Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of armored knockdown target technology, and in particular to an armored knockdown target with distance judgment. Background Technology
[0002] Armored target inversion targets are devices used for military training, shooting drills, or weapons testing. They are mainly used to simulate the appearance and disappearance of armored targets (such as tanks and armored vehicles) on the real battlefield. They can automatically or manually control the inversion (i.e., showing and hiding) of the target according to training needs to improve the realism and complexity of the training. By controlling the inversion of the target, the appearance and disappearance of targets on the real battlefield can be simulated to train soldiers' shooting skills, reaction speed, and tactical awareness.
[0003] Meanwhile, existing armored knockdown targets usually require manual placement and installation at designated firing positions. Since armored knockdown targets lack distance judgment capabilities, trainees cannot know the actual distance to the target in real time, making it difficult to save and analyze training data. This hinders the provision of scientific basis for subsequent training and timely identification of problems, thus affecting the overall training effect. Utility Model Content

[0020] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] The core function of armored target take-off and landing is to simulate the appearance and concealment of enemy armored targets. The targets are usually designed in the shape of armored vehicles such as tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and can take off and land according to preset programs or operating instructions. This dynamic target can effectively simulate real battlefield situations, such as enemy armored vehicles suddenly appearing and moving from concealed positions, or quickly concealing themselves after being hit. Trainees need to react quickly the moment the target appears, aim and fire, which not only tests the soldiers' shooting skills, but also trains their reaction speed and psychological qualities.
[0022] Structurally, the armored knockdown target consists of several key parts. First is the target itself, the core component of the knockdown target. It is usually made of high-strength materials to ensure that it can withstand the impact of live-fire shooting. The target's shape is highly realistic, able to realistically simulate the appearance features of various armored vehicles, including the turret and body outline of tanks. To enhance the realism of training, the target surface is also painted with corresponding camouflage patterns to make it more concealed in different environmental backgrounds. Sensors and a target reporting system are installed inside the target, which can detect the shooting hit status in real time and feed the hit information back to the trainees. This instant feedback mechanism helps trainees understand their shooting effect in a timely manner, thereby adjusting their shooting posture and aiming method to improve shooting accuracy.
[0023] The tilting mechanism is another important component of the armored tilting target. It is responsible for driving the tilting action of the target and is usually composed of motors, hydraulic devices, or pneumatic devices. These driving devices can precisely control the tilting speed, tilting angle, and tilting time of the target according to preset programs or operating instructions. For example, the target can automatically tilt within a set time interval to simulate the intermittent appearance of enemy armored vehicles, or it can quickly fall down according to preset actions after being hit to simulate the state of being destroyed. The stability and reliability of the tilting mechanism directly affect the training effect and safety. Therefore, it needs to undergo strict quality inspection and performance testing during the design and manufacturing process.
[0024] The control system is the brain of the armored target knockdown system. It is responsible for receiving operating instructions, controlling the target's movements, and processing target reporting information. The control system typically consists of a control panel, a remote control, and a microprocessor. Operators can input instructions through the control panel or remote control to set parameters such as the target knockdown mode and knockdown time interval. The microprocessor controls the knockdown mechanism according to the input instructions and receives feedback information from the target reporting system, displaying the hit results on the control panel in real time. Modern armored target knockdown control systems also have intelligent functions, such as automatically calculating hit rates and analyzing shooting deviations, providing trainees with more comprehensive training data support.
[0025] In practical applications, armored knockdown targets can be flexibly configured and used according to different training needs. For example, in basic shooting training, the targets can be set to a simple knockdown mode to familiarize soldiers with the shooting process and basic operations. In tactical training, the targets can be combined with terrain features to simulate complex battlefield environments, such as appearing and concealing in valleys, jungles, or urban areas, to train soldiers' combat capabilities and tactical application capabilities in different environments. In addition, armored knockdown targets can also be used in conjunction with other training equipment, such as smoke generators and laser simulators, to further enhance the realism and complexity of the training.
[0026] The use of armored knockdown targets not only improves training efficiency and quality but also reduces training costs and risks. Traditional live-fire training requires a large amount of ammunition and manpower, while also needing to consider safety issues. Armored knockdown targets, by simulating real targets, reduce the number of live-fire exercises, thus reducing ammunition consumption and training costs. At the same time, since the targets are reusable, their service life is longer, further reducing the frequency and cost of replacing training equipment. In addition, the use of knockdown targets also improves training safety, avoiding personnel casualties and equipment damage caused by improper operation or accidents.
