Description

Le domaine technique de l'invention est celui des dispositifs de protection balistique déportée protégeant des portes, en particulier de véhicules militaires.The technical field of the invention is that of remote ballistic protection devices protecting doors, in particular military vehicles.

Pour protéger les véhicules militaires des projectiles et engins explosifs produisant des agressions par charge creuse ou charge formée, il est mis en place des protections balistiques placées à distance des parois externes du véhicule. Ces protections souvent désignées par la dénomination anglo-saxonne de "slat" consistent en un grillage, des barres parallèles, ou de simples persiennes voire des filets placés entre 200 et 400 mm sur le pourtour du véhicule et éventuellement sur le dessus. Cette protection a pour but de perturber le déclenchement des projectiles avant qu'ils n'atteignent le véhicule.To protect military vehicles from projectiles and explosive devices producing attacks by hollow charge or formed charge, it is put in place ballistic protections placed at a distance from the outer walls of the vehicle. These protections often designated by the English name of "slat" consist of a grid, parallel bars, or single louvers or nets placed between 200 and 400 mm around the vehicle and possibly on the top. This protection is intended to disrupt the firing of projectiles before they reach the vehicle.

Ces protections sont également placées devant les portes et trappes d'accès au véhicule. Au niveau d'une porte, il est évident que la protection ne doit pas gêner l'ouverture et la fermeture de la porte pour laisser le personnel embarquer ou débarquer du véhicule, mais surtout la protection au niveau de la porte doit aussi pouvoir être mise en place ou retirée par l'équipage, sans l'intervention d'une personne disposée hors du véhicule, afin de pouvoir embarquer ou débarquer de manière autonome.These protections are also placed in front of the doors and hatches for access to the vehicle. At a door, it is obvious that the protection must not interfere with the opening and closing of the door to let staff embark or disembark the vehicle, but especially the protection at the door must also be able to be put in place or removed by the crew, without the intervention of a person placed outside the vehicle, in order to be able to board or disembark independently.

Pour cela, il est connu de fixer un panneau de protection balistique déportée qui est fixé à la porte du véhicule afin que la protection suive tous les mouvements de la porte. Cette solution présente comme inconvénient majeur de nécessiter une zone non protégée autour de la porte pour permettre les mouvements d'ouverture et fermeture de cette dernière. En d'autres termes cette solution occasionne une absence de la protection à proximité de la charnière de la porte, cela afin de pouvoir faire pivoter la porte sans que la protection portée par la porte n'interfère avec les éléments de protection fixes par rapport au véhicule et placés à proximité.For this, it is known to fix a remote ballistic protection panel which is fixed to the vehicle door so that the protection follows all the movements of the door. This solution has the major disadvantage of requiring an unprotected area around the door to allow the opening and closing movements of the latter. In other words this solution causes an absence of the protection near the hinge of the door, that in order to be able to rotate the door without the protection carried by the door interferes with the fixed protection elements relative to the vehicle and placed nearby.

Le brevet EP1944566 décrit un dispositif de protection déportée entourant un véhicule. Ce dispositif comporte, à la jonction de chaque panneau, des charnières permettant un repli des panneaux de protection les uns sur les autres à la manière des soufflets d'un accordéon. Cette façon de replier les panneaux permet d'avoir accès aux portes latérales du véhicule depuis l'extérieur de celui ci.The patent EP1944566 describes a remote protective device surrounding a vehicle. This device comprises, at the junction of each panel, hinges allowing a folding the protective panels over each other in the manner of the bellows of an accordion. This way of folding the panels allows access to the side doors of the vehicle from outside the latter.

On voit que cette solution n'est pas totalement satisfaisante car, depuis l'intérieur du véhicule, l'équipage ne peut pas ouvrir ou fermer le panneau qui est placé en regard de la porte.We see that this solution is not completely satisfactory because, from inside the vehicle, the crew can not open or close the panel which is placed next to the door.

On connaît également un véhicule (le Warthog) qui qui représente l'état de la technique le plus proche. Ledit véhicule est doté d'une protection couvrant les portes avant et comportant un panneau articulé sur des charnières et entraîné par une bielle reliée à la porte. Dans ce dispositif le panneau de protection n'est pas solidaire de la porte elle même et le niveau de protection assurée n'est pas suffisant.Also known is a vehicle (the Warthog) which represents the state of the art closest. The vehicle is provided with a protection covering the front doors and having a panel articulated on hinges and driven by a connecting rod connected to the door. In this device the protective panel is not secured to the door itself and the level of protection provided is not sufficient.

