Description

BESCHREIBUNG  DESCRIPTION
Adaptiver Wurfkörper Adaptive projectile
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen adaptiven Wurfkörper, beispielsweise für Nebelwurfkörper. Solche Wurfkörper werden häufig über entsprechende Werfer zum Ausbringen von Effektladungen von Fahrzeugen oder stationären Vorrichtungen verwendet. The present invention relates to an adaptive projectile, for example for smoke projectiles. Such projectiles are often used via appropriate launchers for deploying effect loads of vehicles or stationary devices.
Solche Wurfkörper bestehen zumeist aus einem Gehäuse und einem innenliegenden Effektkörper, welcher geworfen wird und die entsprechende Effektladung ausbringen kann. Dazu wird der Wurfkörper auf einem entsprechenden Werfer montiert, wobei wichtig ist, dass der Wurfkörper im montierten Zustand auf dem Werfer möglichst wenig Bewegungsfreiheiten besitz, um beim Ausbringen des Wurfkörpers keine Bewegung auszuführen, damit der Wurfkörper zielgenau ausgebracht werden kann. Such projectiles usually consist of a housing and an internal effect body, which is thrown and can deploy the corresponding effect charge. For this purpose, the throwing body is mounted on a corresponding launcher, wherein it is important that the throwing body in the assembled state on the launcher possesses as little freedom of movement to perform when deploying the throwing body no movement so that the throwing body can be applied accurately.
Ein entsprechender Wurfkörper ist in der DE 10 2013 108 822 B4 gezeigt. Hierbei wird ein Wurfkörper über ein Gehäuse an der .... befestigt wird. Diese Befestigung muss lösbar gestaltet sein und kann durch Form- oder Kraftschluss geschehen oder auch durch Schrauben oder Stecken sowie durch einen Bajonettverschluss. A corresponding projectile is shown in DE 10 2013 108 822 B4. Here, a projectile is attached to a housing on the .... This attachment must be designed detachable and can be done by positive or non-positive or by screwing or plugging and by a bayonet lock.
Solche Abwurfkörper können jedoch unterschiedliche Kaliber aufweisen, da es verschiedene Hersteller gibt, die solche Wurfkörper fertigen und in verschiedenen Ländern eigene bzw. unterschiedliche Werfersysteme existieren. So wird bislang so verfahren, dass für jedes dieser Werfer ein entsprechender Wurfkörper mit entsprechendem Kaliber existiert. So ist es mit dem bisherigen Wurfkörper aus dem Stand der Technik nicht möglich, verschiedene Werfersysteme mit unterschiedlichen Kalibern mit einem universellen Wurfkörper zu bestücken. However, such ejection bodies can have different calibers, since there are different manufacturers who produce such projectiles and exist in different countries own or different Werfersysteme. So far, the procedure is such that for each of these launcher a corresponding projectile with a corresponding caliber exists. So it is not possible with the previous projectile from the prior art to equip different Werfer systems with different calibers with a universal projectile.
Diese Aufgabe stellt sich die vorliegende Erfindung nämlich einen adaptiven Wurfkörper bereitzustellen, welcher auf die verschiedenen Werfersysteme, insbesondere auf die verschiedenen Kaliber der einzelnen Werfersysteme angepasst werden kann. Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs gelöst. Vorgeschlagen wird ein Wurfkörper mit einem Gehäuse welches Führungsfinnen aufweist. Diese Führungsfinnen sind am Umfang des Gehäuses angebracht und erstrecken sich in axialer Richtung. Diese Führungsfinnen bilden dann den Außenradius beim Einbringen des Wurfkörpers in einen entsprechenden Werfer. This is an object of the present invention to provide an adaptive projectile, which can be adapted to the different Werdersysteme, in particular to the different calibers of the individual Werferysteme. This object is achieved with the features of the main claim. Proposed is a projectile with a housing which has guide fins. These guide fins are mounted on the circumference of the housing and extend in the axial direction. These guide fins then form the outer radius when introducing the throwing body into a corresponding thrower.
