Abstract
Disclosed is a broadhead arrowhead. The broadhead arrowhead includes a ferrule, one end portion of which is tapered to a substantial point. One or more blade assemblies extend outwardly from the ferrule. Each blade assembly has a first substantially planar main surface portion disposed in a plane at least substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the ferrule and a second surface portion having a planar region offset at an angle to the plane of the main surface portion. A generally continuously curved region is disposed between and connecting the first and second substantially planar portions, such that the blade assembly has an airfoil-type shape.
Claims24
A broadhead arrowhead comprising:
- a ferrule;
- a plurality of blade assemblies disposed substantially symmetrically around the longitudinal axis of said ferrule, each said blade assembly having a first substantially planar portion disposed in a plane at least substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of said ferrule and a second portion disposed at an angle to the plane of said first planar portion, wherein said second portion is disposed at an angle of between about 5° and about 25° relative to the plane of said first planar portion;
- and
- a generally continuously curved region disposed between and connecting said first and second portions, wherein each said blade assembly has an airfoil-type shape.
A broadhead arrow, comprising:
- an arrowhead including:
- a ferrule,
- at least one blade assembly coupled to and extending outwardly from said ferrule,
- said blade assembly having a first substantially planar portion disposed in a plane at least substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of said ferrule and a second substantially planar portion disposed at an angle to the plane of said first planar portion, and
- a generally continuously curved region disposed between and connecting said first and second substantially planar portions, wherein said blade assembly has an airfoil-type shape;
- and
- a shaft devoid of fletching, said arrowhead being secured to one end region of said shaft.
