Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Waffenplattform mit einer richtbaren Waffe und einer Zurrvorrichtung zur Festlegung der Waffe sowie ein militärisches Fahrzeug mit einer derartigen Waffenplattform.The invention relates to a weapons platform with a directable weapon and a lashing device for fixing the weapon and a military vehicle with such a weapon platform.

Waffenplattformen weisen üblicherweise eine in Azimut und Elevation richtbare Waffe auf. Um die Waffenplattformen zu einem bestimmten Einsatzort verbringen zu können, ist es bekannt, Waffenplattformen entweder als festen Bestandteil eines militärischen Fahrzeugs oder als eine Art lösbaren Rüstsatz auszubilden, der lösbar von einem Fahrzeug aufgenommen wird. Im Einsatz können die Waffenplattformen dann vom Fahrzeug aus bedient werden, wobei auch Waffenplattformen bekannt sind, die unabhängig von einem Fahrzeug bedient werden können, beispielsweise als stationäre Waffenplattformen zum Schutz von Feldlagern o. ä. Objekten.Weapon platforms usually have a weapon that can be directed in azimuth and elevation.

Die DE298838C offenbart ein Fahrgestell für Mittelpivotgeschütze mit einer Festlegung von Ausleger und Geschützrohr. Die FR2544062 offenbart den nächstliegenden Stand der Technik
Aus der WO 03/025494 A1 ist eine Waffenplattform bekannt, welche auf einem militärischem Fahrzeug angeordnet ist. Zum Transport der Waffenplattform mit dem Fahrzeug wird die als Waffenrohr ausgebildete Waffe zunächst in eine Transportstellung überführt, in welcher sie eine definierte Indexposition einnimmt. In dieser Transportstellung wird die Waffe dann durch eine Zurrvorrichtung festgelegt, um unerwünschte Bewegungen der Waffe beim Transport zu blockieren. Die Zurrvorrichtung wird hierzu manuell in eine Zurrstellung verbracht, in welcher die Waffe durch die Zurrvorrichtung verzurrt ist und sich gegenüber dem Fahrzeug nicht mehr bewegen lässt. Nachdem diese Vorbereitungen durchgeführt wurden, kann die Waffenplattform dann auf sichere Weise zu ihrem Einsatzort transportiert werden.The DE298838C discloses a chassis for central pivot guns with an attachment of boom and gun barrel. The FR2544062 discloses the closest prior art
From the WO 03/025494 A1 is known a weapons platform, which is arranged on a military vehicle. To transport the weapon platform with the vehicle, the weapon designed as a weapon barrel is first transferred to a transport position in which it occupies a defined index position. In this transport position, the weapon is then fixed by a lashing device to block unwanted movements of the weapon during transport. For this purpose, the lashing device is manually moved into a lashing position, in which the weapon is lashed by the lashing device and can no longer be moved relative to the vehicle. After these preparations have been made, the weapon platform can then be safely transported to its location.

Am Einsatzort angekommen ist es dann erforderlich, die Waffe schussbereit zu machen, wozu im Wesentlichen zwei Vorbereitungen zu treffen sind.Once arrived at the site, it is then necessary to make the weapon ready to fire, which essentially requires two preparations.

Zunächst muss die Verzurrung der Waffe gelöst werden. Hierzu wird die Zurrvorrichtung aus der Zurrstellung manuell in eine Stellung verbracht, in welcher die Zurrvorrichtung die Waffe freigibt, so dass die Waffe in Azimut und Elevation gerichtet werden kann.First, the lashing of the weapon must be solved. For this purpose, the lashing device from the lashing position is manually moved to a position in which the lashing device releases the weapon, so that the weapon can be directed in azimuth and elevation.

Zudem ist es aufgrund der sich ergebenden Abschussreaktionskräfte erforderlich, die Waffenplattform gegenüber dem Untergrund abzustützen, so dass die bei der Schussabgabe auftretenden Kräfte kontrolliert in den Untergrund eingeleitet werden können. An der aus der WO 03/025494 A1 bekannten Waffenplattform ist hierzu eine Abstützvorrichtung mit mehreren Stützen vorgesehen, welche jeweils aus einer hochstehenden Stellung in eine Abstützstellung verschwenkt werden können, in der sie mit dem Untergrund in Kontakt stehen und damit eine Abstützung der Waffenplattform gegenüber dem Untergrund ermöglichen.In addition, due to the resulting launch reaction forces, it is necessary to support the weapon platform with respect to the ground so that the forces occurring during the firing can be controlled into the ground. At the from the WO 03/025494 A1 known weapon platform For this purpose, a support device is provided with a plurality of supports, which can each be pivoted from an upright position into a support position in which they are in contact with the ground and thus allow support of the weapon platform relative to the ground.

