Description

The utility model relates to the field of rocketry and can be used to fire anti-hail missiles at thunderstorm clouds in order to prevent hail and precipitation.

Various designs of rocket launchers are known for influencing atmospheric processes, containing a base, a rack, a swivel placed on a rack with the ability to rotate around a vertical axis, a platform (cradle) mounted on a swivel with guides for placing missiles, driving a missile launcher guidance along the elevation angle and azimuth, equipped with locking devices for fixing the missile launcher at the guidance angles [1].

The disadvantages of known rocket launchers include their low efficiency, the complexity and laboriousness of assembling and disassembling its main elements and assemblies, which is due to the fact that each guide (and there are 12 of them, for example, in the TKB-040 launcher), requires individual adjustment and adjustments.

The closest in technical essence to the claimed object is a complex of impact on clouds with special anti-hail products, consisting of a launcher and a control center, in which the launcher is made universal with replaceable packages of multi-tiered guides for anti-hail products of various calibers and types and with locking devices for anti-hail products holding them in the launcher before the start, and the packages themselves are unified in size, attachment to the platform for their placement [2].

In the launcher, which is part of the well-known complex, each replaceable multi-tiered package of guides is made for a specific caliber and type of anti-hail products, both reactive and dynamic start, interconnected by identical blocks, while the basis of its guide blocks are three stamped-welded trough-shaped partitions, made of hot-rolled sheet steel with a thickness of 3 mm, and the partitions themselves for all blocks have equal lengths and heights; in the partitions themselves, L-shaped windows are symmetrically located through which guides of W-shaped section, made of hot-rolled steel, pass in pairs towards each other , with a thickness of 1.5 ÷ 2 mm, while in all its replaceable packages the lower of the pairs of guides are equipped with locking devices, the working head of the lock of each of them, when the rocket or projectile is inserted into the guides, is recessed in the body of this device, fixing in the bayonet groove using a special nuts and a key-lever.

The well-known complex of impact on clouds with anti-hail products turned out to be quite complicated and expensive. A lot of money and time was spent for debugging and putting it into production. However, the complex did not pass pilot tests and was discontinued.

Another closest in technical essence to the claimed object is a rocket launcher, which is part of a complex of impact on clouds, containing a base, a rack, placed on a rack with the ability to rotate around the axis of a rotary support device, on which a rocking platform is located, along the longitudinal axis of which , three blocks of guides are placed in two tiers, where one block of guides is placed on the lower tier, and two adjacent blocks of guides are placed on the other - the upper tier, which are structurally identical and are fan-shaped relative to the longitudinal axis of the swing platform, while each block of guides contains transverse partitions with L-shaped windows-slots, where metal profiles mirrored relative to the horizontal axis are placed in a row, forming channels for placing missiles, and the blocks of the guides of the lower and upper tiers are placed on the transverse load-bearing beams and are attached to the rocking platform with the help of special bolted connections [3].

In the known launcher, each adjacent block of guides of the upper tier contains its own transverse partitions placed along the length, which are made of thin (1.5-2 mm) sheet steel, and are not connected with the transverse guides of another adjacent block of guides lying in the same plane with the first , which reduces the strength and rigidity of the structure, as well as the reliability of the installation.

Taking into account the foregoing, the technical result of the claimed technical solution is to increase the strength and rigidity of the structure of the rocket launcher, as well as the reliability of its operation.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that in a known rocket launcher containing a base, a rack placed on a rack with the possibility of rotation about an axis of a rotary support device, on which a rocking platform is located, along the longitudinal axis of which, three blocks of guides are placed in two tiers, where on the lower tier there is one block of guides, and on the other, the upper tier, there are two adjacent blocks of guides, which are structurally identical and are fan-shaped relative to the longitudinal axis of the swinging platform, while the blocks of guides contain transverse partitions with L-shaped windows placed in series along their length , where W-shaped metal profiles mirrored relative to their horizontal axis are placed in a row, forming channels for placing missiles, and the guide blocks of the lower and upper tiers themselves are attached to the swing platform using special bolted joints, according to the invention, adjacent guide blocks x of the upper tier, lying in the same plane, are combined into a single monoblock using common transverse partitions, each of which is made in the form of an open box with rear and side walls, while each of them contains two sections of the same length along the edges, which are bent under an angle of 5 degrees, towards its open part, while the L-shaped windows in the partitions are located on the sidewalls of its curved sections, between its upper and lower shelves, and in the shelves themselves there are vertical coaxially located through holes, between which are placed coaxially with tubular racks, through which bolted joints are passed for fastening the guide blocks to the swinging platform, while the transverse partitions are made mainly of hot-rolled sheet steel with a thickness of 2-4 mm, or a steel bent equal-flange channel of a light series with parallel shelves, the dimensions of which in cross-section are , mainly 180 × 40 × 3 mm, for practical use ike missiles of 60 mm caliber, and 200 × 40 × 3 mm - for missiles of 82.5 caliber.

Below are the figures that explain the essence of the claimed technical solution.

FIG. 1 shows a view of the launcher (side view).

FIG. 2 is a view of the launcher (top view).

FIG. 3 is a view of the first two partitions of the guide block of the lower tier, located on the side of the muzzle of the guide block.

FIG. 4 is a view of the third partition of the block of guides of the lower tier, located on the side of the breech of the block of guides.

FIG. 5 is a view of the first two partitions of the upper tier guide block in two projections.

FIG. 6 is a view of the third end partition of the upper tier guide block, in two projections.

FIG. 7 is a general view of the assembled guide blocks (side view).

FIG. 8 is a general view of the assembled guide blocks (end view).

