- the tip portion of the plunger in contact with the arrow shaft is always in horizontal contact with the arrow shaft to stably compensate for horizontal vibration, stable flight of an arrow is induced, and thus a hit rate of the arrow can be improved.
- the tensile force adjustment cylinder into which a rear part of the plunger shaft passing through the elastic member is inserted and coupled and which interlocks with a tension adjustment housing that rotates in a dial manner to adjust a tensile force of the plunger shaft is formed in a ball bearing structure, and thus, when the tensile force is adjusted, the plunger shaft can move more smoothly than when the plunger shaft moves horizontally and linearly in a sliding manner inside the tensile force adjustment cylinder.
- tensile force adjustment grooves are formed in an outer surface of a sleeve at regular intervals, an adjusted tensile force is fixedly locked using a ball plunger coupled to the tensile force adjustment housing after the tensile force is adjusted by rotating the tensile force adjustment housing in a dial manner, and thus a tensile force adjustment operation can be more smoothly performed.

Description
- This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2022-0096982 filed on Aug. 3, 2022, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present disclosure relates to an archery cushion plunger, and more particularly, to a cushion plunger that adjusts a strength of a pressure point, compensates for horizontal vibrations that occur in an arrow shaft when an arrow is fired from a bowstring and is accelerated, and thus induces right flight of the arrow.
- In general, in archery that is a Western-style bow, a stabilizer, a cushion plunger, or the like are used as an auxiliary device that helps an arrow fired from a bowstring of a body that shoots the arrow by hanging the arrow on the bowstring to fly correctly in addition to the body.

- Various examples of this cushion plunger have been proposed in a number of related documents including Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2017-0121592, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2016-0063828, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,697,323, 5,081,980, 5,359,984, and 5,375,584, Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 20-3175621, and the like.
- The cushion plunger according to the relate art including the related documents compensates for the horizontal vibration of the arrow shaft by adjusting a tensile force and pressure of a spring provided inside the body through a screw. That is, by adjusting the tensile force of the plunger by rotating the screw in a tightening direction with respect to a housing to increase the tensile force of the spring or rotating the screw in an untightening direction to decrease the tensile force of the spring, the arrow leaving the arrow shaft can fly stably.

FIG. 1 , the cushion plunger 10 according to the related art includes asleeve 11, aplunger 12 embedded in thesleeve 11 and having a tip portion 12 a that protrudes and retracts to buffer a lateral pressure of an arrow shaft 1 (seeFIG. 2 ), aspring 13 that is embedded in thesleeve 11 and applies a pressure to theplunger 12, a tensileforce adjustment bar 14 that adjusts a tensile force of thespring 13, and a tensile force adjustment housing 15 that adjusts the tensile force of thespring 13 by linearly moving the tensileforce adjustment bar 14. - Operating characteristics of the
cushion plunger 10 having this structure according to the related art will be described. - When the tensile force adjustment housing 15 rotates about the
sleeve 11, the tensileforce adjustment bar 14 moves along thesleeve 11 in conjunction with the rotation. In this process, the tensile force of thespring 13 is adjusted to compensate for a horizontal vibration of the arrow shaft so that an arrow can fly stably. - However, the cushion plunger 10 according to the related art has the following problems, which will be described in conjunction with
FIG. 2 .FIG. 2A is a view illustrating a normal state, andFIGS. 2B and 2C are views illustrating a state in which a spring is deformed in an up-down direction with respect to a center line CL. - As illustrated in
FIG. 2A , only when a tip portion of theplunger 12 is in horizontal contact with the virtual center line CL, the arrow shaft 1 can stably fly, and a hit rate can be improved. However, in the cushion plunger 10 according to the related art, in a process of adjusting the tensile force, as illustrated inFIGS. 2B and 2C , thespring 13 is twisted to one side with respect to the center line CL due to a gap g (see a portion “A” ofFIG. 1 ) present between thespring 13 and thesleeve 11 for connecting the tensileforce adjustment bar 14 and theplunger 12. Accordingly, a lateral pressure applied to the arrow shaft 1 is twisted, making stable shooting difficult and reducing a hit rate of the arrow. - KR 10-2017-0121592 A, 2017 Nov. 2.

