Definitions

  • the technical field of the invention is that of mobile turrets for small arms.
  • a small caliber means a caliber of weapon less than or equal to 12.7mm.
  • the turrets of armored vehicles most often include a main armament of large or medium size (from 20 mm to 120 mm). This main armament is usually coupled with secondary armament of small caliber which has a different operational use.
  • Mobile turrets can also equip fixed structures, such as shelters or command posts.
  • the secondary armament is sometimes coaxial with the main armament and can only be pointed at a target by pointing at the main armament. Such a provision is binding and it is most often preferred to set the secondary armament to a cupola which has its own pointing capabilities in site and deposit.
  • This cupola can in some cases be teleoperated from inside the turret.
  • a teleoperated turret of known type is described for example by the EP2306137 .
  • the invention relates to a cupola for a small caliber weapon, a cupola which is secured to a structure such as a turret of an armored vehicle, a cupola having a weapon cradle pivotally mounted relative to a vertical shaft carrying a base for to be secured, by means of first fixing means, a first platform carried by the structure, turret characterized in that the shaft is connected to a fixed vertical pivot by a connecting means allowing movement circular of the shaft about the vertical axis of the pivot and a vertical translation of the base, the base can be secured by means of second fastening means, at least a second platform carried by the structure and disposed at a horizontal plane above that of the first platform.
  • the connecting means may comprise a sleeve pivotally mounted around the vertical pivot, which sleeve is connected to the base by links forming a deformable parallelogram, the deformable parallelogram allowing a vertical translation of the base relative to the socket.
  • the connecting means may comprise two deformable parallelograms mounted symmetrically with respect to a vertical plane passing through the axis of the shaft and the axis of the pivot.
  • the cupola may comprise at least one balancer mounted between the base and the socket.
  • the connecting means may comprise an arm equipped with a bearing surrounding the vertical pivot, bearing comprising fingers cooperating with at least one groove carried by the central pivot, groove having an inclined profile defined so that the pivoting of the arm around the vertical axis also leads to a vertical movement of the arm.
  • the finger or fingers following the grooves may be equipped with rollers.
  • the inclined profile of the grooves may be extended by horizontal grooves that allow limited pivoting of the arm in horizontal planes, allowing positioning of the base on one or other of the platforms.
  • the cupola may comprise means ensuring the positioning and centering of the base with each of the platforms.
  • the cupola may comprise an actuator for controlling the rotational movement of the vertical shaft carrying the base around the vertical axis of the pivot.
  • a cupola 1 is integral with a structure 2 which is here a turret of a shielded vehicle (not shown). Only an upper part 2a of the turret 2 is shown here.
  • the turret comprises a lower part 2b schematized here by a cut block.
  • the lower part 2b may be equipped with a main weapon system (not shown) and will be connected to the vehicle body.
  • the turret 2 will be able to pivot around a pointing axis in bearing 3 which is vertical.
  • the upper part 2a of the turret 2 forms an observation kiosk which is equipped with episcopes 4 angularly distributed about the vertical axis 3.
  • Kiosk 2a carries a hatch 5 (see Figures 3 and 4 ) which allows access inside the turret 2 and allows the exit of an operator for observation missions or to implement the cupola 1.
  • Kiosk 2a also carries a viewfinder 7 of conventional type.
  • the cupola 1 comprises a cradle 8 which receives a weapon 9 of small caliber (12.7 mm for example).
  • the cradle 8 is pivotally mounted with respect to a vertical shaft 10 carrying a base 11.
  • the cradle 8 can thus pivot in alignment with respect to a vertical axis 12 which is that of the shaft 10.
  • the cradle 8 also carries a magazine 9a for the ammunition of the weapon 9.
  • the front portion 8a of the cradle 8 further comprises a magazine for storing shooting residues (bushings and links).
  • the shaft 10 and its base 11 are integral with a substantially horizontal arm 13 and which is equipped at one of its ends with a bearing 14 surrounding a vertical fixed pivot 15.
  • the arm 13 equipped with its bearing 14 constitutes a connection means between the shaft 10 and the fixed vertical pivot 15.
  • This connecting means allows a circular movement of the shaft 10 around a vertical axis 16 of the pivot 15.
  • the base 11 In the first position of the cupola 1, which is visible figures 1 , 3 and 5 , the base 11 is positioned on a first platform 17 carried by the structure 2.
  • the base 11 is also secured to this first platform 17 by means of first fastening means which may comprise one or more screws (not shown) carried by the base 11 and engaged in the first platform 17. It will be provided also means for positioning and centering the base relative to the platform (not shown), for example one or more positioning pins integral with the platform 17 and engaging in holes in the base 11 (or the reverse). Such an arrangement ensures a more precise positioning of the base relative to the platform, which improves the accuracy of the shot.
  • quick-clamping fastening means for example one or more rods integral with the platform 17 and being able to engage by tilting in grooves of the base, the rods carrying an eccentric clamping means which can apply on the base.
  • the rapid clamping means may also be associated with positioning and centering means, such as one or more centering pins.
  • the cupola can also occupy a second position which is visible to figures 2 , 4 and 6 .
