Particularly preferably, these struts are arranged so that they are at least partially oriented along the connecting line between the effectors and the central column 3. In a preferred embodiment, the stiffening structures are formed from actively controlled hydraulic cylinders, which are controlled in such a way that they counteract damping of oscillation of the main deck 4.
- the platform according to the invention to stiffen the mechanical transition between the central column 3 and the main deck 4 and to eliminate an existing and in order to maintain the smooth running of the lifting mechanism formed by racks and gears' tolerated mechanical play.
- a plurality of connecting bolts are inserted or punched in locking holes, thus eliminating the mechanical play of the drive unit.
- the electric motors 15 acting on the racks 13 via the drive pinions 14 reach the desired position. tion is not de-energized or switched off, but their moment is suitably maintained. In each case, two drive pinion 14 act on a rack 13. In the interaction of the weight of the main deck 4 with the opposing acting stroke effect of the drive, the mechanical transition is stiffened and the game between the main deck 4 and central column 3 eliminated.
- the electric motors 15 according to FIG. 4b are driven in opposite directions in such a way that they clamp the respective assigned drive pinion 14, as a result of which the drive clearance is likewise effectively eliminated.
- a plurality of hydraulic clamps each with a first rotatably mounted end above and / or below the main deck 4 in such a way that they can each be pressed against the central pillar 3 with a second free end, that when pressing the mechanical clearance between the main deck 4 and central column 3 is effectively eliminated.
- the maritime observation and defense platform 1 is subject to changing weather-related influences of, for example, sunshine, wind, rain or spray, etc. Due to the thermal expansion behavior of the materials used for the platform 1, these weather-related influences lead to changes in lengths, distances and angles on the main deck 4, which are of an order of magnitude which can no longer be neglected for use as an observation and defense platform. Therefore, according to the invention devices are provided which minimize these geometry changes.
- a coating of basically known materials which has a reflective effect with respect to solar radiation and / or thermal insulation, ie poorer thermal conduction properties than the material used for the platform 1 - metals, usually Steel - has.
- This layer may be applied by known methods such as spraying or brushing or may also be formed by prefabricated devices such as sheets or films.
- the support structure lying in the interior of the main deck 4 at least in part, actively and regulated to heat and / or cool, in order to protect the by external weathering.
- the entire structure of at least the main deck 4 can be cooled to a temperature level which is below the typical operating temperatures in the vicinity of the platform 1.
- the analysis of the detector signals can be used to directly deduce the vibration behavior of the entire platform level and the sensors and armatures mounted thereon.
- the light sensor is a sensor which can additionally resolve the point of impact of the light signal.
- These sensors are known in principle, for example under the name Quadrantendiode.
- the time-varying light signal at the individual diodes is recorded and transferred to a computing unit. This makes it possible in this embodiment in addition to the dynamic twisting behavior around the beam axis and the vibration behavior to detect each perpendicular to the beam axis.
- the arithmetic unit creates a dynamic oscillation image of the main deck 4 and transfers this information for further processing to the guns 16 associated gun computers.
- 4 channels or tubes are provided within the main deck, in which the linearly polarized light signal is protected from the effects of weather.
- the use of polarization-maintaining optical waveguides is provided.
- Fig. 8 shows schematically the structure of the measuring device 1000 of the platform monitoring system.
- a radiation source 100 for example a semiconductor or solid-state laser, emits a radiation beam 200 with a cross-section that deviates from the circular shape, that is to say non-circular.
- Such sources of light radiation are known in principle as line lasers, their bundle cross sections being able to resemble those of a rectangle or alternatively of an ellipse.
- the beam 200 is split into two partial beams 201 and 202, wherein the partial beam 202 hits a position-sensitive, flat detector 102.
- the partial beam 201 strikes a partially transparent mirror 103, which is fixed to the object B.
- the reflectivity of the mirror 103 is preferably between 40% and 60%, particularly preferably 50%.
- a first part of the beam 201 impinging on the mirror 103 impinges on the position-sensitive, flat detector 104 on the object B.
- a second part of the beam 201 is reflected by the partially transmissive mirror 103 and forms the beam 203. This coincides with suitable positioning of the mirror 103 again to the beam splitter 101, which deflects the radiation beam 204 onto a position-sensitive, areal detector 105.
- Detectors 102, 104 and 105 may be formed, for example, by position sensitive photodiodes or CCD elements.
- the elements radiation source 100, beam splitters 101 and detectors 102 and 105 are preferably combined in a first unit 1001 fixedly connected to object A.
- the partially transparent mirror 103 and the detector 104 are preferably combined in a second unit 1002 fixedly connected to object B.
- the units 1001 and 1002 are sufficiently mechanically stable, have suitable passages or windows for the beam and can be thermally stabilized.
- the reflection of the beam 203 according to the invention is not parallel to the beam 201.
- the angle ⁇ between these two bundles is preferably dimensioned by suitable adjustment of the partially reflecting mirror 103 so that this above the expected relative respective angular dynamics of the objects A and B by at least the Solid angle ß and ⁇ is. This ensures that non-parallelism and thus the measurability of the dynamics in the x-direction are maintained even with maximum angular dynamics to be detected.
- the partial beam 202 is used for automatic self-calibration of the system: If the radiation source 100 changes its position, for example due to mechanical or thermal influences, this causes a change in the signal detected at the detector 102. A line laser 100 displaced with respect to a desired position in the direction y results in a displacement of the signal at the position-sensitive detector 102 along the x-direction. A rotation about an angle ⁇ leads to a signal response rotated by the angle ⁇ at the detector 102. Such changes are automatically detected as a system change and corrected numerically to the zero point of the system in the sense of self-calibration.
- the measuring device 1000 has the task of measuring the relative translatory (xyz) and rotational ( ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ ) movements between two objects A and B. This will be explained below. Relative movements of the object B with respect to the object A in the z and y directions are detected directly by the detector 104. Movements along the x-direction, due to the non-parallelism of the beams 201 and 203, result in an offset of the signal at the detector 105 also along the opposite x-direction. A relative movement about the angle ⁇ is detected directly on the position-sensitive, flat detector 104 due to the non-circular cross-section of the beam 201. A rotation about the angle ⁇ leads to an offset of the signal at the detector 105 in the z direction.
- a relative movement of the object B with respect to the object A by the angle ⁇ is detected at the detector 105 by an offset in the x-direction.
- Relative translational movements in the range of less than 1/100 mm as well as rotational movements of less than 1/10 milrad can be detected with the aid of the illustrated measuring device 1000 according to the invention.
- the measuring device 1000 on the main deck 4 of a maritime observation and defense platform 1 (whereby the main deck 4 can be displaced along the central column 3 by means of a drive device) to control the dynamic translational and rotational movements between objects A and B - for example, sensors 17, 18 and effectors 16 - on the main deck 4 to detect each other.
- the data is transmitted by a suitable processing unit to the position sensors and actuators of the sensors 17, 18 and effectors 16 on the platform 1 and further processed there.
- the dynamic deviations are provided for the calculation of correction values of the orientation of the effectors, i. the gun barrels of the installed cannons.
