Embodiment Construction

[0028]In the best mode, the present apparatus 50 (FIGS. 3, 4, 7, 10, 15) forms a storage enclosure for the containment and rapid retrieval of self-defense weapons 76 secured to attachment structures 61 with retaining devices 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74 (FIGS. 8, 9, 10). A release bar 57 operates a latch release mechanism 59 (FIGS. 1, 10) thus retracting the latch(es) 58, allowing the compression spring(s) 66 to pivot the door 64 to an open position by hinge(s) 65 without additional assistance. When the door 64 is in the closed position, a lock 60 prevents operation of the latch release mechanism 59.

[0029]Attachment structures 61 (FIGS. 2, 5, 6, 7, 8,9, 10) located on the interior of the door 64 and the storage enclosure 51 provide locations to which retaining devices 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75 can be attached, providing securement of self-defense weapons 76 (illustrated are various firearm types, however a user may elect to employ alternate weapon types). The attachment structure...

Abstract

A storage enclosure of ample size to contain common firearms within, comprising a box with a door attached to the top of the box with articulating hinges, that latches at the bottom of the box. A latch release mechanism at the bottom of the box, with a release bar on the exterior of the bottom of the box, which when pressed inward, releases the latches and allows the door to open unassisted by the user via the force of compression springs. Within the interior of the storage enclosure are slatted attachment structures—both on the interior of the box and the interior of the door—to which a vast array of self-defense weapons can be mounted with retaining devices of various type (hooks, pegs, etc.). To the storage enclosure assembly is attached cladding elements—legs, panels, fascia—to make a bed headboard.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates structures that provide an enclosure with adequate interior volume to store most common long guns and smaller weapons, the interior of which contain attachment structures to which most types of personal weapons can be mounted securely, having a door which opens, unassisted by the user, by the simple pushing action of a release mechanism. Upon the opening of the structure, the user then has available within arm's reach a weapon of choice for defensive purposes, which the user has previously placed in a convenient position of their choosing. The illustrated structure is a bed headboard with an enclosure therein, but it is contemplated that that the present innovation is not limited to only headboards or furniture. Instead, the present innovation can be incorporated into any vertical structure wherein a person can activate the release mechanism and quickly access the contents.[0002]Responsible gun owners want to store their...