Das Gehäuse besitzt einen Hohlraum zur Aufnahme einer inneren Hülle, dazu ist das Gehäuse wie ein Hohlzylinder gestaltet und der Innenraum des Hohlzylinders ist der Hohlraum zur Aufnahme der inneren Hülle. Die innere Hülle wiederum wird mit mindestens einer pyrotechnischen Wirkladung versehen. Hierzu sind mehrere Wirkladungen denkbar, insbesondere Nebel erzeugende Ladungen. Es sind aber auch weitere optische Ladungen denkbar, wie zum Beispiel Ladungen zur Ausbringung von infrarot Partikeln oder akustische Ladungen zur Erzeugung eines Knalleffekts. Da mindestens eine pyrotechnische Wirkladung vorgesehen ist, können auch mehrere dieser Ladungen kombiniert werden. The housing has a cavity for receiving an inner shell, to the housing is designed as a hollow cylinder and the interior of the hollow cylinder is the cavity for receiving the inner shell. The inner shell in turn is provided with at least one pyrotechnic active charge. For this purpose, several effective charges are conceivable, in particular mist-generating charges. But there are also other optical charges conceivable, such as charges for the application of infrared particles or acoustic charges to produce a bang. Since at least one pyrotechnic active charge is provided, several of these charges can be combined.
Der Wurfkörper besitzt weiterhin eine Pulverkammer, welche eine Treibladung für den Wurfkörper bereitstellt. Diese Treibladung erzeugt bei Zündung den entsprechenden Druck, um den Wurfkörper aus dem Werfer herauszuwerfen. Die Pulverkammer kann dazu variabel befüllt werden, nämlich mit variablen Pulvermengen oder auch mit einer entsprechenden Materialzusammensetzung des Pulvers. Hierdurch kann der gewünschte Druck der erzeugt wird, beim Werfen des Wurfkörpers beliebig eingestellt werden. The throwing body further has a powder chamber which provides a propellant charge for the throwing body. This propellant generates the appropriate pressure when ignited to eject the projectile from the launcher. The powder chamber can be filled to variable, namely with variable amounts of powder or with a corresponding material composition of the powder. In this way, the desired pressure is generated, are set arbitrarily when throwing the throwing body.
Ebenfalls weist der Wurfkörper einen Verzögerungssatz auf, welcher die Wirkladung bzw. die Wirkladungen zünden kann. Dazu ist es möglich, dass der Verzögerungssatz die Wirkladung direkt zündet oder das ein Zündkanal vorgesehen ist, der die Wirkladung durch Abbrand initiiert. In beiden Fällen sind die verschiedenen Wirkladungen in Längsebene nacheinander in der Hülle des Wurfkörpers angeordnet. Eine einzelne Wirkladung kann dabei auch geschichtet angeordnet sein. Also, the throwing body on a delay set, which can ignite the active charge or the active charges. For this purpose, it is possible that the delay set directly ignites the active charge or that an ignition channel is provided, which initiates the effective charge by combustion. In both cases, the various active charges in the longitudinal plane are successively arranged in the shell of the projectile. A single effective charge can also be arranged in layers.
Weiterhin besitzt der Wurfkörper einen Kontakt, mittels welchem die Treibladung in der Pulverkammer initiiert werden kann, sowie auch der Verzögerungssatz initiiert werden kann. Der Kontakt sorgt somit für eine Zündung von Wirkladung und Verzögerungssatz. Furthermore, the projectile has a contact by means of which the propellant charge can be initiated in the powder chamber, as well as the delay set can be initiated. The contact thus ensures an ignition of active charge and delay set.
