AUTOMATED ARMAMENT CONTROL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: automated armament control systems.

SUBSTANCE: the system has a control panel, gun, manual and automated gun aiming drives, sight with the first indicator, switching unit of automated gun aiming and successively connected manual cage drive, cage, sight line stabilizer and an optical forming system, as well as respective couplings providing their joined operation. The invention is featured by the fact that introduced are the second and third indicators, electromagnetic clutch, time relay and an electromagnetic cage drive, as well as couplings providing for interconnection of the introduced and known components and their joined operation. Introduction in the automated armament control system of the time relay, electromagnetic cage drive, indicators, etc., as well as of new couplings makes it possible to enhance the speed of response and reliability of the system in the periods of change-over of the operating conditions, switching-on and switching-off of the control system. Practical measurements carried out on the known and offered systems show that the switching-on and switching-off of the systems save from 10 to 45s. Besides, the human engineering conditions of layer's operation are improved, he is freed of the necessity to exert considerable physical efforts, mental calculation of time intervals, reach and push his way to distant control members.

EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of functioning makes up 10%.
