Description
- This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/997,421 filed Oct. 3, 2007.
- The present invention deals with a bow release that has two positions. The first position is for shooting and the second position is the away position. The away position is fundamental to the invention in that when the release is in this position the user's hand is free for other activities.
- Bow releases are not new to the art; however the instant invention has the ability to move from the shooting position to the away position leaving the user's hand free for other activities. None of the prior art has the same advantage that is present in the instant invention making it have a greater utility.
- U.S. Pat. No. 2,996,059 issued to Vance on Aug. 15, 1961 is a bow release that covers the palm of the hand thus not allowing the user free access to that hand before, during and after shooting without removal of the release.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,041,926 issued to Troncoso Aug. 16, 1971 is a bow release that will free the hand if the user releases it from their grip and hang from the user's wrist. The disadvantage here is that the release is hanging loosely not stationary allowing it to come into contact with other objects producing sound and potentially alarming game that is present creating a disadvantage to the user. The instant device locks into the away position remaining stationary until unlocked.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,426,989 issued to Sutton on Jan. 24, 1984 is a bow string release “that positions over the archers thumb, across the palm of his hand, and secures in position with the strap . . . ” This clearly is a disadvantage as the other prior art by obstructing the hand of the user.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,509,497 issued to Garvison on Apr. 9, 1985 is a bow release “overlie the palm of the archer's hand . . . ” again obscuring the use of this hand without removal of the bow release.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,020,508 issued to Greene on Jun. 4, 1991 is a bow release that engages the wrist and crosses the palm of the user clearly limiting the use of the hand without removal of the device.
- The instant invention is a pivoting bow release comprising in combination a pivoting mechanism, an elongated shaft and a wrist harness.
- The pivoting mechanism comprising in combination a pivoting mechanism with a top surface, a bottom surface, an inside surface, an outside surface, a center column with an outside surface, a internal spring, a internal ball bearing, a washer and a locking nut, a elongated shaft extending therefrom and a wrist harness attached thereto.
-
- The center column extends from the pivoting mechanism top surface through the pivoting mechanism bottom surface. The center column has detents opposing each other on the outside surface of the column. The column has a near end and a distal end.
- The spring and ball bearing acting as a locking mechanism when engaging the detents and the distal end of the column penetrates and the wrist harness. The wrist harness is secured with the locking nut to the center column and to pivoting mechanism.
-
- The elongated shaft is attached to the pivoting mechanism. The pivoting mechanism is capable of locking with the elongated shaft facing away from the wrist harness. The shaft is capable of rotating 180° degrees and locking.
-
FIG. 1 is a frontal view of the pivoting bow release with the pivoting mechanism secured to the elongated shaft. -
FIG. 2 is a top view of the sectional view of the pivoting mechanism along line AA. -
FIG. 3 is a full side view with the elongated shaft rotated 180°. -
FIG. 4 is a top view of the sectional view of the pivoting mechanism. -
FIG. 5 is an internal sectional side view of the pivoting mechanism or pivoting mechanism. -
FIG. 6 is a full side view of the center column of the pivoting mechanism. -
FIG. 7 is a full end view of the top surface of the central column of the pivoting mechanism. - The invention is a pivoting bow release that will rotate 180° and lock creating a release with two positions; one for shooting and the other or away position for freeing the hand of the user for other purposes such as climbing, rattling, grunting, attaching safety equipment and other uses of that hand. The prior art devices obscure or obstruct the release hand requiring the user to remove the release to perform other functions. The instant invention creates a situation where the release is essentially a hands free release when it is in the away position. The release is still attached to the arm of the user but the hand is free. This is a substantial advantage over the current prior art.

FIG. 1 is a frontal view of the pivotingbow release 2 with thepivoting mechanism 4 secured to theelongated shaft 6. It is clear from this view that the pivotingbow release 2 is worn by the user with the user's wrist secured by thewrist harness 8. The users hand slides forward along theelongated shaft 6 for engagement of therelease 2. Thepivoting mechanism 4 is visible along with thetop surface 30 at thenear end 34 of thecenter column 18. -
FIG. 2 is a top view of the sectional view of thepivoting mechanism 2 along line AA. This is the essence of the invention. Thepivoting mechanism 4 allows the pivotingbow release 2 to rotate 180° freeing the hand of the user for their convenience. -
FIG. 3 is a full side view with theelongated shaft 6 rotated 180°. It is clear from this view the hand of the user is free to manipulate objects. The user is now capable of climbing, rattling, grunting, attaching safety equipment and any other activity that they desire. The device allows for a greater level of safety with a free hand available. It is clear that the device is still secured to the user via thewrist harness 8. -
FIG. 4 is a top view of the sectional view of thepivoting mechanism 4. Thetop surface 30 ofcolumn 18 is stationary. The detent 26, ball bearing 22 andspring 20 are shown in phantom. Theelongated member 6 is manipulated or rotated until the ball bearing 22 pops into the one of thedetents 26 ofcolumn 18 by the force of thespring 20. This is the locking mechanism. The ball bearing 22 andspring 20 lock thecolumn 18 and thepivoting mechanism 4. To change the position of theelongated member 6 the user simply applies pressure to rotate thepivoting mechanism 4 until it locks again. The elongated shaft is either in a forward or reverse position. In other words it is either in a ready to use position or a safe position with a free hand. -
FIG. 5 is an internal sectional side view of thepivoting mechanism 4 of the pivotingbow release 2. The main feature here is that thecenter column 18 is stationary while thepivoting mechanism 4 moves around thecolumn 18 in either a clock wise or counter clock wise direction of rotation. This is possible because thecolumn 18 is secured to thewrist harness 8 via the lockingnut 28 at thedistal end 36 of thecolumn 18. As thepivoting mechanism 4 rotates thedetent 26 engagescolumn 18 by theball bearing 22 moving via bias pressure of thespring 20. When theball bearing 22 rests in thedetent 26 thepivoting mechanism 4 locks. Simple pressure of the user will advance thepivoting mechanism 4 until the opposingdetent 26 is reached and thepivoting mechanism 4 will again lock. The pivotingbow release 2 locks in a forward position, then in the reverse position freeing the user's hand. Thecolumn 18 has abottom surface 12 that rest upon awasher 24 which provides a bottom rotational surface for thepivoting mechanism 4. At the top rotational surface thetop surface 10 of thepivoting mechanism 4 passes along thebottom surface 32 of thecolumn 18. Thecolumn 18 has anoutside surface 38 that passes along theinside surface 14 of thepivoting mechanism 4. The column hastop surface 30 at it nearend 34. Theelongated shaft 6 is attached to theoutside surface 16 ofpivoting mechanism 4. -
FIG. 6 is a full side view of thecenter column 18 of thepivoting mechanism 4. This view shows the details of thecolumn 18. Visible are thetop surface 30, thenear end 34 anddistal end 36. Thedetents 26 are located at theoutside surface 38 of thecolumn 18. -
