1 TARIFF MOVABLE PROTECTIVE DEVICE FOR A DRIVER'S CAB TECHNICAL AREA 5 The invention is a device that can be moved by hydraulic pistons and covers the cabin of vehicles from above. It relates to a modular ballistic protection system. STATE OF THE ART 10 Generally, both stationary and mobile platforms are used for launching munitions. On mobile platforms, thanks to launch systems integrated onto the truck. The launch of ammunition is being carried out. During the launch, the ammunition has a label on it. Due to the missile engine, there was a violent plume ejection from the rear of the munition. 15 It is observed that this plum contains high temperature, pressure and gas flow, affecting the vehicle and It has the potential to cause serious harm to personnel in the driver's cab. The plume effect and Due to the risk of ammunition explosion, in current practices personnel usually abandon the vehicle. He waits at a distance from the vehicle until the shooting ends. However, some In operational scenarios, 20 are needed to take quick action or change location. It is mandatory for personnel to be inside the vehicle. In the known state of the art, personnel To provide protection, driver cabins are manufactured with ballistic armor directly applied. However, this This approach has several disadvantages. The production cost of ballistic armored cabins is extremely high. Since the price is high and truck manufacturers generally produce for the civilian sector, the military... It avoids entering into the production of purpose-built armored cabins. Furthermore, fixed armored cabin solutions are a 25 It cannot be transferred from one vehicle to another and must be reproduced for different vehicle types. It requires.

The carrier arm's ballistic protection chamber is adjusted to be aligned with the top of the driver's cab. and when in a free position, it aligns the ballistic protection housing of the carrier arm with the chassis. This is because the vehicle is configured in such a way that the driver's cabin can receive active protection when needed. While providing this, under standard conditions where protection is not required, the reservoir is aligned with the chassis and separated from it. The removal of the vehicle reduces its overall usability, mobility, and structural integrity. This ensures that ergonomics are not restricted. 15 In a preferred configuration of the invention, a ballistic protection chamber is located at one end. It includes a push arm that is articulated and integrated into the chassis at one end. Thus, the hopper can be put into and taken out quickly, reliably and with mechanical stability is provided. 20 In a preferred configuration of the invention, the push rod is adjusted as a hydraulic piston. This ensures that the reservoir is activated with a long-lasting and smooth kinematic response. It is possible to remove it. In a preferred configuration of the invention, the second end of the carrier arm is ballistically protected.

Thus, the reservoir with high thrust, without deviating from its trajectory, mechanically synchronized and flawlessly It is ensured that it can be switched on and off in a linear fashion. 15 In a preferred configuration of the invention, the first end of the carrier arm rotates on the chassis. it is connected by means of a shaft and the rotating shaft is the axis of rotation of the carrier arm. by generating a linear thrust force of the pusher arm, it causes the ballistic protection housing to rotate. It is designed to transform the armor. Thus, with a compact system, 20 It can be rotated and placed in the target location safely, quickly and smoothly. is provided. In a preferred configuration of the invention, the ballistic protection chamber's protection position and It will move along an angular trajectory of 70-80 degrees between free and 25 degrees. It is adjustable. Thus, it can be used even in narrow or height-restricted operational areas. The design ensures that the reservoir can be safely activated and deactivated without snagging on the surrounding environment. In a preferred configuration of the invention, the ballistic protection chamber has a modular structure. It is designed to accommodate 30 different chassis dimensions and cabinet sizes. It can also be integrated into various vehicle platforms. In a preferred configuration of the invention, the ballistic protection chamber is located above the driver's cab. It is designed to be in a structure that surrounds the periphery from that point. Thus, This ensures an isolated and safe living space for the operator inside the driver's cab. 35 4 In a preferred configuration of the invention, the ballistic protection chamber is made of a metal material. The ballistic protection chamber is made of a metal material. This ensures the overall mechanical strength, rigidity, and kinetic energy absorption of the armor structure. Its resistance is increased. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES Figure 1 shows two separate diagrams detailing the locking mechanism of the assembly station that is the subject of the invention.
