Description

The present invention relates to military equipment, concerns a universal base for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm self-propelled artillery guns (SAO) of all types.

Currently, there are no analogues of a non-mechanized universal base for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm SAO.

Until now, rimmed cases for 152 mm SAO have been placed and stored in self-propelled artillery pieces in wooden boxes.

The disadvantage of using boxes for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm SAO is:

- large dimensions: the size of the box is 1.0 × 0.57 × 0.25 m, the total occupied volume of 25 boxes will be equal to 3.56 m ³ , for use as part of the SAO, a special car is required for transporting cartridge cases and additional personnel ;

unreliability and insecurity of storage: wood is a fragile material subject to rotting and burning;

- placement of cartridge cases in boxes requires operations to remove them from the box and prepare for work, which increases the preparation time, requires additional personnel.

The objective of the invention is to create a non-mechanized universal base for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm self-propelled artillery guns. The lack of mechanization is dictated by the need to simplify and reduce the cost of the device as much as possible, as well as to exclude the use of additional energy sources.

The technical result from the use of the proposed invention is to reduce the size, increase the safety and reliability of use, reduce the time for preparing the sleeves for work.

This task is achieved in that the universal base for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm self-propelled artillery pieces includes a base on which sections are fixed, each of which contains guides, ties, a tray, bushings, an axis, a spring, a grip and a handle , at the same time, guides are fixed on the base, made in the form of longitudinal elements with grooves for accommodating the rims of the sleeves, installed opposite each other and connected to each other by means of ties, on the axes of which rolling bearings are installed on both sides, a tray with the possibility of longitudinal movement, on one of the guides, located on one of the longitudinal side of the tray, bushings with a bearing inside are fixed, an axis is installed in the bushings, which is a long shaft, with the possibility of reciprocating and rotational movement, a spring is installed on the axis on one side , a tong with curly elements distributed along the axis is rigidly fixed on the axis, and a handle is fixed on one of the ends of the axis; the base is made in the form of a flat metal frame, on which a solid metal sheet is fixed on top; each section is designed to accommodate and store five rimmed cases; sections are fixed on the base; the tray is made in the form of a flat plate with rounded edges and a longitudinal hole in the middle; the spring is a cylindrical compression spring; curly elements in shape are close to a triangle with rounded sides, repeating the rounding of the sleeves; the handle is made in the form of a figured metal pipe; a universal base is made with a size of 2.7×0.98×0.6 m, a volume of 1.58 m ³ made of steel.

Figure 4 shows a universal base for placement and storage of shells for 152-mm CAO guns, a longitudinal section.

Structurally, a universal base for placing and storing cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm SAO in Fig.1-4 contains:

1 - base,

2 - sections,

Each section 2 contains:

3 - guides,

4 - couplers,

5 - tray,

6 - bushings,

7 - axis,

8 - spring,

9 - grip,

10 - handle,

11 - sleeves.

The base 1 is made in the form of a flat metal frame, on which a solid metal sheet is fixed from above.

Each section 2 is designed to accommodate and store, mainly, five sleeves 11 with rims. Sections 2 are joined to each other and fixed on base 1.

Guides 3 are fixed on the base 1. The guides 3 are made in the form of longitudinal elements with grooves designed to accommodate the rims of the sleeves 11. The guides 3 are placed opposite each other and connected to each other by means of ties 4.

Couplers 4 are cylindrical shafts with threaded ends, on the axes of which rolling bearings are installed on both sides.

Trays 5 are installed between the guides 3 on the rolling bearings of the couplers 4 with the possibility of longitudinal movement. Each tray 5 is made in the form of a flat plate with rounded edges and a longitudinal hole in the middle, which is made to facilitate the construction.

On one of the guides 3, located on one of the longitudinal side of the tray 5, two bushings 6 are fixed. Each bushing 6 contains a metal case with a polyamide bearing inside.

In the bushings 6, an axis 7 is installed with the possibility of longitudinal and rotational movement. Axis 7 is a long shaft.

A spring 8 is installed on one of the sides on the axle 7, a grip 9 is rigidly fixed on the axle, and a handle 10 is fixed on the same side (on the same side where the spring is installed) of the axle.

Spring 8 is a cylindrical compression spring, dressed on axle 7 and serving for its reciprocating movement.

