Projectile target with hit indicator
11454478 · 2022-09-27 · ·

The present invention provides an improved target system for use by target shooters. The target system includes any target that is solid enough to transfer a portion of the impact to the frame supporting the target. An impact sensor that is independent from the target is attached to the frame supporting the target. When the target is hit by a bullet, the impact causes the impact sensor to light an indicator light to indicate that the target was hit. In some embodiments, the indicator light is housed in a housing that includes an adjustable lens to focus the light and concentrate its direction toward the shooter. In other embodiments, a remote indicator light is utilized and the impact sensor sends a radio signal to the indicator light to cause it light up when the target is impacted.

Assembly-type physical dart target
11204223 · 2021-12-21 ·

An assembly-type physical dart target includes assembly plates, engagement strips, and a frame. Each assembly plate is formed by an arrow standing layer and a projection layer, and has surface gloss higher than that of the arrow standing layer. The arrow standing layer has two sliding slots disposed on two sides thereof, respectively, and each sliding slot has a retraction side disposed on a side edge thereof away from the projection layer. Each engagement strip has two protruding side edges and an assembly part disposed thereon, and each protruding side edge is engaged with the sliding slot. Therefore, the target can provide a good projection effect, and make image projection technology work well in physical throwing exercise, and has nice structural strength to form a large target, so that a user can quickly assemble the target or partially disassemble the target for replacing a damaged part.
