Description

The invention relates to the equipment of shooting galleries, shooting rides and is intended for competitions on the speed defeat of targets when firing, mainly from air guns, as well as for training shooting athletes.

A known target installation, comprising a frame, on which two groups of targets are mounted by means of a horizontal shaft, which have the possibility of contact in the initial position with an abutment mounted on the frame, horizontal bars are mounted on the frame with microswitches mounted on them in contact with the bent ends of the targets, and on the frame pulling electromagnets are installed to return the targets to their original position and block them, controlled by a control panel remote from the device frame.

(see RF patent for utility model No. 36502, class F41J 1/10, 2004).

As a result of the analysis of the known installation, it should be noted that it is characterized by limited functionality due to the low degree of automation during its operation. The selection of competitions that can be held on it is small.

A two-channel automatic target installation is known, comprising a block for setting a cycle and two targets mechanically connected with electric drives, blocks for counting the number of hits in a target, an indicator of the number of hits, a logical block and a sensor for hitting a target, the inputs of the drives being connected to the first outputs of the corresponding logical blocks, the first inputs which are combined with the first inputs of the counting units of the number of hits interconnected among themselves, and are connected to the output of the cycle setting unit, and the output of each sensor is The target image is connected to the third input of the hit count unit and the second input of the logical block of the corresponding channel, while the third input of the logical block of the first channel is connected to the second output of the logical block of the second channel, the third input of which is connected to the second output of the logical block of the first channel, and the second output the hit count block is connected to the corresponding hit count indicator.

(see RF patent No. 2005982, class F41J 5/00, 1994) is the closest analogue.

As a result of the analysis of the implementation of the known installation, it should be noted that, in contrast to the above, it provides an account of the number of hits and their indication, is equipped with sensors for hitting targets. However, the functionality of this installation is small, as it is equipped with only two targets, which are fired multiple times, and two indicators of the number of hits. It is also significant that during the competition only their result is shown, and not the dynamics of its formation after each shot, which significantly reduces the degree of information content of both the participants of the competition and the audience.

The technical result of the claimed invention is to provide highly informative competitions for participants and spectators by visualizing the shooting results of the participant (each participant) throughout the entire competition process, as well as expanding the device's functionality by expanding the range of ongoing shooting competitions and the number of participants in them.

The specified technical result is ensured by the fact that in the target device containing targets equipped with target lesion sensors associated with the control unit, it is new that the device is equipped with a body and light emitters mounted on the front side of the body for signaling the start of the competition, and displays for indication of the results of the competition, the targets are grouped into blocks fixed on the front side of the body, each target block is equipped with a block activation indicator, and each s light indicator unit is equipped with its defeat, wherein the control unit is further coupled to the housing arranged on the displays and light-emitters signaling the beginning match, as well as elements of the signaling units and activation with light indicators target lesion each block.

Each target of the target block consists of a plate fastened to the end of the rod, mounted with the possibility of reciprocating movement in a sleeve fixed to the base of the block, the plate is located on the front side of the base and is spring-loaded relative to it, while the target is equipped with a contact group of two contacts having the ability to connect to the control unit, one contact is installed on the other end of the rod from the back of the base, and the other on the sleeve.

The essence of the claimed invention is illustrated by drawings, in which:

- in FIG. 1 - target device, plan view;

- in FIG. 2 - target block, plan view;

- in FIG. 3 is a section AA in FIG. 2, the target is in the working position;

- in FIG. 4 is a section AA in FIG. 2, the target at the time of its defeat;

- in FIG. 5 is a section BB of FIG. 2.

The target device comprises a housing 1 (Fig. 1) made of a sheet of almost any durable material. On the front side of the housing 1 are placed:

- Displays 2 (preferably LED) intended for visual presentation of the results of each participant-shooter / each team of shooters, for example, cumulative. Displays are most advisable to install with the possibility of removal. The number of displays 2 installed on the housing 1 may be different and depends mainly on the selected type of competition and the number of participants;

- light emitters 3, designed to signal the start of the competition (their number and placement on the housing 1 may be different, but such that at least one of at least one of the emitters must be guaranteed to be in the field of view of the shooter (each shooter);

- blocks of targets 4.