Pour remédier au problème de la couverture balistique complète de la porte, ainsi qu'à celui de l'ouverture de la protection depuis l'intérieur du véhicule, l'invention se propose d'assurer la protection de tout ou partie de la porte par un panneau mobile monté sur charnières et associé à un panneau fixe solidaire de la porte. Les mouvements de la porte étant communiqués au panneau mobile par une bielle.To remedy the problem of the complete ballistic cover of the door, as well as that of the opening of the protection from inside the vehicle, the invention proposes to ensure the protection of all or part of the door by a movable panel mounted on hinges and associated with a fixed panel integral with the door. The movements of the door being communicated to the mobile panel by a connecting rod.

Cette bielle est disposée de façon à garantir un écart satisfaisant pour éviter les interférences entre porte et panneau tout en préservant les degrés de liberté de la porte et du panneau.This rod is arranged to ensure a satisfactory gap to avoid interference between door and panel while preserving the degrees of freedom of the door and panel.

L'invention à pour objet un dispositif de protection déportée destiné à couvrir complètement une porte et comportant au moins un panneau mobile articulé par des charnières étant destiné à avoir un axe de rotation parallèle à un axe de rotation de la porte, dispositif caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte au moins une bielle destinée à relier la porte au panneau mobile, bielle reliée à la porte par un premier pivot et reliée au panneau mobile par un second pivot, la projection orthogonale de l'axe du second pivot sur le plan de la porte étant destinée à être située entre le premier pivot et la projection orthogonale sur le plan de la porte de l'axe des charnières du panneau mobile, le panneau mobile étant par ailleurs destiné à être placé en regard de l'axe de rotation de la porte, dispositif comportant un panneau de protection déportée fixe qui est destiné à être solidaire de la porte, panneau fixe dont un premier bord latéral est destiné à s'étendre au-delà d'un rebord externe de la porte parallèle à l'axe de rotation de celle ci, et dont un deuxième bord latéral est jointif avec le panneau mobile quand la porte est fermée.The subject of the invention is a remote protective device intended to completely cover a door and comprising at least one movable panel articulated by hinges being intended to have an axis of rotation parallel to an axis of rotation of the door, a device characterized in that it comprises at least one connecting rod intended to connect the door to the movable panel, connecting rod connected to the door by a first pivot and connected to the movable panel by a second pivot, the orthogonal projection of the axis of the second pivot on the plane of the door being intended to be located between the first pivot and the orthogonal projection on the plane of the door of the axis of the hinges of the panel mobile, the movable panel being also intended to be placed facing the axis of rotation of the door, the device comprising a fixed remote protective panel which is intended to be secured to the door, fixed panel of which a first lateral edge is intended to extend beyond an outer edge of the door parallel to the axis of rotation thereof, and a second side edge is joined with the movable panel when the door is closed.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, la distance entre le premier pivot et l'axe de rotation de la porte est sensiblement égale à la distance entre le second pivot et l'axe de rotation des charnières du panneau mobile.According to one characteristic of the invention, the distance between the first pivot and the axis of rotation of the door is substantially equal to the distance between the second pivot and the axis of rotation of the hinges of the movable panel.

Avantageusement le panneau qui est placé en regard d'un moyen de déverrouillage de la porte comporte une trappe d'accès à ce moyen de déverrouillage.Advantageously, the panel which is placed opposite a means of unlocking the door comprises an access hatch to this unlocking means.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, la distance entre l'axe de rotation de la porte et la projection orthogonale dans le plan de la porte de l'axe de rotation des charnières du panneau mobile est supérieure à la distance séparant le panneau mobile de la porte.According to one characteristic of the invention, the distance between the axis of rotation of the door and the orthogonal projection in the plane of the door of the axis of rotation of the hinges of the movable panel is greater than the distance separating the movable panel from the the door.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description suivante faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente une vue partielle de trois quarts par le dessus d'un véhicule blindé portes fermées qui est équipé d'un dispositif de protection selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention,
  • la figure 2 représente une vue latérale de la droite d'un véhicule blindé équipé de ce premier mode de réalisation du dispositif de protection,

  • la figure 5 représente une vue partielle de dessus d'un véhicule blindé avec une porte fermée et équipée d'un dispositif de protection selon le premier mode de réalisation de l'invention.
The invention will be better understood on reading the following description given with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • the figure 1 represents a partial three-quarter view from above of a closed-door armored vehicle which is equipped with a protection device according to a first embodiment of the invention,
  • the figure 2 represents a side view of the right side of a armored vehicle equipped with this first embodiment of the protection device,
  • the figure 3 represents a partial top view of a shielded vehicle with a door partially open and equipped with the protection device according to the first embodiment of the invention,
  • the figure 4 represents a partial view from above of a shielded vehicle with a door fully open and equipped with the protection device according to the first embodiment of the invention, and
  • the figure 5 represents a partial top view of a shielded vehicle with a closed door and equipped with a protection device according to the first embodiment of the invention.

