Description
TITLE: MODULAR WEAPONS LOCKER
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates generally to lockers for locking up firearms.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Many organizations such as the military, police or other paramilitary organizations must store a quantity of weapons and firearms on premises. In order to maintain a safe environment and to comply with various gun control laws, it is usually required that the firearms be stored in a secure gun locker. Various gun lockers are available on the market. They generally include a cabinet with a locking door and one or more supports for holding the firearms.

DETATLED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring firstly to figure 1, the present invention is a modular storage locker or safe for storing and securing firearms and weapons. The storage locker, shown generally as item 10, consists of a strong rigid steel housing 12 having interior 13, side walls 14, back wall 16, top wall 18, bottom 20 and open front 22. Open front 22 is provided with door 24 which is pivotally attached to side wall 14 and is dimensioned and configured to close off open front 22 when the door is pivoted into a fully closed position. Door 24 should be provided with a locking mechanism 25 for locking the door closed. Several suitable locking mechanisms are available on the market. Door 24 consists of two separate doors, namely outer door 26 and inner door 28.
Both outer door 26 and inner door 28 are pivotally attached to housing 12 to permit the doors to be swung between an open and closed position. Outer door 26 is preferably configured as a solid sheet, which when locked in its closed position, prevents any entry into housing 12. Inner door 28 is preferably a screen door which is made sufficiently strong to prevent forced entry into housing 12 when the inner door is locked closed, but which has numerous small openings permitting a visual inspection of the contents of housing 12 when the outer door is opened.
Withing housing 12 is bottom rest 34 and mounting wall 30. Bottom rest 34 is mounted within housing 12 above bottom 20. Mounting wall 30 has numerous mounting apertures 32 which permit the mounting of various brackets and racks to the mounting wall.
Numerous racks and brackets are attached to mounting wall 30 such as vertical gun stock rack 36, horizontal gun racks 38 and 39, vertical barrel racks 40a and 40b and brackets 42. As more particularly explained later in the application, the various brackets and racks are simply mounted to mounting wall 30 by mounting screws. This makes it easy to re-arrange the position and orientation of the various racks and brackets in order to tailor the storage locker for a particular assortment of firearms.
Referring now to figures 6a and 6b, a typical rack or bracket for mounting in the locker will have a vertical wall 44 for mounting to the mounting wall of the locker.
Vertical wall 44 will have upper tab 46 and lower tab 48 and aperture 50 positioned between tabs 46 and 48. As better seen in figure 11, bracket 40a may be attached to mounting wall 30 by simply positioning tabs 46 and 48 within apertures 32 in order to hang the bracket to the mounting wall. Tabs 46 and 48 cling to lower lips 39 of apertures 32. Aperture 50 is positioned between tabs 46 and 48 so as to align with apertures 35 on mounting wall 30, thereby permitting vertical wall 44 to be secured to mounting wall 30 by mounting screw 52 which screws into apertures 50 and 35. This makes mounting a bracket to mounting wall 30 very simple. Apertures 32 and 35 are equally spaced along mounting wall 30, therefore any type of bracket or rack component may be attached to the mounting wall provided the bracket or rack component has a corresponding pair of tabs and a centrally positioned aperture.
Referring now to figure 2, mounting wall 30 consists of a flat sheet of steel having a surface 41 upon which are formed a series of parallel rows of equally spaced apart apertures 32 and 35. Brackets 33 permit mounting wall 30 to be mounted to back wall 16 of housing 12 (see figure 1 ).
Referring now to figure 3, inner door 28 is preferably formed from a steel sheet 43 mounted within frame 45. Steel sheet 43 has a plurality of apertures 47 formed thereon to transform the sheet into a strong screen. Apertures 47 are dimensioned to be too small to insert a finger or small object, but large enough to permit a user to visually inspect what is on the other side of the screen. Frame 45 should be provided with a lock mechanism 25 for securely locking the screen door in place.
