Abstract

The invention relates to an armoured vehicle, especially a combat vehicle comprising a vehicle housing which is mounted on a running carriage and has a roof plate ( 1 ) on its upper side, in which an opening ( 1.1 ) is surrounded by a frame, the gun carriage of a weapon being mounted on a pivot bearing in said opening. Said frame consists of two parts which are fixed to each other and concentrically arranged inside each other, namely a non mechanically finished outer part ( 2 ), with wide tolerances, which is connected to the vehicle housing by means of welding, and a mechanically finished inner part ( 3 ), with narrow tolerances, which is positively engaged with the outer part. The pivot bearing of the gun carriage is arranged on said inner part. The production means can be sharply reduced by means of the inventive embodiment, as only the inner part ( 3 ) of the collar must be finished, as opposed to the entire vehicle housing.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein gepanzertes Fahrzeug, insbesondere ein Kampffahrzeug mit den Merkmalen aus dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. Ein derartiges Fahrzeug ist z.B. in DE 1269921 B beschrieben.The invention relates to an armored vehicle, in particular a combat vehicle having the features of the preamble of claim 1. Such a vehicle is e.g. described in DE 1269921 B.

Lafettenlagerungen werden üblicherweise in Zargen vorgenommen, die in die Fahrzeuggehäuse gepanzerter Fahrzeuge eingeschweißt werden und anschliessend zur Herstellung der für das Drehlager erforderlichen Toleranzen mit dem gesamten Fahrzeuggehäuse mechanisch bearbeitet werden. Dies hat sich dadurch als nachteilig erwiesen, daß bei modernen gepanzerten Fahrzeugen zunehmend Bleche mit kleinen Wandstärken für die Gehäusestrukturen verwendet werden und die ballistische Schutzwirkung mit Zusatzpanzerungen hergestellt wird. Zur Minimierung der Herstellungskosten wird versucht, auf die mechanische Bearbeitung fertig geschweißter Fahrzeuggehäuse zu verzichten und tolerierte Teile lagerichtig einzuschweißen. Andererseits erfordern die Drehlager von Lafetten sehr eng tolerierte Zargen, deren schweißtechnische Realisierung einen erheblichen Vorrichtungs- und Fertigungsaufwand erfordert.Carriage bearings are usually made in frames, which are welded into the vehicle housing armored vehicles and then mechanically processed to produce the necessary tolerances for the pivot bearing with the entire vehicle body. This has proven to be disadvantageous in that in modern armored vehicles increasingly sheets are used with small wall thicknesses for the housing structures and the ballistic protective effect is produced with additional armor. In order to minimize the manufacturing costs, an attempt is made to dispense with the mechanical processing of finished welded vehicle housings and to weld tolerated parts in the correct position. On the other hand, the pivot bearings of carriages require very narrow tolerances whose welding technology implementation requires considerable device and manufacturing effort.

In US 4,346,520 ist ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zur Montage einer Waffenanlage auf dem Deck eines Schiffes beschrieben. Auf dem Deck des Schiffes ist ein erster innerer Ring aufgeschweißt. Ein zweiter äußerer Ring ist auf den inneren Ring aufgeschoben. Letzterer besitzt eine horizontal ausgerichtete Auflagefläche zur Aufnahme der auf dem Deck zu montierenden Elemente. Der innere Ring weist keine hohe Genauigkeit in seiner Bearbeitung auf. Der äußere Ring wird so justiert, dass seine Auflagefläche horizontal ausgerichtet ist. Er ist über Schraubenbolzen am inneren Ring befestigt.In US 4,346,520 describes a method and a device for mounting a weapon system on the deck of a ship. On the deck of the ship, a first inner ring is welded. A second outer ring is pushed onto the inner ring. The latter has a horizontally oriented support surface for receiving the elements to be mounted on the deck. The inner ring does not have high accuracy in its machining. The outer ring is adjusted so that its support surface is aligned horizontally. It is attached to the inner ring with bolts.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gepanzertes Fahrzeug, insbesondere ein Kampffahrzeug gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 so auszubilden, daß einerseits fein tolerierte Einbaubedingungen für das Drehlager sichergestellt werden können und andererseits die Zarge zur Aufnahme der Lafette sehr kostengünstig und ohne die übliche mechanische Bearbeitung des Gesamtfahrzeugs hergestellt werden kann.The invention has the object of providing an armored vehicle, in particular a combat vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that on the one hand finely tolerated installation conditions for the pivot bearing can be ensured and on the other hand, the frame for holding the carriage very inexpensive and without the usual mechanical processing of the entire vehicle can be produced.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Ein Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht in der Trennung der Zargenkonstruktion in einen grob tolerierten und an der Gehäusestruktur angeschweißten, nicht mechanisch bearbeiteten Außenteil und einen eng tolerierten mechanisch bearbeiteten Innenteil. Dabei ist die formschlüssige Verbindung von Innenteil und Außenteil durch einen Vergußvorgang mit einer geeigneten Vergußmasse durchgeführt, wobei das Innenteil mittels einer einfachen Vorrichtung lagerichtig in Position gebracht werden kann.A basic idea of the invention consists in the separation of the frame construction in a roughly tolerated and welded to the housing structure, non-machined outer part and a tightly tolerated mechanically machined inner part. In this case, the positive connection of inner part and outer part is performed by a Vergußvorgang with a suitable potting compound, wherein the inner part can be brought in the correct position by means of a simple device in position.

