Electronic target
Abstract
An electronic target has a base, a sensing assembly and a collector. The base has a body and a stand. The base is an electrical target module and has an outer edge and a front surface. The stand is mounted on the outer edge of the body and hold the body vertical. The sensing assembly is formed on the front surface of the body and has a sticky cushion. The collector corresponds to, is mounted on and protrudes from the stand below the sensing assembly. When a pellet strikes the sticky cushion, the sticky cushion momentarily deforms slightly to hold the pellet momentarily and absorb energy of the pellet. After the pellet momentarily sticks to the sticky cushion, it falls into the collector.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An electronic target comprising
a base having a body being a electrical target module and having
an outer edge; and
a front surface; and
a sensing assembly corresponding to the body, being mounted on the front surface of the body, and having
an inner electrode layer having
an inner substrate corresponding to the body and being mounted on the front surface of the body; and
an inner segmented electrode being electrically connected to the body, being formed on the inner substrate and having multiple conductive sections isolated from each other and electronically connected to the body independently;
an outer electrode layer corresponding to the inner electrode layer and having
an outer substrate being a flexible sheet and being separated from the inner segmented electrode by a narrow gap; and
an outer segmented electrode being electronically connected to the body, being formed on the outer substrate, corresponding to and facing the inner segmented electrode on the inner substrate, being separated from the inner segmented electrode by a gap and having multiple conductive sections corresponding to the conductive sections of the inner segmented electrode; and
a sticky cushion being a flexible, soft, sticky and cushioning sheet being mounted on the front surface of the outer electrode layer.
2 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the base further has a stand being mounted on the outer edge of the body and holding the body vertical.
3 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensing assembly further has a pattern layer corresponding to and being formed between the outer electrode layer and the sticky cushion, being a flexible sheet and having a pattern corresponding to the conductive sections of the inner and outer segmented electrodes.
4 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensing assembly further has a spacing frame corresponding to and being mounted between the inner electrode layer and the outer electrode layer.
5 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 2 , wherein
the sensing assembly further has a pattern layer corresponding to and being mounted between the outer electrode layer and the sticky cushion, being a flexible sheet and having a pattern corresponding to the conductive sections of the inner and outer segmented electrode; and the sticky cushion is a thermal plastic rubber sheet.
6 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the spacing frame is a cobweb-like sheet.
7 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the sensing assembly further has a spacing frame corresponding to and being mounted between the inner electrode layer and the outer electrode layer.
8 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the conductive sections are rings formed concentrically around a circle.
9 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the electronic target further has a collector being a tray, corresponding to being mounted on and protruding from the stand below the sensing assembly.
10 . The electronic target as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the spacing frame is a cobweb-like sheet.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
