Description

The utility model relates to motor vehicles for short-term storage, transportation and distribution of fuel, namely to tankers equipped with tanks.

A device for armored protection of a tank is known (RF Patent RU No. 209606 U1 "Device for armored protection of a tank") [1], containing an armored protective screen, a frame welded to the screen, stiffeners that give greater strength to the frame and holes for attaching an armored protective screen, while along the inner perimeter of the armored protective screen there are two rows of slots for installation in the first row of slots through the open side of the screen of the bullet-dissipating panel, consisting of a metal frame and alternating vertical and horizontal metal rods welded to the frame and to each other, and in the second row of slots of ceramic modules to create armored protection of a tanker tanker when delivering fuel to units in combat areas.

This device has the disadvantage that the armored protective screen protects only the side walls of the tank from the use of small arms, and the rear of the tank can be damaged when exposed to enemy small arms. Also, the front of the tank can be damaged by small arms of the enemy when shooting through the cab of the car.

The closest prototype is an improved tank armor protection device (RF Patent RU No. 215255 U1 "Improved tank armor protection device" [2], containing armored protective screens located along the side walls and along the rear wall of the tank, frame and stiffeners welded to the screens. Along the inner perimeter of each screen there are two rows of slots for installing a bullet-dissipating panel into the slots of the first row of each screen, and ceramic modules into the slots of the second row of the screen, while the armored screen, located along the rear wall of the tank, is attached to the ends of the armored screens located along the side walls. tanks.

The prototype has a significant drawback, expressed in the fact that the tank remains vulnerable when the enemy uses a quadrocopter equipped with a suspended grenade and which can drop this grenade remotely, at the command of the operator from above on the tank, the upper part of which remains open and unprotected. If, when falling from above, the grenade does not bounce, but remains on the tank, then after its explosion the tank can be significantly damaged. This shortcoming significantly affects the entire range of activities associated with the operation of a tank installed on a tanker.

The technical objective of the utility model is to increase the survivability of the tank through the use of a car with an armored cab, the use of removable armored protective screens along the side walls and along the back wall of the tanker tank, as well as through the use of a gable frame with a fixed mesh netting having small cells attached to upper sides of armored protective screens, above the tank.

The technical problem is achieved due to the fact that for the transport of fuel in areas of active hostilities, a tanker with an armored cab is used, on which an armored tank protection device is installed, containing armored protective screens placed on the right and left along the side walls and along the rear wall of the tank, and above the tank, a gable frame with a fixed chain-link mesh with small cells is attached to armored protective screens. At the same time, armored protective screens have grooves along the inner perimeter, placed in two rows. In the first row of slots, a bullet-dissipating panel is placed, in the second row of slots, ceramic modules are placed. This provides protection for the tank and the fuel in it not only along the perimeter from small arms bullets, but also from above when the enemy uses quadrocopters with a loaded suspended grenade, due to the new design of the armored protection device for a tanker tanker with an armored cab.

The technical problem is solved due to the fact that the device for armored protection of the tank of a tanker with an armored cab contains armored protective screens located along the side walls and along the rear wall of the tank, a frame welded to the screens and stiffeners, while there are two rows of grooves along the inner perimeter of each screen for installation in the grooves of the first row of the screen of a bullet-dissipating panel, and in the grooves of the second row of the screen of ceramic modules, characterized in that it is equipped with a gable frame attached above the tank from above to armored protective screens with a chain-link mesh fixed on the frame, having small cells.

Armored protection device for a tanker tanker with an armored cab consists of armored protective screens (4) placed along the side walls and along the rear wall of the tank (1), which includes stiffeners (6), and a frame (5) welded to the armored screen (4), while the frame (5) is attached to the tank (1) through the hole (10) with fixing bolts (11) screwed into the nuts (12) that are welded to the front and rear walls of the tank (1). The armored protective screen (4) has a folding side (15) connected by a loop (14) to the rest of the screen structure (4). Armored protective screens (4) have two rows of grooves (7) along their entire inner perimeter, for installation in the first row of grooves (7) of the metal frame (13) of a bullet-dissipating panel, consisting of horizontal panels welded to the metal frame (13) and to each other and vertical metal rods (8) densely filling the space of the bullet-dissipating panel. Vertical ceramic modules (9) are inserted into the grooves (7) of the second row of armored protective screens (4). After installing the armored protective screen (4) of the bullet-dissipating panel and ceramic modules (9) into the grooves (7), the folding side (15) is closed and rigidly fixed with a pin (16) through the hole for the pin (17).