In diesem Zusammenhang hat es sich als nachteilig herausgestellt, dass mehrere Vorbereitungen separat getroffen werden müssen, um die Waffenplattform in Feuerbereitschaft oder deren Transportstellung zu überführen. Denn es ergeben sich vergleichsweise lange Rüstzeiten, was insbesondere dann von Nachteil sein kann, wenn der Einsatzort der Waffenplattform nach einer Schussabgabe schnell gewechselt werden soll (sogenannte "shoot and scoot"-Taktik).In this context, it has proved to be disadvantageous that several preparations must be made separately in order to transfer the weapons platform in readiness for fire or their transport position. Because there are comparatively long set-up times, which can be particularly disadvantageous if the site of the weapons platform after a firing should be changed quickly (so-called "shoot and scoot" tactics).

Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich die Erfindung die A u fgabe , den Rüstaufwand beim Umrüsten der Waffenplattform von deren Transportstellung in deren Feuerstellung und umgekehrt zu reduzieren.Against this background, the invention provides the task of reducing the set-up effort when retrofitting the weapon platform from its transport position into its firing position and vice versa.

Bei einer Waffenplattform der eingangs genannten Art wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die Zurrvorrichtung von einer Zurrstellung, in welcher die Waffe durch die Zurrvorrichtung festgelegt ist, in eine Abstützstellung überführbar ist, in welcher die Zurrvorrichtung eine Abstützung der Waffenplattform gegenüber dem Untergrund bildet.In a weapon platform of the type mentioned, the object is achieved in that the lashing of a lashing position, in which the weapon is fixed by the lashing device, can be converted into a support position in which the lashing device forms a support of the weapon platform relative to the ground.

Durch die Überführung der Zurrvorrichtung aus der der Transportsicherung dienenden Zurrstellung in eine die Stabilität der Waffenplattform erhöhende und gleichzeitig die Waffe freigebende Abstützstellung kann die Waffenplattform mit wenig Rüstaufwand einsatz- bzw. transportbereit gemacht werden. Mit einer einzigen Maßnahme werden somit zwei Dinge erledigt, nämlich das Lösen der Verzurrung und das Bereitstellen einer Abstützung. In Umkehrung des Vorgangs kann die Waffenplattform durch Überführen der Zurrvorrichtung aus der Abstützstellung in die Zurrstellung in einem Schritt transportbereit gemacht werden, so dass es möglich ist, den Einsatzort der Waffenplattform nach erfolgter Schussabgabe schnell verlassen zu können. Das Umrüsten der Waffenplattform von der Transportstellung in die Feuerstellung und umgekehrt kann mit insgesamt weniger Rüstaufwand erfolgen.By transferring the lashing device from the lashing position of the transport securing device into a support position increasing the stability of the weapon platform and at the same time releasing the weapon, the weapon platform can be made ready for use or transport with little setup effort. With a single action, two things are done, namely the release of the lashing and the provision of a support. In reverse the operation, the weapon platform can be made ready for transport by transferring the lashing device from the support position to the lashing position in one step, so that it is possible to leave the place of use of the weapons platform quickly after firing. The conversion of the weapon platform from the transport position to the firing position and vice versa can be done with less setup effort.

Gemäß der Erfindung weist die Zurrvorrichtung zwei separate Arm auf, welche in der Zurrstellung zur Festlegung der Waffe an der Waffe anliegen. Über die in der Zurrstellung stehenden Arme kann die Waffe in ihrer Transportstellung gehalten werden. Die Arme können in der Zurrstellung von zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten an der Waffe angreifen, so dass die Bewegung der Waffe insbesondere durch Formschluss gehemmt wird. In der Abstützstellung können sich die Arme auf dem Untergrund abstützen, so dass die Waffenplattform einen sicheren Stand gegenüber dem Boden hat.According to the invention, the lashing device on two separate arm, which rest in the lashing position for fixing the weapon to the weapon. About the standing in the lashing arms, the weapon can be kept in its transport position. The arms can attack in the lashing position of two opposite sides of the weapon, so that the movement of the weapon is inhibited in particular by positive engagement. In the support position, the arms can be supported on the ground, so that the weapon platform has a secure position relative to the ground.

