DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to a device for fastening ballistic protective elements and additional add-on parts to an object which is to be protected in particular from the effects of weapons or mines.
A fastening device of this type is known for example from the documents DE 20 2005 000 198 U1 and DE 10 2010 018 486 Al. A disadvantage in the use of these known devices has proved to be that when both a ballistic protective element and an add-on part are fastened to the same welded stub, these parts cannot be mounted independently of one another in time. Furthermore, when the known welded stub is used, it is not generally possible to screw the ballistic protective element and the additional add-on part to the welded stub - and thus to the object to be protected - with different torques. Since, however, the protective elements have to be fastened with less torque than is prescribed for the add-on parts by corresponding standards, a standard screw-connection of the add-on parts to the welded stub is frequently not possible.
It would be desirable to provide a device of the type mentioned at the beginning, in which a ballistic protective element and an add-on part are able to be fastened to the same welded stub with different torques.
According to the present invention, there is provided a device for fastening ballistic protective elements and additional addon parts to an object which is to be protected from the effects of weapons or mines, said device comprising a welded stub which is fastenable to the object to be protected and a base region <filename>
2015243584 30 Aug 2018 of which, facing the object, is connectable to the object via a welded connection, said welded stub also having a threaded bore into which a bolt is able to be screwed from the outside, wherein the welded stub is provided with an external thread, 5 wherein the device comprises a clamping nut having a throughbore with an internal thread, said clamping nut being able to be screwed onto the welded stub, wherein the clamping nut has, on its side facing away from the object to be protected, a flange, the size of which is selected such that, in the mounted 10 state of the device, a respective ballistic protective element is fastenable in a force-fitting manner between the flange of the clamping nut and the object to be protected and a corresponding add-on part is fastenable in a force-fitting manner between the bolt head of the bolt and the flange of the 15 clamping nut, wherein the add-on part rests on the clamping nut and not on the ballistic protective element.
The invention is based essentially on the idea of using a welded stub having an internal and an external thread. In this case, the respective ballistic protective element is screwed on by means of a clamping nut that is able to be screwed onto the external thread of the welded stub with a first predefinable torque. To this end, the clamping nut has a through-bore with an internal thread. Through this through-bore, the respective add-on part can be connected to the internal thread of the welded stub. Since the add-on part rests on the clamping nut and not on the ballistic protective element, it can be fastened to the welded stub with a second, standard torque, without damaging the ballistic protective element.
A further advantage of the device according to the invention is that the ballistic protective elements and the add-on parts can be fastened to the object to be protected independently of one another in time.

In order to fasten the welded stub to the object to be protected, the welded stub can have a circumferential chamfer on its base side, said chamfer being able to be welded to the object via a fillet weld. However, it is also possible to use a 5 welded stub having a flange that protrudes on the base side, which is then able to be welded to the object either peripherally via a fillet weld or via a plug weld.
Furthermore, it has proven advantageous for a centering pin to 10 be present on the underside of the welded stub, said centering pin fitting into a bore present on the <filename>
WO 2015/155196
PCT/EP2015/057545 object to be protected and thus predefining the exact position of the stub.
In order to transfer the tightening torque when the ballistic protective element is fastened, bores can be provided in the flange of the clamping nut (resulting for example in a two-hole nut or in a capstan nut) , it being possible for an appropriate special tool to engage in said bores in order to turn the clamping nut.
However, provision can also be made, in order to transfer the tightening torques, for the flange of the clamping nut to be provided circumferentially with two opposite wrench flats.
Further details and advantages of the invention can be gathered from the following exemplary embodiments that are explained with reference to figures, in which:
Figure 1 shows the longitudinal section through a device according to the invention, which is arranged on the object to be protected and contains a welded stub and a clamping nut, having a ballistic protective element fastened to the object to be protected;
Figure 2 shows the view corresponding to figure
1, wherein an add-on part has been fastened to the device in addition to the ballistic protective element;
Figures 3-5 show longitudinal sections through different embodiments of welded stubs of the device according to the invention;
WO 2015/155196
PCT/EP2015/057545
Figures 6 and 7 show two plan views of the flanges of two different embodiments of clamping nuts .
In figure 1, a device according to the invention is denoted 1, said device comprising a welded stub 2 having a central threaded bore 3 and an external thread 4 (cf. also figure 4). The welded stub 2 is fastened to an object 5 to be protected (for example the hull of an armored vehicle) and to this end has a flange 6 on the side facing the object 5, said flange 6 being welded for example peripherally to the object 5.
Screwed onto the external thread 4 of the welded stub 2
is a clamping nut 7 having a through-bore with an
internal thread 8, which has a flange 9 on its side
facing away from the object 5 to be protected, the size
of said flange 9 being chosen such that a ballistic protective element (additional armoring) 10 is fastened between the flange 9 of the clamping nut 7 and the flange 6 of the welded stub 2 in the mounted state of the device 1 (figure 1 and figure 2).
Figure 2 shows the view corresponding to figure 1, wherein an add-on part 11 is fastened to the device 1 in addition to the ballistic protective element 10. To this end, the add-on part 11 is applied to the top side 12 of the clamping nut 7 and fastened to the welded stub 2 in a force-fitting manner by way of a bolt 13 that is screwable into the threaded bore 3 in the welded stub 2.
Figures 3-5 show longitudinal sections through different embodiments of welded stubs of the device according to the invention. Here, in figure 3, the welded stub 2' has a circumferential chamfer 14 on its base side, said chamfer 14 being weldable to the object 5 to be protected via a fillet weld.
2015243584 30 Aug 2018
In figures 4 and 5, the welded stub 2 and 2, respectively, has a flange 6, 6' on its base side, the peripheral circumference of said flange 6, 6' being weldable to the object 5 to be protected via a fillet weld (figure 4 and figures 1 and 2) or two bores 15 extending axially through said flange 6, 6' (figure 5) such that the welded stub 2 is able to be fastened to the object 5 to be protected via a plug weld.
As is indicated in figures 3-5 by dashed lines, the welded stubs 2-2 can additionally each have a centering pin 16 on their sides facing the object 5 to be protected, said centering pin 16 fitting in a bore present in the object 5 to be protected and thus predefining the exact position of the welded stub 2-2.
In order to transmit the tightening torque while the ballistic protective element 10 is being fastened, the clamping nut 7 can be configured for example as a two-hole nut (figure 6), i.e. two opposite bores 17 are located in the flange 9 of the clamping nut 7, it being possible for an appropriate special tool to engage in said bores 17 in order to turn the clamping nut 7 .
However, provision can also be made for the flange 9' of the clamping nut 7' to be provided circumferentially with two opposite wrench flats 18 (figure 7) in order to transmit the tightening torques.
