DESCRIPCIONDESCRIPTION

Canon automatico de calibre pequeno o medioCanon automatic small or medium caliber

La invencion se refiere a un canon automatico de calibre pequeno o medio con un tubo de arma montado en un alojamiento de arma o cuna, en el que el tubo de arma esta rodeado por un soporte de tubo fijado al alojamiento de arma o cuna y, teniendo en cuenta el retroceso del tubo, se extiende hasta la zona inmediatamente detras de la boca del tubo de arma, que esta realizado como elemento tubular que abarca al tubo de arma por todos lados, siendo su diametro interior una magnitud predeterminada mayor que el diametro exterior del tubo de arma, en el que entre la pared interior del elemento tubular y la pared exterior del tubo de arma estan dispuestos, al menos en el extremo delantero del elemento tubular, elementos de soporte que estan unidos fijamente al elemento tubular y su distancia de la pared exterior del tubo de arma tiene una medida tal que esta garantizado el retroceso sin obstaculos del tubo de arma, pero son contrarrestadas oscilaciones radiales o flexiones del tubo de arma mediante el elementos de soporte.The invention relates to a small or medium caliber automatic canon with a gun tube mounted in a gun or cradle housing, in which the gun tube is surrounded by a tube holder fixed to the gun or cradle housing and, taking into account the recoil of the tube, it extends to the area immediately behind the mouth of the gun tube, which is made as a tubular element that encompasses the gun tube on all sides, its inner diameter being a predetermined magnitude greater than the diameter outer of the gun tube, in which between the inner wall of the tubular element and the outer wall of the gun tube are arranged, at least at the front end of the tubular element, support elements that are fixedly attached to the tubular element and its distance of the outer wall of the gun tube has such a measure that the unhindered recoil of the gun tube is guaranteed, but radial oscillations or flexions of the gun tube are counteracted before the support elements.

En los canones automaticos de este tipo se presenta el problema de que al disparar de pie o en marcha se producen oscilaciones del tubo no deseadas en lo que respecta a la direccion radial del tubo de arma. Estas pueden influir en la dispersion del arma en el sistema. Hasta ahora se ha intentado contrarrestar las oscilaciones radiales que se producen en el tubo por la correspondiente rigidez en la realizacion del tubo de arma. El problema se agrava porque debido al empleo de municion inteligente han sido necesarios modulos en la boca cada vez mas complejos y pesados (frenos de boca) que parcialmente han sido dotados de modulos electronicos, por ejemplo, para la medicion de la velocidad y/o para la programacion de la municion. Por tanto, se acumulan los problemas con la dispersion del arma por las oscilaciones del tubo.In automatic canons of this type, the problem arises that when shooting on foot or in motion, unwanted oscillations of the tube occur as regards the radial direction of the gun tube. These can influence the dispersion of the weapon in the system. Until now, attempts have been made to counteract the radial oscillations that occur in the tube by the corresponding rigidity in the realization of the weapon tube. The problem is exacerbated because, due to the use of intelligent ammunition, increasingly complex and heavy modules in the mouth (mouth brakes) have been necessary and partially equipped with electronic modules, for example, for the measurement of speed and / or for the programming of the ammunition. Therefore, problems accumulate with the dispersion of the weapon by the oscillations of the tube.

En el documento FR 972 500 A se describe un arma de fuego portatil con tubo de fuego que retrocede. En el documento FR 596 175 A se describe un arma de gran calibre con tubo de arma en dos piezas, cuyo tubo de arma se porta por cables. El documento DE 707 201 C describe un arma de tubo con una cubierta tubular que rodea al tubo del arma y posibilita un retroceso del tubo del arma.Document FR 972 500 A describes a portable firearm with a receding fire pipe. Document FR 596 175 A describes a large caliber weapon with a two-piece weapon tube, the weapon tube of which is carried by cables. Document DE 707 201 C describes a tube weapon with a tubular cover that surrounds the weapon tube and enables a recoil of the weapon tube.

