Abstract

The device i.e. deflector, has roller elements designed as rope rollers, and arranged over pivot bearing, which is arranged in a rotational axis of a rudder (2), where deflector is designed of a fiber rope (5) made of high tensile plastic. The fiber rope is guided over roller elements for deflection in an outer area of the rudder and/or fins in a circular manner. The fiber rope is arranged on a tensioned manner such that a tear takes place at the rudder or fin, during load exceeding of an adjusted variable.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung für U-Boote als Abweiser im Bereich von Antriebs- und Steuereinrichtungen in Form von gespannten drahtförmigen Elementen für eine Umspannung von Ruder und/oder Flossen.The invention relates to a device for submarines as a deflector in the field of drive and control devices in the form of tensioned wire-shaped elements for a re-tension of rudders and / or fins.

Es ist aus der DE 32 42 290 A1 bekannt, sogenannte Drahtabweiser an den hinteren Ruderblättern von U-Booten anzuordnen. Bei diesen Abweisern handelt es sich um eine Anordnung, die die kreuzförmige Kontur der hinteren Ruderblätter eines U-Bootes zu einer umlaufenden, glatten, rechteckigen Kontur durch einzelne Stränge mit Federelementen und Spannschlössern verbindet. Durch diese Kontur des Abweisers wird verhindert, daß beispielsweise ein Lenkdraht eines Torpedos in einen Propeller des U-Bootes sich verhakt. Vorhandene Abweiser bestehen somit aus einem System mit vielen Einzelteilen, wie aus Drehlagern, Kipphebeln, Kardangelenken, Gummifederelementen, Spannelementen, Verkleidungsteilen und einem tragenden Niro-Rundstahl-Draht.It is from the DE 32 42 290 A1 known to arrange so-called wire deflectors on the rear rudder blades of submarines. These deflectors are an arrangement that connects the cross-shaped contour of the rear rudder blades of a submarine to a circumferential, smooth, rectangular contour by individual strands with spring elements and turnbuckles. By this contour of the deflector prevents, for example, a steering wire of a torpedo entangled in a propeller of the submarine. Existing deflectors thus consist of a system with many individual parts, such as pivot bearings, rocker arms, universal joints, rubber spring elements, clamping elements, trim parts and a supporting stainless steel round wire.

Die Lage des Drahtabweisers an einem U-Boot mit X-Rudern ist sehr exponiert, so daß der Abweiser beim An- und Ablegen des U-Bootes oft beschädigt wird. Hierbei werden zahlreiche teure Bauteile des Drahtabweisers zerstört. Während die Demontage des Abweisers unter Wasser nur mit Schwierigkeiten möglich ist, ist die Reparatur unter Wasser praktisch nicht möglich. Im Normalfall wird das U-Boot zur Reparatur des Abweisers eingedockt.The position of the wire deflector on a submarine with X-rowers is very exposed, so that the deflector is often damaged when putting on and taking off the submarine. In this case, many expensive components of the wire deflector are destroyed. While disassembly of the deflector under water is only possible with difficulty, repair under water is practically impossible. Normally, the submarine is docked to repair the deflector.

Weiterhin wurde nach der DE 305 132 A ein Abweiser für Tiefenruder vorgeschlagen, wobei aber keine X-Anordnung von Rudern mit einer Umspannung vorgeschlagen wird. Hierbei sind zwei über Rollen geführte Abweiserseile mit zwischengeschalteten Federn vorgeschlagen worden, die mit einem Ende ins Bootsinnere geführt werden und bei Bewegung der Ruderwelle über eine Kurbelwelle ein Längenausgleich einstellbar sind. Diese Anordnung erfordert einen großen Wartungsaufwand und verursacht entsprechende Geräusche bei einer Verstellung.Furthermore, after the DE 305 132 A proposed a deflector for depth rudder, but proposed no X-arrangement of rudders with a re-tension. Here, two guided over rollers deflector cables have been proposed with intermediate springs, which are guided with one end into the boat interior and a length compensation can be adjusted by moving the rudder shaft via a crankshaft. This arrangement requires a lot of maintenance and causes corresponding noise during an adjustment.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist einen einfachen Abweiser der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, der um die Ruder herumführbar ist und eine Austauschbarkeit kurzfristig Unterwasser ermöglicht und ein gutes hydrodynamisches und akustisches Verhalten aufweist.The object of the invention is to provide a simple deflector of the generic type, which can be guided around the rudder and allows short term underwater interchangeability and has a good hydrodynamic and acoustic behavior.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß der Abweiser durch ein Faserseil aus Kunststoff gebildet ist, das über Führungselemente als Rollenelemente zur Umlenkung im Außenbereich von Ruder und/oder Flossen umlaufend geführt ist.The solution of this object is achieved according to the invention in that the deflector is formed by a fiber rope made of plastic, which is circumferentially guided over guide elements as roller elements for deflection in the outer region of the rudder and / or fins.

