Definitions

  • the invention relates to a handgun with a handle, a device identifying the shooter and controlled by this safety device that keeps the weapon secured in case of missing or unsuccessful identification and this releases only in the case of a successful identification for the shot.
  • Finger or handprint scanning systems have already been proposed; however, these are unsuitable when the user is wearing a glove or bandage on the hand, or when the hand is soiled with paint, oil or mud.
  • US 6,185,852 B1 shows an identification and a safety device, which are accommodated in a separate housing and the latter is housed in the handle of the weapon.
  • the entire module is either glued to the gun handle or included as an integral part in the weapon handle.
  • the content of this document contains the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • US 5,896,691 also includes a module containing the identification and security device attached to the weapon frame is attached.
  • the housing may be attached to a weapon handle portion and forms an essential part of an outside of the weapon on the weapon handle portion. It is so housed in the weapon body that it forms one side of the magazine shaft.
  • the module is attached to the weapon so that it can only be removed by specialized personnel.
  • US 5,915,936 shows an identification device which is mounted as a palm sensor on the two outer sides of the weapon handle. Essentially, it recognizes the weapon hand embracing the weapon handle and thus identifies the shooter via its characteristic hand shape.
  • US 5,946,840 also shows an identification device and a safety device which are integrated into the weapon grip of a weapon.
  • WO 98/55817 shows a weapon with electronically ignitable ammunition, which also includes an identification device.
  • the entire electronics for identifying the shooter and for triggering the electronically flammable ammunition can be present as an interchangeable slot, which can be inserted into the gun handle in magazine form.
  • the invention has the object to find another weapon with identification device.
  • the entire identification device and also the preferred electromagnetic control of the safety device are thus located in a module.
  • This training is initially for users the weapons of the above category b), meaning users who share a common service weapon.
  • each user has his own module and he receives at the beginning of the service a weapon without a module.
  • this weapon becomes, as it were, his own weapon, which only identifies him and records only the shots fired by him.
  • the electronics of the existing weapon needs to be reprogrammed because each man has his own electronics in his module. It is also possible to use any of several identical weapons, if about once a weapon should come into the maintenance or repair. Because every weapon can become a personal weapon assigned to a specific employee with the module.
  • the weapons with identifiers which correspond approximately to their serial number and to record the identifier in the module. So can be derived from the record of the module and the individual weapon that has led to the module associated man at a given time.
  • the module forms the handle back. In this case, it may form a part of the magazine shaft (for example in self-loading pistols) towards the front, so that a magazine identifier can be read and insertion of the magazine can be used to generate electricity.
  • the module can optionally protrude upwards over the hand holding the grip and carry the sensor for the iris recognition.
  • the handle back can now optionally with the identification device against another handle back with a be replaced other or without identification device.
  • the power supply for the identificatins worn and optionally for the magnetic drive for actuating the safety device provides according to a preferred embodiment (claim 2) a power storage, which may be a conventional accumulator, but also about a capacitor. It is not important for the capacitor to store the current over as long a period as possible, but to be reliably available for storing electricity over a very long period of time (decades).
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention are not long-term batteries or rechargeable batteries used, but a short memory of the type mentioned, for charging the relative movement of two parts of the weapon is used. These mentioned parts are then assigned, for example, to a conductor or a magnetic field whose relative movement induces a current in the conductor. This is then stored only for a short time, but sufficient for the usual period of use to provide the electrical / electronic device or the security device with power.
  • a weapon of this type has the advantage that it can remain unused for years as a domestic weapon, and yet it can be used immediately, since the relatively moving parts have supplied the weapon with the required electrical power before startup.
  • These relatively movable parts may preferably be the magazine and the handle (claim 4). Because the magazine anyway, with a strong jerk in the magazine shaft is pushed to ensure a reliable engagement, it is irrelevant if this movement requires a greater amount of force than usual, because this movement is used to generate electricity. In addition, the storage of the weapon is made even safer, because the user is caused to keep the magazine outside the weapon. For since the insertion of the magazine required for the commissioning of the weapon, the magazine would, it would remain in the gun, removed only before the operation of the weapon and reintroduced.
