Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage and guiding device for weapons in a military ship, in particular in a submarine with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such storage and guide devices include, for example, guided by the Druck Eisendung weapon tubes of submarines.
  • the weapons contained therein such as torpedoes, missiles or underwater mines are stored and guided on plastic rails.
  • the plastic rails are screwed onto welded in the weapon tube radially projecting studs and have when installed in the gun barrel in the radial direction of the pipe on an excess.
  • the finishing of the plastic rails by means of a Kaliberfräsmaschine, with which they are milled on her with the caliber of weapons corresponding gauge block.
  • the KR 2008 0065883 A shows a shock absorbing torpedo tube having an inner tube, an outer tube, a shock absorber element, a positioning cylinder, a first waterproof ring, a second waterproof ring and two wire cutting devices.
  • the inner tube has a first pressure water inlet opening.
  • the outer tube has a second pressure water inlet opening.
  • the shock absorbing member absorbs a shock applied to the inner shooting tube.
  • the positioning cylinder adjusts the height of a front end and a rear end of the inner tube.
  • the first watertight ring and the second watertight ring are disposed between the inner and outer tubes.
  • the wire cutting device and the inner wire cutting device cut a setting wire which is connected to a weapon.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a storage and guiding device for weapons in a military ship and in particular in a submarine, which is easier to manufacture and repair.
  • the weapons storage and guiding device is intended for use in military vessels and in particular for use in submarines. It has a tube which forms a receiving space for at least one weapon.
  • This tube may be z. B. to be a guided by the pressure hull of a submarine gun barrel or a weapons advance.
  • a plurality of guide rails are arranged, which extend in the longitudinal direction of the tube.
  • four guide rails are arranged in the tube, which are distributed uniformly in the circumferential direction of the tube.
  • adjusting means are provided, with which the radial distance of at least one and preferably all guide rails of an inner wall of the tube is adjustable.
  • the guide rails With these adjusting means, which are connected directly to the respective guide rail, the guide rails can be moved away from the inner wall of the tube or towards the inner wall. In this way, the position of the guide rails can be adjusted comparatively quickly and simply exactly to the caliber of a weapon to be stored in the tube become. Post-processing of the guide rails in the tube, as hitherto usual in the production of storage and guiding devices, is no longer necessary. Accordingly, the production of the storage and guiding device according to the invention over the previously known devices of this type is simplified. Retrofit and repair work requires a significantly lower cost.
  • the guide rails are each mounted on a plurality of adjusting means.
  • the actuating means used for supporting a guide rail are expediently arranged distributed in a straight line one behind the other substantially over the entire length of the tube. Due to the large number of adjusting means, the weight load acting on a single adjusting means is significantly reduced. Furthermore, it is possible to use the plurality of adjusting means, multi-part constructed guide rails, wherein the individual guide rail elements can be arranged in alignment with each other in succession on the actuators.
  • the guide rails are each mounted on a plurality of screws, which are arranged spaced apart from each other in the tube in a line extending in the longitudinal direction of the tube and are screwed on the tube side.
  • the guide rails can advantageously be mounted directly on the screw heads of the adjusting screws, which are preferably designed as flat head screws, and can be firmly connected to the adjusting screws in the region of the screw heads.
  • the setscrews can all be the same length. However, it may be z. B. then, if an eccentric storage and leadership of the weapon in the tube is required, also be appropriate, different to use long screws, the individual guide rails are each mounted on screws of the same length.
  • the screwing of the screws can be done directly on the inner wall of the tube, in which case corresponding threaded holes are formed on the pipe wall for receiving the screws.
  • corresponding threaded holes are formed on the pipe wall for receiving the screws.
  • pressure-bearing storage and guiding devices such as in the guided through the pressure hull weapons tubes of a submarine, but is more advantageously provided to screw the screws in attached to the inner wall of the pipe threaded bushes to weaken the pipe by otherwise required threaded holes in the pipe wall to avoid.
  • the individual threaded bushes are preferably welded to the inner wall of the tube.
  • the storage and attachment of the guide rails on the screws is expediently only when the required radial distance between the screw heads of the screws has been set exactly from the inner wall of the tube.
  • the screws screwed into the threaded bushes are advantageously secured against rotation by means of locknuts. These locknuts are each bolted against an end face of the threaded bushes.
  • a respective T-slot extending over the entire length of the guide rails is formed on one of the inner wall of the tube facing underside of the guide rails for receiving the screw heads of the screws. Accordingly, on the inner wall of the tube facing flat side of the guide rail formed over the entire length of the guide rail continuous recess which extends at a distance from the bottom of the guide rail transversely to the depth of the recess. This extended area is used to accommodate the screw heads of the engaging in the T-slot screws, whereby the guide rail is fixed in a form-fitting manner in the radial direction of the tube to the screws.
  • lock nuts are advantageously provided. These locknuts are screwed onto the set screws and are screwed against the T-slot of the guide rails bounding edge, whereby the guide rails between the screw heads of the screws and the lock nuts are jammed and fixed in this way non-positively in the longitudinal direction of the guide rails.
  • the guide rails are each formed of a metal profile and a plastic profile mounted thereon.
  • the metal profile gives the guide rails compared to the previously used guide rails, which are made exclusively of plastic, a much greater rigidity or strength, whereby an undesirable deflection of the guide rails is prevented even if the number of screws, on each of which a guide rail is mounted , less than the number of welding studs used so far for the storage of plastic rails.
  • the metal profile is the part of the guide rails that faces the inner wall of the pipe. Accordingly, the T-slot may be formed on the metal profile, in which engage the screws.
  • the plastic profiles of the guide rails are attached to the inside of the tube facing the outside of the metal profiles and form the guideways for the weapons stored in the pipe and / or containers. Because of its very low coefficient of friction against other materials can be used as a material for the plastic profiles z. As PTFE can be used.
  • a gun barrel 2 of a submarine which in the area of the bow of the submarine by a in Fig. 1 only hinted illustrated pressure body 4 is guided.
  • the gun barrel 2 In the direction of its longitudinal axis A, the gun barrel 2 is formed in three parts, with a arranged in the interior of the pressure hull 4 pipe section 6 a pressure body passage forming pipe section 8 with greater wall thickness and the pipe section 8 a completely outside the pressure hull 4 arranged pipe section 10 connects.
