摘要:
A system and method for operating, at a near location, a safety-critical device located at a far location. The system includes a first operating input device to be operated at the near location, providing a first barrier control signal; and a second operating input device to be operated at the near location, providing a second barrier control signal. The first barrier control signal is communicatively connected to a near end of a first secure communication tunnel through the non-secure communication network, and the second barrier control signal is communicatively connected to a near end of a second secure communication tunnel through the non-secure communication network. A far end of the first secure communication tunnel is communicatively connected to an activating input of a first barrier circuit, and a far end of the second secure communication tunnel is communicatively connected to an activating input of a second barrier circuit.

A trigger control assistance device that allows a firearm user to focus on pulling a trigger without concern over trigger release. That is, a finger extension is provided to interface the user's finger during firing of the firearm. The extension is configured to reciprocatingly displace the user's finger from the trigger at a controlled rate. This, in turn provides enhanced control for the user who may now focus on aiming and pulling the trigger without undue concern over releasing the trigger. Added features such as an adjustable rate of fire and GPS enabling and disabling of the firearm may also be incorporated into the trigger control assistance device.

Among other things, methods and apparatus regarding collection, dissemination and display of information concerning paintball loaders and markers are disclosed. A loader includes a heads-up display, electronic devices for gathering, storing and disseminating information, and an antenna for sending and receiving data. Wireless voice communications among paintball players is possible via associated headsets. There is also disclosed paintball equipment and methods for controlling both the firing and loading mechanism of paintball equipment. Current systems or mechanisms have individual and discrete electronic control systems for firing operations, e.g. located in the paintball gun itself, and loading operations, e.g. located inside the paintball loader. The present disclosure unifies the electronic control of said firing and loader operations into a single electronic circuit board located on either the paintball gun or paintball loader.

The object of this invention is a method to shoot an object from a flying apparatus. Into an flying apparatus, into certain part of it, like a container that consists at least of a bottom and a shell a spring will be placed, like a push spring that has been loaded in a tense state and that is locked in this position using a fixing organ and further there will be put as an extension of the spring an object to be shot out from the flying apparatus. The fixing organ is thread, metal cord, bar, strip, rope, line, or some combination of these and tension strength (T) is greater than the tension load of the push force (F) to the mentioned fixing organ. the tension strength (T) of the fixing organ is weakened to be less than the mentioned tension load by heating, burning, or melting the mentioned fixing organ by electric energy when the fixing organ breaks, the spring expands into the direction of the object and the push force (F) pushes the object out of the container and off the flying apparatus. The apparatus that is used in the present method is also an object of the invention.

A method for aiding repeated firing of a semiautomatic firearm having a trigger and a bolt includes means for detecting that the bolt has translated rearwardly at least a first predetermined distance due to firing the firearm, means for calculating a particular time when the bolt will be in a chambered position, responsive to detecting that the bolt has translated rearwardly at least the first predetermined distance and, means for applying a forward biasing force to translate the trigger from a fired to an un-fired position, at the particular time the bolt is in the chambered position, and subsequently removing said forward biasing force.
摘要:
Exemplary methods and apparatus for testing an electrically fired item, e.g., a primer-only cartridge or all-up round (AUR) cartridge, in a variety of modes are provided. For example, a test system may provide a method of testing a primer-only cartridge and an apparatus to execute such method. Various parameters associated with operation of the electrically fired item, such as a primer or initiator, may be varied and measured using an embodiment including programmable selection of a pulse duration for firing control signals, a voltage of the firing control signals, and a number of pulses associated with the firing control signals. An inline resistance of the path of the control signals may also be adjusted. Test data including temperature, pressure, voltage, and/or current associated with operation of the electrically fired item may be measured during tests and displayed on a display device.

A remote controlled projectile sighting and launching system (RCPSLS) is disclosed. In some embodiments, such a system can be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and can automatically facilitate moving targets, unmanned operation of a projectile launching device and automatic friendly-fire over-ride. In some embodiments, such a system can include network-linked components such as a plurality of auto-adjusting aiming units (AAAU), gimbaled robotic apparatuses (GRA), trigger activation devices (TAD), and transport vehicles (TRV). In some implementations, a plurality of shooters and/or command centers that are able to view and operate a plurality of AAAUs, TADs, GRAs, and TRVs from a remote location(s). The system can be configured to be capable of discerning friendly confirmed target coordinates (CTC) from enemy CTC and is able to launch a plurality of preselected projectiles (PP) from a plurality of preselected projectile launching devices (PPLD).

A stacked ordnance device provides a disposable and optionally non-reusable projectile weapon. A gun barrel can be formed by holding two half barrels together such that separating the halves exposes the length of the bore. Stacked ordnance devices have multiple projectiles, seals, and charges positioned sequentially in the gun barrel. A controller can electronically trigger igniters that ignite the charges and fire the projectiles. The device can have more than one gun barrel and the gun barrels can be made from plastic. Multi-barrel devices can have gun barrels arranged radially around and damped to a backbone.
摘要:
A firearm for mechanically and electronically firing a weapon including a trigger rotatably mounted to a sear and having an actuator attached thereto. A secondary sear is rotatably mounted to the sear, and a switch is mounted to the lower receiver behind the trigger and adapted to be contacted by the actuator when the trigger is pulled. An electronic circuit is electrically connected to the switch such that when the switch is contacted the circuit is energized to operate a prime mover that operates the firearm. The sear assembly may also comprise a main sear and an auxiliary sear controlled by a selector switch having cam surfaces and adapted to be rotated to a plurality of positions, wherein in a first position comprises a safety mode, a second position comprises a mechanical mode of fire and a third position comprises an electronic mode of fire.
