Tunable broadhead with lockable blade assembly from shaft extending from broadhead tip

摘要

A tunable broadhead for archery is disclosed. The broadhead may be formed from a blade assembly that is secured in place by a tip having an elongated engaging shaft that extends through the blade assembly and is attachable to a support base. The support base is in turn attachable to an arrow. The blade assembly may be rotated into any position before the tip is tightened such that the blade assembly is placed under compression between the tip and the support base. Once the tip has been tightened, the blade assembly does not rotate. Such a configuration enables the blades of the broadhead to be indexed relative to the fletching on the arrow and enables the blades to be oriented consistently between multiple arrows in an archer's quiver, thereby enhancing accuracy regardless of the position of the insert within the end of an arrow to which the broadhead is attached.

主权项

1. A broadhead for an archery hunting arrow, comprising:
a tip configured to facilitate penetration of the blade into an object, wherein the tip includes a pointed distal end; an elongated engaging shaft extending from a proximal end of the tip, wherein the elongated engaging shaft extends from the tip and includes a tip connection assembly at a proximal end of the elongated engaging shaft; a blade assembly comprising a hollow blade support body with at least one blade extending radially outward therefrom, wherein the blade assembly has a central shaft receiving chamber extending therethrough; a support base configured to engage a proximal end of the blade assembly, wherein the support base has a distal support base connection assembly on a distal end that is configured to be attached to the elongated engaging shaft and has a proximal support base connection assembly on a proximal end of the support base that is configured to be attached to an end of an arrow; wherein the blade assembly is secured between the tip and the support base with the elongated engaging shaft positioned within the central shaft receiving chamber and engaging the support base; and wherein the blade assembly is rotatable about the elongated shaft such that orientation of the at least one blade is changable to extend from any position circumferentially about the blade assembly.