Für eine zuverlässige Verzurrung der Waffe ist es ferner vorteilhaft, wenn die Zurrvorrichtung zwei Zurrbacken aufweist, welche die Waffe in der Zurrstellung zangenartig umgreifend festlegen. Hierdurch kann die Waffe in der Transportstellung in vorteilhafter Weise fixiert werden. Die Zurrbacken können an den Armen der Zurrvorrichtung insbesondere im Bereich deren freier Enden angeordnet sein. Durch gegenläufiges Bewegen der Arme können die Zurrbacken von der Abstützstellung, in welcher sie die Waffe freigeben, in die Zurrstellung überführt werden. In der Zurrstellung ergibt sich ein fester Sitz der Zurrbacken an der Waffe. Vorteilhaft ist es in diesem Zusammenhang, wenn die Form der Zurrbacken derart an die Außenkontur der Waffe angepasst ist, dass die Zurrbacken die Waffe in der Zurrstellung vollständig umschließen.For a reliable lashing of the weapon, it is also advantageous if the lashing device has two lashing jaws, which set the weapon in the Zurrstellung pincer-like encompassing. As a result, the weapon can be fixed in the transport position in an advantageous manner. The lashing jaws can be arranged on the arms of the lashing device, in particular in the region of their free ends. By moving the arms in opposite directions, the lashing jaws can be transferred from the support position in which they release the weapon in the lashing position. In the lashing position results in a tight fit of the lashing jaws on the weapon. It is advantageous in this context, if the shape of the lashing jaws is adapted to the outer contour of the weapon, that the lashing jaws completely enclose the weapon in the lashing position.

Von konstruktivem Vorteil ist eine Ausgestaltung, bei welcher die Arme der Zurrvorrichtung durch Verschwenken um zwei parallel zueinander angeordnete Schwenkachsen von der Zurrstellung in die Abstützstellung überführbar sind.Of constructive advantage is an embodiment in which the arms of the lashing device can be transferred by pivoting about two mutually parallel pivot axes of the Zurrstellung in the support position.

Bevorzugt sind die Arme der Zurrvorrichtung im Bereich zweier gegenüberliegender Seiten der Waffenplattform schwenkbeweglich gelagert. Die Waffenplattform kann derart auf einem Fahrzeug angeordnet werden, dass die Arme der Waffenplattform im Bereich der Längsseiten des Fahrzeugs angelenkt sind, so dass sich in der Abstützstellung eine breite, sich seitlich über die Fahrzeugkontur hinaus erstreckende Abstützung der Waffenplattform ergibt.Preferably, the arms of the lashing device in the region of two opposite sides of the weapon platform are pivotally mounted. The weapon platform can be arranged on a vehicle in such a way that the arms of the weapon platform are articulated in the region of the longitudinal sides of the vehicle so that in the support position there is a wide support of the weapon platform extending laterally beyond the vehicle contour.

Zum Schutz des Bedienpersonals hat sich eine Ausgestaltung als vorteilhaft erwiesen, bei welcher die Zurrvorrichtung über einen Antrieb von der Transportstellung in die Abstützstellung überführbar ist und umgekehrt. Über den Antrieb kann die Zurrvorrichtung umgerüstet werden, ohne dass manuelle Tätigkeiten direkt an der Zurrvorrichtung erforderlich wären. Es ist daher nicht erforderlich, dass sich Besatzungsmitglieder aus dem gegen militärische Bedrohungen geschützten Innenraum der Waffenplattform bzw. des Fahrzeugs begeben, um die Zurrvorrichtung von der Transportstellung in die Abstützstellung zu überführen oder umgekehrt. Der Antrieb der Zurrvorrichtung, insbesondere der Arme der Zurrvorrichtung, kann elektrisch, hydraulisch oder pneumatisch sein.To protect the operating personnel, a configuration has proven to be advantageous in which the lashing device can be transferred via a drive from the transport position to the support position and vice versa. The drive can be used to retrofit the lashing device without the need for manual operations directly on the lashing device. It is therefore not necessary that crew members move from the protected against military threats interior of the weapons platform or the vehicle to transfer the lashing device from the transport position to the support position or vice versa. The drive of the lashing device, in particular the arms of the lashing device, can be electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic.

Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist die Waffe an einem Turm angeordnet, welcher gegenüber einem Unterbau der Waffenplattform drehbar gelagert ist, wobei die Zurrvorrichtung an dem Unterbau angeordnet ist, so dass der Turm über die Zurrvorrichtung gegenüber dem Unterbau verzurrt werden kann.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the weapon is arranged on a tower which is rotatably mounted relative to a substructure of the weapon platform, wherein the lashing device is arranged on the substructure, so that the tower can be lashed over the lashing device relative to the substructure.

Bevorzugt ist es ferner, wenn die Arme der Zurrvorrichtung eine Treppe aufweisen. Die Treppe kann in der Abstützstellung einen Zugang zu der Waffenplattform oder dem Fahrzeug ermöglichen, beispielsweise zu Wartungs- oder Inspektionszwecken.It is also preferred if the arms of the lashing device have a staircase. The staircase may allow access to the weapon platform or the vehicle in the support position, for example for maintenance or inspection purposes.

Gemäß einer konstruktiven Ausgestaltung ist die Waffe als Waffenrohr bzw. als Rohrwaffe ausgebildet. Über das Waffenrohr können Geschosse, insbesondere Artilleriegeschosse, verschossen werden. Alternativ kann die Waffe nach Art eines Raketenwerfers, insbesondere nach Art eines Mehrfachraketenwerfers, ausgebildet sein, über welchen Raketen gestartet werden können.According to a structural design, the weapon is designed as a weapon barrel or a barrel weapon. Projectiles, in particular artillery projectiles, can be fired over the weapon barrel. Alternatively, the weapon can be designed in the manner of a rocket launcher, in particular in the manner of a multiple rocket launcher, over which rockets can be launched.

Bei einem Fahrzeug der eingangs genannten Art wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die Zurrvorrichtung von einer Zurrstellung, in welcher die Waffe durch die Zurrvorrichtung festgelegt ist, in eine Abstützstellung überführbar ist, in welcher die Zurrvorrichtung eine Abstützung der Waffenplattform gegenüber dem Untergrund bildet.In a vehicle of the type mentioned, the object is achieved in that the lashing of a lashing position, in which the weapon is determined by the lashing, can be converted into a support position, in which the lashing device forms a support of the weapon platform relative to the ground.

Mit einer einzigen Maßnahme werden somit zwei Dinge erledigt, nämlich das Lösen der Verzurrung und das Bereitstellen einer Abstützung. In Umkehrung des Vorgangs kann die Waffenplattform durch Überführen der Zurrvorrichtung aus der Abstützstellung in die Zurrstellung in einem Schritt transportbereit gemacht werden, so dass es möglich ist, den Einsatzort der Waffenplattform nach erfolgter Schussabgabe schnell verlassen zu können. Das Umrüsten der Waffenplattform von der Transportstellung in die Feuerstellung und umgekehrt kann mit insgesamt weniger Rüstaufwand erfolgen.By transferring the lashing device from the lashing position of the transport securing device into a support position increasing the stability of the weapon platform and at the same time releasing the weapon, the weapon platform can be made ready for use or transport with little setup effort. With a single action, two things are done, namely the release of the lashing and the provision of a support. In reversal of the process, the weapon platform can be made ready for transport by transferring the lashing device from the support position to the lashing position in one step, so that it is possible to leave the location of the weapon platform quickly after firing. The conversion of the weapon platform from the transport position to the firing position and vice versa can be done with less setup effort.

In konstruktiver Ausgestaltung des Fahrzeugs kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Waffenplattform lösbar an dem Fahrzeug angeordnet ist, so dass die Waffenplattform missionsspezifisch ausgewechselt werden kann. Alternativ ist es möglich, die Waffenplattform unlösbar an dem Fahrzeug vorzusehen, wobei das Fahrzeug bei einer solchen Ausgestaltung nicht für andere Einsatzzwecke, beispielsweise als Transportfahrzeug, verwendbar ist.In a constructive embodiment of the vehicle can be provided that the weapons platform is detachably mounted on the vehicle, so that the weapon platform can be replaced mission-specific. Alternatively, it is possible to provide the weapon platform undetachably on the vehicle, wherein the vehicle in such an embodiment is not suitable for other purposes, for example as a transport vehicle.

Sämtliche vorstehend im Zusammenhang mit der Waffenplattform beschriebenen Ausgestaltungen können allein oder in Kombination auch bei dem Fahrzeug erfindungsgemäß Verwendung finden.All embodiments described above in connection with the weapon platform can be used according to the invention alone or in combination also in the vehicle.

