Definitions
- the invention relates to a bullet trap for shooting ranges.
- a first type of known bullet trap for shooting ranges consists of an impact plate, a deceleration chamber, deflectors and a recovery tank.
- This trap produces a lot of noise; in that the bullets fragment and are crushed on said impact sheet, made of specially treated steel, thus developing, especially in closed shooting ranges, even ventilated, harmful lead vapors, and in that these traps do not not allow shooting from an angle.
- Another type of bullet trap for shooting ranges is composed of a series of inclined sheets in the form of a Venetian blind, a deceleration chamber in a recovery tank.
- Yet another type of bullet trap currently known is constituted by wooden elements mounted at a certain free distance in front of an armored steel sheet.
- Yet another type of currently known bullet trap consists of a wall of blocks of very thick rubbery material, blocks intended to capture and keep in their mass the projectiles fired. These eventually form amalgams of metal inside the blocks causing them to swell, resulting in the formation of cracks with the additional risk of ricochet from the projectiles fired on these amalgams.
- the invention relates to a bullet trap for shooting ranges avoiding the above and other disadvantages of known bullet traps and providing a trap allowing both: - optimum security both for long-range shots and for shots very close to the trap, including oblique shots; - a very significant reduction in pollution caused by lead fumes from the crash, or even the disintegration of lead bullets hitting the impact plate at high speed; - a very significant reduction in the impact noise of bullets on the wall of the trap, hence an important contribution to the reduction of ambient noise; - shooting a large number of bullets before damaging the elastic wall of the trap.
- the ball trap according to the invention applies the controlled absorption of the kinetic energy of the ball which crosses the elastic wall before its total stop against a shielding sheet, the latter absorbing only the energy. residual.
- This braking is achieved by a flexible agglomerated wall having the characteristic of opening up to the ball as it passes and then closing again.
- the invention also relates, for the production of the bale trap, the use of modular slabs allowing the easy construction by fitting of a stable and rigid elastic wall requiring a minimum of reinforcements of support and allowing during maintenance of the trap the replacement of one or more modules without having to replace the entire wall.
- the bullet trap consists essentially of the combination of at least one impact plate and at a free distance in front of the latter a flexible agglomerated wall.
- Figure 1 is shown, in a very schematic manner, a shooting range 1 provided with a bullet trap 2 according to the invention.
- This bullet trap consists essentially of an impact plate 3, a wall 4 of flexible agglomerate disposed at a distance D behind said wall 4 and of a recovery tank 5.
- the thickness E of the wall 4 is such that it adequately brakes the balls so as to absorb the kinetic energy of the balls before they pass through and stop completely against the impact plate 3.
- the wall 4 will advantageously consist of ground rubber, for example rubber coming from worn tires, the particles of which are connected together by an adequate adhesive and preferably under pressure in order to obtain an element of very high density.
- Such a flexible agglomerated wall has the characteristic of being able to open to the ball as it passes and to close thereafter.
- a preferable embodiment of a wall 4 according to the invention consists of modular tiles 6 as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5.
- These slabs are substantially constituted by a thickness, the edges of which have projections 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, respectively, and depressions or grooves, respectively 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18, which can cooperate with each other in order to obtain construction elements making it possible to construct stable walls 4 whose dimensions can be adapted according to each case.
- projections 7 to 12 and the grooves 13 to 18 are made in such a way that they allow the rigid and adaptable construction of a wall 4 but that they provide both at each location of the wall 4 the required wall thickness.
- the thickness of the wall will be of the order of 14 cm, while the distance will be of the order of 20 cm.
- both the sheet 3 and the wall 4 can be fixed in any way to the walls of the shooting range 1 concerned.
