Abstract

A lower gun mount, which can be mounted in a standardized way on a ship or a permanent ground foundation, is used so that a gun can be mounted with minimal effort quickly, reproducibly and without slip, and later dismounted. This standardized lower gun mount is mounted geometrically correctly on a foundation or ship by so-called standardized ISO corners, which can be fixed in place on supports specially provided for this purpose and a mounting frame that assists the mounting. This makes it possible for the gun to be mounted rigidly and without play.

Claims (9)

1 . An ISO pallet-concept gun, comprising:

a lower gun mount;

standardized corners on the lower gun mount; and

supports for mounting the corners on a ship or a permanent ground foundation.

2 . The gun in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the supports are configured to positively lock the corners in at least one direction in space.

3 . The gun in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each support has at least one base with a bolt connection and a female part.

4 . The gun in accordance with claim 1 , wherein a support has two lateral faces, each of which lateral faces has a slotted hole.

5 . The gun in accordance with claim 4 , wherein the corners have lateral faces with a slotted hole equivalent to the slotted hole of the support, so that the slotted holes correspond to each other during mounting/fixation of the corners on the support.

6 . The gun in accordance with claim 5 , and further comprising bolt connections with heads adapted to the slotted holes of the corners and the slotted holes of the supports, wherein the bolts pass through the slotted holes and the heads are relieved behind the lateral faces of the corners.
