Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the rapid and preferably uniform ejection of a large number of weapons, in particular mines, from a weapon barrel with a large diameter.
  • a weapon barrel is understood to be a barrel with a first approximation of a round cross section.
  • Typical weapon tubes are, for example, torpedo tubes or ejection devices for decoys or sonar devices.
  • objects include weapons such as torpedoes, missiles, mines and decoys, but also storage containers.
  • Storage containers in the context of this invention are storage containers such as those used, for example, in submarines for deployment through torpedo tubes. These storage containers are used to transport items of equipment for divers, for example, and, in the event of an emergency, in particular to bring them out of a submarine under water.
  • a weapon is often ejected using compressed air.
  • a weapon for example a torpedo
  • This also enables high acceleration, which is required to accelerate a comparatively heavy torpedo to its ejection speed over the short distance of the weapon barrel.
  • the disadvantage is that this method is comparatively loud.
  • gun barrels that do not have a system for actively ejecting a weapon. The weapon drains from such weapon barrels, that is, the weapon leaves the weapon barrel of its own accord and under its own power. For example, a torpedo can run out of a weapon barrel.
  • a submarine with a weapon barrel and at least one armament magazine is known, the weapon magazine being designed for arrangement in the weapon barrel.
  • the weapons are preferably ejected from the weapon magazine by means of water or compressed air.
  • a weapon ejector device with a push chain which can be inserted into a weapon barrel.
  • the object of the invention is to create a module for a weapon barrel which enables a large number of weapons, in particular mines, to be expelled quickly and preferably evenly from a weapon barrel.
  • the weapon barrel module according to the invention for a weapon barrel has a storage module and an ejection module.
  • the weapon barrel module can be arranged removably in the weapon barrel.
  • the storage module has at least a first storage tube and a second bearing tube.
  • the first storage tube has at least a first first storage position for a weapon and the second storage tube has at least a first second storage position.
  • the first bearing tube and the second bearing tube are arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the weapon barrel module.
  • the discharge module is arranged on the side of the storage module facing the ship's interior. At least the storage module can be rotated about the longitudinal direction of the weapon barrel module.
  • the weapon barrel module can be arranged in the weapon barrel.
  • weapons with a diameter that fit into the first bearing tube or the second bearing tube can be ejected from the weapon barrel.
  • weapons with a significantly larger diameter which corresponds to the diameter of the entire weapon barrel module, can be ejected from the weapon barrel.
  • other larger objects can also be brought into or out of the weapon barrel if the weapon barrel module is not arranged in the weapon barrel.
  • vehicles for divers are mentioned here.
  • the use of the weapon barrel module thus makes it possible to eject weapons with very different diameters from a weapon barrel.
  • several weapons can be ejected from just one weapon barrel.
  • the weapon barrel module can be arranged in the weapon barrel, the weapon barrel has an inside diameter which is larger than the outside diameter of the weapon barrel module.
  • a tube in the sense of the invention is a hollow body, for example and in particular a cylindrical hollow body.
  • a pipe in the sense of the invention does not have to have an independent wall, but the boundary / wall can be formed by the storage module itself. Furthermore, the limitation / wall of the pipe must be in accordance with Invention not be full-surface or continuous. It can also be a lattice structure, for example, or it can be formed from individual bar elements.
  • the ejection module is designed to eject at least one weapon from at least one bearing tube of the bearing module and thus from the weapon barrel. Since the ejection module is thus located inside the weapon barrel, only an energy supply through the pressure-tight weapon barrel is necessary, whereby energy supply here includes the supply of electrical energy as well as in hydraulic or pneumatic form, but also the supply of water or gas into the Ejection module for direct forwarding into a storage tube for targeted ejection of a weapon from this storage tube.
  • the feed is preferably carried out electrically, hydraulically or pneumatically.
  • the ejection module has at least one first push chain and at least one first push chain drive for the first push chain in order to be able to eject weapons by means of the push chain.
  • the weapon barrel module has a rotation module.
  • the rotation module is used to rotate the storage module.
  • the rotation module is preferably arranged on the side of the storage module facing the ship's interior. More preferably, the rotation module is preferably arranged on the side of the ejection module directed towards the interior of the ship, wherein in this embodiment the ejection module and storage module are firmly connected to one another and are rotated together by the rotation module.
  • the rotation module is driven electrically or hydraulically.
  • the ejection module is driven electrically or hydraulically.
  • the rotation module and the ejection module are electrically driven. In a further preferred alternative, the rotation module and the ejection module are driven hydraulically.
  • the storage module has at least one rotation device.
  • the storage module can also have a plurality of rotating devices.
  • the weapon barrel is an oversized weapon barrel, the oversized weapon barrel having a diameter of at least 1066 mm, preferably of at least 1600 mm.
  • a storage tube has a diameter of at least 533 mm, since this corresponds to the standard diameter of many weapons, for example heavy-weight torpedoes and many types of mines.
  • the weapon barrel module is particularly preferably suitable for storing and ejecting mines.
  • the storage module has at least one third storage tube, the first bearing tube, the second bearing tube and the third bearing tube being arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the weapon barrel module.
