Adjustable handheld metal detector body with s-shape configuration
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12007525B2) discloses a body for a handheld metal detector designed with a unique configuration. The body includes a lower end with a lower shaft element to connect to a sensor head, an upper end with an armrest attached to an upper shaft element, and a grip element in between. The grip element features a grip portion for user comfort, a first aperture for adjusting the distance between the armrest and grip element, and a second aperture for positioning the lower shaft element to create an s-shape configuration.
Furthermore, the patent also covers a metal detector incorporating the described body design. The metal detector comprises a sensor head and the innovative body structure with adjustable elements for user customization. The first aperture includes a locking mechanism for securing the upper shaft element, while the second aperture firmly holds the lower shaft element. The design allows for a parallel arrangement of the lower and upper shaft elements, with the armrest extending in one direction and the grip element in the opposite direction, providing flexibility in adjusting the length of the device. Overall, the patented invention offers a novel and ergonomic body design for handheld metal detectors, enhancing user experience and functionality in metal detection applications.
