The invention relates to an angle mirror including a backup sight. The angle mirror includes a housing connected to a mirror head and a lower part. An objective is arranged outside of the housing and is connected to the housing by an optical connection, for example a fiber optic line, that does not require electrical power or current to transmit the image from the objective. The mirror head and the objective provide separate images to a first insight and a second insight, respectively. The objective functions as a backup or auxiliary sight of the surrounding environment even in the event of a power failure.
The invention relates to a deflecting device for deflecting belt links of different ammunition, such as those used on vehicles for example. The deflecting device comprises at least one deflecting surface which is suitable for deflecting the belt links. The deflecting surface is arranged on an underlying surface which is designed to be soft and flexible. The deflecting device additionally comprises at least one securing element, and the deflecting device can thus be secured to a vehicle or a tower of a vehicle.
A vehicle having a chassis and at least one add-on system. The add-on system is arranged on the vehicle. Furthermore, at least one movable wall and/or panel is arranged on the vehicle. In this case the add-on system as well as the movable wall and/or panel can assume an operating position and a rest position, wherein in the rest position the add-on system is completely concealed by the movable wall and/or panel. In the rest position the movable wall and/or panel is inserted into the contour of the vehicle in such a way that a continuously closed contour is present on the vehicle.
A device for a ventilation system. An air-conditioning unit comprising a rear wall is arranged such that it is oriented, with the rear wall thereof, towards the module or space to be ventilated such that it is to be reached from said module or space. An interface for air output is arranged on the rear wall, said interface being divided into a plurality of air output points. Said air output points are arranged in different positions on the rear wall. Since all of the air output points do not need to be used, a controller for controlling the air output, which can prevent or enable the air output at the air output points, are associated with the air output points.
An air start unit for starting and servicing jet engines in aircraft and other flying machines, wherein at least one compressor is provided for generating air and a power supply for supplying electrical power consumers. The air start unit drives the compressor with at least one electric motor, with the electric motor drawing the electrical energy for operation from a high-voltage battery. The electric motors then in turn drive the compressor, which generates compressed air from ambient air for the purpose of starting and servicing the jet engines in aircraft and other flying machines. With an appropriate battery capacity, the air start unit can also supply power consumer of these aircraft and other flying machines via the power supply.
A device for damping vibrations acting on a tracked vehicle is provided, which has a front and rear track roller. Torsion springs are mounted along a vehicle pan. Alternatively, the torsion springs can be subdivided into smaller torsion springs. For the immediate track rollers, a further device is provided in which the long torsion springs which hitherto absorbed the torsion are divided into a plurality of smaller torsion springs and mounted not transversely with respect to the vehicle pan, but in a direction of travel with respect thereto. The torsion springs are functionally connected to one another via drive and/or transmission elements, and are accommodated outside an interior space. In this way, no further installation space is required transversely with respect to and below the vehicle pan, at most in the side region or within a small recess in the pan, a so-called pan niche.

Weapon system with a carrier vehicle and a preferably vehicle dependent mortar
A weapon system includes a carrier vehicle and a vehicle dependent mortar, wherein the carrier vehicle has a crew space and a weaponry space to house the mortar, and the mortar is charged in an index position with mortar grenades, with several sheddable propellant modules on the tail shaft thereof. The weapon system avoids manual loading of the mortar with mortar grenades because an automatic loader is arranged in a weapon space separated from the crew space by a separating wall. The loader transports the mortar grenade from a magazine in the weapon space into the index position of the barrel of the mortar and axially inserts it into the mouth of the barrel, and an automatic shedding device is arranged in the weapon space to automatically remove unnecessary propellant modules from the mortar grenade after fixing target parameters and before insertion of the mortar grenade into the barrel.
The invention embodies the turret (10) as a protected cell (1) with its own protective plates (7) and then provides this with an additional casing of protective plates (9) so that both together implement a modular protective construction with different levels of protection. Outside the protected cell (1), assemblies (2) can be arranged that do not need to be within the direct reach of the operator. This can be in addition to the ammunition, the electronics for the ammunition feed, and also the electronics of the turret control or the like. These assemblies (2) are again encased by a lattice structure (8) that serves as an accommodation possibility for other protective elements (9) that form the outer skin of the turret (10).
A vehicle with protection against the effects of an exploding land mine is provided, in which a military wheeled vehicle is provided with wheel axels and drives built into front and/or rear building blocks. The vehicle is divided into multiple building blocks, although a three block construction is desirable (i.e., a front building block, a rear building block, and a main building block). A residual mobility of a remaining portion of the vehicle is preserved, even though one of the front building block or the rear building block is separated from the main building block due to the explosive shock wave generated by driving over and detonating a land mine, because each of the front building block and the rear building block has a drive for rotating the wheel axel connected to the block.
A mine protection vehicle system is proposed wherein a military wheeled vehicle is provided with a high degree of mine protection. Preferably the vehicle has a three-sectioned vehicle construction that includes a front building block, a main building block and rear building block. The building blocks are separable from one another. The main building block may be designed to be slanted toward the bottom and double walled. A cabin, serving to provide a crew space, is hung up on support structure of the main building block. Wheel axles and drives are built into the front and/or rear building block; however, no wheel axle is disposed below the main building block.
A vehicle train assembly including a first vehicle and at least one further vehicle in a loosely coupleable not-track-bound train where, in particular, a combination of a manned master vehicle and an unmanned slave vehicle is provided, wherein the order that the master vehicle is in, either in front of or behind the slave vehicle, can be selected. Both vehicle types (i.e., master, slave) can be without functional impact whether manned or unmanned. The technical equipment of the vehicle can be so provided that it is selectable which vehicle can be used as master vehicle or slave vehicle. The application is, however, not limited to mine search and clearance vehicles.
