In order to specify a particularly armored vehicle (1) which can be assembled from a base vehicle (2) and an exchangeable mission module (3), in which the acceleration forces acting on the mission module (3) can be damped in a simple manner in the event of an explosion of landmines without For this purpose, the mission module (3) must be arranged within a housing part assigned to the base vehicle (2), the invention proposes, in order to reduce the shock effect of the mines on the mission module (3), in the upper area (11) on the base vehicle ( 2) attached, preferably plastically and / or elastically deformable, vertical support arms (9).

Description

The invention relates to a particular armored vehicle, which consists of a base vehicle and an exchangeable mounted on the base vehicle mission module.

Such an armored transport vehicle, for example, under the name "BOXER" on the Internet at http://www.rk-gammertingen.de/gtk.html (retrieved on: 19.09.2005) disclosed. The connection between the base vehicle and the mission module, which is generally designed as a safety cell, is not discussed in more detail in this publication. The same applies to the measures taken to protect the security cell from exploding land mines.

The DE 201 21 851 U1 describes an armored transport vehicle with a command post, which is integrated in a mission module. The mission module is replaceable mounted on a vehicle.

With the DE 201 22 290 U1 A container adapter for an armored transport vehicle is published. This is formed by a driving module and a mission module. A frame as an adapter is integrated between the two modules. This has bearings for receiving the mission module in the frame and container receiving points on the outside of the frame.

From the DE 196 53 283 C1 An armored vehicle is known in which a safety cell is located completely inside a vehicle housing and is supported via elastic bearing elements on the inner walls of the vehicle housing, so that the acceleration forces acting on the safety cell due to a mine explosion are reduced.

From the DE 2004 006 819 B4 Furthermore, an armored wheeled vehicle composed of individual vehicle modules is known in which the main module containing the safety cell consists of a housing part with a plastically deformable support structure, wherein the safety cell is elastically secured in the roof area of the support structure.

The invention has for its object to provide an assembled from a base vehicle and a mission module armored vehicle in which easily in the event of the explosion of land mines acting on the mission module acceleration forces can be attenuated, without requiring the mission module within one, the base vehicle assigned housing part must be arranged. In this case, the mission module may be both a security cell (crew room, paramedic space, etc.) and another semi-trailer.

This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further, particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention disclose the dependent claims.

The invention is based essentially on the idea to reduce the shock effect of the mines on the mission module to connect them at the top with attached to the base vehicle vertical support arms.

For this purpose, at least two vertical support arms are arranged on the base vehicle at the rear, at the upper ends of which rear-side, upper regions of the mission module are fastened. In addition, the wall regions of the base vehicle and of the mission module facing each other at least on the floor side have a predetermined vertical distance from one another, such that in the event of a mine explosion, the acceleration forces occurring thereby are coupled into the mission module on the upper side via the support arms.

To further reduce the mine shock, the support arms are designed resilient and preferably consist of a plastically and / or elastically deformable material.

It has also proved to be advantageous if the mission module is pivotally connected in its front upper area via at least two spaced-apart, hinge-like fastening elements to the base vehicle. This makes it possible to dispense with corresponding support arms in the front upper area of the mission module. Rather, the mission module in a mine explosion performs a slight pivoting movement about the corresponding hinge axes.

In order to achieve the best possible additional attenuation of the shock waves resulting from the mine explosion on the mission module, it is expedient if the base vehicle comprises an additional mine protection device at least in its area below the mission module. For this purpose, for example, the bottom portion of the base vehicle can be provided with protection modules or it can be arranged, for example, plastically or elastically deformable damping material between the mutually facing wall portions of the base vehicle and the mission module.

The support arms of the base vehicle can be positively, frictionally or cohesively connected to the mission module.

In addition, the support arms of the base vehicle may be located outside or within the mission module.

Further details and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following, explained with reference to figures embodiment. Show it:

1 the perspective view of the schematically illustrated base vehicle of an armored motor vehicle according to the invention and

2 this in 1 illustrated base vehicle with mounted mission module.

In 2 is with 1 an armored wheel vehicle called, which consists of a base vehicle 2 and a mission module 3 consists.

The base vehicle 2 has a front vehicle area 4 for receiving a drive motor, a middle vehicle area 5 for the accommodation of the driver of the wheeled vehicle 1 and a rear vehicle area 6 for receiving the exchangeable mission module 3 on ( 1 ).

In the mission module 3 it may, for example, be a security cell intended for the transport of soldiers.

At the base vehicle 2 are for fixing the mission module 3 on the one hand at the rear on the middle vehicle area 5 two strap-shaped hinge parts 7 arranged. On the other hand are at the rear end 8th the rear-end vehicle area 6 two, for example, transverse to the longitudinal axis 100 spaced, vertical support arms 9 ,

To attach the mission module 3 on the base vehicle 2 become the upper ends 10 the support arms 9 with rear upper areas 11 of the mission module 3 connected. Here are the lengths of the two support arms 9 chosen such that at least the bottom side mutually facing wall portions 12 . 13 of the base vehicle 2 and the mission module 3 have a predetermined vertical distance from each other, so that in the case of a mine explosion, the resulting acceleration forces, especially on the support arms 9 on the top in the mission module 3 be coupled.

For the front attachment of the mission module 3 at the base vehicle 2 serve hinge-like fasteners 14 , These consist essentially of the middle vehicle area 5 arranged, tab-shaped hinge parts 7 and corresponding, at the front-top of the mission module 3 arranged hinge parts, which via bolts 15 connected to each other.

As a result, in the case of a mine explosion usually a slight pivoting movement of the mission module 3 around the bolts 15 respectively.

Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. Thus, to further reduce the on the mission module 3 acting acceleration forces the support arms 9 be made flexible so that they deform plastically and / or elastically.

In addition, at the base vehicle 2 at least in his area below the mission module 3 an additional mine protection device can be arranged.

Furthermore, the hinges at the front upper end between the base vehicle and mission module can also be replaced by correspondingly long (and possibly compliant) support arms.

Finally, the armored vehicle according to the invention may also be a tracked vehicle instead of a wheeled vehicle.
