Self-locking archery arrow field tip or broadhead and arrow insert
View Patent ↗A self-locking archery arrow field tip or broadhead and arrow insert that provides prevailing torque to offset rotational and vibrational forces applied to the arrow tip when released from a bow. A nylon polymer chemically or thermally applied to a threaded field tip or broadhead or a threaded arrow insert provides a detachable and reusable self-locking arrow tip or arrow insert.
1. A self-locking archery arrow system, comprising:
an arrow body portion having a front end;
an arrow tip having a shank portion and a threaded end;
an arrow insert having an internal shaft and an internal threaded section coupled to the front end of the arrow body portion; and
a coating associated with the threaded end of the arrow tip,
wherein the threaded end of said arrow tip is inserted into the internal shaft of the arrow insert and detachably and reusably engaged by the threaded section of the arrow insert.
2. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 1 , wherein the coating is a nylon polymer coating thermally or chemically pre-applied to the threaded end of the shank portion.
3. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 2 , wherein the arrow tip is a field tip.
4. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 2 , wherein the arrow tip is a broadhead.
5. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 1 , wherein the coating is a nylon polymer coating thermally or chemically pre-applied to the internal threaded section of the arrow insert.
6. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 5 , wherein the arrow tip is a field tip.
7. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 5 , wherein the arrow tip is a broadhead.
8. The self-locking archery arrow system of claim 1 wherein the coating is a chemical pre-applied to the threaded end of the shank portion or the internal threaded section of the arrow insert.
9. A self-locking archery arrow tip, comprising:
a tip portion;
a shank portion; and
a coated threaded end coupled to the shank portion,
wherein the coated threaded end is sized to be detachably and reusably engaged under normal operation to an internal threaded arrow insert.
10. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 9 , wherein the arrow tip is a field tip.
11. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 10 , wherein the coating is a thermally or a chemically pre-applied nylon polymer.
12. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 10 , wherein the coating is a pre-applied chemical coating.
13. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 9 , wherein the arrow tip is a broadhead.
14. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 13 , wherein the coating is a thermally or a chemically pre-applied nylon polymer.
15. The self-locking archery arrow tip of claim 13 , wherein the coating is a pre-applied chemical coating.
16. A self-locking archery arrow insert for insertion into a front end of an arrow shaft, comprising:
a lip section;
an internal shaft;
an internal threaded section of the internal shaft sized to be detachably and reusably engaged under normal operation to a threaded end of an archery arrow tip;
and a coating associated with the internal threaded section.
17. The self-locking archery arrow insert of claim 16 , wherein the coating is a thermally or a chemically pre-applied nylon polymer.
18. The self-locking archery arrow insert of claim 16 , wherein the coating is a pre-applied chemical coating.