Fig. 1 zeigt die Dachplatte 1 eines im übrigen nicht dargestellten Kampffahrzeugs, die mit einer Öffnung 1.1 versehen ist, die mit einer Zarge zur Aufnahme des Drehlagers einer Lafette umfaßt werden soll. Die Öffnung 1.1 ist im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel polygonförmig ausgebildet, es kann an dieser Stelle aber auch eine runde Öffnung angeordnet sein. Fig. 1 shows the roof panel 1 of a combat vehicle, not shown otherwise, which is provided with an opening 1.1, which is to be covered with a frame for receiving the pivot bearing a carriage. The opening 1.1 is polygonal in the illustrated embodiment, but it can be arranged at this point but also a round opening.

Wie im folgenden erläutert, wird die Zarge, welche die Öffnung 1.1 umfassen soll, aus zwei konzentrisch ineinander angeordneten und aneinander befestigten Teilen aufgebaut, nämlich einem grob tolerierten, nicht mechanisch nachbearteiteten und mit der Dachplatte 1 des Fahrzeuggehäuses durch Schweißung verbundenen Außenteil 2 und einem eng tolerierten mechanisch nachbearbeiteten und mit dem Außenteil 2 formschlüssig verbundenen Innenteil 3, an welchem das nicht dargestellte Drehlager der Lafette angeordnet ist.As explained below, the frame, which is to comprise the opening 1.1, constructed of two concentric nested and attached parts, namely a roughly tolerated, not mechanically nachbearteeteten and connected to the roof panel 1 of the vehicle housing by welding outer part 2 and a tight tolerated mechanically reworked and with the outer part 2 positively connected inner part 3, on which the pivot bearing, not shown, of the carriage is arranged.

In Fig. 2 ist zunächst das mit der Dachplatte 1 fest verbundene Außenteil 2 dargestellt. Es ist als geschlossener Kragen aufgebaut, der als Biegekonstruktion oder aus aneinander anschließenden und durch Schweißung fest miteinander verbundenen Platten ausgebildet ist. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel besteht der Kragen aus senkrecht zur Dachplatte 1 stehenden Kragenplatten 2.1. Die Kragenplatten können aber auch schräg zur Dachplatte angeordnet sein. Wie Fig. 2 zu entnehmen, sind die Kragenplatten 2.1 polygonal angeordnet. Grundsätzlich wäre es auch möglich, einen Kragen mit kreisrundem Umfang aufzubauen, aber wie weiter unten beschrieben, hat die polygonale Ausbildung des Kragens fertigungstechnische, konstruktive und schutztechnische Vorteile. An der Innenseite des aus den Kragenplatten 2.1 aufgebauten Kragens ist in einem vorgegebenen Abstand von der Dachplatte 1 ein Kragenring mit polygonalem, an den Innenumfang des Kragens angepaßtem Außenumfang eingesetzt, der aus einzelnen, miteinander verschweißten Bodenplatten 2.2 zusammengesetzt und so angeordnet ist, daß seine Oberseite ein Plateau bildet. Das Plateau kann auch aus einem Stück bestehen oder aus zwei Hälften zusammengesetzt sein.In Fig. 2 First, the outer panel 2 fixed to the roof panel 1 is shown. It is constructed as a closed collar, which is designed as a bending construction or from adjoining and by welding firmly interconnected plates. In the illustrated embodiment, the collar consists of perpendicular to the roof panel 1 standing collar plates 2.1. The collar plates can also be arranged obliquely to the roof panel. As Fig. 2 can be seen, the collar plates 2.1 are arranged polygonal. In principle, it would also be possible to construct a collar with a circular circumference, but as described below, the polygonal design of the collar has production engineering, design and protection advantages. On the inside of the collar constructed from the collar plates 2.1 a collar ring with polygonal, adapted to the inner circumference of the collar outer circumference is used at a predetermined distance from the assembled, welded together base plates 2.2 and arranged so that its top forming a plateau. The plateau can also consist of one piece or be composed of two halves.

