Definitions

  • the invention is concerned with a remote controllable firing pin safety.
  • a further electric remote-controlled security device is added to a mechanical firing pin safety device, the principle is that a firing is only possible if the firing pin is unlocked both locally mechanically and electrically via the remote control.
  • an electric firing pin safety device an electric actuator is integrated into the mechanical firing pin safety device.
  • firing pin For the ignition of ammunition in pipe weapons often mechanically operated firing pin are used. These firing pin are clamped against a tension spring, released for firing, the firing pin penetrates into the cargo space of the barrel weapon. With the transmission of the kinetic energy of the firing pin on the ammunition located there, the ignition charge is ignited. Subsequently, the firing pin is returned to a safe position by a return spring.
  • mechanical striker locks are basically known.
  • weapons with mechanical ignition usually have a securing element which mechanically secures the last actuator (ie the firing pin).
  • This firing pin safety device is normally operated manually by an operator locally on the gun.
  • a push-turn handle usually controls a Bowden cable, which moves a piston rod, at the end of the firing pin safety device is attached, whereby the firing pin safety either secures or unlocks.
  • a purely remote-operated firing pin safety device is not intended for remote-controlled guns and has the disadvantage that it could be unlocked by a weapon control unit remote from the weapon, if personnel handled the weapon / gun, creating a threat to this staff.
  • a number of functions are only permitted on the gun due to the applicable security doctrine, provided that the gun is in a secure state; these include, for example, loading, unloading or set-up control.
  • DE 90 01 066 U1 b concerns a safety device for selectively securing a firearm, here a revolver.
  • a main spring rod When tensioning a firing pin, a main spring rod is slidably moved against the action of a spring. The firing pin is then locked and held under the tension of the spring. If the trigger is operated, the rod is released, the firing pin itself is pivoted in an opposite direction to the rod movement and strikes the cartridges.
  • This revolver has as a first backup on a mechanical locking mechanism, which prevents locking of the firing pin so that it can not be withdrawn before firing.
  • Another second safety device independent of the first safety device essentially comprises a control unit, an electronic decoder and an electronic driver stage.
  • the control unit is formed by a block which realizes a tensioning or non-tensioning of the firing pin. Included in the block is, inter alia, a motor that drives a drive pinion and a gear. By the gear a disc is moved, which releases a space for the entry of the rod for tensioning the firing pin. If clamping is to be prevented, this space is closed.
  • the activation of the control unit is possible only with knowledge of a coding that can be entered via a keyboard of a separate, connectable to the block operation. This is to avoid unauthorized use of the revolver.
  • DE 10 2009 01 1 939 A deals with a locking device for a closure, wherein the closure or closure carrier is subordinated by a wedge-like block which can be displaced vertically to the closure and locked therewith.
  • the firing pin or ignition trigger takes place via kinematics.
  • the kinematics combines two mechanical, mutually acting fuses.
  • the kinematics comprises a rocker-like mounted about a pivot point first lever, which acts with another second lever on the firing pin.
  • the second fuse is realized by an insinuation of Zündnadelstrom as a parallel backup for the first backup by another lever. This lever cooperates with the first fuse, including a movable means that operatively connects the lever to the first fuse.
  • DE 10 2008 025 499 A1 relates to a remote-controlled operation of machine guns or guns.
  • an adaptable magnetic carrier frame is integrated at the rear end or at the bottom of the weapon, preferably in place of the shoulder support of a machine gun, and in these a trigger magnet and a securing magnet ideally mounted. Both magnets ensure that the safe operating state is achieved in the event of a fault. In addition, there must be no entry into the operating sequence if there is an error.
  • a safety magnet to a known Hubhaltemagnet is replaced by a Hubhaltemagnet with redundant holding winding. From the first error firing is interrupted or suppressed to comply with the order of operations, or not to allow their introduction.
