METHOD OF DETERMINING LATERAL DRIVING DIRECTION OF FIRING FROM ARTILLERY MOUNT AND DEVICE THEREFOR Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC F41G3/10 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: proposed method consists in that, first, unpiling barrel of artillery mount (hereinafter AM) from “at cruising" position, then barrel is installed in horizontal position and level AM using level to control platform and preparation of elements and units of system to measurements, then measured value of fire direction at change of barrel elevation and mismatch is determined on value of side of fire direction and optical correction on the lateral deviation of fire direction is introduced into AM target guidance control system, wherein levelling of barrel and axes of AM journals is conducted both by turning of turret or by turning of AM cradle rotating part, and value of side of the barrel axis from vertical plane measurement at variation of angles of vertical homing of AM by means of a special device - barrel angular displacement meter (BADM) and barrel angular position measurement results using BADM determined are values of pulpit journals weapon control platform on AM breech angular displacement axes of journals base barrel channel axis, then correction is determined from obtained parameters on lateral deviation of AM fire direction. Also disclosed is original device to implement such method, made in form of barrel angular displacement meter with centering stem inserted in muzzle part of barrel, and measuring unit, inserted into centering stem with help of Morse cone and containing support plate with small-size measuring module including three-axis gyro angle transducer and three-axis acceleration sensor, wherein base plate of measurement unit is connected to Morse cone through controlled ball support.

EFFECT: disclosed is highly efficient group of inventions in artillery involving method of determining lateral driving direction of firing from AM and device for its implementation.
