SONDHEIMER A |
An underwater weapons system having an encapsulated torpedo and an anchor assembly which may be planted in the water by a submarine, aircraft, or surface ship. Shortly after water-entry the anchor separates, leaving the encapsulated torpedo vertically moored at a predetermined depth. Detection equipment on the casing listens passively for a target, and upon target detection, an active transducer is activated to classify the potential target. Upon classification, the casing opens, releasing and activating a homing torpedo having self-contained target-seeking capabilities.

1. In a moored mine and mine anchor having a mooring cable, a force balancing system, said system comprises a pivoted bar, means for applying to one end of said bar a force proportional to the depth of the water in which the anchor rests when on the bottom, means responsive only to the pay out of the mooring cable for applying a force to said bar for counterbalancing the force applied to the one end of said bar, means actuated by said bar when the counterbalancing force exceeds the applied force to cause the pay out of the cable to stop.

A mine anchor for anchoring a buoyant mine and provided with a rotatable drum for a mine anchoring wire.In order to obtain a reliable and accurate anchoring at a preset depth there is a contact manometer at the mine and a signal line for transmitting a signal therefrom to an exploding device on the mine locking the drum against further rotation. |

A tethered naval mine adapted automatically to maintain a predetermined depth below the surface of a body of water despite changes in water level. Provision is made for safeguarding operating personnel prior to deployment of the mine and to cause self-destruction thereof upon expiration of a predetermined period. The mine arrangement is such as to effect detonation either upon contact with a craft or by disturbances produced by the wake of a vessel or by mine-sweeping apparatus. |

PURPOSE:To moor a can body at predetermined laying depth, by converting the hydraulic pressure through a piston into the axial movement of a stopper chip then regulating the movement of the stopper chip and a rolling chip. CONSTITUTION:The hydraulic pressure variation due to the sinking of an engaging device 2 is converted into the axial movement of a piston 9. While the feeding amount of a mooring rope 4 due to the floating of a can body is inverted through the locus of a reduction gear mechanism 21 and a groove 17' into the axial movement of a rolling chip 17a to be engaged in said groove. A stopper chip 13 will move on a fixed shaft 27 and a movable shaft 26 where the length between the starting position of the stopper chip 13 on the fixed shaft 27 and the movable shaft 26 is set to correspond with the laying depth. Since the length of the movable shaft 26 is shorter by the regulating depth of the fixed shaft 27, the can body will float. Consequently the can body is moored at predetermined laying depth. |

PURPOSE:To provide a mine mooring method, according to which mines are moored by rigid mine retaining members which are supported by means of buoys or the like in the manner vertically movable in the water, such that they are always placed at a fixed distance to the sea surface independently of rise and fall of the tide. |
