Description

CABINE BLINDEE POUR VEHICULE ARMORED CABIN FOR VEHICLE
Le domaine technique de l'invention est celui des cabines blindées pour véhicule et en particulier des dispositifs permettant d'assurer la protection des planchers de ces cabines .The technical field of the invention is that of armored cabins for vehicles and in particular devices for protecting the floors of these cabins.
Il est connu de disposer en dessous des planchers de véhicules des surprotections et en particulier des surprotections qui sont disposées à distance du plancher. Cependant, les planchers sont généralement réalisés par l'assemblage et la soudure de différentes plaques métalliques. Un tel assemblage est d'autant plus nécessaire que différents organes doivent être logés sous le plancher.It is known to have under the vehicle floors overprotection and in particular overprotection which are arranged at a distance from the floor. However, floors are usually made by joining and welding different metal plates. Such an assembly is all the more necessary that different organs must be housed under the floor.
Ce dernier doit donc s'adapter aux volumes de ces organes et il est concrètement nécessaire de réaliser des caissons mécano' soudés, solidaires du plancher et entourant lesdits organes .It should therefore be adapted to the volumes of these organs and it is actually necessary to carry out decompression mechanical 'welded, integral with the floor and surrounding said bodies.
Les zones de soudure des plaques constituent alors des zones de fragilisation au niveau desquelles le plancher risque de se rompre lorsqu'il est soumis au choc et au souffle résultant de l'explosion d'une mine ou bien d'un engin explosif improvisé.The weld zones of the plates then constitute zones of weakness at which the floor may break when subjected to impact and blast resulting from the explosion of a mine or an improvised explosive device.
La mise en place d'une surprotection, si elle permet dans une certaine mesure d'atténuer les effets du choc et du souffle, ne permet pas d'empêcher de façon certaine la rupture du plancher au niveau des zones ainsi fragilisées.The introduction of overprotection, if it allows to some extent to mitigate the effects of shock and breath, does not prevent some way to break the floor at the weakened areas.
L'invention a pour but de proposer une cabine blindée permettant de pallier de tels inconvénients.The invention aims to provide a shielded cabin to overcome such drawbacks.
Ainsi, l'invention a pour objet une cabine blindée pour véhicule, cabine comportant au moins un plancher sur lequel est fixée au moins une paroi latérale, plancher ou paroi qui se trouve disposé au-dessus d'au moins un organe mécanique ou d'un moyen de mobilité, cabine caractérisée en ce que le plancher et/ou au moins une paroi latérale est constituée par une plaque de protection présentant au moins une zone courbe coiffant au moins partiellement l'organe mécanique ou le moyen de mobilité. Le plancher pourra comporter au moins une zone courbe coiffant un essieu.Thus, the subject of the invention is an armored cabin for a vehicle, a cabin comprising at least one floor on which at least one side wall, floor or wall is fixed which is disposed above at least one mechanical member or mobility means, cabin characterized in that the floor and / or at least one side wall is constituted by a protection plate having at least one curved area capping at least partially the mechanical member or the mobility means. The floor may include at least one curved area capping an axle.
Avantageusement, la ou les zones courbes du plancher s'étendent sur sensiblement toute la largeur de la cabine, le plancher comportant ainsi au moins deux parties sensiblement planes et parallèles l'une à l'autre séparées par la ou les zones courbes .Advantageously, the curved zone or zones of the floor extend over substantially the entire width of the cabin, the floor thus comprising at least two substantially flat portions parallel to one another separated by the curved zone or zones.
Suivant un autre mode de réalisation, le plancher ou une paroi latérale comporte au moins une zone courbe coiffant au moins en partie les moyens de mobilité tels que des roues ou des chenilles.According to another embodiment, the floor or a side wall comprises at least one curved area at least partly covering the mobility means such as wheels or caterpillars.
La zone courbe pourra ainsi former au moins une goulotte latérale concave.The curved zone may thus form at least one concave lateral chute.
