Definitions

  • the technical field of the invention is that of support devices for viewfinder of military vehicles.
  • the shooting accuracy is partly due to the viewfinder's ability to have a known and fixed position on the vehicle. This is particularly true with regard to simbleautage, for example.
  • EP2146176 A second drawback related to the device proposed by EP2146176 This is because elastomers generate hysteresis phenomena and have a high sensitivity to climatic elements. In addition elastomers have a limited life and an evolution of their characteristics over time.
  • shock absorber device for a viewfinder comprising a single damping ring made of a polymer material that can absorb shocks along the vertical axis.
  • the deflections in the plane perpendicular to the axis of suspension are limited by the annular contact of a column supporting the viewfinder with an O-ring insulation, at a lower part of the viewfinder.
  • the friction caused by the seal on the column generates hysteresis phenomena due to the adhesion and friction of the seal.
  • the constituent elastomer of the seal has a limited life.
  • the invention provides a viewfinder support device capable of providing a suspension that reduces sensitivity to hysteresis phenomena while strongly absorbing low frequency acceleration levels along the vertical axis and providing a relatively rigid connection between viewfinder and vehicle. in the horizontal plane.
  • the invention proposes a means that also makes it possible to increase the damping of the system in order to reduce the amplitudes of the assembly and the time to return to equilibrium between two stresses.
  • the subject of the invention is a support device for a military vehicle sight, comprising a head to which the viewfinder is fixed and a foot which is secured to the vehicle, the head being secured to a column having a vertical axis and which is introduced into the foot, the column being secured to the foot by means of springs, characterized in that the spring means are constituted in the form of tongues arranged along at least two planes parallel to each other and perpendicular to the vertical axis of the support, each plane comprising at least three tongues evenly spaced angularly around the column and secured thereto by a first end and secured to the foot by their second end, these spring means conferring a stiffness to the connection between the column and the foot which is less along the vertical axis than in the other directions orthogonal to this vertical axis.
  • the column may be stiffened by at least one rib integral with the column and the head.
  • the foot may be a tubular section of square section.
  • each of the parallel planes may comprise four spring tongues, the tongues being arranged along diagonals of the square tubular section.
  • each tongue may be flat and have a rectangular profile in section, with a substantially constant width and thickness along each tongue, the thickness, which is less than the width of the tongue, being oriented perpendicularly to the plane of the tongues. therefore parallel to the vertical axis.
  • the tabs disposed at at least one of the planes may have a non-planar profile and include at least one corrugation to increase their ability to deformation in tension and compression.
  • the tongues will be made of spring steel.
  • the device may also include means for damping oscillations of the column.
  • This oscillation damping means may comprise a telescopic damper.
  • a turret 100 of a military vehicle includes a viewfinder support 1 placed vertically close to a weapon 2. At the top of the support there is a viewfinder 3. This viewfinder is rotatable on three axes, roll (X axis), pitch (Y axis) and yaw (Z vertical axis).
  • the support 1 has two visible parts. A first tubular portion of substantially square section secured to the turret 100 by its lower part called foot support 4. A second cylindrical part called support head 5 secured to the viewfinder.
  • the lower part of the head 5 is spaced from the upper part of the foot 4 by a distance D (see figure 2 ).
  • the device 1 according to a first embodiment comprises a column 6 secured to the lower part of the head 5 of the support 1 and perpendicular to a surface called bottom 5a of the head 5.
  • This column 6 is coaxial with the vertical axis 7 through the support 1 and corresponds to the vertical axis 7 of yaw rotation of the viewfinder 3 (or axis Z on the figure 1 ).
  • the column 6 does not open at the lower end of the foot 4 and is even set back a distance R with respect to the lower end of the foot 4.
  • the column 6 is connected to the inside the support leg 4 by two groups of planar springs 10a to 10d and 11a to 11d.
  • a first group of planar springs 10a to 10d defines a first plane 12 perpendicular to the axis 7. This first plane 12 is placed in the vicinity of the upper edge of the support leg 4.
  • a second plane 13 perpendicular to the axis 7 is defined by the second group of planar springs 11a to 11d. This second plane 13 is placed in the vicinity of the lower end of column 6.
  • the figure 3 shows the device from below and in perspective. It can be seen that the column 6 comprises brackets 8 forming ribs integral with the column 6 and the bottom 5a of the support head 5. These brackets 8 stiffen the connection between the column 6 and the support head 5.
