Definitions

  • Panzerhaubitze is in EP 0 331 980 A1 described.
  • the invention has the object of providing a built-in military ship, large-caliber gun with the features of the preamble of claim 1 so that a fully automatic transport of bullets from a bullet magazine into the area behind the weapon is possible, the arrangement should be constructed as space-saving and a rapid and smooth Munitionsfluß should be achieved.
  • a basic idea of the invention is to adopt a number of features which are known from the above-referenced howitzer, even in a gun integrated into a military ship, but to supplement it with further features and to adapt them overall so that one for the application on a ship optimized total solution is obtained.
  • the projectile magazine is placed much lower than is the case with the known Panzerhaubitze, namely below the tower basket area.
  • the projectile feeding device known Panzerhaubitze namely the pivotable about a horizontal axis ready shell, in which the projectiles are inserted from the projectile transporter and from which they are transferred directly into the loading tray of the projectile transfer arm.
  • the projectiles are rather from the projectile transporter Projectile hoist fed by which they are conveyed from the lower floor projectile magazine in the tower basket area and there introduced directly into the loading tray of the lowered Geschoßübergabearms.
  • Fig. 1 shows in a highly schematic representation of a part of the hull FR of a military ship, such as a frigate, with a ship deck D, integrated into the hull, large caliber gun GT, which is constructed with the tower and the weapon system of a howitzer howitzer, and other facilities such
  • a Artillerieraketenabschußvorraum AR and a tracking device RA for example, a Artillerieraketenabschußvorraum AR and a tracking device RA.
  • the turret GT of the gun is arranged and connected via a shock-absorbing storage L with the hull.
  • This known storage L is not closer in the following explained and reference is made to the cited references.
  • the tower GT which can be directed in elevation weapon W is arranged on the trunnion 1 in a known manner a projectile transfer arm 2 is pivotally mounted, at the free end of a charging tray 3 is arranged.
  • the arrangement is such that, in a manner not shown raised Geschoßübergabearm 2, the charging tray 3 is aligned with the Rohrselelenachse of the weapon, while in the swung-down state of the projectile transfer arm 2, as in Fig. 2 is shown, the charging tray 3 is aligned perpendicular to the bottom of the arranged below the tower GT tower basket area TK.
  • a projectile magazine 4 is arranged, in which generally provided with reference numeral 5 projectiles are arranged perpendicular to the magazine floor standing in such a way that, as Fig. 4 can be seen between the aligned in substantially radial rows projectiles 5 a passage space 4.1 is released.
  • a projectile transporter 6 is arranged, which has a at least about a vertical axis pivotable transport arm 6.1, at the end of a pivotable gripping device is arranged 6.2.
  • a projectile transporter is known per se and, for example, in EP 0 331 980 A1 described.
  • FIGS. 3 and 3 A The more accurate operation of the projectile lift 7 is the FIGS. 3 and 3 A refer to.
  • FIGS. 3 and 3 A different phases in the operation of the projectile lift 8 in conjunction with the charging tray 3 of the projectile transfer arm 2 are shown simultaneously. So the lifting plate is 7.2 in Fig. 3 in its lower position within the projectile magazine 4 denoted by 7.21, while it is designated in its upper position within the tower basket area TK 7.22.
  • the lifting plate 7.21 In the lower position of the lifting plate 7.21 is placed on this a projectile 5.1, which is conveyed by means of the projectile hoist elevator upwards and inserted into the charging tray 3 of the projectile transfer arm 2. In the upper position, in which the lifting plate is denoted by 7.22, the projectile carries the reference number 5.2.
  • the charging tray 3 is arranged in alignment with the direction of movement of the lifting plate 7.21 or 7.22.
  • the half-plate 3.1 pivots the projectile holding device from the open position ( Fig. 3 A) into the closed position ( Fig. 3 ).
  • the projectile 5.2 is supported both by the lifting plate 7.22, as well as by the half-plate 3.1 of the projectile holding device on the ground.
  • the lifting plate can now be moved back down while the projectile 5.2 is held in the charging tray 3.
  • the projectile transfer arm 2 can be pivoted about the trunnion axis 1 in the direction of 1.1 upwards into the position, not shown, behind the weapon, in which the longitudinal axis of the charging cradle 3 is aligned with the tube axis of the weapon W.
  • the feeding of the projectile 5.1 which is located in the lower position Hubteller 7.2, takes place in a conventional manner by the Projectile transporter 6 ( Fig. 4 ) grips by means of the gripping device 6.2 one of the projectiles 5 from the projectile magazine 4, it moves in the direction of the projectile hoist elevator 7 and touches the lifting plate 7.21 in the lower position.
  • amaschineladungsföder worn 8 is further provided, which extends parallel to the projectile hoist elevator 7 in the direction perpendicular to the magazine floor from the projectile magazine 4, starting in the tower basket area TK inside. Through them, propellant charges arranged in an additional propellant charge magazine arranged below the tower basket area can be conveyed into the tower basket area.
  • propellant charges may be stored in a propellant charge magazine 10 arranged on the tower GT.
  • a loading device 9 is additionally arranged, fed by means of the projectiles from the side of the projectile magazine 4, or can be discharged from it.
  • the projectile magazine 4 to be supplied bullets from an ammunition bunker, not shown, arranged on a lower level of the ship by means of a ammunition elevator 11 ( Fig. 2 ) is conveyed to the level of the bullet magazine 4. They are arranged on a carriage 11.1, which is zubewegbar on a guideway 11.2 on the projectile magazine 4.
  • the projectiles are then removed by an operator from the carriage 11.1 by means of a projectile gripper 13, which is arranged on a process device with lifting device 12 and by means of the latter in the direction of arrow P of the loading device 9, from which they are removed by means of the projectile transporter 6 and their parking spaces in the projectile magazine 4 are supplied.
  • a discharge of the projectile magazine 4 is possible in reverse order of operations.
  • the traversing device is provided with lifting device 12 with a brake lever 12.1, by which they and the projectile are held instantaneously when about the operator B releases the manually operable projectile gripper device 13 as a result of a ship movement.