Der Kontakt ist so angebracht, dass bei Einbringen des Wurfkörpers in einen entsprechenden Werfer der Kontakt mit einer entsprechenden Zündeinrichtung in Wirkverbindung steht. Der Kontakt kann hierzu als Zündplättchen oder als elektrischer Kontakt ausgebildet sein. Zum Einbringen in verschiedene Werfer mit unterschiedlichem Kaliber besitzt das Gehäuse eine Aufnahmemöglichkeit für einen Ausgleichsring. Die Aufnahmemöglichkeit für einen solchen Ausgleichsring ist ebenfalls am Umfang des Gehäuses vorgesehen, wobei hierzu die Führungsfinnen nicht über die gesamte Länge des Gehäuses an diesem angeordnet sind. Vielmehr ist es so, dass die Führungsfinnen am Gehäuse werferseitig angebracht sind. Dadurch, dass sie nicht durchgehend am Gehäuse angebracht sind, entsteht am gegenüberliegenden Ende des Gehäuses ein Bereich oder Führungsfinnen und stellt damit die Aufnahmemöglichkeit des Ausgleichsrings dar. The contact is arranged so that when introducing the throwing body into a corresponding thrower, the contact is in operative connection with a corresponding ignition device. The contact can be designed for this purpose as an ignition plate or as an electrical contact. For insertion into different launchers with different caliber housing has a recording option for a compensation ring. The possibility of receiving such a compensation ring is also provided on the circumference of the housing, for which purpose the guide fins are not arranged over the entire length of the housing at this. Rather, it is so that the guide fins are mounted on the housing thrower side. The fact that they are not continuously attached to the housing, arises at the opposite end of the housing, an area or Führungsfinnen and thus represents the possibility of receiving the balance ring.
Der Ausgleichsring wird am Gehäuse in der dafür vorgesehenen Aufnahmemöglichkeit angebracht, vorzugsweise durch Presspassung. Denkbar sind auch Kleben oder Schrauben des Ausgleichringes. Der Ausgleichsring sorgt dafür, dass wenn der Wurfkörper ein kleineres Kaliber hat als der Werfer, dass dieser Kaliberunterschied mit dem Ausgleichsring ausgeglichen wird und somit zumindest im Bereich des Ausgleichringes der Wurf körper auf das erforderliche Kaliber des Werfers erweitert ist. The balancing ring is attached to the housing in the receptacle provided for this purpose, preferably by interference fit. It is also conceivable gluing or screwing the balancing ring. The balance ring ensures that if the throwing body has a smaller caliber than the launcher that this caliber difference is compensated with the compensation ring and thus at least in the area of the balance ring of the litter body is extended to the required caliber of the thrower.
Zum Einbringen des Wurfkörpers in den entsprechenden Werfer sind mehrere Möglichkeiten für den adaptiven Wurfkörper möglich. So weist das Gehäuse Bolzenaufnahmen auf, in welche Bolzen eingeschraubt werden können, die für Werfer fungieren, in welchen der Wurfkörper eingeschraubt wird, beziehungsweise mittels Bajonettverschluss eingebracht wird. For introducing the throwing body into the appropriate thrower several possibilities for the adaptive throwing body are possible. Thus, the housing has bolt receptacles, in which bolts can be screwed, which act for pitchers, in which the throwing body is screwed, or is introduced by means of bayonet closure.
Weiterhin besitzt der erfindungsgemäße Wurfkörper eine umlaufende Haltenut, bevorzugterweise nahe des Endes des Gehäuses des Wurfkörpers an welchem sich der Kontakt befindet. Über diese Haltenut kann der Wurfkörper in Werfer eingebracht werden, die über eine entsprechende Haltefeder verfügen. Furthermore, the projectile according to the invention has a circumferential retaining groove, preferably near the end of the housing of the projectile body to which the contact is located. About this holding the throwing body can be introduced into launcher, which have a corresponding retaining spring.
