Description

  The present invention relates to a target device including a target unit on which a laser beam or a real bullet emitted from a launch device lands.

  Conventionally, in a shooting training apparatus using a laser beam or an actual bullet, when the laser beam or the actual bullet emitted from the launcher hits the target unit of the target device, an LED (light emitting diode) is emitted or the target unit is in an upright state. The trainee is informed of the trainer by, for example, changing the position from falling down (see, for example, cited document 1).

FIG. 5 shows a configuration example of a conventional target device 10 used in a shooting training apparatus that performs shooting training with an actual bullet.
The target device 10 supports a target 13 formed in a plate shape, for example, on a base 11 by target support members 12a and 12b. The target support members 12a and 12b are rotatably mounted at the lower ends thereof on both sides of the base 11, and support the target 13 on the upper side. The target 13 is provided with a target mark 14 on the front side and an impact sensor 15 for detecting the arrival of a real bullet. The impact sensor 15 is provided in a place where there is no risk of landing and the landing on the target 13 can be detected.

  The signal detected by the impact sensor 15 is sent to a target control unit (not shown) provided inside the base 11. The target control unit includes a concealment control function for controlling the target 13 in a standing state (appearing state) and a falling state (concealing state), and holds the target 13 in the standing state at the start of training.

The target device 10 is installed at a position away from the position of the trainee 17 by a predetermined distance.
When the training person 17 performs the shooting training, the aimer of the gun 18 is aimed at the target mark 14 of the target 13 in the appearing state and fires an actual bullet. When the impact sensor 15 detects that it has landed on the target 13, it outputs the detection signal to the target control unit. The target control unit determines presence / absence of landing from the detection signal of the impact sensor 15, and when it is determined that the landing has been made, the target control unit is brought down and hidden from the trainer 17.

When the actual bullet fired from the gun 18 hits the target 13 as described above, the target 13 is laid down and concealed, and the trainer 17 is informed that the bullet has hit the target 13.
FIG. 6 shows a configuration example of the target device 20 when shooting training is performed using a laser gun. The target device 20 supports, for example, a target 23 formed in a plate shape on a base 21 by target support members 22a and 22b. A target mark 24 is shown on the front side of the target 23, and a laser receiver 25 is provided at the center thereof. In addition, the target 23 is provided with an indicator 26 such as an LED on the front upper portion.

  When the laser beam receiver 25 receives the laser beam, the laser beam receiver 25 outputs the received light signal to a target control unit (not shown) provided inside the base 21. When the light receiving signal is sent from the laser light receiver 25, the target controller turns on or blinks the indicator 26 and informs the trainee that the laser light emitted from the laser gun has hit the target 23. Inform.

  Further, in the laser gun target device 20, the target 23 can be driven and controlled in the standing state and the overturned state as in the case of the target device 10 for actual bullet training, and the target is detected by the light reception signal of the laser light receiver 25. It is also possible to control the cover 23.

JP 2003-130595 A

  As shown in FIG. 5 above, in the target device 10 in which the target 13 is concealed by the presence or absence of landing, since the concealment operation is performed every time an actual bullet hits the target 13, it is continuously fired. In such a case, only the first shot can be determined, and there is a problem that it cannot be used for training for continuous shooting.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the target device 20 in which the indicator 26 is turned on or blinked when the laser beam is received by the laser receiver 25, an LED is used as the indicator 26. It is used and has directivity so that it can be seen from a distance, but if the angle between the trainee and the target 23 is given, the trainee cannot see the light emission, so whether the target 23 is hit or not It cannot be determined. Further, in the laser gun target device 20, when the target 23 is concealed and controlled by the presence or absence of the laser beam hit, only the first first laser beam is emitted as in the case of the actual target device 10. The landing due to cannot be determined.

Moreover, in the target apparatus 10 using a real bullet, the indicator 26 cannot be attached because it is damaged by the real bullet.
The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and can be applied to both shooting training of live bullets and shooting training using laser light, and determines landing even when shooting from a distance or from a target at an angle. An object of the present invention is to provide a target device that can perform landing determination even for continuous shooting.

