Description

The simulator belongs to the means of training guided weapons operators, improving their professional skills and can be used as part of educational and training facilities in training centers, educational institutions of the Ministry of Defense and, directly, army units.

A known simulator for training operators of an weapons complex located on a mobile carrier, containing a gunner’s workstation, commander’s workplace, instructor’s workstation, intercom, hardware-software complex with a computer for controlling the training process, while the gunner’s workplace is additionally equipped with a thermal imaging simulator sight and video viewing device, the commander’s workplace is additionally equipped with a simulator of a television sight and video viewing devices ohm (RF patent for utility model No. 48663, G 09 B 9/08, 05.16.2005).

On the simulator, it is possible to train not only operators of guided weapon systems, but also operators of firing at air targets and automatic rifles from the manpower of a potential enemy. However, it lacks additional and emergency training modes.

The authors were faced with the task of creating a simulator that allows improving the quality of operator training by bringing the training conditions closer to real conditions and in conditions of additional and emergency conditions when using all types of weapons that are part of the complex.

The problem is solved due to the fact that in the well-known simulator for training operators of the weapons complex, located on a movable medium containing the gunner’s workstation with a thermal imitator

sight, control unit, simulator of a range finder sight and video viewing device, commander’s workstation with a television sight simulator, control unit and video viewing device, instructor’s workstation, intercom and hardware-software complex, the gunner’s workstation is additionally equipped with simulators of the sight’s protective cover- rangefinder, gun stop, tower stop, azimuth indicator, and the commander’s workplace - by imitators of a protective cover for an optical sight, an armor plate of a thermal imaging sight, optical sight and switch cartridge strips.

Simulators of the protective cover of the sight-range finder, gun stop, tower stop, azimuth indicator are connected to the control unit of the gunner’s workstation, and simulators of the protective cover of the optical sight, the armor of the thermal imaging sight, optical sight, switch of cartridge cartridges are connected to the control unit of the commander’s workstation.

The inventive simulator has a set of essential features not known from the prior art for devices of this purpose, which allows us to conclude that the criterion of "novelty" for the utility model.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated using the drawings, where:

figure 1 presents the structural diagram;

figure 2 - the workplace of the gunner;

figure 3 - the workplace of the commander.

The simulator contains a workplace of 1 gunner, a workplace of 2 commanders, a workplace of 3 instructors, a hardware-software complex 4.

The gunner’s workstation 1 contains simulators 6–11 of a rangefinder sight, a vertical guidance drive, a horizontal guidance drive, a gunner’s console, a gunner’s control panel and a thermal imaging sight, respectively, a video inspection device 12, intercom device 13, seat 14.

The commander’s workstation 2 contains a control unit 15, simulators 16 ÷ 20 ballistic computer, emergency control panel, commander’s panel, commander’s control panel and thermal imaging sight, respectively, video inspection device 12, intercom 13, seat 14.

The gunner’s workstation 1 is additionally equipped with simulators 21 ÷ 24 of the protective cover of the rangefinder sight, gun stop, turret stop and azimuth indicator, respectively.

The workplace of the 2 commanders is additionally equipped with simulators 25 ÷ 28 of the protective cover of the optical sight, the armored cover of the thermal imaging sight, the optical sight and the cartridge cartridge switch, respectively.

The simulator works as follows.

At the workplace, 3 instructors are entered into the database of information about the trainees, the training task for execution is launched, and it can be selected from the existing database or created again by the instructor. In addition, the conditions for completing the task are set: time of year, time of day, temperature, wind speed and direction, type and quantity of ammunition, types of malfunctions, etc. After setting the initial data, the process of completing the task by the trainees begins.

Digital signals about the state of the controls of the simulators 6 ÷ 11, 21 ÷ 23 of the gunner’s workstation 1 are sent to the control unit 5. Digital signals about the state of the controls of the simulators 16 ÷ 20, 25 ÷ 28 of the workplace 2 commanders arrive at the control unit 15. In blocks 5 and 15 of the control is the primary processing of input information. In addition to digital signals, analog signals from simulators 6, 10, 11, 19 and 20 are received in control units 5 and 15. In control units 5 and 15, analog signals are converted to digital. Management of the state of the display organs installed in the simulators is also carried out with

using blocks 5 and 15 of the control, built on the basis of micro-computers, for example, ATmegal6 company ATMEL.

Thus, the direct control of the work of simulators 6 ÷ 11 and 16 ÷ 28, control over the state of the controls is carried out by blocks 5 and 15, installed at the workstations 1 and 2 of the gunner and commander.

Power supply of blocks 5 and 15, as well as the simulators 6–11 and 16–28 of the workstations 1 and 2 of the gunner and commander, is carried out from the workplace of 3 instructors. From control units 5 and 15 to the agro-industrial complex 4 of the instructor’s workstation 3, information is constantly received on the state of the control bodies of the workplace simulators 1 and 2 of the gunner and commander. Based on the information received, APK 4 is working out an algorithm for functioning simulated systems and devices of the weapons complex. In accordance with the algorithm being worked out, APK 4 receives information on the state of the display elements of the workplaces 1 and 2 of the gunner and commander in control units 5 and 15, which directly control each display element.

AIC 4 forms images of the phono-target environment observed by the gunner and commander.

The information obtained by APK 4 from simulators of jobs 1 and 2 of the gunner and commander is used in the formation of the image of the background-target situation. AIC 4 workplaces 3 instructors in the process of completing the training task fixes errors in the actions of the trainees, and at the end of the task, the students automatically set grades.

Intercom devices 13 installed at workplaces 1, 2 of the gunner and commander provide intercom communication between the trainees and the instructor, and also provide the ability to supply sound signals to trainees when they commit erroneous actions. As intercoms can be used, for example, devices intercom R-124 NPP "Wave", Moscow.

The applicant company has developed design documentation for the proposed utility model and a prototype has been manufactured.

Thus, the proposed simulator can be repeatedly reproduced and used as a technical training tool for the training of operators of the weapons complex, located on a mobile carrier, for example, on an upgraded infantry fighting vehicle (BMP-2), which allows us to conclude that the claimed utility model meets the criterion " industrial applicability.
