  • Publication number: 20160279494
    Abstract: An improved target for flying disc games, such as disc golf, where the target consists of a pole mounted weight holder, basket, and base where the weight holder, basket, and base components, after disassembly, are reconfigured in such a manner to create a handled container holding the principal target components. The resulting portability facilitates ancillary requirements beyond the principle target function, such as shipping, transporting, storing and stacking, making the device more useful to manufacturer and operator.

  • Patent number: 5325619
    Abstract: Fishing trawl device comprised of an outer net and inner net of differing mesh sizes that excludes undesirable objects and organisms incidental to trawling. The device consists of an outer net of net mesh size as may be necessary or legally prescribed to contain a particular species and an inner net of larger net mesh size relative to the netting comprising the outer net, as may be necessary or legally prescribed to filter and exclude objects or organisms. The outer and inner nets are joined at the forward extremity of the device and are connected at the aft end of the inner net to an opening in the body portion of the outer net by an inner tubular section of fabric or netting. The inner tubular section of fabric or netting prevents escape of the target species by protecting the opening in the body portion of the outer net, while facilitating the exclusion of objects or organisms.
