Description

The invention relates to techniques for providing protection and safety, and in particular to elements of active protection of critical objects, namely to weapons used to actively counter unauthorized entry into the territory of a protected object, including with the aim of committing a terrorist act, and can also be used in technology of counter-terrorism means for silently scattering containers with irritating and immobilizing means, light and sound means of distraction present and psychophysiological effects.

In modern conditions, when protecting especially important objects, it becomes necessary not only to detect and detain the violator, but often to liquidate him.

The proposed device can find application in solving the problems of active protection and defense of terrain, approaches, internal premises of objects of special importance, which include: nuclear power plants and other energy-producing enterprises, environmentally hazardous enterprises, storage and processing facilities for radioactive, explosive, narcotic, toxic substances .

Currently, the following weapons are known to be used in active protection systems of critical objects:

1. firearms in automatic detection and guidance systems,

2. anti-personnel and anti-tank engineering mines when mining the territory adjacent to the guarded object with the use of, inter alia, fire, chemical and light-signal mines,

3. electroshock conductive elements used in fencing the perimeter of the protected object with engineering security equipment,

4. physical security of the facility, carried out with the help of paramilitary guard units and specially trained service dogs.

The disadvantages of these weapons are the impossibility of completely eliminating the human factor, as well as the need to use powder charges and explosives.

Known means of destruction of non-lethal action of active protection systems based on smoke and gas generators filling the space with thick opaque smoke (gas); sound sirens generating sound waves of complex shape; stroboscopes generating blinding flashes of light [Active protection systems // Security systems, 2005, No. 2, p.151 - analogue; Application RU No. 94024228, IPC F 41 Н 9/06, G 08 В 7/00, publ. 27.08.1996 - analogue].

The disadvantage of all these tools is that they unmask the protected object when triggered, as well as the inability to adjust the degree of their impact on the intruder.

The most commonly used tool in the destruction systems of active defense systems of especially important objects is an engineering mine [Gutenko P. D., Matin G. A. Mine weapons. - M. 1988. - 95 p. Shevchuk M.K., Katurkin E.A. How to overcome engineering barriers. - M. 1961. - 182 p.].

Mines are defeated by the force of the blast wave and the fragments flying apart during the explosion and other explosion products. The use of mine weapons in safety and security technology is due to the availability of modern means of mechanizing the installation of mines, the use of a directional destruction charge and electronic fuses with an element of non-removability, a significant increase in the mechanical strength of mines and their components, as well as the possibility of their use in conjunction with a signaling and control device for engineering min [RF Patent No. 2215974, IPC F 41 H 11/00, publ. 10.11.2003 - analogue].

The disadvantages of this analogue are the inability to control the degree of impact on the intruder; the presence of a high-explosive effect, sound, flash, unmasking a protected object; the impossibility of use in closed rooms, since the detonation of mine devices can cause damage to the protected object; the inability to quickly recharge the lesion system; the difficulties of transferring most mining systems based on mining to a safe state; the high cost of the system through the use of expensive equipment and specially trained maintenance personnel; the ability to overcome the system using sapper tools.

Closest to this invention in technical essence is an electrodynamic gun, a device adopted as a prototype, which can be used as an electromagnetic accelerating device of striking elements in the means of destruction of active defense systems of critical objects [RF Patent No. 2116604, IPC F41 6/00, publ. . 07.27.1998 - prototype]. The device consists of a coil, a switching device, a capacitor bank with a charger and a projectile (damaging element) of electrically conductive material.

The disadvantages of this prototype is the inability to quickly recharge, as well as the inability to throw body groups of striking elements of various shapes.

The objective of the invention is to eliminate these drawbacks, namely reducing the dependence of the functioning of the damage system on the human factor, refusing to use powder charges and explosives, the ability to quickly recharge the system, the ability to throw groups of bodies of striking elements of various shapes, the absence of unmasking signs when triggered, expanding the range of striking elements without the need to make changes to the system, regulation of the degree of impact on the intruder, simplification removed I have a system with combat conditions.

