système de lancement selon la revendication 1.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a launching system according to
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation, l'invention peut comprendre l'une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, prise(s) isolément ou selon toutes les combinaisons techniquement possibles :
- la source de gaz sous pression comporte des moyens formant bouteille de gaz sous pression ;
- la source de liquide sous pression comporte des moyens formant accumulateur hydropneumatique ;
- lors du déploiement du vérin, les orifices du corps de vérin et des pistons sont adaptés pour freiner les déplacements.de ceux-ci par laminage du fluide contenu entre le corps et le piston externe et entre les pistons eux-mêmes, éjecté lors du déploiement des pistons ; et
- le gaz sous pression est de l'air et en ce que le liquide sous pression est de l'eau.
- the pressurized gas source comprises pressurized gas bottle means;
- the source of pressurized liquid comprises means forming a hydropneumatic accumulator;
- during the deployment of the cylinder, the orifices of the cylinder body and pistons are adapted to slow the displacement thereof by rolling the fluid contained between the body and the outer piston and between the pistons themselves, ejected during the deployment of the pistons; and
- the pressurized gas is air and the pressurized liquid is water.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description qui va suivre donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en se référant aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels :
- la
figure 1 représente un schéma synoptique illustrant un système de lancement d'une arme selon l'invention, - la
figure 2 représente un vérin à double action entrant dans la constitution d'un tel système et - les
figures 3 et 4 illustrent respectivement le déploiement et l'escamotage des pistons d'un tel vérin.
- the
figure 1 represents a block diagram illustrating a launching system of a weapon according to the invention, - the
figure 2 represents a double-acting cylinder used in the constitution of such a system and - the
Figures 3 and 4 respectively illustrate the deployment and retraction of the pistons of such a cylinder.
On a en effet illustré sur ces figures et notamment sur la
En fait ce système comporte un tube désigné par la référence générale 2, destiné à recevoir l'arme, cette arme étant constituée par exemple par une tortille ou autre.In fact, this system comprises a tube designated by the
Ce tube est muni à une extrémité d'une porte désignée par la référence générale 3, cette porte étant équipée d'un vérin à double action d'éjection de l'arme. Ce vérin à double action est illustré de façon plus détaillée sur la
Sur cette
Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré, cinq pistons déployables et escamotables de façon télescopique les uns par rapport aux autres sont représentés et sont désignés par les références 6, 7, 8, 9, et 10 respectivement.In the exemplary embodiment illustrated, five pistons deployable and retractable telescopically relative to each other are shown and are designated by
Le piston interne désigné par la référence générale 10 comporte également à son extrémité libre, un plateau d'appui sur l'arme, désigné par la référence générale 11.The internal piston designated by the
Les extrémités avant du corps 5 et des pistons à l'exception du piston interne 10 comportent également des orifices tels que par exemple l'orifice désigné par la référence générale 12, pour le corps de vérin 5, et 13, pour le premier piston externe 6, dont la fonction sera décrite plus en détail par la suite.The front ends of the
Ce vérin est donc associé à la porte 3 du tube et est raccordé à des moyens formant source de fluide sous pression à travers des moyens de commande comme cela est illustré sur la
En fait et comme cela est illustré sur cette
Selon l'invention, ce système de lancement comporte deux sources de fluide sous pression différents, dont une source de gaz sous pression désignée par la référence générale 16 et une source de liquide sous pression désignée par la référence générale 17.According to the invention, this launch system comprises two different sources of fluid under pressure, including a source of pressurized gas designated by the
La source de gaz sous pression est adaptée pour assurer le déploiement des pistons tandis que la source de liquide sous pression est adaptée pour assurer l'escamotage de ceux-ci.The source of gas under pressure is adapted to ensure the deployment of the pistons while the source of pressurized liquid is adapted to ensure the retraction thereof.
En fait et comme cela est schématisé sur la
Le gaz sous pression peut en effet être de l'air tandis que le liquide sous pression peut être de l'eau.The gas under pressure may indeed be air while the pressurized liquid may be water.
Bien entendu d'autres modes de réalisation encore peuvent être envisagés.Of course other embodiments can be envisaged.
Ainsi et comme cela est illustré sur les
Dès que de l'air sous pression est injecté dans le corps de vérin 5, celui-ci provoque le déplacement des pistons successivement vers l'avant, le piston externe 6 se déplaçant vers l'avant en provoquant une éjection du liquide contenu dans la chambre définie entre celui-ci et le corps de vérin 5 à travers les orifices 12, ce qui permet de contrôler la vitesse de déplacement de ce vérin, par laminage du fluide lors de son éjection à travers ces orifices.As soon as pressurized air is injected into the
Ce contrôle est également assuré par les orifices par exemple 13 prévus à l'avant de l'extrémité du piston 6 lorsque le piston successif 7 se déplace vers l'avant et ainsi de suite.This control is also provided by the
Lors de l'escamotage des différents pistons, du liquide sous pression tel que par exemple de l'eau est injecté à travers les orifices 12 du corps de vérin 5.During the retraction of the various pistons, pressurized liquid such as for example water is injected through the
Ceci provoque alors un recul du piston 6 vers sa position escamotée jusqu'à une position dans laquelle les orifices 13 de ce piston 6 arrivent en communication avec la chambre définie entre ce piston et le corps de vérin et donc avec les orifices 12 du corps de vérin 5, ce qui permet d'injecter du liquide sous pression dans la chambre suivante prévue entre les pistons successifs de ce vérin jusqu'au dernier c'est-à-dire jusqu'au piston interne 10, afin d'escamoter complètement ceux-ci à l'intérieur du corps de vérin et les uns dans les autres.This then causes the
On conçoit alors que ces orifices sont d'une part destinés à permettre le reploiement successif des pistons les uns dans les autres et dans le corps de vérin lors de leur escamotage et permettent également de freiner les déplacements de ceux-ci par laminage de ce fluide lors du déploiement des vérins, le fluide étant alors éjecté à travers ces orifices.It is then conceivable that these orifices are on the one hand intended to allow the successive folding of the pistons into each other and into the cylinder body during their retraction and also to slow the displacement thereof by rolling of this fluid during the deployment of the cylinders, the fluid is then ejected through these orifices.
Une telle structure permet d'obtenir un système extrêmement compact permettant d'assurer le remplissage en eau des chambres délimitées entre le corps de vérin et le piston externe et entre les pistons eux-mêmes.Such a structure makes it possible to obtain an extremely compact system making it possible to fill the chambers delimited between the cylinder body and the external piston and between the pistons themselves with water.
Cette structure à chambres et orifices permet également d'amortir le déplacement des pistons tout en permettant d'obtenir une vitesse de déploiement optimale quel que soit le type d'arme à éjecter.This structure with chambers and orifices also makes it possible to damp the movement of the pistons while allowing to obtain an optimal deployment speed whatever the type of weapon to be ejected.
Il va de soi bien entendu que différents modes de réalisation encore peuvent être envisagés.It goes without saying of course that different embodiments can be envisaged.
