Definitions

  • the invention relates to a weapon with authorization system. firing, this weapon including a firing mechanism with a trigger and other parts, the system authorization including an electrical control element capable of cooperating with a part of the firing mechanism so as to prevent or allow arming as the case may be of this mechanism.
  • the element of electrical control is an electrical solenoid commanding a core forming a stop which can block the rod control which is connected to the trigger and which carries the hook cooperating with the trigger.
  • the electrical control element is powered by a current source through a device electronic control so that the item electric puts the stop in the unlocked position when coded signal, identifying a shooter authorized to shoot with the weapon is received by a radio wave transceiver to which the control device is connected.
  • control device and the supply of the element of electrical control are activated as soon as the shooter actuates a switch starting the system laser sighting electronics.
  • Such a system with an electric control element commanding a stop blocking the firing mechanism requires relatively high energy consumption and is especially of limited reliability.
  • the stop blocks the control rod and thus prevents actuation of the trigger. It is therefore not excluded than a shooter pulling the trigger with high force manages to force the firing or breaking mechanism or distort the stop.
  • the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and to provide a weapon with a fire authorization system which is more reliable and whose electrical control element can be done in a way that consumes little energy.
  • control element electric is a disconnection element that can disconnect a mechanical part from the ignition mechanism or prevent the connection of this part if it is already disconnected, thus preventing the movement of the trigger can arm this firing mechanism.
  • the electrical control element ensures disconnection without preventing movement of the relaxation.
  • the electrical control element is connected to an electronic control system checking whether certain conditions are met.
  • This control system may include means identification of an authorized shooter and / or the means of recognition of a place and / or means of control of environmental parameters.
  • the aforementioned means of identification may include a device transmitting an identification signal carried by an authorized shooter, the control device being able to check this signal.
  • the weapon part of which is shown in the figures, is a pistol, comprising a carcass 1 in which is mounted a firing mechanism of which only the trigger 2, the control rod 3 and striker hook 4 are represented.
  • the trigger 2 pivots around an axis 5 mounted in the carcass 1 and is pivotally connected by a pin 6 to a end of the control rod 3 of which the other end forms a hook 3A which can cooperate with the hook 4 of the striker.
  • the control rod 3 is supported with its edge upper cut on a pin 7 mounted on the carcass 1, while a spring, not shown, surrounding the axis 6, forces the control rod 3 to move away from the trigger 2, so that when moving backwards of the trigger 2, the end forming the hook 3A is moves, in a first movement, normally towards the high under the action of the spring after which in a second movement, it moves towards the front of the weapon.
  • control rod 3 forming the hook 3A is located opposite an electrical control element, that is to say an electromagnet 8 which can attract the rod 3 when powered by a current source 9, for example batteries, and so prevent the above first upward movement.
  • an electrical control element that is to say an electromagnet 8 which can attract the rod 3 when powered by a current source 9, for example batteries, and so prevent the above first upward movement.
  • This feeding takes place through a system control electronics 10 checking whether certain conditions are met.
  • this control system 10 then comprising means of identification consisting in the example given in a device 11 for transmitting an identification signal carried by a shooter, the control device being able to check this signal.
  • the electric control element 8, the current source 9 and the control system 10 therefore form a system authorization system, this system works as follows:
  • FIG. 1 the weapon and the authorization system are shown in the rest position.
  • the end forming the hook 3A of the control rod 3 is in its lower position, close to the electromagnet 8 which is not powered.
  • the control system 10 As soon as the trigger 2 is pressed or in another way, the control system 10 is activated and it checks whether the conditions are met to authorize the shooting, i.e. if a correct signal is received from the device transmitter 11.
  • control system prevents the supply of the electromagnet 8.
  • control system 10 allows the supply of the electromagnet 8. As a result, the latter attracts the control rod 3 which remains disconnected.
  • trigger 2 The normal movement of trigger 2 remains possible but has no effect. Since the firing mechanism is disconnected, no part of this mechanism can be forced.
  • One such condition is recognition of a place or a geographical location. If the control system 10 does not not recognize a specific place, the electromagnet 8 will cause disconnection or prevent connection of the control triangle 3.
  • the control system 10 can also be constructed from in order to control environmental parameters, for example example light, in which case shooting can be prevented when there is insufficient light.
  • the firing mechanism can be of a construction different from that described and that the electromagnet 8 can control other parts disconnectable from the firing mechanism.
  • a part can be moved to cause disconnection, for example an axis around which another piece pivots.
