Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen aus einer tragbaren, rückstoßfreien Waffe verschießbaren Leuchtmunitionskörper mit einer Geschosshülse, in der ein Leuchtkörper, ein mit dem Leuchtkörper verbundener Fallschirm und ein Zünder zur Aktivierung einer Ausstoßladung zum Ausstoßen des Leuchtkörpers und des Fallschirmes über einem Zielgebiet aus der Geschosshülse angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a firing from a portable, recoilless gun ammunition body with a bullet casing, in which a luminous body, connected to the luminous body parachute and an igniter for activating a discharge charge for ejecting the filament and the parachute are arranged on a target area of the projectile shell.

US 3 233 545 A offenbart ein Projektil mit einer Geschosshülse, in der ein Fallschirm und ein Zünder zur Aktivierung einer Ausstoßladung zum Ausstoßen des Fallschirmes über einem Zielgebiet aus der Geschosshülse angeordnet sind. Der Fallschirm ist, in Schussrichtung gesehen, innerhalb eines vorderen Hülsenabschnittes der Geschosshülse angeordnet, wobei der Verbindungsbereich zwischen dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt und dem sich heckseitig daran anschließenden Abschnitt der Geschosshülse derart gewählt ist, dass nach Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung der vordere Hülsenabschnitt von dem sich daran anschließenden Abschnitt der Geschosshülse abtrennbar ist, und wobei der Fallschirm aus dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt heckseitig herausgezogen wird. US 3,233,545 A discloses a projectile with a projectile casing in which a parachute and an igniter for activating an ejection charge for ejecting the parachute are arranged above a target area of the projectile casing. The parachute, as viewed in the weft direction, disposed within a front sleeve portion of the projectile shell, wherein the connecting portion between the front sleeve portion and the rear end adjoining portion of the bullet sleeve is selected such that after activation of the ejection charge, the front sleeve portion of the adjoining portion the projectile sleeve is separable, and wherein the parachute is pulled out of the front sleeve portion rear side.

FR 2 679 642 A1 offenbart eine permanente Luftbremse, die durch die eigene Bremswirkung einen Fallschirm in Schussrichtung gesehen heckseitig aus einem vorderen, einen Wirkkörper beinhaltenden Hülsenabschnitt herauszieht. FR 2 679 642 A1 discloses a permanent air brake, the parachute seen in the firing direction by its own braking pulls rear side of a front, an active body-containing sleeve portion.

EP 2 063 215 A2 offenbart einen Leuchtmunitionskörper, wobei eine Ausstoßladung zur Abtrennung eines Hülsenteils samt entfaltbarer Luftbremse zur Entfaltung eines Fallschirmes vorgesehen EP 2 063 215 A2 discloses a luminous ammunition body, wherein a discharge charge for separating a sleeve part together with deployable air brake for deployment of a parachute provided

ist; die Luftbremse ist dabei zur Abbremsung des gesamten Körpers vor der Abtrennung des Munitionskörpers vorgesehen und hat keine Funktion hinsichtlich des Ausstoßens und der Entfaltung des Fallschirmes.is; the air brake is provided to decelerate the entire body prior to the separation of the ammunition body and has no function in terms of ejection and deployment of the parachute.

Bei Leuchtmunition, die aus tragbaren, rückstoßfreien Waffen (reaktive Panzerbüchsen, Panzerfäuste etc.) verschossen wird, befindet sich der Zünder zur Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung üblicherweise, in Schussrichtung gesehen, im vorderen Hülsenabschnitt der Geschosshülse. Hingegen wird der zur Fallgeschwindigkeitsreduzierung des Leuchtkörpers verwendete Fallschirm im heckseitigen Abschnitt der Geschosshülse angeordnet.In light ammunition, which is fired from portable, recoilless weapons (reactive tanks, bazookas, etc.), the detonator for activating the ejection charge is usually, seen in the direction of firing, in the front sleeve section of the projectile shell. By contrast, the parachute used to reduce the falling speed of the luminous body is arranged in the rear-side section of the projectile shell.

