Abstract
An arrowhead attachment is provided. The arrowhead attachment may be formed from a unitary sheet of attachment material so as to be bent and/or twisted from a shipping configuration to an operable configuration. The arrowhead attachment may include an annular body and a plurality of radial arms extending from a periphery of the annular body. In the shipping configuration, at least one piercing tip is disposed alone each radial arm so as to be co-planar with the plurality of radial arms and the annular body. A user may use a common tool to twist the arrowhead attachment from the shipping configuration to the operable configuration. Then the user may place the arrow shaft through a shaft opening formed by the annular body so as to couple the arrowhead attachment behind an arrowhead.
Claims7
An arrowhead attachment formed from an unitary, planar sheet of attachment material, comprising:
- an annular body forming a shaft opening;
- a plurality of radial arms extending radially from a periphery of the annular body;
- and
- at least one piercing tip disposed along each radial arm,
- wherein each piercing tip, each radial arm and the annular body are planar in a shipping configuration.
A method of manufacturing low cost and easy to ship arrowhead attachments, comprising:
- providing a unitary sheet of attachment material;
- punching out a plurality of arrowhead attachment forms, each comprising:
- an annular body forming a shaft opening;
- a plurality of radial arms extending radially from a periphery of the annular body;
- and
- at least one piercing tip disposed along each radial arm,
- wherein each piercing tip, each radial arm and the annular body are planar in a shipping configuration;
- and
- flat packing, shipping and selling the plurality of arrowhead attachment forms, wherein at least one end-user may twist each radial arm so that each piercing tip is generally perpendicular to a plane of the annular body in an operable configuration.
