Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Verwahren von Handfeuerwaffen (Faustfeuerwaffen) mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes von Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to a device for storing handguns (handguns) with the features of the preamble of patent claim 1.

Für das Verwahren von Handfeuerwaffen bestehen gesetzliche Bestimmungen, wie Handfeuerwaffen zu verwahren sind, damit Unbefugte keinen Zugang zu Handfeuerwaffen haben und diese nicht benützen können.There are legal regulations governing the storage of handguns as to how handguns should be stored so that unauthorized persons cannot access or use handguns.

Die üblichen versperrbaren Schränke oder Kästchen sind oft an unzugänglichen Stellen vorgesehen, sodass Zugang zu Handfeuerwaffen erhebliche Zeit in Anspruch nimmt.The usual lockable cabinets or boxes are often located in inaccessible places, meaning access to handguns takes considerable time.

Aus WO 2016/134336 A1 , WO 2009/141429 A1 , US 2014/0217137 A1 , US 2016/0377374 A1 , US6301815B1 und US 6 536 151 B1 sind Vorrichtungen zum Verwahren/Aufbewahren von Handfeuerwaffen bekannt, die einen in den Lauf der Handfeuerwaffe einführbaren Stab umfassen. Des weiteren beschreibt die US 8 006 424 B1 eine Halterung für eine geladene Feuerwaffe, welche die Feuerwaffe in einem nicht betätigbaren Zustand mit einem zur Sicherung manuell betätigten Abzugsbügelsicherungsstift sichert. Bei einer möglichen Ausführungsform ist dabei ebenfalls ein Stab in den Lauf der Feuerwaffe eingeführt. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Gattung zur Verfügung zu stellen, die eine sehr sichere Verwahrung gewährleistet und trotz sicherer Verwahrung befugten Personen einen raschen Zugang zu der Handfeuerwaffe erlaubt.Out of WO 2016/134336 A1 , WO 2009/141429 A1 , US 2014/0217137 A1 , US 2016/0377374 A1 , US6301815B1 and US 6,536,151 B1 Devices for storing/storing handguns are known, which include a rod that can be inserted into the barrel of the handgun. Furthermore, it describes US 8,006,424 B1 a holder for a loaded firearm which secures the firearm in a non-operable state with a manually operated trigger guard safety pin. In a possible embodiment, a rod is also inserted into the barrel of the firearm. The invention is based on the object of providing a device of the type mentioned at the outset, which ensures very safe storage and, despite safe storage, allows authorized persons quick access to the handgun.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß mit einer Vorrichtung, die die Merkmale von Anspruch 1 aufweist. Bevorzugte und vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This problem is solved according to the invention with a device which has the features of claim 1. Preferred and advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the subclaims.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wird die Handfeuerwaffe, insbesondere eine Faustfeuerwaffe, wie eine Pistole oder ein Revolver, sicher verwahrt, indem der Lauf der Handfeuerwaffe über den Stab geschoben wird und der vorgeschobene Bolzen den Abzugbügel durchgreift.In the device according to the invention, the handgun, in particular a handgun, such as a pistol or a revolver, is stored safely by pushing the barrel of the handgun over the rod and the advanced bolt passes through the trigger guard.

Da die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung eine Sicherung gegen unbefugtes Auslösen des Zurückschiebens des Bolzens aufweist, ist das Entnehmen der Handfeuerwaffe durch Unbefugte verhindert.Since the device according to the invention has a safeguard against unauthorized triggering of the bolt being pushed back, the removal of the handgun by unauthorized persons is prevented.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung erlaubt es, die Handfeuerwaffe so zu verwahren, dass bei einer Faustfeuerwaffe (Pistole oder Revolver) der Handgriff vorsteht und griffbereit ist, sodass durch Freigeben der Sicherung und nach dem Zurückschieben des den Abzugbügel durchgreifenden Bolzens die Handfeuerwaffe entnommen werden kann und zur Benützung bereit ist.The device according to the invention allows the handgun to be stored in such a way that, in the case of a handgun (pistol or revolver), the handle protrudes and is ready to hand, so that by releasing the safety and after pushing back the bolt passing through the trigger guard, the handgun can be removed and used ready.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Sicherung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung eine Einrichtung zum Eingeben eines Sicherheitscodes und/oder eine Einrichtung zum Erkennen von biometrischen Merkmalen, wie Fingerabdrücke, Gesichter oder Augen (Iris derselben).In a preferred embodiment, the security of the device according to the invention is a device for entering a security code and/or a device for recognizing biometric features, such as fingerprints, faces or eyes (irises thereof).

