WIRELESS DEVICE FOR FIXATION OF PRICKS DURING FENCING ON EPEE Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC A63B69/02 

FIELD: sport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to equipment of sports equipment and is used for fixation of pricks in fencing. Wireless device for fixation of pricks during fencing on epee consists of an apparatus for fixation of pricks (AFP) located in the area of the middle of the path on the wall, table or floor, outside the path and two semi-sets (S/S) in the form of boxes fixed on the backs of athletes, each S/S is connected through an electrical connector (EC) with an epee having a tip, differs by the fact that a nozzle is put on the tip, which together with the spring-loaded movable button make a pair of contacts movable relative to each other and the tip housing, allowing to reliably not fix invalid pricks perpendicular to the surface and at an angle to it due to the use of an opponent's guard or a metal path as a conductor to create an electric circuit for shunting an electric circuit for fixing a valid prick, wherein the AFP receives messages on the valid prick from the S/S transmitters to the Wi-Fi receiver, programmable microcontroller (PMC) decodes them, when receiving a message on a valid prick from one of the S/S, the AFP switches on the corresponding light indication (red or green light) and a sound buzzer, turns on the program timer and starts counting 0.2 s, if before the expiration of this period of time a message on a valid prick arrives from the second S/S, then the AFP switches on the second lamp and fixes the double – mutual prick, if the message does not come, then one lamp is on – this is a "pure prick"; light and sound alarm operates for a programmable period of time and is switched off.

EFFECT: creation of a wireless device for fixation of pricks during fencing on epee is provided.