Selon la figure 1, un véhicule blindé 100 comporte un dispositif de protection déportée 1. Ce dispositif comporte des panneaux 80 à claire-voie placés sur le coté du véhicule et qui couvrent sensiblement tout le pourtour du véhicule.According to figure 1 , a shielded vehicle 100 includes a remote protective device 1. This device comprises panels 80 louvre placed on the side of the vehicle and which cover substantially all around the vehicle.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention qui est représenté aux figures 1 à 5, le véhicule 100 comporte au niveau d'une porte 3 un panneau fixe 8 qui est solidaire de la porte 3 par des bras 4 (voir aussi les figures 3, 4 et 5).According to one embodiment of the invention which is represented in Figures 1 to 5 , the vehicle 100 comprises at a door 3 a fixed panel 8 which is secured to the door 3 by arms 4 (see also the figures 3 , 4 and 5 ).

Dans le prolongement du panneau fixe 8 se trouve un panneau mobile 2. Panneau fixe 8 et panneau mobile 2 sont jointifs au niveau d'un de leurs cotés (deuxième bord latéral 8b du panneau fixe 8) mais ne sont pas solidaires. Le panneau mobile 2 est relié au reste de la protection déportée par des charnières 5 qui lui permettent de pivoter autour d'un axe vertical 5a. Cet axe vertical 5a est parallèle à l'axe de rotation 5b de la porte 3. Une bielle 10 relie la porte 3 au panneau mobile 2. La bielle 10 est solidaire de la porte 3 par un premier pivot 10a. Elle est solidaire du panneau mobile 2 par un second pivot 10b.In the extension of the fixed panel 8 is a movable panel 2. Fixed panel 8 and movable panel 2 are joined at one of their sides (second side edge 8b of the fixed panel 8) but are not integral. The movable panel 2 is connected to the rest of the remote protection by hinges 5 which allow it to pivot about a vertical axis 5a. This vertical axis 5a is parallel to the axis of rotation 5b of the door 3. A connecting rod 10 connects the door 3 to the movable panel 2. The rod 10 is secured to the door 3 by a first pivot 10a. It is secured to the movable panel 2 by a second pivot 10b.

On notera sur la figure 5 que la projection orthogonale 10b' de l'axe du second pivot 10b sur le plan de la porte 3 se situe entre le premier pivot 10a et la projection orthogonale 5a' sur le plan de la porte 3 de l'axe de rotation 5a des charnières du panneau mobile 2 . On notera également que l'axe de rotation 5b de la porte 3 se situe en regard du panneau mobile 2, ce qui signifie que la projection orthogonale 5b' de cet axe 5b sur le plan du panneau mobile 2 se trouve effectivement dans le panneau mobile 2.We will note on the figure 5 that the orthogonal projection 10b 'of the axis of the second pivot 10b on the plane of the door 3 is situated between the first pivot 10a and the orthogonal projection 5a' on the plane of the door 3 of the axis of rotation 5a of the hinges of the mobile panel 2. Note also that the axis of rotation 5b of the door 3 is opposite the movable panel 2, which means that the orthogonal projection 5b 'of this axis 5b on the plane of the movable panel 2 is actually in the mobile panel 2.

Ces conditions sont nécessaires à l'ouverture sans interférences de la porte 3 et du panneau mobile 2. Toujours afin de ne pas causer d'interférences, le rebord externe 3a de la porte 3, qui est parallèle à l'axe de rotation 5b de la porte, se trouve en regard du panneau fixe 8 solidaire de la porte 3. Le premier bord latéral 8a du panneau fixe 8 s'étend donc latéralement au-delà du rebord externe 3a de la porte.These conditions are necessary for the opening without interference of the door 3 and the movable panel 2. Always in order not to cause interference, the outer edge 3a of the door 3, which is parallel to the axis of rotation 5b of the door is next to the fixed panel 8 integral with the door 3. The first side edge 8a of the fixed panel 8 thus extends laterally beyond the outer rim 3a of the door.

