Abstract

An aircraft hijacking prevention system has mini cameras (2) hidden in the cabin walls and a gun (7) pivoted (6) with infrared camera and piercing tool (9) on a transverse rail (3) moving on a longitudinal rail (4) hidden above the false ceiling all controlled by technicians in an armored cabin (1) isolated from the aircraft, crew and ground control.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

Les avions sont de plus en plus l'objet d'attaques aériennes sans qu'il y ait un système efficace de neutralisation des pirates de l'air.  Airplanes are increasingly the target of air strikes without an effective hijacker neutralization system.

La réglementation aérienne internationale en vigueur ne permet pas l'introduction d'armes à feu à l'intérieur des avions en vue de la neutralisation des pirates de l'air.  Current international air regulations do not allow the introduction of firearms into aircraft to neutralize hijackers.

Cette réglementation est en cours de révision, notamment aux Etats Unis afin de permettre à plusieurs policiers armés à bord d'assurer la protection des passagers dans de tels cas. These regulations are currently being revised, notably in the United States to allow several armed police officers on board to ensure the protection of passengers in such cases.

Toutefois la présence des armes à feu à l'intérieur de l'avions peut laisser présager dans l'esprit des passagers, l'éventualité d'une attaque, au cours de laquelle un combat au corps à corps entre policiers et pirates peut se produire. Dans de telles circonstances il y a autant de chance pour que les policiers arrivent à désarmer les pirates que l'inverse. En outre, selon les statistiques, les échanges de tirs entre policiers et pirates peuvent se terminer, dans le meilleur des cas, par des effets psychologiques néfastes sur les passagers pendant très longtemps sans oublier les dommages matériels très coûteux causés à l'avion même. Exemple : l'intervention au sol de la police française (GIGN) sur l'avion d'Air France en provenance d'Algérie bloqué sur l'aéroport de Marignane en 1994.  However, the presence of firearms inside the aircraft may hint in the minds of passengers of the possibility of an attack, during which a close combat between police officers and pirates may occur. . In such circumstances, the police are as likely to disarm the pirates as the reverse. In addition, according to statistics, the exchange of fire between police and hijackers can end, in the best of cases, by harmful psychological effects on the passengers for a very long time without forgetting the very expensive material damage caused to the plane itself. Example: the intervention on the ground of the French police (GIGN) on the Air France plane from Algeria stranded at Marignane airport in 1994.

La présente invention a pour but d'introduire à bord des avions un système de défense légitime permettant de dissuader ou bien neutraliser les pirates et ainsi diminuer les risques encourus par les passagers de même que les risques d'explosion des avions en l'air.  The object of the present invention is to introduce on board aircraft a legitimate defense system making it possible to deter or neutralize pirates and thus reduce the risks run by passengers as well as the risks of aircraft explosion in the air.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est constitué : - d'une cabine (1) de contrôle et d'intervention avec parois pare-balles d'une surface permettant à un ou éventuellement 2 techniciens de s'asseoir afin de commander l'ensemble du dispositif faisant l'objet de l'invention. Cette cabine sera installée loin de la cabine de pilotage. L'entrée ou la sortie de cette cabine se faisant uniquement au sol évitera toute intrusion dans la cabine pendant le vol, autrement dit il sera impossible d'en ouvrir la porte dès le décollage de l'avion jusqu'à son atterrissage complet. The device according to the invention consists of: - a control and intervention cabin (1) with bullet-proof walls of a surface allowing one or possibly 2 technicians to sit down in order to control the whole of the device which is the subject of the invention. This cabin will be installed far from the cockpit. The entry or exit of this cabin being done only on the ground will avoid any intrusion into the cabin during the flight, in other words it will be impossible to open the door from the takeoff of the plane until its complete landing.

