Only the projectiles are ignited, and the drum can be moved about the rotational axis using a drive. The drum and the throwing unit are in contact when in the firing position.

Description

Wurfanlagen, insbesondere Werfer, dienen zum Abschuss von Wirkkörpern bzw. Wirkmedien, wie beispielsweise Nebel-, Spreng-, Stör- und / oder Täuschkörper sowie Tränengas, Pfeffer oder dergleichen. Wurfanlagen werden in der Regel an Fahrzeugen wie Landfahrzeuge und Schiffe und an Gebäuden angebracht bzw. eingesetzt. Derartige Wurfbecher mit Wirkkörper sind in der DE 37 06 213 C2 offenbart. Magazinartige Nebelwurfanlagen sind beispielsweise in der DE 43 38 650C1 sowie der DE 100 08 198 A1 beschrieben. In der Regel sind die Wurfbecher nebeneinander oder übereinander angeordnet und besitzen nur eine geringe Richtmöglichkeit.Throwing equipment, in particular launcher, used for launching active bodies or active media, such as fog, explosive, noise and / or decoy and tear gas, pepper or the like. Throwing systems are usually mounted or used on vehicles such as land vehicles and ships and on buildings. Such litter cups with active body are in the DE 37 06 213 C2 disclosed. Magazine-like Nebelwurfanlagen are for example in the DE 43 38 650 C1 as well as the DE 100 08 198 A1 described. In general, the throwing cups are arranged side by side or one above the other and have only a small straightening possibility.

In der DE 101 11 714 C1 wird erwähnt, dass derartige Effektmunition meistens aus Kurzlaufwaffen bzw. aus kurzen Trommelmagazinen verschossen wird, wobei ausgeführt wird, dass in diesen Fällen das Magazin dann üblicherweise durch eine Scheibe abgedeckt ist. Weitere Ausführungen über die Trommel selbst werden nicht gemacht.In the DE 101 11 714 C1 It is mentioned that such effect ammunition is usually fired from short-barreled weapons or from short drum magazines, wherein it is stated that in these cases the magazine is then usually covered by a disk. Further details about the drum itself are not made.

Hier greift die Erfindung die Aufgabe auf, eine Wurfanlage aufzuzeigen, die bevorzugt eine Richtmöglichkeit in wenigstens eine Richtachse ermöglicht.Here, the invention takes on the task to show a litter, which preferably allows a straightening possibility in at least one straightening axis.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are contained in the subclaims.

Der Erfindung liegt die Idee zugrunde, die Abschussrohre für die Wurfkörper kreisförmig um eine Drehachse anzuordnen. Hieraus ergibt sich eine Abschusstrommel, die drehbar es ermöglicht, die bzw. den Wurfkörper aus einer bestimmten Position abzufeuern. Dabei kann die Abschussrichtung starr bestimmt oder aber durch Richten der Trommel eingestellt werden. D.h., der Werfer weist in einer bevorzugten Ausführung eine Richtbarkeit zumindest in einer Richtachse auf. In Weiterführung der Erfindung ist ein Richten in zwei bis drei Achsen vorgesehen.The invention is based on the idea of arranging the launching tubes for the projectiles in a circle around an axis of rotation. This results in a Abschusstrommel that rotatably makes it possible to fire the or the projectile from a certain position. In this case, the firing direction can be determined rigidly or adjusted by straightening the drum. That is, in a preferred embodiment, the thrower has a straightening at least in a straightening axis. In continuation of the invention, a straightening in two to three axes is provided.

Der Abschuss erfolgt idealer Weise aus dem Abschussrohr, dessen Achse sowohl von der Richtachse für die Elevation als auch von der Richtachse für Azimut geschnitten wird. Hierdurch werden beim Abschuss keine Drehmomente um die Richtachse erzeugt. Durch die momentfreie Ausführung können beispielsweise Bremsen und Kupplungen an den Antrieben der Richtachse oder verstellbare Hebelabstützungen entfallen. Des Weiteren können der / die Richtantriebe klein dimensioniert werden. Die Steuerung der Wurfanlage kann vereinfacht werden. Die Werferbauteile können symmetrisch und klein ausgeführt werden.The launching is ideally done from the launch tube whose axis is cut from both the elevation directional axis and the azimuth directional axis. As a result, no torques are generated around the straightening during firing. By the torque-free design can account for example brakes and clutches on the drives of the directional axis or adjustable lever supports. Furthermore, the straightening drives can be made small. The control of the throwing machine can be simplified. The launcher components can be made symmetrical and small.

In Weiterführung der Lösung, wird zur Erhöhung der Sicherheit nur der in Abfeuerposition befindliche Wirkkörper zumindest elektrisch kontaktiert. So wird sichergestellt, dass nur in der vorgegebenen Magazinstellung abgefeuert werden kann. Bei einer Zwischenstellung der Trommel besitzt der Wurfkörper keinen Kontakt zur Abfeuerung. Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Sicherheit ist vorgesehen, dass die Trommel in der Schussstellung mechanisch verriegelt wird, beispielsweise mittels Bolzen.In continuation of the solution, only the active body located in firing position is contacted at least electrically to increase safety. This ensures that it can only be fired in the specified magazine position. In an intermediate position of the drum of the throwing body has no contact for firing. To further increase the security is provided that the drum is mechanically locked in the firing position, for example by means of bolts.