  The present invention provides a target device including a target portion on which a laser beam or a real bullet emitted from a launch device lands, and a landing sensor that detects that the laser beam or a real bullet has landed on the target portion, and the landing sensor And an irradiation device that irradiates the target portion with visible light when landing is detected, and the irradiation device is configured separately from the target portion.

  According to the present invention, when landing on a target is detected by a landing sensor, a shooting trainer can irradiate the target with visible light from an irradiation device that is configured separately from the target. Even when shooting at an angle with respect to the target, it is possible to reliably determine the landing on the target, and it is possible to deal with shooting training using actual laser light and shooting training using laser light. Even when continuous shooting is performed on the target, the landing determination can be performed by operating the irradiation device and irradiating the target with visible light each time it hits the target.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an overall configuration example of a shooting training apparatus using a laser beam according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of a target apparatus.
As shown in FIG. 1, the shooting training device 30 includes a target device 31 and a shooting device for shooting the target device 31, for example, a laser gun 32. The shooting trainer 34 performs shooting training using the laser gun 32.

  In the target device 31, a support 42 is vertically provided on a base 41, and a target 43 is provided on the front side of the support 42. A linear motion drive mechanism 44 such as a ball screw is provided on the front side of the support column 42, and the target 43 is driven and controlled by the linear motion drive mechanism 44 in the vertical direction. A laser light receiver 45 is provided as a landing sensor in the center of the front surface of the target 43. The light receiver 45 outputs a light reception signal when the laser light 33 emitted from the laser gun 32 is received. This received light signal is sent to a control unit 51 provided inside the base 41 as shown in FIG.

An irradiation device 46 configured separately from the target 43 is provided below the front side of the target device 31. The irradiation device 46 operates in accordance with an instruction from the control unit 51 and irradiates the target 43 with visible light for a certain period of time.
The control unit 51 has an operation mode set by, for example, a remote operation of a shooting training manager, drives the linear motion drive mechanism 44 according to the operation mode, and moves the target 43 in the vertical direction as shown by an arrow a in FIG. To perform concealment control. In addition, when the laser beam 33 emitted from the laser gun 32 hits the light receiver 45 of the target 43, the control unit 51 drives the irradiation device 46 to irradiate the target 43 with visible light, and the laser beam 33 is irradiated with the target light. Inform the shooting trainer 34 that he has hit 43.

  The target device 31 configured as described above is installed at a position away from the shooting trainer 34 by a predetermined distance as shown in FIG. The control unit 51 drives the linear motion drive mechanism 44 during shooting training to move the target 43 up and down at a predetermined timing, and stops the target 43 for a predetermined target appearance time when the target 43 reaches the top. Then, the target 43 is brought into the appearing state.

  When the target 43 that is moving up and down moves upward and enters the appearing state, the shooting trainer 34 sets the aim of the laser gun 32 to the light receiver 45 of the target 43 and emits the laser beam 33. When the emitted laser beam 33 hits the light receiver 45 of the target 43, a light reception signal is output from the light receiver 45 and sent to the control unit 51. When a light reception signal is sent from the light receiver 45, the control unit 51 drives the irradiation device 46 to irradiate the target 43 with visible light for a certain period of time. Thus, the target 43 is illuminated brightly, and the shooting trainer 34 can determine that the laser beam 33 emitted from the laser gun 32 has hit the target 43.

  When the laser beam 33 emitted from the laser gun 32 hits the target 43 as described above, the irradiation device 46 configured separately from the target 43 is driven to irradiate the target 43 with visible light. The landing on the target 43 can be clearly determined even from a distance. Further, even if the target 43 is shot at an angle, since the entire target 43 is irradiated with visible light from the irradiation device 46, landing on the target 43 can be reliably determined.

