The slide and the guided element are mounted movably in translation along the slide.

Abstract: The invention has for object a mechanical target-launching machine comprising a loading system 1 and an actuator 3 which are disjointed from one another. The actuator 3 and the loading system 1 are connected to one another by a power transmission device 2. Said power transmission device 2 is a flexible element and preferably an arming cable 21. An energy accumulator 6 allows energy to be stored so that it can be released abruptly and allow the launching of a target 29.

Abstract: A machine for launching targets, comprising a chassis on which a support is mounted. A barrel is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation, the barrel comprising a plurality of columns for storing stacked targets. The columns each have an axis parallel to the axis of rotation. The chassis comprises a surface for receiving targets for a launch, the support comprising a hole configured to allow the passage of a target from a column of the barrel to the receiving surface. The support comprises a first locking position with respect to the chassis and at least a second locking position with respect to the chassis, the first position and the second position having an angular offset along the axis of rotation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for launching targets for sport shooting, with instantaneous take-off of the target which comprises first and second means for locking the rotation of the arm associated with the motor means and cooperating with complementary locking means inserted between the launching means and the arm rotating shaft, with the locking means being so configured as to lock the arm beyond the “zero point” over an angular sector set beforehand according to the direction of rotation of the arm in a launching position and so as to release the arm beyond the launching position, with the launching means expanding so as to execute the rotation for launching the target. Applications in the field of sport shooting, both rifle shooting or revolver shooting and in archery.

Abstract: Device for launching targets comprising a surface supporting a target to be launched and a launch arm capable of applying a launch force to the target, characterized in that the supporting surface includes frictional means for rotating the target when it is launched by the launch arm. Application in particular to launching archery targets.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a target launching machine (1) having a circular section portion, said machine comprising a launching arm (2) able to rotate about an axis of rotation (3) and a bearing surface (4) of the circular portion section, characterized in that the bearing surface (4) has an 10 offset portion configured so that the distance between the trajectory of the launching arm (2) and the offset portion increases in the direction of rotation of the launching arm (2).

Abstract: A target (1) for archery training, which is to be launched into the air and is suitable for being hit by an arrow, includes at least two mutually opposing surfaces, at least one of which forms a surface for receiving arrows, characterized in that at least one receiving surface has at least one surface relief (3a, 3b).
