  • Fig. 7 shows how the weapon 1 is pulled out of the receiving area 17 and thus out of the holster 3, the active holding element 13, formed as an ultrasonic sensor 13 is in the active state, the locking mechanism 7, and thus the weapon 1, is in the release state.
  • the switch 20 leaves the recess 23 and is pressed on the weapon 1 by this during the drawing process, thereby the circuit 22 is activated and the unlocking element 4, formed as a transmitter 4 transmits its characteristic signal, represented by concentric rings.

  • a switch (not shown) for activating the electrical / electronic weapon is in this embodiment within the electromechanical locking mechanism 7 and this is activated by pulling on the weapon 1 by hooking the hook of the fixing hook 24 in this switch when the weapon in Locking state is, whereby he fixes them in the holster 3, and as soon as the weapon 1 is pulled, is actuated.
  • the coupling regions 5, 9 and the grip sensor (active holding element) 13 are checked. If, in both cases, the status is positive, the weapon 1 is released and at the same time the electrome- Locking mechanism 7 free the fixing hook 24 by the switch is moved away from the region of the hook of the fixing hook 24 by an electromagnet. The weapon can thus be pulled. Otherwise it stays fixed in the holster 3. Everything else is the same as in the previously described embodiments.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de verrouillage pour une arme à feu (1) sur laquelle est disposé un ensemble de verrouillage (6). L'ensemble de verrouillage (6) comprend au moins un mécanisme de verrouillage électromécanique (7) et un ou plusieurs éléments de retenue actifs (13). Le dispositif de verrouillage comporte en outre un élément de déverrouillage (4) conçu séparément de l'arme à feu (1). L'élément de déverrouillage (4) est monté sur un ensemble de déverrouillage (3) qui comporte une zone de réception (17) dans laquelle l'arme (1) peut être introduite au moins partiellement. Le mécanisme de verrouillage (7) ne peut être amené dans un état de libération que lorsque l'arme (1) est introduite au moins partiellement dans la zone de réception (17) de l'ensemble de déverrouillage (3).