In der Fig. 1 ist ein als geländegängiges Radfahrzeug ausgebildetes militärisches Fahrzeug 1 mit einer die Fahrzeugbesatzung aufnehmenden Fahrerkabine 2 abgebildet. Die Fahrerkabine 2 kann gepanzert ausgebildet sein, so dass die sich innerhalb der Fahrerkabine 2 befindenden Besatzungsmitglieder vor der Einwirkung von Geschossen bzw. Minen und ähnlichen militärischen Bedrohungen geschützt sind.In the Fig. 1 is designed as off-road vehicle wheeled military vehicle 1 with a vehicle crew receiving driver's cab 2 shown. The driver's cab 2 can be of armored construction, so that the crew members located inside the driver's cab 2 are protected from the action of projectiles or similar military threats.

Das Fahrzeug 1 weist ferner ein Fahrgestell 3 sowie eine im Bereich oberhalb des Fahrgestells 3 angeordnete Waffenplattform 10 mit einer als Artilleriegeschütz ausgebildeten Waffe 13 auf, auf deren Einzelheiten nachfolgen noch näher eingegangen werden wird. Bei dem Artilleriegeschütz handelt es sich um eine Rohrwaffe 13, welche während der Schussabgabe zur Ableitung der sich ergebenden Abschussreaktionskräfte abgestützt werden muss, da die sich ergebenden Abschussreaktionskräfte von dem Fahrgestell 3 allein nicht aufgenommen werden können.The vehicle 1 further comprises a chassis 3 and a weapon platform 10 arranged in the region above the chassis 3 with a weapon 13 designed as an artillery gun, details of which will be discussed in greater detail below. The artillery gun is a barrel weapon 13 which must be supported during firing to dissipate the resulting launch reaction forces since the resulting launch reaction forces from the chassis 3 alone can not be accommodated.

Die Waffenplattform 10 besteht aus einem plattformartigen Unterbau 11, welcher lösbar mit dem Fahrzeug 1 verbunden ist, sowie einem gegenüber dem Unterbau 11 drehbar gelagerten Turm 12, der oberhalb des Unterbaus 11 angeordnet ist. Der Turm 12 ist in einem Drehlager 14 aufgenommen, über welches der Turm 12 in azimutaler Richtung gerichtet werden kann. In dem Turm 12 ist die Waffe 13 über ein weiteres Drehlager 15 in Elevation richtbar gelagert. Die Waffe 13 kann über die Drehlager 14 und 15 sowie in den Figuren nicht dargestellte entsprechende Richtantriebe in Azimut und Elevation gerichtet werden. Der Turm 12 und der Unterbau 11 bilden insoweit eine Turmlafette.The weapon platform 10 consists of a platform-like substructure 11, which is detachably connected to the vehicle 1, and a relative to the substructure 11 rotatably mounted tower 12, which is arranged above the substructure 11. The tower 12 is received in a pivot bearing 14, via which the tower 12 can be directed in the azimuthal direction. In the tower 12, the weapon 13 is rotatably supported in elevation via a further pivot bearing 15. The weapon 13 can be directed over the pivot bearing 14 and 15 and not shown in the figures corresponding straightening drives in azimuth and elevation. The tower 12 and the substructure 11 in this respect constitute a tower sewer.

In der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Position befindet sich die Waffe 13 in einer Indexstellung, in welcher der Turm 12 bzw. die Rohrseelenachse R des Waffenrohres 13 parallel zur Fahrzeuglängsachse L des Fahrzeugs 1 bzw. zur Längsachse L des Unterbaus 11 ausgerichtet ist. In der Indexstellung nimmt die Waffenplattform 10 eine kompakte Stellung ein, weshalb sich diese insbesondere für Überführungsfahrten oder Marschfahrten eignet, vgl. auch Fig. 4.In the in Fig. 1 shown position, the weapon 13 is in an index position, in which the tower 12 and the Rohrseelenachse R of the gun barrel 13 is aligned parallel to the vehicle longitudinal axis L of the vehicle 1 and to the longitudinal axis L of the substructure 11. In the index position takes the weapon platform 10 a compact position, which is why this is particularly suitable for transfer trips or cruising, see. also Fig. 4 ,

Um unerwünschte Bewegungen oder Schwingungen der Waffe 13 beim Transport mit dem Fahrzeug 1 zu verhindern, kann die Waffe 13, wie in Fig. 3 dargestellt, durch eine Zurrvorrichtung 16 in ihrer Transportstellung festgelegt werden. Hierzu kann die Zurrvorrichtung 16 in eine Zurrstellung überführt werden, in welcher die Waffe 13 verzurrt ist.In order to prevent unwanted movements or vibrations of the weapon 13 during transport with the vehicle 1, the weapon 13, as in Fig. 3 shown to be determined by a lashing device 16 in its transport position. For this purpose, the lashing device 16 can be transferred to a lashing position, in which the weapon 13 is lashed.