  • the relatively movable parts can also be advantageously formed on the one hand by the handle and on the other hand by the closure or parts which are movable together with this (claim 5).
  • the first load of a self-loading pistol would generate their necessary power, but the power storage would continue to charge each recharging or recharged.
  • this training promotes the safety of the weapon, since the weapon is not stored with a cartridge in the chamber, but in any case must be charged before the first shot - provided that the power storage is not already charged.
  • Relatively moving parts can, however, also be, for example, a movable fore-end or a revolver drum whose rotation activates the identification device during the first tightening.
  • the said power storage but can also be provided only as additional facilities for emergency, together with conventional batteries or batteries for normal operation, which are then charged, as in a watch company, before each shift as usual.
  • a piezoelectric element such as a quartz, provided in the shock loads that occur during firing, are converted into electrical voltage and ultimately into electrical current, which is introduced into the power storage (claim 6) ,
  • the piezoelectric quartz can be acted upon by the closure, by the closing spring or by the combustion gases or a gas piston driven by these;
  • the recoil energy is used, which the quartz is exposed to when shooting, if it is housed anywhere on the weapon and preferably in the handle.
  • identification codes such as a PIN (personal identification number)
  • PIN personal identification number
  • an identification tag is arranged on the magazine, which can be read by the weapon during insertion of the grip (claim 7).
  • This training is particularly important for weapons of the above category b).
  • a magazine is output to each employee of a plant protection company who bears an identification identifying the corresponding employee.
  • the weapons to be used for a shift are programmed before the shift to the identifiers of the employees assigned to the shift. If a magazine is now inserted into one of the weapons, it is only released when the magazine carries the ID of an employee assigned to the shift.
  • This employee can also be stored in the electronics of the weapon so that one can determine later, which employee has led the weapon.
  • This type of magazine identification has a significant advantage: the identifier can be read with absolute accuracy not only with relative accuracy (resolution), such as in the case of fingerprint identification or the like. There remains no residual uncertainty in any case.
  • the magazine identification can also be coupled with other identification methods.
  • the resolution of the other identification can be reduced if the magazine identification is correct. If, for example, a weapon is loaded with a magazine that is not or incorrectly marked, the resolution of the other identification devices is increased. The result is that a shooter who is forced to use a foreign magazine can use the weapon set up for him, but only after a longer and more accurate identification of his peculiar characteristics. It may then also be necessary for him to wash his hands before using the weapon when his finger or Handabdrükke be checked.
  • the magazine has an appropriate identifier
  • the other identification methods can be coarsened and thus also shortened.
  • the identifying means comprises a microphone (claim 8).
  • This microphone is used for sound detection and can record about a whistle with a special whistle that belongs to the weapon and whose frequency leads to the release of the weapon or contributes.
  • a tone sequence from a tone generator can be recorded by the microphone and sent to the evaluation, similar to remote answering machines.
  • the microphone can also detect the sound of fired shots and supply their number to a memory in which they are assigned and stored at about the time of the shots.
  • the microphone is coupled to a voice and / or voice (word) recognition device (claim 9).
  • a voice and / or voice (word) recognition device (claim 9).
  • This device recognizes a speaking voice or a spoken word by comparison with a voice frequency course or a stored word or with a plurality of stored words.
  • the identification device is capable of learning, so it always adapts to the changing voice of the user over time.
  • an adaptive device it is useful immediately after the acquisition of a weapon in the first few days to unlock them by means of spoken commands, it will be noted that the detection device is more reliable until it is completely reliable.
  • the microphone is preferably provided with a recording device which records at least the last shots (claim 11), preferably in association with other data, in particular about the time (claim 12) and / or the identification of the shooter (claim 13 ).
  • the recording capacity can be relatively small, so that only the last few dozen shots are recorded. For example, it is easier to clarify an incident in which firing was fired with guns than was previously possible.
  • said electronics may have a timer. But it is better a radio-controlled clock, the radio pauses bridged by intrinsic function, but when restored wireless connection about occurred errors immediately corrected automatically again (claim 12). The recorded time is always correct in this case.
