Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Fahrzeug gemäß Anspruch 1 mit einer äußeren Fahrzeugstruktur an der Verbundpanzerungselemente, insbesondere Verbundpanzerplatten, zum Schutz vor Geschossen angeordnet sind, wobei jedes Verbundpanzerungselement mindestens eine Lage aus parallel zueinander in Reihen angeordneten hochharten keramischen Grundelementen (GE) mit zylindrischem Grundkörper enthält.The invention relates to a vehicle according to
Verbundpanzerungselemente zum Schutz gegen Geschosse, wie beispielsweise Verbundpanzerplatten oder flexible Verbundpanzerungsmatten, die aus einem Verbund mehrerer Materialien bestehen, sind an sich bekannt. Häufig sind Verbundpanzerplatten derart aufgebaut, dass zwischen zwei insbesondere ebenen und parallelen Plattenelementen hochharte Füllelemente als Wirkkörper eingebracht werden, welche anschließend mit einer gießfähigen Masse umgossen werden.Composite armor elements for protection against projectiles, such as composite armor plates or flexible composite armor mats, which consist of a composite of several materials, are known per se.

Zur Erläuterung dieser Schwachstellen dient
Weiterhin kann es bei einander gegenüberliegenden Randbereichen vorkommen, dass der Abstand der Ränder nicht im Nennmaß des Rasters der von den hochharten Elementen aufgebauten Matrixstruktur liegt. Wenn der sich ergebende offene Randbereich kleiner als der Durchmesser der zylindrischen Grundelemente ist, kann er mit diesen Körpern nicht mehr gefüllt werden und es ergeben sich wiederum ballistische Schwachstellen. Aber selbst dann, wenn der Abstand der einander gegenüberliegenden Randlinien im Nennmaß des Rasters liegt, kann sich aufgrund von Fertigungstoleranzen der einzelnen Grundkörper der Fall ergeben, dass trotzdem ein Randbereich entsteht, der nicht mehr mit diesen Körpern gefüllt werden kann.Furthermore, it may happen with opposite edge regions, that the distance of the edges is not in the nominal size of the grid of the constructed of the high-hardness elements matrix structure. If the resulting open edge area is smaller than the diameter of the cylindrical base elements, it can not be filled with these bodies and in turn result in ballistic weaknesses. But even if the distance between the opposing edge lines in the nominal size of the grid is due to manufacturing tolerances of the individual base body may be the case that nevertheless creates an edge region that can not be filled with these bodies.
Wenn die Verbundpanzerplatte an Eckbereichen oder Knickkanten der äußeren Fahrzeugstruktur montiert ist, können schräge Ränder oder Fasen benötigt werden, so dass sich im Inneren zum Rand hin ebenfalls zusätzliche Schwachbereiche mit extrem komplizierten Geometrien ergeben können. Bislang wurden hierbei Verbundpanzerungsplatten eingesetzt, deren Randflächen senkrecht zur Plattennormalen standen, so dass sich eine größere winklige Lücke im Bereich des Plattenstoßes ergibt.If the composite armor plate is mounted at corners or creases of the outer structure of the vehicle, sloping edges or chamfers may be required, so that inside the edge also additional weak areas with extremely complicated geometries may result. So far, composite armor plates have been used whose edge surfaces were perpendicular to the plate normal, so that there is a larger angular gap in the area of the plate joint.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einem Fahrzeug mit der eingangs erwähnten äußeren Fahrzeugstruktur auch im Bereich der Knickkanten der Fahrzeugstruktur eine ausreichende ballistische Sicherheit zu erreichen.The invention is based on the object to achieve sufficient ballistic safety in a vehicle with the above-mentioned outer vehicle structure in the region of the creases of the vehicle structure.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüche beschrieben.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of
Bei den Verbundpanzerungselementen, die an der äußeren Fahrzeugstruktur angeordnet sind, sind erste Zusatzelemente bereitgestellt, welche aus den Elementen mit zylindrischem Grundkörper dadurch entstehen, dass längs oder in der Symmetrieachse des Zylinders oder auch schräg zu dieser Achse ein Stück abgeschnitten ist. Als abgeschnittenes Zusatzelement wird hierbei jedes Zusatzelement mit einer abgeschnittene Geometrie verstanden, wobei die abgeschnittene Geometrie bei der Herstellung der Zusatzelemente nicht zwangsläufig durch "Schneiden" erreicht werden muss, d.h. die Zusatzelement können auch direkt in einer abgeschnittenen Form hergestellt werden. Die zylindrischen Grundkörper können insbesondere eine kreiszylindrische Grundform aufweisen.In the composite armor elements, which are arranged on the outer vehicle structure, first additional elements are provided, which arise from the elements with a cylindrical base body in that along or in the axis of symmetry of the cylinder or obliquely to this axis Piece is cut off. As a truncated additional element in this case each additional element is understood with a truncated geometry, the cut geometry in the production of the additional elements does not necessarily have to be achieved by "cutting", ie the additional element can also be made directly in a truncated form. The cylindrical base body may in particular have a circular cylindrical basic shape.