La invencion se propone el objeto de conseguir un canon automatico de calibre pequeno o mediano en el que el tubo de arma este soportado de tal forma que se reduzcan las amplitudes radiales del tubo del arma que se producen al disparar a causa de las oscilaciones del tubo.The invention proposes the object of obtaining an automatic canon of small or medium caliber in which the weapon tube is supported in such a way that the radial amplitudes of the weapon tube that are produced when firing due to the oscillations of the tube are reduced .

La solucion de este objeto se consigue segun la invencion con las caractensticas de la reivindicacion 1. Perfeccionamientos ventajosos de la invencion estan descritos en las reivindicaciones dependientes.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of claim 1. Advantageous improvements of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Una idea base de la invencion consiste en rodear el tubo de arma con un soporte de tubo que este llevado hasta inmediatamente detras de la zona de la boca del tubo de arma. Este soporte del tubo esta unido fijamente al alojamiento de arma o la cuna y esta reforzado de tal modo que contrarreste las oscilaciones que se producen en el tubo. Esto se consigue mediante elementos de soporte dispuestos en el soporte de tubo cuya distancia a la pared exterior del tubo de arma tenga una medida tal que este garantizado un retroceso del tubo de arma sin obstaculos pero que las oscilaciones radiales o flexiones del tubo del arma sean transferidas por estos elementos de soporte al soporte de tubo y sean amortiguadas por este.A basic idea of the invention is to surround the gun tube with a tube holder that is carried up immediately behind the mouth area of the gun tube. This tube holder is fixedly attached to the weapon housing or cradle and is reinforced in such a way that it counteracts the oscillations that occur in the tube. This is achieved by means of support elements arranged in the tube holder whose distance to the outer wall of the weapon tube has such a measure that a recoil of the weapon tube without obstacles is guaranteed but that the radial oscillations or flexions of the weapon tube are transferred by these support elements to the tube support and are damped by it.

Si se dispara sin soporte de tubo, el tubo de arma vibra y se forman vientres de oscilacion locales en los que la amplitud de oscilacion es mayor que en otros lugares del tubo del arma. Los lugares de amplitudes elevadas dependen de las propiedades del tubo de arma, por ejemplo de la longitud, la rigidez y el material del tubo del arma y pueden ser determinados por simulacion o a traves de experimentos. Una amortiguacion especialmente eficaz se puede conseguir si los elementos de soporte estan dispuestos en lugares con amplitud de oscilacion elevada respecto a otros lugares, en particular con la mayor amplitud de oscilacion.If fired without a tube holder, the weapon tube vibrates and local oscillation bellies are formed in which the amplitude of oscillation is greater than elsewhere in the weapon tube. The locations of high amplitudes depend on the properties of the weapon tube, for example the length, stiffness and material of the weapon tube and can be determined by simulation or through experiments. An especially effective damping can be achieved if the support elements are arranged in places with high amplitude of oscillation with respect to other places, in particular with the greatest amplitude of oscillation.

El soporte de tubo puede estar realizado con una forma de construccion ligera y el conformado puede ser tal que se consiga una alta rigidez. Por la forma de construccion ligera puede conseguirse una medida de desequilibrio justificable, de manera que en sistemas estabilizados la calidad de estabilizacion no se vea influida esencialmente de forma desfavorable.The tube support can be made with a lightweight construction and the forming can be such that high rigidity is achieved. Due to the lightweight construction, a justifiable imbalance measure can be achieved, so that in stabilized systems the stabilization quality is not essentially influenced unfavorably.

El soporte de tubo esta realizado esencialmente como elemento tubular cuyo diametro interior sea una magnitud predeterminada mayor que el diametro exterior del tubo de arma. El elemento tubular puede presentar secciones transversales diferentes. Asf su seccion transversal interior, por ejemplo, al menos en un sector parcial de su longitud que da a la boca del tubo de arma, tiene forma circular, ovalada, elfptica o tambien poligonal, por ejemplo rombica. En caso de secciones transversales con diametros interiores diferentes ha demostrado ser ventajoso que el diametro interior sea mayor en la direccion de elevacion del movimiento del tubo de arma que el diametro interior en la direccion del azimut.The tube holder is essentially made as a tubular element whose inner diameter is a predetermined magnitude greater than the outer diameter of the gun tube. The tubular element may have different cross sections. Thus its internal cross-section, for example, at least in a partial sector of its length that gives the mouth of the gun tube, has a circular, oval, elliptical or also polygonal shape, for example, rhombic. In the case of cross sections with different interior diameters it has proved advantageous that the inner diameter is larger in the direction of elevation of the movement of the gun tube than the inner diameter in the direction of the azimuth.

