SYSTEM FOR TANK PROTECTION AGAINST TOXIC AGENTS Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: systems for protection of combat vehicle crews against the effect of toxic agents and bacteriological weapon. SUBSTANCE: the protective system has a device of chemical reconnaissance with an air intake, control equipment, mechanisms for sealing of the inhabited section with actuating devices, blower-separator with an actuating device and an operating duty selector, blower intake valve and a filter connection valve with actuating devices, filter-absorber. The system also has an inhabited section, isolated compartment, excessive pressure transducer with make contacts, distributor of air feed from the inhabited section to the compartment and a distributor of air feed from the compartment outside with actuating devices, collector- type programmer actuated by an electric motor with a reduction gear, and a motor actuating relay with break contacts, as well as an isolation diode. The system ensures a reliable protection of crews against toxic agents, radioactive dust and bacteriological aerosols due to the necessary air exchange factor at a high leak-proofness of the combat vehicle inhabited compartment. EFFECT: enhanced degree of tank protection. 2 dwg