Zuletzt weist der erfindungsgemäße Wurfkörper zum Kontakt hin eine Verjüngung auf, sodass durch diese Verjüngung eine Schulter geschaffen wird. Diese Schulter wird durch die Anbringung der Führungsfinnen an dem Gehäuse verstärkt. Bei Werfersystemen mit entsprechenden Gegenfederungen können diese Federn dann sich an dieser Schulter abstützen und somit den Halt des Wurfkörpers gewährleisten. Finally, the projectile according to the invention for contact on a taper, so that a shoulder is created by this taper. This shoulder is reinforced by the attachment of the guide fins to the housing. In Werfersystemen with corresponding counter-springing these springs can then be supported on this shoulder and thus ensure the support of the throwing body.
Bei Systemen ohne Einschraubung des Wurfkörpers, beziehungsweise ohne Bajonettverschluss, werden erfindungsgemäß die Bolzen nicht in die dafür vorgesehenen Bolzenaufnahmen geschraubt, um einer Aufnahme über Ringfedern und/oder Haltefedern, die sich an der Schulter abstützen, nicht hinderlich zu sein. Die Führungsfinnen sind nicht vollumfänglich am Gehäuse des Wurfkörpers angebracht, sondern lediglich bereichsweise, sodass mehrere Führungsfinnen vorliegen. Dadurch ergeben sich zwischen den einzelnen Führungsfinnen Ausnehmungen, die bei Ausbringung des Wurfkörpers als Druckentlastung wirken. Überschüssiger Druck kann durch diese Ausnehmungen entweichen. Durch die Ausgestaltung der Ausnehmung, nämlich in Tiefe und Breite, kann die Druckentlastung ebenfalls je nach Anwendungsfall eingestellt werden. In systems without screwing the throwing body, or without a bayonet lock, according to the invention, the bolts are not screwed into the bolt receptacles provided for this, in order not to be a hindrance to receiving via ring springs and / or retaining springs which rest on the shoulder. The guide fins are not fully attached to the housing of the projectile, but only partially, so there are several leaders. This results in recesses between the individual guide fins, which act as a release of pressure when the throwing body is deployed. Excess pressure can escape through these recesses. Due to the configuration of the recess, namely in depth and width, the pressure relief can also be adjusted depending on the application.
Durch die verschiedenen Kontaktierungsmöglichkeiten in den verschiedenen Werfern ergibt sich vorteilhafterweise eine universelle Kontaktierung verschiedener Werfersysteme. Diese ergibt sich dadurch, dass nicht nur die unterschiedlichen Halterungen, wie oben beschrieben, realisiert sind, sondern auch diese gemeinsam kontaktiert werden können. Dazu ist es vorteilhafterweise in einer Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass der Kontakt positionsverschiebbar angeordnet ist. Hierdurch kann der Kontakt auch auf ein spezielles Werfersystem eingestellt werden. Due to the different contacting possibilities in the various throwers advantageously results in a universal contacting different Werfersysteme. This results from the fact that not only the different brackets, as described above, are realized, but also these can be contacted together. For this purpose, it is advantageously provided in an embodiment that the contact is arranged positionally displaceable. As a result, the contact can also be set to a special Werfersystem.
Die innere Hülle mit den Wirkladungen ist verschiebbar im Gehäuse angeordnet und zwar längsverschiebbar. Bei Initiierung des Kontaktes und somit Initiierung der Pulverkammer wird die innere Hülle aus dem Gehäuse ausgestoßen. Durch den ebenfalls initiierten Verzögerungssatz fliegt der Wurfkörper erst eine Weile auf seiner Wurfbahn, bevor dann die Wirkladungen gezündet und entsprechend ausgebracht werden. The inner shell with the active charges is slidably disposed in the housing and although longitudinally displaceable. Upon initiation of the contact and thus initiation of the powder chamber, the inner shell is expelled from the housing. Due to the also initiated delay set the projectile flies only a while on its trajectory, before then the active charges ignited and deployed accordingly.
