Definitions
- the present invention relates to a modular shooting range comprising a plurality of interconnecting units, each constituted by either a shipping container, a construction comprising shipping container parts, or an engineered construction.
- Known shooting ranges generally comprise permanent facilities constructed on site. These shooting ranges may be either constructed outdoors or indoors. For outdoor shooting ranges permanent shooting stations, target areas, bullet stops, etc. are constructed on a large area of land. Although these outdoor shooting ranges are construed with safety being the primary consideration, still bystanders or participants may be hurt by bullets or the like flying around as these bullets may not be captured by a bullet trap system.
- Indoor shooting ranges are usually construed inside a building structure like a bunker or the like. These indoor shooting ranges are typically closed, i.e. surrounded by walls capable of withstanding the impact of bullets fired. A disadvantage of such indoor shooting ranges is that they are stationary, and therefore non-flexible.
- a known shooting range system is further disclosed in European patent application EP 2 698 480.
- two or more pre-engineered shipping containers are disclosed, wherein each shipping container constitutes a firing lane. That is, the length of the elongated shipping container is used as the firing direction, wherein a user shoots from one end inside the shipping container towards targets installed at the other end inside the shipping container.
- a modular shooting range comprised of a plurality of interconnecting units, said interconnecting units each constituted by an elongated shipping container, said interconnecting units comprising:
- one front unit being at least substantially open at only one of the opposite long sides thereof, wherein said front unit comprises a conditioning system for providing an air flow in said modular shooting range,
- one bullet trap unit comprising a bullet trap system arranged for trapping bullets fired, said bullet trap unit being at least substantially open at only one of the opposite long sides thereof,
- each of said plurality of extension units being at least substantially open at both of the opposite long sides thereof,
- interconnecting units are connected to each other via said open long sides, and wherein said plurality of extension units are arranged between said front unit and said bullet trap unit thereby forming a substantially closed, air-tight shooting range such that said air flow from said conditioning system is laminar across said shooting range.
- the present invention is based on the insight that a flexible, non- stationary modular shooting range is provided in case it is construed by a plurality of interconnecting units, i.e. one front unit, one bullet trap unit and a plurality of extension units.
- a modular shooting range may be construed of any length.
- the modular shooting range is especially advantageous for situations where temporary or semi-permanent shooting ranges are desired, or where special trainings facilities are required.
- the modular shooting range may be deployed in situations where an existing, indoor, shooting range is being renovated or otherwise cannot be used.
- the interconnecting units are prefabricated units, meaning that these units merely need to be connected to each other for creating said shooting range.
- each of the interconnecting units do not need to be assembled as such.
- the interconnecting units merely need to be connected to each other.
- an airtight shooting range is created.
- the advantage hereof is that the air flow from the conditioning system is laminar across the shooting range. This means that the flow rate is uniform over the width and the height of the shooting range.
- the length of the modular shooting range may be extended or shortened by adding, or removing, extension units.
- the width of these shipping containers units are about 2 - 3 meters, such that the length of the modular shooting range system may be amended by lengths of these 2 - 3 meters.
- the total length of the modular shooting range is usually around 20 - 50 meters, such that about 7 - 18 extension units may be interconnected via their open long sides to provide for such a total length.
- An advantage of the modular shooting range according to the present invention is that even after the shooting range is installed, the length thereof may be amended by removing or adding extension units to the shooting range.
- a further advantage of the present invention is that, due to the modular system and the use of either a shipping container, a construction comprising shipping container parts, or an engineered construction, the transport of the modular shooting range is made more simple.
- the units may be transported by ship, train, truck or the like.
- An even further advantage of the modular shooting range according to the present invention is that the shooting range may be deployed or removed within a short period of time.
- a yet further example of the present invention is that the shooting range may be adapted even when the shooting range has already been deployed. Due to the modularity of the whole system, adding an extension unit, for example, is made relatively simple.
- At least substantially open at only one of the opposite long sides thereof means, in case of a shipping container for example, that one of the long sides of the shipping container is removed. This so called open long side is then used for connecting a further interconnecting unit using an open long side of that further interconnecting unit.
- the term at least substantially open at only one of the opposite long sides thereof further entails that the three sides which are considered not to be open, i.e. the opposite long side, and the two short sides, are substantially closed in such a way that bullets fired can not penetrate via these sides to the outdoors.
- the so called closed sides of the interconnecting units may, for example, comprise a door, window, ventilation vent or the like.
- a door, window, ventilation vent is arranged to be bullet proof.
- the interconnecting units are interconnected to each other via said open long sides in an air-tight manner.
- the interconnecting units may comprise a sealing member, such as a rubber or the like, along a circumference edge of the open long sides.
- a sealing member such as a rubber or the like
- one of these two adjacent interconnecting units may be provided with the sealing member.
