Description
MOUNTING APPARATUS FOR A MODULAR SMOKE GRENADE Pearl Cohen Zedek Latzer P-75074-IL Diehl BGT Defence GmbH & Co. KG, Alte NuBdorfer Strafle 13, 88662 Uberlingen Mounting apparatus for a modular smoke grenade The invention relates to a mounting apparatus for a modular smoke grenade, and to a modular smoke grenade having a mounting apparatus such as this.
DE 10 2006 008 309 Al discloses a smoke grenade having a pyrotechnic warhead for production of smoke which emits in the infrared range and is opaque in the visual range. The pyrotechnic warhead is formed by a smoke body of modular design, which has two different active bodies, with one active body resulting in smoke building up quickly, and with the other active body having a long burning time, thus achieving a rapid build up of smoke together with a long burning duration.
Smoke grenades such as these are intended to form a smoke curtain, in order in this way to protect vehicles or troops against discovery, detection and target tracking. Normally, smoke grenades are carried on an army vehicle in a plurality of launcher tubes and are launched when required by firing a propellant charge, on a flight path which is designed by the angular setting of the launcher tube. After leaving the launcher tube, the pyrotechnic warhead of the smoke 'grenade is broke up and fired by initiation of the break-up charge.
Conventional smoke grenades are generally designed for respectively very specific smoke-production scenarios, for example rapid smoke formation, long-lasting smoke formation, smoke formation with emission in the infrared range, etc. These different smoke-production scenarios require the use of different smoke grenades, whose design and configuration differ from one another. Furthermore, when a smoke grenade is launched, there are in general a plurality of different smoke launching systems, as a result of which compatibility problems often occur between a smoke grenade to be fired and the smoke launching system to be used.
The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a capability to configure smoke grenades for widely differing smoke-production scenarios, which are at the same time also still compatible with different smoke grenade launching systems.
The present object is achieved by a mounting apparatus for a modular smoke grenade according to Claim 1, and by a modular smoke grenade having a mounting apparatus such as this. Advantageous embodiments of the present invention are specified in the dependent claims.
A mounting device for a modular smoke grenade is provided in particular for achieving the above object, wherein the mounting apparatus comprises a housing for accommodation of an active smoke compound, and wherein, in addition to at least one wall for surrounding the active smoke compound, the housing has a further wall for attachment of a base part, which is matched to a smoke grenade launching device and/or to the active smoke compound. This allows the smoke grenade to be configured like a kit, such that it can not only contain different active smoke chargers but can also easily be matched to different smoke grenade, launching devices on widely differing vehicles. In this case, any combination of the active compound and calibre of the smoke grenade launching device {smoke launching system) is possible.
Preferably, the at least one wall comprises a wall for surrounding the active smoke compound, which wall is in the form of a cylindrical casing and has a further wall added to it for attachment of the base part to form a housing in the form of a cup. In this case, for attachment of the base part, the further wall preferably has an attachment device for reversible attachment of the base part. This advantageously allows widely differing base parts to be screwed to the housing. For example, these base parts may contain the required connections for firing the firing pellet. However, it is also possible to accommodate at least parts of the propellant charge of the smoke grenade in the base parts. Furthermore, the base parts can be used for adaptation of the smoke grenade to different calibres of different smoke grenade launching devices, by variation of their diameter.
In particular, the attachment device may comprise a screw thread or a plug connector. The attachment device is preferably designed to ensure ignition coupling between the base part and the active smoke compound when the base part is attached and the active smoke compound is accommodated in the housing.
In addition to the already described embodiment of the mounting apparatus according to the invention, the present invention also covers a modular smoke grenade having a mounting apparatus such as this. Ιη· this case, the modular smoke grenade comprises an active smoke compound, which is accommodated in the housing,, and a base part, which is attached to the further wall. Widely different types of active smoke compounds can be integrated in the' housing, .for example two-stage active smoke compounds, active smoke compounds which are distributed by detonation, and active smoke compounds with a smaller physical height.
Preferably, on its side facing the further wall, the active smoke compound has a firing pellet, whose firing initiates activation of the active smoke compound.
It is also advantageous if at its coupling point to the attachment device, the base part is designed to ensure an electrical connection of firing initiation and the firing pellet. This allows a functional coupling to be produced between the base part and the active smoke compound by means of the mounting apparatus. Preferably, the base part is designed to ensure a secure mechanical connection between the smoke grenade and the smoke grenade launching device. This makes it possible to achieve a particularly effective acceleration effect for the smoke grenade.
According to a further embodiment to the present invention, when an active smoke compound is used whose height is less than the height of the housing, an inert filling piece is also introduced into the housing, in order to compensate for the height difference. This makes it possible to ensure that the active smoke compound is not overloaded when severe acceleration forces occur. When an active smoke compound of greater height is required, it is advantageous to be able to match the height of the wall for surrounding the active smoke compound to the height of the active smoke compound.
The concept of the present invention is illustrated in the form of a drawing in the attached figure.
In the centre, the figure shows the mounting apparatus for a modular smoke grenade. The mounting apparatus has ■ a housing 1 for accommodation of an active smoke compound 10.1, 10.2. The housing 1 comprises a wall la for surrounding the active smoke compound 10.1, 10.2, as well as a further wall lb for attachment of a base part 20.1, 20.2, which is matched to a smoke grenade launching device and/or to the active smoke compound 10.1, 10.2.
The wall la for surrounding the active smoke compound 10.1, 10.2 is in the form of a cylindrical casing, and has a further wall lb added to it, for attachment of the base part 20.1, 20.2 to a housing 1 in the form of a cup. The further wall lb has an attachment device 2 for reversible attachment of the base part 20.1, 20.2. The two arrows in the upper part of the figure indicate that different active smoke compounds 10.1, 10.2 can be introduced into the housing 1 in the form of a cup. The two arrows in the lower part of the figure analogously indicate the fact that different base parts 20.1, 20.2, with their respective coupling point 21 to the housing 1, can be attached to the attachment device 2. In this case, the coupling point 21 of the base parts 20.1, 20.2 to the attachment device 2 is designed to ensure an electrical connection from firing initiation and the firing pellet 11 of the respective active smoke compound 10.1, 10.2.
The modular smoke grenade according to the invention is therefore designed like a kit, such that it can not only accommodate different active smoke compounds 10.1, 10.2, but can also easily be matched to different smoke grenade launching devices on different vehicles. In this case, any combination of active compound and calibre of the smoke grenade launching device is possible. The advantage of the present invention in this case is the capability to fill the mounting apparatus easily with different active smoke compounds 10.1, 10.2, and the simple adaptation of different base ' parts 20.1, 20.2, depending on the vehicle requirement and the smoke grenade launching device. This results in a kit system which can be matched to different requirements.
