Remotely activated firearm safety accessory

Abstract

The invention relates to an electronic device that is used to block the accessibility of a firearms Trigger. Wherein an electronic device is mounted on a rail or rail accessory and is locked in place using security screws and tamper proof fasteners allowing the device to fit an array of single action and striker-fired handguns. The security screws are in place to stop easy removal unless the possessor has the proper tool to remove them. The device its self uses a battery to operate and picks up a transmission broadcasted from a Bluetooth within its programmed range by the use of a Bluetooth proximity detector. Once the transmission has been picked up it activates its locking mechanism in the form of a solenoid causing its pin to lift and allows a slide placed In front of the trigger acting as a second trigger to move back and forth allowing the movement of the firearms trigger. The slide is moved back its original position by the use of a spring. When the Bluetooth is out of the device's proximity detectors programmed range the solenoid returns to its locked state stopping access to the trigger. Making the trigger locking device a beneficial reusable safety device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

(8) The device 1 consists of two pieces of casing consisting of two pieces 7a, 7b (FIGS. 1, 3, 4 and 7). A slide 6 is placed in the lower level of the casing 7, and a spring 17, is placed behind it (FIGS. 3 and 7). A solenoid 10, a battery 12 and a PCB board 14, containing a proximity detector 11, a mercury switch 13 (FIG. 5) are placed inside the casing. Two led lights 9 to show charging and power on state, and USB charging port 15, as well as wiring connecting the battery 12 and solenoid 10 are placed in the second level of the casing 7. Both pieces (7a, 7b of casing 7, are placed together and screwed into position with two snake eyed security screws 8. A gun rail connector 5 is placed on a single action or striker-fired hand gun rail. The casing that is screwed together is then slid onto the gun rail connector 5, and is secured and fastened into place using a two eyed security bolt 3. Once the position of the slide 6 is achieved such that it is covering the trigger 16 adequately, the snake eye security screw is fastened in place on the gun rail connector 5, where it connects with the hand guns weaver or picatinny rails slots. To properly operate said device the Bluetooth wrist worn device of FIG. 2 is placed on the hand you draw your gun with.
