Definitions

  • the electronic scoring of sport fencing matches requires that the fencers' equipment be connected to the scoring equipment by electrical wires or cables.
  • the wires are retained in reels, and as the players move during competition, the reels play out the wires and retract the wires depending on the players movement.
  • the wires and reels are cumbersome and can be a distraction to efficient competition and can constrain the available play area. It would be advantageous to eliminate any interconnecting wires between the fencers and scoring equipment and still provide automatic scoring of the match.
  • the Aldridge U.S. Pat. No. 6,700,051 describes a system for scoring contact sports, and in particular karate. Fencing and other contact sports are mentioned but not described with any particularity.
  • the Alvaro U.S. Pat. No. 6,612,968 shows a fencing weapon having a switch at the top of the weapon which is connected to a touch-signaling unit in the weapon grip and which can cause an acoustic or light output upon detecting a touch, and which can cause the transmission of a radio signal to a receiver to remotely signal the touch.
  • the Delcayre U.S. Pat. No. 4,030,731 describes a scoring system in which each fencer wears a unit which can transmit a unique signal frequency to a receiver and in which pulses received by that fencer's unit from another fencer block the transmission of a touch signal.
  • a wireless scoring system which does not require any interconnecting wires between the scoring equipment and the fencers and which requires no change in existing fencing or scoring equipment.
  • a touch detector unit is worn by each fencer and is operative to provide signal indications of fencing touches or hits which uniquely identify each fencer and which signify valid and invalid hits and which can be wirelessly transmitted to receiving apparatus coupled to the scoreboard or other scoring equipment.
  • the system is plug compatible with existing fencing weapons and scoring equipment and is readily employed therewith.
  • the touch detector unit includes an electronic oscillator having a frequency unique to each fencer, detector circuitry for detecting when and where a fencer has been touched, a microprocessor for providing appropriate processing of the detected signals and a wireless modem for transmitting the touch information to receiving apparatus for decoding and for display of scoring information on a scoreboard or for storage or other utilization purposes.

  • Standard fencing weapons have three electrical terminals for connection to a scoreboard by three interconnecting wires from each fencer.
  • the present wireless system eliminates the need for interconnecting wires and utilizes a small battery powered unit which is worn by each fencer.
  • FIG. 1 The wiring diagram for a known fencing foil is shown in FIG. 1 .
  • a normally closed switch 10 is located at the tip 12 of the foil 14 .
  • One terminal of the switch is connected via a wire to a tip terminal at the handle or grip of the foil.
  • the other switch terminal is connected to a guard terminal at the grip portion.
  • the guard is connected to the switch via the blade which is in electrical connection with the guard.
  • the fencer's metallic vest or lamé 18 is connected by an allegator clip to the body cord.

  • One terminal of the switch is connected by a wire to a tip terminal of the epee.
  • the second terminal of the switch is connected via a wire to a return tip terminal of the epee.
  • the guard 16 a is connected to a guard terminal.
  • the guard 16 a should be electrically insulated from the grip/blade of the epee to avoid possible shorting of the grip/blade to the guard by sweat on the player's hand.
  • An insulating washer can be used at the threshold connection between the grip and blade that retains the guard.
  • FIG. 3 shows the wiring diagram for a known saber.
  • the tip and guard terminals of the saber are connected directly to the blade and guard, respectively, of the saber.

  • the touch detection system includes an oscillator 20 which has a different frequency for each fencer, to delineate the respective fencers in a match or competition.
  • the oscillator 20 can be adjustable in frequency to provide a signal of unique frequency for each player.
  • the fencers are designated herein as red and green and the frequencies will be referred to as F r and F g for the respective players.
  • the oscillator is connected to the tip or blade of the associated weapon.
  • a switch state detector 22 is connected to the guard of a foil, or to the tip of an epee.
  • the switch state detector For use with a foil, the switch state detector provides an output signal when the normally closed tip switch is opened. For use with an epee, the switch state detector provides an output signal when the normally open tip switch is closed. A saber has no tip switch and therefore the switch detector is not utilized for saber matches. A hit or touch is denoted by the output signal of the switch state detector in the case of foil or epee matches. For saber matches, a hit or touch is denoted by the saber blade of one fencer touching the lamé of the opponent fencer. As is understood in the scoring of fencing competitions, a hit by a blade tip or blade may be affected by invalid hits such as hits to or by the blade guard or hits to a piste. The detector circuitry described herein provides detection of all hits needed for proper determination of scores.
  • a frequency detector 24 is connected to the guard of a foil or an epee and provides a digital output signal representing frequency F g when the guard is touched by the green opponent's tip, and a digital code representing frequency F r when the guard is touched by a red opponent's tip.
