Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein geländegängiges Fahrzeug der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 definierten Gattung.The invention relates to an all-terrain vehicle of the type defined in the preamble of claim 1.

Solche geländegängigen Fahrzeuge werden bevorzugt zur mobilen Flugabwehr und/oder zur mobilen Flugaufklärung eingesetzt und sind in der Lage, ihren Standort sehr schnell zu wechseln. Damit der Mobilität wenig Grenzen gesetzt sind, werden kleine, leichte Allradfahrzeuge verwendet, wie sie als Geländewagen bekannt sind, die auch auf leichtem, unbefestigtem Untergrund operieren können.Such off-road vehicles are preferably used for mobile air defense and / or for mobile flight reconnaissance and are able to change their location very quickly. In order to limit mobility, small, light four-wheel drive vehicles are used, as they are known as off-road vehicles, which can also operate on light, unpaved ground.

Bei einem bekannten Fahrzeug dieser Art ist das mit Flugabwehrkörpern ausgestattete Flugabwehrgerät auf einem unmittelbar auf der Ladefläche montierten Drehkranz befestigt. Zwei Flugkörperabschußrohre (Launcher) sind an zwei vom Drehkranz senkrecht emporstehenden Tragsäulen in Elevation schwenkbar gehalten. Die Schwenkachse der Launcher liegt dabei oberhalb des Fahrerhausdaches, damit keine Einschränkung in der Abschußrichtung der Launcher bis hin zur Horizontalen in Kauf genommen werden muß. Alle anderen Gerätekomponenten sind in unmittelbarer Nähe des Drehkranzes angeordnet, so daß der Masseschwerpunkt des Flugabwehrgerätes sehr tief und in Fahrtrichtung gesehen vor der Kraftfahrzeug-Hinterachse liegt. Dadurch werden die Fahreigenschaften des Fahrzeugs trotz des relativ schweren Flugabwehrgerätes, dessen Gewicht nahe der zulässigen Nutzlast des Fahrzeugs liegt, nicht negativ beeinflußt. Um die zur Aufnahme des Drehkranzes ausreichend große Ladefläche zur Verfügung zu haben und diesen dabei so anzuordnen, daß der Masseschwerpunkt des Flugabwehrgerätes vor der Hinterachse des Fahrzeuges liegt, weist dieses Fahrzeug einen relativ langen Radstand, d.h. einen großen Abstand von Vorder- und Hinterachse, auf.In a known vehicle of this type, the anti-aircraft device equipped with anti-aircraft bodies is attached to a turntable mounted directly on the loading surface. Two missile launching tubes (launcher) are pivotably held in elevation on two support columns standing upright from the slewing ring. The swivel axis of the launcher is above the cab roof, so that no restriction in the launch direction of the launcher up to the horizontal has to be accepted. All other device components are arranged in the immediate vicinity of the turntable, so that the center of gravity of the anti-aircraft device is very low and seen in the direction of travel in front of the motor vehicle rear axle. This makes the vehicle's driving characteristics despite the relatively heavy Anti-aircraft device, the weight of which is close to the permissible payload of the vehicle, does not adversely affect. In order to have the loading area sufficiently large to accommodate the turntable and to arrange it so that the center of gravity of the anti-aircraft device lies in front of the rear axle of the vehicle, this vehicle has a relatively long wheelbase, ie a large distance from the front and rear axles .

Dieses bekannte Fahrzeug hat den Nachteil, daß es wegen seines langen Radstandes und wegen über das Fahrerhaus emporragender Geräteteile nicht in bestimmten Fluggeräten, wie Flugzeug, Helikopter u. dgl., transportiert werden kann, somit nicht luftverbringbar ist und sein Einsatzbereich damit deutlich eingeschränkt ist.This known vehicle has the disadvantage that it is not in certain aircraft, such as airplanes, helicopters and the like, because of its long wheelbase and because of the device parts protruding above the cab. Like., Can be transported, so it is not airborne and its area of use is therefore significantly limited.

