LAYING AND STABILIZATION DRIVE OF TANK ARMAMENT Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: automatic control and adjustment systems, in particular, stabilizers of tank armament.

SUBSTANCE: the laying and stabilization drive has series-connected adder, first amplifier, power amplifier, elevation hydraulic drive consisting of a hydraulic booster, pump, drive engine and an actuating cylinder with hydrolocking electromagnets located on it. The actuating cylinder is mechanically linked with the gun carrying the rate gyro and the turret positioned on which are the sight with a control panel, attitude sensor and a stop. The turret through the journal unit and the attitude sensor through the position transducer are connected to the gun respectively, the outputs of the rate gyro and the attitude sensor are connected to the second input of the adder. The first and second outputs of the stop are connected to the first and second inputs of the power amplifier. In addition the drive uses the second amplifier, the first gate, the second gate, the fifth gate, the first comparator, the first reference voltage source, the third gate, integrator, the second reference voltage source, the second comparator, the third reference voltage source, the fourth gate.

EFFECT: enhanced operating potentialities of the drive due to removal of limitation on inadmissibility of gun holding on stop for more than a minute.
