Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schützenpanzer mit einem von einem Kettenfahrwerk getragenen Fahrzeuggehäuse und einer auf dem Dach des Fahrzeuggehäuses angeordneten Waffenstation, wie z.B. bekannt aus DE 1 703 469 .The invention relates to an armored infantry vehicle with a vehicle chassis supported by a tracked chassis and a weapon station located on the roof of the vehicle housing, such as known from, for example DE 1 703 469 ,

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen derartigen Schützenpanzer so auszugestalten, daß mit dem gleichen Fahrzeuggehäuse unterschiedliche Fahrzeugvarianten mit missionsspezifischer Ausstattung aufgebaut werden können.The invention has for its object to design such an armored infantry so that different vehicle variants can be constructed with Missionsspezifischer equipment with the same vehicle body.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt nach Anspruch erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß der Innenraum des Fahrzeuggehäuses in drei Bereiche aufgeteilt ist, nämlich einen vorderen Bereich, in dem die Antriebsvorrichtung und der Fahrerplatz angeordnet sind, einen hinteren Bereich, in dem die Plätze für die Mannschaft angeordnet sind, und einen mittleren Bereich, der je nach Ausstattung des Fahrzeugs für variable Zwecke, insbesondere zur Unterbringung einer Turmbühne und/oder mindestens eines Platzes für Bediener der Waffenstation und/oder Stauraum für Munition und Munitionszuführungsvorrichtungen, nutzbar ist, das Gesamtfahrzeug aus einzelnen Modulen aufgebaut, nämlich einem das Fahrzeuggehäuse enthaltenden Grundmodul, einem Fahrwerksmodul und weiteren Modulen, die den Aufbau unterschiedlicher Ausstattungsvarianten mit unterschiedlichem Gewicht ermöglichen. Dabei kann auf das gleiche Fahrzeuggehäuse wahlweise ein bemannter Turm, insbesondere ein Turm mit im mittleren Bereich des Innenraums des Fahrzeuggehäuses angeordneter Turmbühne, oder ein unbemannter Turm aufsetzbar sein.The solution of this object is achieved according to claim according to the invention in that the interior of the vehicle housing is divided into three areas, namely a front area in which the drive device and the driver's seat are arranged, a rear area in which the seats are arranged for the team, and a central area, which depending on the equipment of the vehicle for variable purposes, in particular for accommodating a tower platform and / or at least one place for operators of the weapon station and / or storage space for ammunition and ammunition supply devices, can be used, the entire vehicle constructed of individual modules, namely a basic module containing the vehicle housing, a chassis module and other modules that allow the construction of different equipment variants with different weights. In this case, a manned tower, in particular a tower with arranged in the central region of the interior of the vehicle housing tower platform, or an unmanned tower can optionally be placed on the same vehicle body.

Ein Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, den Innenraum des Fahrzeuggehäuses grundsätzlich in drei Bereiche aufzuteilen, wobei zwei dieser Bereiche bei allen Fahrzeugvarianten die gleiche Funktion haben, indem im vorderen Bereich die Antriebsvorrichtung und der Fahrerplatz angeordnet sind, während im hinteren Bereich die Plätze für die Mannschaft vorgesehen sind. Der dritte, mittlere Bereich steht dann für sehr unterschiedliche Zwecke zur Verfügung.A basic idea of the invention is basically to divide the interior of the vehicle housing into three areas, wherein two of these areas have the same function in all vehicle variants, in that the drive device and the driver's seat are arranged in the front area, while in the rear area the seats for the crew are provided. The third, middle area is then available for very different purposes.

Ein weiterer Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, das Gesamtfahrzeug aus einzelnen Modulen aufzubauen. Der durch diese Ausstattungsvarianten gekennzeichnete Gewichtsanteil des Gefechtsgewichts kann bis zu 50 % des Gesamtgewichts betragen. Dies erlaubt Fahrzeugvarianten vom leichten Infanteriefahrzeug bis hin zum schwer gepanzerten Schützenpanzer. Dieser Aufbau hat den weiteren Vorteil, daß durch Demontage einzelner Module des Gesamtaufbaus das Gefechtsgewicht des Fahrzeugs soweit abgesenkt werden kann, daß eine Luftverladung möglich wird, und ein geeignetes Kettenfahrwerk, je nach Einsatzzwerk, integriert werden kann. Im folgenden werden anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen Ausführungsbeispiele für den erfindungsgemäßen Schützenpanzer näher erläutert.Another basic idea of the invention is to construct the entire vehicle from individual modules. The weight fraction of the combat weight characterized by these equipment variants can amount to up to 50% of the total weight. This allows vehicle variants from the light infantry vehicle to heavily armored infantry fighting vehicle. This structure has the further advantage that by disassembling individual modules of the overall structure, the combat weight of the vehicle can be lowered so far that an air loading is possible, and a suitable track undercarriage, depending on Einsatzzwerk, can be integrated. In the following, exemplary embodiments of the infantry fighting vehicle according to the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Die Fig. 1 bis 3 zeigen einen Schützenpanzer mit einem Fahrzeuggehäuse 1, das von einem Kettenfahrwerk 2 getragen ist, und einem auf dem Dach des Fahrzeuggehäuses angeordneten Turm 3 mit einer Waffe 4.The Fig. 1 to 3 show an armored infantry vehicle with a vehicle housing 1, which is supported by a tracked chassis 2, and arranged on the roof of the vehicle housing tower 3 with a weapon. 4