  • the previous solenoid is replaced by a reversing solenoid, allowing for single-fire shooting and rapid single-fire shooting. This measure is intended to ensure that the weapon can be converted from a manual operation to a remote-controlled operation and used accordingly.
  • a device for increasing the safety in the operation and shot firing of a heavy machine gun or a similar weapon, in particular on a carriage is known.
  • This includes a firing device an adjustment and a manual emergency operation, which by means of Control cable can fire the weapon.
  • Another operated with external force adjustment is attached to the rear end of the weapon.
  • This element can catch the lock in the rearmost return position opposite to the pipe by means of a lever mechanism and hold or release and unlock as a single shot switch. This ensures that it comes in case of failure of the firing pin lock to an unwanted shot triggering.
  • the invention has the object to show a firing pin safety device that can be used for a particular unmanned gun.
  • the basic approach is to add a further electric remote-controlled security device to a mechanical firing pin safety, the principle is that a firing is possible only when the firing pin is unlocked both locally mechanically and electrically via the remote control.
  • Both fuses are functionally linked together, i. the mechanical fuse and the remote-controlled electrical fuse are structurally interwoven and form a unit.
  • the weapon is only then "unlocked" - ie ready for firing with a released firing pin - transferred, if the weapon has been unlocked both remotely and mechanically unlocked on the gun.To unlock the weapon, the order of the two (partial) Arming arbitrarily.
  • a known Bowden cable mechanical release extended in a guide rod, which carries a U-shaped bulge.
  • the guide rod engages positively in an opening at the lower end of the piston for firing pin safety.
  • An electrically operated motor / gear unit can rotate over two spur gears, the guide rod a predetermined angle about its axis.
  • the Bowden cable is operated by the manual fuse (also on site) whereas the motor belongs to the remote controlled (electric) arming.
  • the part of the guide rod is located within the opening at the lower end of the piston, which is not bent in a U-shape. If in the manually secured state via the remote-controlled unit a release is to be made rotates the guide rod in the opening, but without lifting the piston up in the firing pin releasing position. The weapon remains secure. Only by the manual release, the guide rod is pulled through the Bowden- train with its U-shaped bulge in the opening of the piston, whereby the piston is raised and the weapon is unlocked.
  • the angle of the guide rod is such that the piston can not be raised - regardless of whether the weapon is manually secured or unlocked.
  • the guide rod produces a positive mechanical connection between the Bowden cable and the firing pin safety device.
  • the possibility is excluded that the piston is jammed, although the cannon was mechanically secured or the Bowden cable was tightened. Again, a firing is possible only when the firing pin both (for example locally) mechanically, as well as electrically over the remote control, which drives the actuator, is unlocked.
  • a guide rod clearly indicates the position of the piston. In order for the piston to be brought into the unlocked position, two conditions must be met:
  • the guide rod must be tightened so that the eccentric part is below the piston (local mechanical locking).
  • the illustrated embodiment is also designed to be particularly safe. If the terminal voltage drops on the motor, either by a wanted control signal or because of a power failure, the guide shaft / eccentric shaft is automatically brought into its original position by two prestressed torsion springs (fail-safe). If one torsion spring breaks, then the bias of the other is sufficient to secure the cannon. However, the failure of the torsion spring must be detectable so that it can be replaced. If the Bowden cable trip, the guide rod is pushed forward by the compression spring and the cannon is secured.
  • the remote-controlled firing pin safety device also provides inputs for other safety signals already present on the gun (eg emergency stop, emergency stop, fire-enable, man-aloft, etc.). This ensures that the safety is also created if the actuation of the local control element to prevent the remote controlled Entsorgern is forgotten.
  • every safety-relevant function is designed redundantly, for example to detect errors due to leakage currents.
  • the end positions of the firing pin safety device are preferably detected with sensors (secured, unlocked). If the input signals of the remote-controlled firing pin safety device are also detected, the correct functioning of the firing pin safety device can be monitored with a simple logic (software or analogue), which again eliminates a hazard.