Ainsi la porte 3 n'interfère pas avec un panneau voisin 80, fixe par rapport au véhicule, lors de l'ouverture de la porte 3 portant le panneau fixe 8.Thus the door 3 does not interfere with a neighboring panel 80, fixed with respect to the vehicle, when the door 3 carrying the fixed panel 8 is opened.

Ces caractéristiques permettent ainsi aux personnels embarqués de pouvoir fermer ou ouvrir simultanément la porte 3 et les panneaux de protection fixe 8 et mobile 2 depuis l'intérieur du véhicule tout en bénéficiant d'une protection totale de la porte 3 une fois celle ci refermée.These characteristics thus enable the on-board personnel to be able to close or simultaneously open the door 3 and the fixed 8 and mobile 2 protective panels from inside the vehicle while benefiting from total protection of the door 3 once it is closed.

Selon la figure 2 le panneau fixe 8 comporte une trappe 11 montée sur des charnières et située en regard d'un moyen de déverrouillage 12 de la porte 3 qui comporte une poignée 13. Cette trappe permet l'accès au moyen de déverrouillage 12 et notamment à la poignée 13 de la porte 3 à partir de l'extérieur du véhicule et sans aide des personnels situés dans le véhicule.According to figure 2 the fixed panel 8 comprises a hatch 11 mounted on hinges and located opposite an unlocking means 12 of the door 3 which comprises a handle 13. This door allows access to the unlocking means 12 and in particular to the handle 13 door 3 from the outside of the vehicle and without help from the personnel in the vehicle.

La figure 3 montre la porte 3 entrouverte. On a représenté sur cette figure un quadrilatère P ayant pour sommets les pivots 10a et 10b et les extrémités des axes de pivotement 5a et 5b. Ce quadrilatère est un parallélogramme P déformable. Ainsi la distance D1 entre les pivots 10a et 10b est sensiblement égale à la distance D2 entre les axes de pivotement 5a et 5b. Par ailleurs, le dispositif de protection 8 étant parallèle à la porte 3, la distance D3 entre l'axe de pivotement 5b de la porte 3 et le premier pivot 10a est également sensiblement égale à la distance D4 entre le second pivot 10b et l'axe de rotation 5a des charnières de panneau mobile 2.The figure 3 shows the door 3 ajar. There is shown in this figure a quadrilateral P having vertices the pivots 10a and 10b and the ends of the pivot axes 5a and 5b. This quadrilateral is a deformable parallelogram P. Thus the distance D1 between the pivots 10a and 10b is substantially equal to the distance D2 between the pivot axes 5a and 5b. Moreover, the protection device 8 being parallel to the door 3, the distance D3 between the pivot axis 5b of the door 3 and the first pivot 10a is also substantially equal to the distance D4 between the second pivot 10b and the rotation axis 5a of the movable panel hinges 2.

Ces caractéristiques permettent le maintien du parallélisme entre la porte 3 et le panneau mobile 2 pour tous les angles d'ouverture de la porte 3.These characteristics make it possible to maintain the parallelism between the door 3 and the movable panel 2 for all the opening angles of the door 3.

La figure 4 montre la porte 3 complètement ouverte. On remarque que, pour que l'ouverture de la porte 3 soit possible sans interférence, il faut que, dans cette position ouverte, le panneau fixe 8 se positionne entre la porte 3 et le panneau pivotant 2. Ceci est possible si la distance D5 entre l'axe de pivotement 5b de la porte 3 et le plan du panneau pivotant 2 dans cette position ouverte est supérieure à la distance D6 entre le dispositif de protection et les parois du véhicule. Cette distance D5 est également repérée sur le schéma de la figure 5 où on voit le dispositif porte fermée. Elle est alors par construction la distance entre l'axe de pivotement 5b de la porte 3 et la projection orthogonale 5a' sur le plan de la porte 3 fermée de l'axe de pivotement 5a des charnières du panneau mobile 2.The figure 4 shows the door 3 completely open. Note that, in order for the opening of the door 3 to be possible without interference, it is necessary that, in this open position, the fixed panel 8 be positioned between the door 3 and the pivoting panel 2. This is possible if the distance D5 between the pivot axis 5b of the door 3 and the plane of the pivoting panel 2 in this open position is greater than the distance D6 between the protection device and the walls of the vehicle. . This distance D5 is also marked on the diagram of the figure 5 where we see the closed door device. It is then by construction the distance between the pivot axis 5b of the door 3 and the orthogonal projection 5a 'on the plane of the closed door 3 of the pivot axis 5a of the hinges of the movable panel 2.
