Patent ID: 10746514

Abstract:
A broadhead arrow tip with independent suspension expandable blades is disclosed. It has an elongated ferrule body with a first slot oriented lengthwise therein which bifurcates the front end into two portions. A second slot oriented lengthwise within the body is situated between the first slot and the body's back end. The second slot is open to the body's side surfaces and is transversely wider than the first. Expandable blades are independently suspended within the second slot by a retaining pin passing through oblong apertures through an end of the blades. The blade ends have a thickness of one-third or less than the transverse width of the second slot. A threaded tip is securable on a threaded surface at the body's front end. Securement of the tip deflects the front portions toward one another, narrowing the first slot which holds the blades in a stowed positioned when placed therein.