Each block of targets 4 (Fig. 2) includes:

- target 5;

- light emitters 6 for each of the targets 5, designed to indicate its defeat;

- light emitters 7, designed to signal the activation of a given block of targets (their location in the block may be different, including around the targets or around the perimeter of the block);

- base 8, designed for mounting on it the above elements of block 4.

Blocks of targets 4 (their number may be different, but, of course, at least one) are mounted on the housing 1 and their location on the housing 1 may be different (staggered, rhombus, vertically one below the other, etc.) and depends from the size of the housing 1. To exclude a draw during the competition, it is advisable to use an odd number of target blocks 4 in the device.

Each target 5 of the target block 4 consists of a plate 9 (Fig. 3, Fig. 4), fastened to the end of the rod 10. The rod 10 is mounted with the possibility of reciprocating movement in the sleeve 11, mounted in the base 8. The rod 10 is installed in the sleeve 11 so that the plate 9 is located on the front side of the base 8 and, respectively, of the housing 1. The plate with the rod is spring-loaded relative to the base 8 with an elastic element 12 located on the rod between the plate 9 and the end surface of the base 8.

At the other end of the rod 10 (on the back side of the base 8) is fixed contact 13, which can interact with the contact 14 mounted on the sleeve 11. The normally closed position of the contacts 13 and 14 is provided by an elastic element 12, which compresses them to each other.

Contacts 13 and 14 form a contact group, which is essentially a target lesion sensor. It is possible to carry out a contact group with normally open contacts, but this does not affect the achievement of the specified technical result.

The target device is equipped with a control unit (not shown), made, for example, based on a programmable processor. The control unit can be installed on the reverse side of the housing 1 or be autonomous, located at a distance from the housing 1. The control unit is powered from the mains or from an autonomous energy source. The control unit is turned on (off) remotely. The control unit is connected with displays 2, light emitters 3, light emitters 6 and 7, with contacts 13 and 14 of contact groups.

The operation of the target device will be disclosed by the example of a competition for high-speed shooting between two arrows.

The purpose of the competition is to hit “your” target faster in the rival in each block 4 that is currently activated, i.e. a shooter occupying a position on the left side will fire only on the left target in each activated block 4, and a shooter on the right - respectively, only on the right target.

After turning on the control unit immediately before the start of the competition, a command is remotely issued to turn on the light emitters 3, the glow of which signals the upcoming start of the competition.

Then, by a program command from the control unit, the emitters 3 go out and at the same time, the emitters 7 are turned on in one randomly selected program, block 4, i.e. it is activated, which is a signal to start shooting. Thus, the light emitters 7 indicate the arrows of the target of the target unit 4, which should be fired.

When the target is hit (Fig. 4), due to the kinetic energy of the bullet, the plate 9 moves in the direction of the base 8, compressing the elastic element 12. Contacts 13 and 14 open, the signal for their opening is sent to the control unit, which includes a light emitter 6, signaling about the defeat of this target.

Since the impact of the bullet on the elastic element 12 through the plate 9 is short-term, both of these elements almost instantly return to their original position, closing contacts 13 and 14. The signal from contacts 13 and 14 that the target is returned to its original position enters the control unit.

The defeat by one of the participants of “his” target in the block is recorded by the control unit, which simultaneously:

- blocks the signal from the contact group 13-14 of the second target, if it affects the second participant;

- transmits the signal of defeat of the first target to the corresponding display 2, showing the current and final results of the competition;

- includes a glow of a randomly selected emitter 7 of another block, in which each of the participants-shooters firing at "their" target.

The winner is the participant who hit more targets.

The claimed device is very convenient to use due to the high degree of informational content of each type of competitions held with its use, it can be easily combined with existing equipment of shooting ranges, shooting ranges, attractions, and it allows conducting a wide range of competitions (team, doubles, individual) with minimal commissioning work.