Diese abgeschnittenen Zusatzelemente können an einer Seite ebene Flächenabschnitte aufweisen. Sie sind in einer an den äußeren und/oder inneren Rand angrenzenden Abschlussreihe oder in Lücken zwischen den Elementen mit zylindrischem Grundkörper angeordnet.These cut-off additional elements may have flat surface sections on one side. They are arranged in a terminal row adjacent to the outer and / or inner edge or in gaps between the elements with a cylindrical base body.
Äußere Randbereiche im Sinne der Erfindung sind hier beispielsweise die Außenränder einer Verbundpanzerplatte, während innere Randbereiche aufgrund von Durchbrüchen oder Ausnehmungen in der Verbundpanzerplatte entstehen. Dies wird weiter unten anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Mit diesen Zusatzelementen lassen sich flächige Übergänge in den Randbereichen realisieren.Outer edge regions in the sense of the invention are here, for example, the outer edges of a composite armor plate, while inner edge regions arise due to openings or recesses in the composite armor plate. This will be explained in more detail below with reference to an embodiment. With these additional elements can be realized surface transitions in the edge areas.
Es ist weiterhin vorgesehen, in den Bereichen, in denen sich aufgrund der Rasterung oder der Fertigungstoleranzen weiterhin Lücken ergeben, zweite Zusatzelemente einzufügen, die eine vieleckige Geometrie besitzen und beispielsweise quaderförmig oder streifenförmig ausgebildet sein können oder auch einen trapezförmigen Querschnitt besitzen können.It is further provided in the areas in which due to the screening or the manufacturing tolerances continue to arise gaps to insert second additional elements that have a polygonal geometry and may be formed, for example cuboid or strip-shaped or may have a trapezoidal cross-section.
Bei der Fertigung können dies auch streifenförmige Elemente sein, die in verschiedenen Dicken vorrätig sind und mit denen alle aufgrund der Toleranzen auftretenden Lücken einfach geschlossen werden können.During production, these may also be strip-shaped elements which are available in various thicknesses and with which all gaps due to the tolerances can be easily closed.
Bei angeschrägten Plattenrändern können zweite Zusatzelemente mit trapezförmigem Querschnitt verwendet werden. In Eckbereichen können auch zweite Zusatzelemente eingesetzt werden, die als spezielle Vielecke konstruiert sind.With bevelled plate edges second additional elements can be used with trapezoidal cross-section. In corner areas also second additional elements can be used, which are constructed as special polygons.
Bei angeschrägten Plattenrändern können die Zusatzelemente der Abschlussreihe derart ausgestaltet sein, dass sie eine Schrägfläche aufweisen, die parallel zu der Schrägfläche des Plattenrandes verläuft. Dadurch können Hohlräume im Schrägbereich verringert werden. Ferner können die Platten an den schrägen Randflächen zusammenstoßen, ohne dass sich Schutzlücken zwischen den Elementen ergeben, die ggf. eine ballistische Schwachstelle darstellen.With beveled plate edges, the additional elements of the terminal row can be designed such that they have an inclined surface which is parallel to the inclined surface of the plate edge. As a result, cavities can be reduced in the oblique region. Furthermore, the plates can collide at the oblique edge surfaces, without resulting in gaps between the elements, which may represent a ballistic vulnerability.
Da die Ränder des Verbundpanzerungselements eine potenzielle Schwachstelle darstellen können, ist es bevorzugt, dass die Zusatzelemente im Randbereich größer sind als die Grundelemente im mittleren Bereich, insbesondere bei gleicher Höhe. Sie können somit eine höhere kinetische Energie eines Geschosses aufnehmen. Die Zusatzelemente einer Abschlussreihe können zudem ebene laterale Flächen aufweisen, so dass die Zusatzelemente flächig aneinander anliegen können.Since the edges of the composite armor element can represent a potential weak point, it is preferred that the additional elements in the edge region are larger than the basic elements in the middle region, in particular at the same height. They can thus absorb a higher kinetic energy of a projectile. The additional elements of a terminal row can also have flat lateral surfaces, so that the additional elements can lie flat against each other.