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung eine Anzeigeeinrichtung, die wenigstens eine in ihr verwahrte Handfeuerwaffe anzeigt, zugeordnet ist.In a further embodiment of the device according to the invention, it can be provided that the device according to the invention is assigned a display device which displays at least one handgun stored in it.

Diese Ausführungsform erlaubt es - wenn beispielsweise in einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung mehrere Handfeuerwaffen sicher verwahrt sind - anzuzeigen, welche Handfeuerwaffen verwahrt sind. Dies ist beispielsweise in Polizeistationen und/oder beim Militär von Bedeutung, weil dann festgestellt werden kann, ob die einer bestimmten Person zugeordnete Handfeuerwaffe verwahrt ist oder entnommen wurde. Bei einer entnommenen Handfeuerwaffe kann auch überprüft werden, ob die Handfeuerwaffe von einer Person, die Dienst hat und die Handfeuerwaffe bei sich tragen soll, entnommen wurde.This embodiment makes it possible - if, for example, several handguns are safely stored in a device according to the invention - to display which handguns are stored. This is important, for example, in police stations and/or in the military, because it can then be determined whether the handgun assigned to a specific person is stored or has been removed. At a The handgun removed can also be checked to see whether the handgun was taken by a person who is on duty and is supposed to be carrying the handgun.

Mit besonderem Vorteil ist gemäß der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass das Vorschieben des Bolzens durch den Sensor, der die Anwesenheit einer Handfeuerwaffe erfasst, ausgelöst wird.It is particularly advantageous according to the invention that the advancing of the bolt is triggered by the sensor, which detects the presence of a handgun.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachstehenden Beschreibung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der Zeichnungen. Es zeigt:

Eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 1 umfasst ein Gehäuse 2, das insbesondere als Stahlgehäuse ausgebildet ist. In dem Gehäuse 2 ist durch einen Gehäuseteil 3 ein gesonderter Raum 4 abgetrennt, in den eine Handfeuerwaffe 5, die im Ausführungsbeispiel eine Pistole ist, (zum Teil) eingesetzt werden kann, wobei - wie dies Fig. 1 zeigt - der Griff 6 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 aus dem Gehäuse 2 vorsteht. In dem Gehäuseteil 3 ist ein Stab 10 vorgesehen, der an einer Wand, insbesondere der Rückwand 19, des Gehäuseteils 3 befestigt ist. Wenn eine Handfeuerwaffe 5 verwahrt ist, greift der Stab 10 in den Lauf 8 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 ein.A device 1 according to the invention comprises a housing 2, which is designed in particular as a steel housing. In the housing 2, a separate space 4 is separated by a housing part 3, into which a handgun 5, which in the exemplary embodiment is a pistol, can (partly) be inserted, whereby - like this Fig. 1 shows - the handle 6 of the handgun 5 protrudes from the housing 2. A rod 10 is provided in the housing part 3 and is fastened to a wall, in particular the rear wall 19, of the housing part 3. When a handgun 5 is stored, the rod 10 engages the barrel 8 of the handgun 5.

Zusätzlich ist ein Bolzen 12 vorgesehen, der (vgl. Fig. 3 und 4) aus einer Bereitschaftsstellung (Fig. 3) in eine Wirkstellung (Fig. 4) vorgeschoben werden kann. In der Wirkstellung ragt der Bolzen 12 vor einem Abzugshebel 13 durch einen Abzugsbügel 14 der eingesetzten Handfeuerwaffe 5, im gezeigten Beispiel der Pistole. Dadurch, dass der Bolzen 12 vor dem Abzugshebel 13 durch den Abzugsbügel 14 vorgeschoben ist, wird verhindert, dass die Handfeuerwaffe 5 entnommen werden kann, weil dies durch den vorgeschobenen Bolzen 12 verhindert wird (Fig. 1 und Fig. 4).In addition, a bolt 12 is provided, which (cf. 3 and 4 ) from a standby position ( Fig. 3 ) in a effective position ( Fig. 4 ) can be advanced. In the active position, the bolt 12 protrudes in front of a trigger lever 13 through a trigger guard 14 of the handgun 5 used, in the example shown the pistol. The fact that the bolt 12 is advanced in front of the trigger lever 13 through the trigger guard 14 prevents the handgun 5 from being removed because this is prevented by the advanced bolt 12 ( Fig. 1 and Fig. 4 ).

