Definitions
- the invention relates to a small- or medium-caliber machine gun with a stored in a weapon or cradle weapon barrel.
- the invention has for its object to provide a small- or medium caliber machine gun, in which the gun barrel is supported so that the radial amplitudes of the gun barrel occurring during firing are reduced as a result of pipe vibrations.
- a basic idea of the invention is to surround the weapon barrel with a pipe support which is guided to just behind the region of the mouth of the weapon barrel.
- This pipe support is firmly connected to the weapon mount or the cradle and performed so stiffened that it counteracts the occurring pipe vibrations. This is done via arranged in the pipe support support elements whose distance from the outer wall of the gun barrel is dimensioned so that an unobstructed return of the gun tube is guaranteed, but transmitted radial vibrations or bending of the gun barrel of these support elements on the pipe support and are collected by this.
- the gun barrel When shooting without Rohrabstützung the gun barrel is set in vibration and it form local Schwingungsbäuche, where the amplitude of vibration is increased compared to other locations of the gun barrel.

- a particularly effective damping can be achieved if the support elements are arranged at the locations of the increased amplitude of amplification, in particular the greatest oscillation amplitude, in relation to other points.
- the pipe support can be made in lightweight construction and the shaping can be such that a high rigidity is achieved. Due to the lightweight construction, a reasonable degree of imbalance can be achieved, so that in stabilized systems, the stabilization quality is not significantly adversely affected.

- the tubular element with a circular inner cross-section has at least over part of its length a top piece, which may be arranged for example on the top of the tubular element and has a substantially V- or U-shaped cross-section and which is placed such that between Pipe element and attachment piece a continuous channel is formed.
- This top piece serves on the one hand to further stiffen the construction of the pipe support and also has the advantage that can be passed through the designed as a continuous channel interior in a gun barrel with electrical components in the mouth of the gun barrel electrical leads.
- FIGS. 1 to 5 show the barrel 1 of a machine gun, not shown otherwise, which is mounted in an only indicated weapon mount 2.
- a pipe support is arranged, which has a tubular element 3, which is guided by the weapon barrel 1 to the area immediately behind the mouth 1.1 of the gun barrel 1 surrounding the barrel 1, with additional muzzle assemblies, such as a muzzle brake and electronic assemblies , may be provided, which are known per se and are not described in detail.
- the distance of the front end of the tubular element 3 from the mouth of the gun barrel is chosen so that the pipe return is taken into account and can go unhindered.
- supporting elements 5 are arranged at the front end.
- the arrangement is Fig. 5 to take more precisely.
- the support elements 4 are distributed on the circumference of the tubular element at an angular distance of about 120 ° and firmly connected to the tubular element 3.
- the distance between the support elements 4 of the outer wall of the gun barrel 1 is such that on the one hand unimpeded return of the gun barrel 1 under all conditions, including at elevated temperature is ensured, but received radial vibrations or bending of the gun barrel 1 of the support elements 4 and be transferred to the pipe element 3.
- Fig. 3 As Fig. 3 can be seen, 3 more support elements 4 and 6 are distributed over the length of the tubular element.
- the tubular element 3 may have 1 different length over its length, depending on the thickness of the gun barrel. Thus, for example, in the rear thickened region 1.2 of the gun barrel, the inner diameter of the tubular element 3 is greater than at the front end and the support elements 6 are adjusted accordingly.
- a top section 3.1 is arranged over part of its length, which, like Fig. 5 can be seen, has a substantially V-shaped or U-shaped, rounded cross-section and is welded with its free ends to the tubular element 3.
- This attachment 3.1 not only serves to further stiffen the pipe support, but its interior is a passage 3.2, through which electrical lines can be performed in a manner not shown, arranged in the mouth region 1.1 of the gun barrel, electronic components with signal and evaluation units, not shown connect.