Aus der DE-OS 2 205 826 ist eine leichte, bewegliche Kampfplattform für Boden-Boden- und Boden-Luft-Einsatz auf einer Selbstfahrlafette bekannt, bei welcher eine Gruppe leichter Abwehrwaffen (z.B. mehrere lenkbare Raketen) auf einer Trägereinheit angeordnet sind, die mittels einer hydraulischen Hebevorrichtung weit über das Fahrerhaus emporgehoben werden kann. Eine Absenkung der Trägereinheit auf Fahrerhaushöhe ist möglich. Eine solche hydraulische Hebevorrichtung ist wegen ihres großen Gewichtes wenig geeignet für leichte Radfahrzeuge, da die Gewichtssumme von Gerät, Trägereinheit und hydraulischer Hebeeinrichtung in den meisten Anwendungsfällen die für das Fahrzeug zugelassene Nutzlast überschreitet.From DE-OS 2 205 826 a light, movable combat platform for surface-to-surface and surface-to-air use on a self-propelled gun is known, in which a group of light defense weapons (for example several steerable missiles) are arranged on a carrier unit, which means a hydraulic lifting device can be lifted far above the cab. It is possible to lower the carrier unit to the cab height. Such a hydraulic lifting device is not very suitable for light wheeled vehicles because of its great weight, since the total weight of the device, carrier unit and hydraulic lifting device exceeds the payload approved for the vehicle in most applications.

Bei einem bekannten Patrouillenfahrzeug zum schnellen Einsatz bei der Terrorismusbekämpfung (US 4 667 565) ist ein Maschinengewehr auf einem Drehkranz befestigt, der seinerseits in einem am Fahrzeugboden schwenkbeweglich gehaltenen Schwenkgestell aufgenommen ist. Das Schwekgestell besteht aus zwei Längsholmen, die an einem Ende in nahe der Fahrerkabine am Fahrzeugboden angeordneten Schwenklagern aufgenommen sind und am anderen Ende den Drehkranz tragen sowie durch der Gestellversteifung dienende Querholme miteinander verstrebt sind. Außerhalb des Bekämpfungseinsatzes ist das Maschinengewehr mit Drehkranz und Schwenkgestell hin zum Fahrzeugboden abgeschwenkt und innerhalb des geschlossenen Laderaums des Fahrzeugaufbaus versteckt. Zum Kampfeinsatz wird das Schwenkgestell vertikal aufgerichtet und fahrzeugseitig verriegelt, so daß das Maschinengewehr durch eine Dachluke im Fahrzeugaufbau hindurch über das Dach emporsteht und mittels des Drehkranzes in der Horizontalebene und innerhalb eines auf dem Drehkranz befestigten Lagerbocks vertikal geschwenkt werden kann. Eine solche Schwenkgestellkonstruktion ist nicht für die Unterbringung von schwerem Gerät, wie Flugabwehr- und Flugaufklärungsgeräte, geeignet, weder in bezug auf die statischen Anforderungen an das Schwenkgestell, noch in bezug auf die von einem geländegängigen Fahrzeug mit kurzem Radstand gegebenen Voraussetzungen.In a known patrol vehicle for rapid deployment in the fight against terrorism (US 4,667,565), a machine gun is attached to a turntable, which in turn can be pivoted in a manner on the vehicle floor held swivel frame is added. The swivel frame consists of two longitudinal spars, which are accommodated at one end in swivel bearings located near the driver's cab on the vehicle floor and carry the turntable at the other end, and which are braced together by the frame stiffeners that serve to reinforce the frame. Outside the combat insert, the machine gun with swivel head and swivel frame is swung down to the vehicle floor and hidden within the closed loading space of the vehicle body. For combat purposes, the swivel frame is set up vertically and locked on the vehicle side, so that the machine gun rises through a roof hatch in the vehicle body over the roof and can be swiveled vertically by means of the turntable in the horizontal plane and within a bearing block attached to the turntable. Such a swivel frame construction is not suitable for the accommodation of heavy equipment, such as anti-aircraft and reconnaissance devices, neither in relation to the static requirements for the swivel frame, nor in relation to the requirements given by an all-terrain vehicle with a short wheelbase.

