Abstract: A bow system and an idler wheel for the bow system (1) is provided. The bow system comprises a first limb (3) and a second limb (4), a riser (2) interconnecting the first (3) and second (4) limbs, a first (5) and a second (6) idler wheel, and a bowstring (9) arranged between the first (5) and the second (6) idler wheel. The first idler wheel (5) is rotationally journalled in a first end portion of the riser (2) and the second idler wheel (6) is rotationally journalled in a second end portion of the riser (2) such that both idler wheels (5, 6) are stationary when the bow system (1) is tensioned.

Abstract: An air intake for a motorized vehicle, for obtaining a low radar and IR signature of a ballistically protected air intake (10) of the vehicle. The air intake (10) has a perforated armour plate (12) lying level with an outer bodywork plate (14) of the vehicle, and a fresh-air duct (18) which adjoins the inside of the perforated armour plate (12) and which has a fan (20) for sucking the fresh air necessary for running the vehicle into the duct via air intake openings (16) in the armour plate. A wall section (22) of the fresh-air duct (18) situated between the air intake openings (16) and a heat-generating source (24) in the vehicle is air-cooled.

Abstract: Turret (12) fitted with automatic canon and intended for a combat unit, said turret (12) comprising a turret housing (14) which is intended to be mounted on the outside of the combat unit and can rotate about a substantially vertical axis, and in which turret housing (14) there is a weapon holder (16) for pivotably supporting a canon about a horizontal axis, which canon has a barrel (20) projecting from the turret housing (14) and a rear part (22) with associated loading mechanism (24) situated inside the housing (14). At least one ammunition magazine (26, 28) is arranged to the side of the rear part (22) of the canon and has an outlet (29, 31) for the ammunition belt situated in such a way that the latter can be conveyed from a rear part of the magazine and guided forwards along an underside (33) of the magazine and thereafter curved through ca. 90° about an axis substantially at right angles to the plane of the belt for feeding the projectiles to the loading mechanism (24).

Abstract: The invention relates to an air intake for a motorized vehicle, in particular for obtaining a low radar and IR signature of a ballistically protected air intake (10) of the vehicle. The air intake (10) has a perforated armor plate (12) lying level with an outer bodywork plate (14) of the vehicle, and a fresh-air duct (18) which adjoins the inside of the perforated armor plate (12) and which has a fan (20) for sucking the fresh air necessary for running the vehicle into the duct via air intake openings (16) in the armor plate. A wail section (22) of the fresh-air duct (18) situated between the air intake openings (16) and a heat-generating source (24) in the vehicle is air-cooled.

Abstract: The invention concerns an arrangement for a discharge system for combustion gases from a motor-driven vehicle which gives the vehicle a low IR signature. According to the invention, the gas outflow channel (28), at least in an area of the channel adjacent to the discharge aperture (32), has a boundary wall (34) which is perforated right up to the open discharge aperture (32) and surrounded by a cooling air channel (38). The arrangement is such that cooling air can sweep over the inner side as well as the outer side of the perforated wall (34).

Abstract: The invention relates to a tracked motor vehicle (10) with an engine-equipped vehicle drive module (12) with two parallel track carrier units (14) attached to the sides of the drive module in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The drive module (12) is connected to a front part of the respective track carrier units (14) by means of a fastening trunnion (36) on the rear part of the drive module (12) and hollow fastening devices (38) on its front part. Vibration-damping rubber elements are arranged at the fastening trunnions and the fastening devices.