- the pipe support is stiffened by a further attachment piece 3.3.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine klein- oder mittelkalibrige Maschinenkanone mit einem in einer Waffenaufnahme oder Wiege gelagerten Waffenrohr.The invention relates to a small- or medium-caliber machine gun with a stored in a weapon or cradle weapon barrel.
Bei derartigen Maschinenkanonen tritt das Problem auf, dass beim Schießen im Stand oder aus der Fahrt ungewünschte Rohrschwingungen in hinsichtlich des Waffenrohres radialer Richtung auftreten. Diese können Einfluss auf die Streuung der Waffe im System haben. Bisher wurde versucht, durch entsprechende Steifigkeit in der Ausbildung des Waffenrohres den auftretenden radialen Rohrschwingungen entgegenzuwirken. Das Problem wird dadurch verschärft, dass, in Folge der Verwendung von intelligenter Munition, immer kompliziertere und schwerer werdende Mündungsbaugruppen (Mündungsbremsen) notwendig wurden, die teilweise mit elektronischen Baugruppen, zum Beispiel zur Geschwindigkeitsmessung und/oder zur Programmierung der Munition versehen wurden. Somit häuften sich die Probleme mit der Streuung der Waffe durch Rohrschwingungen.In such machine guns, the problem arises that occur when shooting in the state or from the ride unwanted tube vibrations in terms of the gun barrel radial direction. These can influence the scattering of the weapon in the system. So far, attempts have been made by appropriate rigidity in the formation of the gun barrel occurring radial Counteract tube vibrations. The problem is aggravated by the fact that, as a result of the use of intelligent ammunition, ever more complicated and heavier muzzle assemblies (muzzle brakes) have become necessary, which were partially provided with electronic assemblies, for example for speed measurement and / or programming of the ammunition. Thus, the problems with the dispersion of the weapon by pipe vibrations accumulated.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine klein- oder mittelkalibrige Maschinenkanone zu schaffen, bei der das Waffenrohr derart abgestützt ist, dass die beim Schießen auftretenden radialen Amplituden des Waffenrohres in Folge von Rohrschwingungen vermindert werden.The invention has for its object to provide a small- or medium caliber machine gun, in which the gun barrel is supported so that the radial amplitudes of the gun barrel occurring during firing are reduced as a result of pipe vibrations.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe geschieht erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of the characterizing part of
Ein Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, das Waffenrohr mit einer Rohrabstützung zu umgeben, die bis unmittelbar hinter den Bereich der Mündung des Waffenrohres geführt ist. Diese Rohrabstützung ist fest mit der Waffenaufnahme oder der Wiege verbunden und derart versteift ausgeführt, dass sie den auftretenden Rohrschwingungen entgegenwirkt. Dies geschieht über in der Rohrabstützung angeordnete Abstützelemente, deren Abstand von der Aussenwand des Waffenrohres so bemessen ist, dass ein ungehinderter Rücklauf des Waffenrohres gewährleistet ist, aber radiale Schwingungen oder Verbiegungen des Waffenrohres von diesen Abstützelementen auf die Rohrabstützung übertragen und von dieser aufgefangen werden.A basic idea of the invention is to surround the weapon barrel with a pipe support which is guided to just behind the region of the mouth of the weapon barrel. This pipe support is firmly connected to the weapon mount or the cradle and performed so stiffened that it counteracts the occurring pipe vibrations. This is done via arranged in the pipe support support elements whose distance from the outer wall of the gun barrel is dimensioned so that an unobstructed return of the gun tube is guaranteed, but transmitted radial vibrations or bending of the gun barrel of these support elements on the pipe support and are collected by this.