Ein ebenfalls bekanntes Kettenfahrzeug (US 3 800 659) ist mit einem Raketenwerfer ausgerüstet, der vollständig in den Innenraum des Fahrzeugs aufgenommen ist und zum Einsatz durch eine Luke nach oben herausgeschwenkt und in einer Schußposition oberhalb des Fahrzeugaufbaus verriegelt werden kann. Der Raketenwerfer ist dabei nahe dem hinteren Ende des Fahrzeugs angeordnet und wird um eine nahe der Rückwand und Dachoberkante des Fahrzeugs festgelegte Schwenkachse geschwenkt. Eine solche Konstruktion ist nicht für leichte Radfahrzeuge geeignet.A likewise known tracked vehicle (US 3 800 659) is equipped with a rocket launcher which is completely accommodated in the interior of the vehicle and can be swung out for use by a hatch and can be locked in a firing position above the vehicle body. The rocket launcher is arranged near the rear end of the vehicle and is pivoted about a pivot axis defined near the rear wall and top edge of the vehicle. Such a construction is not suitable for light wheeled vehicles.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein geländegängiges, leichtes Fahrzeug mit kurzem Radstand mit einem Gerät zur Flugabwehr und/oder Flugaufklärung so auszurüsten, daß es den Forderungen nach Luftverbringbarkeit genügt und dabei weder das Gerät in seiner Funktion noch das Fahrzeug in seinen Fahreigenschaften beeinträchtigt wird.The invention has for its object to equip an off-road, light vehicle with a short wheelbase with a device for air defense and / or flight reconnaissance so that it meets the requirements for air transportability and neither the function of the device nor the vehicle is impaired in its driving properties .

Die Aufgabe ist bei einem Fahrzeug der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 definierten Gattung erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale im Kennzeichenteil des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.The object is achieved according to the invention in a vehicle of the type defined in the preamble of claim 1 by the features in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Das erfindungsgemäße Fahrzeug hat den Vorteil, daß es in Transportstellung des Gerätes luftverbringbar ist, d.h. daß das Gerät mit tief zum Boden hin verlegtem Masseschwerpunkt innerhalb der für die Luftverbringbarkeit vorgegebenen Umrißkontur des mit kurzem Radabstand konzipierten Fahrzeugs verbleibt, daß in Transportstellung des Geräts, seine guten Fahreigenschaften durch den tief zum Boden hin verlegten Masseschwerpunkt von Gerät und Plattform unbeeinträchtigt bleiben und daß das Gerät in seiner herbeiführbaren Gebrauchsstellung, die üblicherweise nur bei Fahrzeugstillstand genutzt wird, oberhalb der Dachoberkante liegt und sich somit in für seine volle Funktionsfähigkeit ausreichender Höhe über dem Boden befindet. Die schwenkbare Plattform ermöglicht eine leichte Gestellkonstruktion zu ihrer Befestigung auf der Ladefläche, die z.B. aus Aluminium-Hohlprofilen bestehen kann, so daß das Gestellgewicht niedrig gehalten werden kann und das Gesamtgewicht von Gerät, insbesondere Abschußgerät, und Plattform mit Gestell innerhalb der Nutzlastgrenzen des leichten Radfahrzeugs bleibt.The vehicle according to the invention has the advantage that it is air-displaceable in the transport position of the device, that is to say that the device with a center of gravity which is laid low to the ground remains within the contour of the vehicle designed with a short wheelbase for the air-transportability, that its good position remains in the transport position of the device Driving characteristics remain unaffected by the center of gravity of the device and platform, which is laid low to the floor, and that the device in its manageable position of use, which is usually only used when the vehicle is at a standstill, lies above the roof edge and is therefore at a height above the floor that is sufficient for its full functionality . The swiveling platform enables a light frame construction for its attachment to the loading surface, which can consist, for example, of aluminum hollow profiles, so that the frame weight can be kept low and the total weight of the device, in particular the launching device, and the platform with frame within the payload limits of the light wheeled vehicle remains.