A target system having a plurality of flat target boards mounted on posts which are rotatably journaled on an elongated base. Each post is rotatable ninety degrees. A drive crank arm is pivoted to the base for horizontal swinging movement and is pivotally connected to an elongated drive and synchronizing bar which in turn is pivotally connected to a plurality of lever arms connected to the respective posts to swing the target boards simultaneously between full view positions easily visible to a shooter, and edge view positions not visible to the shooter. A superior degree of reliability results from optionally selectible, multiple power drives applied to the single drive crank arm. Optional, ground-supported and overhead-supported embodiments are disclosed. In the embodiments shown, two drives with completely different power sources are shown, one being fluid pressure, the other being electricity.
A self-contained, power operated, portable target apparatus utilizing a base supported, linearally reciprocal carriage actuator driven by a reversible AC electric motor to actuate a crank along a vertical arc; the crank having pivotable connection with the carriage actuator at one end and positive fixed connection at its other end with a horizontal rotatably supported drive shaft for partially rotating the shaft in response to limited linear movements of the carriage actuator. Two, laterally spaced co-planar lift arms are secured to the shaft for movement between vertical and horizontal positions. Elongated target supporting pins project from near the outer free ends of the lift arms for inserted reception in connector sockets extending into the body of a three dimensional target. Heavy springs are coupled to the carriage actuator for assisting the motor in overcoming the inertia of the target load as it is raised from a horizontal or prone hidden position to an upright display position. Remote motor controls serve to actuate the motor which is powered from a portable battery/AC convertor power source.
