Target holder

Abstract

The invention discloses a target holder used in shooting, comprising an elongated stake ( 210, 510, 610 ), having an upper part extending parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake, which upper part has an edge ( 233 ) receiving the first side of the target, and, as an extension of the upper part, a lower part having a bottom part that is arranged for mounting the stake to the ground or to a platform, as well as attachment means for attaching the target.

1 . A target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) for a target used in shooting, comprising an elongated stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ), having an upper part extending parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake, the upper part having an edge ( 133 ,  233 ) receiving the first side of the target, and as an extension of the upper part, a lower part having a bottom part that is arranged for mounting the stake to the ground or to a platform, as well as attachment means for attaching the target, characterized in that the target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) comprises an elongated attachment part ( 320 ,  420 ,  520 ) that is arranged to be attached to a stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) parallel to its longitudinal axle so that the attachment part ( 320 ,  420 ,  520 ) extends, when attaching, over the surface of the other side of the target to be attached to a target holder ( 500 ,  600 ), wherein, when attaching, the locking direction of the attachment part ( 320 ,  420 ,  520 ) is parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) towards the bottom part of the stake, and, when detaching, the opening direction of the attachment part is parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake away from the bottom part of the stake. 
     
     
         2 . A target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) is made of a metal plate and shaped so that it comprises a rectangular elongated bottom wall ( 135 ,  235 ), extending between the upper part and the lower part of the stake, and elongated side walls ( 132 ,  232 ), arranged parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) so that the side walls ( 132 ,  232 ) extend outwards from the opposite edges of the bottom wall ( 135 ,  235 ), and, that the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) has several upwards opening wedgelike projections ( 131 ,  231 ,  631 ), which have been arranged in pairs above the edge in the stake and below the edge ( 133 ,  233 ). 
     
     
         3 . A target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the attachment part ( 320 ,  420 ,  520 ) is made of a metal plate and shaped so that it comprises a rectangular elongated bottom wall ( 323 ,  423 ), extending parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake, and elongated side walls ( 322 ,  422 ), which side walls extend outwards from the opposite edges of the bottom wall ( 323 ,  423 ), and that the attachment part ( 320 ,  420 ,  520 ) has several openings ( 321 ,  421 ), arranged in pairs to the opposite ends of the attachment part. 
     
     
         4 . A target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the bottom part is shaped at its lower part to protrude from the stake so that it functions as a stamping means when mounting the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) to the ground or to a platform. 
     
     
         5 . A target holder ( 500 ,  600 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the edge ( 133 ,  233 ) of the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) is shaped so that it has serrations ( 617 ) that extend parallel to the longitudinal axle of the stake ( 210 ,  510 ,  610 ) over the edge ( 133 ,  233 ).
