Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lifting device for a submarine.
  • Submarines are known to be built as compact as possible and compact. As a result, there is usually no or little storage space left within the submarine that can be used to carry loads. In particular, the entrained loads are limited in size, for example, by the size of the access to the interior of the submarine or by the size of hatches inside the submarine. Thus, comparatively large payloads, such as unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV) or pressure-resistant storage containers, can not be carried in a simple and streamlined manner. Although it is known to attach such payloads, for example, to the outer shell of the submarine, this significantly adversely affects the driving profile and the flow characteristics of the submarine.
  • UUV unmanned underwater vehicles
  • pressure-resistant storage containers can not be carried in a simple and streamlined manner.
  • the present invention solves the problem by a lifting device for a submarine for carrying a payload along a lifting direction,
  • the lifting device comprises a first guide element, a second guide element, a first lifting element and a second lifting element, wherein the first lifting element is slidably mounted on the first guide element along the stroke direction and
  • the lifting device according to the invention has the advantage of being designed comparatively space-saving while being able to lift very large loads.
  • the fact that the first lifting element is displaceable in the stroke direction and that the force acts in the stroke direction contributes in particular to this.
  • a linear application movement is made possible, which allows the lifting device as possible to take space-saving in the submarine.
  • the payload in a stowage position of the lifting device, is located within the submarine, preferably within an upper deck of the submarine, while the payload in a use position of the lifting device outside the submarine, especially in an open water area, is arranged.
  • the payload is indirectly or directly connected to the first lifting element and the lifting device is transferred via the force caused by the displacement of the first lifting element relative to the first guide element between the use position and the stowage position.
  • the force means in the transfer between the use position and the stowed position its shape or form, in particular its extending in the stroke direction expansion changes.
  • the cylinder piston is extended in the use position and retracted in the stowed position.
  • the power means comprises a spindle, a joint system and / or an electric motor.
  • the stroke direction is substantially perpendicular to an extension of an outer skin of the submarine or the outer lining.
  • the force means and the further force means during the transfer of the payload between the stowed position and the use position are synchronized in their movement. As a result, it is possible to ensure that a deadweight of the payload can be evenly distributed to at least one first and at least one second lifting element when conveying.
  • the force means and / or the further force means is a lifting cylinder, in particular a hydraulic lifting cylinder.
  • the lifting device for synchronization comprises a control device and / or a displacement measuring system.
  • a control loop can be formed which advantageously ensures a regulated lifting of the load.
  • the lifting device comprises a magnetostrictive measuring system as path measuring system, which is particularly preferably embedded in the lifting cylinder and / or the further lifting cylinder.
  • the lifting device preferably comprises a control device.
  • the measured data acquired by the respective path measuring system are forwarded to the control device, which in turn individually controls the individual hydraulic lifting cylinders on the basis of the acquired measuring data.
  • the control device which in turn individually controls the individual hydraulic lifting cylinders on the basis of the acquired measuring data.
  • the first guide element comprises two opposite guide rails, wherein between the two opposite guide rails, a first lifting element is arranged in the form of a lifting frame. Furthermore, it is provided that a sliding element is arranged between the first lifting element and the first guide element in order to advantageously reduce a possible frictional resistance between the first lifting element and the first guide element. It is also conceivable that the sliding element is attached to and / or in a carriage body, which in turn is articulated about a bolt pivotally mounted on the first lifting element.
  • the carriage body is designed such that it bears against running surfaces of the first guide element, in particular on a running surface of one of the guide rails, and thereby transmits the resulting guide forces.
  • the carriage body In a load acting on the rigidly connected to the carriage body boom, the carriage body can rotate in the context of its guide clearance about an axis of rotation predetermined by the bolt. Due to the resulting concerns of the sliding elements on the guide rail, the first lifting element is guided in an advantageous manner.
  • the first guide element grips the first lifting element on both sides. To this The first guide element can advantageously ensure that the first lifting element is displaceable along the stroke direction and counteracts tilting of the first lifting element.
  • the first lifting element has a bracket-like arm for receiving a support element, in particular a support element made of steel.
  • the payload is arranged on the support element.
  • the payload is reversibly attached to the support element via fixing aids.
  • the support element forms a limitation for a storage volume provided by the lifting device.

  • the support element is detachably connected to the boom.
  • the boom and the support member are releasably connected to each other via a bolt connection.
  • a payload is mounted on the support element.
  • the entire support element can be exchanged quickly for another support element with another payload, preferably preassembled by the manufacturer and / or at the port or depot, if the mission-specific requirements make it necessary.

  • the structural part is preferably the pressure hull of the submarine.
  • the power means is articulated to the support frame, for example via a universal joint or a ball socket joint.
  • the force means is arranged on the end face of the first lifting element facing away from the supporting frame. It is conceivable that the power means is articulated to the first lifting element, for example via a universal joint or a ball socket joint. This results in a particularly advantageous force curve when moving the first lifting element with the power means.
  • the first guide element has stiffeners.
  • the first guide element is advantageously stabilized or strengthened in relation to the forces occurring during the actuation of the lifting device.
  • the support element is fixed in the stowage position by means of a locking device, in particular by means of a passive locking device on the support frame.
  • the locking device preferably comprises a first locking element, for example a bush, on the carrier frame side, and a second locking element, for example a locking pin, on the carrier side.
  • the first locking element and the second locking element are designed to be complementary.
  • the support frame and the support element in the stowed position abut each other and engage the first and the second connecting element for locking the lifting device. This provides advantageously for a compact and stable arrangement in the stowed position, which protects the lifting device against damage, especially in rough seas, which would otherwise be caused by occurring in case of shock longitudinal and tangential forces, especially force peaks.
  • the lifting device comprises an outer lining moving along with the first lifting elements, wherein the outer lining is preferably connected to the first lifting element via an elastic connecting element.
