Description

The utility model relates to transport engineering, in particular to towing devices designed to tow armored vehicles and equipment with a faulty brake system, without a driver on rough terrain and in mountainous conditions.

Known universal rigid tug, (patent of the Russian Federation No. 509468 published 04/05/1976) containing a central earring, rods with traction, loops pivotally connected to the central earring, interacting with the hooks of the towed transport affinity. This device is a prototype.

However, a significant drawback of this device is the inability to use it when towing special vehicles (armored personnel carriers (hereinafter - armored personnel carriers) and infantry fighting vehicles (hereinafter - armored personnel carriers)) that do not have shock absorbing and absorbing devices. Low rigidity of the articulated joint, which leads to significant bending moments during uneven movement, tremors during movement due to folding, turning the center earring relative to the rods when the towed object is running onto the tractor. Insufficient flexibility of towing device elements when towing an armored personnel carrier (BMP) over rough terrain and in mountainous conditions. The low reliability of the connections of the towing rods of a tugboat with the BTR (BMP) hooks, the inability to use them when towing the BTR (BMP) for the rear and side hooks.

The technical task of the utility model is the ability to tow an armored personnel carrier (BMP) with a faulty brake system, without a driver on rough terrain and in mountain conditions when evacuating damaged objects from the area of a special operation for front, rear or side hooks located in different planes and at different distances with each other, when using an armored personnel carrier or a technical assistance vehicle on a motor vehicle basis (hereinafter - MTP), which do not have shock absorbing and absorbing devices, with large angles, flexibly with the achievement of a decrease in dynamic loads arising in a rigid coupling when towing, and reliable detachable connections of the device elements for the possibility of their separate transportation in the stowed position on the sides of the BTR (BMP) hull outside or in the MTP body.

The technical problem is solved due to the fact that the device for towing armored weapons and equipment contains towing rods with compensating springs that soften shock loads and having the ability to move in the direction of traction with symmetrical deflection of the rods when installed on hooks, traction loops that are equipped with rubber shock absorbers with the possibility of rotation around the axis in the shock absorber housing, covering the center pin on the transition platform (swivel). Each bar can be equipped with a tow bar hook, made with protrusions of rectangular cross section, annular grooves on the outer surface, which includes a locking bracket that repeats the configuration of the protrusions, and a flange with a collar, by means of which the lock is pushed, followed by locking with a nut and cotter pin to the back of the towbar hook, with the earring hooked into the hook socket to connect the towbar.

The transition platform (swivel) can be equipped with a thrust pad, a double-sided earring, one engages with the towbar pin, and the other for securing the towing fork, which engages with the center pin, which is pressed with a cotter pin.

The utility model is illustrated by drawings, where in FIG. 1 shows a device in the operating position for towing, bottom view; in FIG. 2 is a section AA of FIG. 1; in FIG. 3 section BB of FIG. 1; in FIG. 4 a section BB of the tow bar with compensating springs of FIG. 1.

A device for towing armored weapons and equipment includes two towing rods 1, each of which consists of a traction loop 2, equipped with a rubber shock absorber 16, a compensating spring 8 in the housing 9, motionlessly connected by a pipe 10 to the traction loop 2 of the towbar. The towing loops 2 of the towing rods are connected to the opening of the double-sided earring 3 of the transition platform (swivel) 17, the central pin 18 after covering the holes 4 of the towing fork 5. Each towing rod 1 is connected to the hook connecting rod 11, made with protrusions, which includes a locking the bracket 12, repeating the configuration of the protrusions, and a flange with a shoulder 13, by means of which the lock is pressed to limit the gap and prevent breakage from the towing hook 15 in conjunction with the subsequent locking bolt 14 with a cotter pin to the back of the head of the towing hook, with earrings inserted into the hook socket for connecting the towbar.

The pulling fork 5 is connected to the transition platform (swivel) 17, made in the form of a double-sided earring 6, including, in addition, a thrust pad 19 with rubber buffers 20, which is pressed after connecting the opening of the earring 7 with the pin 21 of the tractor, until it stops in upper and lower part of the tractor stern. In the stowed position, the towing rods 1 complete with earrings for connecting the towing rods 11 and the transition platform (swivel) 17 are placed on the sides of the BTR (BMP) hull outside or in the body of the MTP.

A device for towing armored vehicles and equipment without earrings for connecting tow rods 11 and the transition platform (turntable) 8 can be used to tow ordinary heavy vehicles with a faulty brake system and without a driver in the cab.

Thus, the proposed device for towing armored weapons and equipment, has a novelty and significant difference from the prototype, and provides it with a new useful feature - giving the possibility of towing armored personnel carriers (BMPs) and heavy vehicles with a faulty brake system and without a driver. It can be used for towing armored personnel carriers (BMPs) over rough terrain and in mountainous conditions during exercises, field exercises and special operations of military units.