Bei einer Adaption weiterer Bewegungsachsen (rotatorisch, translatorisch) sind unterschiedliche Ausführungen der Werferanlage erreichbar. So kann diese aus einer verdeckten Parkposition in die Schussposition bewegt werden. Dieses Signaturverhalten ist bei vielen Fahrzeugen erwünscht.In an adaptation of other axes of motion (rotational, translational) different versions of the launcher can be achieved. So this can be moved from a hidden parking position in the firing position. This signature behavior is desirable in many vehicles.

Auch kann die Werfertrommel als Wechselmagazin ausgeführt sein. Dies bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass vollständig aufmunitionierte Magazine gewechselt werden können. Ein Trommel- / Magazinantrieb ermöglicht die Drehung in eine Indexstellung zum Laden / Entladen des Werfers. Bevorzugt sind zur Schaffung einer hohen Sicherheit in dieser Position die Kontakte zur Abfeuerung getrennt.Also, the Werfertrommel can be designed as a removable magazine. This has the advantage that completely ammunitionierte magazines can be changed. A drum / magazine drive allows rotation to an index position for loading / unloading the launcher. Preferably, the contacts for firing are separated to create a high level of security in this position.

Durch das Verschießen in nur einer Position kann ein bauraumkleiner Werfer geschaffen werden, der Störkanten, Abschattungen etc. durch die Trägerfahrzeugkontur oder dergleichen überschießen kann. Die Integration des Werfers am Trägerfahrzeug ist dadurch nicht örtlich gebunden. Des Weiteren hat das Verschießen in nur einer Position den Vorteil, dass die Kraft- und Momenteinleitung in das Trägerfahrzeug optimiert werden kann.By shooting in only one position, a small space launcher can be created, the interference edges, shadowing, etc. can overshoot by the carrier vehicle contour or the like. The integration of the launcher on the carrier vehicle is thus not locally bound. Furthermore, the firing in only one position has the advantage that the introduction of force and torque into the carrier vehicle can be optimized.

Der Werfer kann des Weiteren an Gebäuden etc. Angebracht werden.The launcher can also be attached to buildings etc.

Um Rückstosskräfte bei Bedarf verringern zu können, kann in Weiterführung der Erfindung an der Abschussposition ein Brems- und Rückstellsystem eingebunden werden. Dies ermöglicht die Nutzung an leichten Trägerfahrzeugen, beispielsweise die Nutzung von Geländewagen, Motorräder, Helikopter, Leichtflugzeuge und dergleichen sowie beispielsweise als mobile, tragbare Systeme.In order to be able to reduce recoil forces when needed, a brake and reset system can be integrated in the launching position in continuation of the invention. This allows the use of light carrier vehicles, such as the use of SUVs, motorcycles, helicopters, light aircraft and the like and, for example, as a mobile, portable systems.

Anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles mit Zeichnung soll die Erfindung näher erläutert werden.Reference to an embodiment with drawing, the invention will be explained in more detail.

Um den jeweiligen Wurfkörper 3 in die Abschussposition zu bringen, wird die Trommel 4 um ihre Achse D verdreht. In der aufgezeigten Darstellung befindet sich der Wurfkörper 31 in der Abschussposition, d,h., aus dem Abschussrohr 2, dessen Achse sowohl von der Richtachse R2 für die Elevation E als auch von der Richtachse R1 für Azimut A geschnitten wird. Ist dieser Wurfkörper 31 gezündet worden, erfolgt eine weitere Verstellung der Trommel 4, bis ein weiterer Wurfkörper 3 in der Abschussposition liegt. Nach Verschuss aller in den Abschussrohren 2 befindlichen Wurfkörper 3 kann das Magazin 4 gewechselt werden. Für das Richten der Abschussrohre 2 wird die Trommel 4 in ihrer Gesamtheit in Azimut und / oder Elevation verstellt. Wird eine Sicherheitsstellung erwünscht, wird die Trommel 4 derart verstellt, dass kein Wurfkörper 3 in Kontakt gelangt (Kontakte 10 und 11 voneinander auch elektrisch getrennt).In order to bring the respective projecting body 3 in the firing position, the drum 4 is rotated about its axis D. In the illustration shown, the throwing body 3 1 is in the firing position, d, h., From the launch tube 2, whose axis is cut both from the straightening axis R 2 for the elevation E and from the straightening axis R 1 for azimuth A. If this projectile has been ignited 3 1 , there is a further adjustment of the drum 4 until another projectile 3 is in the launching position. After firing all located in the launch tubes 2 throwing body 3, the magazine 4 can be changed. For straightening the discharge tubes 2, the drum 4 is adjusted in its entirety in azimuth and / or elevation. If a safety position is desired, the drum 4 is adjusted so that no throwing body 3 comes into contact (contacts 10 and 11 also separated from each other electrically).

Die Kontakte 10, 11 (Fig. 3, 3a) dienen zur Spannungsversorgung der Wurfanlage 1 sowie zur Übertragung des Abfeuersignals. Dabei wird gewährleistet, dass in der Abschussposition nur der sich in dieser Position befindliche Wurfkörper 3 gezündet wird.