Bei der Neuentwicklung von aus rückstoßfreien Waffen verschießbaren Leuchtmunitionskörpern ist es allerdings häufig wünschenswert, den Zünder zur Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung nicht im vorderen, sondern im heckseitigen Abschnitt der Geschosshülle anzuordnen.However, in the new development of firing from recoilless guns ammunition bodies, it is often desirable to arrange the detonator for activating the ejection charge not in the front, but in the rear-side section of the projectile shell.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen aus einer tragbaren, rückstoßfreien Waffe verschießbaren Leuchtmunitionskörper zu offenbaren, ohne dass dadurch der Ausstoß- und Entfaltungsvorgang des Fallschirmes nach Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung beeinträchtigt wird.The invention is therefore based on the object of disclosing a firing from a portable, recoilless gun ammunition body, without thereby affecting the ejection and deployment process of the parachute after activation of the ejection charge.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung offenbaren die Unteransprüche. Die Erfindung beruht im Wesentlichen auf dem Gedanken, den Fallschirm, in Schussrichtung gesehen, innerhalb eines vorderen Hülsenabschnittes anzuordnen, der bei Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung von dem sich anschließenden Abschnitt der Geschosshülse abtrennbar ist. An dem Leuchtkörper ist umfangseitig eine Luftbremse befestigt, die sich beim Ausstoßen des Leuchtkörpers aus der Geschosshülse entfaltet und diesen gegenüber dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt abbremst, so dass der Fallschirm von dem Leuchtkörper aus dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt heckseitig herausgezogen wird. Der Zünder zur Aktivierung der Ausstoßladung ist dabei heckseitig an der Geschosshülse angeordnet.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further, particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention disclose the dependent claims. Essentially, the invention is based on the idea of arranging the parachute, viewed in the direction of firing, within a front sleeve section which, upon activation of the ejection charge, can be separated from the adjoining section of the projectile sleeve is. On the luminous body, an air brake is fixed on the circumference, which unfolds when ejecting the luminous body from the projectile casing and brakes it relative to the front sleeve section, so that the parachute is pulled out of the luminous body from the front sleeve section on the rear side. The detonator for activating the ejection charge is arranged at the rear of the projectile shell.

Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung handelt es sich bei der Luftbremse um mehrere, gleichmäßig über den Umfang des Leuchtkörpers verteilt angeordnete Lamellen aus Federstahl.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the air brake is a plurality of blades of spring steel arranged uniformly distributed over the circumference of the luminous element.

Vorteilhafterweise ist der vordere Hülsenabschnitt ogivenförmig ausgebildet und weist daher einen relativ großen Bauraum für die Unterbringung des Fallschirmes auf.Advantageously, the front sleeve portion is formed ogivenförmig and therefore has a relatively large space for the accommodation of the parachute.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den folgenden, anhand von Figuren erläuterten Ausführungsbeispielen. Es zeigen:

Further details and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following, with reference to figures explained embodiments. Show it:
Fig. 1
the longitudinal section through a light ammunition according to the invention with a lamp housing located in a bullet casing and
Fig. 2a to 2d
the ejection process of the filament over a target area of the bullet sleeve of in Fig. 1 illustrated ammunition body.

In Fig. 1 ist mit 1 ein Leuchtmunitionskörper bezeichnet, der sich vorderseitig an ein nicht dargestelltes Antriebsteil einer aus einer Panzerfaust verschießbaren Munition anschließt.In Fig. 1 1 is a luminous ammunition body, which adjoins the front side of an unillustrated drive part of a firing from a bazooka ammunition.

Der Leuchtmunitionskörper 1 umfasst eine Geschosshülse 2, in der ein Leuchtkörper 3 (mit Leuchtsatz), ein mit dem Leuchtkörper 3 über Seile 4 verbundener Fallschirm 5 sowie ein Zeitzünder 6 zur Aktivierung einer Ausstoßladung 7 angeordnet sind.The illuminated ammunition body 1 comprises a projectile casing 2 in which a luminous element 3 (with flare), a parachute 5 connected to the luminous element 3 via cables 4 and a time fuse 6 for activating an ejection charge 7 are arranged.

