Definitions

  • the invention generally relates to the armor of vehicles, in particular of military land or water vehicles.
  • the invention particularly relates to structural components for such a vehicle, which have a layer structure with inner honeycomb core and at least one cover layer.
  • An armor steel plate made of typical 8mm steel armor has a basis weight between 60kg / m 2 and 70kg / m 2 .
  • Conventional armor leads accordingly to very high total weight. High weight of the armor is obviously detrimental, among other things, in terms of mobility, payload and also the range of the vehicle.
  • modular armor typically include a monolithic steel plate with 8mm thickness as a base armor and a variable mission-related additional armor, for example. From ceramic composite tiles. Also in this case, the armor steel plate provides a basic protection and ensures the structural integrity.
  • the variable additional armor (English abbreviated: engl. "Add-on") allows the mission-adapted to increase the protection of the basic armor and, for example, to adapt to certain effectors. Modular armor is nowadays favored because of polyvalent threats in the field. However, the add-on protection of modular armor leads to an additional weight gain of the entire system. Frequently, vehicles in the field of application are already moving close to or at the limit of the permissible total mass. Another advantage of modular armor is, however, that the vehicle is distributed in two freights in particular by air transport, ie that the additional armor can be separately loaded or transported.
  • the international application WO 03/058151 describes a mine protection for armored vehicles, which has a layer structure with several different honeycomb cores. This structure is complex and includes within the proposed layer structure, inter alia, thin metal plates and layers of ceramic material. From such a structural component is expected to good protection, but only small weight savings.
  • the European patent application EP 0237095 describes a composite plate with similar layer structure, which also has a plurality of thin metal plates and a layer of ceramic material. This layer structure is intended to offer a high protective effect with a simultaneously limited weight per unit area.
  • Another complex layer structure for arming vehicles is from the US patent US 4404889 known. This is to achieve an increased protective effect, however, the basis weight is relatively high (see “table A” off US 4404889 ), since steel plates are also used within the layer structure here.
  • Another composite armor is also from the US patent US 4529640 known. The latter armor comprises a hostile steel plate on which a honeycomb core is attached as a spacer for a friendly layer of fiberglass layers.
  • German utility model DE 8804278 describes an armor plate for motor vehicles, which has three layers, namely an inner layer of fiber composite plastic (FRP), an intermediate layer of ceramic material and the vehicle sheet opposite layer of honeycomb material.
  • FRP fiber composite plastic
  • the European patent application EP 1679484 discloses a device for fastening ballistic protective elements against objects to be protected against the effects of weapons, in particular on casings of armored vehicles.
  • the European patent EP 1361408 discloses a composite armor structure for ballistic protection of a gap between at least one armor module and the structural components of the basic structure of the aircraft to be protected.
  • the body of this reticulated structure has upper, lower and intermediate layers with a cavity in which a ceramic material is provided.
  • the structure will be according to EP 1361408 in addition to the structural components and the additional armor, ie the armor modules, and thus increases the total weight.
  • the French patent application FR 2723192 describes a relatively simple compared to the above examples layer structure, which does not require layer of armor steel and should achieve additional weight savings.
  • This layer structure has a core composite, which comprises a honeycomb core with two-sided cover layers made of fiber composite plastic (FRP). On the enemy side, ceramic tiles are glued to the core composite, which are protected against external aggressions by an additional fiber-reinforced plastic layer.
  • FRP fiber composite plastic
  • the international application WO 2007/024243 discloses a structural component according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a structural component according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • here in the layer structure neither a supporting metal layer nor a hard material layer of ceramic is provided.
  • the preparation should be carried out in the pultrusion process, for example with a foam core with open or closed cells.
  • a structural component produced in this way in particular with a foam core, inter alia the connection with the rest of the structure of the vehicle should form an improvement point of weakness.
  • the structural components made of composite material described above are either designed as actual additional armor or, in the case of execution as basic armor, provided with complex protective functions. They are all not immediately applicable for a lately preferred use as a modular armor with variable additional protection.
  • An object of the present invention is thus to provide a structural component for armored vehicles, which is particularly lightweight and allows the use of replaceable additional armor in a simple manner, and provides a basic protection.
  • the structural component according to the invention is characterized in that neither a supporting or monolithic metal layer such as armored steel nor a hard material layer made of ceramic is present in the layer structure.
  • the layer structure consists mainly of a core composite composite with a honeycomb core, preferably of fiber composite plastic (FRP), and with at least one side, preferably on both sides of a cover layer on the honeycomb core. Alone this simplified lightweight design already reduces the weight.
  • a structural component according to the invention is characterized in that fastener elements are anchored in the core composite, namely in corresponding fastening regions, which serves for the detachable fastening of an additional armor to be attached to the enemy side or the threat side.