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen des erfindungsgemäßen Fahrzeugs mit weiteren Ausgestaltungen und Verbesserungen der Erfindung sind in den weiteren Ansprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the vehicle according to the invention with further refinements and improvements of the invention are specified in the further claims.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung liegt die das Gerät aufnehmende Oberfläche der Plattform in der Gebrauchsstellung der Plattform mit nur geringem Abstand von der Dachumrißkante des Fahrerhauses. Das Gerät befindet sich damit in seiner Gebrauchslage komplett oberhalb des Fahrerhauses, was eine uneingeschränkte Schwenkbeweglichkeit des Gerätes um seine horizontale Achse auch in Richtung zum Boden sicherstellt. Damit können auf der Plattform auch Bekämpfungssysteme installiert werden, die gegen Bodenziele gerichtet sind.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the surface of the platform receiving the device is in the use position of the platform with only a small distance from the roof edge of the driver's cab. The device is in its position of use completely above the driver's cab, which ensures unrestricted swiveling of the device about its horizontal axis also towards the floor. This means that control systems can also be installed on the platform that are aimed at ground targets.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist das die Plattform tragende Gestell einen parallel zur Ladefläche sich etwa horizontal erstreckenden U-förmigen Rahmen mit von dem Fahrerhaus abgekehrter U-Öffnung auf. Der Rahmen ist über Stützstreben auf der Ladefläche befestigt, und die Plattform ist mit ihrer Schwenkachse nahe dem Quersteg des U-Rahmens so angeordnet, daß sie in ihrer Gebrauchsstellung entweder an der Unterseite des Rahmens anliegt oder in die Rahmenebene einschwenkt. In dieser Gebrauchsstellung kann die Plattform am Rahmen verriegelt werden.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame supporting the platform has a U-shaped frame which extends approximately horizontally parallel to the loading area and has a U-opening facing away from the cab. The frame is attached to the bed by means of support struts, and the platform is arranged with its pivot axis near the crossbar of the U-frame so that in its use position it either rests against the underside of the frame or swivels into the plane of the frame. In this position of use, the platform can be locked to the frame.

Die Launcher 16 sind um eine Horizontalachse 19 schwenkbar und um eine Vertikalachse 20 drehbar, wozu das Flugabwehrgerät 15 über einen Drehkranz 21 mit dem Fahrzeug 10 verbunden ist und die Launcher 16 zwischen zwei rechtwinklig von dem Drehkranz 21 abstehenden Lagerböcken 22 gelagert sind.The light, all-terrain vehicle 10 sketched in a side view in FIG. 1 is an all-terrain vehicle with four-wheel drive and a relatively short wheelbase, that is to say a short distance between the front axle 11 and the rear axle 12, which is designed in such a way that its dimensions (length, width, height) allow loading allowed in a designated transport aircraft. This vehicle 10 is equipped with an anti-aircraft device 15 known per se, which is mounted on a loading area 14 behind a two-seat cab 13. This known anti-aircraft device 15 has two rigidly coupled launch tubes, so-called launcher 16, for firing anti-aircraft bodies with an infrared target seeker and a fire control system for target acquisition, target tracking, meeting point calculation and launcher setting. The components of the fire control system are designated 17 and 18 in FIGS. 1 and 2. The launcher 16 can be pivoted about a horizontal axis 19 and rotated about a vertical axis 20, for which purpose the anti-aircraft device 15 is connected to the vehicle 10 via a turntable 21 and the launcher 16 are mounted between two bearing blocks 22 protruding at right angles from the turntable 21.