  • the springs 10a to 11d planes are evenly distributed angularly around the axis 7.
  • the springs 10a to 11d have a rectangular section.
  • Each spring is therefore a tongue having a substantially constant width and thickness along each tongue.
  • the thickness of each tongue is oriented in a direction parallel to the vertical axis 7 and is smaller than the width of the tongue. So the thickness of each tongue is oriented perpendicular to the plane 12 or 13 defined by the tabs considered (therefore parallel to the vertical axis Z or 7).
  • the stiffness of the spring is less in a direction of vertical deformation 7 while it is larger in the directions (X and Y) perpendicular to the vertical direction.
  • the spring tongues could be of square, round or elliptical section, but the smallest dimension of the section of the spring tongue should be parallel to the vertical axis.
  • Each of the planar springs 10a to 11d is secured to the column 6 by a first end and secured to the inside of the foot 4 of the support 1 by a second end.
  • planar springs 10a to 11d are biased in alternately alternating flexion.
  • the springs having rectilinear tab shapes can only very marginally deform in tension or compression. They thus block the degrees of freedom along these axes transverse to the vertical axis 7.
  • the absence of friction between the column 6 and the foot 4 also avoids hysteresis phenomena.
  • the support 1 has distances D and R (withdrawal) between the bottom of the head 5a and the top of the foot 4 as well as between the bottom of the column 6 and the bottom of the foot 4. These distances have a value greater than the amplitude provided oscillations of the support head 5 equipped with the viewfinder.
  • the springs will be selected from a spring steel, for example 33% nickel, 12% chromium, 1.2% manganese. Such a steel has a substantially temperature independent Young's modulus, and is significantly less sensitive to weather conditions than springs of polymeric or plastic materials.
  • the figure 4 shows another embodiment of the invention which differs from the preceding in that the springs 10a to 10d which are located at the upper plane 12 are not planar but are tabs having a particular profile having at least one corrugation T between both ends. Such undulation decreases the level of tensile and compressive stress in the tongue.
  • This embodiment makes it possible to optimize the dimensioning of the springs 10a to 10d disposed at the level of the upper plane 12 and in the directions perpendicular to the vertical axis 7.
  • the most important characteristic of the springs 10a to 11d will nevertheless be to have a stiffness with respect to the deformations along the vertical axis 7 which is less than those along all the axes perpendicular to this vertical axis 7 (or axis lace Z).
  • the device also allows by simple replacement of the tabs to adapt to the level of stress and the mass of the viewfinder.
  • These tongues can be changed individually with a suitable stiffness.
  • the substantially linear shape of a tongue is easy to produce and allows easy control of its stiffness characteristics.
  • a tongue forms a particularly light spring means.
  • a damping means of the oscillations of the column 6 is provided in the form of a telescopic damper 16 placed coaxially with the column 6.
  • This element has the role of damping the vertical oscillations along the axis Z.
  • a first end of the damping element 16 has a thread 17a screwed into a tapping 17b of the column 6.
  • the second end of the telescopic damper 16 comprises a rod 18 sliding in the body 19 of the shock absorber 16.
  • the end of the rod 18 is in contact with a bearing surface 20 of the vehicle (hood, roof, mounting surface).
  • a bearing surface 20 of the vehicle hood, roof, mounting surface.
  • the rod 18 is pressed against the vehicle and sinks into the body 19 of the damper 16.
  • the movements of the viewfinder 3 downwards are then damped. Since the rod 18 is not integral with the bearing surface 20, the column 6 is free to return to its initial position without suffering any friction within the telescopic damper 16, which could lead to harmful hysteresis phenomena. to the precision of the viewfinder.
  • the details concerning the damper 16 and its assembly on the device will be better seen at the figure 6 .
  • friction fins may be made integral with the column (fins in the form of pierced metal blades).
  • the set of fins is immersed in a viscous mixture which is contained in the body of the support which is sealingly closed by a lower lid and an upper lid.
  • the column then passes through the upper cover and the seal is provided at this level by one or more joints.
  • the viscous mixture may consist of oil.
  • the rolling of the viscous mixture by the fins improves the damping of the oscillations along the vertical axis Z.
  • the geometry of the fins may be more or less wide or have holes to increase the rolling in the viscous mixture contained in the body.
  • the fins bathed in the viscous mixture thus constitute another means of damping the oscillations of the column.
