Description

A useful model for the field of military equipment, in particular, for small-sized electronic educational and training complexes using computer simulation.

The use of a useful model allows you to form the skills of shooting with small arms without the use of cartridges in the conditions of a training class.

Kudryakov's well-known shooting simulator |1)Y, which contains a radiation source made in the form of a sector target, a radiation receiver installed on a small-arms weapon, connected to an amplifier and a signal processing circuit. The target is four-sector with an X-shaped arrangement of sectors and modulated radiation of each of its sectors, which makes it possible to isolate signals corresponding to the sectors of the target from the general signal at the output of the radiation receiver. The optical-electronic receiver consists of a collecting lens, in the main focus of which diaphragms with a calibrated aperture and a photocell are installed. The values of the selected signals from each section of the target (amplitude) are directly proportional to the projection of the area of the corresponding sector of the target onto the photocell of the optical-electronic receiver. The shift of the optical axis of the receiver from the center of the target causes a redistribution of the amplitude values, which makes it possible to determine the magnitude of this shift, that is, the coordinates of the aiming point.

The disadvantages of this device are the difficulty of ensuring uniform illumination of target sectors due to the heterogeneity of radiation in different directions, especially in the case of large target dimensions; due to the heterogeneity of the transparent target material; the large dimensions of the optical-electronic receiver installed on the weapon, which leads to a violation of the mass-dimensional parameters of training weapons in comparison with combat ones, a large number of wires connecting weapons with electronic signal processing devices and limiting the freedom of action of those who are trained to shoot; the difficulty of shielding from the action of electromagnetic fields created during the operation of the weapon recoil simulator; lack of continuous control of the position of weapons, which does not allow to record violations of the handling of weapons during shooting at the shooting range.

A known laser shooting simulator |2Й, containing a training weapon with a trigger mechanism equipped with a contact that closes an electric circuit when the trigger is pressed, a laser emitter installed on the muzzle of the weapon, and a television receiver (camera) installed stationary opposite the screen of the simulator. When pressing the trigger

From the hooks on the screen, a light spot is formed at the point of impact from a laser operating in pulse mode. The coordinates of the spot are determined using a television camera.

The disadvantage of the device is the lack of continuous control of the position of the weapon, which does not allow recording violations of the handling of the weapon during shooting at the shooting range, as well as the impossibility of simulating shooting when the line of direction of the barrel of the weapon is above the screen (this situation occurs when simulating shooting from an underbarrel grenade launcher).

A well-known shooting simulator with an optical-electronic recording device |Z), which contains a computer (EC), a device for displaying results (a monitor), a screen of the simulator, on which emitters (IR diodes) connected to the block are located in two rows with a constant step management. The simulator also contains several identical channels (up to eight), each of which contains a training weapon with a trigger mechanism equipped with a contact that closes the electrical circuit when the trigger is pressed, and an optical-electronic converter installed on the muzzle, as well as photocurrent amplifiers, circuits for fixing the maximum signal level and analog-digital converters.

Disadvantages of the device are: distortion of the visual picture of the terrain and the target situation due to the presence of marker radiation sources on the screen; low interference immunity due to the large number of wires connecting the weapon with electronic signal processing devices, as well as the difficulty of creating a small-sized receiver that is installed on the weapon and does not violate the weight-to-size ratio of the training weapon, as well as the impossibility of simulating firing when the line of direction of the barrel of the weapon is above the screen ( such a situation occurs when simulating firing from an underbarrel grenade launcher).

A known optical-electronic target of a shooting simulator |4), containing a training weapon with a trigger mechanism equipped with a contact that closes an electric circuit when the trigger is pressed, a laser emitter installed on the muzzle of the weapon, a screen, a computer and a device for displaying the results of a shot. In the device opposite the screen, an optical-electronic receiver is installed, containing two pairs of band diaphragms, focon and photodetectors, located at an angle of 90" to each other, the outputs of the photodetectors are connected to the inputs of the photocurrent amplifiers, the outputs of which are connected to the inputs of the circuits fixation of the maximum signal level, connected to analog-to-digital converters, the outputs of which are connected to the inputs of the computer.

The disadvantages of this device are the relatively low accuracy of determining coordinates due to the speckle effect, which consists in shifting the geometric center of radiation of a laser spot on the screen within the limits of the size of this spot (up to one third of the diameter of the spot), since the signals from the photo receivers of the device are proportional exactly to the position of the geometric center laser spot on the screen. In addition, the small field of registration due to the limited angle of the field of view, the high cost of installing a separate laser for each type of small arms and the low power due to the difficulty of cooling the laser in the conditions of the mass and size limitations of training weapons, as well as the impossibility of simulating firing when the line of direction of the barrel of the weapon is above the screen (such the situation arises when simulating firing from an underbarrel grenade launcher).

The closest analogue is the optical-electronic shooting range of collective combat |5), which contains a large-format screen, which is divided into sections, opposite which projectors are installed to create a continuous realistic image of the terrain and the target situation, and a pair of optical-electronic sensors for each of them to determine the vertical and horizontal coordinates within the screen section. Each sensor consists of a cylindrical lens with a photo line located transversely in its focal plane and an electronic unit.