Cette mesure ainsi qu'une coupure absolue de contact visuel, phonique, téléphonique avec quiconque dans l'avion et au sol avec les tours de contrôle ou autre, évitera toute pression extérieure sur les techniciens de sécurité. Ils doivent être seuls maîtres de leur intervention à bord en cas de crise.  This measure as well as an absolute cutoff of visual, phonic, telephone contact with anyone on the plane and on the ground with control towers or other, will avoid any external pressure on the security technicians. They must be the sole masters of their intervention on board in the event of a crisis.

- de plusieurs micro caméras spéciales (2) fonctionnant avec ou sans fil prévues à cet effet. L'emplacement de ces caméras doit permettre de reproduire sur le ou les écran (s) de contrôle l'intégralité des espaces des passagers et de la cabine de pilotage. Les caméras ne doivent être aucunement perceptibles à l'oeil nu depuis l'habitacle de l'avion.  - several special micro cameras (2) operating with or without wire provided for this purpose. The location of these cameras must enable the entire passenger and cockpit spaces to be reproduced on the control screen (s). The cameras must not be visible to the naked eye from the cockpit of the aircraft.

- d'un long rail en forme de U retourné (3), situé au dessus du faux plafond qui surplombe le couloir de passage entre les sièges des passagers, d'environ 5 cm de haut, 10 cm de large parcourant toute la longueur intérieure de l'avion y compris et une partie de la cabine de pilotage. - a long U-shaped inverted rail (3), located above the false ceiling which overhangs the passage corridor between the passenger seats, approximately 5 cm high, 10 cm wide covering the entire interior length including the airplane and part of the cockpit.

Dans le rail (3) glissera un deuxième rail (4), éventuellement légèrement cintré, d'une longueur d'environ 18 cm.  In the rail (3) will slide a second rail (4), possibly slightly curved, with a length of about 18 cm.

Le rail (4) doit pouvoir se déplacer à l'aide d'une télécommande, située dans la cabine, longitudinalement sur tout le trajet du rail (3) d'une extrémité à l'autre.  The rail (4) must be able to move using a remote control, located in the cabin, longitudinally along the entire path of the rail (3) from one end to the other.

A l'intérieur du rail (4) un petit élément en forme de T (6) sera télécommandé depuis la cabine dans le sens transversal sur ses 18 cm..  Inside the rail (4) a small T-shaped element (6) will be remote-controlled from the cabin in the transverse direction over its 18 cm.

A l'extrémité du T (5) sera fixé un élément pivotant (6).  At the end of the T (5) will be fixed a pivoting element (6).

Sur l'élément pivotant (6) sera fixé un Lanceur de projectiles spécial (7) avec une portée maximale de 2 mètres afin d'éviter au projectile de traverser la coque de l'avion. On the pivoting element (6) will be fixed a special Projectile launcher (7) with a maximum range of 2 meters in order to prevent the projectile from crossing the hull of the aircraft.

Le Lanceur de projectile (7) est muni d'un rayon laser dont la pointe rouge ou viseur (8) viendra se mettre sur le corps de la cible à neutraliser ou à éliminer.  The Projectile Launcher (7) is equipped with a laser beam whose red point or sight (8) will come to be placed on the body of the target to neutralize or eliminate.

Le Lance projectiles est muni d'un mécanisme de percuteur spécial (9) commandé depuis la cabine par un technicien. The Projectile Launcher is provided with a special striker mechanism (9) controlled from the cabin by a technician.

Le projectile choisi peut être une balle, une aiguille contenant du poison ou contenant un anesthésiant.  The chosen projectile can be a bullet, a needle containing poison or containing an anesthetic.

Les éléments 4 ; 5 ; 6 ; 7 et 8 peuvent être montés sur le rail (3) en deuxièmes exemplaires afin de permettre à un deuxième technicien dans la cabine de sécurité d'intervenir en même temps que le premier technicien de sécurité sur d'autres cibles à neutraliser ou à éliminer. Elements 4; 5; 6; 7 and 8 can be mounted on the rail (3) in second copies in order to allow a second technician in the security cabin to intervene at the same time as the first security technician on other targets to be neutralized or eliminated.