The problem is solved in that a magnetic pulse propelling device is proposed as a means of destruction, consisting of a flat inductor coil, a battery of storage capacitors with a charging device, a switching device, a removable tape cartridge with striking elements, a tape rewinder and an electronic control system.

Damaging elements are placed on a tape of non-conductive material, which is installed in a removable cartridge. A removable cartridge is installed in the tape rewinder. The switching device, the storage capacitor bank, the tape rewinder are connected to an electronic control system that controls the switching of the discharge circuit, the charge on the storage capacitor bank, and the tape rewinder.

The device is placed on the territory or in the premises of the guarded object in such a way as to ensure the defeat of the intruder in the specified areas. The operation of the desired device is controlled by the detection system using the alarm system, which is based on the various principles of recording changes in the state of the environment when an intruder appears in the protected area.

The prior art does not reveal solutions that have signs that match the distinguishing features of the claimed invention and have the same effect as they, on the technical result, which consists in increasing the effectiveness of the defeat of violators and the ability to regulate modes of operation of the means of destruction.

The invention is illustrated by drawings.

Figure 1 shows a magnetic pulse propelling device together with a detection system for active protection systems of critical objects.

Figure 2 is a view of an inductor coil with a tape with striking elements.

A magnetic pulse throwing device contains the following elements: a flat spiral coil-inductor 1, a switching device 2, a battery of storage capacitors 3, a charger 4, a removable cassette 5 with tape 6 with ready-made striking elements 7, a tape rewinder 8, an electronic control system 9 .

The detection system contains the following elements: alarm system 10, intrusion detection sensors 11.

1 also shows a wall 12, a decorative coating 13, a lesion 14, an object 15.

The device operates as follows.

Depending on the required throwing speed of the striking elements, the capacitor bank 3 is charged by the charger 4 to the required voltage. Then, from the electronic control system 9, upon receipt of a signal from the sensors 11 about the detection of the fact of the intrusion, a control pulse is supplied to the switching device 2, which operates and closes the discharge circuit. The drive is discharged to a flat spiral coil-inductor 1 and a pulsed magnetic field arises in the space surrounding the coil-inductor, which induces eddy currents in electrically conductive throwing bodies. As a result of the interaction of eddy currents of propelled bodies (damaging elements placed on the tape) with the pulsed magnetic field of the inductor coil, magnetic pressure arises, knocking the damaging elements out of the tape due to the action of axial and radial forces of the magnetic field and accelerating the damaging elements, which then fly freely to meeting with the target 15. Next, the tape rewinder 8 of the removable cartridge 5 (recharging device) is activated, which rewinds the tape so that a new section of the tape with azhayuschimi elements located exactly above-coil inductor as shown in Figure 2. The scattering region of the striking elements (lesion field) 14 and, accordingly, the lesion zone is determined by the dimensions of the inductor coil and its spatial orientation.

The specified device allows you to achieve the following advantages compared to the prototype: the possibility of quick reloading, the ability to throw groups of bodies of striking elements of various shapes, the ability to control the throwing speed by changing the charge voltage of the drive of a magnetic pulse propelling device, thereby ensuring lethal or non-lethal action of the striking elements. Damaging elements of various shapes of non-lethal type, causing loss of orientation, pain, as a result of which the intruder loses motor activity, can also be charged into the tape of the cartridge.

When the device is triggered, there is no sound, flash, unmasking the protected object. The procedure for alerting the system and, especially, removing it from a combat state is greatly simplified. This occurs by discharging capacitive storage devices through shunts, bypassing the discharge circuit.

The flat spiral design of the inductor coil allows it to be embedded in wall panels, ceiling or floor, providing the required area of destruction and the direction of throwing of the striking elements. In addition, magnetic pulse throwing devices can be used for silently scattering containers with irritating and immobilizing means, light and sound means of distracting and psychophysiological effects and therefore can also be used in the technique of combating terrorism.
