摘要: A stabilization system for the turret and cradle of an armored vehicle for maintaining the orientation of a weapon supported therein in an inertial frame of reference, thereby correcting for disturbances of the hull of the vehicle caused by steering in a direction other than directly at the desired target as well as for variations in pitch, roll and yaw caused by movement over uneven terrain. Two rate gyros mounted on the cradle, a rate gyro on the hull cooperate in pairs to provide inertial control signals in elevation and traverse to modify servo loop dynamic response and to maintain a stabilized position with respect to a preselected frame of reference. In each axis signals developed by integration of one cradle rate gyro output, by a servo valve position transducer, a tachometer coupled to the hydraulic motor and a paired rate gyro, and by differentiation of the tachometer and paired rate gyro output are combined with the manually introduced signal derived from the gunner''s station for control of the servo valve and the motor for positioning either the turret or the cradle supporting the weapon. Automatic drift compensation is included for correction of electronic offsets and mechanical variances within the system, consisting of a potentiometer mechanically coupled into the system at the option of the operator to produce a continuous signal, thereby providing correction to the combined control signal applied to the servo valve.
