Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for ejecting a weapon, in particular a torpedo, from a weapon barrel, in particular from a submerged submarine, with the ejection taking place with a significantly reduced noise level compared to conventional systems.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a compact and simple low-noise pressurized water ejection device.
  • the pressurized water ejection device according to the invention for a weapon barrel has a water cylinder, a working cylinder and a braking area.
  • a first piston rod connects a water piston in the water cylinder and a pressure piston in the power cylinder.
  • a second piston rod connects a first brake piston in the working cylinder and a second brake piston in the braking area.
  • the first piston rod has a blind hole for receiving the first brake piston.
  • the pressure piston meets the first brake piston. Even if a damping material is applied here, the collision still produces a noise. This noise is avoided by creating a further cylinder area inside the first piston rod, since the power transmission already takes place without direct contact.
  • the first brake piston is arranged in the blind hole of the first piston rod, this enables a very compact design, for example compared to the device in FIG DE 10 2016 201 101 A1 , which has a significantly larger design.
  • a gun barrel is used to eject a gun.
  • weapon includes, for example, torpedoes, missiles, mines and decoys, but also storage containers
  • the first brake piston closes the blind hole of the first piston rod in a gas-tight manner.
  • the first brake piston and the first piston rod particularly preferably enclose a first gas area.
  • Advantage of this form of expression is that the power transmission between the first piston rod and the first brake piston can be adjusted or controlled by the gas pressure and thereby both by the preselected gas pressure and by compression during the ejection.
  • the first gas region is particularly preferred filled with an inert gas, for example and in particular nitrogen, carbon dioxide or argon, particularly preferably nitrogen.
  • the braking area has a second gas area, the second gas area being closed when pressurized water is ejected, the second gas area being compressed during the pressurized water ejection.
  • the second gas region is particularly preferably filled with an inert gas, for example and in particular nitrogen, carbon dioxide or argon, particularly preferably nitrogen.
  • the braking area has a first brake cylinder and a second brake cylinder.
  • the second brake piston is arranged in the first brake cylinder.
  • the second brake cylinder has a third brake piston.
  • the second gas area is arranged in the second brake cylinder.
  • the second gas area is formed by the second brake cylinder and the third brake piston.
  • the second brake cylinder has a first fluid area and the first brake cylinder has a second fluid area, the first fluid area and the second fluid area being connected to one another.
  • the working cylinder is divided by the pressure piston into an ejection area and a clamping area.
  • the outlet area is preferably connected to a bladder accumulator. Hydraulic fluid, for example at a pressure of 300 bar, can be quickly introduced from the bladder accumulator into the ejection area in order to move the pressure piston and the water piston connected to the pressure piston and thus convey the water from the water cylinder into the weapon barrel. After the weapon has been fired, the hydraulic fluid can then flow from the outlet area into the Funded clamping range and so the pressure water ejection devices are put back into the operational state.
  • the surface area of the first brake piston is smaller than the surface area of the second brake piston. Due to the balance of forces, different sized areas generate different pressures on both sides of the second piston rod. This allows the braking characteristics to be adjusted.
  • pressurized water ejection device according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the drawing.
  • a pressurized water ejection device 10 according to the invention is shown in cross section.
  • the pressurized water ejection device 10 has a water cylinder 20 , a working cylinder 30 and a braking area 40 .
  • the water cylinder 20 and the working cylinder 30 are connected by a first piston rod 50 , the first piston rod 50 having a water piston 60 and a pressure piston 70 .
  • hydraulic fluid is introduced into the inlet area 180 under high pressure.
  • the pressure piston 70 is moved to the left and pulls the water piston 60 with it.
  • the water is pressed out of the water cylinder 20 into the weapon barrel.
  • the pressurized water ejection device 10 has a braking device.
  • This consists of a second piston rod 80 with a first brake piston 90 and a second brake piston 100, the second brake piston 100 being arranged in a first brake cylinder 130.
  • the first brake piston 90 is arranged in a blind hole in the first piston rod 50 . This results in a first gas area 110.
  • the first gas area 110 is initially reduced and, if the pressure is sufficiently high, force is transmitted to the first brake piston 90.
  • the second piston rod 80 and thus the second brake piston 100 are also left moves and hydraulic fluid from the second liquid region 170 pressed into the first liquid region 160.
  • the third brake piston 150 is moved upwards, so that the second gas area 120 is compressed. This results in braking of the first piston rod 50 and the water piston 60 before it hits the wall. An undesired generation of noise is accordingly avoided.
  • the braking section includes a first brake cylinder 130 and a second brake cylinder 140 . If necessary, these can be arranged spatially separated from one another and connected by means of lines. This results in the possibility of a smaller installation space through an optimized arrangement.
  • hydraulic fluid is pumped into the outlet area 190 and removed from the inlet area 180 . This can be done, for example, by means of a pump, not shown here.
