Abstract: A belt buckle for a vehicle seat belt. The belt buckle includes a frame in which at least one locking element adapted to lock a plug-in tongue insertable into the belt buckle and an ejection element adapted to eject the plug-in tongue are provided. Each of the ejection element and the locking element is adapted to adopt a locked position and a home position. The locking element is adjacent to a web of the ejection element in the home position and thus blocked in its home position. The front end of the web has a ramp-like bearing surface against which the locking element slidingly engages.

A groove (23) extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal orientation (L) of the casing shell (10) completely over the lateral face (22, 24, 26) is provided on the lateral face (22, 24, 26). Furthermore a casing for a belt buckle is described.

Abstract: A broadhead having an adjustable cutting diameter includes a collar and a plurality of adjustable blades having a cutting edge and a plurality of notches on a proximal or trailing edge of each blade. The collar and each notch on the proximal edge of each blade are configured for engagement or coupling with each other. The cutting diameter of the broadhead is adjusted by changing the notch that engages with the collar.

Abstract: A belt buckle for a seat belt system having a support member (12) including a belt buckle mechanism, first and second shells (16, 18) which together encompass the support member (12) and an annular cover member (14) surrounding an end face of the support member (12). Along the periphery of the annular cover member (14) at feast a first structure (24) is formed and in the area of a rim (28) of the first and second shells (16, 18) directed to the annular cover member (14) a respective second structure (26) is formed. The first and second structures (24, 26) are engaged with each other and fix the first and second shells (16, 18) to the annular cover member (14).

Abstract: An archery release configured to eliminate, or at least minimize, vibrations and/or noise generated when a drawn bowstring is released from a pre-shoot position. The archery release includes a substrate subassembly and an overmolding material bonded to each other. The overmolding material is configured to absorb and eliminate, or at least minimize the vibrations and/or noise. The archery release also includes a trigger, a release mechanism, and a latching assembly extending into a hollow interior of a handle of the archery release. Within the handle, the latching assembly is operably coupled with the trigger and with the release mechanism. The vibrations and/or noise is eliminated, or at least minimized, by placing the overmolding material at locations whereat one or more components of the trigger, the latching assembly, and the release mechanism strike or engage the overmolding material instead of the substrate subassembly.

Abstract: A bag target and a method of manufacturing the bag target configured to substantively decrease in size for storage, shipment and/or display. The bag target is further configured to absorb and dissipate essentially all of the kinetic energy of a high energy projectile such as an arrow or a crossbow bolt.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to broadheads wherein the diameter of the ferrule is relatively smaller than the diameter of the shaft of the arrow or crossbow bolt to which the broadhead is attached. A collar is provided for a smooth transition between the ferrule and the shaft.

Abstract: A belt buckle comprises a casing (12) and an illumination system (24) present in the area of a locking tongue insertion opening (14). The illumination system (24) comprises a lamp (32) and a light conductor (26; 26?) including a light emission area, and the light conductor (26; 26?) includes an annular portion (42; 42?) which surrounds at least a major part of the locking tongue insertion opening (14).

Abstract: The invention describes a bell buckle (10) for a vehicle seat belt comprising a casing (12) in which at least one locking element (16) adapted to lock a plug-in tongue insertable into the belt buckle (10) and an ejection element (18) adapted to eject the plug-in tongue are provided. Each of the ejection element (18) and the locking element (16) is adapted to adopt a locked position and a home position, wherein in the home position the locking element (16) is adjacent to the ejection element (18) and thus is blocked.

Abstract: A casing shell (10) for a belt buckle is described including at least one sidewall (12, 14, 16) which has an outwardly facing lateral face (22, 24, 26). A groove (23) extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal orientation (L) of the casing shell (10) completely over the lateral face (22, 24, 26) is provided on the lateral face (22, 24, 26). Furthermore a casing for a belt buckle is described.

Abstract: A belt buckle (10) for a seat belt includes a buckle housing (16), a locking mechanism for locking a plug-in tongue inserted in the buckle housing (16), a release button (22) which is movable in a first direction relative to the buckle housing (16) for unlocking the plug-in tongue, and a safety mechanism for preventing automatic displacement of the release button (22) in the first direction. The safety mechanism includes a mass body (36) movable in the first direction relative to the buckle housing (16) and a movably supported coupling lever (24) including an axis of rotation which is stationary relative to the buckle housing (16). The coupling lever (24) is coupled to the mass body (36) and to the release button (22) so that, upon acceleration of the belt buckle (10) in a second direction opposed to the first direction, it transmits an inertia force acting on the mass body (36) in the first direction to the release button (22) in the opposite second direction.