La cabine blindée pourra ainsi comporter de chaque côté, une goulotte latérale s ' étendant sur sensiblement toute la longueur de la cabineThe armored cab can thus comprise on each side, a lateral chute extending over substantially the entire length of the cabin
La plaque de protection pourra être une plaque en aluminium pliée. L'épaisseur de cette plaque de protection sera d'au moins 20 mm. L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre de différents modes de réalisation, description faite en référence aux dessins annexés et dans lesquels :The protection plate may be a folded aluminum plate. The thickness of this protection plate will be at least 20 mm. The invention will be better understood on reading the following description of various embodiments, a description given with reference to the appended drawings and in which:
- la figure 1 montre en coupe longitudinale partielle un véhicule équipé d'une cabine selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention,FIG. 1 shows in partial longitudinal section a vehicle equipped with a cabin according to a first embodiment of the invention,
- la figure 2 montre ce même véhicule en vue de dessus et en coupe suivant le plan dont la trace AA est visible à la figure 1, - la figure 3 montre en coupe transversale schématique un véhicule équipé d'une cabine selon un deuxième mode de réalisation de 1 ' invention, coupe réalisée suivant le plan dont la trace BB est visible à la figure 4, etFIG. 2 shows the same vehicle in plan view and in section along the plane whose track AA is visible in FIG. 1; FIG. 3 shows in a schematic cross section a vehicle equipped with a car according to a second embodiment of FIG. embodiment of the invention, section taken along the plane whose trace BB is visible in FIG. 4, and
- la figure 4 montre ce même véhicule en vue latérale. On a représenté sur la figure 1 un véhicule 1 blindé léger qui comprend une cabine 2 fixée sur un châssis 3 portant des roues 4. L'intérieur de la cabine est accessible par une porte 5 et il renferme des sièges 6 qui sont suspendus au plafond de la cabine 2 par une structure porteuse 7. Une telle disposition est classique et permet d'isoler les sièges 6 du plancher 8 de la cabine, ce qui protège l'équipage contre les déformations du plancher 8 provoquées par l'explosion d'une mine.- Figure 4 shows the same vehicle in side view. FIG. 1 shows a light armored vehicle 1 comprising a cabin 2 fixed to a chassis 3 carrying wheels 4. The interior of the cabin is accessible through a door 5 and it contains seats 6 which are suspended from the ceiling of the cabin 2 by a supporting structure 7. Such an arrangement is conventional and allows to isolate the seats 6 of the floor 8 of the cabin, which protects the crew against the deformations of the floor 8 caused by the explosion of a mine.
Le plancher 8 est solidaire des parois latérales 2a, 2b de la cabine 2.The floor 8 is integral with the side walls 2a, 2b of the cabin 2.
Un dispositif de protection de plancher est par ailleurs prévu. Il comprend une plaque de blindage 10 (par exemple en acier) qui est disposée à distance du plancher 8 de la cabine et lié à cette dernière par des moyens de fixation 11.A floor protection device is also provided. It comprises a shielding plate 10 (for example of steel) which is arranged at a distance from the floor 8 of the cabin and connected thereto by fastening means 11.
Un organe mécanique 12, par exemple une boîte de vitesse, est disposée entre le châssis 3 et le plancher 8.A mechanical member 12, for example a gearbox, is disposed between the frame 3 and the floor 8.
Conformément à ce mode de réalisation de l'invention, le plancher 8 se trouve au-dessus de l'organe mécanique 12 et il comporte au moins une zone courbe coiffant au moins partiellement l'organe mécanique 12.According to this embodiment of the invention, the floor 8 is above the mechanical member 12 and has at least one curved area at least partially covering the mechanical member 12.
Concrètement, il y a ici deux zones courbes 13a, 13b ayant des courbures inverses l'une de l'autre et tangentes l'une à l'autre. Ces zones sont sous la forme de portions cylindriques .Specifically, there are here two curved areas 13a, 13b having curvatures opposite to one another and tangent to each other. These areas are in the form of cylindrical portions.
Comme cela est plus particulièrement visible sur la figure 2, tout le plancher 8 (et en particulier les zones courbes 13a, 13b) s'étend sur sensiblement toute la largeur de la cabine 2, d'une paroi latérale 2a jusqu'à l'autre paroi latérale 2b.As is more particularly visible in Figure 2, the entire floor 8 (and in particular the curved areas 13a, 13b) extends over substantially the entire width of the cabin 2, a side wall 2a to the other side wall 2b.
Le plancher 8 comporte ainsi deux parties sensiblement planes 8a et 8b, parallèles l'une à l'autre, et séparées par les zones courbes 13a, 13b. Le plancher 8 est ainsi constitué par une plaque de protection épaisse qui est une plaque en aluminium pliée. Cette plaque a une épaisseur d'au moins 20 mm. De telles plaques métalliques épaisses sont pliées industriellement à l'aide d'un outillage associant un outillage de maintien de la plaque, un outillage de forme permettant de donner la courbure souhaitée et sur lequel on applique la plaque à l'aide d'une presse qui est dimensionnée en fonction des caractéristiques du matériau de la plaque. Cette mise en forme de plaques métalliques épaisses est connue par exemple dans le domaine de la fabrication de cuves. Elle n'a à ce jour jamais été mise en œuvre pour réaliser un plancher ou des parois de véhicules blindés. De telles formes courbes réalisées au niveau du plancherThe floor 8 thus comprises two substantially flat portions 8a and 8b, parallel to one another, and separated by the curved areas 13a, 13b. The floor 8 is thus constituted by a thick protective plate which is a folded aluminum plate. This plate has a thickness of at least 20 mm. Such thick metal plates are folded industrially using a tool combining a tool for holding the plate, a form tool to give the desired curvature and on which the plate is applied using a press which is dimensioned according to the characteristics of the material of the plate. This shaping of thick metal plates is known for example in the field of the manufacture of tanks. It has so far never been implemented to make a floor or walls of armored vehicles. Such curved shapes made at floor level
8 permettent d'éviter la mise en œuvre de plusieurs plaques soudées entre elles. On évite donc les zones fragiles qui cèdent sous l'effet du souffle d'une mine, l'épaisseur de la plaque assurant une protection de l'équipage occupant la cabine.8 allow to avoid the implementation of several plates welded together. Fragile zones that give way under the effect of the blast of a mine are thus avoided, the thickness of the plate providing protection for the crew occupying the cabin.