Der Innenraum des kompakt aufgebauten Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 ist in drei Bereiche aufgeteilt. In einem vorderen Bereich 1.1 1 ist eine Antriebsvorrichtung 5 angeordnet sowie ein Fahrerplatz 6. Die Antriebsvorrichtung 5 kann entweder als dieselelektrischer Antrieb oder als konventionelle Motor-/Getriebeeinheit aufgebaut sein. Im hinteren Bereich 1.2 des Innenraums des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 sind die Plätze 7 für die Mannschaft angeordnet. Der mittlere Bereich 1.3 des Innenraums steht je nach Ausstattung des Fahrzeugs für variable Zwecke zur Verfügung. Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 bis 3, das auch den Fig. 5 und 7 zugrunde liegt, ist auf das Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 ein bemannter Turm 3 aufgesetzt, dessen Turmbühne 3.1 mindestens einen Teil des mittleren Bereichs 1.3 des Innenraums in Anspruch nimmt. Im Turm sind zwei Bedienerplätze 8.1 und 8.2 angeordnet.The interior of the compact vehicle body 1 is divided into three areas. In a front region 1.1 1, a drive device 5 is arranged and a driver's seat 6. The drive device 5 can be constructed either as a diesel-electric drive or as a conventional motor / gear unit. In the rear area 1.2 of the interior of the vehicle housing 1, the seats 7 are arranged for the crew. The central region 1.3 of the interior is available for variable purposes depending on the equipment of the vehicle. In the embodiment according to Fig. 1 to 3 that too Fig. 5 and 7 is based, a manned tower 3 is placed on the vehicle housing 1, the tower platform 3.1 takes at least a portion of the central region 1.3 of the interior to complete. Two operator stations 8.1 and 8.2 are arranged in the tower.

Der Aufbau des Fahrzeugs mit dem kompakten Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 als Grundmodul bietet zudem die Möglichkeit, eine einfache Schnittstelle zwischen dem Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 und dem abkoppelbaren Fahrwerk 2 vorzusehen, so daß ggf. unterschiedlich ausgelegte Fahrwerke mit dem gleichen Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 kombiniert werden können. Hierdurch ist gewährleistet, daß aus dem Gesamtfahrzeugkonzept bei geänderten Forderungen auch besonders schwere Varianten abgeleitet werden können, bei denen der max. Bodendruck nicht überschritten wird.The structure of the vehicle with the compact vehicle body 1 as a basic module also offers the possibility to provide a simple interface between the vehicle body 1 and the detachable suspension 2, so that possibly different design chassis are combined with the same vehicle body 1 can. This ensures that particularly heavy variants can be derived from the overall vehicle concept with changed requirements, in which the max. Ground pressure is not exceeded.

Weiterhin können auf und/oder an dem gleichen Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 unterschiedliche Schutzmodule befestigt werden. Dies ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt. Auf der Oberfläche des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 kann in den Bereichen Front, Seite, Heck und Dach zunächst ein ggf. aus mehreren Teilen aufgebautes Grundschutzmodul 9.1 befestigbar sein. Weiterhin können auf dem Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 einschließlich Turm 3 passive oder reaktive Dachschutzmodule 9.2 befestigbar sein. An der Unterseite des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 kann ein Minenschutzmodul 9.3 befestigbar sein. Dieses Minenschutzmodul kann aber auch in das abgekoppelte Fahrwerk 2 integriert sein. Damit ist es vom Fahrzeuggehäuse entkoppelt. An der Vorderseite des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 können HL-Schutzmodule und/oder KE-Schutzmodule 9.4 befestigbar sein. Ebenso können an den Seiten des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 HL-Schutzmodule 9.5 und/oder KE-Schutzmodule 9.6 befestigbar sein.Furthermore, 1 different protection modules can be attached to and / or on the same vehicle body. This is in Fig. 4 shown. On the surface of the vehicle housing 1, in the areas of the front, side, rear and roof, a basic protection module 9.1, which may be constructed of several parts, can first be fastened. Furthermore, passive or reactive roof protection modules 9.2 can be fastened to the vehicle housing 1 including tower 3. At the bottom of the vehicle housing 1, a mine protection module 9.3 can be fastened. This mine protection module can also be integrated into the uncoupled chassis 2. So it is decoupled from the vehicle body. At the front of the vehicle housing 1 HL protection modules and / or KE protection modules 9.4 can be fastened. Likewise, on the sides of the vehicle housing 1 HL protection modules 9.5 and / or KE protection modules 9.6 be fastened.

