Definitions

  • the invention relates to a catching and collecting device for ammunition sleeves and with the corresponding connecting elements of the safety gear to weapon stations, in particular to weapon stations with lafettierter weapon.
  • RWS Remote Weapon Station
  • RCWS Remote Controlled Weapon Station
  • the weapon stations are increasingly equipped with military weapons, which in turn are usually developed for manual use and as these are held by soldiers or operated directly. For adapting or Lafettieren on the weapon stations these are extended with special adapters and facilities and thus made remotely controllable.
  • These weapons eg machine guns (MG) or grenade machine guns (GMK or AGL) have specific ammunition feeders and sleeve / connector (belt link) ejector ports.
  • the weapon stations are usually equipped with ammunition containers, which receive the ammunition straps with the ammunition and often then have receptacle for receiving the empty sleeves / connector, if desired.
  • a sleeve and Gurtgliedauffangvorraum describes the DE 102 37 688 B4 , This is preferably provided for a mounted on a top mount machine gun, wherein a sleeve channel is screwed to the upper mount and the Gurtgliedkanal is held movable by a hinge. Held on the sleeve channel is a sleeve bag, which receives the sleeves and belt members.
  • Such devices can not or insufficiently bind to a weapon station for lafetable weapons in order to avoid that the pods etc. are lying around on the vehicle deck and e.g. Block vehicle hatches or scattered in the firing environment.
  • the CH 526 086 A discloses a carriage for an automatic firearm having a rear ejection opening for empty cartridge sleeves, which are derived by a baffle in a container.
  • a second baffle is involved, the first baffle hinged in the area at the rear and the second baffle at the front edge of the ejection opening on the Schwarzerbaren part and in a guided while elevating the weapon fixed part.
  • a loading and collecting device is known, which is attached to the back of the closure or at the bottom of a weapon. This has a chute with an upper and a lower opening and means for retracting the sleeve. The lower opening engages in a storage system for receiving the sleeves.
  • the US 2,321,142 A concerns a magazine for an automatic weapon. On one side of the weapon the ammunition is supplied. The sleeves are in turn ejected down from the gun barrel, while the separate belt members fall back laterally via a guide in the container. Both parts fall on a movable plate element, which tilts under the weight around a pivot point, so that the parts come purposefully in the unused area of the magazine to lie.
  • the US 7,543,524 B discloses a machine gun mount for attachment to a movable support arm of a helicopter.
  • An ammunition magazine is disposed on one side of a cradle carrying the weapon and a catcher on the opposite side.
  • the collecting device is integrated so that the catching takes place via a chute projecting upwards from the collecting device. Alone the ammunition magazine can be changed.
  • the US 2,149,522 A relates to another device firmly attached to the weapon for returning the sleeves.
  • the invention arises, starting from the US 2 149 522 A
  • the object of the invention is to provide a catching device which can ideally also absorb laterally ejected parts, such as sleeves and / or connector elements / belt links, even with an elevatable weapon and allow it to slide into a container.
  • the object is achieved by the features of claim 1.
  • Advantageous embodiments are shown in the subclaims.
  • the invention is based on the idea, for example, laterally to integrate a weapon station, a collecting device and a cooperating with this collecting container.
  • the collecting container in a particular embodiment may be part of the safety gear.
  • the collection bin is located separately and adjacent or behind the weapon station. Alternatively, however, the collecting container can also be integrated all around the weapon station.
  • the empty shell and / or the belt members / connector elements are directed against the side catching device and from there into the catch tank. Due to the special design of the safety gear steering is preferably carried out by (along-) sliding of the parts on the rear wall of the device.
  • the proposed concept can also be used in weapons systems in which the belt members after the firing of ammunition still have to be separated from each other, as they themselves do not fall apart and the belt links remain connected to each other via hooks and eyes.
  • a belt separator can be integrated in front of the safety gear.
  • Such a separation device describes the EP 1 985 960 A1
  • Another separator is also in the not previously published DE 10 2009 031 286.2 shown by the applicant.
  • the separating device comprises a lower guide as well as an upper guide, wherein the lower guide is adapted to the width of the connection point, that is formed on the width of the hooks and eyes, and by two tongue-like rails or the like.
  • the upper guide is preferably from a spring, in which a control cam is integrated for guiding the belt member to be separated.
  • the width of the spring is preferably equal to the width of the hooks and eyes. This is in a preferred embodiment, one in which also not published before DE 10 2009 031 285.4 the Applicant, shown ejection device downstream, which in turn can throw the separate belt members in an unspecified fall arrester.
  • the attachment to the weapon station is preferably carried out via so-called quick fasteners, etc., so that a simple and quick upgrade or removal of the safety gear in particular is possible.
  • the collecting container can also be fastened to the weapon station via quick-release fasteners.
  • the safety gear and the container on these quick couplings of the weapon station - depending on the requirements of the customer or the use - removed or attached to this.
  • By choosing lightweight materials additional weight is minimized with optimum performance.
  • Another advantage of the design is that it can be adapted to the respective weapon type, caliber type as well as ejection type, since it is not only laterally einbindbar.
  • Fig. 1 is a weapon station 1 with an indicated ammunition container 2 for the storage of ammunition (not shown in detail) for a weapon 4, for example, a lafett Arthurs machine gun equipped.
  • the weapon 4 is arranged on the weapon station 1 or stored in this and can be eleviert for ballistic compensation of the firing range.
  • the weapon 4 is changeable in azimuth.
  • the relative position of the weapon 4 as well as the ammunition entry and exit of the weapon station 1 change with an elevation.
  • a safety device (device) 5 is fastened via fasteners 6 to the weapon station 1.
  • This safety gear 5 derives the ejected parts into a preferably separate collecting container 3.
  • the fasteners 6 are preferably quick fasteners.
  • the safety gear 5 consists of a substantially U-shaped frame 5.1 with two side parts 5.2 and a preferably semi-circular running intermediate part 5.3.
  • This intermediate part 5.3 forms a rear wall of the safety gear.
  • a kind of covering for the intermediate part 5.3 is provided, so that the rear wall is formed of a fabric.
  • Tissues can be fixed tissue, leather, fibers, etc. are used.
  • the safety gear 5 consists of a plastic and / or metal construction, preferably as a frame, wherein a covering by means of solid fabric, leather, fibers, etc., and the side parts 5.2 is conceivable.
  • a complete plastic and / or metal construction of parts 5.1 to 5.3 is also conceivable.
  • a collecting container 3 is preferably integrated at the rear end of the weapon station 1 and connected thereto, so that the collecting container 3 can be carried along in azimuth even when turning the weapon station 1.
  • the container can also be integrated so that it surrounds the weapon station 1 all around and is designed as a fixed part with a vehicle roof or an object (not shown) on which the weapon station 1 is mounted.
  • Fig. 2 shows the ammunition flow of ammunition not shown by the arrow 7.
  • the weapon 4 draws this in a known manner the ammunition, fires the (not shown) projectile and conveys the sleeve / connector 8 in the direction 9 out of the weapon 4 out ,
  • the safety gear 5 catches them and conveys them, preferably by sliding down or down, into the collecting container 3.