Fig. 4 zeigt, dass der Bolzen 12 in seiner Wirkstellung durch Öffnungen 15 und 16 in den Wänden 17 und 18 des Gehäuseteils 3 ragt, sodass er sicher gehalten ist. Fig. 4 shows that the bolt 12 protrudes in its operative position through openings 15 and 16 in the walls 17 and 18 of the housing part 3, so that it is held securely.

Zum Verschieben des Bolzens 12 aus seiner Bereitschaftsstellung (Fig. 3) in seine Wirkstellung (Fig. 4) kann ein beliebig ausgebildeter Antrieb, zum Beispiel ein elektromotorischer Antrieb, vorgesehen sein.To move the bolt 12 from its ready position ( Fig. 3 ) in its effective position ( Fig. 4 ) an arbitrarily designed drive, for example an electric motor drive, can be provided.

In der Rückwand 19 des Gehäuseteils 3, die der Zugangsöffnung 7 des Gehäuseteils 3 gegenüberliegt, ist ein Sensor 20 vorgesehen. Der Sensor 20 ist an der Rückwand 19 des Gehäuseteils 3 unterhalb des Stabes 10 vorgesehen, und erfasst die Anwesenheit einer Handfeuerwaffe 5 im Gehäuseteil 3 der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1. Sobald der Sensor 20 die Anwesenheit einer Handfeuerwaffe 5 erfasst, wird der Bolzen 12 aus seiner Bereitschaftsstellung (Fig. 3) in seine Wirkstellung (Fig. 4) vorgeschoben, sodass die Handfeuerwaffe 5 sicher verwahrt ist, weil der Bolzen 12 durch den Abzugsbügel 14 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 ragt.A sensor 20 is provided in the rear wall 19 of the housing part 3, which lies opposite the access opening 7 of the housing part 3. The sensor 20 is provided on the rear wall 19 of the housing part 3 below the rod 10 and detects the presence of a handgun 5 in the housing part 3 of the device 1 according to the invention. As soon as the sensor 20 detects the presence of a handgun 5, the bolt 12 is moved out of its ready position ( Fig. 3 ) in its effective position ( Fig. 4 ) advanced so that the handgun 5 is safely stored because the bolt 12 protrudes through the trigger guard 14 of the handgun 5.

In dem Gehäuse 2 ist als Energieversorgung ein interner Stromspeicher 21 vorgesehen. Zum Laden des Stromspeichers 21 ist an dem Gehäuse 2 eine Ladebuchse vorgesehen, über die der Stromspeicher 21 aus einem Stromnetz über ein Netzgerät mit elektrischer Energie versorgt und geladen werden kann.An internal power storage 21 is provided in the housing 2 as an energy supply. To charge the power storage 21, a charging socket is provided on the housing 2, via which the power storage 21 can be supplied with electrical energy and charged from a power network via a power supply unit.

Wenn die Vorrichtung 1 über die Ladebuchse mit einem Stromnetz verbunden ist, kann die Sicherung der Vorrichtung 1 auch aktiviert und deaktiviert werden, wenn der interne Stromspeicher 21 vollständig entladen ist.If the device 1 is connected to a power network via the charging socket, the fuse of the device 1 can also be activated and deactivated when the internal power storage 21 is completely discharged.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 1 kann auch mit einem Anschluss für eine externe Stromquelle in Form eines, beispielsweise über Solarzellen aufladbaren, Stromspeichers ("Powerbank") ausgestattet sein. Der Anschluss für die externe Stromquelle kann mit dem Anschluss (Ladebuchse) für ein Ladekabel für den internen Stromspeicher 21 kombiniert sein. Wenn die Vorrichtung 1 mit einer externen Stromquelle verbunden ist, kann die Sicherung der Vorrichtung 1 zum Verwahren einer Handfeuerwaffe 5 aktiviert und zum Entnehmen einer Handfeuerwaffe 5 auch deaktiviert werden, wenn der interne Stromspeicher 21 erschöpft (entladen) ist und ein Stromausfall vorliegt.The device 1 according to the invention can also be equipped with a connection for an external power source in the form of a power storage device (“power bank”), for example rechargeable via solar cells. The connection for the external power source can be combined with the connection (charging socket) for a charging cable for the internal power storage 21. If the device 1 is connected to an external power source, the fuse of the device 1 can be activated to store a handgun 5 and can also be deactivated to remove a handgun 5 when the internal power storage 21 is exhausted (discharged) and there is a power failure.

