Description

The utility model relates to a vehicle, in particular to rotating weapon installations of vehicles, for example to an all-terrain vehicle with a loading platform.

Known rotating vehicle weapon mount (RF patent - RU 2244239 C1 dated 01.10.2005, IPC F41A 23/34), containing a flat platform with an opening, mounted on the pursuit at the level of the vehicle's roof, containing weapon supports, fixed around the perimeter of the platform outside , made with the possibility of installing various types of weapons on them and conducting simultaneous and separate firing in one or several independent directions of weapon guidance in the platform position in a combat manner, while the platform opening is designed to accommodate one or more shooters, and the platform itself is equipped elements of shelter for a stowed position with the placement of weapons in places provided for their transportation in this position.

The disadvantage of the known rotating vehicle weapon installation is that this rotating vehicle weapon installation can only be used stationary (on an armored personnel carrier).

Based on the experience of operating military equipment, as well as equipment for other purposes in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, all weapons are mounted either in tower or tower (hull) elements of equipment, which does not allow personnel to dismount with this type of weapon, as well as install it on other types of support surfaces and other equipment without dismantling it with a special tool in the shortest time for military operations.

The technical result of the proposed utility model is aimed at eliminating these shortcomings.

A distinctive feature of the prototype is that the rotating structure for mounting weapons on an all-terrain platform is equipped with a tripod with a rotating platform connected to the support base of the cradle of the weapon used (depending on the tasks assigned) through a cardan joint with a vertical stabilization system.

Photo 1 shows a rotating structure for mounting weapons on an ATV platform (general view).

A rotating structure for mounting weapons on an ATV platform consists of a cradle 1 of the weapon used, which is installed on a support base 2, a universal joint 3, a rotating platform 4, a tripod 5, which is installed on an ATV platform.

The rotating structure for mounting weapons on an ATV platform (photo 2 - general view) works as follows. Upon receiving a combat mission, the crew, having installed this rotating structure on an all-terrain platform and the corresponding weaponry in the cradle by attaching it to the support base, moves to the firing position. Arriving at the place of the combat mission, he fires with the installed weapons (KPV) from an all-terrain vehicle platform. The rotating platform 2 allows the shooter to rotate the weapon relative to the horizontal by 360 degrees, and the gimbal 3 allows the shooter to direct the weapon at the target relative to the horizontal axis along the vertical ± 40 °, which makes it possible to fire both from heights along the bottom and at flying targets.

Thus, the use of a rotating structure for mounting weapons on an ATV platform will increase the effectiveness of the weapons used when performing combat missions using ATV platforms.

Claims (1)

A rotating weapon mount of a vehicle containing a flat platform with an opening, mounted on a chase at the level of the vehicle's roof, containing weapon supports, fixed along the perimeter of the platform from the outside, made with the possibility of installing various types of weapons on them and conducting simultaneous and separate firing in several independent the directions of weapon guidance in the position of the platform in a combat manner, while the platform opening is made with the possibility of placing the shooters, and the platform itself is equipped with shelter elements for the stowed position with the placement of weapons in places provided for their transportation in this position, characterized in that the cradle of the weapon used is attached through a support base, a cardan joint and a turntable to a tripod, which can be used for installation on an all-terrain platform when firing.
