A mine roller includes a bracket having a first end and a second end. The first end is adapted to be coupled to a vehicle. A rigid table has a center section and modular sections with the center section being coupled to the second end of the bracket for rotation about the second end in a first plane. The modular sections are coupled to the center section for rotation therewith. Roller banks are coupled to two of the modular sections for rotation relative thereto in a second plane that is perpendicular to the first plane.

Modular and scalable mine roller

A mine roller includes a bracket having a first end and a second end. The first end is adapted to be coupled to a vehicle. A table having a center region is coupled to the second end of the bracket for rotation about the second end in a first plane. The table has first and second telescopic portions coupled to the center region such that the table is extendable relative to the center region in opposing directions of a second plane that is perpendicular to the first plane. A roller bank is coupled to each telescopic portion of the table for rotation relative to the respective telescopic portion in a third plane that is parallel to the second plane.

Telescopic-width mine roller

A remote jettison system is provided to disconnect a mine roller from a tactical vehicle. The system enables personnel conducting mine roller operations to disengage the vehicle from the mine roller without leaving the vehicle. The remote jettison system has two assemblies: A mine roller assembly and a tactical vehicle assembly. The mine roller assembly, which is connected to the mine roller, can be remotely disconnected from the tactical vehicle assembly, which is mounted on the vehicle. The system utilizes one mechanized latch to release the mine roller assembly from the tactical vehicle assembly, allowing the force of gravity to cause them to separate.
