Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for converting a weapon for simulated shooting ge ass preamble of claim 1.
- a device of the type mentioned is known, for example, from US-A-3 938 262.
- the device contains a training cartridge which can be inserted into the weapon and which emits a trigger signal in the form of an explosion wave or a light beam when a firing pin is struck.
- a shot signal transmitter which can be attached to the front end of the barrel of the weapon by means of an adapter and which is used to emit a shot signal as a function of the trigger signal.
- the explosion as well as the light signal propagates at a much higher speed in the barrel of the weapon and triggers a shot signal on the shot signal transmitter than is the case with the bullet fired with normal ammunition.
- the movements of the shooter with the weapon which are common during normal shooting with live ammunition, such as the tearing of the weapon, cannot be fully taken into account.
- the simulated shooting thus delivers a result that is unrealistic.
- the optical shot axis of the shot signal transmitter is arranged coaxially to the axis of the barrel, which results in a large distance from the sighting axis of the weapon. This means that this weapon can only target a very specific distance are shot when the sighting axis and the optical shot axis of the shot signal transmitter converge and intersect.
- the laser beam hits too low, i.e. the shot signal.
- the hit situation is too high.
- the distance-dependent vertical offset can therefore be negative or positive.
- the distance between the sighting axis and the optical shot axis of the shot signal transmitter results in a misjudgment if the gun is not held by the shooter in such a way that the optical shot axis and the sighting axis are exactly vertically above one another.
- the axis offset and the angle between the barrel axis and the sighting axis are different for different weapons, so that the use of the shot signal transmitter for different weapons leads to different results.
- the object of the invention is to design a device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that simulated shooting that is as realistic as possible is possible.
- the object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of claim 1. It has been found that firing with live ammunition on a weapon can best be simulated if the trigger signal emitted by the practice cartridge is at the speed of sound in air along the Runs up to the shot signal transmitter. The transmission of the shot signal at the shot signal transmitter then corresponds to the actual behavior of the weapon when firing a normal shot. Regardless of the length of the barrel, the runtime of the trigger signal corresponds approximately to the runtime of a bullet through the barrel, so that the shot signal is sent to the shot signal transmitter at about the same time as the bullet when firing with live ammunition would leave the gun. Every movement of the weapon caused by the shooter during the Barrel of a bullet in the barrel of the weapon, such as the so-called ripping of the weapon, is also taken into account realistically in simulated shooting.
- the trigger signal can be generated in a variety of ways, such as by an acoustic signal generator in the training cartridge ge ass claim 2.
- a particularly simple embodiment of the training cartridge describes claim 3, wherein a piston arranged in a cylindrical sleeve of the training cartridge at the rear end as Impact part is formed.
- the piston including the impact part can be made of plastic.
- the training according to claim 4 is expedient.
- the distance between the optical shot axis of the shot signal transmitter and the sighting axis of the weapon can be changed with the aid of the adapter, then this distance can be kept as small as possible or even zero when using the shot signal transmitter on different weapons.
- the distance can be adjusted in steps or continuously. On the one hand, this reduces the error rate when firing at targets of different distances and when the weapon is not recognized. In addition, this error rate can be kept practically the same for different weapons. This significantly improves the hit rate in simulated shooting and errors that arise can be compensated or taken into account in a simpler manner on the one hand by the shooter and on the other hand by the target device or any evaluation device.
- a particularly simple solution describes claim 5, since a pipe socket of the shot signal transmitter to be inserted into the barrel of a weapon, depending on the weapon, is inserted into a corresponding step opening of the shot signal transmitter is to be used, which allows the smallest distance between the optical shot axis of the shot signal transmitter to the sighting axis. Unused entry openings in the housing of the shot signal transmitter can be closed gas-tight, for example, by means of a simple screw.
- an embodiment of the device according to claim 6 is particularly advantageous since the housing of the shot signal transmitter can then be kept smaller than would be necessary for an existing axis offset between the sighting axis and the barrel axis.
- an embodiment according to claim 5 or 7 is advantageous.
- a design of the shot signal transmitter according to claim 8 is particularly expedient since the distance between the shot axis and the sighting axis can then be kept particularly small, the development according to claim 9 reducing the distance to zero and the design according to claim 10 practically zero.
- the design of the device according to claim 11 enables a further fine-tuning of the shot signal transmitter on the one hand with regard to the basic tuning and on the other hand also with regard to the adjustment to a corresponding weapon.
