Abstract

The invention relates to a device for securing the ball joint of a mortar barrel, which allows securing at an orientation angle greater than 60° to one side or the other, which is not possible in existing mortar-carrying systems. In addition, the device allows the barrel to be removed quickly from the base plate without using a tool. The mortar tube is secured to the base plate using a base that has a machined hemisphere for accommodating the ball joint of the barrel, a flange, a clamp that immobilises the flange, a runner or slider and a bolt that immobilises the runner with the clamp.

Description

DESCRIPCION  DESCRIPTION
DISPOSITIVO DE FIJACION DE LA ROTULA DE UN TUBO MORTERO CAMPO DE APLICACIÓN INDUSTRIAL DEVICE FOR FIXING THE ROTULA OF A MORTAR TUBE INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION FIELD
El campo de aplicación es el del armamento. Se trata de un invento para vehículos porta- morteros con una posición de transporte y otra de disparo. Para el disparo, el mortero se sitúa en e! poste de apuntamiento y éste se monta sobre una placa base mediante una rótula, siendo esta placa base la que se apoya en el suelo para realizar el disparo.  The field of application is that of armament. It is an invention for mortar carriers with a transport position and a firing position. For the shot, the mortar is placed in e! pointing post and this is mounted on a base plate by means of a ball joint, this base plate being the one that rests on the ground to make the shot.
ESTADO DE LA TECNICA ANTERIOR STATE OF THE PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE
Un tubo de mortero dispone en su extremo inferior de una rótula esférica que le permite apoyarse en una placa que lo fija al terreno o a la plataforma porta mortero. La forma en que se inmoviliza el tubo con la placa base es de formas variadas.  A mortar tube has at its lower end a ball-and-socket joint that allows it to rest on a plate that fixes it to the ground or to the mortar-bearing platform. The way in which the tube is immobilized with the base plate is of various shapes.
En algunos casos implica la utilización de herramientas para remover una pestaña atornillada a la base. In some cases it involves the use of tools to remove a bolted tab to the base.
En otros casos la rótula presenta una serie de caras mecanizadas, que al mover el tubo a una posición determinada le permite ser extraído de la placa base.  In other cases, the ball joint has a series of mechanized faces, which by moving the tube to a certain position allows it to be extracted from the base plate.
Estas soluciones han sido válidas en sistemas en los que el movimiento del mortero en orientación es un pequeño ángulo. These solutions have been valid in systems in which the movement of the mortar in orientation is a small angle.
La separación del tubo mortero del sistema que lo transporta suele ser una operación obligatoria en algunos ejércitos, para que el arma permanezca guardada bajo custodia, en vez de permanecer montada en su sistema porta-mortero.  The separation of the mortar tube from the system that transports it is usually a mandatory operation in some armies, so that the weapon remains stored in custody, instead of remaining mounted in its mortar-holder system.
Hay bastantes patentes que se refieren a la forma de montar el tubo lanza morteros mediante rótula. Podemos tomar como ejemplo las siguientes: EP 0158624, US 4791852, FR 2683727 y FR2588650. Pero en todas ellas la rótula va encastrada en la placa base de manera que para sacar el tubo se necesita desmontar toda ia placa base.  There are quite a few patents that refer to the way of mounting the tube launches mortars by ball joint. We can take as an example the following: EP 0158624, US 4791852, FR 2683727 and FR2588650. But in all of them the ball joint is embedded in the base plate so that to remove the tube it is necessary to disassemble the entire base plate.
EXPLICACION DE LA INVENCION EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
Este dispositivo de fijación de la rótula del tubo de mortero permite una fijación en un ángulo de orientación superior a 80° a un lado y a otro, cosa que no era posible en ios sistemas porta-mortero existentes. This device for fixing the ball joint of the mortar tube allows fixation at an angle of orientation greater than 80 ° on one side and on the other, which was not possible in existing mortar systems.
Pero además este dispositivo permite una extracción rápida del tubo de la placa base sin empleo de herramienta alguna. La fijación del tubo de mortero a la placa base se consigue mediante este dispositivo, el cual consiste en un soporte formado por: - una base que tiene mecanizada una semiesfera para alojar la rótula del tuboBut also this device allows a quick extraction of the tube from the base plate without the use of any tool. The fixing of the mortar tube to the base plate is achieved by means of this device, which consists of a support formed by: - a base that has a semi-sphere machined to house the tube's ball joint
- una pestaña y una brida que inmoviliza la pestaña - a flange and a flange that immobilizes the tab
- una corredera o deslizadera  - a slide or slide
- un pasador que inmoviliza la corredera con la brida.  - a pin that immobilizes the slide with the flange.
BREVE DESCRIPCION DE LOS DIBUJOS BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
La figura 1 es una representación gráfica de la fijación del tubo de mortero a la placa base mediante un soporte. La figura 2 es un despiece del soporte mencionado. Y la figura 3 representa ei soporte ya montado.  Figure 1 is a graphic representation of the fixing of the mortar tube to the base plate by means of a support. Figure 2 is an exploded view of the support mentioned. And Figure 3 represents the support already assembled.
EXPOSICION DETALLADA DE UN MODO DE REALIZACION DETAILED EXHIBITION OF A REALIZATION MODE
Este dispositivo permite una extracción rápida del tubo sin empleo de herramienta alguna.  This device allows a quick extraction of the tube without the use of any tool.
Como se puede apreciar en la figura 1 , la fijación del tubo de mortero (1 ) a la placa base se consigue mediante un soporte (2). As can be seen in figure 1, the fixing of the mortar tube (1) to the base plate is achieved by means of a support (2).
En la figura 2 y en la figura 3 se detalla el soporte, el cual está formado por una base (3) que tiene mecanizada una semiesfera para alojar la rótula del tubo, una pestaña (4), una brida (5) que inmoviliza la pestaña, una corredera o deslizadera (8) y un pasador (7) que inmoviliza la corredera con la brida.  In Figure 2 and Figure 3 the support is detailed, which is formed by a base (3) that has machined a hemisphere to house the ball joint, a flange (4), a flange (5) that immobilizes the flange, a slide or slide (8) and a pin (7) that immobilizes the slide with the flange.
Cuando la deslizadera (6) está sujeta por ei pasador (7) impide la extracción de la rótula del mortero. Sí se extrae el pasador de su alojamiento al tirar del mortero para su extracción, la deslizadera (6) se mueve dejando salir la bola de la rótula.  When the slide (6) is held by the pin (7) prevents removal of the ball from the mortar. If the pin is removed from its housing when pulling the mortar for removal, the slide (6) moves leaving the ball of the ball.
Para colocar el mortero de nuevo en su alojamiento basta apoyarlo en la base (3). El peso del mortero deslizará la corredera permitiendo al mortero quedar acoplado en su alojamiento. Posteriormente, deslizaremos la corredera (8) hasta su posición final e insertaremos el pasador (7). De esta forma el mortero quedará inmovilizado. To put the mortar back in its housing, just support it on the base (3). The weight of the mortar will slide the slide allowing the mortar to be coupled in its housing. Subsequently, slide the slide (8) to its final position and insert the pin (7). In this way the mortar will be immobilized.
Además, este dispositivo de fijación de la rótula del tubo de mortero permite una fijación en un ángulo de orientación superior a 80° a un lado y a otro, cosa que no era posible en los sistemas porta-mortero existentes. In addition, this device for fixing the ball joint of the mortar tube allows fixation at an angle of orientation greater than 80 ° on one side and on the other, which was not possible in the existing mortar systems.
