Description

The invention relates to the field of military equipment and can be used in the construction of weapons installations of objects of armored weapons and as a stationary installation.

In the field of military equipment, namely in the field of automatic weapons installations, there is a problem of removing spent links and shells from the installation zone. This problem is especially relevant when creating remotely controlled installations deployed in limited-volume compartments of armored vehicles and installations with significant ammunition.

Known anti-aircraft machine-gun installation, including a cradle with a machine gun mounted on it, having the ability to rotate in a vertical plane and mounted on the turret of a tank turret hatch in a horizontal plane. In this installation, a fabric bag with an inlet metal part mounted on the cradle is used as a tap and a hopper for collecting the links of the fired cartridge strip. The cartridges are removed by simply pouring them onto the tank turret (T-72A tank. Technical description and operating instructions. Book two. Part 1. P.191. - M.: Military Publishing House, 1988).

It is known to mount a coaxial 7.62 mm machine gun, selected as a prototype, where the machine gun is mounted on a cradle of the main gun with a bracket that can be rotated in a vertical plane, and together with the turret has the ability to rotate in a horizontal plane relative to the hull. In this installation, an upper catcher mounted on the cradle is used as a tap and sleeve, and a lower catcher is also attached to the gun’s cradle (Tank T-72A. Technical description and operating manual) as a hopper for collecting links and sleeves of a fired cartridge belt. Book Two. Part 1. P.77-81. - M.: Military Publishing House, 1988).

The main disadvantage of these installations is the location of the cartridge case directly under the weapon on the cradle, which leads to an increase in the height of the installation, an increase in the load on the vertical guidance drive, limitation of the cartridge case cartridge size and, as a result, limitation of the amount of ammunition spent without releasing the cartridge case - linker. In addition, the need for a large dimension in height often determines the remote location of the installation, which increases its visibility and reduces protection from enemy weapons.

The objective of the invention is the creation of the installation of automatic weapons, ensuring the removal of waste links and sleeves from the installation area.

The creation of such an installation will allow to obtain the following technical results:

- reducing the dimensions of the installation of automatic weapons in height, which makes it possible to place it in limited volumes (for example, in the compartments of the fenders of armored vehicles) and reduces the visibility of the armored vehicle;

- an increase in the ammunition spent without servicing the installation of weapons, which in real combat conditions increases the combat effectiveness of the installation of weapons by eliminating the time to release the cartridge case and prevents the defeat of crew members when servicing the installation in case of its remote location;

- reducing the load on the drive vertical guidance by eliminating the location of the sleeve-link collector directly under the weapon on the swinging part (cradle).

The objective of the invention is solved in that the known installation of automatic weapons, made in the form of a base with a pivot bearing mounted on it, containing a cradle with a retractor, sleeve sleeve and automatic weapon mounted on it, having the ability to rotate relative to the pivot support in a plane perpendicular to its plane of rotation, according to the invention is equipped with a mechanism for removing links and sleeves of a fired cartridge strip, made in the form of a drive disk with blades mounted on a cradle or on support, or on the base.

In addition, to prevent the removed links and sleeves of the fired cartridge strip from falling into undesirable areas of the installation itself or into units and mechanisms located in the immediate vicinity of it, on the cradle or on the swing support, or on the base, barriers can be installed, and to give removable links and sleeves of a certain direction of movement in addition to fences, trays can be installed.

When installing a drive disk with blades on a rotary support or on the basis of, if necessary, directing the links and sleeves of the fired cartridge strip to a specific area of the disk, when changing the position of the automatic weapon in the vertical and horizontal direction, the link and sleeve can be equipped with flexible compensators.

Figure 1 shows a structural diagram of the claimed installation with a mechanism for removing links and sleeves of a shot cartridge strip, made in the form of a drive disk with blades mounted on a cradle; figure 2 is the same top view; figure 3 is a section aa in figure 1.

Installation of automatic weapons contains a base 1, for example, the body of an armored combat vehicle. A rotary support 2 is installed on the base, for example, a tower of an armored fighting vehicle, which can be rotated relative to the base to provide guidance angles for installing automatic weapons in the horizontal direction. A cradle 3 is installed on the rotary support 2, which serves to secure the automatic weapon 4 and has the ability to rotate in a vertical plane to ensure vertical installation pointing angles. On the cradle 3, in the region where the spent links and sleeves are ejected from the automatic weapon, the link 5 and sleeve 6 are fixed, which serve to guide the spent links and sleeves into the area of the drive disk 7 with blades mounted also on the cradle and rotating in a plane parallel to the plane of the base of the cradle.

When firing from an automatic weapon, the spent links and sleeves, passing through the tap and sleeve, fall onto a rotating drive disk 7 with blades and under the action of centrifugal force and when interacting with the blade blades are removed in a plane parallel to the plane of the base of the cradle.

Thus, the use of a drive disk with blades mounted on a cradle in an automatic weapon installation allows you to remove the used links and sleeves from the automatic weapon installation zone, exclude the installation of a sleeve-collector directly under the weapon on the cradle and obtain the claimed technical results: reducing the automatic weapon installation dimensions in height, an increase in the ammunition spent without releasing the cartridge case and reducing the load on the vertical guidance drive.

Figure 4 shows a structural diagram of the claimed installation with a mechanism for removing links and sleeves of a fired cartridge strip, made in the form of a drive disk with blades mounted on a rotary support; figure 5 is the same top view; figure 6 is a section bB in figure 1.

