Description:
THE 'GUARDIAN' SMART RI FLE PROTECTION AND MONITORING SYSTEM WITH BIOLOGICAL DEFINITION REDUCED TO INDIVI DUAL RIFLE CHAMBER

Technical Field

The Guardian (rifle chamber) which reduced to individual and biologically defined intelligent rifle protection and monitoring system; three sides (top, bottom, side edges) closed, front is open and provides protection, preservation and security of firearms. Guardian pairing rifles and personnel in the system, preventing the use of unauthorized people, thus guards (rifle chamber) restricts the movement of the rifles on all axes (vertical, horizontal, diagonal, etc.), imprisoning the rifle inside the chamber keeping it safe for usage under specific system control parameters.

The rifle chamber is a prison system that does not allow unauthorized removal of the rifle from the system (rifle chamber) in full operational mode also which creates a barrier the use of rifle other than authorized personnel. If there are no personnel defined in the system by the higher authorities on that specific time period, system will not allow person to enter the storage place and take the rifle from the rifle chamber if the order has not been approved. Protection of the rifle is performed by mechanical, biological identification, electronic lock and multiple id systems. Besides having authorized user of the rifle, there shall be a system which enables the senior personnel to follow and monitor to be able to follow all the movements of the rifle during its life span with software algorithms.

The system has a database structure that keeps records of all movement of data with timestamps.

Ability to make and control statistical queries of the rifle by means of motion, data records, host user interfaces for the above-mentioned programs.

The structure can be adapted to personnel type guns other than rifles.

The size of the rifle chamber is adjustable according to any kind of rifles in the market. Hardware, software controlled electronic, biometric and mechanical lock system which allows the rifle chambers to be locked by both from the barrel and the butt.

The rifle chamber consists of two intertwined bodies and has a height stabilizer adjusting bolt. There is a software controlled electronic RFID reader placed in the rifle chamber so the system does not allow any other rifle except the paired one with that specific RFID reader accepted in order to ensure the correct rifle placed in the chamber.

Electronic RFID tag is embedded inside the rifle and identification of the rifle ensures that the rifle is kept in the paired rifle chamber.

The rifle chamber has an illuminated warning device to remotely detect the presence of a rifle.

Barrel and butt lock systems in rifle chambers allow ease of placement and removal of rifles by moving the rifles in vertical, horizontal and diagonal axis.

Allows authorized personnel to collectively release the complete lock systems of the rifle chambers by means of software in emergency situations.

The system is protected against power failure as well as an event of an electrical or physical failure which locks can mechanically be the released individually or collectively to free rifles. On the contrary, in the event of adverse emergency all chambers can be locked locally or generally not the reach of use.

In the system, the rifle chambers are mounted on a structure at the storage location, allowing them to be stored in bulk.

In case of a failure in mechanic or electronic system of the rifle chambers, it provides time and labor saving by allowing the defective chamber to be removed and repaired or replaced easily with a new one.

There are wedge slots and central locking shaft hooks in the structure that allows the rifle chambers fixed on the structure behind the storage place.

Locking the rifle chambers to the system by means of the central locking shaft and hooks which prevent the rifle chambers from being removed other than authorized people.

Allowing network configuration for computer connections by placing a certain number of control panels between the rifle chambers at the storage location in the system. There is an opening and closing lever of the central lock hook shaft which is used to lock the rifle chambers on the structure within the control panels.

In the control panels, the central locking hook shaft secures the system that locks the chambers on the structure by means of locking pins that lock the opening and closing arm with an additional lock. In control panels, there are the panels of the mechanical unlocking wires which enable the release of the locks in case of emergency and their pull handles.

In order to enter the location where rifle chambers are stored, pertinent personnel register their biological identification in advance.

Opening of the turnstile at the entrance of the place where rifles are stored can individually be released for the person whose identification of biological information (fingerprint, retina, face recognition, etc.) accepted by the system.