Dabei ist der Zeitzünder 6, in Schussrichtung gesehen, innerhalb eines heckseitigen Abschnittes der Geschosshülse 2 angeordnet.In this case, the time fuse 6, viewed in the weft direction, is arranged within a rear-side section of the projectile casing 2.

Der Fallschirm 5 ist innerhalb eines ogivenförmigen, vorderen Hülsenabschnittes 8 der Geschosshülse 2 angeordnet, wobei der Verbindungsbereich zwischen dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt 8 und dem sich heckseitig daran anschließenden Abschnitt der Geschosshülse 2 mit Sollbruchstellen 9 versehen ist.The parachute 5 is disposed within an ogive-shaped, front sleeve portion 8 of the projectile sleeve 2, wherein the connecting portion between the front Sleeve section 8 and the rear side adjoining section of the projectile sleeve 2 is provided with predetermined breaking points 9.

An dem Leuchtkörper 3 ist umfangseitig eine Luftbremse 10 befestigt, die aus mehreren, gleichmäßig über den Umfang des Leuchtkörpers 3 verteilt angeordneten, vorgespannten Lamellen 11 aus Federstahl besteht. Dabei sind die Lamellen 11 jeweils mit ihrem hinteren Ende an dem Leuchtkörper 3 befestigt und stützen sich mit ihrem vorderen Ende an der Innenwand der Geschosshülse 2 ab.On the luminous element 3, an air brake 10 is fixed on the circumference, which consists of several, uniformly distributed over the circumference of the filament 3 arranged, prestressed fins 11 made of spring steel. In this case, the lamellae 11 are each fastened with their rear end to the luminous element 3 and are supported by their front end against the inner wall of the projectile casing 2.

Nachfolgend wird auf die Wirkungsweise des Leuchtmunitionskörpers mit Hilfe der Figuren 2a bis 2d eingegangen:

  • Nach Ablauf der vorprogrammierten Zeit zündet der Zeitzünder 6 die Ausstoßladung 7. Durch die heißen Gase (Schwaden) der Ausstoßladung 7 wird dann der in dem Leuchtkörper 3 befindliche Leuchtsatz (nicht dargestellt) entzündet.
The following is on the operation of the ampoule body with the help of FIGS. 2a to 2d received:
  • After expiration of the preprogrammed time, the time fuse 6 ignites the ejection charge 7. The hot gases (swaths) of the ejection charge 7 then ignite the flare (not shown) located in the illuminant 3.

Außerdem wird aufgrund des hohen Gasdruckes der den Fallschirm 5 enthaltende vordere Hülsenabschnitt 8 von der restlichen Geschosshülse 2 abgetrennt (Fig. 2a) und der Leuchtkörper 3 ausgestoßen (Fig. 2b).In addition, due to the high gas pressure of the parachute 5 containing front sleeve section 8 is separated from the remaining projectile casing 2 ( Fig. 2a ) and the luminous body 3 ejected ( Fig. 2b ).

Bei dem Ausstoßen des Leuchtkörpers 3 aus der Geschosshülse 2 entfaltet sich die Luftbremse 10, indem die vorgespannten Lamellen 11 nach Außen klappen. Der Luftwiderstand des Leuchtkörpers 3 erhöht sich durch diesen Vorgang schlagartig, so dass der mit dem Leuchtkörper 3 über die Seile 4 verbundene Fallschirm 5 aus dem vorderen Hülsenabschnitt 8 heckseitig herausgezogen wird (Fig. 2c) und sich der Fallschirm 5 anschließend öffnen kann (Fig. 2d).When ejecting the luminous element 3 from the projectile casing 2, the air brake 10 unfolds by the prestressed fins 11 flapping outwards. The air resistance of the luminous element 3 increases abruptly as a result of this process, so that the parachute 5 connected to the luminous element 3 via the cables 4 is pulled out of the front sleeve section 8 at the rear ( Fig. 2c ) and the parachute 5 can then open ( Fig. 2d ).
