Merek, Blackmon & Voorhees, LLC
Protected vehicle or ship
The invention relates to a vehicle equipped with seats and/or equipment for use in areas in which the detonation of mines or the like are feared, wherein walls, floor and ceiling are provided with an arrangement that can withdraw energy from the blast wave of a detonation by deformation, and the floor is suspended only through ropes, rods or chains with separable connections. At least one pressure sensor and/or acceleration sensor is provided, which reacts to a blast wave, outputs a signal and ignites explosive charges thereby. The explosive charges (11) are arranged at the separable connections (8) and these are broken before the blast wave of a detonation has reached the floor (10).
