Definitions

  • the technical field of the invention is that of positioning and fixing devices for remote ballistic protections for a structure, such as a military vehicle or a fixed shelter.
  • the US2009266227 describes a type of protection formed by a net which is positioned at a distance from the walls of the vehicle by fixed arms having an end secured to the wall.
  • the protective element exerts its protective function at a distance from the vehicle, which makes it possible not to propagate to the walls of the vehicle the destructive effects suffered by the protection element.
  • This offset of the protection element is particularly necessary when using protection grids against rocket attacks with hollow charge. The projectile must indeed penetrate up to a certain level through the grid to be damaged and that its ignition device is neutralized.
  • This solution also does not facilitate access to the interior of the structure or the vehicle once the protective device in place.
  • WO2011 / 142784 a protection grid deployment device which comprises folding arms located between a vehicle wall and a protection element. These arms have a large number of sections that are interconnected by joints. These arms are interposed between the vehicle wall and the protection element and they penalize the template of the vehicle even in their folded position.
  • the patent US2011 / 0303817 proposes a device comprising flexible arms for maintaining the ballistic protection elements at a distance from a vehicle. This device does not however reduce the lateral size of the protections but it only prevents their damage following an impact.
  • the invention proposes a device for positioning and fixing ballistic protections which makes it possible to solve the problem of congestion of remote ballistic protections.
  • the proposed positioning and fixing device facilitates access to the vehicle despite the presence of over-protective elements.
  • the subject of the invention is a device for positioning and fixing at least one ballistic protection element on a structure, such as a vehicle, characterized in that it comprises at least one spar, which can be made integral with the structure, and receiving a telescopic arm, a support means being integral with the end of the arm or arms, the protection element being attached to the support means by a connecting means, arms and spars being intended to be fixed to the structure at the level of the roof of it.
  • the support means comprises a horizontal part which is located above the ballistic protection element, arms and rails being intended to be fixed to the structure at the level of an upper part thereof. this.
  • the horizontal portion is extended at at least one of its ends by a vertical portion on which can be fixed at least one protective element.
  • the means for connecting the support means comprises at least one pivoting hinge.
  • the device comprises at least one lock for holding the telescopic arm in the extended or retracted position.
  • the device comprises at least one retaining means comprising at least one rod comprising at one of its ends a pivoting joint that can be secured to a wall of the structure, the rod having at a second end a securing means with at least one protective element.
  • the device comprises at least one interface rail on which are fixed the pivoting joints, rail intended to be secured to a wall of the structure.
  • the invention also relates to a structure, such as a vehicle, which is equipped with at least one ballistic protection element which is fixed to it by such a positioning and fixing device.
  • the structure according to the invention retains a reasonable size while being equipped with a ballistic protection that can be positioned quickly.
  • the subject of the invention is therefore a structure, such as a vehicle, comprising a roof and two side walls which are protected by means of at least one ballistic protection element which is fixed to the structure by a positioning device and fastening comprising at least one spar, which can be made integral with the structure, and receiving a telescopic arm, a support means being integral with the end of the arm or arms, the protective element being attached to the support means by a connecting means , arms and spars being intended to be fixed to the structure at the roof thereof.
  • the structure carries a support means at each side wall, each support means having a horizontal portion extending over substantially the entire length of the roof of the structure.
  • each spar fixed to the roof of the structure receives two telescopic arms, each arm carrying a support means located at a different side wall.
  • the structure carries an interface rail fixed at each side wall, rail extending over substantially the entire length of the wall and on which are fixed the pivoting joints.
  • a structure which is here a vehicle 100 is protected by vertical anti-rocket protection racks 101 disposed on the periphery of the vehicle 100.
  • the grids shown here are formed of bars parallel to each other. These grids are known in the field of armoring under the name Anglo-Saxon "slat armors”.
  • the grids 101 are held at a distance D1 from the external lateral walls 102 of the vehicle 100 by means of a positioning and fixing device 1 according to the invention.
