    Abstract: A low rebound sports target useful in baseball pitching and fielding drills freely suspends horizontal and vertical elements for defining target zones wherein the elements are able to absorb the energy delivered by a high speed baseball tossed at the target and provide for rebounding of the ball from the target in a safe manner with regard to concerns by a player using the target. A target comprising vertical chains and horizontal rods freely suspended in a spaced relation to a frame holding the chain is described. Tubing sections provide shrouds for the chain and rods while also providing for easy adjustment of the target in creating various target zones. Further, a bag collects successful target hits while a netted backstop collects errant tosses by the player. A support used in suspending target elements further provides for suspending sports images useful for simulating realistic game conditions.

    Abstract: A valve mounting device holds a valve in a fixed position and prevents rotation of the valve during operation of the valve handle. The device includes a tubular sleeve dimensioned to receive a valve body and in one embodiment has a notch for receiving a valve supply tube exit typical in angle stop valves. The sleeve is affixed to a guide tube which bends the flexible pipe through a predetermined arc for engaging the valve and holding the sleeve end valve in position. The guide tube is affixed to a rigid structure such as a wall or partition member thereby holding the valve and pipe in a rigid position. Escutcheon plates are adapted to provide support to the guide tube and sleeve.

    Abstract: A sports training target useful in developing accuracy and technique in delivering a projectile such as a baseball or hockey puck is provided. A series of nested and adjustable shutters are formed about a frame so as to protect the frame and absorb the energy of the projectile and eliminate concern from the player of being hit by a rebounded projectile thus allowing the player to concentrate on the training objectives. A target opening includes elements to establish a target for a particular drill. By way of example, the elements can be arranged for pitching to the target at shortened distances compared to the standard mound to plate distance. The target elements are then arranged to compensate for a side arm or other styled pitcher. With the combination of element placement within the target opening and the energy absorbent characteristics of the target, training takes place in confined areas without concern for the safety of the pitcher because of rebounded balls. Batting drills close to the target are also safely made using the shutters as targets because of the high absorption characteristics of the shutter material and target construction.