- the interconnecting units each comprise coupling means for provided said air-tight coupling between said interconnecting units.
- Various types of coupling means may be provided for creating the air-tight coupling between the interconnecting units, such as a bridge-clamp, twistlock, stacker, or the like.
- the front unit comprises an air ventilation system arranged for providing said shooting range with fresh air.
- the air ventilation system is arranged for providing said fresh air uniformly distributed over a width, and height, of said shooting range.
- the air ventilation system may be arranged for providing said fresh air via a plenum space provided in a ceiling or wall of said front unit, in a continues flow.
- the ventilation system may comprise a heating and/or air conditioning system and/or an air filtering system, optionally with additional fans, which can either cool or heat air that is directed into the interior of the modular shooting range via the plenum space.
- the air, and the gasses and particles generated through the use of the shooting range may be removed from the interior of the shooting range and filtered using a filter and vents comprised in the bullet trap unit or in the back unit at the end of the shooting range.
- a ventilation system thus provides the shooting range with fresh air.
- at least a substantial part of inner sides of two opposite short sides of at least one of said extension units are arranged with bullet resistant material and/or bullet proof material.
- the floor and ceiling of the extension unit may be arranged with bullet resistant material and/or bullet proof material.
- extension units are always arranged to be bullet proof, which means that it is not possible for a bullet to penetrate the closed short sides to the outside.
- the advantage of at least a substantial part of inner sides of the two opposite short sides of the at least one of the extension units are arranged with bullet resistant material and/or bullet proof material is that the modular shooting range may be used for advanced shooting training.
- a person shoots from one side of the shooting range, i.e. standing within the front unit, towards the bullet catcher present at the other side of the shooting range.
- a training sequence may be developed in which the person walks around in the shooting range, and not only shoots bullets towards the bullet catcher, but also to the side, i.e. towards the short sides of the extension units. This provides the benefit, amongst other, that more realistic real time scenario's may be trained.
- the short sides of the extension units may be equipped with a bullet catcher.
- a bullet resistant material is a material capable of stopping or considerable slowing down a bullet, a bullet fragment or similar high velocity projectiles.
- a bullet resistant material may, for example, comprise rubber, synthetic rubber, synthetic materials, synthetic fibers or composite materials.
- a bullet proof material is a material capable of stopping, deforming, fragmenting and/or deflecting a bullet, a bullet fragment or similar high velocity projectiles.
- Bullet proof materials may be complex, such as aramid fibers, polyethylene fibers, poly-carbonate, carbon fiber and other composite materials, or they may be basic and simple, such as titanium or steel. The latter is, for example, already provided by the walls of a shipping container.
- a bullet resistant material may be placed in front of the bullet proof material in order to prevent bullets or bullet fragments, caused by bullets fragmenting on impact on the bullet proof material, to be bounced back into the shooting range.
- an advanced shooting range is construed in case a user is able to freely move along the interior of the shooting range.
- the user is not limited to the interior space provided by the one front unit. This provides the additional benefit that the user may be trained for situations in which he or she is needed to quickly turn, to their left or right, to shoot at targets not provided in the direction right in front of the front unit but also at angles varying from 90 degrees to 180 degrees to even 270 degrees or more in the horizontal plane.
- the shooting range is construed to safely withstand the impact of bullets or projectiles fired into the floor or into the ceiling, i.e. the floor and/or the ceiling may comprise a bullet catcher or bullet trap system.
- the walls are construed to be safely used inside a shooting range and may comprise bullet proof and/or bullet resistant materials.
- targets systems for example reactive targets, static targets, projected targets, video targets and/or momentary targets in the module shooting range.
- a computer system may be provided for the operating of these target systems.
- the bullet trap system comprises a rubber lamella trap or a steel lamella trap or a rubber block trap for dissipating and absorbing a velocity of said bullets fired.
- the bullet trap system is arranged to change the forward inertia and velocity of the fired bullets or projectiles to an extent that allows gravity or mechanical deflection to force the bullets or projectiles to drop into a collecting bin or to absorb the fired bullets or projectiles.
- the interconnecting units further comprise a back unit comprising coupling means for coupling said back unit to said bullet trap unit via a closed long sides of said bullet trap unit, wherein said back unit comprises an air suction system arranged for suctioning air having gasses and particles generated through the use of the shooting range, out of the shooting range.
- the back unit is comprised in the bullet trap unit.
- a utility unit comprises a generator for generating electrical energy wherein the utility unit comprises coupling means for coupling the utility unit to one or more interconnecting units for distributing the generated electrical energy over the shooting range. As such, electricity may be obtained in the interconnecting units due to the subsequent electrical coupling means.
- the interconnecting units further comprise a utility unit comprising coupling means for coupling said utility unit to an interconnecting unit via a long side of said utility unit, wherein said utility unit comprises an generator for generating electrical energy.
