Definitions
- the invention relates to a protective element for protecting an object from military threats with an armor plate, which has a threat side pointing in the direction of a threat and an object side pointing in the direction of the object to be protected. Further objects of the invention form a protective element arrangement and a vehicle body with such a protective element.
- Protective elements for the protection of objects, such as vehicles, bunkers, containers, etc. against military threats, such as more punctual impinging armor-piercing ammunition bodies or rather surface-impacting splinters, which arise, for example, during the detonation of a mine, are known from the prior art in various designs.
- protective elements made of a particularly hard material are mostly used, by means of which good protection against these rather punctiform ammunition bodies can be achieved.
- the use of ceramics or ultrahard armor steels has proven particularly useful in recent years.
- Such a protective element is known, for example, from EP 0 251 395 A1.
- the protective element On the threat side, the protective element has a harder but brittle ceramic layer for protection against armor-piercing ammunition and, on its object side facing the object to be protected, several layers of an aluminum alloy for protection against splinters.
- an aluminum alloy for protection against splinters.
- the invention is therefore based on the invention to provide a simple in construction, effective against armor-piercing ammunition as well as against splinters protective element.
- this object is achieved by a decoupling layer arranged on the threat side. Due to the arrangement of a decoupling layer on the threat side of the armor plate, an armor-piercing ammunition as well as a splinter initially strikes the decoupling layer. For an armor-piercing ammunition, the decoupling layer does not represent any appreciable resistance. The armor piercing ammunition striking the protective element penetrates the coupling layer largely undisturbed and is trapped on the underlying, much harder armor plate. When a rather flat meeting of a splitter on the decoupling layer results in a shock wave, which is initiated by the splitter on the decoupling layer in the armor plate.
- the shockwave propagates faster within the decoupling layer than the splitter penetrates into the decoupling layer, the shockwave runs in front of the penetrating splitter in the direction of the armor plate located behind it.
- the resistance of the protective element is thus increased by simple means such that both armor piercing ammunition and splinters are held in a simple manner.
- the armor plate is designed as a tank steel plate or as a ceramic armor plate.
- the armor steel plate can consist of ultra-hard steel armor.
- a ceramic armor plate this can be formed by a flat ceramic plate or several smaller ceramic elements, which are encapsulated by means of a potting compound to a composite armor plate.
- aluminum oxide, aluminum nitride, silicon carbide, boron carbide and titanium diboride may be considered as ceramic materials.
- the decoupling layer is arranged directly on the armor plate.
- a direct arrangement a defined transmission of the shock wave is achieved when a splitter hits the decoupling layer on the armor plate.
- the decoupling layer is glued to the armor plate, screwed or clamped.
- the decoupling layer is applied directly to the armor plate. For example, it can be sprayed on, painted on or be infused. It is particularly advantageous if the decoupling layer is attached over the entire surface of the armor plate.
- the thickness of the decoupling layer can be between 0.5 mm and 50 mm, preferably between 0.5 mm and 10 mm and even more preferably between 2 mm and 6 mm.
- the decoupling layer consists of a plastic or rubber material. Such materials have a much higher modulus of elasticity than the armor plate. As a result, a kind of damping effect is achieved.
- the decoupling layer comprises rubber, polymers, elastomers, natural and / or synthetic rubber, wherein a decoupling layer of an elastomer material is also distinguished over relatively long temperature ranges by good decoupling properties.
- the decoupling layer may consist of non-foamed polyurethane.
- the plastic or rubber material of the decoupling layer is formed fiber-free.
- the plastic or rubber has a homogeneous composition.
- the plastic or the rubber additives to increase the fire resistance, fire resistance, scratch resistance, abrasion resistance and / or coloration are examples of the plastic or the rubber additives to increase the fire resistance, fire resistance, scratch resistance, abrasion resistance and / or coloration.
- a reliable decoupling is achieved if the material of the decoupling layer has a Shore hardness of 70 to 95, in particular of 90. It is also advantageous for the decoupling properties if the material of the decoupling layer has a rebound resilience of 30% to 50%.
- the material of the decoupling layer has a bending coefficient of 2000 psi to 7000 psi.
- the material of the decoupling layer has a basis weight of 0.8 to 1, 5 kg / m 2 per mm thickness, in particular from 1, 0 to 1, 2 kg / m 2 per mm thickness.
- the decoupling layer is preferably arranged over the entire surface of the armor plate.
- a further development of the invention provides, in the case of an armor plate consisting of armor steel, that the armor plate has a hardness of at least 380 Brinell, preferably at least 500 Brinell and more preferably at least 600 Brinell.
- the armor plate has a hardness of at least 380 Brinell, preferably at least 500 Brinell and more preferably at least 600 Brinell.
- the thickness of the armor plate is preferably between 2 mm and 20 mm. It is preferably between 2 mm and 12 mm and more preferably between 4 mm and 10 mm. These thicknesses have proven especially in trained as armor steel plates armor plates.
- An embodiment which is advantageous in terms of a compact design provides that the protective element has a multilayer structure in which chem the armor plate forms the thickest single layer.
- the thickness of the armor plate may amount to at least 15%, preferably at least 50% and more preferably at least 75% of the thickness of the protective element.
- the ratio of the thickness of the armor plate to the thickness of the decoupling layer is at least 1 and / or at most 10, more preferably at least 2 and at most 5.
- the protective element has a protective layer covering the decoupling layer for protection against fire and / or environmental influences.
- the resistance of the protective element against environmental influences and fire can be increased. Also results in an extension of the lifetime of the protective element. Maintenance intervals are shortened.
- the damping effect of the decoupling layer can be improved by the protective layer, since the impact of a splitter is transferred from the protective layer to a larger surface of the decoupling layer than would be the case with a direct impact on the decoupling layer.
- the thickness of the protective layer is preferably 0.05 to 5 mm, more preferably 0.1 to 1 mm. In this thickness range, a good protective effect for the protective element against environmental influences sets in and the weight of the protective element is not unnecessarily increased.
- the protective layer is made of fiber composite material, metal or sand.
- fiber composite material metal or sand.
- Particularly advantageous are glass fiber composite material, Aluminum and steel proven, the steel is preferably thinner and softer than the armor plate.
- the armor plate is harder than the protective layer and the protective layer is harder than the decoupling layer.
- the protective layer is harder than the decoupling layer.
- the armor plate forms the hardest layer of the protective element.
- the protective layer advantageously forms on the threat side, the outermost layer of the protective element, so that the underlying layers are protected by the protective layer.
- the protective layer is preferably arranged directly on the decoupling layer. It can be glued to the decoupling layer, screwed, clamped or applied directly, in particular sprayed on, brushed or poured.
- the armor plate, the decoupling layer and / or the protective layer are preferably formed recess-free and / or free of cavities.
- the protective element is designed as a protection module.
- the protective element as
- the protective element can be mounted as a unit to an object and dismantled. In this respect, the assembly and the replacement of damaged protective elements is particularly simplified. In addition, to solve the above problem in a protective element arrangement of the type mentioned above, it is proposed that this has a protective element with one or more of the features described above.
- the protective element arrangement has a second armor plate, which is arranged on the object side of the protective element. Over the second armor plate a certain redundancy is achieved, so that even in the event of a breach of the outer protective element or its first armor plate protection is still given.
- the second armor plate is arranged at a distance from the armor plate of the protective element. By the distance, the protective effect of the protective element arrangement can be further increased.
- the disputed arrangement of the two pan plates results in a clearance space.

- Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a protective element 1 for the protection of objects against military threats.
- the protective element 1 is a protective module which can be attached as a structural unit to an object to be protected, such as a military vehicle, for its protection against armor-piercing ammunition as well as for protection against splinters.
- the protective element 1 has an armor plate 2 consisting of a high-hardness material with a threat side 3 pointing in the direction of the military threat and an object side 4 pointing in the direction of the object to be protected.
- the armor plate 2 forms the innermost layer of the protective element 1 and serves mainly to protect against armor-piercing ammunition body, which penetrate the outer layers largely undisturbed and are not significantly affected until they reach the armor plate 2.
- the armor plate 2 is according to the embodiment, a high-strength armor steel plate with a hardness of more than 380 Brinell.

- ceramic armor plates 2 have proven themselves under weight aspects.
- armor plates 2 of a high-hardness material act reliably against bombardment by armor-piercing ammunition which hits almost punctually, however, they have weaknesses in the case of splinters which act more extensively, armor plate 2 is preceded by a decoupling layer 5 at its threat side.
- the decoupling layer 5 can not provide any appreciable protection, since this consists of a softer material that is comparatively easy to penetrate from such a projectile.
- the decoupling layer 5 serves to protect against splinters, which rather impinge on the protective element 1 over a large area and, if they hit the brittle armor plate 2 directly, would, under certain circumstances, puncture them.
- the decoupling layer 5 serves in the manner of a damping layer, to prepare the splitter on the later impact on the armor plate 2 so that it will not penetrate.
- an elastic shock wave is introduced into the armor plate 2 via the decoupling layer 5.
- the shock wave is formed upon impact of the splitter on the decoupling layer 5 and propagates through it in the direction of the underlying armor plate 2 continued. Since the shock wave within the decoupling layer 5 moves faster than the splitter penetrates into the layer, the shockwave and the splitter uncouple from each other on the armor plate 2. This decoupling the impact of the splitter on the armor plate in time, space and geometric so prepared that the existing of a brittle material armor plate 2 is not punched.

- the protective layer 6 is arranged directly on the decoupling layer 5 and bonded to the decoupling layer 5.
- the protective layer 6 can also be dersartig be connected to the decoupling layer 5, for example by coating or releasable connection, for example by jamming.
- FIG. 2 initially shows a protective element arrangement 10 with a protective element 1, in which further elements 7, 8 are arranged on the object side to improve the protective effect in a type of redundant arrangement.
- a second armor plate 7 is arranged, which is formed substantially identical to the armor plate 2 of the protective element 1.
- the second armor plate 7 also has a decoupling layer 8 on its threat side 11. However, this can also be omitted according to further, not shown embodiments.
- the armor plate 7 has a distance a relative to the armor plate 2 of the protective element 1, so that a clearance space is created between the protective element 1 and the armor plate 7 or the decoupling layer 8.
- the spacer space 13 is filled with air, which is why the protective element 1 can deform in the direction of the armor plate 7 or the decoupling layer 8 located behind it without colliding with it.
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of a protective element arrangement 10.
- This protective element arrangement 10 essentially corresponds to the protective element arrangement according to FIG. 2, but has a third armor plate 9 which divides the spacer space 13 into two spacing spaces 14 and 15.
- the armor plate 2 of the protective element 1 has a distance b from the third armor plate 9 and the third armor plate 9 has a distance c from the second armor plate 7.