Referring now to figure 4, a vertical gun stock rack for use with the weapons storage locker will consist of a flat horizontal sheet 49 having webs 54. Sheet 49 and webs 54 attach to a back vertical wall 56. As in all the other racks to be used with the weapons storage locker, vertical wall 56 has tabs 58 and 60 and apertures 62. Sheet 49 has a plurality of gun stock retaining grooves 51 dimensioned and configured to receive the stock portion of a rifle or shot gun (not shown). Sleeves 52 may be mounted withing grooves 51 to protect the gun stock.
Referring now to figure 5, an alternate vertical gun stock rack 64 is shown.
Gun stock rack 64 has flat sheet 66 with grooves 67 formed thereon. Sheet 66 is mounted to vertical wall 70 by web portions 68. Vertical wall 70 has a plurality of tabs 72 and 74 and apertures 76. Rack 64 is provided with floor board 78 which is mounted to sheet 66. Grooves 67 are dimensioned to receive the stock portions of a short rifle or shot gun (not shown) and floor board 78 forms a rest upon which the butt of the rifle or shot guns (not shown) may rest. Rack 64 is particularly useful 1 S for use with shorter length rifles or shot guns which are to be stored in a vertical orientation.
Referring back to figures 6a and 6b, gun barrel racks 40a and 40b should be used if rifles or shotguns are to be stored vertically in the weapons locker. Racks 40a and 40b have brackets 80 and 82, respectively, with grooves 84 formed thereon. Grooves 84 are dimensioned to receive the gun barrel portion of a rifle or shot gun (not shown). Sleeves 86 may be provided to prevent damage to the gun barrel.
Referring now to figure 7, bracket 42 may be used to store handguns (not shown) or ammunition (not shown) in the weapons locker. Bracket 42 consists of a housing 86 attached to vertical wall 88. Vertical wall 88 has tabs 90 and 92 and apertures 94.
Housing 86 is dimensioned to receive the items to be stored. Similarly, figure 8 shows a different sized storage bracket 96 having housing 98 attached to vertical wall 100. Tabs 102 and 104 and aperture 106 are formed on vertical wall 100. Housing 98 is dimensioned to receive the item to be stored (not shown).
Referring now to figure 9, a sliding shelf unit 106 may also be mounted within the weapons locker. Shelf unit 106 consists of a shelf 108 slidingly attached to mounting brackets 110 and 112 my means known generally in the art. Brackets 110 and 112 have vertical walls 114, upon which are formed tabs 116 and apertures 118.
Referring now to figures 10a and l Ob, it is often necessary to store shorter rifles or shot guns (not shown) in a horizontal orientation. Racks 38 and 39 are used to store fire arms in a horizontal orientation. Gun stock rack 39 consists of a flat sheet of steel 120 having grooves 124 formed thereon. Sheet 120 is mounted to vertical wall 130 which has tabs 132 and 134 formed thereon. Grooves 124 are dimensioned to receive the stock or butt portion of the firearm (not 1 S shown). Sleeves 126 are provided to protect the firearm. Rack 38 is formed from sheet 136 which has grooves 138 formed thereon. Sheet 136 is mounted to vertical wall 142 which has tabs 144 and aperture 146. Vertical wall and sheet 136 may be made from a single piece of metal. Grooves 138 are dimensioned to receive the barrel portion of the firearm. Grooves 124 on sheet 120 and grooves 138 on sheet 136 are dimensioned and configured such that grooves 124 are aligned with grooves 13 8 when the racks are mounted within the weapons locker. T'he firearms (not shown) are stored horizontally within the racks by placing the firearms with the aligned grooves.
Referring back to figure 1, the combination of mounting wall 30 with multiple racks and brackets permits the user to design the storage configuration of the weapons locker. By simply re-positioning the racks and brackets, the storage locker can be configured to securely hold a variety of dii~erent sized weapons in both a horizontal and vertical orientation. The configuration can easily and quickly be changed simply by re-positioning the racks and brackets as the need arises. The locking inner door 28 also permits the storage locker to be securely locked while at the same time allowing for a visual inspection of the locker contents. This is particularly important since it allows for a quick visual inspection without leaving the weapons unsecured or unlocked.
A specific embodiment of the present invention has been disclosed; however, several variations of the disclosed embodiment could be envisioned as within the scope of this invention.
It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
