Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of slingshot training equipment, and in particular relates to a projectile collection tray. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of slingshot training, as a sport that combines competitiveness and entertainment, slingshot training is not only an important way for professional athletes to improve their shooting accuracy, stability, and power control, but also a popular choice for enthusiasts to improve their physical fitness and cultivate concentration. In order to achieve excellent results in competitions, professional athletes need to undergo high-intensity and long-term training, firing hundreds or even thousands of projectiles every day, requiring extremely high continuity and efficiency in training. Meanwhile, amateur enthusiasts also hope to have a smooth training experience during leisure training and avoid having their training rhythm interrupted by the tedious projectile collection process.
[0003] Common projectile collection methods often involve simple target boxes or ground-laid cushioning mats. Due to the small size of the projectiles, they scatter in different corners inside the target box after hitting it. Manual retrieval requires a significant amount of time to search for each projectile, severely impacting training continuity and reducing training efficiency. Furthermore, simple target boxes lack effective projectile guidance structures, causing projectiles to bounce or roll after hitting them. This not only easily leads to projectile loss but may also result in projectiles being ejected outside the training area, posing a safety hazard of accidentally injuring others.
[0004] To address these issues, we provide a projectile collection tray. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a projectile collection tray. By combining the buffer target cloth, the target core and the tray, it solves the problems in the prior art where projectiles are scattered in different corners inside the target box, requiring a lot of time for manual retrieval, lacking an effective projectile guiding structure, and posing a safety hazard of accidentally injuring others.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.
[0007] This utility model relates to a projectile collection tray, comprising a target box, a buffer target cloth fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the target box, a target center disposed at the front end of the inner cavity of the target box, a tray fixedly connected to the bottom of the target box, a sleeve connected to the bottom of the tray, a connecting pipe connected to the bottom of the sleeve, and a tripod fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting pipe. The device uses the target box as its core carrier, and the target box has a cuboid structure. The buffer target cloth inside the target box can effectively absorb the impact energy of the projectile. The target center is fixedly installed at the center of the front end of the inner cavity of the target box by a return spring. The surface of the target center is printed with a clear annular target ring. To facilitate precision shooting practice, the bottom of the target box is fixedly connected to the tray by welding. The tray has a conical structure with a frosted inner surface to increase the friction of the projectile during rolling and prevent it from slipping inside the tray. The projectile passes through the sleeve and connecting tube in sequence and finally falls into the projectile collection box at the bottom of the tripod. The entire process requires no manual intervention, realizing full automation from the moment the projectile hits the target box to the completion of collection. Compared with the traditional manual collection method, it greatly saves the time for collecting projectiles after training, improves training efficiency, and avoids the problem of projectile loss that may occur with manual collection.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a projectile collection box is provided at the bottom of the tripod, and the connecting tube is a hollow tube structure. By setting the projectile collection box at the bottom of the tripod, the unused space at the bottom of the device is fully utilized to form a concealed and stable projectile storage area. The connecting tube adopts a hollow tube structure and is connected to the inner cavity of the sleeve and the tray to form a smooth projectile transmission channel. Under the action of gravity, the projectile can slide smoothly down the tray, sleeve and connecting tube into the collection box to achieve automatic collection.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the top of the connecting pipe is connected to the sleeve, and the top of the sleeve extends into the inner cavity of the tray. This ensures that the projectile will not experience jamming or blockage during transmission. The sleeve extends deep into the inner cavity of the tray, making the transition of the projectile from the tray into the sleeve more natural and smooth, reducing the possibility of the projectile bouncing or rebounding at the junction, and ensuring that the projectile can enter the collection path quickly and stably.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a positioning pin is threadedly connected to one side of the sleeve, and a handwheel is fixedly connected to one side of the positioning pin. The user only needs to rotate the handwheel to easily loosen the positioning pin. Due to the threaded connection, the positioning pin can be quickly removed from the sleeve. At this time, the fixed constraint between the tray and the connecting pipe is released, and the tray and the sleeve can be easily separated from the connecting pipe.