Der Innenumfang des aus den Bodenplatten 2.2 zusammengesetzten Kragenrings ist kreisförmig ausgebildet und der Kragenring ist in den Kragen eingeschweißt.The inner circumference of the composite of the bottom plates 2.2 collar ring is circular and the collar ring is welded into the collar.

In das Außenteil 2 soll nun ein Innenteil eingesetzt und dort formschlüssig verankert werden. Um eine solche formschlüssige Verankerung zu ermöglichen, sind in das Außenteil 2 Verriegelungselemente 2.3 eingesetzt, die in Fig. 3 und 3A zu erkennen sind. Hierzu besitzt der aus den Kragenplatten 2.1 zusammengesetzte Kragen in den Eckbereichen der aneinander angrenzenden Kragenplatten parallel zur Dachplatte 1 verlaufende Schlitze, in welche die Verriegelungselemente 2.3 eingesteckt sind. Hierbei bewährt sich die polygonale Form des Kragens, indem die Verriegelungselemente 2.3 in den Schlitzen aufgrund der schräg zueinander stehenden Kragenplatten 2.1 abgestützt werden. Die Verriegelungselemente 2.3 werden erst eingesteckt, wenn das Innenteil 3 in das Außenteil 2 eingesetzt ist. Das in Fig. 4 dargestellte Innenteil 3 besitzt einen zylindrischen Ring 3.1, dessen Durchmesser kleiner ist als der kleinste Durchmesser des Kragens und an dessen Unterseite eine ringförmige Lagerplatte 3.2 angeschweißt ist, während an der Oberseite eine ringförmige Deckplatte 3.3 angeschweißt ist. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel besitzen sowohl die Deckplatte 3.3 als auch die Lagerplatte 3.2 einen polygonalen Außenumfang und einen kreisförmigen Innenumfang. Der minimale Außendurchmesser der Deckplatte entspricht mindestens dem minimalen Außendurchmesser des Kragens, während der maximale Außendurchmesser der Lagerplatte 3.2 kleiner ist als der minimale Innendurchmesser des Kragens aber größer als der Innendurchmesser des Kragenrings aus den Bodenplatten 2.2.In the outer part 2, an inner part is now used and anchored there in a form-fitting manner. In order to enable such a positive anchoring, 2 locking elements 2.3 are used in the outer part, which in Fig. 3 and 3A can be seen. For this purpose, the collar composed of the collar plates 2.1 in the corner regions of the adjoining collar plates parallel to the roof panel 1 extending slots, in which the locking elements 2.3 are inserted. This proves the polygonal shape of the collar by the locking elements 2.3 are supported in the slots due to the obliquely facing collar plates 2.1. The locking elements 2.3 are only inserted when the inner part 3 is inserted into the outer part 2. This in Fig. 4 illustrated inner part 3 has a cylindrical ring 3.1, whose diameter is smaller than the smallest diameter of the collar and on the underside of an annular bearing plate is welded 3.2, while at the top of an annular cover plate 3.3 is welded. In the illustrated embodiment, both the cover plate 3.3 and the bearing plate 3.2 have a polygonal outer circumference and a circular inner circumference. The minimum outer diameter of the cover plate corresponds to at least the minimum outer diameter of the collar, while the maximum outer diameter of the bearing plate 3.2 is smaller than the minimum inner diameter of the collar but larger than the inner diameter of the collar ring of the bottom plates 2.2.