  In the first embodiment, the target 43 is moved in the vertical direction to perform the concealment operation. However, even if the target 43 is not concealed, the landing on the target 43 is shown to the shooting trainer 34. be able to. Therefore, for example, the target 43 is continuously shot in a state where the target 43 is fixed, and the target 43 is irradiated with visible light from the irradiation device 46 every time the laser beam 33 hits the target 43. Can clearly show the landing of

  In the first embodiment, the irradiation device 46 is operated every time the laser beam 33 lands on the target 43. However, the irradiation device is used when the laser beam 33 lands on the target 43 a plurality of times, for example, three times. The landing display on the target 43 may be performed by performing weighting such as operating 46.

Next, the case where the present invention is implemented in a shooting training apparatus using live ammunition will be described.
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a shooting training apparatus using an actual bullet according to the second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of a target apparatus.
The shooting training device 30A according to the second embodiment includes a target device 31A and a shooting device for shooting the target device 31A, for example, a gun 32A using an actual bullet. The shooting trainer 34 performs shooting training using the gun 32A.

  The target device 31A has substantially the same configuration as that of the target device 31 in the first embodiment, but the target 43 is provided with an impact sensor 61 for detecting the impact of an actual bullet instead of the laser receiver 45 and the front center of the target 43. The target mark 62 is provided in the part. The impact sensor 61 is provided at a place where there is no risk of landing and the landing on the target 43 can be detected, for example, at the corner of the target 43. The impact sensor 61 detects a vibration frequency caused by an impact or a shock wave when an actual bullet hits the target 43, and outputs a detection signal to the control unit 51 provided inside the base 41. Further, an irradiation device 46 is provided separately from the target 43.

  The control unit 51 drives the linear drive mechanism 44 in accordance with, for example, an operation mode set by remote operation of a shooting training manager, moves the target 43 in the vertical direction, performs concealment control, and fires from the gun 32A. When the actual bullet hits the target 43 in the appearing state, the irradiation device 46 is driven by the detection signal of the impact sensor 61 to irradiate the target 43 with visible light for a certain period of time, shooting that the actual bullet hit the target 43 Inform the trainee 34.

  The target device 31A for real-shot shooting training configured as described above targets the visible light from the irradiation device 46 configured separately from the target 43 when the landing on the target 43 is detected as in the first embodiment. By irradiating 43, it is possible to reliably determine landing on the target 43 even from a distance or even when shooting at an angle with respect to the target 43.

  Further, the target 43 is continuously fired in a fixed state, and the target 43 is irradiated with visible light each time an actual bullet hits the target 43, so that the target 43 is landed. It can be clearly shown. It is also possible to display the landing on the target 43 by performing weighting such as operating the irradiation device 46 when an actual bullet hits the target 43 a plurality of times.

  In the first and second embodiments, the case where the target 43 is moved in the up and down direction to perform the concealment control is shown. However, in other directions, for example, when the target 43 is rotationally driven to perform the concealment control, or the target 43 In the case of controlling the concealment by driving to stand up (appearing state) and falling (concealing state), the target 43 is detected and the target 43 is irradiated with visible light. By doing so, the landing on the target 43 can be reliably determined.

Further, as shown by broken lines in FIGS. 2 and 4, a driving mechanism 60 may be provided in the irradiation device 46 so that the irradiation direction of the visible light of the irradiation device 46 always follows the movement of the target 43.
In addition, the shooting training is generally performed during the day, but at night, the target device 31, 31A is irradiated with light to enable night shooting training. In this case, the light is irradiated in accordance with the appearance of the target 43 or the target 43 that is continuing to appear.

In addition, shooting training with a night vision device can be performed by irradiating the target devices 31 and 31A with infrared rays at night. In this case, the infrared rays are irradiated in accordance with the appearance of the target 43 or are irradiated to the target 43 that continues to appear.
Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment as it is, and can be embodied by modifying constituent elements without departing from the scope of the invention in the implementation stage.