Die Zurrvorrichtung 16 besteht aus zwei separaten Armen 17, welche spiegelsymmetrisch zueinander angeordnet und mit einem Ende über Schwenklager 23 schwenkbeweglich an dem Unterbau 11 der Waffenplattform 10 angelenkt sind. Die Arme 17 sind im Bereich zweier gegenüberliegender Seiten der Waffenplattform 10 schwenkbeweglich gelagert. Im Bezug auf das Fahrzeug 1 sind die Arme 17 im Bereich der Längsseiten des Fahrzeugs 1 angelenkt. In der Zurrstellung sind die Arme 17 derart ausgerichtet, dass sie sich im Bereich oberhalb des Unterbaus 11 befinden und die Arme 17 an dem Waffenrohr 13 anliegen. Wie der Fig. 3 ferner zu entnehmen ist, sind die Arme 17 in der Zurrstellung im Wesentlichen senkrecht ausgerichtet.The lashing device 16 consists of two separate arms 17, which are arranged mirror-symmetrically to each other and hinged at one end via pivot bearings 23 pivotally mounted on the base 11 of the weapon platform 10. The arms 17 are pivotally mounted in the region of two opposite sides of the weapon platform 10. With regard to the vehicle 1, the arms 17 are articulated in the region of the longitudinal sides of the vehicle 1. In Zurrstellung the arms 17 are aligned so that they are located in the area above the base 11 and the arms 17 abut the gun barrel 13. Again Fig. 3 it can also be seen, the arms 17 are aligned in the lashing position substantially perpendicular.

An den Armen 17 sind Zurrbacken 18 angeordnet, welche das Waffenrohr 13 in der Zurrstellung nach Art einer Zange umgreifen und auf diese Weise in seiner Transportstellung festlegen. Die Zurrbacken 18 sind jeweils im Bereich des freien Endes eines Arms 17 mit dem Arm 17 verbunden und stehen von dem jeweiligen Arm 17 in etwa rechtwinklig ab. Ferner sind die Zurrbacken 18 nach Art von Platten ausgebildet, welche gegenüber den Armen 17 abgewinkelt angeordnet sind. An den Zurrbacken 18 ist an den vorderen Enden eine kreissegmentförmige Rohraufnahme 18.1 vorgesehen, deren Kontur an die Außenkontur des Waffenrohrs 13 angepasst ist, wodurch ein guter Sitz des Waffenrohrs 13 in den Zurrbacken 18 erreicht wird. Gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel weist die Rohraufnahme 18.1 eine kreisbogenförmige Kontur auf, die an den kreisrunden Querschnitt des Waffenrohrs 13 angepasst ist. Die Zurrbacken 18 können über die Arme 17 um eine Schwenkachse S verschwenkt werden, welche parallel zur Rohrseelenachse R des Waffenrohrs 13 in der Transportstellung ausgerichtet ist.On the arms 17 lashing jaws 18 are arranged, which surround the gun barrel 13 in the lashing position in the manner of a pair of pliers and set in this way in its transport position. The lashing jaws 18 are each connected to the arm 17 in the region of the free end of an arm 17 and project from the respective arm 17 approximately at right angles. Furthermore, the lashing jaws 18 are formed in the manner of plates, which are arranged angled relative to the arms 17. At the lashing jaws 18, a circular segment-shaped tube receiving 18.1 is provided at the front ends, whose contour is adapted to the outer contour of the gun barrel 13, whereby a good fit of the gun barrel 13 is achieved in the lashing jaws 18. According to the exemplary embodiment, the pipe receptacle 18. 1 has a circular-arc-shaped contour, which is adapted to the circular cross-section of the weapon barrel 13. The lashing jaws 18 can be pivoted about the arms 17 about a pivot axis S, which is aligned parallel to the Rohrseelenachse R of the gun barrel 13 in the transport position.