The grip 9 contains curly elements, in shape close to a triangle with rounded sides along the radius, repeating the radius of the rounding of the sleeves 11. One grip contains, for example, five curly elements that are evenly distributed along the axis 7. The curly elements of the grip 9 are separators between the sleeves 11 installed in guides 1 on trays 5.

Each handle 10 is made in the form of a figured metal pipe. The handle 10 serves to rotate and longitudinally move the axis 6.

The proposed universal base for placement and storage of shells of 152-mm self-propelled artillery guns is performed mainly with a size of 2.7×0.98×0.6 m, a volume of 1.58 m ³ from durable and non-combustible materials, for example, steel.

The proposed universal base for placement and storage of cartridge cases with a protruding rim for 152-mm self-propelled artillery guns works as follows.

Sections 2 are interconnected by means of the base 1. The connected sections 2 are fixed on the base 1. Five sleeves 11 are loaded into each section 2 in the following order. The operator, holding the handle 10, turns it 90 degrees up. At the same time, in the bushings 6, the axis 7 turns and raises the grip 9 located on it with curly elements. After lifting the grip 9, the operator pulls out the tray 5, installs the sleeve 11 on it and pushes the tray 5 to its original position. Moreover, the sleeves 11 are installed in such a way that their rim enters the groove of the guides 3. Next, the operator turns the axis 7 by the handle 10, pushing the grip 9 forward towards himself, turning it 90 degrees down. In this case, the first of the shaped elements of the grip 9 is in front of the sleeve 11. Then the operator pushes the sleeve 11 by the grip 9 away from himself until it stops, the sleeve 11 is in the next position. The operator turns the handle 10 90 degrees upward, turning the axle 7 in the bushings 6 and lifting the grip 9 located on it. After lifting the grip 9, the operator pulls out the tray 5 to load the next sleeve 11. The operation is repeated depending on the number of loaded sleeves. After loading all the sleeves 11, the operator turns the handle 10 90 degrees down, turning the axle 7 in the bushings 6, lowering the grip 9 located on it with curly elements that separate and fix the sleeves 11. The sleeves 11 are unloaded from the universal base in the following order. The operator, holding the handle 10, pulls out the tray 5 and the sleeves 11 located on it with a movement towards himself. Then he turns the handle 10 90 degrees upward, turning the axis 7 in the bushings 6 and lifting the grip 9 located on it, freeing the sleeves 11. Removes the first sleeve 11 from tray 5. Next, the operator pushes the axle 7 with the grip 9 by the handle 10, turns it 90 degrees down and pulls out the next sleeve 11 towards himself. After extending the sleeve 11, the operator turns the handle 10 90 degrees up, freeing the next sleeve for removal. The operation is repeated depending on the number of unloaded sleeves 11. After unloading all the sleeves 11, the operator pushes the tray 5 and turns the handle 10 90 degrees down, turning the axle 7 in the bushings 6 and lowering the grip 9 located on it to its original position.

The present invention allows to place in self-propelled artillery guns mainly 25 shells 11, ensuring their reliable mechanical fixation by the rims in the guides 3.

The dimensions of the proposed universal base and its volume are more than two times less than the volume occupied by the sleeves in the case of their placement and storage in boxes. This allows you to increase the transportable stock of sleeves on the product and reduce the volume they occupy.

The manufacture of a universal base from strong, durable and non-combustible materials ensures the reliability and safety of placing and storing shells of 152-mm self-propelled artillery guns of all types.

In addition, the sleeves in the universal base are prepared in advance and are immediately ready for use, which reduces the time for their preparation for work.

Below is an example of a specific implementation of the proposed universal base for placement and storage of 152-mm self-propelled artillery shells.

Example 1

The proposed universal base is currently implemented and used in the 2S43 product, which allows you to place up to 25 cartridge cases in it.

The 2S43 product has been produced since 2020 and has confirmed its effectiveness based on the results of preliminary tests completed in 2021. The 2S43 product itself is presented as a replacement for a towed SAO in 152 mm caliber, in which the shells are placed in wooden boxes and transported on a separate vehicle.

The use of a universal base in the 2S43 product made it possible to more than halve the volume occupied by the sleeves, compared with the volume of the sleeves occupied by them if they were placed and stored in boxes.

In turn, the compact placement of the shells made it possible to implement the placement of a universal base in the armored compartment 2S43, and therefore there was no need to use additional vehicles to move the shells, and the number of service personnel was reduced.
