发明名称 Structural tunnel component for an armored vehicle
摘要 A structural blast tunnel for a military vehicle includes a frame member that includes an elongated curved portion having a first end, a second end, and a middle portion disposed between the first end and the second end. The structural blast tunnel also includes a first mounting interface coupled to the first end and extending along the longitudinal axis of the frame member. The first mounting interface is configured to receive one of a front sub-frame and a standard frame of a vehicle. The structural blast tunnel finally includes a second mounting interface coupled to the second end and extending along the longitudinal axis of the frame member. The second mounting interface is configured to receive one of a rear sub-frame and a standard frame of a vehicle, and the frame member forms a structurally rigid section configured to direct blast energy outwards towards the first and second end. The structural blast tunnel may also include a secondary shield that increases the blast performance of this system.

主权项 1. A structural blast tunnel for a vehicle, comprising: a frame member including an elongated curved portion having a first end, a second end, and a middle portion disposed between the first end and the second end, the frame member further including a first sidewall and a second sidewall extending downwardly from the elongated curved portion; a first mounting interface coupled to the first end and extending along the longitudinal axis of the frame member, wherein the first mounting interface is configured to receive one of a front sub-frame and a first standard frame rail of a vehicle; and a second mounting interface coupled to the second end and extending along the longitudinal axis of the frame member, wherein the second mounting interface is configured to receive one of a rear sub-frame and a second standard frame rail of a vehicle, wherein the first mounting interface and the second mounting interface are coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, wherein the frame member forms a structurally rigid section configured to direct blast energy outwards towards the first and second end.