Bevorzugterweise ist das dem Kontakt beziehungsweise Verzögerungssatz gegenüberliegende Ende der inneren Hülle mit einem Deckel verschlossen. Dadurch ist es nach Einbringung der Wirkladungen möglich, die Hülle zu verschließen. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird die Befestigung des Deckels an der inneren Hülle elastisch gestaltet, um eine Shock- Absorberfunktion zum Schutz des Wurfkörpers zu gewährleisten. Sollte eine Kraft auf den Wurfkörper einwirken, insbesondere auf den Deckel, wird diese Kraft durch die Elastizität der Befestigung des Deckels aufgenommen und zumindest teilweise absorbiert. Dadurch ist der Wurfkörper geschützt, insbesondere gegenüber Fremdauslösung. Preferably, the contact or delay set opposite end of the inner shell is closed with a lid. This makes it possible after introducing the active charges to close the shell. In a preferred embodiment, the attachment of the lid to the inner shell is made resilient to provide a shock absorber function to protect the projectile. If a force acts on the projectile, in particular on the cover, this force is absorbed by the elasticity of the attachment of the lid and at least partially absorbed. As a result, the throwing body is protected, in particular against external triggering.
Die Verdämmung des Wurfkörpers, welche für den Abschuss aus einem Werfer notwendig ist, geschieht in der vorliegenden Erfindung dadurch, dass die innere Hülle über eine Abscherkante mit dem Gehäuse befestigt ist. Diese Abscherkante kann bei Einbringung der Hülle in das Gehäuse eingerastet werden und stellt eine Sollbruchstelle bereit, die bei entsprechender axial auf die Hülle wirkenden Kraft bricht und damit die Bewegung der Hülle freisetzt. Die Verdämmung funktioniert dann dadurch, dass sich nach Initiierung des Pulvers in der Pulverkammer ein Druck aufbaut, welcher in axialer Richtung auf die Hülle wirkt. Erst wenn dieser Druck groß genug ist, bricht die Abscherkante als Sollbruchstelle und gibt die Bewegung der inneren Hülle frei. The damming of the projectile, which is necessary for launching from a launcher, is done in the present invention in that the inner shell is attached via a shearing edge to the housing. This shearing edge can be snapped into the housing upon insertion of the shell and provides a predetermined breaking point, which breaks with a corresponding axial force acting on the shell and thus releases the movement of the shell. The damming then works by establishing a pressure in the powder chamber after initiation of the powder, which pressure acts in the axial direction on the casing. Only when this pressure is large enough, the shearing edge breaks as a predetermined breaking point and releases the movement of the inner shell.
Die benötigte axiale Kraft, die zum Bersten der Sollbruchstelle führen soll, kann durch Material beziehungsweise Wandstärke des Materials je nach Bedarf eingestellt werden, sodass unterschiedlich starke Verdammungen gewährleistet werden. The required axial force, which should lead to rupture of the predetermined breaking point, can be adjusted by material or wall thickness of the material as needed, so that different degrees dams are guaranteed.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform weist das Verzögerungselement einen Anzündschutz auf. Dieser gewährleistet, dass das Verzögerungselement nur dann initiiert wird, wenn ein entsprechendes Signal über den Kontakt übertragen wurde. Bei Fehlsignalen und/oder anderen ungewollten Einwirkungen auf den Wurfkörper wird dadurch eine Zündung verhindert. In a particular embodiment, the delay element has an ignition protection. This ensures that the delay element is only initiated when a corresponding signal has been transmitted via the contact. In case of false signals and / or other unwanted effects on the projectile thereby ignition is prevented.
Die innere Hülle und/oder das Gehäuse können einstöckig ausgestaltet sein, um eine Fertigung zu erleichtern. Dadurch ist es möglich, verschiedene Arten von Werfersystemen mit immer dem gleichen Wurfkörper zu bestücken ungeachtet des Kalibers oder der Kontaktierung. The inner shell and / or the housing may be integrally configured to facilitate manufacture. This makes it possible to equip different types of launcher systems with always the same projectile regardless of the caliber or the contact.
Weitere Merkmale ergeben sich aus den beigefügten Zeichnungen. Further features will become apparent from the accompanying drawings.