En el caso de una forma de realizacion especialmente ventajosa el elemento tubular con seccion transversal interior con forma circular posee al menos en una parte de su longitud una pieza de caperuza que puede estar dispuesta, por ejemplo, en la cara superior del elemento tubular y presenta una seccion transversal con forma esencialmenteIn the case of a particularly advantageous embodiment, the tubular element with a circular internal cross-section has at least one part of its length a cap that can be arranged, for example, on the upper face of the tubular element and has a cross section essentially shaped

de U o V y esta colocada de tal modo que entre el elemento tubular y la pieza de caperuza se forme un canal continuo. Esta pieza de caperuza sirve por una parte para mayor reforzamiento de la construccion del soporte de tubo y tiene ademas la ventaja de que a traves del espacio interior realizado como canal continuo, en el caso de un tubo de arma con modulos electricos, pueden ser conducidas lmeas de conexion electricas a la zona de la boca del tubo de arma.U or V and is placed in such a way that a continuous channel is formed between the tubular element and the cap. This piece of hood serves on the one hand for greater reinforcement of the construction of the tube support and also has the advantage that through the interior space made as a continuous channel, in the case of a weapon tube with electric modules, they can be conducted Electrical connection lines to the mouth area of the gun tube.

A continuacion se explicara en detalle en virtud de los dibujos adjuntos un ejemplo de realizacion de un tubo de arma para un canon automatico de calibre pequeno o medio con un soporte de tubo.An example of the realization of a weapon tube for a small or medium-sized automatic canon with a tube holder will be explained in detail below.

En los dibujos muestran:In the drawings they show:

Fig. 5 una seccion transversal a traves del tubo de arma a lo largo de la lmea D-D en la fig. 3.Fig. 5 a cross section through the gun tube along the D-D line in fig. 3.

Las figuras 1 a 5 muestran el tubo de arma 1 de un canon automatico por lo demas no representado que esta montado en un alojamiento de arma 2 solo indicado.Figures 1 to 5 show the gun tube 1 of an automatic canon not shown, which is mounted in a gun housing 2 only indicated.

En el alojamiento de arma 2 esta dispuesto un soporte de tubo que presenta un elemento tubular 3 que rodea al tubo de arma 1 y es guiado desde el alojamiento de arma 2 hasta la zona inmediatamente detras de la boca 1.1 del tubo de arma 1, que puede estar dotado de modulos adicionales en la boca, como por ejemplo un freno de boca, asf como modulos electronicos que son conocidos en sf y no seran descritos en detalle. La distancia del extremo delantero del elemento tubular 3 a la boca del tubo de arma es elegida de manera que se tenga en cuenta el retroceso del tubo y este pueda tener lugar sin obstaculos.In the gun housing 2 a tube holder is provided that has a tubular element 3 that surrounds the gun tube 1 and is guided from the gun housing 2 to the area immediately behind the mouth 1.1 of the gun tube 1, which it may be provided with additional modules in the mouth, such as a mouth brake, as well as electronic modules that are known in sf and will not be described in detail. The distance from the front end of the tubular element 3 to the mouth of the gun tube is chosen so that the recoil of the tube is taken into account and this can take place without hindrance.