  • the U-shaped bent guide rod can be replaced by an eccentric shaft, against which the piston is pressed by spring force.
  • An eccentric shaft specifies the position of the piston.
  • the eccentric part of the eccentric shaft must point upwards (remote-controlled release).
  • a first section is the eccentric.
  • the radius increases linearly with the angle (Archimedean spiral); while the difference of the radii corresponds to the stroke of the piston.
  • the shaft can be stored so that it rests on an axle.
  • a bore is attached to one end of the shaft.
  • the radius is constant. It may only be either the first or second section below the piston.
  • the axial play is limited by the storage. However, so that the shaft can take only two positions stationary, the Bowden cable must be locked as before, otherwise the eccentric shaft is brought by the compression spring in the starting position.
  • a flange is attached between the first and second sections.
  • the slope of the flange must not be too small, otherwise the eccentric shaft is too long.
  • too great a slope of the flange can cause the cannon can be unlocked manually only with considerable effort.
  • the axial switching path of the eccentric shaft must be chosen suitably.
  • the firing pin safety device of a gun can be unlocked remotely: This allows the ready-to-use gun (ie manually unlocked) to be secured shortly before use, which generally increases safety. In addition, the security for local work on the gun is ensured (manual backup on site). The correct function of the fuse can be tested automatically and manually if necessary. The weapon achieves an additional level of security, which meets the requirements of security and operability of the troops at the same time.
  • 1 is a representation of an installation of a Schalgbolzens and a fuse, 2 a combined firing pin safety,
  • Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of the combined firing pin safety.
  • Fig. 1 shows an installation position of a firing pin 12 and a Schalgolzenrion 1 1, as is known in the prior art.
  • the firing pin 12 is hereby positioned in extensions of the tube axis 14 such that it is placed in front of a firing cap 8 of a cartridge 9 within a bottom piece 10.
  • the firing pin 12 is movably mounted in the tube axis direction and is secured by the firing pin safety device 1 1.
  • the firing pin safety device engages with an opening in the rear part of the firing pin 12.
  • the firing pin safety 1 1 in height is adjustable. If the firing pin safety device 1 1 is adjusted by the piston rod 13, it releases the firing pin 12.
  • the piston rod 13 is itself part of a block 14 and is moved by the piston 14 against a spring, not shown.
  • Fig. 2 shows a first variant of an inventive, so combined firing pin safety device 1, which can be integrated in approximately at a marked in Fig. 1 with A point.
  • the piston 14 of a mechanical firing pin safety device 2 has at its lower end 14a an opening 14b, through which a guide rod 16 bent in a U-shape is guided.
  • the rod 16 is movably mounted along its axial direction and can be axially displaced against a compression spring 17 via a Bowden cable 16a belonging to the manual safety device 2.
  • An electrically operated motor / gear unit 18 as part of an electric (remote-controlled) firing pin safety device 3 drives the guide rod 16 of the mechanical firing pin safety device 2 via two spur gears 19, 20 and puts them into rotation against the bias of a torsion spring 21. If the guide rod 16 is in an axial position, with the U-shaped deflection lying within the opening of the piston 14, the piston 14 can be raised and the firing pin 12 released when the rotation of the guide rod 16 by the remote-controlled motor / gear unit 18.
  • the electrical connection is in the simplest case (Fig. 3) via the signal of the remote control (Release Safety Catch) and a signal of manual release via a local actuator (Inhibit Safety Catch Release). Both signals are passed through an AND comparator (6), which transmits a control signal to the actuator of the remote-controlled firing pin safety device, whereby the weapon is finally unlocked.
  • lines and the AND Comparator double executed. Both output signals of the comparators are in turn compared before the actuator is triggered.
  • additional signals are interrogated before triggering the actuator, e.g. a manual safety switch (MAS, man aloft switch) or an emergency stop (emergency stop).
