  • Patent number: 9448043
    Abstract: An interactive target assembly is disclosed and claimed herein wherein the target assembly is meant to provide real-time feedback to a shooter or other remote onlooker. The shooter or other party can visually detect a strike to the target by way of a high powered LED light that is in wired communication with a target control module. The target control module is thereby in wireless communication via a multi-channel receiver with a remote control and an impact detection module. The impact detection module detects an impact to the target, sending a signal to the target control module, which illuminates a light to indicate a strike.

  • Publication number: 20040169414
    Abstract: A laminate wheel protector (10, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 180) includes layers of canvas cloth impregnated with synthetic resin that is polymerized through heat and pressure for insulating a hub or drum of a machine from a wheel. A method for creating a laminate wheel protector (10, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 180) includes applying pressure to layers of canvas saturated in synthetic resin, applying heat to polymerize to create a laminate, cutting the laminate to form an outer circular circumference, an inner circular opening and a plurality of bolt holes. The laminate wheel protector (10, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 180) has numerous advantages including preventing oxidation, rust, and galvanic electrolysis between metallic surfaces, reduce heat transfer and vibration, increase longevity and provide proper contact between metallic surfaces among numerous other advantages.