  • the invention is characterized in that at least one reinforced area is provided for the connection of the structural component with the rest of the structure of the vehicle, in the outer edge region of the core composite, wherein within the corresponding, locally limited area of the attachment areas and the at least one reinforced area all cells of the honeycomb core are each completely filled with a filling material.
  • the use of the layer structure as a pure basic protection or basic armor is made possible in a simple manner to which variable, depending on the application, modular additional armor can be attached.
  • the core composite itself already provides a basic protection, in particular against shock waves or pressure waves ("blast") and optionally together with splinter protection (so-called “spall liner”) even against splinters.
  • the core composite itself (per se) forms the actual supporting structure for an exchangeable additional armor to be adapted for the mission, for example in the form of modules.
  • the structural component is therefore not only self-supporting, but the core composite is suitable to carry the burden of common auxiliary armor and transferred to the rest of the structure of the vehicle. There is no additional armor permanently integrated into the layer structure.
  • the proposed solution makes it possible to optimize the protection of the vehicle for operational reasons, in particular with the aim of minimizing weight.
  • the invention proposes, even contrary to conventional solutions, not to integrate the protection against different effectors directly into the layer structure. This means a significant reduction of the mass of the basic protection thus the total mass of the vehicle.
  • the average basis weight of the core composite per se in particular the portion of the layer structure which substitutes the typical steel plate (ie, ignoring friend-side splinter protection), is less than 40kg / m 2 , more preferably less than 15kg / m 2 , despite in comparison to steel armor necessarily larger wall thickness, which is preferably smaller overall than 50mm.
  • the proposed layer structure can be expected to save more than 10% of weight, estimated at up to 50%. The goal and conceivable of course are weight savings of over 50% compared to armored steel as a basic protection.
  • the core composite itself consists of a honeycomb core and on both sides mounted opposite outer layers.
  • a core network can be used together with a friend-side, d. H. facing the vehicle interior, splinter protection layer ("spall liner") represent the basic protection of the vehicle.
  • the structural component consists of a layer structure comprising essentially only four layers except, in particular, adhesive layers and functional films without protective effect: an enemy-side cover layer, a honeycomb core, a friend-side cover layer and a friend-side splinter protection layer.
  • intervening functional layers such as adhesive or interface layers, may be provided for joining the layers, but their thickness can be neglected.
  • Such functional layers serve only the connection or compound formation or as an interface between different materials, for example, the splinter protection and the friend-side cover layer.
  • Thermoplastics have proven to be particularly suitable adhesives for bonding the layers.
  • the cover layers are made of fiber composite, in particular of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP).
  • the honeycomb core can be made of different materials, in addition to FVK, in particular with glass fibers or aramid fibers, also, for example. From aluminum foil.
  • the splinter protection is preferably made of a high-strength plastic, in particular of high-strength polyethylene (PE) such as Dyneema®. Also other tear-resistant plastics, eg a FVK with aramid fibers, can be used as shatter protection.
  • PE polyethylene
  • other tear-resistant plastics eg a FVK with aramid fibers, can be used as shatter protection.
  • the layer for splinter protection may have a core wall similar or possibly greater wall thickness. Overall, the wall thickness of the structural component will naturally be greater than in a suitably protective armored steel.
  • the honeycomb core has a mean wall thickness below 50mm, preferably in the range of 5mm to 50mm. This allows relatively thin components with at the same time sufficient structural integrity. Sufficient basic protection can be achieved on the friend side and / or enemy side cover layers with average wall thickness in the range of already 0.2 mm to 15 mm, preferably in the range of 0.3 mm to 10 mm.
  • fasteners for the replaceable additional armor metal bushings can be used. These can preferably be provided in each case in the locally delimited fastening area within the honeycomb core and embedded in the core composite and anchored in the fastening area, for example, adhesively bonded.
  • An expedient fastening region can be produced in a manner known per se by suitable filling compound from a duroplastic. Flange bushes made of metal, for example. High-carbon steel, are preferably used with female threads as bushings.
  • the corresponding flange is, when anchored in the core composite, on the enemy side cover layer of the core composite, so that the flange is supported there and accordingly, together with the already load-distributing attachment area, the support of additional armor on the structural component, ie in the mechanical sense, the Reactio to impact forces (impact force actio) optimized.
  • the individual attachment areas according to a regular, with respect to the area equally distributed grid of the structural component distributed provided.

  • the potting compound, as well as for the attachment elements of the additional armor is provided in isolated, locally isolated areas. It is also possible to provide a fully continuous border of the core composite with potting compound, which expediently has partially reinforced foothills inwards, for example, a peninsular shape in front view. These extensions can then be used as reinforced areas for attachment.
  • a structural component according to the above description is particularly suitable as part of the basic armor of an armored vehicle.