On renforce ainsi notablement la résistance de la cabine 2 du véhicule avec une masse de plancher 8 réduite et avec un procédé d'assemblage simplifié.This significantly enhances the strength of the cabin 2 of the vehicle with a reduced floor mass 8 and with a simplified assembly process.
Bien entendu les figures 1 et 2 ne sont que des représentations schématiques d'un mode particulier de réalisation. La plaque du plancher 8 pourra comporter plusieurs zones courbes 13 de formes différentes. On pourra prévoir ainsi deux zones courbes 13 délimitant trois surfaces planes, par exemple pour coiffer avec chaque zone courbe un des essieux du véhicule.Of course, Figures 1 and 2 are only schematic representations of a particular embodiment. The floor plate 8 may comprise several curved zones 13 of different shapes. Two curved zones 13 delimiting three planar surfaces may thus be provided, for example for combing with each curved zone one of the axles of the vehicle.
Les figures 3 et 4 montrent un autre mode de réalisation d'une cabine 2 selon inventionFigures 3 and 4 show another embodiment of a cabin 2 according to the invention
Suivant ce mode, la cabine 2 comporte deux parois latérales inférieures 14a et 14b qui sont disposées en dessous des parois latérales 2a, 2b.In this mode, the cabin 2 has two lower side walls 14a and 14b which are arranged below the side walls 2a, 2b.
Ces parois latérales inférieures sont solidaires, d'une part du plancher 8, et d'autre part d'une plaque de blindageThese lower side walls are integral, on the one hand floor 8, and on the other hand a shielding plate
10. Les parois latérales 14a, 14b sont réalisées sous la forme de goulottes concaves dont la courbure coiffe au moins en partie les moyens de mobilité qui sont ici des roues 4.10. The lateral walls 14a, 14b are in the form of concave troughs whose curvature covers at least part of the mobility means which are here wheels 4.
Comme cela est plus particulièrement visible sur la figure 4, les goulottes latérales concaves 14a, 14b s'étendent sur sensiblement toute la longueur de la cabine 2.As is more particularly visible in FIG. 4, the concave lateral chutes 14a, 14b extend over substantially the entire length of the booth 2.
Chaque goulotte 14 coiffe ainsi toutes les roues 4 disposées d'un même côté de la cabine 2.Each chute 14 thus covers all the wheels 4 arranged on the same side of the cabin 2.
Les goulottes 14a, 14b sont réalisées sous la forme de plaques d'aluminium épaisses et pliées à la forme souhaitée (épaisseur de l'ordre de 20 mm) . Du fait de la courbure des goulottes 14a, 14b, il n'y a pas de rupture de soudures à craindre lors de l'explosion d'une mine ou d'un engin explosif improvisé.The troughs 14a, 14b are made in the form of thick aluminum plates and folded to the desired shape (thickness of the order of 20 mm). Due to the curvature of the troughs 14a, 14b, there is no breakage of welds to be feared during the explosion of a mine or an improvised explosive device.
Par ailleurs la courbure des goulottes 14a, 14b assure aussi une déviation du souffle de l'explosion ce qui accroît la protection apportée par ces éléments de paroi.Furthermore the curvature of the troughs 14a, 14b also provides a deflection of the blast of the explosion which increases the protection provided by these wall elements.
Il est bien entendu possible d'utiliser des goulottes 14a, 14b pour coiffer des moyens de mobilité de nature différente, par exemple des chenilles. En fonction de la longueur totale du véhicule il sera possible de réaliser chaque paroi latérale 14a ou 14b, non pas sous la forme d'une seule goulotte, mais par l'assemblage de plusieurs goulottes disposées longitudinalement les unes derrière les autres. Chaque goulotte sera alors avantageusement fixée sur une armature solidaire de la cabine.It is of course possible to use chutes 14a, 14b to cover mobility means of different types, for example caterpillars. Depending on the total length of the vehicle it will be possible to make each side wall 14a or 14b, not in the form of a single chute, but by assembling several chutes arranged longitudinally one behind the other. Each chute will then be advantageously fixed on an armature integral with the cabin.
Il est enfin possible de combiner le mode de réalisation selon la figure 1 avec le mode de réalisation selon la figure 3. On pourra ainsi associer une forme particulière de plancher épais coiffant des organes mécaniques (par exemple les essieux) et des goulottes latérales épaisses déviant les effets du souffle des engins explosifs.Finally, it is possible to combine the embodiment according to FIG. 1 with the embodiment according to FIG. 3. It will thus be possible to associate a particular form of thick floor covering mechanical members (for example the axles) and thick lateral ducts deviating the effects of the blast of explosive devices.
On peut ainsi réaliser un véhicule léger, à garde au sol relativement réduite, mais ayant une cabine présentant un excellent niveau de protection vis à vis des mines et des engins explosifs improvisés. It is thus possible to make a light vehicle with a relatively small ground clearance, but having a cabin with an excellent level of protection against mines and improvised explosive devices.