The rocket launcher (Fig. 1) contains a base 1, resting on a cross 2, equipped with stops 3. On the base 2, there is a stand 4, on which a rotary support device is installed 5. In the upper part between the sidewalls 6 of a rotary support device 5, a swinging platform 7, and in the lower part at the base of the rotary support device 5 there is a locking device 8 for fixing the rocket launcher in azimuth. The locking device 8, shown in the figure, contains a lever handle 9 with a profile toothed shoe 10, pressed against the gear 11, located in the casing 12. At the base 1 there is a circular scale for the azimuth rotation angle 13, equipped with a pointer indicator 14. On one from the sidewalls of the support-rotary device 5 there is a manual drive in the form of a handle 15, which makes it possible to set the required elevation angle. The elevation angle is determined by the scale 16, located on the sidewall 6 of the rotary support 5, and by the position of the pointer 17 attached to the axis 18 of the rocker platform 7. In this case, the position of the launcher along the elevation angle is fixed by a cam locking device 19.

On the rocking platform 7, three blocks of guides 20, 21 and 22 are placed in two tiers. In this case, the first block of guides 20 is located on the first (lower) tier along the longitudinal axis of the swinging platform 7, and two other blocks of guides 21 and 22 are located on the second (upper ) tier, while the planes of the upper and lower tiers are parallel.

In order to increase the strength and rigidity of the structure, and the reliability of the functioning of the rocket launcher, the guide blocks 20, 21 and 22 contain three transverse partitions arranged in series along their length. In the lower block of guides 20, these partitions are designated by the same number 23, since they are identical, and the partitions of the guide blocks of the upper tier 21 and 22 are designated by numbers 24, 25 and 26, since they differ somewhat both in shape and size. The middle transverse partition 25 contains two eyebolts 27, which are necessary to carry out loading and unloading operations during the assembly and disassembly of the launcher.

The transverse partitions of the block of guides of the lower tier 23 (Fig. 3) are made in the form of an open box, which is in cross-section an equal-flange channel with a rear 28 and side 29 walls. The upper and lower flanges of the box 30 and 31 are provided with vertical coaxially located through holes 32, between which tubular posts 33, coaxially welded to the flanges from the inside, are arranged, providing the necessary strength and rigidity of the structure. All partitions of the lower tier are structurally identical, with the first two partitions, starting from the barrel part, directed with the open part towards the breech, and the third end partition, located on the side of the breech part (Fig. 4), directed towards the muzzle of the block of guides 20. On the rear walls 28 of the partitions 23 (Fig. 3-Fig. 4), L-shaped windows 34 are provided, where W-shaped profile guides 35 are located, each of which contains a locking device 36 at the breech cut for fixing the rocket in the guide channel, and ensuring the required breakout force of 50-70 kg when it starts.

The transverse partitions of the same type 24 and 25 (Fig. 5) and the end partition 26 of the guide blocks of the upper tier (Fig. 6) differ from the partitions 23 of the lower tier (Fig. 4) in that they contain along the edges two sections 37 of the same length, which bent at an angle of 5 degrees, towards the open part of the partition, while on the rear walls of these sections, as well as in the partitions of the lower tier, L-shaped windows 34 are provided, where W-shaped profile guides 35 are located, each of which also contains on cut off the breech part of the locking device 36 for fixing the rocket in the guide channel. In the figures (Fig. 6), the locking devices are not shown.

The transverse partitions 26 of the upper tier (Fig. 6), in contrast to the partitions 24 and 25 (Fig. 5), are directed towards its muzzle. To reduce the weight of the guide blocks, the first two partitions 24 and 25 of the upper tier, located on the muzzle side, contain openings 38 on the rear walls 28. There is no opening in the third partition 26 located on the breech side of the guide block. This partition is made integral and bent at an angle of 5 degrees towards the breech of the block of guides. In order not to complicate the drawing, in the figures (Fig. 5) guides 35 and locking devices 36 are not shown.

The figures (Fig. 7 and Fig. 8) show a general view of all three blocks of guides assembled in two projections. The fastening of the blocks of guides 20, 21 and 22 to the rocking platform 7 of the launcher is carried out using special bolted joints 39 passed through the vertical coaxially located through holes 32 and tubular posts 33, which are shown in the figures (Fig. 4-Fig. 6). In this case, three transverse bearing beams 40 are used, located between the blocks of guides of the upper and lower tiers (Fig. 7-Fig. 8).

To ensure the required strength and rigidity of the rocket launcher structure, the transverse partitions are made of hot-rolled sheet steel with a thickness of 2-4 mm, or a steel bent equal-flange channel of a light series with parallel shelves, the dimensions of which in cross-section are mainly 180 × 40 × 3 mm , for missiles of 60 mm caliber used in practice, and 200 × 40 × 3 mm - for missiles of 82.5 caliber.

The rocket launcher works as follows.

When a command is received to launch missiles, the fighter manually sets the required angles of guidance of the launcher in azimuth and elevation by turning the rotary support 5.

The set azimuth angle is determined by the scale 13 and is fixed by pressing the profile toothed shoe 10 to the gear 11 with the handle 9. After that, by rotating the handle 15 on the scale 16, the required elevation angle is set and fixed by the cam locking device 19. After the guidance angles are set, the first is started triplets of missiles. After the descent of the first three missiles, new firing angles in azimuth and elevation are set, and the next three missiles are launched.

The tests carried out have shown that the design of the guide blocks, with common transverse partitions, combining the entire design of the upper and lower tiers into a single monoblock, provides the necessary strength and rigidity of the rocket launcher design, as well as the reliability of its operation under massive impact on powerful hail clouds.