Beim Schießen ohne Rohrabstützung wird das Waffenrohr in Schwingung versetzt und es bilden sich lokale Schwingungsbäuche aus, an denen die Schweingungsamplitude gegenüber anderen Stellen des Waffenrohres erhöht ist. Die Stellen der erhöhten Amplituden sind von den Eigenschaften des Waffenrohres abhängig, beispielsweise von der Länge, der Steifigkeit und des Materials des Waffenrohres, wobei sie durch Simulation oder durch Experimente ermittelbar sind. Eine besonders wirksame Dämpfung lässt sich erreichen, wenn die Abstützelemente an den Stellen der gegenüber anderen Stellen erhöhten Schweingungsamplitude, insbesondere der größten Schwingungsamplitude, angeordnet sind.When shooting without Rohrabstützung the gun barrel is set in vibration and it form local Schwingungsbäuche, where the amplitude of vibration is increased compared to other locations of the gun barrel. The locations of the increased amplitudes are dependent on the characteristics of the weapon barrel, for example on the length, rigidity and material of the weapon barrel, which can be determined by simulation or by experiments. A particularly effective damping can be achieved if the support elements are arranged at the locations of the increased amplitude of amplification, in particular the greatest oscillation amplitude, in relation to other points.
Die Rohrabstützung kann in Leichtbauweise ausgeführt sein und die Formgebung kann so sein, dass eine hohe Steifigkeit erreicht wird. Durch die Leichtbauweise kann ein vertretbares Maß an Unbalance erreicht werden, so dass bei stabilisierten Systemen die Stabilisierungsgüte nicht wesentlich nachteilig beeinflusst wird.The pipe support can be made in lightweight construction and the shaping can be such that a high rigidity is achieved. Due to the lightweight construction, a reasonable degree of imbalance can be achieved, so that in stabilized systems, the stabilization quality is not significantly adversely affected.
Die Rohrabstützung ist grundsätzlich als Rohrelement ausgebildet, dessen Innendurchmesser um einen vorgegebenen Betrag größer ist als der Außendurchmesser des Waffenrohres. Das Rohrelement kann unterschiedliche Querschnitte aufweisen. So kann sein Innenquerschnitt beispielsweise mindestens auf einem der Mündung des Waffenrohres zugewandten Teilabschnitt seiner Länge kreisförmig, oval, elliptisch oder auch vieleckig, beispielsweise rautenförmig, sein. Bei den Querschnitten mit unterschiedlichen Innendurchmessern hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn der Innendurchmesser in Elevationsrichtung der Bewegung des Waffenrohres größer ist als der Innendurchmesser in Azimutrichtung.The pipe support is basically designed as a tubular element whose inner diameter is larger by a predetermined amount than the outer diameter of the gun barrel. The pipe element may have different cross sections. Thus, its inner cross section, for example, at least on one of the mouth of the gun barrel facing portion of its length circular, oval, elliptical or polygonal, for example, diamond-shaped, his. In the cross sections with different inner diameters, it has proved to be advantageous if the inner diameter in the elevation direction of the movement of the weapon barrel is greater than the inner diameter in the azimuth direction.
Bei einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform besitzt das Rohrelement mit kreisförmigem Innenquerschnitt mindestens auf einem Teil seiner Länge ein Aufsatzstück, das beispielsweise an der Oberseite des Rohrelements angeordnet sein kann und einen im wesentlichen V- oder U-förmigen Querschnitt aufweist und das derart aufgesetzt ist, dass zwischen Rohrelement und Aufsatzstück ein durchlaufender Kanal gebildet ist. Dieses Aufsatzstück dient einerseits zur weiteren Versteifung der Konstruktion der Rohrabstützung und hat zudem den Vorteil, dass durch den als durchlaufender Kanal ausgebildeten Innenraum bei einem Waffenrohr mit elektrischen Baugruppen im Bereich der Mündung des Waffenrohres elektrische Zuleitungen hindurchgeführt werden können.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the tubular element with a circular inner cross-section has at least over part of its length a top piece, which may be arranged for example on the top of the tubular element and has a substantially V- or U-shaped cross-section and which is placed such that between Pipe element and attachment piece a continuous channel is formed. This top piece serves on the one hand to further stiffen the construction of the pipe support and also has the advantage that can be passed through the designed as a continuous channel interior in a gun barrel with electrical components in the mouth of the gun barrel electrical leads.