On the front side, the tank (1) is protected from damage by small arms by an armored cabin (2), which in turn also protects the driver located in the cab from the use of small arms. There are loopholes (18) in the side windows of the armored cabin for the use of standard small arms to repel an enemy attack.

The armored screen (4) located along the rear wall of the tank (1) is bolted to the ends of the armored screens (4) located along the side walls of the tank (1).

From above the tank (1) to the armored protective screens (4), a gable frame (18) is bolted to the frame (18) with a chain-link mesh (19) fixed by a welded joint on the frame (18), having small cells.

The proposed device for armored protection of the tanker tanker with an armored cab works as follows: for the delivery of fuel in areas of active hostilities, a tanker truck with an armored cab (2) is used on the tanker (1) of which armored protective screens (4) are installed through a welded frame (5) with right and left sides, as well as behind the tank (1). At the armored protective screen (4), the side side (15) is folded down and, along the inner perimeter, into the grooves (7) of the first row through the open side (15), a bullet-dissipating panel is inserted, consisting of a metal frame (13) and welded to the metal frame (13) and to each other horizontal and vertical metal rods (8), densely filling the space of the bullet-dissipating panel. Due to its structure, the bullet-dispersing panel, when firing at the tank (1), changes the trajectory of the bullet and reduces its kinetic energy, thereby significantly reducing the effectiveness of aimed fire and the lethality of the ammunition. In view of the fact that the bullet, having changed the flight path, can still hit the tank (1) and damage it. For better protection of the tank (1), along the perimeter, vertical ceramic modules (9) are installed in the grooves (7) of the second row of armored protective screens (4). The most suitable for use in armoring are, as an option, corundum, carbide-boron or silicon carbide grades of ceramics. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that when a bullet hits the ceramic module (9), it is destroyed, absorbing the energy of the bullet, but since the protection is not continuous, but stacked from many small vertical ceramic modules (9), the destruction of one module (9) is not leads to the failure of the entire armored protective screen (4) and, consequently, to damage to the tank (1). In the event of the destruction of one ceramic module (9), it can be easily replaced with a new one when the tanker is withdrawn from the area of active combat operations.

The armored screen (4) located along the rear wall of the tank (1) is bolted to the ends of the armored screens (4) located along the side walls of the tank (1). For complete protection of the tank, on top of the armored protective screens (4), a gable frame (18) with a mesh netting (19) fixed by a welded joint, having small cells is bolted. A gable frame (18) with a chain-link mesh (19) protects the tank (1) when an enemy uses a quadrocopter equipped with a suspended grenade. Thus, with a probable remote drop of a suspended grenade on the tank (1) of a tanker, it will bounce off the inclined side of the gable frame (18) and, upon subsequent rupture, will not damage the tank (1), which significantly increases the survivability of the tank of a tanker with an armored cab when delivering fuel to units in areas of warfare.

The assembly of the armored protection device of the tank (1) of a tanker truck with an armored cab (2) provides for the preliminary mounting of the nuts (12) to the front and rear walls of the tank (1) by welding. Then, on the right and left sides of the tank (1), armored protective screens (4) are installed, welded to the frame (5), through the hole (10) with fixing bolts (11), screwed into the nuts (12), which are welded into the front and rear walls of the tank (1). After that, the screens (4) have a folding side (15) and a bullet-dispersing panel is inserted into the grooves (7) along the inner perimeter of the first row through the open side (15), and into the grooves (7) along the inner perimeter of the second row of the armored protective screen ( 4) vertical ceramic modules (9) are inserted, completely filling the space of the second row of the screen (4). After installing the bullet-dissipating panel and ceramic modules (9), the fold-down side (15) of each screen (4) is closed and rigidly fixed with a pin (16) through the hole for the pin (17). The stiffening ribs (6) give greater strength to the frame (5) of the armored protective screen (4). The armored screen (4) located along the rear wall of the tank (1) is bolted to the ends of the armored protective screens (4) located along the side walls of the tank (1).

Then, a chain-link mesh (19) with small cells is rigidly fixed to the gable frame (18) by a welded joint. After that, the gable frame (18) is bolted above the tank (1) to the upper sides of the armored protective screens (4). At the same time, the small size of the cells is necessary so that the grenade does not pass through the cell and does not damage the tank (1) during the explosion.

Thus, the presented armored protection device for a tanker tanker with an armored cab is novel and has new technical characteristics and differs significantly from the prototypes, providing a significant increase in the survivability of the tank, protecting it around the perimeter from small arms and shell fragments, and from above from suspended grenades dropped remotely from enemy quadrocopters . A technical solution may be the use of this device to protect the tank on the technical means of the fuel service of the Armed Forces or other power structures, when they are operated in areas of active combat operations.
