Abstract

1434689 Clay pigeon launcher J-M LAPORTE & J-C LAPORTE 27 June 1974 [9 July 1973] 28577/74 Heading A6D A device for manually launching a clay pigeon consists of a handle 1, a resilient blade 2 having an opening 3 in its upper edge, a stop 4 formed at the end of the opening remote the handle and a channel member 9 with two flanges 10 and 11 that is attached to the blade, the upper surface of the lower flange 11 being level with the base of the opening 3 to provide a surface on which the clay 8 rests prior to launching, the opening 3, the stop 4 and' the lower flange 11 holding the clay. During launching the device is rapidly moved, blade foremost, which causes the clay 8 to first disengage the blade 2 as the channel member 9 bends away from it, and then finally to be projected, the curved part 18 of the upper flange inducing spin and the lower flange 11 providing guidance. In another embodiment (Figs. 3 and 4) the stop is formed as a rib having a hard rubber cap (23) and the channel member 9 has its connecting end (27) formed to slide on the blade, a hole in the blade, a slot (29) in the channel and a screw (24) and wing-nut (25) allowing adjustment for different sizes of clay.
