Abstract

A protective module ( 1 ) for the protection of an object, in particular against hollow charge projectiles, includes several sequentially or super-posed attached plates (P 1 to P n ) for the formation of several capacitances (C 1 to C n ), with preference given to dielectric ceramics ( 3 ) tied in between plates (P 1 to P n ), whereby the protective module ( 1 ) can be formed by several protective part modules ( 10 ). Thus, the protective part modules ( 10 ) are arranged adjacent to each other so as to form the protective module ( 1 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A protective module for the protection of objects, against hollow charge missiles, the protective module comprising:
 a plurality of sequentially arranged, or superposed, or sequentially arranged and superposed plates that form a distributed first capacitance, or that form several second capacitances, or that form the distributed first capacitance and several second capacitances on an object.   
     
     
         2 . A protective module according to  claim 1 , wherein dielectric ceramics are disposed in between individual plates of the plurality of plates. 
     
     
         3 . A protective module according to  claim 1 , wherein the protective module is sub-divided into a plurality of protective part modules. 
     
     
         4 . A protective module according to  claim 3 , wherein the plurality of protective part modules include first plates that are designed symmetrically with one another and second plates that are designed asymmetrically with one another. 
     
     
         5 . A protective module according to  claim 3   4 , wherein each protective part module comprises a number of plates that varies per protective part module. 
     
     
         6 . A protective module according to  claim 3 , wherein the protective part modules are connected with each other so that with a detected attack, condensers in a firing range are provided with additional tension in order to increase current amplitude between adjacent plates. 
     
     
         7 . A protective module according to  claim 6 , wherein the additional tension is provided by a central condenser of the object. 
     
     
         8 . A protective module according to  claim 1 , wherein for a distribution of capacitance, a first condenser is arranged in the protective module and a second condenser is arranged centrally within the object. 
     
     
         9 . A protective module according to  claim 3 , wherein for distribution of capacitance, a first condenser is respectively provided in the plurality of protective modules and a central condenser of the object is operably connected with the first condenser. 
     
     
         10 . A protective module according to  claim 2 , wherein the protective module is sub-divided into a plurality of protective part modules. 
     
     
         11 . A protective module according to  claim 10 , wherein the plurality of protective part modules include first plates that are designed symmetrically with one another and second plates that are designed asymmetrically with one another. 
     
     
         12 . A protective module according to  claim 8 , wherein the additional tension is provided by a central condenser. 
     
     
         13 . A stationary or moveable object provided with electrical armor that is disposed to protect the object against a hollow charge missile, wherein the electrical armor comprises a protective module, wherein the protective module comprises:
 a plurality of sequentially arranged, or superposed, or sequentially arranged and superposed, plates that form a distributed first capacitance, or that form several second capacitances, or that form the distributed first capacitance and several second capacitances on the object.   
     
     
         14 . A stationary or moveable object according to  claim 13 , wherein the object is a vehicle.