Innerhalb des Gehäuses 2 ist auch die elektronische Steuereinheit 22, deren Funktion nachstehend noch beschrieben werden wird, vorgesehen.The electronic control unit 22, whose function will be described below, is also provided within the housing 2.

Um für Wartungsarbeiten oder für das Beheben von Störungen Zugang in das Gehäuse 2 zu schaffen, kann eine Zugangsöffnung nach Lösen einer mechanischen Verriegelung, die ein Schloss 23 umfasst, geöffnet werden. Die Zugangsöffnung kann nur mit Hilfe eines (Haupt-) Schlüssels, der von einer befugten Person verwahrt wird, geöffnet werden.In order to provide access to the housing 2 for maintenance work or for troubleshooting, an access opening can be opened after releasing a mechanical lock, which includes a lock 23. The access opening can only be opened with the help of a (master) key that is kept by an authorized person.

Wenn eine befugte Person die Handfeuerwaffe 5, welche - wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt - verwahrt ist, entnehmen will, muss die das Zurückziehen des Bolzens 12 verhindernde Sicherung entsperrt werden. Dies kann durch Eingeben eines Codes über ein Tastenfeld oder durch Erfassen biometrischer Daten (Fingerabdruck, Gesichtserkennung, Iriserkennung) erfolgen. So ist sichergestellt, dass nur die befugte Person die Handfeuerwaffe 5, insbesondere nur die ihr gehörende oder ihr zugeordnete Handfeuerwaffe 5, entnehmen kann. Das Entnehmen der Handfeuerwaffe 5 ist nach dem Entsperren der Sicherung und bei zurückgezogenem Bolzen 12 rasch und problemlos möglich, weil der Griff 6 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 - wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt - aus dem Gehäuse 2 der Vorrichtung 1 vorsteht.If an authorized person has the handgun 5, which - as in Fig. 1 shown - is stored, if you want to remove it, the safety device that prevents the bolt 12 from being pulled back must be unlocked. This can be done by entering a code using a keypad or by capturing biometric data (fingerprint, facial recognition, iris recognition). This ensures that only the authorized person has the handgun 5, in particular only the one that belongs to him or her assigned handgun 5, can be seen. Removing the handgun 5 is possible quickly and easily after unlocking the safety and with the bolt 12 retracted because the handle 6 of the handgun 5 - as in Fig. 1 shown - protrudes from the housing 2 of the device 1.

Von Vorteil bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1 ist es auch, dass in der Vorrichtung 1 eine Handfeuerwaffe 5 auch mit eingesetztem Magazin verwahrt werden kann.Another advantage of the device 1 according to the invention is that a handgun 5 can also be stored with the magazine inserted in the device 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 1 kann durch Befestigen des Gehäuses 2 an einer beliebigen Wand montiert werden.The device 1 according to the invention can be mounted on any wall by attaching the housing 2.

Die innerhalb des Gehäuses 2 vorgesehene elektronische Steuereinheit 22 bewirkt nach dem Entsperren der Sicherung auf die zuvor beschriebene Art und Weise, dass der Bolzen 12 aus seiner Wirkstellung zurückgezogen wird, sodass die Handfeuerwaffe 5 entnommen werden kann.After unlocking the safety device, the electronic control unit 22 provided within the housing 2 causes the bolt 12 to be retracted from its active position in the manner described above, so that the handgun 5 can be removed.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 1 kann mit einer Anzeigeeinrichtung verbunden sein, die anzeigt, dass eine Handfeuerwaffe 5 in der Vorrichtung 1 verwahrt ist.The device 1 according to the invention can be connected to a display device which indicates that a handgun 5 is stored in the device 1.

Diese Ausführungsform ist insbesondere von Vorteil, wenn in dem Gehäuse 2 mehrere Handfeuerwaffen 5 in jeweils dafür vorgesehenen Gehäuseteilen 3 verwahrt werden, was beispielsweise in Polizeistationen oder beim Militär von Bedeutung ist.This embodiment is particularly advantageous if several handguns 5 are stored in housing parts 3 provided for this purpose in the housing 2, which is important, for example, in police stations or in the military.