Sämtliche Schutzmodule können grundsätzlich als einzelne, ungeteilte Module oder als geteilte Module aufgebaut sein und sie können in unterschiedlicher Technologie ausgeführt sein, und zwar passiv, reaktiv, aktiv/reaktiv.All protection modules can in principle be constructed as single, undivided modules or as divided modules and they can be implemented in different technologies, namely passive, reactive, active / reactive.

Das Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 ist weiterhin so ausgestaltet, daß unterschiedliche Bewaffnungskonzepte integriert werden können. So kann, wie schon erwähnt und beispielsweise auch in Fig. 5 und 7 dargestellt, ein bemannter Turm 3 aufgesetzt werden mit mindestens einem Bedienungsplatz 8.11, wobei beispielsweise gemäß Fig. 7 die Munition und die Munitionszuführungsvorrichtung 10.1 unterhalb der Dachplatte des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 im Bereich der Turmbühne 3.1 angeordnet sind.The vehicle housing 1 is further designed so that different weapons concepts can be integrated. Thus, as already mentioned and for example also in Fig. 5 and 7 represented, a manned tower 3 are placed with at least one control station 8.11, for example, according to Fig. 7 the ammunition and ammunition feeder 10.1 below the Roof plate of the vehicle housing 1 in the area of the tower platform 3.1 are arranged.

Aus Fig. 8 ist zu entnehmen, daß bei einem bemannten Turm 3" mit mindestens einem Bedienerplatz 8.13 Munition und Munitionszuführungsvorrichtung 10.2 auch oberhalb der Turmbühne 3.1 " bzw. der Dachplatte des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 im Turmheck angeordnet sein können.Out Fig. 8 It can be seen that in a manned tower 3 "with at least one operator place 8.13 ammunition and ammunition feeder 10.2 can also be located above the tower platform 3.1" or the roof panel of the vehicle body 1 in the turret.

Weiterhin kann, wie in den Fig. 6 und 9 dargestellt, eine als unbemannter Turm 3' ausgebildete Waffenstation auf das Fahrzeuggehäuse 1 aufgesetzt sein mit mindestens einem Bedienerplatz 8.12 im Innenraum des Fahrzeuggehäuses, und die Verstauung von Munition und Munitionszuführungsvorrichtung 10.3 kann dann oberhalb der Dachplatte des Fahrzeuggehäuses 1 direkt an der Waffe 4 erfolgen. Es sind also je nach Bewaffnungskonzept unterschiedliche Bedienungskonzepte möglich, indem der oder die Bediener entweder im Turm oder im Fahrzeuggehäuse untergebracht sind, wozu in beiden Fällen der mittlere Bereich 1.3 des Innenraums vorgesehen ist.Furthermore, as in the Fig. 6 and 9 illustrated, designed as an unmanned turret 3 'weapon station on the vehicle housing 1 be placed with at least one operator space 8.12 in the interior of the vehicle housing, and the stowage of ammunition and ammunition feeder 10.3 can then be done above the roof panel of the vehicle body 1 directly to the weapon 4. Thus, depending on the armament concept, different operating concepts are possible by accommodating the operator (s) either in the tower or in the vehicle housing, for which purpose the central area 1.3 of the interior is provided in both cases.

Durch die oben erläuterte modulare Ausführung der Basispanzerung können unterschiedliche Schutzgrade und Fahrzeuggewichte dargestellt werden. Durch Hinzufügen einzelner Schutzmodule kann das Schutzniveau des Fahrzeugs gesteigert werden. Das Fahrzeug verfügt dann über einen Rundumschutz gegenüber mittelschweren Bedrohungen. Due to the modular design of the base armor explained above, different degrees of protection and vehicle weights can be represented. By adding individual protection modules, the level of protection of the vehicle can be increased. The vehicle will then have all-round protection against moderate threats.
