APPARATUS FOR POSITIONING AND SECURING A PROJECTILE HOLDER ON ITS PAD BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to apparatus for positioning and securing a projectile holder on its pad, and particularly a holder in the form of a container.
Certain types of missiles must be capable of remaining on its launching pad, ready for firing over an indeterminate period which may amount to a year or more. To keep the missiles in operative condition they are placed inside sealed containers which are provided with internal guide rails for guidance of the missiles at the time oflaunching.
The container is carried on a launching pad constituted as a sheet metal carriage. The container must be maintained in an absolutely precise and reproducible position on the carriage, and its attachment must not admit any displacement or accidental shifting. Furthermore, the installation of the container on the carriage must be rapid and easy.
It follows from the foregoing that apparatus for attaching the container on its launching pad must satisfy the following requirements:
1. It must permit the container to be easily placed on its pad in an accurate and reproducible manner;
2. it must be readily accessible, easy to handle and perfectly efficient and reliable;
3. it must positively prevent any possibility of accidental displacement or the container under the action of the stresses .to which it is subject on launching or under the effect of vibration or impact from various sources;
4. it must permit several containers to be mounted abreast so as to form a multiple launcher and must not require any access between the containers;
5. it must provide a minimum lateral spacing to minimize the lateral width of the pad;
6. there must not be any substantial projections of the attaching means on the pad in order to avoid any damage to the container when it is being installed on the pad;
7. it must be protected against corrosion and electrolytic effects; especially when the installation is to be used on navel vessels.
An object of the present invention is to provide a device for positioning and securing a container on its pad which satisfies the conditions set forth above.
The device according to the invention essentially comprises firstly a slide track and stop means by which a precise and reproducible location of the container on the pad will be obtained and secondly a means for locking the container on the pad to prevent any fortuitous displacement of the container.
Other objects, features, advantages and details of the present invention will become apparent the following description taken hereafter with reference to the attached drawing which shows by way of example one possible embodiment according to the invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. 1 is a side elevation view which diagrammatically illustrates an assembly of a container on its pad showing the locking devices and positioning stops;
FIG. 2 is a cross section taken along line 2 2 in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a cross section similar to FIG. 2 but showing two containers on a common pad;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view on enlarge scale of the rear locking mechanism in unlocked position;
FIG. 5 shows the rear mechanism in locked position;
FIG. 6 is a sectional view on enlarged scale of the front locking mechanism in unlocked position; and
FIG. 7 shows the front mechanism in locked position.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION Referring to FIG. I of the drawing therein is shown a container C which contains a projectile such as a rocket or missile (not visible. The projectile is fixedly mounted in the container on guides (not shown) by which the projectile is accurately guided from the container at the time of launching. The container has two rigid frames F by which the container is positioned and secured on a launching pad or ramp R.
Each frame F has two support points with the pad, making a total of four support points for each container. The frames each carry a support foot at each support point, and the support feet at the right side of the container are designated by numeral 1 while the support feet at the left side of the container are designated by numeral 2. As seen in FIG. 2, the support feet have longitudinal side edges which are inclined towards one another in a downwards direction, while as seen in FIG. 1 the transverse front and rear edges of the feet are inclined away from one another in a downwards direction.
At the right side of the pad, slide rails 3 are fixed at the front and back, and the feet 1 are guided in the rails 3 with negligible play. At the left side of the pad, slide rails 5 and 6 are fixed and rails 5 and 6 have flat, upper surfaces by which the rails serve as slide bearings for the feet 2. The container thus is perfectly centered laterally on the pad by engagement of the feet 1, 2 with the rails 3, 5, 6 and the lateral position is maintained by the flanks 20 of slide rails 3 with the feet I.
The longitudinal position of the container is deter mined by engagement of the feet I and 2 at the rear of the container with stops 21 on slide rails 3 and 5.
Four locking mechanisms are provided, one at each foot for securing the container to the pad.
The locking mechanisms for the feet at the rear frame serve to lock the feet against forward movement while holding the feet against stops 21. This differs slightly from the locking mechanisms for the feet at the front frame which lock the feet against forward movement but provide no stops for rearward movement thereof.
As seen in FIGS. 4 and 5, the rear locking mechanism essentially comprises a hook coupling 7 hinged around an axle 8. The axle 8 is mounted for longitudinal movement by attachment to a screw 9 on the end of which a detachable crank can be fitted. By turning the crank, the screw 9, which is threaded in rail 5, can advance or retract axle 8 thereby to move hook coupling 7 towards or away from the front face of the rear foot.
The two normal positions of the coupling thus are:
l. a locked position in which the coupling 7 is drawn rearwardly by the screw 9 and is strongly applied on the one hand under the slide rail and on the other hand against the inclined front face of the rear foot. In this position, the foot, resting on the slide rail, is forced against stop 21 and is locked at the front by the coupling 7 thus becoming locked longitudinally and vertically.
2. a retracted position in which the coupling 7 has been displaced forwardly by screw 9 and undergoes horizontal tilting at the end of its travel.
A pin 12 is fixed on the pad in the path of coupling 7 to insure downward tilting thereof if this should not be produced under the weight of the coupling. The purpose of tilting the coupling 7 to a downward cleared position is to prevent the coupling from serving as a projection that might damage the container at the time of its placement on the pad.
As in the rear mechanism, the front mechanism comprises a hook coupling 7 and a drive screw 10. However an elastic means inclusive of a spring 11 is interposed between the screw and the axle 8 of the coupling so as to allow the latter to follow any movements of the front frame resulting from differential expansion between the container and the pad. This may be considerable if the container is made of a light weight alloy such as aluminum alloy or the like, and the pad is made of steel.
The front feet resting on the guide rails are locked by the couplings and are thus locked against vertical movement and forward longitudinal movement while being free at the rear.
The container is placed on the pad by means of detachable guide arms 13 mounted on one or both sides of the pad according to accessibility. In the case of multiple container, a fixed separating partition 14 is mounted on the pad between adjacent containers both for guiding the containers at the time of installation and for fire protection between containers.
The container is lowered and placed on the pad, slightly forward of its final position to engage the feet 1 at the right side of the container in the guide rails 3. The container then slides rearwards by gravity until the feet contact the stops 21 carried on the rear guide rails. Then the four feet are locked in their guide rails in succession commencing with the rear feet.
Installation is facilitated by the trapezoidal shape of the feet and the guide rails 3.
Access to the locking cranks is readily available since the space fore and aft of the pad of necessity must be free.
There are no mechanical parts encroaching laterally in the space occupied by the container, and several containers can therefore be mounted side by side in a minimum of space.
Protection against corrosion and electrolytic effect is obtained by coating the feet with either a plastic dope or a galvanizing layer of zinc. To facilitate the coating operation, the feet are detachable from the frames. This arrangement allows their replacement, if necessary, at the time of overhauling the containers.
The present invention has been described only by way of reference to a preferred embodiment. Numerous variations can be made thereto without exceeding the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the following claims. In particular, the container frames can be different in number from the two which have been shown, and they may be integral with the container or not.
