Abstract
An arrow extraction device including a clamping means and a lever-actuated push rod. An arrow shaft is held by the clamping means while removal force is applied through the lever-actuated push rod, thereby facilitating easy recovery of a whole arrow embedded in a target.
Claims15
An arrow extraction device for removal of an arrow embedded in an object, comprising:
- an arrow-shaft clamping means,
- a push rod, and
- a lever member coupled to the arrow-shaft clamping means and the push rod such that a pulling force applied to the lever member urges the push rod in a direction away from the arrow-shaft clamping means.
An arrow extraction device for removal of an arrow embedded in an object, comprising:
- a support member,
- an arrow-shaft clamping means hingedly connected to the support member,
- a lever member pivotally attached to the support member, and
- a push rod pivotally attached to a first end of the lever member such that a pulling force applied to a second end of the lever member actuates said push rod away from said arrow-shaft clamping means.
The device of claim 7, wherein an alignment means is disposed around the push rod to maintain the push rod in substantial alignment with the arrow.
A method of extracting an arrow embedded in an object, comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing an arrow extraction device including an arrow-shaft clamping means, a push rod, and a lever member coupled to the arrow-shaft clamping means and push rod, such that a pulling force applied to the lever member urges the push rod in a direction away from the arrow-shaft clamping means,
- (b) clamping a shaft of the arrow with the arrow-shaft clamping means, and
- (c) applying a pulling force to the lever member, thereby actuating the push rod to achieve arrow removal.
