Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3037139A1] A weapon for a fencing discipline 1 is described, which is usable for sports or games, and which is suitable to be connected to a detection apparatus 2 provided with at least a first 21 and a second apparatus terminal 22. The fencing weapon 1 comprises a percussion element 11, having a percussion portion 12 suitable to deliver a hit on a target X, and an electrical device 10, incorporated in the weapon 1. The aforesaid electrical device 10 comprises a reference terminal Tr, adapted to be connected to the first apparatus terminal 21 to receive a reference electrical potential Vr, and a measuring terminal Tm, adapted to be connected to the second apparatus terminal 22 to supply an electrical measuring potential Vm. The electrical device 10 further comprises a first contact terminal Tc1 and a second contact terminal Tc2, arranged so as to come simultaneously into contact with the target X when the aforesaid percussion portion 12 delivers a hit on the target X. The electrical device 10 is configured to take a signalling condition when it is connected to the detection apparatus 2 and at a hit has been delivered on the target X by the percussion portion 12, wherein the reference terminal Tr is kept at the electrical reference potential Vr and is further electrically connected to the first contact terminal Tc1; the first and the second contact terminals (Tc1, Tc2) are adapted to be electrically connected by means of a target portion X comprised there between so as to apply a detection voltage ”V, depending on the electrical reference potential Vr, to such a target portion; and furthermore either the first or the second electrical contact (Tc1, Tc2) is electrically connected to the measuring terminal Tm, so that the electrical measuring potential Vm takes a signalling value S, depending on the electrical reference potential Vr and the detection voltage ”V. A fencing equipment and a hit detection method using the aforesaid weapon are also described.