Die Anzeigeeinheit erlaubt es auch, festzustellen, ob eine Handfeuerwaffe 5 verwahrt ist oder nicht, sodass festgestellt werden kann, ob eine Handfeuerwaffe durch eine Person (Polizist oder Soldat), die Dienst hat, entnommen wurde, und die die Handfeuerwaffe 5 bei sich tragen muss.The display unit also makes it possible to determine whether a handgun 5 is stored or not, so that it can be determined whether a handgun was removed by a person (police officer or soldier) who is on duty and who must carry the handgun 5 with him .

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1 kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass das Vorschieben des Bolzens 12 abgebrochen wird, wenn die Handfeuerwaffe 5 nicht ordnungsgemäß eingeführt wird, beispielsweise mit ihrem Lauf nicht richtig über den Stab 10 in den Gehäuseteil 3 der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1 geschoben wird.In the device 1 according to the invention it can also be provided that the advancing of the bolt 12 is stopped if the handgun 5 is not inserted properly, for example with its barrel not correctly over the rod 10 is pushed into the housing part 3 of the device 1 according to the invention.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1 kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass das Vorschieben des Bolzens 12 unterbrochen wird, wenn versucht wird, die Handfeuerwaffe 5 während desIn the device 1 according to the invention it can also be provided that the advancing of the bolt 12 is interrupted if an attempt is made to use the handgun 5 during the

Vorschiebens des Bolzens 12 aus der Vorrichtung herauszuziehen, also die Handfeuerwaffe 5 von dem Sensor 20 entfernt wird. So kann eine mögliche Beschädigung der Handfeuerwaffe 5 verhindert werden.By pushing the bolt 12 out of the device, i.e. the handgun 5 is removed from the sensor 20. In this way, possible damage to the handgun 5 can be prevented.

Von Vorteil bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist es auch, dass eine verwahrte Handfeuerwaffe 5 gesichert ist, da der Bolzen 12 verhindert, dass der Abzugshebel 13 betätigt wird.It is also an advantage of the device according to the invention that a stored handgun 5 is secured, since the bolt 12 prevents the trigger lever 13 from being actuated.

Bei bestimmten Ausführungsformen von Pistolen (beispielsweise bei Pistolen der Marke Glock) ist auch ein Repetieren nicht möglich. Lediglich das Magazin kann angesteckt oder entfernt werden, da der Griff 6 - wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt - aus der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 1 vorsteht.With certain versions of pistols (for example Glock pistols), repeating is not possible. Only the magazine can be plugged in or removed, as the handle is 6 - as in Fig. 1 shown - protrudes from the device 1 according to the invention.

Zusammenfassend kann ein Ausführungsbeispiel wie folgt beschrieben werden:
Eine Vorrichtung 1 zum Verwahren von Handfeuerwaffen 5, insbesondere Faustfeuerwaffen, wie Pistolen und Revolver, in einem Gehäuse 2, weist einen in den Lauf 8 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 einführbaren Stab 10 auf. Weiters ist ein durch den Abzugsbügel 14 und vor den Abzugshebel 13 der Handfeuerwaffe 5 vorschiebbarer Bolzen 12 vorgesehen. Der vorgeschobene Bolzen 12 verhindert einerseits, dass die Handfeuerwaffe 5 aus dem Gehäuse 2 entfernt wird und anderseits, dass der Abzugshebel 13 betätigt wird. Schließlich ist eine Sicherung gegen unbefugtes Zurückschieben des Bolzens 12 vorgesehen, die eine Einrichtung zum Eingeben eines Sicherheitscodes und/oder eine Einrichtung zum Erkennen von biometrischen Merkmalen, wie Fingerabdrücke, Gesichter oder Augen, insbesondere der Iris, umfasst. Ein Sensor 20, der die Anwesenheit einer auf dem Stab 10 angeordneten Handfeuerwaffe 5 erfasst, aktiviert die Sicherung.In summary, an exemplary embodiment can be described as follows:
A device 1 for storing handguns 5, in particular handguns such as pistols and revolvers, in a housing 2, has a rod 10 which can be inserted into the barrel 8 of the handgun 5. Furthermore, a bolt 12 that can be advanced through the trigger guard 14 and in front of the trigger lever 13 of the handgun 5 is provided. The advanced bolt 12 prevents, on the one hand, that the handgun 5 is removed from the housing 2 and, on the other hand, that the trigger lever 13 is actuated. Finally, a safeguard against unauthorized pushing back of the bolt 12 is provided, which includes a device for entering a security code and/or a device for recognizing biometric features, such as Fingerprints, faces or eyes, especially the iris. A sensor 20, which detects the presence of a handgun 5 arranged on the rod 10, activates the safety device.