Das Innenteil 3 wird nunmehr in das Außenteil 2 eingesetzt, die Verriegelungselemente werden in die Schlitze in den Eckbereichen der Kragenplatten 2.1 eingeschoben und der Innenraum der Zarge im Bereich zwischen Außenteil 2 und Innenteil 3 wird nach entsprechender Abdichtung durch Dichtungen 6.1 und 6.2 mit einer Vergußmasse 7 ausgefüllt. Dabei ist eine Dichtung 6.1 am oberen Ringspalt zwischen der Deckplatte 3.3 und der Oberkante der Kragenplatten 2.1 angeordnet und die andere Dichtung 6.2 befindet sich zwischen der Oberseite des sich aus den Bodenplatten 2.2 zusammensetzenden Kragenrings und der Unterseite der Lagerplatte 3.2. Damit ist das Innenteil 3 formschlüssig und fest im Außenteil 2 verankert, wie dies Fig. 5 und 6 zu entnehmen ist. Die Deckplatte 3.3 liegt dabei an der Oberseite des Außenteils 2 überstehend auf. Vor dem Einsetzen des Innenteils 3 in das Außenteil 2 kann das Innenteil 3 mit den für die Aufnahme des Drehlagers notwendigen engen Toleranzen bearbeitet werden.The inner part 3 is now inserted into the outer part 2, the locking elements are inserted into the slots in the corner regions of the collar plates 2.1 and the interior of the frame in the area between the outer part 2 and inner part 3 is after appropriate sealing by seals 6.1 and 6.2 with a potting 7th filled. Here is a seal 6.1 am arranged upper ring gap between the cover plate 3.3 and the upper edge of the collar plates 2.1 and the other seal 6.2 is located between the top of the composite of the bottom plates 2.2 collar ring and the underside of the bearing plate 3.2. Thus, the inner part 3 is positively and firmly anchored in the outer part 2, as this Fig. 5 and 6 can be seen. The cover plate 3.3 lies on the top of the outer part 2 projecting on. Before inserting the inner part 3 in the outer part 2, the inner part 3 can be edited with the necessary for receiving the pivot bearing close tolerances.

An der in dieser Weise fertiggestellten Zarge können, wie aus Fig. 5 und 6 zu ersehen, besondere Schutzmodule als Panzerschutz angeordnet werden. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel handelt es sich bei diesen Schutzmodulen um rechteckige Platten 4, die außen an den Kragenplatten 2.1 des Außenteils 2 angeordnet sind. Auch hier zeigt sich der Vorteil der polygonalen Ausbildung des Kragens, indem die Schutzmodule als ebene und rechtwinklig geschnittene Platten ausgebildet sein können.On the finished in this way frame can, as from Fig. 5 and 6 to see special protection modules are placed as armor protection. In the illustrated embodiment, these protection modules are rectangular plates 4, which are arranged on the outside of the collar plates 2.1 of the outer part 2. Again, the advantage of the polygonal design of the collar shows by the protection modules can be designed as a flat and rectangular cut plates.

Bei senkrechter Anordnung der Kragenplatten 2.1 ist es zum Schutz gegen Radarortung zweckmäßig, die Zarge im montierten Zustand durch eine Haube abzudecken, wie es in Fig. 5 - 7 dargestellt ist. Die Außenform der Haube 5, die von oben auf die Zarge aufgesetzt wird, ist an den polygonalen Umfang des Kragens angepaßt, wobei allerdings die den Kragenplatten 2.1 gegenüberliegenden Außenwände der Haube 5 schräg zur Dachplatte 1 verlaufen. Die Haube 5 ist hinsichtlich der Materialwahl und ihrer Form radarsignaturoptimiert ausgebildet und zwischen der Haube 5 und der Dachplatte 1 sowie im Oberteil der Haube können, wie aus Fig. 5 und 6 zu erkennen, Belüftungsschlitze vorgesehen sein.In vertical arrangement of the collar plates 2.1 it is expedient to protect against Radarortung to cover the frame in the assembled state by a hood, as in Fig. 5-7 is shown. The outer shape of the hood 5, which is placed on top of the frame, is adapted to the polygonal circumference of the collar, however, the outer walls of the hood 5 opposite the collar plates 2.1 extend obliquely to the roof panel 1. The hood 5 is radar signature optimized with respect to the choice of material and their shape and between the hood 5 and the roof panel 1 and in the upper part of the hood can, as from Fig. 5 and 6 to recognize ventilation slots be provided.