  • the positioning and fixing device 1 is fixed integrally to the vehicle 100 at the level of pads fastening 2 placed in the superstructure, on the roof 100a of the vehicle 100.
  • Each stud 2 is secured to at least one spar 3 disposed transversely to the main direction of travel of the vehicle 100 in the embodiment shown, ie perpendicular to the side walls 102.
  • each end of each of the longitudinal members 3 is located vertically or in withdrawal from the outer walls 102 of the vehicle 100.
  • the arm 4 can slide in the beam 3 so as to be telescopic.
  • the arm can slide between two extreme positions, said extended position and retracted position, detailed further.
  • the roof 100a of the vehicle carries four longitudinal members 3. Each spar receives two sliding arms.
  • the same set of side members can carry the grilles protecting the two side walls of the vehicle.
  • the support means 5 for attaching the protective grids 101.
  • the support means 5 comprises a tubular horizontal portion positioned above the ballistic protection elements 101 and extending over approximately the entire length of the vehicle.
  • the front end of the horizontal portion 5 has a vertical portion 5b extending towards the ground.
  • the horizontal portion 5 comprises hinges 5a solidarisant each grids 101 with the support means 5 and thus forming a connecting means 5a. There are here two hinges 5a per grid 101.
  • the hinges 5a laterally solidify the grid to the vertical portion 5b.
  • This pivot connection 5a has the function of allowing access to the walls of the vehicle 100 by a simple pivoting of the grid 101 rotating it around the support means 5 as illustrated in FIG. figure 3 .
  • the grid secured to the vertical part 5b of the support can rotate by rotation about this vertical part, thus allowing access to front side doors of the vehicle (not shown).
  • each retaining means 6 comprises a pair of rods 6a and 6b secured by their first end of at least one grid 101, or two when the solidarization is at the level of grids 101 adjoining.
  • This fastening is preferably done thanks to a fast fastening means 6c, which here comprises a plate 6d against which bears the grid and a profiled stop 6e covering the bars of the grid and which is screwed onto the support plate 6d.
  • a fast fastening means 6c which here comprises a plate 6d against which bears the grid and a profiled stop 6e covering the bars of the grid and which is screwed onto the support plate 6d.
  • Each of the second ends of the rods 6a, 6b has a seam 103 pivoting each along a horizontal axis 102b parallel to the wall 102 of the vehicle.
  • This joint 103 is integral with a rail 110 acting as an interface piece 110 with pre-existing bosses on the wall 102 of the vehicle (not shown bosses and wall). These bosses are usually used to attach accessories to the outside of the vehicle 100.
  • this retaining means 6 is to prevent oscillations and swings of the grid 101 around the support means 5 when the device 1 is deployed. Note that in the deployed position, the device 1 places the gates 101 substantially parallel to the walls 102 of the vehicle 100 and at a distance D1 between 0.25 and 0.90 meters from the outer wall 102 of the vehicle 100.
  • each arm 4 is pressed telescopically into the spar 3 with which it corresponds.
  • the telescopic assembly obtained by the correspondence between the external section of the arms and the internal section of the longitudinal members 3, allows to press the grids 101 to the outer walls 102 of the vehicle 100, or at least to place them in the vicinity of the walls 102 at a distance D2 between 0 and 0.1 meter.
  • the gauge of the vehicle 100 is only very slightly impacted by the addition of protective grids 101.
  • the retaining means 6 are themselves pivoted and pressed along the walls 102 of the vehicle 100 in order not to hinder the bringing the gates 101 closer to the vehicle 100.
  • the device according to the invention can be implemented to fix ballistic protections to a fixed structure, for example a command shelter or a field hospital.
  • the device and the structure equipped according to the invention allow an easy and quick deployment and retreat of the protection means, with an impact on the template which is reduced. This is particularly interesting for vehicles.
  • the device being fixed at the level of the roof of the structure, it has a minimal lateral space requirement.
  • the support means being disposed above the ballistic protection elements they do not reduce the effectiveness of the latter.