En el elemento tubular 3 estan dispuestos en el extremo delantero elementos de soporte 5. La disposicion se puede deducir con mas precision de la Fig. 5. Los elementos de soporte 4 estan distribuidos por el contorno del elemento tubular con una distancia angular de aproximadamente 120° y unidos fijamente al elemento tubular 3. La distancia de los elementos de soporte 4 a la pared exterior del tubo de arma 1 tiene una medida tal que por un lado esta garantizado un retroceso sin obstaculos del tubo de arma 1 bajo todas las condiciones, esto es, incluso en caso de temperatura elevada, y tambien las oscilaciones radiales o flexiones del tubo de arma 1 son absorbidas por los elementos de soporte 4 y transferidas al elemento tubular 3.In the tubular element 3 support elements 5 are arranged at the front end. The arrangement can be deduced more precisely from Fig. 5. The support elements 4 are distributed around the contour of the tubular element with an angular distance of approximately 120 ° and fixedly connected to the tubular element 3. The distance of the support elements 4 to the outer wall of the gun tube 1 has such a measure that on the one hand an unhindered recoil of the gun tube 1 is guaranteed under all conditions, that is, even in case of high temperature, and also the radial oscillations or flexions of the gun tube 1 are absorbed by the support elements 4 and transferred to the tubular element 3.

A traves de investigaciones se determino que al disparar sin soporte de tubo en el lugar a traves del cual discurre el corte D-D en la fig. 3 es donde se produce la maxima amplitud de oscilacion. Por este motivo los elementos de soporte 4 estan dispuestos en la zona de este lugar, de manera que resulta una amortiguacion eficaz de la oscilacion con un numero pequeno de elementos de soporte y por tanto poco peso adicional.Through investigations it was determined that when firing without tube support in place through which the D-D cut in fig. 3 is where the maximum amplitude of oscillation occurs. For this reason the support elements 4 are arranged in the area of this place, so that an effective damping of the oscillation results with a small number of support elements and therefore little additional weight.

Como se puede deducir de la fig. 3, a traves de la longitud del elemento tubular 3 estan distribuidos otros elementos de soporte 4 y 6. El elemento tubular 3 puede presentar a traves de su longitud diferentes diametros segun el espesor del tubo de arma 1. Asf, por ejemplo, en la zona trasera engrosada 1.2 del tubo de arma, el diametro interior del elemento tubular 3 es mayor que en el extremo delantero y los elementos de soporte 6 son adaptados correspondientemente.As can be deduced from fig. 3, through the length of the tubular element 3 other support elements 4 and 6 are distributed. The tubular element 3 can have different diameters along its length according to the thickness of the gun tube 1. Thus, for example, in the thickened rear zone 1.2 of the gun tube, the inside diameter of the tubular element 3 is larger than at the front end and the support elements 6 are correspondingly adapted.

En la cara superior del elemento tubular 3 que presenta al menos en su zona delantera una seccion transversal con forma circular esta dispuesta sobre una parte de su longitud una pieza de caperuza 3.1 que como se puede deducir de la fig. 5 posee una seccion transversal redondeada esencialmente con forma de U o V y esta soldada al elemento tubular 3 con sus extremos libres. Esta pieza de caperuza 3.1 sirve no solo para mayor reforzamiento del soporte tubular, sino que ademas su espacio interior representa un canal de paso 3.2 a traves del cual de un modo que no esta representado pueden ser conducidas las lmeas de conexion electrica que conectan los modulos electronicos dispuestos en la zona de la boca 1.1 del tubo de arma con unidades de senalizacion y evaluacion no representadas. En la zona trasera del elemento tubular 3 el soporte tubular esta reforzado por otra pieza de caperuza 3.3.On the upper face of the tubular element 3, which has at least one circular cross-section in its front area, a cap 3.1 is arranged on a part of its length which, as can be deduced from fig. 5 has a rounded cross-section essentially with a U or V shape and is welded to the tubular element 3 with its free ends. This piece of cap 3.1 serves not only for greater reinforcement of the tubular support, but also its interior space represents a passage channel 3.2 through which, in a way that is not represented, the electrical connection lines connecting the modules can be driven electronics arranged in the mouth area 1.1 of the gun tube with signaling and evaluation units not shown. In the rear area of the tubular element 3 the tubular support is reinforced by another piece of cap 3.3.

Como se puede deducir de las figuras 2 y 4 las paredes del elemento tubular 3 estan dotadas de ranuras de paso de aire 7 dispuestas lateralmente y que discurren en la direccion longitudinal.As can be deduced from Figures 2 and 4, the walls of the tubular element 3 are provided with air passage grooves 7 arranged laterally and running in the longitudinal direction.
