Claims.
This invention has to do with a flying target and it is a general object of the invention to provide a simple, practical, improved target of the type used in operations commonly referred to as trap shooting or skeet shooting.
The present invention is primarily concerned with a target to be handled or projected by launching apparatus commonly employed in connection with skeet or trap shooting and the target that is provided is characterized by a thin, fiat, center portion, round in plan configuration, a curved or bowl-shaped flange B that projects from the periphery of the center, and a rim which is ring shaped and which is joined to or carried by the flange. In accordance with the invention the inner or concave side of the target as formed by the center flange and rim is smooth and plain, being gently curved to conform to the general contour of the structure, and being wholly without sharp or abrupt shoulders, ribs, ridges, or other such characteristics. The exterior of the target is characterized by certain structural features that result from the outer periphery of the ange being joined to one end of the rim at the inside thereof, by the rim being substantially polygonal in cross sectional conguration to have an outer periphery that extends axially of the target, and by a top end which is flat and unobstructed and which occurs in a plane normal to the axis of the target. The center is so joined to the inner periphery of the flange that its outer or topl side, which is preferably flat, is inset 'somewhat from the upper or top end of the target.
The exterior of the flange follows the general shape or contour of the flange and is therefore generally spherical in curvature. However, it has a portion of maximum diameter adjoining the rim and extending axially of the target while the remaining portion is stepped to present shoulders V.which are concentric with the axis of the target and extend parallel with the axis of the target. An outstanding feature of the `invention is the construction by which the flange and rim are made practical for handling and launching of the target and yet are so weakened as to readily fail when struck while in the course of flight. The invention provides a series of equally spaced grooves or channels in the exterior of the flange conned strictly to the flange and so formed, shaped, and proportioned as to give the structure the desired characteristics. The rim is provided with corresponding notches or channels which are confined to the outer peripheral portion of the rim. y
A general object of this invention is to provide .general character.
a target of the general character referred to which. can be economically manufactured of a material o r composition of materials such as are employed 1n articles of this character and which can be advantageously made within the limits or standards required for targets to be used in connection with skeet or trap shooting.;
Another object of this invention is to provide a target of the general character referred .to whlch 1s so formed and constructed as to have adequate strength to enable it to be easily and pract1cally handled and launched but which when 1n flight, is exceedingly fragile and is sub-I Ject to being fractured when struck by but one pellet from a load of shot such as is used in skeet or trap shooting. v lIt is a further object of this invention to provide a target of the general character referred to lpractical for shipment and handling, which. 1s such that 4it can be thrown or put into flight by conventional launching apparatus and which has -weakened points established as by grooves or notches which materially weaken it when in night, and make it subject to being readily fractured, while at the same time having little or no influence upon the desired flight characteristics. The various objects and features of my invent1on will be fully understood from the following detailed description of a typical preferred form and application of my invention, throughout which description reference is made to 'the accompanying drawings, in which: Y
'Fig 1 is a perspective view of the target provided by the present invention showing it from what will be termed the top and from one side.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the target. Fig. 3
is a side elevation of the target. Fig. 4 is a reduced bottom view or elevation and Fig. 5 is a detailed transverse sectional view taken as indicated by line 5-5 on Fig. 2. The target provided by this invention is preferably a unitary or integral body of suitable material such as the composition or mixture commoniy used in the manufacture of articles of this For purpose of example the target may be considered as being formed of a composition embodying or including about limestone and about 35% coal tar.
The article as provided byv this invention is characterized, generally, by a center A, a flange and is preferably in the nature of a dat round disc of uniform wall thickness. `'Ihe center is preferably located in a plane which is normal to the central axis of the target.
The flange B of the target is joined to and projects from the periphery of the center to be concentric with the center and it is preferably curved to be somewhat bowl-shaped. In practice the flange may vary in wall thickness at various parts and may, in general, be spherically curved. The inner peripheral portion' IIJ of the ange is somewhat inwardly turned or deflected and is the part of the flange to which the center A is connected, and it supports the center in a plane somewhat below or inward of the uppermost part or .edge II of the target. In the particular form of the invention illustrated the flange B iszofminimum wall thickness adjacent theipart'l'uandit increases somewhat in wall vthickness asitextends radially outward and axially to the outer peripheral portion I2, which is joined to 'the rim C.
The-outer wall or face I3 of the outerperi-ph- `eral portion I2 is curved Iand is concentric with the-axis of the target and extends a substantial distance axially of the target. The wall or face I4 of the iiange B, which extends betweenthe face' I3 and the innermost portion of the flange is convex and-may be substantially uniform in curvature as shown throughout the drawings. In
`vaccordance with the present invention several rib- -like projectionsor steps I are provided on the .convex face I4 of the flange and each step is s0 formed as to have an outer face I6 curved con- `centricfwith Athe axis of the target and extending axially ofthe target and a at face Il which .is in a plane normal to'the longitudinal axis of the target. The several steps I5 vary in diameterfand in the case illustrated there are three :such-steps.
The rim C is a ring-shaped element substantially polygonal in cross sectional coniiguration.
Afseries' of grooves or lines of weakening is es- Ytablis-he'dinthe flange portion B ofthe target. v
thisbeingthe size common'fcr targets of this 4 type, it is preferred to proportion the various parts about as shown in the drawing, in which case the notches 30 are made about 11e of an inch deep in the wall or face I4 of flange B, and are about of an inch in width.
The invention provides a series of notches 40 in the rim C of the target and it is preferred that .the notches 44I) `be made to-correspond -in number'and arrangement with the notches 3B so that there is a notch 40 in the rim radially outward of each notch that occurs in the flange. The notches 40 may, in practice, correspond in width fanddepth with the notches 30 and they preferably extend the entire length of the rim, that is. froxnth'et'op''endv 20'to the bottom end 24.
From Vthe foregoing description it will be ap- .;.parent how the .present invention provides a structure the exterior of which is such as appears in Figsfl,v 2 and 3 of the drawings. An important feature of the invention is the shape or con- -iiguration of the interior ofthe target,.and.from Fig. l5 of the drawings, it will be apparent'. how
the several elements or features vof the target may be joined or related .so thatthe inner surface or wall of the target is .plain and smooth'throughout, being entirely freeof sharp ridges, ledges. or protuberances likely tointerfere with stable flight and proper operation of` the target.
It is to be understood'thatthe Various features of the target asrhereinaboveV described'may, yin practice, be slightly pitched or modified in lorder -to-provide drift enabling thetarget to be economically molded, for example, in practice the -notches 38 and 4i) are not necessarily angular or sharp cornered, 'but' thefsides may be made to converge inwardly vsomewhat and the bottoms may be slightly. rounded.
From the foregoing Adescription-it will be apparent that the invention'hasprovided a target conforming, generally, `with standards followed in the manufacture ofarticles of this type, while at thefsamev timeI thetarget, when spinning and .in ilightis highly vulnerableto-impact. It has been found that impact representative of about one and one half pellets is necessaryto break .an Aordinary target in fiight,ywhereas-impact corresponding toabout one half a pellet is al1 that is necessarytofracture the target of -.the present invention. In spite Vof the vulnerability to -fracture the'ta'rgetofy the present invention is suchthat itcan be handled economically and lwith minimum breakage .and can be-operated from usual' launchingY equipment without undue breakage.
Having 'describedonly-a typical preferred form .and application foff my inventiom do not'wish to be limited 'or restricted to i the specific details herein set forth/but wish to reserve to myself any variations or modifications that may appear to those skilled 'in the art and fall within the scope of thefollowing claims.