  • the base 11 is positioned on a second platform 19 which is carried by the structure 2.
  • the base will be secured to the second platform 19 by means of second attachment means, for example screws (including only one axis 18 is shown), or a rapid clamping means carried by the second platform 19 and engageable in the base 11.
  • It may also be provided at the second platform 19 means for positioning and centering the base relative to the platform (not shown), for example one or more positioning pins secured to the platform 19 and engaging in holes in the base 11 (or vice versa).
  • Such an arrangement allows again to ensure a more accurate positioning of the base relative to the platform, which improves the accuracy of the shot.
  • the two platforms 17 and 19, associated with the fixing means (and the positioning means) of the base on each platform, ensure the stability of the position of the cupola 1 in one or the other position.
  • the second platform 19 is disposed at a horizontal plane which is located above that of the first platform 17.
  • the cupola 1 is in a higher position when positioned on the second platform 19 ( figure 2 ). This position is suitable for a remote operating mode of the cupola.
  • the second platform 19 is disposed above the episcopes 4 of kiosk 2a. The cupola 1 does not interfere with the visibility of the external environment from inside the turret 2.
  • the cupola 1 When the cupola 1 is positioned on the first platform 17 ( figure 1 ), it is seen that the weapon is vertically lower, so it can be operated by an operator leaving his bust by the hatch 5. In addition, the first platform 17 is positioned in front of the hatch 5 (see figure 3 ). When the cupola 1 is attached to the first platform 17, the controls of the weapon are in front of the hatch 5 and the weapon can be easily maneuvered by the operator.
  • the viewfinder 7 is integrated in the center and above the pivot 15.
  • the viewfinder 7 is clear and is not masked by the connecting means of the cupola.
  • the connecting means between the shaft 10 and the pivot 15 comprises the arm 13 equipped with the bearing 14.
  • the pivot 15 comprises at least one groove 20 (here two grooves to balance the forces), having an inclined profile 20a which is defined so that the pivoting of the arm 13 around the vertical axis 16 also leads to a vertical displacement of the arm 13.
  • the inclined profiles 20a of the grooves are for example helical
  • the bearing 14 comprises radial fingers 21 (of which only the outer end is visible in the figures), fingers whose inner end flows in the grooves 20, the engagement of the fingers 21 and grooves 20 guiding the movement of the bearing 14.
  • the inner end of each finger 21 will carry a roller (not shown) which will roll in the groove 20, thereby reducing friction.
  • the inclined groove 20a is extended at its upper end by a horizontal groove 20b and at its lower end by another horizontal groove 20c.
  • FIGS. 7 to 12 show a second embodiment of the invention which differs from the preceding only by the structure of the connection means between the shaft 10 and the pivot 15.
  • the connecting means comprises a bushing 22 which is pivotally mounted around an upper end of the vertical pivot 15.
  • the bushing 22 is connected to the base 11 by rods 23a, 23b (see FIG. figure 11 ) forming at least one deformable parallelogram 24 1 or 24 2 (see figure 10 ).
  • Each link is pivotally mounted by a hinge 25a or 25b on the base 11 and by another hinge 25c or 25d on the bushing 22 ( figure 11 ).
  • the connecting means here comprises two deformable parallelograms 24 1 and 24 2 , a on each side of the base 11. These parallelograms are mounted symmetrically with respect to a vertical plane passing through the axis 12 of the shaft 10 and the axis 16 of the pivot 15.
  • the deformable parallelograms allow vertical translation of the base 11 relative to the bushing 22, and therefore relative to the pivot 15.
  • Balancers 26 (such as gas springs) are attached between the base 11 and the bushing 22 (see FIG. figure 11 ). They reduce the efforts related to the vertical movement of the cupola.
  • the pivoting of the cupola 1 with respect to the axis 16 of the pivot 15 is decorrelated from the vertical translation movement of the base 11. Once the base has been unlocked from a platform 17 or 19, it is therefore possible to translate and / or rotate the cupola in any movement to bring it to the other platform.
  • Such an arrangement facilitates the establishment and locking of the base 11 on one or other of the platforms 17 and 19.
  • the locking means of the base on the platforms are not described in detail. They are similar to those described above (an axis 18 symbolizing a fixing screw is shown in the figures).
  • first platform 17 and the second platform 19 means for positioning and centering the base relative to the platform (not shown).
  • means for positioning and centering the base relative to the platform for example, as described above, provide one or more positioning pins integral with the platform 17 or 19 and engaging in holes in the base 11 (or vice versa).
  • a such an arrangement allows again to ensure a more accurate positioning of the base relative to the platform, which improves the accuracy of the shot.
  • the rotational movement of the vertical shaft 10 carrying the base 11 around the vertical axis 16 of the pivot 15 can be controlled manually by the operator.
  • this movement can be achieved by means of a rotary actuator (such as a jack, not shown) driving the arm 13 (embodiment of the Figures 1 to 6 ) or by a geared motor (not shown) driving the bushing 22 (embodiment of the Figures 7 to 12 ).
  • a rotary actuator such as a jack, not shown
  • a geared motor not shown