Hierdurch wird eine umlaufende Anordnung geschaffen, die eine Dehnung des gesamten Seiles ausnutzt und durch eine punktförmige Berührung in den Umlenkpunkten nachgibt. Ferner wird das Pendeln eines sich unter Last verformenden Kunststoff-Ruders ausgeglichen. Gegenüber einem Stahlseil ist zusätzlich eine größere Schwingungsdämpfung vorhanden.As a result, a circumferential arrangement is created, which utilizes an elongation of the entire rope and yields by a point-like contact in the deflection points. Furthermore, the oscillation of a deforming under load plastic rudder is compensated. Compared to a steel cable, a larger vibration damping is additionally available.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Rollenelemente über Drehlager angeordnet und die Drehlager in der Drehachse der Ruder angeordnet sind.It is also proposed that the roller elements are arranged via pivot bearings and the pivot bearings are arranged in the axis of rotation of the rudder.

Eine günstige Ausbildung besteht darin, daß das Faserseil aus hochfesten Kunststoffasern gebildet ist.A favorable design is that the fiber rope is formed of high-strength plastic fibers.

Um bei Überlastung der Ruder einen Schutz zu erzielen, wird vorgeschlagen, daß das Faserseil derart gespannt angeordnet ist, daß bei Lastüberschreitung einer eingestellten Größe über die Ruder oder Flossen ein Abriß erfolgt.In order to achieve protection when overloading the rudder, it is proposed that the fiber rope is arranged so taut that a break occurs in load exceeding a set size on the rudder or fins.

In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel schematisch dargestellt. Es zeigen:

In the drawing, an embodiment is shown schematically. Show it:
Fig. 1
a rear view on a rowing arrangement of a submarine and
Fig. 2
an enlarged detail II of the Fig. 1

Bei der dargestellten Anordnung sind im Heckteile 1 des U-Bootes vier Ruder 2 angeordnet, die über eine Drehachse 3 bewegbar sind. Im außenliegenden Bereich der Ruder 2 sind in der Drehachse 3 Rollenelemente 4 als Führungselemente angeordnet, die über ein Drehlager 6 angeordnet sind.In the illustrated arrangement, four rudders 2 are arranged in the rear parts 1 of the submarine, which are movable via a rotation axis 3. In the outer region of the rudder 2 3 roller elements 4 are arranged as guide elements in the axis of rotation, which are arranged via a pivot bearing 6.

Die Rollenelemente 4 sind dabei als Seilrollen ausgebildet und dienen zur Aufnahme eines Faserseils 5 aus Kunststoff, das als geschlossener umlaufender Ring als Umspannung angeordnet ist und über eine Spannvorrichtung 7 zusammengefügt ist. Durch die umlaufende Anordnung ist es möglich, eine Dehnung des gesamten Faserseils 5 auszunutzen.The roller elements 4 are designed as pulleys and are used to hold a fiber rope 5 made of plastic, which is arranged as a closed circumferential ring as a loop and is joined together by a clamping device 7. Due to the peripheral arrangement, it is possible to exploit an elongation of the entire fiber rope 5.

Das Faserseil 5 besteht zweckmäßigerweise hochfesten Kunststoffasern, beispielsweise aus einem hochfesten Polyethylen, wie es unter dem Handelsnamen Dyneema bekannt ist.
Eine Umspannung durch das Faserseil 5 ermöglicht somit durch eine punktförmige Berührung in den Umlenkbereichen 8 eine gute Nachgiebigkeit, das zentral über Wasser spannbar ist und ein Pendeln der sich unter Last verformenden Ruder 2 aus Kunststoff ausgleichbar ist.
The fiber rope 5 is expediently high-strength plastic fibers, for example of a high-strength polyethylene, as it is known under the trade name Dyneema.
A re-tensioning by the fiber rope 5 thus allows a good compliance, which can be tensioned centrally over water by a punctiform contact in the deflection regions 8 and a swinging of the under load deforming rudder 2 made of plastic can be compensated.