- Claim 12 describes a particularly simple design of the actuating device with regard to the construction and handling, the fine stripping being further improved by the design according to claim 13.
- Claim 14 describes a particularly simple embodiment.
- a development of the device according to claim 15 is particularly advantageous, as a result of which it can be ensured that a hit on a target device is only evaluated if a shot on the weapon is detected on the target device and / or evaluation device.
- the shot detector is designed according to claim 16.

- FIG. 5 shows the arrangement of Figure 4 in section
- Figure 6 shows a practice cartridge in longitudinal section
- Figure 7 shows a second shot signal generator
- Figure 8 shows a third shot signal generator in
- FIG. 1 shows a system for simulated firing with a weapon 2 at a target device 4, which is connected to an evaluation device 6 for displaying the hits.
- a pistol is used here as a weapon, which is provided with a device for simulated shooting.
- the device contains a training cartridge 8, which is arranged in the barrel and / or cartridge chamber of the weapon. If a trigger is fired at a trigger 10 of the weapon, a firing pin 12 strikes the training cartridge 8 and triggers a trigger signal which continues along the barrel at the speed of sound in air and is received by a shot signal transmitter 14 and for triggering a shot signal along the optical shot axis 16 is used.
- the shot signal transmitter has a housing 18 on which an adapter 20 for attaching the shot signal transmitter 14 to the weapon 2 is arranged.
- the housing contains various entry openings 22, 22a, 22b, 22c, one above the other, into which the adapter can be inserted in order to set the distance A between a sighting axis 24 of the weapon and the optical firing axis 16 of the shot signal transmitter 14, that is, to keep it as small as possible can.
- the adapter 20 is designed as a pipe socket 26 which is inserted coaxially into the barrel 28 of the weapon 2, specifically in such a way that the barrel axis 30 and the optical shot axis 16 of the shot signal transmitter coincide.
- the shot signal transmitter 14 is equipped with a shot detector 34, which has a transmitter 36 arranged on the top or, as shown, on the underside of the housing 18, which cooperates with a slave 38 arranged underneath, which is connected to a control part 40 of the target device 4 .
- the transmitter 36 which preferably operates in the infrared wave range, generates a signal each time a shot signal is sent out at the shot signal transmitter 14.
- the control part 40 only signals a hit on the evaluation device 6 when the receiver 38 receives a shot cancellation signal and practically at the same time the target device 4 receives a shot signal. This ensures that hits that are generated by a third-party shooter at the target device 4 are not evaluated at the target device 4 or evaluation device 6, because the third-party shooter cannot generate a shot-off signal at the receiver 38.
- This is achieved, for example, by the shot cancel signal generated by the shot detector either being bundled relatively closely, for example in a cone of 14 °, in order not to trigger an adjacent taker even in different shooting positions (standing, lying, kneeling), or a specific property for Example frequency, which differs from the shot detector of the neighboring shooting range.
- FIGS 2 and 3 show details of the shot signal generator 14.
- This contains as a light transmitter a laser insert 42 from a laser diode 44, which preferably works in the infrared range, and a collimator 46 to generate a parallel, limited beam path for the shot signal.
- the laser insert has a support ring 48 with a spherically shaped support surface 50, which is supported on a correspondingly shaped counter ring 52 in the housing, so that the laser insert 42 is held pivotably.
- a spring 54 serves to pretension the laser insert 42 against the counter ring 52.
- the laser insert 42 is also equipped with an adjusting device 56 in order to be able to adjust the laser insert 42 with respect to its optical firing axis 16.
- the positioning direction has a rearward arranged on the laser insert 42 cylindrical mandrel 58 which cooperates with two actuators 60,62, the axes 64,66 of which are aligned perpendicular to the mandrel axis 68.
- Each actuator 60, 62 consists of a conical part 70 which interacts with the mandrel 58.
- the tapered end of the conical part 70 is closed by a head part 72, which preferably serves as a guide for the actuator in order to compensate for any thread tolerances.
- the thickened end of the conical part 70 merges into a threaded part 74, by means of which each actuator 60, 62 is arranged in a threaded bore 76 of the housing 18.
- the springs 54, 78 which serve to pretension the laser insert 42 and the mandrel 58 are formed by corresponding arms of a leaf spring 80 which is fastened in the housing 18 by means of a screw 82.