Das Flugabwehrgerät 15 ist über den Drehkranz 21 auf einer Plattform 23 befestigt, die in einem auf der Ladefläche 14 des Fahrzeugs 10 verankerten Gestell 24 schwenkbar angeordnet ist. Die Schwenkachse 25 erstreckt sich dabei etwa horizontal parallel zur Ladefläche 14. Das Gestell 24 umfaßt einen sich etwa parallel zur Ladefläche 14 unterhalb des höchsten Punktes 26' der Dachumrißkante 26 des Fahrerhauses 10 und möglichst nahe dieser angeordneten U-förmigen Rahmen 27, wie er in Fig. 4 und 5 zu sehen ist, sowie an dem Rahmen 27 angreifende Stützstreben, über welche der Rahmen 27 auf der Ladefläche 14 abgestützt ist. Der U-förmige Rahmen 27 ist dabei so ausgerichtet, daß die U-Öffnung vom Fahrerhaus 13 abgekehrt ist, der Quersteg 271 des Rahmens 27 quer zur Fahrzeuglängsachse nahe dem Fahrerhaus 13 liegt und die Schenkel 272 und 273 des Rahmens 27 sich im Abstand voneinander parallel zur Fahrzeuglängsachse erstrecken. Die Stützstreben werden insgesamt von zwei Vertikalstreben 28, die sich im Abstand voneinander parallel zur Fahrerhausrückwand vertikal erstrecken, von zwei im Abstand voneinander schräg verlaufenden Schrägstreben 29, von zwei Paaren jeweils im Parallelabstand voneinander verlaufenden Versteifungsstreben 30 und 31 und von einer Querstrebe 31 (Fig. 4 und 5) gebildet. Die Vertikalstreben 28 greifen im Bereich des Quersteges 271 jeweils an einem der Schenkel 272, 273 des U-förmigen Rahmens 27 an und verlaufen etwa parallel zur Fahrerhausrückwand. Die beiden Schrägstreben 29 greifen im Bereich der U-Öffnung an den beiden Schenkeln 272 und 273 des U-förmigen Rahmens 27 an und sind weit hinter der Hinterachse 12 des Fahrzeugs 10 nahe dem Ende der Ladefläche 14 auf dieser befestigt. Von den insgesamt vier Versteifungsstreben 30, 31 verlaufen die beiden Versteifungsstreben 30 vom Fußpunkt der Vertikalstreben 28 zu den Schenkeln 272, 273 des Rahmens 27 und die beiden Versteifungsstreben 31 vom Fußpunkt der Schrägstreben 29 zu den Vertikalstreben 28, an denen sie mit Abstand von dem Rahmen 27 befestigt sind. Die quer zur Fahrzeuglängsachse sich erstreckende Querstrebe 32 (Fig. 4 und 5) verbindet die beiden Schrägstreben 29 im Abstand von deren Fußpunkten miteinander.The anti-aircraft device 15 is fastened via the turntable 21 to a platform 23 which is pivotably arranged in a frame 24 anchored on the loading surface 14 of the vehicle 10. The pivot axis 25 extends approximately horizontally parallel to the loading area 14. The frame 24 comprises an approximately parallel to the loading area 14 below the highest point 26 'of the roof edge 26 of the driver's cab 10 and as close as possible to this U-shaped frame 27, as shown in FIG 4 and 5 can be seen, as well as support struts acting on the frame 27, by means of which the frame 27 is supported on the loading surface 14. The U-shaped frame 27 is oriented so that the U-opening is turned away from the cab 13, the crosspiece 271 of the frame 27 is located transversely to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle near the cab 13 and the legs 272 and 273 of the frame 27 are parallel to one another at a distance extend to the vehicle's longitudinal axis. The support struts are made up of a total of two vertical struts 28, which extend vertically at a distance from one another parallel to the rear wall of the cab, from two oblique struts 29 which run obliquely at a distance from one another, from two pairs of stiffening struts 30 and 31 each running at a parallel distance from one another and from a cross strut 31 (FIG. 4 and 5). The vertical struts 28 each engage one of the legs 272, 273 of the U-shaped frame 27 in the region of the crosspiece 271 and run approximately parallel to the rear wall of the cab. The two oblique struts 29 engage in the region of the U opening on the two legs 272 and 273 of the U-shaped frame 27 and are fastened on the rear surface 12 of the vehicle 10 close to the rear axle 12 near the end of the latter. Of the total of four stiffening struts 30, 31, the two stiffening struts 30 run from the base point of the vertical struts 28 to the legs 272, 273 of the frame 27 and the two stiffening struts 31 from the base of the oblique struts 29 to the vertical struts 28, to which they are attached at a distance from the frame 27. The transverse strut 32 (FIGS. 4 and 5) extending transversely to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle connects the two oblique struts 29 at a distance from their base points.

