Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wärmeschutzhülle (2) für ein Waffenrohr (1), insbesondere für ein Kanonenrohr, wobei die Wärmeschutzhülle (2) eine das Waffenrohr (1) umgebende Metallhülle (3) umfasst.The invention relates to a heat protection cover (2) for a weapon barrel (1), in particular for a gun barrel, wherein the heat protection cover (2) comprises a metal shell (3) surrounding the weapon barrel (1).

Um auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise eine ungleichmäßige Erwärmung der Rohroberfläche innerhalb der Wärmeschutzhülle (2) zu vermeiden, schlägt die Erfindung vor, an der der Unterseite (5) des Waffenrohres (1) gegenüberliegenden inneren Oberfläche (6) der Metallhülle (3) einen zusätzlichen, Wärmestrahlen besonders gut reflektierenden Bereich vorzusehen, so dass bei Erwärmung des Waffenrohres (1) die Temperaturunterschiede zwischen der Ober- und Unterseite des Waffenrohres (1) mindestens teilweise kompensiert werden. Als Wärmestrahlen gut reflektierender Bereich ist dabei eine mit der Metallhülle (3) kraftschlüssig verbundene Reflexionsfolie (4) vorgesehen.

Figure imgaf001
In order to avoid an uneven heating of the tube surface within the heat protection sleeve (2) in a simple and cost-effective manner, the invention proposes an additional surface on the underside (5) of the weapon barrel (1) opposite inner surface (6) of the metal shell (3) To provide heat rays particularly well reflective area, so that when heating the gun barrel (1), the temperature differences between the top and bottom of the gun barrel (1) are at least partially compensated. In this case, a reflecting film (4) frictionally connected to the metal shell (3) is provided as the heat-reflecting region.
