Abstract
An airsoft pellet receptacle device. The device may comprise a hollow body having a tapered helical shape. The hollow body may comprise a first opening at a first end of the hollow body, and a second opening at a second end of the hollow body. A diameter of the hollow body may decrease from the first end to the second end. The device may further comprise a base component comprising a pellet inlet, a collection chamber, and a hollow path within the base component connecting the pellet inlet to the collection chamber. In some embodiments, the second end of the hollow body may be coupled to the pellet inlet of the base component. Pellets shot into the first opening may travel down the length of the hollow body and through the pellet inlet into the collection chamber for retrieval.
Claims18
An airsoft pellet receptacle device (100) comprising:
- a. a hollow body (110) having a tapered helical shape, the hollow body (110) comprising a first opening at a first end (112) of the hollow body (110), and a second opening at a second end (114) of the hollow body (110);
- wherein a diameter of the hollow body (110) decreases from the first end (112) to the second end (114);
- and
- b. a base component (120) comprising a pellet inlet, a collection chamber (122), and a hollow path within the base component (120) connecting the pellet inlet to the collection chamber (122);
- wherein the second end (114) of the hollow body (110) is coupled to the pellet inlet of the base component (120).
An airsoft pellet receptacle device (100) comprising:
- a. a hollow body (110) having a tapered helical shape, the hollow body (110) comprising a first opening at a first end (112) of the hollow body (110), and a second opening at a second end (114) of the hollow body (110);
- wherein a diameter of the hollow body (110) decreases from the first end (112) to the second end (114);
- b. a penetrable target (130) disposed at the first end (112) of the hollow body (110), wherein the penetrable target (130) fully covers the first opening;
- c. one or more motion sensors (140) disposed at the first end (112) of the hollow body (110), behind the penetrable target (130);
- d. one or more light-emitting diodes (LEDs) (150) disposed on a surface of the hollow body (110), configured to emit light, communicatively coupled to the one or more motion sensors (140), wherein triggering the one or more motion sensors (140) causes the one or more LEDs (150) to activate;
- e. one or more speakers (160) disposed on a surface of the hollow body (110), configured to emit sound, communicatively coupled to the one or more motion sensors (140), wherein triggering the one or more motion sensors causes the one or more speakers (160) to activate;
- and
- f. a base component (120) comprising a pellet inlet, a collection chamber (122), and a hollow path within the base component (120) connecting the pellet inlet to the collection chamber (122);
- wherein the second end (114) of the hollow body (110) is coupled to the pellet inlet of the base component (120).