In Fig. 1 ist die perspektivische Darstellung eines erfindungsgemäßen Wurfkörpers zu erkennen. Der Wurfkörper besitzt ein Gehäuse, welches Führungsfinnen 2 aufweist. Zwischen den Führungsfinnen 2 sind Ausnehmungen die als Druckentlastung 1 wirken. In Fig. 1, the perspective view of a projectile according to the invention can be seen. The throwing body has a housing which has guide fins 2. Between the guide fins 2 are recesses which act as pressure relief 1.
Der Wurfkörper ist nahezu zylinderförmig ausgeführt, wobei die Seite mit welcher der Wurfkörper in einen dafür vorgesehenen Werfer eingebracht wird, mit einem verjüngten Zylinderbereich ausgestattet ist. Durch diesen verjüngten Zylinderbereich entsteht eine Schulter 8. Mittels dieser Schulter 8 kann eine entsprechende Feder eines Werfersystems an dieser Schulter 8 angreifen und den Wurfkörper stabilisieren. The throwing body is designed almost cylindrical, wherein the side with which the throwing body is placed in a designated launcher, is equipped with a tapered cylinder area. By means of this tapered cylinder region, a shoulder 8 is created. By means of this shoulder 8, a corresponding spring of a launcher system can engage this shoulder 8 and stabilize the litter body.
An dem verjüngten Teil des Wurfkörpers ist eine Kontakt 3 vorgesehen, mittels welcher der Wurfkörper gezündet werden kann. Dieser Kontakt 3 initiiert dann das Pulver in der in Fig. 1 nicht gezeigten Pulverkammer, sowie auch den ebenfalls nicht gezeigten Verzögerungssatz, der dann die Wirkladungen zündet. At the tapered part of the throwing body, a contact 3 is provided, by means of which the throwing body can be ignited. This contact 3 then initiates the powder in the powder chamber, not shown in Fig. 1, as well as the delay set also not shown, which then ignites the active charges.
Im verjüngten Bereich sind radial angebrachte Bolzenaufnahmen 5 zu erkennen, in welche entsprechende Verriegelungsbolzen eingebracht werden können. Diese Einbringung der Verriegelungsbolzen geschieht durch Verschrauben oder Einstecken. Hierbei können Rastverbindungen vorgesehen sein. In the tapered area radially mounted bolt receivers 5 can be seen, in which corresponding locking bolts can be introduced. This introduction of the locking bolt is done by screwing or plugging. This locking connections can be provided.
Weiterhin weist der verjüngte Bereich des Wurfkörpers eine umlaufende Haltenut 4 auf, in welchen ebenfalls eine Haltevorrichtung eines entsprechenden Werfers in Form einer Ringfeder eingreifen kann. Furthermore, the tapered portion of the throwing body on a circumferential retaining groove 4, in which also a holding device of a corresponding thrower in the form of a ring spring can engage.
Die gegenüberliegende Seite vom Kontakt 3 aus gesehen des erfindungsgemäßen Wurfkörpers ist mit einem Deckel 10 verschlossen. Dieser Deckel 10 wird nach Einbringung der Wirkladungen in den Wurfkörper angebracht, um dem Wurfkörper beziehungsweise die innere Hülle des Wurfkörpers zu verschließen. The opposite side of the contact 3 from the throwing body according to the invention is closed with a lid 10. This cover 10 is mounted after introduction of the effective charges in the throwing body to close the throwing body or the inner shell of the throwing body.
