Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Waffensystem, umfassend eine Feuerwaffe (2) und eine zugeordnete Visiereinrichtung (3) mit einer elektrischen ein- und ausschaltbaren Beleuchtungseinrichtung (10), wobei einem zwischen einer ersten und einer zweiten Position bewegbaren Sicherungselement (5) der Feuerwaffe (2) ein Permanentmagnet (6) zur Erzeugung eines magnetischen Feldes zugeordnet ist. Der Visiereinrichtung (3) ist ein MME-Sensor (7) zum Messen der magnetischen Feldstärke des Permanentmagneten (6) im Bereich der Visiereinrichtung (3) zugeordnet, wobei bei einem durch eine Stellungsänderung des Sicherungselements (5) samt Permanentmagnet (6) bedingten Passieren eines definierten Grenzwertes der magnetischen Feldstärke die elektrische Beleuchtungseinrichtung (10) mittels einer Steuerungselektronik (11) betätigbar ist, um ein Aufleuchten der Beleuchtung zu erwirken und beim durch eine rückführende Stellungsänderung bedingten Passieren eines weiteren definierten Grenzwertes ein Erlöschen der Beleuchtung zu erwirken. Die Erfindung betrifft des Weiteren eine Visiereinrichtung (3) und zwei Verfahren zum Waffensystem (1). Schließlich betrifft die Erfindung zwei Vorrichtungen zur Durchführung des ersten Verfahrens. Mit der Erfindung wird ein berührungsloses und energiesparendes Schalten der Absehenbeleuchtung in robuster Ausführungsform ermöglicht.

The invention relates to a weapon system comprising a firearm (2) and an associated sighting device (3) with an electric lighting device (10) which can be switched on and off, wherein a securing element (5) of the firearm (2) is movable between a first and a second position. a permanent magnet (6) is associated for generating a magnetic field. The sighting device (3) is associated with an MME sensor (7) for measuring the magnetic field strength of the permanent magnet (6) in the region of the sighting device (3), wherein at a passing caused by a change in position of the securing element (5) together with the permanent magnet (6) a defined limit of the magnetic field strength of the electric lighting device (10) by means of an electronic control unit (11) is actuated to cause a lighting of the illumination and to obtain a lapse of the illumination in the conditional on a returning position change passing another defined limit value. The invention further relates to a sighting device (3) and two methods to the weapon system (1). Finally, the invention relates to two devices for carrying out the first method. With the invention, a non-contact and energy-saving switching of the reticle lighting is made possible in a robust embodiment.
