20130161927 | DEVICE FOR DAMPING THE VIBRATIONS IN A CRAWLER OR TRACKED VEHICLE - A device for damping vibrations acting on a tracked vehicle is provided, which has a front and rear track roller. Torsion springs are mounted along a vehicle pan. Alternatively, the torsion springs can be subdivided into smaller torsion springs. For the immediate track rollers, a further device is provided in which the long torsion springs which hitherto absorbed the torsion are divided into a plurality of smaller torsion springs and mounted not transversely with respect to the vehicle pan, but in a direction of travel with respect thereto. The torsion springs are functionally connected to one another via drive and/or transmission elements, and are accommodated outside an interior space. In this way, no further installation space is required transversely with respect to and below the vehicle pan, at most in the side region or within a small recess in the pan, a so-called pan niche. | 06-27-2013 |
20130087957 | DEVICE FOR DAMPING THE VIBRATIONS IN A CRAWLER OR TRACKED VEHICLE - A device for damping vibrations acting upon a track vehicle is provided. Long torsion bar springs which so far have been used to absorb torsion are subdivided into a plurality of small torsion bar springs. The torsion bar springs are operationally interconnected via drive or transmission elements and accommodated outside the interior, thereby removing the need for installation space for the damping device at a right angle to and below the vehicle chassis, and reducing it to the lateral zone or inside a minor recess in the chassis, a so-called chassis recess. | 04-11-2013 |
20120024141 | WEAPON SYSTEM WITH A CARRIER VEHICLE AND A PREFERABLY VEHICLE DEPENDENT MORTAR - A weapon system includes a carrier vehicle and a vehicle dependent mortar, wherein the carrier vehicle has a crew space and a weaponry space to house the mortar, and the mortar is charged in an index position with mortar grenades, with several sheddable propellant modules on the tail shaft thereof. The weapon system avoids manual loading of the mortar with mortar grenades because an automatic loader is arranged in a weapon space separated from the crew space by a separating wall. The loader transports the mortar grenade from a magazine in the weapon space into the index position of the barrel of the mortar and axially inserts it into the mouth of the barrel, and an automatic shedding device is arranged in the weapon space to automatically remove unnecessary propellant modules from the mortar grenade after fixing target parameters and before insertion of the mortar grenade into the barrel. | 02-02-2012 |

20090242697 | VEHICLE WITH BUOYANCY BODIES - According to the invention, inflatable buoyancy bodies are kept in storage housings on the outside of a vehicle. During normal use, buoyancy bodies are folded up and stored under covers. Only when the vehicle is on water do the covers open and buoyancy bodies fill with air. An on-board compressed air system supplies air for filling buoyancy bodies so that air, which is not required by a braking installation or the like of the vehicle, is used to fill the buoyancy bodies. The additional use of outside air enables more air to be supplied to the buoyancy bodies at a low pressure than the sole use of the on-board compressed air system. In order to empty the buoyancy bodies, a vacuum is generated in connection lines. When stop cocks are open, air is sucked out of the buoyancy bodies, which then fold up and the covers are closed and locked. | 10-01-2009 |