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that an installation groove is provided on one side of the target box, and the buffer target cloth is disposed in the inner cavity of the installation groove. The buffer target cloth is subjected to the impact of the projectile for a long time and is prone to wear and damage. When it needs to be replaced, there is no need to disassemble the entire target box or perform complicated operations. It is only necessary to take out the old buffer target cloth from the installation groove and then insert the new buffer target cloth into the installation groove. The operation is simple and quick.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the tray has a conical structure and a circular hole is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the tray. The conical structure of the tray guides the projectile to automatically converge to the bottom by utilizing the principle of gravity. The inclined design allows the projectile to roll quickly along the inclined surface under the action of gravity after hitting the target box and falling into the tray. Compared with a flat tray, the projectile collection time is greatly shortened.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the tripod is a circular steel pipe, and there are three of them. The three circular steel pipes are circumferentially distributed on the surface of the connecting pipe. This structural design gives the device excellent stability. The three steel pipes are evenly distributed at 120°, which can evenly distribute the external force on the device. When the projectile hits the target box and generates an impact force, each steel pipe works together to bear the force, avoiding excessive pressure on a single support point and causing the device to tip over.
[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.
[0015] 1. This utility model employs a conical tray design. Its inclined slope structure fully utilizes the principle of gravity, allowing the projectile to smoothly slide into the projectile collection box at the bottom of the tripod. The entire collection process requires no manual intervention, achieving full automation from projectile interception to collection. Compared to traditional manual picking methods, this automatic collection mode significantly saves time in collecting projectiles, effectively reduces labor costs, and avoids the problem of projectile loss that may occur due to manual operation. It ensures that all projectiles are collected without omission, providing convenience for subsequent use and analysis.
[0016] 2. This utility model, through the use of a buffer target cloth, can effectively absorb the impact force of the projectile at the moment it hits the target core or the buffer target cloth, converting the kinetic energy of the projectile into the deformation energy of the buffer target cloth. This significantly reduces the rebound force of the projectile, greatly reducing the risk of injury from projectile rebound and providing reliable safety protection for training and testing personnel. The buffer target cloth directly bears the main impact force of the projectile, and through its own buffering effect, it reduces the impact borne by the target box, achieving effective dispersion and buffering of the projectile's impact force.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model is a projectile collection tray, including a target box 1, a buffer target cloth 2 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the target box 1, a target 3 set at the front end of the inner cavity of the target box 1, a tray 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the target box 1, a sleeve 5 connected to the bottom of the tray 4, a connecting pipe 6 connected to the bottom of the sleeve 5, and a tripod 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting pipe 6.
[0027] Specifically: The device uses a target box 1 as its core carrier. The target box 1 has a rectangular structure. The inner cavity of the target box 1 is equipped with a buffer target cloth 2, which can effectively absorb the impact energy of the projectile. The target core 3 is fixedly installed at the center of the front end of the inner cavity of the target box 1 by a return spring. The surface of the target core 3 is printed with a clear ring target, which facilitates the trainee to practice accurate shooting. The bottom of the target box 1 is fixedly connected to the tray 4 by welding. The tray 4 has a conical structure and its inner wall surface is frosted to increase the friction when the projectile rolls, preventing the projectile from slipping in the tray 4. The projectile passes through the sleeve 5 and the connecting tube 6 in sequence, and finally falls into the projectile collection box 8 at the bottom of the tripod 7. The whole process does not require manual intervention and realizes the full automation from the projectile hitting the target box 1 to the completion of collection. Compared with the traditional manual collection method, it greatly saves the projectile collection time after training, improves training efficiency, and avoids the projectile leakage problem that may be caused by manual collection.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 Based on Embodiment 1, a projectile collection box 8 is provided at the bottom of the tripod 7, the connecting pipe 6 is a hollow tube structure, the top of the connecting pipe 6 is connected to the sleeve 5, the top of the sleeve 5 extends to the inner cavity of the tray 4, a positioning pin 9 is threadedly connected to one side of the sleeve 5, a handwheel 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the positioning pin 9, an installation groove 11 is provided on one side of the target box 1, the buffer target cloth 2 is provided in the inner cavity of the installation groove 11, the tray 4 is a conical structure, a round hole 12 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the tray 4, the tripod 7 is a round steel pipe, and there are three of them, with the three round steel pipes distributed circumferentially on the surface of the connecting pipe 6.