- the housing also contains a circuit board 84 which contains the electrical and electronic components for operating the shot signal transmitter 14, which are not described in any more detail, such as a pressure sensor which responds to the trigger signal of the training cartridge.
- FIG. 2 also shows the transmitter 36 of the shot detector 34.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 show the arrangement of the shot signal transmitter 14 by means of an adapter 20a designed as a holder 86.
- the holder includes an arm 88, which by means of a Clamping ring 90 and a clamping screw 92 can be fastened to the outside of the barrel 28a of a weapon.
- a second arm 96 which is arranged essentially at right angles to the first arm 88, projects vertically upward and contains a stop surface 98 for attaching the shot signal transmitter 14.
- a screw 100 is screwed into the entry opening 22a of the shot signal transmitter via an opening 102 in the arm 96 and holds it on the arm firmly.
- a lower entry opening 22c of the shot signal transmitter communicates with a channel 104 in the arm 96, into which a waveguide 106 is inserted.
- the waveguide is designed as a hose and its part facing away from the arm 96 is inserted into the barrel 28a in order to transmit the trigger signal which occurs when the shot is triggered into the shot signal generator 14.
- the relatively large axis offset V between the barrel axis 30a and the sighting axis 24a is reduced to the small distance A of the optical firing axis 16 from the sighting axis 24a.
- a preferred practice cartridge 8 is shown in FIG. It contains a cylindrical sleeve 110 with a front through opening 112 for the exit of a trigger signal.
- a piston 114 is slidably disposed in the sleeve 110.
- the piston is preferably made of plastic, such as a polyacetal plastic sold under the "Delrin" brand.
- a spring 116 biases the piston 114 against a rear stop 118 of the sleeve 110.
- an impact part 120 is present in the piston 114, which can also be made of plastic, possibly the same plastic as the piston, or of another material, preferably metal.
- the piston 114 When the firing pin strikes the impact part, the piston 114 is jerkily moved forward against the force of the spring 116 and thereby generates a trigger signal in the form of a pressure wave, which emerges through the passage opening 112 and strikes the shot signal transmitter 14 in air at the speed of sound in air continues.
- This configuration has the great advantage that the term of the trigger gersignales roughly corresponds to the runtime of a bullet through the barrel, so that the timing of the shot signal at the shot signal generator coincides with the exit of the bullet from the barrel, whereby any movement of the weapon caused by the shooter is taken into account, which occurs between the firing of the shot and the bullet is released from the weapon.
- the practice cartridge has the further advantage that it has an extremely simple structure, since it does not require any electronic components.
- Triggering the shot signal transmitter via such a trigger signal has the further advantage that the weapon actually only responds to the triggering of the shot, that is to say the trigger signal, and not to any other blows triggered, for example, by reloading, releasing or leaning the weapon against an object .
- the device for simulated shooting or the weapon equipped with this device is thus insensitive to external influences.
- FIG. 7 shows a further shot signal transmitter 14a, in which the light transmitter insert, which is designed as a laser insert 42a, is arranged vertically.
- the optical shot signal emerging along the optical axis 122 is deflected into the optical shot axis 123 by means of the deflection device 124 located in the sight axis 24b, which is designed as a semi-transparent mirror 126, preferably inclined at 45 °, so that it coincides with the sight axis 24b.
- the deflection device 124 located in the sight axis 24b, which is designed as a semi-transparent mirror 126, preferably inclined at 45 °, so that it coincides with the sight axis 24b.
- FIG. 8 shows a further shot signal transmitter 14b, the light transmitter insert 42b of which is also oriented vertically.
- the light transmitter insert 42b contains, as the deflection device 124a, a glass rod 128 which is arranged in the optical axis 122a of the light transmitter insert and has a deflection surface 130 which is ground and mirrored at approximately 45 ° at the upper end.
- the glass rod 128 ends directly under the sight axis 24b, so that the shot signal emerging via the glass rod 128 along the optical axis 122a is deflected at the deflection surface 130 into the shot axis 123a practically parallel to the sighting axis 24b and is only a very small distance from it.
- FIG. 9 shows a further adjusting device 56a for the mandrel 58 of a light transmitter insert.
- the actuators 60a, 62a contain actuating heads 132, 134 at the front ends, which are aligned perpendicular to the actuator axes 64a, 66a and form an angle of 90 ° with one another.
- a spring 78a presses the mandrel 58 against the actuating heads 132, 134.