Die hochharten ersten und zweiten Zusatzelemente bestehen aus einem keramischen Werkstoff beispielsweise aus Aluminiumoxid, Borkarbid, Siliziumkarbid, Titantriborat etc. Es können auch Nano-Materialien, beispielsweise Nano-Keramiken, verwendet werden. Die Abschneidung kann beispielsweise bereits während der Herstellung der Zusatzelemente durch entsprechende Formgebung erfolgen oder nach der Herstellung der Zusatzelemente durch mechanische Nachbearbeitung.The high-hardness first and second additional elements are made of a ceramic material such as alumina, boron carbide, silicon carbide, titanium triborate, etc. It can also be nano-materials, such as nano-ceramics, are used. The cut can for example already during the production of additional elements by appropriate shaping done or after the production of additional elements by mechanical finishing.
Weiterhin ist es bei dem Verbundpanzerungselement vorteilhaft, dass, wenn die Elemente der Verbundpanzerplatte beispielsweise aus Aluminiumoxid bestehen, die ersten gegebenenfalls auch die zweiten Zusatzelemente aus noch härteren keramischen Werkstoffen beispielsweise Borkarbid, Siliziumkarbid, Titantriborat etc. oder einem höherwertigen Aluminiumoxid bestehen, um die entsprechenden Randbereiche noch weiter ballistisch zu verstärken.Furthermore, it is advantageous in the composite armor element that, if the elements of the composite armor plate, for example, consist of aluminum oxide, the first optionally also the second additional elements made of even harder ceramic materials such as boron carbide, silicon carbide, titanium triborate, etc., or a higher-grade alumina, to further ballistically reinforce the corresponding edge regions.
An der Rückseite einer Verbundpanzerplatte kann eine feste oder elastische Schicht angeordnet sein, die schockabsorbierende Eigenschaften hat. Es kann hier auch eine Schicht angeordnet sein, die aus einem Fasermaterial mit hoher Zugfestigkeit beispielsweise aus Aramid, Glasfaser, Polyamid, Kohlefaser etc. besteht.At the back of a composite armor plate may be disposed a solid or elastic layer having shock absorbing properties. It can also be arranged here a layer which consists of a fiber material with high tensile strength, for example, aramid, glass fiber, polyamide, carbon fiber, etc.
An den Außenrändern einer Verbundpanzerplatte können Randstreifen angeordnet sein, die Teil einer Kassette sein können, welche als Fertigungsform für die Verbundpanzerplatte dient. Dabei können die Randstreifen aus Fasermaterial oder aus Metall bestehen.On the outer edges of a composite armor plate edge strips may be arranged, which may be part of a cassette which serves as a manufacturing mold for the composite armor plate. The edge strips can be made of fiber material or metal.
Es sind vielfältige Ausgestaltungen hinsichtlich des Aufbaus des Verbundpanzerungselementes und der einzelnen Wirkkörper möglich. In der
Im Folgenden werden anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen Ausführungsbeispiele einer Verbundpanzerplatte nach der Erfindung und der in ihr angeordneten Elemente sowie einer Fahrzeugstruktur erläutert.In the following, embodiments of a composite armor plate according to the invention and the elements arranged therein and a vehicle structure will be explained with reference to the attached drawings.

Insbesondere in Eckbereichen von Verbundpanzerplatten können vieleckige zweite Zusatzelemente verwendet werden. Derartige Zusatzelemente sind in den
Die zweiten Zusatzelemente 4' und 4" sind ähnlich aufgebaut, wie das zweite Zusatzelement 4, besitzen aber keinen rechteckigen, sondern einen trapezförmigen Aufriss mit weiteren Schrägflächen 4.3' bzw. 4.3".The second
Das zweite Zusatzelement 5 mit rechteckigem Aufriss besitzt an einer Seite eine Schrägfläche 5.1. Die zweiten Zusatzelemente 5' und 5" sind ähnlich aufgebaut, wie das zweite Zusatzelement 5, besitzen aber jeweils einen trapezförmigen Aufriss.The second