Um die Waffenplattform 10 in einen Zustand der Einsatzbereitschaft zu überführen, ist es erforderlich, einerseits die Verzurrung der Waffe 13 zu lösen, so dass die Waffe 13 in Azimut und Elevation gerichtet werden kann. Zudem ist es erforderlich, die Waffenplattform 10 gegenüber dem Untergrund abzustützen, so dass die bei der Schussabgabe auftretenden Rückstoßkräfte kontrolliert in den Untergrund eingeleitet werden können. Um den dabei anfallenden Rüstaufwand gering zu halten, ist die Zurrvorrichtung 16 bei der erfindungsgemäßen Waffenplattform 10 in eine Abstützstellung überführbar ausgebildet. In der Abstützstellung ist die Verzurrung der Waffe 13 gelöst und die Zurrvorrichtung 16 bildet eine Abstützung der Waffenplattform 10 gegenüber dem Untergrund. Der Zurrvorrichtung 16 kommt insoweit eine Doppelfunktion zu. Durch Überführung der Zurrvorrichtung 16 von der der Transportsicherung dienenden Zurrstellung in eine die Stabilität der Waffenplattform 10 erhöhende Abstützstellung kann die Waffenplattform 10 in einem Vorgang einsatzbereit gemacht werden, so dass sich eine besonders kurze Rüstzeit der Waffenplattform 10 ergibt.In order to transfer the weapon platform 10 to a state of operational readiness, it is necessary, on the one hand, to release the lashing of the weapon 13, so that the weapon 13 can be directed in azimuth and elevation. In addition, it is necessary to support the weapon platform 10 with respect to the ground, so that the recoil forces occurring during firing can be controlled into the ground. In order to keep the resulting setup effort low, the lashing device 16 is formed in the weapon platform 10 according to the invention in a support position transferable. In the support position, the lashing of the weapon 13 is released and the lashing device 16 forms a support of the weapon platform 10 with respect to the ground. The lashing device 16 is so far a double function. By transferring the lashing device 16 from the securing position serving lashing position in a stability of the weapon platform 10 increasing support position, the weapon platform 10 can be made operational in one operation, so that a particularly short setup time of the weapon platform 10 results.

In Umkehrung des Vorgangs kann die Waffenplattform 10 durch Verbringen der Zurrvorrichtung 16 aus der Abstützstellung in die Zurrstellung in einem Schritt transportfertig gemacht werden, so dass es möglich ist, den Standort der Waffenplattform 10 nach erfolgter Schussabgabe schnell zu verlassen.In reversal of the process, the weapon platform 10 can be made ready for transport by moving the lashing device 16 from the support position to the lashing position in one step, so that it is possible to quickly leave the location of the weapon platform 10 after firing.

Zur Überführung der Zurrvorrichtung 16 von der Zurrstellung gemäß Fig. 3 in die in Fig. 2 dargestellte Abstützstellung sind die Arme 17 der Zurrvorrichtung 16 um die beiden parallel zueinander ausgerichteten Schwenkachsen S verschwenkbar ausgebildet.To transfer the lashing device 16 of the lashing according to Fig. 3 in the in Fig. 2 illustrated support position, the arms 17 of the lashing device 16 about the two mutually parallel pivot axes S are formed pivotable.

In der Abstützstellung bilden die Arme 17 Stützen. Hierzu weisen die Arme 17 jeweils einen Stützfuß 21 mit einer plattenförmigen Oberfläche auf, über welche sich der Arm 17 flächig auf dem Untergrund abstützen kann. Darüber hinaus ist an dem Arm 17 eine Treppe 19 vorgesehen, über welche der Zugang zu dem Unterbau 11 der Waffenplattform 10 ermöglicht wird, vgl. Fig. 2.In the support position, the arms form 17 columns. For this purpose, the arms 17 each have a support leg 21 with a plate-shaped surface, via which the arm 17 can be supported on the surface in a planar manner. In addition, a staircase 19 is provided on the arm 17, via which access to the substructure 11 of the weapon platform 10 is made possible, cf. Fig. 2 ,

Zur Überführung der Zurrvorrichtung 16 von der Zurrstellung in die Abstützstellung und umgekehrt ist an den Armen 17 der Zurrvorrichtung 16 jeweils ein Antrieb 20 vorgesehen, über welchen die Arme 17 bewegt werden können. Der Antrieb 20 ist als Hydraulikzylinder ausgebildet, alternativ kann jedoch auch ein Pneumatikzylinder oder ein elektrischer Antrieb 20 Verwendung finden.To transfer the lashing device 16 from the lashing position to the support position and vice versa, a drive 20 is provided on the arms 17 of the lashing device 16, via which the arms 17 can be moved. The drive 20 is designed as a hydraulic cylinder, but alternatively, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric drive 20 can be used.