[0027] With continuous technological advancements, armored target practice is constantly being upgraded and improved. Modern target practice systems not only possess higher levels of intelligence and more realistic simulation effects, but also seamlessly integrate with information-based training systems, enabling real-time transmission and sharing of training data. For example, through network connections, trainees can conduct shooting training simultaneously from different locations, and their shooting data can be uploaded to the training command center in real time for instructors to analyze and evaluate. This information-based training method not only improves the efficiency and scientific rigor of training but also provides strong support for the reform and development of military training. As an advanced military training device, armored target practice, with its high degree of simulation, intelligent control, and flexible applications, provides powerful support for modern military training. It not only effectively improves soldiers' shooting skills and combat capabilities but also makes significant contributions to the modernization and informatization of military training. With continuous technological progress and innovation, armored target practice will play an even more important role in future military training.
[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the armored target with distance judgment includes a fixed box 1 and a connecting frame 2. The upper end of the fixed box 1 is equipped with the connecting frame 2 for fixing the target. It also includes a visual rangefinder camera 3, a sealing cover 6, a target plate 8, a connecting block 9, a buffer block 11, a drive motor 12, and a load-bearing plate 15. The visual rangefinder camera 3 is installed inside the fixed box 1. The fixed box 1 has a fixing slot for accommodating the visual rangefinder camera 3. One end of the visual rangefinder camera 3 is located on the outer wall of the fixed box 1 and a transmission module 4 is installed. The visual rangefinder camera 3 and the transmission module 4 are electrically connected. The connecting frame 2 has a target plate 8 that is easy to disassemble and replace. Several sets of connecting blocks 9 are fixed to the outer end of the target plate 8. Each set of connecting blocks 9 has screws inside. The target plate 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 2 by screws.
[0029] Please see Figures 2-4 Inside the fixed box 1, a drive motor 12 is installed on one side of the visual rangefinder camera 3. One end of the drive motor 12 is provided with a drive rod, which passes through the fixed box 1 and is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 2. Inside the fixed box 1, on one side of the drive motor 12, a spring-loaded frame 13 is provided. A strong spring is installed inside the spring-loaded frame 13. A spring rubber damper is installed inside the strong spring. One end of the strong spring is provided with a connecting rod, which passes through the fixed box 1 and is fixedly installed to the connecting frame 2. A sealing cover 6 is installed on one side of the fixed box 1. A connecting plate 7 is provided between the sealing cover 6 and the fixed box 1. The sealing plate is fastened to the fixed box 1.
[0030] Please see Figures 3-5The connecting frame 2 has several sets of connecting plates 10 fixed inside, and two sets of buffer blocks 11 fixed at the outer end of the connecting frame 2. The outer wall of the fixed box 1 is equipped with a control button 5 on one side of the transmission module 4. The outer end of the fixed box 1 is equipped with a docking plate, which is electrically connected to the visual rangefinder camera 3. The lower end of the fixed box 1 is welded with a load-bearing plate 15. The inner corner of the load-bearing plate 15 is equipped with a positioning pin 16. The upper end of the load-bearing plate 15 is equipped with a rubber block 14 on one side of the connecting frame 2.
[0031] When armored target practice is required, the fixed box 1 is moved to the designated location first. Based on the training needs, the visual rangefinder 3 uses optical principles and image processing technology to accurately measure the distance between the firing point and the target plate 8, providing more stable measurement results in complex battlefield environments. After the fixed box 1 is adjusted and installed in the designated position, the plug is connected to the connector for power supply, ensuring stable information transmission between the visual rangefinder 3 and the transmission module 4. Next, using tools, the positioning pin 16 is inserted into the load-bearing plate 15 to limit the fixed box 1's movement and prevent it from shaking or shifting. After the fixed box 1 is installed, the target plate 8 is snapped into the connecting frame 2 and secured with screws threaded through the connecting block 9 to the connecting frame 2, facilitating subsequent target plate installation. 8. Rapid replacement and adjustment in case of damage: After the target plate 8 is fixedly installed, the trainee aims at the target plate 8 for target shooting training. When the target plate 8 is hit, gravity pushes the target plate 8 backward. The rubber block 14 and the buffer block 11 provide a certain buffer force for the connecting frame 2 to avoid direct impact with the ground and reduce the risk of damage to the target plate 8. After hitting the target plate 8, the drive motor 12 is started and connected to the drive rod and combined with the strong spring to assist the target plate 8 in rebounding and resetting, which is convenient for subsequent secondary training. When hitting the target plate 8, the visual range measuring camera 3 can measure and transmit distance data in real time for subsequent analysis and evaluation, timely detection and correction of problems. At the same time, the measurement range and accuracy can be flexibly adjusted according to different training needs to meet the requirements of different training subjects and difficulties.
