Definitions
- the present invention concerns a turret, particularly for an armoured military vehicle, like for example a tank or an armoured personnel carrier (APC), equipped with a support structure for a firearm, like for example a heavy machinegun.
- an armoured military vehicle like for example a tank or an armoured personnel carrier (APC)
- APC armoured personnel carrier
- armoured military vehicle comprises both wheeled or tracked armoured vehicles capable of withstanding direct shots from light firearms by infantry, and wheeled or more often tracked armoured military vehicles capable of withstanding shots from medium-calibre cannons.
- Armoured military vehicles typically include a turret that is able to swivel around a vertical axis of rotation and on the upper face of which a firearm, such as for example a heavy machinegun (or autocannon), in other words a firearm firing in bursts projectiles having a calibre of between 20 mm and 40 mm, is mounted, through a suitable support structure, with which a machinegun, in other words a firearm firing in bursts projectiles without explosive charge having a calibre of less than 20 mm, optionally may be associated.
- a firearm such as for example a heavy machinegun (or autocannon)
- a machinegun in other words a firearm firing in bursts projectiles without explosive charge having a calibre of less than 20
- Figure 1 of the attached drawings illustrates an armoured military vehicle 10, in particular an APC (SAVIEM VAB 6x6 model), equipped with a turret 12 (GIAT Toucan 1 model) on which a heavy machinegun 14 (20 mm calibre GIAT M693 model) is mounted through a support structure 16.
- the turret 12 also includes a machinegun 15 (7.62 mm calibre) mounted parallel to the heavy machinegun 14.
- the heavy machinegun 14 is hinged to the support structure 16 so as to be able to rotate around a transversal horizontal axis of rotation X to tilt the firing axis of the heavy machinegun upwards or downwards with respect to the horizontal.
- International Patent Application WO2005/118295 provides a support structure for a firearm on a turret of a military vehicle, comprising a horizontal rotary support shaft, on which the firearm is installed so as to rotate as a unit, and a stand mechanism arranged to move continuously the support shaft vertically between a lower travel-limit position and an upper travel-limit position.
- the stand mechanism includes four legs hinged in pairs around an axis coinciding with the axis of rotation of the support shaft so as to take up an inverted V-shaped configuration, as well as a worm screw driving device arranged to drive the movement of the two pairs of legs towards or apart from one another, in order to move the axis of rotation of the firearm upwards or downwards, respectively.
- US patent 4,706,543 discloses a turret of an armoured military vehicle, in particular a tank, equipped with a support structure for a firearm comprising a lower support element intended to be fixed onto the upper face of the turret and a pair of swivel arms arranged symmetrically with respect to a vertical centre plane of the vehicle. Each of the swivel arms is articulated at its front end to the support structure and at its rear end to the firearm in an intermediate point thereof.
- First hydraulic linear actuators control the rotational movement of the two swivel arms around a first transverse horizontal axis of rotation between a lowered rest position and a raised firing position
- second hydraulic linear actuators control the rotational movement of the firearm with respect to the two swivel arms around a second transverse horizontal axis of rotation (aiming movement).
- This known solution which reproduces the combination of characteristics specified in the preamble of the attached independent claim 1, also suffers from the drawback of not allowing the aiming movement of the firearm when the two swivel arms are arranged in the lowered position. In order to be able to carry out aiming it is therefore necessary to move the second axis of rotation away from the turret by forward and upward rotation of the two swivel arms.
- the firearm-carrying beam is articulated with its rear end to the rear end of the connection beam and that the firearm is received in the firearm-carrying beam substantially so as not to project out from the back of it, it is possible to obtain the required angular excursion, both in positive elevation and in negative elevation, reducing the front shape of the firearm to the minimum. More specifically, the positive elevation of the firearm is obtained by rotating just the firearm-carrying beam upwards around the rear axis of rotation, whereas the negative elevation is obtained by rotating just the connection beam upwards around the front axis of rotation.
- the reduction of the total height of the military vehicle deriving from the reduction in front shape of the firearm makes not only the firearm but the entire vehicle more difficult to target and therefore less vulnerable.
- an armoured military vehicle in the illustrated example the VTT SAVIEM VAB 6x6 is generally indicated 10 and includes a turret 12 according to the present invention, onto which a firearm 14 (in the illustrated example the heavy machinegun 20 mm calibre GIAT M693) is mounted through a support structure 16. Parallel to the heavy machinegun 14 it is also possible to install a machinegun 15 (in the illustrated example a 7,62 mm calibre machinegun).
- the support structure 16 basically includes a firearm-carrying beam 18 that carries the firearm 14, a base 20 that is fixed onto the upper face of the turret 12, and a connection beam 22 that is articulated at its ends both to the firearm-carrying beam 18 and to the base 20.
- the firearm-carrying beam 18 has a channel-like configuration with a substantially U-shaped cross section.
- the firearm 14 is partially received in the firearm-carrying beam 18 substantially so as not to project from the back of the beam itself, as can clearly be observed in Figure 3 .
- One of the two side walls of the firearm-carrying beam 18 has an opening 24 to allow ammunition to be loaded into the firearm 14.
- the connection beam 22 is articulated at its front end to the front end of the base 20 by means of a first articulation pin 26 so as to be able to rotate around a first transverse horizontal axis of rotation X1.
- the firearm-carrying beam 18 is also articulated at its rear end to the rear end of the connection beam 22 by means of a second articulation pin 28 so as to be able to rotate around a second transverse horizontal axis of rotation X2.
- the support structure 16 has associated actuation means ( per sé known and not illustrated), for example of the hydraulic type, arranged to control both the rotation of the firearm-carrying beam 18 with respect to the connection beam 22 around the second axis of rotation X2 and the rotation of the connection beam 22 with respect to the base 20 around the first axis of rotation X1 independently from each other.
- actuation means can for example include first hydraulic linear actuators (one or two in number) interposed between the base 20 and the connection beam 22 to control the rotation of the latter around the first axis of rotation X1 and second hydraulic linear actuators (one or two in number) interposed between the connection beam 22 and the firearm-carrying beam 18 to control the rotation of the latter around the second axis of rotation X2.
- the upward rotational movement of the firearm 14 (positive elevation) is obtained by upward rotation (in the clockwise direction with respect to the observer of Figure 6 ) of just the firearm-carrying beam 18 around the second axis of rotation X2, whereas the downward rotational movement of the firearm 14 (negative elevation) is obtained by rotating just the connection beam 22 downwards (in the anti-clockwise direction with respect to the observer of Figure 6 ) around the first axis of rotation X1.
- the table of Figure 6 also allows the support structure of the invention to be directly compared with a support structure according to the prior art, in particular according to Figure 1 .
- the support structure of the prior art is depicted, including the firearm, in the position of maximum positive elevation (elevating arc equal to 50°), in the position of neutral elevation (elevating arc equal to 0°) and in the position of maximum negative elevation (elevating arc equal to -10°), respectively, whereas in the second column the support structure of the invention is depicted in the same three positions indicated above.
- the invention makes it possible to obtain a significant reduction in the front shape of the support structure and firearm unit compared to the prior art, which in the proposed example is of the order of 300 mm.
- the invention makes it possible to obtain a wider angular excursion (in particular in positive elevation) without the need to shift the axis of rotation of the firearm upwards and therefore reducing the vulnerability both of the firearm itself and of the entire military vehicle to the maximum.
