Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mortar according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a mortar of the above-mentioned type is known from DE-OS 22 60 003, which relates to a mortar designed as a rear loader on a light carrier vehicle.
  • the mortar is mounted on a slewing ring and provided with a ring spring as a return prefitting device, which encompasses its tube over a predetermined length.
  • the invention is based on the object initially overall to provide a mortar which n annten genus that is to be operated from one offered by a carrier vehicle cover located, characterized in mainly stressed part, namely the tube by simplicity and also in the MOUNTINGS Sufficient firepower is guaranteed on a comparatively light carrier vehicle.
  • a carrier vehicle 10 with wheels has a floor 14, outer walls 16 and 18 and a cover 22 and 24, as may be considered normal for armored vehicles.
  • An interior 26 is set up for crew and ammunition in a manner not shown.
  • the cover 22 is kinked at 28 and merges from an apron 29 into the part 24, which is arranged at the level of an upper edge of the outer wall 16 in the rear region 11 of the carrier vehicle 10, which is not specified in more detail.
  • a bearing opening 32 provided between 24 and 26 has a rotating ring 34 for interacting with a rotating platform 62. In the rotating platform 62, a mortar 36 is mounted in a manner not shown, using shield pins 46 and a cradle roller 44.
  • the height and side straightening devices 50 which are each provided with a handwheel that is not described in more detail, are arranged.
  • An articulated ball 58 is provided on the roller cradle 44 as a bearing for a loading manipulator 52, which is designed in the manner of a rocker. It has two arms, only one of which, 60, is shown. They unite at one end to form a double socket (not shown) for the joint ball 58 and carry a projectile receptacle 54 at their other end.
  • the loading manipulator 52 is deflected such that it is inclined with the projectile receptacle 54 in a depression 30 of the cover 24 lies below the apron 29.
  • a charging gear 56 which is only indicated, allows the loading manipulator 52 to be moved from the position shown in the direction of an arrow L 1 into each of the respective positions of the tube 38 adapted ! Position in which the axis of the projectile receptacle 54 is aligned with the tube core axis A. This advantageously ensures that the mortar 36 can be operated in part from the cover provided in the interior 26.
  • the loading manipulator 52 is pivoted in the direction of an arrow L 2 into the position shown for loading.
  • a projectile is inserted from the interior 26 through the loading opening 90 into the projectile receptacle 54 and fixed there by means of a releasable clamping device. Then the loading manipulator 52 is pivoted in the direction of the arrow L 2 until the axis of the projectile receptacle 54 is aligned with the tube core axis A. By loosening the clamping device, the projectile falls into the tube 38 of the mortar 36 released, whereupon the loading manipulator 52 is immediately pivoted again in the direction of the arrow L 2 in order not to obstruct the projectile leaving the mouth 40 of the tube 38. During the weft development, the tube 38 runs back in the direction of an arrow R.
  • a return prefitting device 64 becomes effective, as is shown in FIG. 3 and will be described below. It allows a long return path to be mastered, so that the forces introduced into the carrier vehicle 10 are kept within realistic limits. In this way, great firepower can be guaranteed in terms of range and harmful effects - both of which are essentially dependent on the tube caliber and the size of the cargo.
  • the embodiment of Figure 2 differs from that described above mainly by the type of the loading manipulator 63 and thus the loading of the mortar 36.
  • the loading manipulator 53 has a linkage 61 which is arranged on the tube 38 such that a projectile receptacle 55 in the direction of Arrows V and R on it can be moved up and down.
  • a passage opening is provided in the rotating platform 62.
  • the linkage 61 follows each directional movement of the tube 38, its lower end, not specified, always remaining in the interior 26.
  • a floor 88 is detachably fixed in the floor receptacle 55 in a lower loading position.
  • the projectile receptacle 55 moves upward in the direction of arrow V and is pivoted over the mouth 40 of the pipe 38 so that it is aligned with the pipe core axis A.
  • the projectile 88 is released to fall into the pipe 38 , whereupon the projectile receptacle 55 is immediately pivoted back again so as not to obstruct the projectile 88 emerging from the mouth 40.
  • the return prefitting device 64 is described below with reference to FIG. 3.
  • the latter is designed in the area of the cradle roller 44 as a hydraulic part 64 with a cylinder 70 filled with hydraulic oil.
  • the cylinder 70 is provided with a seal 76 on the upper side and with a seal 78 on the lower side.
  • a jacket 74 placed around the tube 68 has an upper and a lower piston surface on an upper flange 72.
  • a throttle valve, not shown, is arranged in the flange 72.
  • the jacket 74 is delimited by a collar designed as a spring abutment 86 for a compression spring 84.
  • the spring 84 engages around the tube 38 below the cylinder 70 and belongs to a mechanical part 80 of the return prefitting device 64.
  • the mechanical part 80 is provided with a housing 66 which is connected on the upper side to the cradle roller 44 and on the underside a lower spring abutment 86 for the spring 84 wearing.
  • the return prefetching device 64 is the advantageous transfer of the principle which has been tried and tested in rear-loading barrel weapons, for example cannons, to use with a mortar. Due to the combination of a mechanical part with a hydraulic part, as represented by the parts 80 and 68, the return prefitting device 64 can be used to control large return paths, as in the case of the weapons mentioned, and thus disturbing force peaks occurring at the shield shields avoid. It can be seen from this that the invention opens up large-caliber high-firearms to the mounting on comparatively light carrier vehicles.
  • a support 20 for example in a telescopic design, can be arranged between the carrier vehicle 10 and a floor surface 100. Because of the good damping achieved by the return prefitting device according to the invention, a mounting using the principle of the cardanic suspension can also be realized. The consequent reduction of a common tower to a rotating platform, in connection with the good damping, also allows external mounting, whereby there is no need for a base plate for the direct introduction of the recoil forces into the ground.
  • the muzzle-loading mortar according to the invention leaves an emergency without restriction of the firepower Manual operation, which, in any case for a limited time, justifies a short-term and only partial limitation of the protection in some cases. Since in the mortar according to the invention all firings known for muzzle loaders for the upper angle group can be used and these are not considered essential to the invention in the given context, it is not possible to go into this in detail.
