Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine minengeschützte Panzerwannenstruktur mit einem insbesondere die Unterseite des Panzerfahrzeuges schützenden Bodenblech.The invention relates to a mine-protected tank trough structure with a in particular the underside of the armored vehicle protective bottom plate.

Landminen sind aufgrund ihrer extrem hohen Zerstörungskraft verbunden mit einem häufigen Vorkommen in Krisen- und Kriegsgebieten eine große Gefahr für Fahrzeuge und deren Besatzung. Da insbesondere bei friedenssichernden Einsätzen die Wahrscheinlichkeit auf Minen aufzufahren hoch ist, werden auch bei leicht gepanzerten Fahrzeugen höchste Anforderungen an den Schutz gegen Landminen gestellt.Land mines are linked to one due to their extremely high destructive power frequent occurrences in crisis and war zones is a major threat to vehicles and their crew. Especially in peacekeeping operations the The probability of picking up mines is high, even in lightly armored Vehicles have the highest requirements for protection against landmines.

Ältere Fahrzeuge mit geringen bzw. ungenügenden Minenschutz werden üblicherweise mit Schutzblechen, welche an die Bodenunterseite geschraubt werden, nachgerüstet. Diese Bauart hat den Nachteil, dass ein hoher Gewichtsaufwand entsteht, und dadurch sowohl die Nutzlast als auch die Mobilität wesentlich eingeschränkt wird.Older vehicles with low or insufficient mine protection usually become retrofitted with mudguards which are screwed to the bottom of the floor. This design has the disadvantage that a high weight expenditure arises, and thereby Both payload and mobility are significantly reduced.

Bei modernen, gewichtsmäßig optimierten Fahrzeugen hingegen kann der erforderliche Minenschutz bereits bei der Konzeption berücksichtigt und in die Fahrzeugkonzeption integriert werden.In modern, weight optimized vehicles, however, the required Mine protection already considered in the design and in the vehicle design to get integrated.

Die wesentliche Wirkungsweise von Blastminen gegen gepanzerte Strukturen beruht auf einem extremen Gasdruck, der fast wie ein Geschoss die gepanzerte Struktur belastet. Da sich die Druckwelle dreidimensional ausdehnt, sinkt die Energiedichte mit zunehmender Entfernung stark ab, und der Druckkegel verliert an Wirkung.The essential mode of action of blast mines against armored structures is based on an extreme gas pressure, which almost like a bullet the armored structure loaded. As the pressure wave expands three-dimensionally, the energy density decreases Increasing distance from strong, and the pressure cone loses its effect.

Neben der Panzerblechstruktur sind die Schweißnähte die wesentliche Schwachstelle, da sie einerseits technologiebedingt eine geringere Festigkeit als der Panzerstahl aufweisen, und andererseits durch das Schweißverfahren es in der Wärmeeinflusszone zu einer Aufhärtung kommt, die als innere Kerbe das Grundmaterial in diesem Bereich versprödet und damit rissanfällig gegen die schlagartige Beanspruchung des Detonationsdruckes bei einer Minenexplosion macht.In addition to the armor plate structure, the welds are the main vulnerability, because on the one hand technology-related lower strength than the steel armor and on the other hand by the welding process in the heat affected zone comes to a hardening, as the inner notch the basic material in this area embrittled and thus prone to cracking against the sudden stress of the Detonation pressure during a mine explosion.

Um die Auswirkungen dieser bekannten Schwachstellen in Bezug auf Minenschutz zu verringern, wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, die nicht vermeidbaren Schweißnähte, die technologiebedingt eine wesentlich geringere Festigkeit als die zu verbindenden Panzerplatten aufweisen, und die durch den Schweißprozess bedingten Aufhärtungsbereiche in der Wärmeeinflusszone in Bereiche mit bereits reduzierter Wirkkraft des Detonationsdruckes zu verlegen, und durch zusätzliche Schutzbleche über den Schweißnähten eine Entlastung der Schweißung zu bewirken. Überdies soll ein freies Expandieren des Detonationsdruckes ermöglicht werden.To the effects of these known shortcomings in terms of mine protection too reduce is proposed according to the invention, the unavoidable Welded seams, the technology-related significantly lower strength than the have connecting armor plates, and caused by the welding process Curing areas in the heat affected zone in areas with already reduced To lay effect of the detonation pressure, and by additional mudguards to relieve the weld over the welds. Moreover, should allowing free expansion of the detonation pressure.