Fig. 2 zeigt einen Schnitt durch die perspektivische Darstellung der Fig. 1 , wobei nun auch die Einbringung der Wirkladungen 1 1 , 12 zu erkennen ist. Die Wirkladung 12 ist dabei geschichtet dargestellt und beide Wirkladungen werden über den Verzögerungssatz 13 gezündet. Dieser wird wiederum vom Kontakt 3 aus initiiert. Der Deckel 10 ist so auf den Wurfkörper beziehungsweise die innere Hülle aufgebracht, dass eine Shock- Absorbierung 17 gewährleistet wird. Dazu ist der Deckel 10 beziehungsweise die Befestigung des Deckels 10 elastisch ausgeführt. Wird nun ein Fremddruck auf den Wurfkörper ausgeübt, wird dieser durch die elastische Verbindung des Deckels absorbiert und schützt somit den Wurfkörper. Fig. 2 shows a section through the perspective view of Fig. 1, wherein now also the introduction of the active charges 1 1, 12 can be seen. The active charge 12 is shown layered and both active charges are ignited via the delay set 13. This is in turn initiated by contact 3. The cover 10 is applied to the projectile or the inner shell, that a shock absorption 17 is ensured. For this purpose, the lid 10 and the attachment of the lid 10 is made elastic. Now, if a foreign pressure is exerted on the throwing body, this is absorbed by the elastic connection of the lid and thus protects the projectile.
In Fig.3 ist die Nahaufnahme des verjüngen Bereichs des erfindungsgemäßen Wurfkörpers zu erkennen und somit nun auch die Pulverkammer 15. Dieser wird vom Kontakt 3 initiiert und baut einen Druck in der Pulverkammer 15 durch den Abbrand des Pulvers auf. In Figure 3, the close-up of the tapered portion of the projectile according to the invention can be seen and thus now the powder chamber 15. This is initiated by the contact 3 and builds up a pressure in the powder chamber 15 by the burning of the powder.
In den Wurfkörper eingebracht ist eine innere Hülle, welche mittels einer Abscherkante 14 in das Gehäuse des Wurfkörpers eingerastet ist. Diese Abscherkante 14 wirkt als Verdämmung des Wurfkörpers und sorgt dafür, dass eine Sollbruchstelle generiert wird. Wird durch Abbrand des Pulvers in der Pulverkammer 15 ein genügend großer Druck hierin aufgebaut, bricht die Sollbruchstelle und die innere Hülle wird freigegeben, sodass die innere Hülle mit den Wirkladungen nach rechts aus den Fig. 2 und 3 herausgeworfen wird. Inserted into the throwing body is an inner casing which is latched by means of a shearing edge 14 into the housing of the throwing body. This shearing edge 14 acts as a damming of the projectile and ensures that a predetermined breaking point is generated. If a sufficiently high pressure is built up by burning off the powder in the powder chamber 15, the predetermined breaking point breaks and the inner shell is released, so that the inner shell with the active charges is ejected to the right from FIGS. 2 and 3.
Fig. 4 zeigt die gleichen Merkmale der Fig. 1 , wobei diesmal entsprechende Verriegelungsbolzen 6 in die dafür vorgesehenen Bolzenaufnahmen eingebracht sind. Diese Verriegelungsbolzen 6 dienen zur Verriegelung in bestimmten Werfersystemen und können dafür optional angebracht werden. Mittels der Verriegelung ist es dann möglich, den Wurfkörper in einen entsprechenden Werfer einzuschrauben oder in einen entsprechenden Werfer mit Bajonettver- schluss einzubringen. Fig. 4 shows the same features of Fig. 1, this time corresponding locking pin 6 are introduced into the bolt receptacles provided for this purpose. These locking bolts 6 are used for locking in certain Werfersystemen and can be optionally attached. By means of the lock, it is then possible to screw the projectile into a corresponding launcher or to bring it into a corresponding launcher with bayonet closure.