[0030] Specifically: The projectile collection box 8 is placed at the bottom of the tripod 7, making full use of the unused space at the bottom of the device to form a concealed and stable projectile storage area. The connecting pipe 6 adopts a hollow tube structure and is connected to the inner cavity of the sleeve 5 and the tray 4, creating a smooth projectile transmission channel. Under the action of gravity, the projectile can smoothly slide down the tray 4, sleeve 5, and connecting pipe 6 into the collection box, realizing automatic collection. The top of the connecting pipe 6 is connected to the sleeve 5, and the top of the sleeve 5 extends into the inner cavity of the tray 4, ensuring that the projectile will not get stuck or blocked during transmission. The sleeve 5 extends into the inner cavity of the tray 4, making the transition of the projectile from the tray 4 into the sleeve 5 more natural and smooth, reducing the possibility of the projectile bouncing or rebounding at the junction, and ensuring that the projectile can enter the collection path quickly and stably. The user only needs to rotate the handwheel 10 to easily loosen the positioning pin 9. Due to the use of threaded connection, the positioning pin 9 can be quickly removed from the sleeve 5. At this time, the connection between the tray 4 and the connecting pipe 6 is closed. With the constraint released, the tray 4 and sleeve 5 can be easily separated from the connecting pipe 6. The buffer target cloth 2 is subjected to the impact of the projectile for a long time and is prone to wear and damage. When it needs to be replaced, there is no need to disassemble the entire target box 1 or perform complicated operations. Simply take the old buffer target cloth 2 out of the mounting groove 11 and then insert the new buffer target cloth 2 into the mounting groove 11. The operation is simple and quick. The tray 4 adopts a conical structure and uses the principle of gravity to guide the projectile to automatically converge to the bottom. The inclined design allows the projectile to roll quickly along the inclined surface under the action of gravity after hitting the target box 1 and falling into the tray 4. Compared with the flat tray 4, the projectile collection time is greatly shortened. Three circular steel pipes are distributed circumferentially on the surface of the connecting pipe 6. This structural design gives the device excellent stability. The three steel pipes are evenly distributed at 120°, which can evenly distribute the external force on the device. When the projectile hits the target box 1 and generates impact force, each steel pipe works together to avoid the device tipping over due to excessive pressure on a single support point.
[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During slingshot training, when the trainee fires a projectile and the projectile flies toward the target box 1, the bullseye 3 provides the trainee with a precise shooting target. When the projectile hits the target box 1, it first contacts the buffer target cloth 2 fixedly connected to the inner cavity, effectively dispersing and absorbing the impact force of the projectile, reducing the rebound force of the projectile, and protecting the internal structure of the target box 1.
[0032] After being cushioned by the target cloth 2, the projectile falls into the conical tray 4 under the influence of gravity. Because the tray 4 is an inverted cone, the projectile rolls rapidly along the inner wall of the tray 4 under the guidance of gravity and the inclined plane, converging towards the circular hole 12 at the center of the bottom of the tray 4. After passing through the circular hole 12 at the bottom of the tray 4, the projectile enters the sleeve 5, which is connected to it. The bottom of the sleeve 5 is connected to the hollow connecting pipe 6, which forms a stable channel for projectile transport. The projectile continues to slide down along the connecting pipe 6, eventually falling into the projectile collection box 8 located at the bottom of the tripod 7.
[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present utility model disclosed above are only used to help illustrate the present utility model. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the present utility model to specific implementation methods. The present specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principle and practical application of the present utility model, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and utilize the present utility model.