Erreicht wird dies durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1.This is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further features of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Nachstehend ist die Erfindung an Hand von in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert, ohne auf diese Beispiele beschränkt zu sein. Dabei zeigen die Fig. 1 bis Fig. 4 schematisch verschiedene Schutzbleche und Fig. 5 stellt in schaubildlicher Ansicht ein Panzerfahrzeug von unten dar.The invention will now be described with reference to the drawings Embodiments explained in more detail, without being limited to these examples. FIGS. 1 to 4 schematically show various protective plates and FIG. 5 represents a perspective view of an armored vehicle from below.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine als Schutzblech 1 ausgebildete Schweißnahtabdeckung, die erfindungsgemäß eine Schweißnaht 4 zwischen Seitenwand 2 und Bodenplatte 3 abdeckt, wobei sowohl der bodenseitige Schenkel des Schutzbleches 1 als auch der seitenwandseitige Schenkel geschweißt oder vorzugsweise geklebt sein kann, um zusätzliche Aufhärtungsbereiche zu verhindern. Wesentlich dabei ist, dass die Wärmeeinflusszone der Schweißnaht 4 genügend überdeckt wird, um die Stützwirkung der Schweißnahtabdeckung gegenüber der metallurgischen Kerbe der Wärmeeinflusszone der Schweißnaht 4 optimal wirksam werden zu lassen.Fig. 1 shows a trained as a protective sheet 1 weld cover, the According to the invention, a weld seam 4 between the side wall 2 and bottom plate. 3 covers, wherein both the bottom-side leg of the mudguard 1 and the sidewall-side legs welded or preferably can be glued to to prevent additional hardening areas. It is essential that the Heat affected zone of the weld 4 is sufficiently covered to the support effect the weld seam cover opposite the metallurgical notch Heat affected zone of the weld 4 to be optimally effective.

Gemäß Fig. 2 ist ein Schutzblech 5 innen angebracht, wobei dieselben Wirkmechanismen wie bei der äußerlichen Befestigung zum Tragen kommen.2, an apron 5 is mounted inside, wherein the same Mechanisms of action as in the external attachment come into play.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Ausführung mit sowohl einem inneren Schutzblech 5 als auch einem äußeren Schutzblech 1, wobei zu einer besseren Stützwirkung und zur Vermeidung von konstruktiven Kerben die Überdeckungslänge der Schenkel innen und außen unterschiedlich sein können.Fig. 3 shows an embodiment with both an inner fender 5 and a outer fender 1, wherein to a better support effect and to avoid constructive notches the overlap length of the legs inside and outside can be different.

Fig. 4 zeigt eine bevorzugte Ausführung der Erfindung, bei der zur Steigerung der Masseneffektivität der Panzerung Zusatzpanzerungsplatten 13 im Fahrzeugboden verwendet werden. Diese Zusatzpanzerungsplatten 13 sind in Führungsschienen 14 geführt. Die Führungsschienen 14 sind mit der Seitenwand 2 verbunden. Fig. 4 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention, in which to increase the Mass effectiveness of armor Additional armor plates 13 in the vehicle floor be used. This additional armor plates 13 are in guide rails fourteenth guided. The guide rails 14 are connected to the side wall 2.

Erfindungsgemäß sind diese Führungsschienen in Bereichen der Schweißnähte 4 angebracht und durch ihre Formgebung, ihre Festigkeit und ihre Art der Befestigung an der Seitenwand 2 in analoger Ausführung wie zuvor beschrieben so ausgeführt, dass sie gleichzeitig als Schweißnahtabdeckung dienen.According to the invention, these guide rails are in regions of the welds 4 attached and by their shape, their strength and their method of attachment the side wall 2 in an analogous embodiment as described above executed so that they also serve as a weld seam cover.