Die Plattform 23 ist über zwei mit der Schwenkachse 25 fluchtende Lagerzapfen 33, 34 in den Schenkeln 272, 273 des U-förmigen Rahmens 27 drehbar gelagert, wie dies in Fig. 4 und 5 schematisch angedeutet ist. Um diese Schwenkachse 25 kann die Plattform 23 nunmehr so geschwenkt werden, daß sie in ihrer Gebrauchsstellung vollständig in den Rahmen 27 einschwenkt, so daß sie auf der Ober- und Unterseite im wesentlichen bündig mit dem Rahmen 27 ist. In dieser Gebrauchsstellung kann die Plattform 23 am Rahmen 27 mittels am Rahmen 27 und an der Plattform 23 angeordneter Verriegelungszapfen 35 und 36 verriegelt werden. Nach Entriegelung kann die Plattform 23 abgeschwenkt werden, bis sie in ihrer Transportstellung (Fig. 2, 3 und 4) sich entlang der Fahrerhausrückwand annähernd vertikal erstreckt. Beim Abklappen der Plattform 23 schwenkt das Flugabwehrgerät 15 durch den U-förmigen Rahmen 27 hindurch und liegt in der Transportstellung der Plattform 23 unterhalb des Rahmens 27 und damit unterhalb der Dachumrißkante 26 des Fahrerhauses 13, wie dies in Fig. 2 dargestellt ist. Damit ragt das Flugabwehrgerät 15 in der Transportstellung nicht über die höchste Umrißlinie 26 des Fahrzeugs hinaus, so daß das von der Umrißkante 26 vorgegebene Höchstmaß zur Verladung in Flugzeugen eingehalten wird. Wie aus Fig. 2 auch ersehen werden kann, liegt aufgrund der Anordnung der Schwenkachse 25 der Plattform 23 am oder nahe dem Quersteg 271 des U-förmigen Rahmens 27 in der Transportstellung der Masseschwerpunkt des Abschußgerätes 15 vor der Fahrzeughinterachse 12 und relativ nahe an der Ladefläche 14. Dadurch wird in der Transportstellung eine Gewichtsverteilung auf der Ladefläche 14 erreicht, die die Fahreigenschaften des Fahrzeugs nicht negativ beeinflußt. Wie Fig. 2 außerdem noch verdeutlicht, werden vor Abschwenken der Plattform 23 die Launcher 16 vertikal nach oben geschwenkt, so daß sie in der Transportstellung etwa parallel zur Ladefläche 14, also horizontal, ausgerichtet sind und damit ebenfalls unterhalb der höchsten Umrißlinie 26 des Fahrzeugs 10 liegen.The platform 23 is rotatably mounted in the legs 272, 273 of the U-shaped frame 27 via two bearing journals 33, 34 aligned with the pivot axis 25, as is indicated schematically in FIGS. 4 and 5. The platform 23 can now be pivoted about this pivot axis 25 in such a way that in its position of use it swivels completely into the frame 27, so that it is essentially flush with the frame 27 on the top and bottom. In this position of use, the platform 23 can be locked on the frame 27 by means of locking pins 35 and 36 arranged on the frame 27 and on the platform 23. After unlocking, the platform 23 can be pivoted until it extends approximately vertically along the rear wall of the cab in its transport position (FIGS. 2, 3 and 4). When the platform 23 is folded down, the anti-aircraft device 15 pivots through the U-shaped frame 27 and, in the transport position of the platform 23, lies below the frame 27 and thus below the roof edge 26 of the driver's cab 13, as shown in FIG. 2. Thus, the anti-aircraft device 15 does not protrude beyond the highest contour line 26 of the vehicle in the transport position, so that the maximum dimension specified by the contour edge 26 for loading in aircraft is maintained. As can also be seen from FIG. 2, due to the arrangement of the pivot axis 25, the Platform 23 on or near the crossbar 271 of the U-shaped frame 27 in the transport position, the center