Installation of automatic weapons contains a base 1, for example, the body of an armored combat vehicle. A rotary support 2 is installed on the base, for example, a tower of an armored fighting vehicle, which can be rotated relative to the base to provide guidance angles for installing automatic weapons in the horizontal direction. A cradle 3 is installed on the rotary support 2, which serves to secure the automatic weapon 4 and has the ability to rotate in a vertical plane to ensure vertical installation pointing angles. On the cradle 3, in the region where the spent links and sleeves are ejected from the automatic weapon, a link 5 and sleeve 6 are fixed, which serve to guide the spent links and sleeves into the area of the drive disk 7 with blades mounted on a rotary support and rotating in a plane parallel to its plane of rotation.

If it is necessary to direct the links and sleeves of the fired cartridge strip to a specific area of the disk when changing the position of the automatic weapon in the vertical direction, the tap and the tap can be equipped with flexible compensators 8, the upper part of which is fixed on the lower part of the tap and sleeve, and the bottom on the swivel support.

When firing automatic weapons, the spent links and sleeves, passing through the tap, sleeve and flexible compensators, fall on the rotating drive disk 7 with the blades and, under the action of centrifugal force and when interacting with the disk blades, are removed in a plane parallel to the plane of rotation of the rotary support.

Thus, the use in the installation of automatic weapons drive disk with blades mounted on a rotary support, also allows you to get the technical results described for the first version of the installation.

In addition, in this embodiment, the constancy of the position of the removal mechanism relative to the rotary support when pointing the unit allows you to place on it (for example, on the tower of an armored vehicle) a hopper 9 for collecting removable links and a hopper 10 for collecting spent cartridges, which is an additional technical result.

Figure 7 shows a structural diagram of the claimed installation with a mechanism for removing links and sleeves of a fired cartridge strip, made in the form of a drive disk with blades mounted on the base; on Fig is the same top view; Fig.9 is a section bb In Fig.7.

Installation of automatic weapons contains a base 11, for example, an armored compartment of the fenders of a combat vehicle. On the basis of the installed rotary support 12, having the ability to rotate relative to the base to provide guidance angles for installing automatic weapons in the horizontal direction. A cradle 3 is installed on the rotary support 12, which serves to secure the automatic weapon 4 and has the ability to rotate in a vertical plane to ensure vertical installation angles. On the cradle 3 in the region where the spent links and sleeves are ejected from the automatic weapon, the link 5 and sleeve 6 are fixed, which serve to guide the spent links and sleeves into the area of the drive disk 7 with blades mounted on the base and rotating in a plane parallel to the base.

If it is necessary to direct the links and sleeves of the fired cartridge strip to a specific area of the disk when changing the position of the automatic weapon in the vertical and horizontal direction, the tap and tap can be equipped with flexible compensators 8, the upper part of which is fixed on the lower part of the tap and cartridge tap, and the lower on the base or on a rotating support.

When firing from an automatic weapon, the spent links and sleeves passing through the tap, sleeve and flexible compensators fall on a rotating drive disk with blades and, under the action of centrifugal force and when interacting with the disk blades, are removed in a plane parallel to the base.

Thus, the use in the installation of automatic weapons drive disk with blades, mounted on the base, also allows you to get the technical results described for the first and second installation options.

In addition, in this embodiment, the constancy of the position of the removal mechanism relative to the base allows you to place on it (for example, in the armored compartment of the fenders) a hopper 13 for collecting removable links and a hopper 14 for collecting spent cartridges, which is an additional technical result.

Also, in all variants of the design of the installation to prevent the removal of the removed links and sleeves of the fired cartridge strip in undesirable areas of the installation itself or in the nodes and mechanisms located in close proximity to it, on the cradle 3 (Fig. 1), on the swivel support 2 (Fig. .4, 5), based on 11 (Figs. 7, 8), fences 15 (Figs. 1-9) can be installed, the distance from the lower edge "G" of the fencings (Fig. 1) to the surface "D" of the disk must be less than the minimum size of the removed link or sleeve.

To give the removed links and sleeves a certain direction of movement in addition to the fences on the cradle 3 (Fig. 1), on the swivel support 2 (Fig. 4, 5), on the basis of 11 (Fig. 7, 8), trays 16 (Fig. .1-9). For example, the installation of trays on the swivel support 2 (Figs. 4, 5) according to the second embodiment makes it possible to direct the removed links and sleeves into the bins 9 and 10 (Fig. 4), mounted on the swivel support. And the installation of the trays on the basis of 11 (Fig.7, 8) according to the third embodiment makes it possible to direct the removed links and sleeves into the bunkers 13 and 14 (Fig.7, 8) of the armored compartment.

Thus, the use of a drive disk with blades mounted on a cradle, on a swivel support or on a base in an automatic weapon installation allows you to remove the spent links and sleeves from the automatic weapon installation zone, exclude the installation of a cartridge case directly under the weapon on the cradle and obtain the claimed technical results : reducing the height of the automatic weapons installation, increasing the ammunition spent without releasing the cartridge case and reducing the load on ivod vertical guidance. And the use of a drive disk with blades in plants according to options 2 and 3 provides an additional technical result - the ability to collect removable links and sleeves into bunkers.

The implementation of this invention in the third embodiment made it possible to place two remotely controlled installations of a 30-mm automatic grenade launcher in the armored compartments of the fenders of the tank support vehicle (BMPT), which are currently limited in height, and which have successfully passed a series of measures for serial production.

The essential features proposed in the invention, ensuring the achievement of the claimed technical result, are not identified from the prior art and do not explicitly follow, therefore, the proposed technical solution meets the criterion of "novelty."

The proposed solution meets the criterion of "inventive step", because it does not follow explicitly from the prior art for a specialist.