Personnel have to pair the electronic RFID tag placed on the rifle as well as the RFID reader on the kiosk along with the biological identification so that the system allows entering where rifle chambers storage location to deliver the rifles.

Provides an advantage that the rifle cannot be disassembled to remove from the chamber, except the system permits.

Keeping, reaching and controlling each rifle in the defined rifle chamber while rifles are not in use.

Since the system recognizes each rifle chamber and rifle separately, the desired rifle is released independently from the others when conditions met.

The authorities can see the instant inventory and general condition of all rifles in the system (maintenance times, breakdowns, rifle history, etc.).

Increased protection ensured by two way 'barrel and butt' locking system.

Personnel cannot take the rifle out of chambers except pre-defined times, thus minimizing the risk of personnel injury, rifle wear, theft, loss.

BACKGROUND

US 9,355,510 document covered by the protection, including sheif and barrel clamp system and biometric reader operating system is accessible to the majority of rifles can be removed and re-assembled in the place which allows re-use.

In the same system, since the rifle openings of the rifles remain open, it allows the barrel to intervene for involuntary purposes at the storage location. However, due to the fact that the locking mechanisms are exposed, it becomes very easy to intervene with external tools (sledgehammer, hammer, crowbar, spiral cutting motor, etc.) And thus the weapon can be taken in a very short time without damaging the weapon. In the system which is currently used in law enforcement and armed forces in our country, rifles are locked with padlock by passing chains or wire ropes through trigger slots. In this case, trying to protect a large number of rifles locked with chain or steel wires with a single padlock creates serious security weaknesses.

In this structure, all of the rifles including trigger mechanisms are accessible.

The fact that these rifles can be fired without disassembling the rifles due to their wide range of action allows all rifles to be exposed to all kinds of malicious intervention, resulting in undesirable consequences, including injuries or even death.

In the same institutions, inventory is made by means of personnel care which results in loss of time and labor and erroneous results from time to time that become highly vulnerable to abuse.

The 'Guardian' rifle chamber system consists of two main parts, the upper part of the main body of the rifle chamber 1/10 (A) and the lower part of the main body of the rifle chamber 1/10 (D). Upper body adjustment bolt by adjusting the upper body height adjustment channel to adjust the size of the rifle Figure 3/10 (E) Figure 3/10 (C) and lower body adjustment bolt hole threaded on the lower body Figure 3/10 (B). Mechanical assembly is completed by combining lower body part of the rifle chamber, which is the butt locking apparatus where the butt of the rifle is located in the lower body Picture 4/10 (Group 3), butt electromagnetic lock apparatus that locks the butt lock apparatus Figure 4/10 (P), steel wire which used to open the lock mechanically housing butt mechanical lock release Figure 4/10 (R), butt mechanical lock release connection by connecting steel wire to electromagnetic lock Figure 4/10 (S), butt locking canal for the movement of the butt jail apparatus Figure 4/10 (L) ), data and energy cables for transmitting and unlocking signals from the system and providing RFID communication, lower body RFID reader Figure 4/10 (II), data cables enabling communication between RFI D reader and server and computers, rifle for fixing the lower body in place in the warehouse chamber lower body lining frame chock slot Figure 5/10 (V).

The upper body part of the rifle chamber containing the barrel locking apparatus in the upper body Figure 2/10 (Group 1), the neck ring with the barrel end neck for holding the lock apparatus in the slot Figure 2/10 (F), the movement gap of the barrel lock apparatus allowing the movement of the barrel lock apparatus Figure 2/10 (NN), barrel electromagnetic lock apparatus for locking the barrel lock apparatus Figure 2/10 (FI), barrel mechanical unlocking wire with mechanical wire opening which locks the system Figure 2/10 (K), barrel connecting the steel wire to the electromagnetic lock mechanical unlocking wire connection device Figure 2/10 (I), rifle chamber upper body lining frame chock slot for fixing the upper body in the tank Figure 5/10 (T), data and energy cables which transmit the unlock and close signals from the system.