Die Verbundpanzerplatte VP besitzt äußere Randbereiche R1 bis R5, wobei der Bereich R2 bis R3 eine Ausnehmung darstellt, sowie innere Randbereiche, die als Durchbrüche D1 und D2 beispielsweise für den Durchlass von Befestigungselementen ausgebildet sind. Wie aus der Zeichnung abzulesen, sind sowohl in den äußeren Randbereichen als auch in den inneren Randbereichen die zwischen den Grundelementen GE untereinander oder zum Plattenrand hin entstehenden Lücken durch erste Zusatzelemente 1, 1' und 1" ausgefüllt, wie sie oben beschrieben sind. In den Randbereichen R1 und R5 bilden die Zusatzelemente 1 und im Randbereich R2 die Zusatzelemente 1" eine Abschlussreihe, während in den Randbereichen R3 und R4 die Zusatzelemente 1' bzw. 1 in Lücken zwischen den Grundelementen GE eingesetzt sind.The composite armor plate VP has outer edge regions R1 to R5, wherein the region R2 to R3 represents a recess, and inner edge regions, which are formed as openings D1 and D2, for example, for the passage of fasteners. As can be seen from the drawing, both in the outer edge regions and in the inner edge regions, the gaps formed between the basic elements GE with each other or towards the plate edge are filled by first
Das Verbundpanzerungselement VP weist somit im Wesentlichen Grundelemente GE einer vorgegebenen Geometrie auf, wobei die Zusatzelemente 1, 1' und 1" bis auf den Wegschnitt die gleiche Geometrie aufweisen.The composite armor element VP thus essentially comprises basic elements GE of a predetermined geometry, the
In den Durchbrüchen D1 und D2 sind erste Zusatzelemente 1' ebenfalls in Lücken zwischen den Grundelementen GE angeordnet. Weiterhin sind zum Ausgleich von Toleranzen am Randbereich R5 quaderförmig ausgestaltete zweite Zusatzelemente 6 angeordnet, auf die eine Randleiste 7 aufgesetzt ist. Die Zusatzelemente 6 weisen eine ebene laterale Fläche 6.1 auf, so dass die Zusatzelemente 6 flächig aneinander anliegen können. Die Zusatzelemente 5 sind größer als die Grundelemente GE, wobei sie eine gleiche Höhe aufweisen, so dass sich einen einheitliche Plattendicke ergibt.In the openings D1 and D2 first additional elements 1 'are also arranged in gaps between the basic elements GE. Furthermore, to compensate for tolerances on the edge region R5 arranged cuboid second additional elements 6, on which a

Die Randschichten 8.1 und 8.2 können Teil einer Kassette sein. Die Stoßflächen 8.3 und 8.4 verlaufen hierbei parallel zueinander. Die Schrägflächen 5.1 der Zusatzelemente 5 verlaufen ebenfalls parallel zu den Stoßflächen 8.3 und 8.4.The marginal layers 8.1 and 8.2 may be part of a cassette. The abutment surfaces 8.3 and 8.4 are parallel to each other. The inclined surfaces 5.1 of the
Die Schnittwinkel der Schrägflächen 5.1 entsprechen der Hälfte des Winkels der Knickkante. Bei einem Aneinandersetzen der Verbundpanzerungselemente VP1 und VP2 addieren sich die Schnittwinkel der Schrägflächen 5.1 somit zu dem Winkel der Knickkante. In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel beträgt der Winkel der Knickkante etwa 30°. Die Winkel der Schnittflächen 5.1 (gemessen zur Normalen der Platte) beträgt jeweils etwa 15°. Es sind auch Ausführungen denkbar, bei denen die Winkel der Schnittflächen zweier Zusatzelemente in unterschiedlichen Platten nicht gleich sind. Es sollte aber die Addition der Winkel dem Winkel der Knickkante entsprechen. Ein sich daraus ergebender Versatz der Stoßkante des Plattenstoßes gegenüber der Knickkante der Fahrzeugstruktur ist hinnehmbar.The cutting angles of the inclined surfaces 5.1 correspond to half the angle of the bending edge. When the composite armor elements VP1 and VP2 are put together, the cutting angles of the inclined surfaces 5.1 are thus added to the angle of the bent edge. In the illustrated embodiment, the angle of the bending edge is about 30 °. The angles of the cut surfaces 5.1 (measured to the normal of the plate) is in each case about 15 °. There are also conceivable embodiments in which the angles of the cut surfaces of two additional elements in different plates are not equal. However, the addition of the angles should correspond to the angle of the bend edge. A resulting offset of the abutting edge of the panel joint with respect to the bending edge of the vehicle structure is acceptable.
Die Zusatzelemente 5 sind bei gleicher Höhe größer als die Grundelemente GE. Die Zusatzelemente 5 weisen eine ebene laterale Fläche auf, so dass die Zusatzelemente 5 flächig aneinander anliegen können. Die Zusatzelemente 5 weisen überdies auch in Richtung der Plattenmitte eine ebene Fläche 5.2 auf, so dass sich ein flächiges Anliegen an die Elemente 3 ergibt, die entsprechend ebenfalls eine ebene Fläche 3.2 aufweisen.The