In der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Abstützstellung sind die Arme 17 im Wesentlichen schräg nach unten gerichtet und liegen auf dem Untergrund auf. Hierbei kann das Fahrzeug 1 je nach Beschaffenheit des Untergrunds leicht angehoben sein, so dass sich die Räder des Fahrzeugs 1 vom Boden abheben und die Waffenplattform 10 nur über die Arme 17 der Zurrvorrichtung 16 sowie eine weitere, am Fahrzeugheck angeordnete Abstützvorrichtung 22 gegenüber dem Untergrund abgestützt wird. Das Fahrzeug 1 wird durch die Zurrvorrichtung 16 und die Abstützvorrichtung 22 gewissermaßen aufgebockt.In the in Fig. 2 shown support position, the arms 17 are directed substantially obliquely downwards and lie on the ground. Here, the vehicle 1 may be slightly raised depending on the nature of the ground, so that the wheels of the vehicle 1 lift off the ground and the weapon platform 10 supported only on the arms 17 of the lashing device 16 and another, arranged at the rear of the vehicle support 22 relative to the ground becomes. The vehicle 1 is to a certain extent jacked up by the lashing device 16 and the supporting device 22.

Die heckseitige Abstützvorrichtung 22 kann nach Art eines Schließelements ausgebildet sein, welches in einer hochgeschwenkten Schließstellung einen heckseitigen Verschluss einer schließbaren Öffnung des gegenüber dem Unterbau 11 drehbar gelagerten Turms 12 bildet. Ein entsprechendes Schließelement ist in der deutschen Patentanmeldung 10 2011 050 537 beschrieben.The rear-side support device 22 may be designed in the manner of a closing element, which in a pivoted closed position, a rear-side closure of a closable opening of the relative to the substructure 11 rotatably mounted tower 12 forms. A corresponding closing element is in the German patent application 10 2011 050 537 described.

In Abwandlung des Ausführungsbeispiels kann die Waffenplattform 10 auch eine als Raketenwerfer ausgebildete Waffe aufweisen. Eine derartige Waffe ist ebenfalls in Azimut und Elevation richtbar gehalten und kann in gleicher Weise wie die Rohrwaffe 13 des vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiels über die Zurrvorrichtung 16 in einer Zurrstellung festgelegt werden.In a modification of the embodiment, the weapon platform 10 may also have a weapon designed as a rocket launcher. Such a weapon is also held in azimuth and elevation directionally and can be set in the same manner as the gun 13 of the embodiment described above on the lashing device 16 in a lashing position.

Das vorstehend beschriebene militärische Fahrzeug 1 weist eine Waffenplattform 10 mit einer Zurrvorrichtung 16 zur Festlegung der richtbaren Waffe 13 der Waffenplattform 10 auf, wobei die Zurrvorrichtung 16 von einer Zurrstellung, in welcher die Waffe 13 durch die Zurrvorrichtung 16 festgelegt ist, in eine Abstützstellung überführbar ist, in welcher die Zurrvorrichtung 16 eine Abstützung des Fahrzeugs 1 und der Waffenplattform 10 gegenüber dem Untergrund bildet. Hierdurch wird der Rüstaufwand bei der Überführung der Waffenplattform 10 von der Transportstellung in eine Einsatzstellung verringert, da das Zurren bzw. Entzurren und das Abstützen bzw. Aufheben der Abstützung gleichzeitig in nur einem Arbeitsschritt erfolgen.The military vehicle 1 described above has a weapons platform 10 with a lashing device 16 for fixing the directional weapon 13 of the weapon platform 10, wherein the lashing device 16 can be transferred from a lashing position, in which the weapon 13 is fixed by the lashing device 16 in a support position in which the lashing device 16 forms a support of the vehicle 1 and the weapon platform 10 with respect to the ground. As a result, the set-up effort is reduced in the transfer of the weapon platform 10 from the transport position to a deployed position, since the lashing or Entzurren and the supporting or canceling the support done simultaneously in only one step.