To establish the system, first there is a storage space, the rifle chamber body lining skeleton block with a skeletal structure to place the Guardians in the storage location Figure 5/10 (Y) is installed. After placing the guards in these wedges, the guards are locked on the frame by means of the rifle chamber body central locking shaft hooks Figure 5/10 (Z). In the storage location, a certain number of guards are placed between the control panels Figure 6/10 (BB).

Control panel Figure 6/10 (BB); the central locking shaft levers Figure 6/10 (CC), the central locking shaft pre-setting springs and seats holding the central locking shaft at the pre-setting Figure 6/10 (JJ), the central locking shaft lever locking pin box Figure 6/10 (DD), mechanical Figure 6/10 (EE), communication network cables and hub Figure 6/10 (KK) and control panel door locks Figure 6/10 (FF).

In order to provide cellular data transfer to each other this system may be connected one or more of 3G, 4G, 5G with wireless and/or wired network structures, a server and its connected computers, the database in which the data is recorded at the main software.

The RFID tag is placed in the rifles to be placed in the system and the rifle is identified and matched with the serial number of the rifle and recorded in the database.

The biometric data of the personnel who will be issued in the system and will use the rifle which defined in the system and the database is recorded and the system installation is completed.

After the installation is completed;

Personnel and rifle datum has to be issued to the network system to pick the rifle up at the time of arrival, then system checks the accuracy of biometric data and belonging rifle of the personnel to match. Followed by releasing of locks for personnel to enter the storage location and rifle chamber. At the same time, audible sign and light on chamber flashes along with the kiosk screen informs that personnel from chamber to take the weapon and unlocks the rifle chamber that paired with the system data. Simultaneously, predetermined time starts for the rifle to be removed from the chamber. After the rifle has been removed from its place within the specified time, the system automatically locks the chamber at the end of that period. The system locks itself even if the rifle is not taken within the specified time. In this case, the pairing cycle of the personnel biometrics and rifle acceptance period has to be restarted. This incident is also registered in the system records. When the personnel arrives to the storage location to deposit the rifle to the chamber, kiosk pairs with biometric data of personnel and the RFID tag embedded in the rifle. Following the pairing phase of the system with personnel and rifle, if datum match correctly, the relevant rifle chamber is unlocked following the system warning beeps and flashes light as well as specific rifle chamber's number is written on the kiosk. The system simultaneously starts the predetermined time for the rifle placed to its own chamber. Personnel to insert the rifle into the chamber, rifle is positioned into the chamber respectively from 15 to 45 degrees towards to the unlocked and released barrel house Figure 10/10 (LL) of the chamber Figure 2/10 (G). When inserting the barrel into the barrel house 2/10 (NN) with 15/45 degree thus placing the butt into the butt lock apparatus Figure 4/10 (LI) finally place the rifle in whole pushing the rifle forward Figure 4/10 (LL). puts the guard in the 90 degree placement position Figure 10/10 (MM) and snaps the rifle into the butt holder. When RFID reader in the chamber pairs with the RFID tag embedded in the rifle and personnel biometrics match then system automatically starts the predetermined time setting, therefore, the butt electromagnetic lock apparatus lock butt Figure 4/10 (P), the corresponding butt electromagnetic Figure 4/10 (M) into the lock hole and the barrel electromagnetic lock apparatus Figure 2/10 (FI) locks the corresponding barrel electromagnetic lock hole Figure 2/10 (PP) and finally locks the rifle from the barrel and butt. Allow personnel to leave the storage area without rifle. If the pairing verification does not occur, the system does not lock the chamber by giving an audible and light warning though forces the personnel to place the gun into the correct chamber by not unlocking the locks. System pairing and acceptance necessary for the personnel to leave the storage location with rifle and also system warns the local/ upper control personnel regarding incident.