of gravity of the launcher 15 in front of the vehicle rear axle 12 and relatively close to the loading surface 14. This results in a weight distribution in the transport position on the loading surface 14, which the driving characteristics of the vehicle is not adversely affected. As is also clear from FIG. 2, before the platform 23 is pivoted away, the launcher 16 is pivoted vertically upward, so that in the transport position they are aligned approximately parallel to the loading area 14, that is to say horizontally, and thus also below the highest contour line 26 of the vehicle 10 lie.

Das Auf- und Abschwenken der Plattform 23 aus der Transportstellung in die Gebrauchsstellung und umgekehrt kann in verschiedener Weise motorisch bewerkstelligt werden. Wegen des geringen Gewichtes wird dabei eine vom Fahrzeugmotor abgeleitete motorische oder elektromotorische Betätigung der Plattform bevorzugt. Wie in Fig. 1 nur schematisch angedeutet ist, ist im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel an den Vertikalstreben 28 eine Elektromotorwinde 37 angeordnet, die ein Zugseil 38 auf- und abzuwickeln vermag, das im Bereich des Quersteges 271 des Rahmens 27 mittels einer Rolle 39 um etwa 90° umgelenkt wird und an dem von der Schwenkachse 25 abgekehrten freien Ende der Plattform 23 angreift. Die Elektromotorwinde 37 kann alternativ auf der Ladefläche 14 befestigt werden. Zum Schwenken der Plattform 23 kann aber auch eine Teleskopspindel verwendet werden, die sich an der Plattform 23 und am Gestell 24 abstützt.The pivoting up and down of the platform 23 from the transport position into the use position and vice versa can be accomplished by motor in various ways. Because of the low weight, motorized or electromotive actuation of the platform derived from the vehicle engine is preferred. As indicated only schematically in FIG. 1, in the present exemplary embodiment, an electric motor winch 37 is arranged on the vertical struts 28, which can wind and unwind a traction cable 38, which in the region of the crossbar 271 of the frame 27 by means of a roller 39 by approximately 90 ° is deflected and engages on the free end of the platform 23 facing away from the pivot axis 25. The electric motor winch 37 can alternatively be attached to the loading surface 14. To pivot the platform 23, a telescopic spindle can also be used, which is supported on the platform 23 and on the frame 24.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf das vorstehend beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt. So können auf der schwenkbaren Plattform 23 anstelle eines Flugabwehrgerätes verschiedene Geräte installiert werden, z.B. ein Radar oder ein Infrarotsuchkopf zur Flugaufklärung aber auch leichte Feuerwaffen. Die Plattform 23 kann auch so ausgeführt werden, daß sie in ihrer Gebrauchsstellung nicht in die U-Öffnung des Rahmens 27 eintaucht, sondern mit ihrer Oberfläche an der Unterseite des Rahmens 27, dessen U-Öffnung abdeckend, anliegt.The invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiment described above. So on the swiveling platform 23 instead of an anti-aircraft device Various devices are installed, for example a radar or an infrared search head for flight reconnaissance, but also light firearms. The platform 23 can also be designed so that it does not dip into the U-opening of the frame 27 in its position of use, but rests with its surface on the underside of the frame 27, covering its U-opening.
