Powerod arrow

Abstract

An arrow with gripping claws around the head and a build-in high voltage electronic discharge apparatus for subduing and incapacitating humans and animals. When the plunger hits the target the said claws grab the target and deliver a high voltage charge that immobilizing it.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This present invention relates to the sport of hunting. An arrow (head and body) with a electronic micro stunning device and battery, used to conduct a current through a target to immobilize and stun it.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

Our invention the “Powerod Arrow” is to promote and preserve the sport of gaming throughout the United States and the world. It can be used to counsel, educate and develop support research and management programs designed to conserve and improve our animal resources.

It was once a widely held belief that hunting had little or no effect on animal populations. Today we realize that our deer and other animal population is depleting. It has been demonstrated that even our forests are defenseless to the sport of gaming.

Surely, where hunting allowed, Animal Rights Activists will appreciate that gaming no longer will exclusively be a sport of preying animals of any kind, but rather one that is based on the “Good Gaming” principle. Good Gaming, of course, finds its root in the “Catch and Release” concept of fishing. The Powerod Arrow, as explained builds further on this concept and philosophy, and makes this a reality for its potential customers.

The Powerod Arrow will allow hunters who love the sport to be satisfied with their hunting prowess yet still will only leave the animals stunned long enough for them to safely approach the animal, and remove the Powerod Arrow causing no major harm to the animal.

OBJECTS AND ADVANTAGES

• It is quiet
• Efficient
• Inexpensive Technology
• Promotes “Good Gaming”
• Prevent Unnecessary slaughter of animals
• Multi-uses

Different models of the Powerod Arrow will reflect the variations in power for different types of game or uses for the military or law enforcement (human). The plain arrow was used for hunting prey and not for stunning for “The Foundation of Good Gaming” by the Powerod Arrow.

FIGURES DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF POWEROD ARROW

FIG. 1 shows a side section view of the arrowhead (1) with the claw hooks (3) in the grabbing position. The claw release button (2) stands up to lock the plunger body (8) in when the plunger head (5) hits an object. This causes the claw hooks (3) to grab it target. Power is connected to the arrowhead (1) by way of the head thread connector (19) when screwed into the body thread connector (10). The female power connector (18F) located inside the head thread connector (19) shown in FIG. 1 allows the positive voltage to flow from the male power connector (18M) located inside the body thread connector (10) shown in FIG. 2. The electronic circuit board (20) is grounded by way of the head thread connector (19) when screwed to the body thread connector (10).

FIG. 2 shows the arrow body (15) internal battery plus wire (11) and rear assembly of the arrow.

FIG. 3 shows a side view of the plunger assembly with the claw arms (7). The claw release pinhole (42) is located near the end of the plunger body (8)

FIG. 4 is a view of the notch (17) connected to the arrow body (15) and battery (21) in its compartment located near the end of the arrow. The string of the bow fits in the notch (17) on to the notch activator (60) pushing it in. The notch switch (22) which disconnects the battery (21) from ground. The battery (21) is pressed forward into the arrow body (15) with the battery ground spring (63) preventing the battery from moving around. The positive end of the battery (21) pushes against the battery post (30) and assembly shown in FIG. 6 makes sure that contact is obtain even when the arrow impacts a object.

FIG. 5 shows the electronic circuit schematic which some parts is located on the electronic circuit board (20).

OPERATION

When the Powerod Arrow is placed in a bow and locked down, the arrowhead (1) should look like FIG. 2 with the claw hooks (3) standing up. When the bowstring pushes in on the notch activator (60) it causes notch switch (22) to disconnect the battery (21) from ground removing power from electronic circuit board (20).

When power is applied to electronic circuit board (20) the transistor (23) switches on and off producing a high frequency oscillation at the transformer (24) inputs. The high frequency oscillation creates a high voltage AC at the transformer (24) outputs. The high voltage AC is then inputted into the high voltage multiplier made up of high voltage capacitor (50) through (53) and high voltage diode (54) through (57). The output of the high voltage multiplier circuit outputs a voltage close to 80,000 volts at 0.3 ma on high voltage plus wire (13) and high voltage negative wire (14).

The hunter takes aim and releases the Powerod Arrow at his target. When the arrow released, the notch activator (60) pushes out activating notch switch (22) sending power to electronic circuit board (20) making claw hooks (3) and plunger head (5) ready to shock the target.

When the arrow hits the target plunger head (5) and plunger body (8) pushes into arrowhead (1) causing claw hooks (3) to grab the object hit and delivering a shock to the target. The shock stimulates the nerves system causing the target muscles to over work making them fatigues. This results in the target dropping in its tracks being traumatized. Once the target traumatized, the hunters determine if that is the desired target wanted or not. If the target is not wanted by the hunter they just removes the arrow by pressing down on claw release button (2) that retracting the (3). The target will recover from the shock in about 6 to 8 minutes.