Des Weiteren ist durch eine spezielle Formgebung der Panzerwanne bzw. des Bodenbleches 3 vorgesehen, die Angriffsflächen für den Detonationsdruck in jenem Bereich zu konzentrieren, der am einfachsten und effizientesten, zum Beispiel durch eine hochwirksame Zusatzpanzerung, schützbar ist. Eine mögliche Ausbildungsform ist in Fig.5 dargestellt.Furthermore, by a special shape of the armor pan or the Bottom plates 3 provided, the attack surfaces for the detonation pressure in that Focus area, the easiest and most efficient, for example through a highly effective additional armor, is protectable. One possible form of training is shown in Fig.5.

Erfindungsgemäß werden die stabilen Radaufhängungselemente 6 genutzt, um hier Streuplatten 7 zu befestigen, welche die direkte Blastwirkung der Explosion um den Radkastenbereich 8 teilweise verhindern sollen, indem sie den Explosionsblast zerstreuen. Dazu werden die Streuplatten 7 auf den Radaufhängungselementen 6 so befestigt, dass die Bewegung des Rades 9 nicht eingeschränkt wird. Zusätzlich werden eventuelle Unstetigkeiten im Wannenboden, die zur geschützten Führung von Antriebs- und Fahrwerkskomponenten erforderlich sein können, mit die Fahrzeugbodenplatte 11 überlappenden Abdeckplatten 10 geschützt. Dadurch wird der Radkasten 8 großflächig abgedeckt, um den Detonationsblast nur mehr in stark abgeschwächter Form in den verletzbaren Radkastenbereich (8) vordringen zu lassen.According to the invention, the stable wheel suspension elements 6 are used here Fixing plates 7, which the direct blast effect of the explosion to the Wheel arch area 8 should partially prevent by the explosion blast dispel. For this purpose, the scattering plates 7 on the suspension elements 6 so attached so that the movement of the wheel 9 is not limited. In addition will be any discontinuities in the bottom of the tank which are necessary for the protected guidance of propulsion and suspension components may be required with the vehicle floor panel 11 overlapping cover plates 10 protected. As a result, the wheel well 8 is a large area covered to the detonation blast only in much attenuated form in the vulnerable wheel arch area (8) to penetrate.

Dem Anteil des Detonationsdruckes, der in den besonders verletzbaren Radkastenbereich 8 eindringt, soll durch eine möglichst ungehinderte Expansion die zerstörende Wirkung entzogen werden. Bei marktüblichen Ausführungen, wie sie im rechten Teil der Fig. 5 dargestellt ist, wird der im Radkastenbereich 8 integrierte Federdom 12 untergebracht, der in der Regel als Hohlraum ausgebildet ist und damit den Detonationsdruck einfängt und voll zur Wirkung bringt.The proportion of detonation stress that is particularly vulnerable Radkastenbereich 8 penetrates, intended by a possible unhindered expansion of the destructive effect be withdrawn. In customary versions, as in the The right part of Fig. 5 is shown, which is integrated in the wheel arch area 8 Federdom housed 12, which is usually designed as a cavity and thus captures the detonation pressure and brings it to full effect.

Um das zu verhindern, wird erfindungsgemäß der Federdom 12 in Form einer nach außen offenen Struktur ausgebildet, die dem Blast eine geringst mögliche Angriffsfläche bietet und ihm auch die Möglichkeit gibt, seine Wirksamkeit durch Expansion abzubauen. Dies ist im linken Teil der Fig. 5 gezeigt. To prevent this, according to the invention, the spring dome 12 in the form of a externally open structure formed, which gives the blast a lowest possible attack surface offers and also gives him the possibility of its effectiveness through expansion dismantle. This is shown in the left part of FIG. 5.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung sind zahlreiche Abänderungen möglich. Insbesondere können die die Schweißnähte überdeckenden Schutzbleche auch angewendet werden, wenn die Radkästen keine nach außen offene Struktur aufweisen, und umgekehrt.Numerous modifications are possible within the scope of the invention. Especially the fenders covering the welds can also be applied if the wheel arches have no structure open to the outside, and vice versa.
