Snap and shoot takedown system

Abstract

The Snap and Shoot Takedown System is the first sport specific training system designed for wrestling that combines the capacity for building strength, speed, and precision technique, while providing human-like reactions. Steel pipe is used to provide the primary structure, simulating the human skeletal system. Closed-cell Nitro PVC is used to simulate the human muscle system and to provide protection upon impact. Neoprene is used to simulate the human skin layer and to provide protection from abrasive contact. Closed coil springs are used to supply the strength building resistance and to simulate the mobility of the human joints, allowing the parts of the Snap and Shoot Takedown System to move independently.

1 . What Carl Adams and Earl Walker, herein referred to as “we,” claim as our original invention is the insertion and welding of metal pipe into the inner portion of coil springs to create structure and provide resistance for the Snap and Shoot Takedown System, herein referred to as “the machine.” 
   
   
       2 . What we claim as our original invention is the bending of metal pipe to provide the primary structure and a human-like form for the machine.  
   
   
       3 . What we claim as our original invention is the use of threaded metal pipe, and pipe accessories (i.e. 90° elbows and 2″ nipples) to form the shoulder complex of the upper-body unit.  
   
   
       4 . What we claim as our original invention is the dome-shaping and use of polyethylene to simulate a human head for the machine.  
   
   
       5 . What we claim as our original invention is the use of black Nitro PVC foam to provide padding to the machine and to simulate the muscle structure of a human arm, leg, and neck.  
   
   
       6 . What we claim as our original invention is the use of neoprene to provide protection to the black foam padding of the machine and to simulate a skin-like covering.  
   
   
       7 . What we claim as our original invention is the welding of three 2½″×6″ steel pipe, 7″ apart, to form the “3-sleeve” configuration of the wall unit to house the upper-body unit and the two leg units of the machine.