  • the recording device can also be designed so that all events are stored which have significance for the function of the weapon (claim 14). So it is possible, the maintenance or the necessary shutdown of the individual weapon much better than before, with the history of the weapon to couple, as was previously possible. For example, if only one and the same pistol is used by the many self-loading pistols of an infantry battalion for practice shooting, then this pistol is exposed to unusual and unexpected loads. So far, this could hardly be determined, so that it sometimes came to failures. With the recording according to the invention, the value of the total load of a weapon can be retrieved at any time, and the weapon can be taken out of service, before it comes to material fatigue.
  • the described speech and speech recognition is primarily for weapons of the aforementioned categories a), b) and d) of importance, in their use, there are cases in which not over the intended sighting, but instinctively shot out of the hip must become.
  • category c) sports weapons
  • the shooter basically puts the weapon in the correct position before the shot.
  • the weapon is unlocked only when it is in the attack, not only to prevent the use of unauthorized persons, but also to avoid safety problems when depositing and handling the weapon.
  • the invention proposes a measuring device for iris recognition, with an optical probe and optionally also with a small infrared headlamp (claim 15). These two elements may be located at the top of the back of the handle and aligned such that the optical axes of these devices intersect each other and the sight line at arm's length behind the weapon.
  • Iris recognition devices have already been developed to the point of operational readiness, for example for use in door opening systems or in check card or ATM machines. There are numerous publications that the expert can call on.
  • the module has at least the control for the safety device.
  • the control is preferably designed so that the weapon is automatically secured after removal of the module and remains secured until a new module is used and after successful identification of the weapon activated (claim 16).
  • the safety device may be about a trained on the weapon, spring-loaded slide, which engages in its rest position in the spring guide rod of the striker and this determines.
  • the controller may be an electromagnet which is mounted in the module and moves the slider out of its rest position if the identification was successful.
  • a private citizen who sets off on a hunting expedition can equip his weapon with such an empty module in order to immediately have the weapon ready for immediate use without an identification routine.
  • Even a home defense weapon that should be used by several people, may have a dummy module, as far as
  • the weapon can not fall into the hands of unauthorized persons.
  • the manufacturer of such a weapon which he offers with identification device, from the product liability, if the customer after the purchase of the weapon in turn then an empty module installed, but the weapon is insufficiently kept, so that an unauthorized person causes damage ,
  • a dummy module but also a module is understood that is completely dysfunctional and does not unlock the weapon.
  • a dummy module it is possible to exhibit weapons in a shop window, to hand over to a customer for viewing or to use as a room decoration at home.
  • theft of the weapon by an unauthorized person is not excluded. Nevertheless, the unauthorized person will not be able to use this weapon because it is secured and he can not unlock it.
  • a whole range of different modules can be offered, which take into account each purpose of the weapon and all legal requirements.
  • a defective module can be sent, for example, the manufacturer or maintenance company, without having to take precautions for transport.
  • the weapon can be retrofitted with a new module, such as in the future further refined identification devices be available.
  • the basic weapon has the same model, so that the production is simplified and cheapened, no matter how different the modules may be.
  • claim 18 is arranged on the back of such a module, a touch sensor which is coupled to the securing device and secures the weapon or even deletes the identification when the weapon is handed out of hand.
  • the weapon is therefore particularly suitable for the above-mentioned category b).
  • the touch sensor may be a mechanical sensor such as a conventional handball safety device or an electrical / electronic touch sensor.
  • the invention succeeds to build a universal and expandable weapon, in which the actual basic model remains virtually unchanged, while the security components according to the respective state of the art, according to legal requirements and the need of the customer - even in hindsight - are modifiable.
  • the module 1 may also be a dummy module and after attachment to the gun, the security device of the weapon either permanently secured or permanently secure.
  • the magazine when inserted into the magazine slot, may generate a surge that provides power to operate the identification device and the fuse controller.
  • There may also be a piezoelectric quartz, which each emits a shock due to the recoil of each shot, so that the gun no battery o. The like. Needed.
  • a touch sensor may be arranged.
  • the module 1 can also extend further upwards and have a sensor for detecting irises on the upper rear side.
