Definitions
- the invention relates to a land mine, in particular for anti-tank defense, which is provided with at least one explosive charge and one detonator.
- the invention has for its object to provide a land mine that makes clearing a mine field practically impossible for the opponent, even if he knows the type of mine used exactly.
- the land mine according to the invention is characterized in that, regardless of the number of explosive charges, at least two detonators are provided, each of which is effective for all explosive charges on its own, and that the detonators operate according to different ignition systems and can be activated independently of one another.
- the landmines designed according to the invention not only have the same appearance, but they are also all completely identical. When laying these mines, only one ignition system is unlocked, the procedure being irregular and mines being randomly installed next to one another, in which different ignition systems are activated. The opponent can therefore neither see from the construction of the mine nor from its appearance how it can be defused or a minefield built from such mines.
- At least one mechanically or pneumatically actuated pressure igniter and one articulated fuse as well as a hollow charge and a blow charge are provided.
- the shaped charge has an armor-piercing effect at a certain distance above its point of installation, which is approximately between half a meter and one meter. It therefore acts on the underside of a tank traveling over it and is expediently triggered by the articulated fuse.
- the impact charge on the other hand, which acts in the immediate vicinity of its installation site, is aimed at destroying the tank chains or the wheels of vehicles rolling over them.
- the pressure igniter is therefore provided for triggering it, although it can also be triggered by the articulated fuse.
- Such a land mine according to the invention is characterized by a particularly wide range of action, so that mine fields can be built with great effectiveness from such mines, which can practically not be eliminated by the opponent.
- a further embodiment of the land mine according to the invention consists in that, in addition to other detonators, at least one side ignition channel opening on the outside of the mine is provided, into which an explosive capsule that can be ignited electrically or electronically, at most remotely, can be inserted.
- the effectiveness of a mine according to the invention is thereby increased built mine lock and the security against removal of the same by the opponent is further increased.
- the miners can be triggered electrically by detonators inserted in the side ignition channel of individual mines, for example by ignition signals supplied from a distance via lines, by induction when an enemy vehicle is approaching or also with the aid of a provided radio control.
- FIG. 1 shows a top view of the land mine according to the invention with the housing cover lifted off
- FIG. 2 shows a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1
- FIG. 3 shows a further section along the section line III shown in FIGS. III.
- the land mine shown has a rectangular housing 1, which is composed of a base plate 2 and a cover 3, as can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 3.
- Two explosive charges are accommodated in the housing 1, e.g. a so-called hollow charge 4 in a chamber located in the center of the housing 1, which is closed at the top by a funnel-shaped boundary wall 5.
- This hollow charge 4 has an armor-piercing effect and achieves its greatest penetration force if there is a distance of approximately 50 to 70 cm between the mine and the armor plate to be penetrated.
- An annular chamber is provided concentrically around the shaped charge 4, in which there is a so-called blow charge 6, which acts primarily on the chain of an armored vehicle.
- the priming charge 7 there is still a third, smaller charge, the priming charge 7, the detonators 8 are assigned and which causes a reliable ignition of the explosive charges 4 and 6.
- the two charges 4 and 6 are connected to one another by openings 9 in the partition between the chambers containing them.
- detonators 8 are independent of one another and each assigned to a different ignition system. There are therefore four detonators that are independent of each other, e.g. a pressure igniter 10, a kink igniter 11, a relief igniter 12 and a side ignition channel 13, in which e.g. an detonator detonated electrically, electronically, by vibration or by changing the magnetic field or the induction field can be used.-Each detonator is equipped with a safety device by which it can be secured or unlocked.
- the igniter 10 is designed as a pneumatic igniter and, according to FIG. 2, has a firing pin 14, which is held in its rest position by a spring-loaded ball 15 which engages in a locking groove of the firing pin 14.
- the firing pin 14 is actuated pneumatically and is displaceable in a cylinder 16 which has four triggers via lines 17.
- ser 18 is connected, which are arranged according to FIG. 1 in the corners of the housing 1. From Fig. 2 it can be seen that each trigger 18 has a pressure stamp 19 which, when loaded, presses a gas cartridge 20 against a mandrel 21 which opens the gas seal of the cartridge 20. To prevent false triggering with small pressure loads, every pressure stamp is 19 secured by shear pins 22.
- the safety cylinder 24 prevents the firing pin 14 from striking the primer 23. Only after the locking cylinder 24 has been rotated by 90 ° can the firing pin 14 reach the primer 23 through the bore 25 in the locking cylinder 24.
- the shaft 26 is provided with a predetermined breaking point 28, after which the ignition system can no longer be secured by means of the hand lever 27. Securing is then only possible by using a special key.
- the kink igniter 11 can be seen in FIG. 3.
- a rod 29 is provided which projects upwards over the cover 3 of the housing 1 and is inserted into a hemispherical joint piece 30. This works when it is wasted kung on a pressure piece 31 and presses it against the force of a spring 32 down.
- a trigger pin 33 is connected to the pressure piece 31. This interacts with holding brackets 34 which are pressed against one another by springs (not shown) and between which a conical holding head 36 connected to the firing pin 35 can be anchored.
- the firing pin 35 is tensioned with the aid of a securing shaft 37, upon rotation of which a tensioning finger 38 prestresses the firing pin 35 against the force of its spring 39 and the conical holding head 36 engages between the two holding brackets 34.
- An additional securing finger 40 on the securing shaft 37 prevents the firing pin 35 from reaching the primer 23 of the associated detonator capsule 8 when it is unintentionally released during tensioning. Only after the firing pin 35 has been securely anchored in the tensioned position is the securing finger 40 pivoted out of the range of motion of the firing pin, whereupon the articulated fuse 11 is unlocked.
- the relief igniter 12 which can also be seen in FIG. 3, has a trigger plate 41 as a trigger element, which is slidably mounted in the plane of the base plate 2 of the housing 1 transversely to the plate plane.
- a spring loads the release plate 41 to the outside.
- a trigger pin also not shown, is fastened to the trigger plate 41, into which a locking pin 42 engages, which is anchored to the side of the cover 3 of the housing 1 and can be pulled off to unlock the relief igniter 12. Once the split pin 42 is removed the release plate 41 is held against the force of the spring loading it outward only by the dead weight of the mine in the plane of the base plate 2.
- the trigger pin anchors the firing pin, which is triggered and detonates the associated detonator 8 via a primer, as soon as the mine is lifted and the trigger plate 41 is pressed out of the base plate 2 by its spring.
- the side ignition channel 13 forming the fourth ignition system can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2.
- An expediently electrically ignitable device which ignites the detonator capsule 8 can be inserted into this side ignition channel 13 through an optionally closable opening 43 in the side wall of the cover 3 of the housing 1. It is also possible to lead 43 ignition wires through the opening, which enable the mine to be ignited from a distance.
- a radio ignition or an ignition by changes in the magnetic field or the induction field and by vibrations in the ground can also be used within the scope of the invention.
- minefields When laying the described land mine in a mine field, only a part of the ignition systems is activated for each mine.
- the minefield then consists of mines that look the same and have the same structure, but which respond to various external influences or can be detonated from a distance. It is therefore practically not possible for an opponent to defuse the minefield with reasonable effort, even if he knows the design of the mines used. If the land mine according to the invention with two or more explosives provided with different effects, for example with a hollow charge and a blow charge, minefields can be built from it that are practically impossible to overcome even by well-equipped opponents.