Pairs of sensors are installed so that in one of them the ruler is located vertically, and in the other horizontally. Laser emitters are equipped with cooling radiators, which are installed stationary and connected by means of optical connectors and light guides with collimating lenses installed on training weapons.

The collective combat optical-electronic shooting range works as follows.

According to the selected scenario, the computer sends a signal to the projector and a realistic image of the terrain, target situation and targets is formed on the screen. The shooter points the training weapon at the selected target using the sighting devices, having previously determined the distance to the target by its angular dimensions and setting the bar to the appropriate range, the signal from the contact sensor of the bar position is sent to the computer input to fix the set range.

When the trigger is pressed by one of the participants in the collective fight, the electrical signal of the closed circuit enters the input of the computer and, accordingly, a signal is sent from the output of the computer to the input of the laser control, according to which a laser beam with a duration of 40 μs is formed. In addition, the computer generates a signal that simulates the sound of a shot that comes to

From headphones. The reflection from the laser spot on the screen with the help of a cylindrical lens is collected into a light strip that crosses PZ33 (a device with a charging connection) - a ruler in a place corresponding to the angular position of the laser spot. A horizontal deviation sensor using a CCD line works as follows. The microcontroller produces clock pulses and reset pulses that are input to the corresponding inputs of the CCD line. In addition, simultaneously with the output of the reset pulse, the coordinate counter is reset to zero in the microcontroller, and with the output of each clock pulse, the coordinate counter is increased by 1. When a sequence of clock pulses arrives on the line, a video signal is formed at its output, the amplitude of which at each point of the line is proportional to the incident light flux . The video signal enters the input of the signal amplifier, and from its output - to the input of the comparator. When the video signal exceeds the threshold level, 1 appears on the direct output of the comparator, and 0 on the inverse output. When the signal is received from the direct output of the comparator to the corresponding input of the microcontroller of the leading edge of the signal, the value of the coordinate counter Xi is memorized. When a signal arrives from the inverse output of the comparator to the corresponding input of the microcontroller of the rear edge, the value of the XP coordinate counter is memorized and the position of the center of the light strip X-(XI "XP)/2" is calculated, which corresponds to the horizontal position of the laser spot.

The coordinate of the center of the light strip is transmitted from the microcontroller to the computer. The vertical deviation sensor, which outputs the vertical coordinate at the center of the laser spot, works similarly. The computer receives from the sensors the X, Y coordinates of the point of impact of the laser spot on the screen and displays these coordinates on its monitor, taking into account the set range registered in the computer by the signal from the aiming bar position sensor.

When a laser beam hits a target, the computer changes the target situation, for example by removing the affected target from the screen.

The disadvantages of this device are the impossibility of simulating firing when the line of direction of the barrel of the weapon is above the screen (this situation occurs when simulating firing from an underbarrel grenade launcher), lack of simulation of recoil when shot, lack of continuous control over the position of the weapon.

The creation of a useful model is based on the task of creating a shooting simulator in which the simulation of recoil that occurs when a shot is fired, continuous control over the position of the weapon, as well as the simulation of firing when the line of direction of the barrel of the weapon is above the screen (this is the situation that occurs when simulating firing from an underbarrel grenade launcher ).

The task is solved by the fact that the proposed modular electronic shooting simulator consists of at least one training module of the electronic simulator, which contains a training weapon with a trigger sensor, a coupling device, a large-format screen, a projector, an audio system and a supervisor's computer, and, moreover, a video output of the supervisor's computer is connected to the projector, the audio output is connected to the audio system, the coupling device is connected to the supervisor's computer, and the first input is connected to the output of the trigger pull sensor, in which, according to a useful model, the training weapon is additionally equipped an electro-pneumatic valve with an air supply system in the gas outlet tube, an infrared emitter with an optical system, which are mechanically fixed on the barrel of the training weapon, an underbarrel grenade launcher simulator with a sensor for pressing the trigger (optional), a sensor for the spatial position of the weapon, and the specified module contains

MEV chamber with a system of infrared filters, a compressor, moreover, the output of the compressor is connected by a high-pressure hose to the input of the electro-pneumatic valve, the output of which is connected to the gas outlet tube, and the control input is connected to the second output of the coupling device, to the second input of which the trigger pressure sensor is connected , installed on the simulator of an underbarrel grenade launcher (optional), the input of an infrared emitter with an optical system is connected to the third output of the coupling device, which is mechanically fixed on the barrel of the training weapon, to the third output of which, the sensor of the spatial position of the weapon is connected, the output of the manager's computer is connected over a local network with similar specified modules.

The listed features of the device make up the essence of a useful model.

The existence of a cause-and-effect relationship between the set of essential features of a useful model and the technical result achieved is as follows.

The introduction of a compressor connected to an electropneumovalve into the proposed simulator allows high-pressure air to be supplied to the gas outlet tube at the moment of simulating a shot, which leads to the simulation of recoil, and the use of a sensor of the spatial position of the training weapon allows you to continuously fix the direction of the barrel and provides the possibility of simulating firing from under the barrel grenade launcher
