Remotely Activated Firearm Accessory - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011728 titled 'Remotely Activated Firearm Accessory
Simplified Explanation
The invention is an electronic device that blocks access to a firearm's trigger. It is mounted on a rail or rail accessory and locked in place using a lock and frame. The device can fit a variety of firearms and can only be easily removed with the key. It operates using a battery and a printed circuit board capable of sending or receiving transmissions. When a transmission is picked up or sent and received, it activates the locking mechanism, allowing a slide in front of the trigger to move back and forth, enabling the movement of the firearm's trigger. The slide is returned to its original position by a spring-driven mechanism. When the device is out of the programmed range, the locking mechanism returns to its locked state, preventing access to the trigger.
- Electronic device mounted on a rail or rail accessory to block firearm trigger accessibility
- Lock and frame system to secure the device in place
- Battery-operated device with a printed circuit board for transmitting and receiving signals
- Electromechanical mechanism activated by transmitted signals to unlock the device
- Slide in front of the trigger acts as a second trigger, allowing movement of the firearm's trigger
- Spring-driven mechanism returns the slide to its original position
- Device locks again when out of the programmed range
Potential Applications
- Gun safety and prevention of accidental discharge

- Provides an additional layer of security for firearms
Original Abstract Submitted
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 a lock and frame allowing the device to fit an array of firearms. the lock and frame are in place to stop easy removal unless the possessor has the key to remove them. the device its self uses a battery to operate and picks up or sends a broadcasted transmission within a programmed range by the use of a printed circuit board (pcb) capable of receiving or sending a broadcasted transmission. once the transmission has been picked up or sent and received it activates the electronic devices locking mechanism in the form of a electromechanical mechanism causing it to shift 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 into its original position by the use of a spring driven mechanism. when the worn device or the electronic device is out of the programmed range, the electromechanical mechanism returns to its locked state stopping access to the trigger. making the trigger locking device a beneficial reusable safety device.
