Definitions

  • the present invention emerges from the technological field of the integration of a protection system such as an opening roof with different functions or a hood or a retractable dome arranged on a rotating turret of any armored vehicle.
  • a protection system such as an opening roof with different functions or a hood or a retractable dome arranged on a rotating turret of any armored vehicle.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to a retractable protection system in the form of a dome, with a view to replacing a hatch or hatch which is a generally pivoting panel and intended to open and close an opening made in the roof of a turret.
  • the document FR 2 936 305 B1 discloses a cupola rotatably mounted on a platform capable of being a vehicle and intended to support a weapon system such as a grenade launcher.
  • the cupola is mounted in a retractable manner and comprises manual actuation means making it possible to deploy it above the platform and bring it into the firing position.
  • the cupola is equipped with a protective cover of the weapon system closing a box, the latter located under the platform.
  • WO 2014/127769 A1 discloses an armored vehicle with a vehicle cabin on which is arranged a roof hood, the roof hood being pivotally arranged and in translation with respect to the vehicle cabin.
  • the pivoting movement takes place relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle and the translational movement can take place along an external contour of the bodywork with, for example, a vertical guide making it possible to fold the roof hood downwards. along the vehicle cabin, in a transport position.
  • the document EP 1 361 409 A2 discloses an armored vehicle comprising a hatch arranged at the top of the vehicle and articulated at its rear edge on the vehicle body so as to be able to pivot between a closed position (I) covering a manhole in the vehicle body and a position open (II), in which the door allows passage in and out of the vehicle through the manhole, said hatch being provided with observation means allowing limited visibility outside the vehicle, when the hatch of access is in the closed position (I) and comprising a windshield fitted with a front window and side windows hinged on either side of the front window so as to be able to pivot relative to the front window, so that the windshield can be arranged in a stowed position (A) or in an operational position (B), in which stowage position (A) the side windows are turned on the front window while, in the operational position (B), the front window and side windows extend into the gap between the body and the access hatch in a partially open position (III), providing better visibility out of the vehicle than the limited visibility obtained by the
  • the document FROM 736,470 discloses an armored vehicle provided with viewing slots.
  • the observation slot of this vehicle has the particularity of being a continuous annular slot, and adjustable in height.
  • the height of the slot is adjusted by movement of the vehicle hood, delimiting the slot in the turret. Either the entire hood can be adjusted vertically, so that a Annular slot extending at the same height all the way around is created or only part of the cover, so that a partial annular slot is created.
  • the document FR 2,563,901 relates to an armored hatch panel intended to cover an observation opening formed at the top of a combat vehicle (and preferably of a turret), so that it protects a member of the crew of the vehicle.
  • This hatch cover allows a practically unlimited direct view all around the surrounding environment, in its open position, but nevertheless provides a degree of protection for the crew members, in this position. More precisely, in the open position, the panel covers the opening forming the hatch so that a small space is formed between the lower part of the panel and the margin of the upper part of the vehicle so that a direct view is possible. possible over the entire periphery, while, in the closed position, the panel constitutes a protection constituting an additional shielding.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art.
  • the present invention aims to achieve an armored vehicle turret with a retractable or retractable protection system, making it possible to protect a soldier either in a position of sniping in part. outside the turret, either in a position of visual observation in the open air, but protected, unimpeded, without the need for hatches or periscopes.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a retractable protection system which also serves as a hatch for opening and closing an opening provided in the roof of the turret making it possible to put the gunner in position using a retractable ballistic system and possibly miniaturized, secure and instantly.
  • the retractable system according to the present invention must therefore have a function of access to the opening provided in the turret as well as a function of protecting the user.
  • the present invention relates to a tank turret comprising a retractable protection system in the form of an armored dome, integrated into said turret, having any dome shape, generally with a profile and a (semi) circular or polygonal plane.
  • An actuation system allows the dome to be lifted to allow the shooter to get into position.
  • a support such as a micro-perforated band which protects the area below the weapon.
  • the protective dome has above all a shield function.
  • the turret 1 comprises a protection system in the form of a retractable roof 3 making it possible to conceal an opening 5, which must allow the passage of soldiers, to enter the turret or to evacuate it, and also allows a soldier to get into a sniping position with a small weapon or visual observation, with the naked eye or with glasses.
  • the retractable protection system 3 can be moved between four different positions, as shown in the figures. figures 1 to 4 .
  • the means for lifting the dome are not shown.
  • the system 3 In a first position, the system 3 completely closes the opening 5 so as to create a tight closure of the turret, as shown in figure 1 .
  • the protective dome with its structure is in its retracted state, and is then partly hidden in the passenger compartment. The shooter and his weapon are locked inside the turret and are not visible from the outside.
  • the protection system 3 In a second position, which is also a first intermediate opening position, the protection system 3 is slightly deployed and raised relative to the rest of the turret, which allows the user to put himself in an observation position or surveillance, with the naked eye or with binoculars ( Figure 2 ).
  • the dome 3 which serves as a shield and is advantageously protected laterally at the level of the normally open part by the installation of protective plates allowing observation, as by example of sheets having loopholes 4, preferably (micro) perforated sheets providing protection against projectiles of different calibers.
  • a third position which is also a second intermediate opening position
  • the protection system 3 is deployed even further, which makes it possible to provide a lateral opening above the protection plates 4 ( Figure 3 ).
  • This position advantageously allows the sniper / sniper to operate with a light weapon, such as a pistol, rifle or machine gun, in asymmetric engagement situations.
  • the shooter can rotate on itself, 360 ° and remain protected from possible enemy fire.
  • the protective loopholes 4 can be lowered, for example by means of slides.
  • perforated protective sheets 4 A particular embodiment of the perforated protective sheets 4 is shown in the figures 5 and 6 .
  • the manner of making the loopholes (perforations) is known per se to those skilled in the art.
  • the protection system 3 is completely open, for example, but without this being limiting in the context of the present invention, by pivoting upward and forward, allowing the user to stay upright in the turret and with the protection system as a shield as shown in figure 3 .
  • the shooter and the other members of the crew can also evacuate the turret while being protected on one side by the dome 3 which is raised to the maximum position.
  • the retractable system 3 therefore has a function of closing / opening the opening 5 provided in the turret, such as a hatch, as well as a function of protecting users.
  • the dome also provides environmental protection, for example by protecting people from extreme temperatures (for example in the desert) by cutting off incident radiation.
  • the retractable protection system 3 can also, for example, discover the opening 5 by being pivoted either towards the front side or towards the rear side of the turret, depending on the situation.
  • the protection system according to the invention can be placed in four positions, allowing on the one hand the protection of the user when he is placed in a shooting or observation situation, and on the other hand to open and close access to the turret.
  • the turret When the system is fully open as shown in figure 4 , the turret can be evacuated while protecting the crew thanks to the cupola functioning as a shield. On the other hand, this arrangement allows the crew to have easy access to the first floor of a building by leaving the top of the turret, given that the roof of the latter is generally located at a certain height. Top evacuation can in fact be an advantage in certain situations.
  • Another advantage of the invention is to be able to use the armored vehicle in “peace keeping” mode (visible crew), by keeping the dome in the fourth position (fully deployed) or even by removing the armored dome.