In Fig. 5 hingegen ist die Anbringung eines Ausgleichsringes 7 gezeigt. Dieser wird in dem Bereich des Gehäuses des Wurfkörpers angebracht, in den sich die Führungsfinnen 2 nicht erstrecken. Der Ausgleichsring 7 sorgt für den Kaliberausgleich zwischen dem erfindungsgemäßen Wurfkörper und dem verwendeten Werfer. Ist der Wurfkörper mit einem geringeren Kaliber als die des Werfers ausgestattet, gleicht dieser Ausgleichsring 7 die Differenz von Wurfkörper und Werfer aus, sodass der erfindungsgemäße Wurfkörper fest und nur in axialer Richtung beweglich im Werfer gehalten wird. In Fig. 5, however, the attachment of a compensation ring 7 is shown. This is mounted in the region of the housing of the throwing body into which the guide fins 2 do not extend. The compensation ring 7 provides for the caliber compensation between the projectile according to the invention and the thrower used. If the throwing body is equipped with a smaller caliber than that of the thrower, this compensating ring 7 compensates for the difference between the throwing body and the thrower, so that the throwing body according to the invention is held firmly and movably in the thrower only in the axial direction.
In Fig. 6 ist ein erfindungsgemäßes Gehäuse eines Wurfkörpers gezeigt, allerdings ohne eingebrachte innere Hülle. Somit ist der Hohlraum 9 des Gehäuses zu sehen. Ebenso ist der verjüngte Bereich des Gehäuses mit der Pulverkammer 15 und dem Verzögerungssatz 13 zu erkennen, auch der Kontakt 3 zum Zünden der beiden vorgenannten ist zu erkennen. In der Fig. 6 sind ebenfalls eingebrachte Verriegelungsbolzen 6 gezeigt. In Ergänzung zu Fig. 6 zeigt Fig. 7 dann die innere Hülle 16 des erfindungsgemäßen Wurfkörpers mit den Wirkladungen 1 1 und 12. Wie gezeigt wird, ist die vorliegende Erfindung nicht auf zwei Wirkladungen beschränkt, auch mehrere sind möglich. Wie gezeigt wird, reicht der Verzögerungssatz 13 bis in die innere Hülle 16 hinein, um die Wirkladungen 1 1 , 12 zünden zu können. Gegenüberliegend des Verzögerungssatzes 13 ist die innere Hülle 16 mit einem Deckel 10 abgeschlossen. In Fig. 6, an inventive housing of a throwing body is shown, but without introduced inner shell. Thus, the cavity 9 of the housing can be seen. Likewise, the tapered portion of the housing with the powder chamber 15 and the delay set 13 can be seen, and the contact 3 for igniting the two aforementioned can be seen. In Fig. 6 also introduced locking pin 6 are shown. In addition to Fig. 6 Fig. 7 then shows the inner shell 16 of the projectile according to the invention with the active charges 1 1 and 12. As shown, the present invention is not limited to two effective charges, several are possible. As shown, the delay set 13 extends into the inner shell 16 in order to ignite the active charges 1 1, 12 can. Opposite the delay set 13, the inner shell 16 is closed with a lid 10.
Die vorliegende Erfindung ist auf die vorgenannten Merkmale beschränkt, vielmehr sind weitere Ausführungen denkbar. So könnten die Führungsfinnen sich auch über die gesamte Länge des Gehäuses erstrecken, abzüglich des verjüngten Bereiches. Dementsprechend wird dann der Ausgleichsring auf die Finnen aufgebracht, anstatt auf dem Bereich der Aufnahmemöglichkeit in dem sich die Finnen nicht befinden. The present invention is limited to the aforementioned features, but further embodiments are conceivable. Thus, the guide fins could extend over the entire length of the housing, minus the tapered area. Accordingly, then the compensation ring is applied to the fins, rather than in the area of the recording possibility in which the fins are not.
Dadurch, dass nunmehr nur noch einziger Wurfkörper für mehrere Arten der Kontaktierung von Werfern bereitgestellt werden muss, ist eine erhebliche Vereinfachung bei der Produktion der Wurf körper zu erkennen. Ebenso kann der Wurfkörper universell kontaktiert werden, sodass ein adaptiver Wurfkörper entsteht. The fact that now only the only throwing body for several types of contacting must be provided by throwers, a significant simplification in the production of litter body can be seen. Likewise, the projectile can be contacted universally, so that an adaptive projectile is created.