-
FIG. 3 is a schematic assembly perspective view for describing an archery cushion plunger according to an embodiment of the present disclosure,FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view, andFIG. 5 is an assembly cross-sectional view. - Referring to
FIGS. 3 to 5 , anarchery cushion plunger 20 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may be provided such that atip portion 221 a of aplunger shaft 22 is not twisted about a virtual center line and is always in contact with an arrow shaft 1 in a horizontal direction. Thus, a horizontal vibration of the arrow shaft 1 is always stably compensated for, so that an arrow can fly stably. - As illustrated in
FIG. 2A , in thearchery cushion plunger 20 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, two methods are proposed as a method in which thetip portion 221 a of theplunger shaft 22 is always in horizontal contact with the arrow shaft 1. First, theplunger shaft 22 is coupled to pass through anelastic member 23. Second, contact surfaces of both ends of theelastic member 23 that is in direct contact with theplunger shaft 22 and a tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 are precisely polished, thereby improving surface flatness. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 2B and 2C , in the related art having a structure in which aspring 13 connects aplunger 12 and a tensileforce adjustment bar 14, when a force is applied in a direction from the tensileforce adjustment bar 14 to theplunger 12 to adjust a tensile force due to characteristics of thespring 13, thespring 13 is contracted, and in this process, is twisted away from the center line CL. - In order to solve this problem, as illustrated in
FIG. 5 , in thearchery cushion plunger 20 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, arear part 222 of theplunger shaft 22 passes through theelastic member 23 made of a compression spring (coil spring) and is inserted into and coupled to the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. - In this structure in which the
plunger shaft 22 is coupled through theelastic member 23, theplunger shaft 22 serves to grip deformation of theelastic member 23. That is, when a pressure is applied to theelastic member 23 between theplunger shaft 22 and the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 and thus theelastic member 23 is about to be deformed by a pressing force, theplunger shaft 22 is centered so that theelastic member 23 is not deformed, and thus twisting deformation of theelastic member 23 is prevented. - In contrast, in the related art, as illustrated in
FIG. 1 , since a central axis is not present in thespring 13, when a pressure is applied to thespring 13 between theplunger 12 and the tensileforce adjustment bar 14, twisting deformation may occur in a space formed due to a gap g by the pressing force applied to thespring 13. However, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, this deformation does not occur. - Meanwhile, in the present disclosure, in order to maintain the
plunger shaft 22 horizontal, asleeve 21 and the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 are assembled and installed in a horizontally aligned state. That is, afront part 221 of theplunger shaft 22 is closely coupled through an inside of thesleeve 21, and therear part 222 is closely inserted into and coupled to an inside of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. In this case, as thesleeve 21 and the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 are assembled and installed in a horizontally aligned state, theplunger shaft 22 may be horizontally maintained between thesleeve 21 and the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. -
FIG. 6 is a front view illustrating an elastic member illustrated inFIG. 4 . - As illustrated in
FIGS. 5 and 6 , theelastic member 23 according to the present disclosure, which is a compression spring, is installed between astep part 223 of theplunger shaft 22 and a front surface 24 a of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. - A front surface 23 a of the
elastic member 23 is in close contact with a rear surface of thestep part 223 of theplunger shaft 22, and a rear surface 23 b thereof is in close contact with the front surface 24 a of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. In this case, when theelastic member 23 is pressed, the entire front surface 23 a may be in close contact with thestep part 223 of theplunger shaft 22, and the entire rear surface 23 b may be uniformly in close contact with the front surface 24 a of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. - To this end, in the
elastic member 23, the front surface 23 a is precisely polished so that the front surface 23 a is horizontally in close contact with thestep 223 of theshaft 22, and the rear surface 23 b is also precisely polished so that the rear surface 23 b is not twisted when in close contact with the front surface 24 a of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. - The front surface 23 a and the rear surface 23 b of the
elastic member 23 may be polished so that a surface step therebetween is 0.3 mm or less, preferably 0.2 mm, and more preferably 0.1 mm. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4 , theplunger shaft 22 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure can increase the degree of adhesion between thesleeve 21 and theelastic member 23 to prevent shaking during a horizontal (left-right) linear reciprocating movement. - The
plunger shaft 22 may be made of stainless steel that is resistant to corrosion and oxidation. For example, theplunger shaft 22 includes afront part 221 and arear part 222 formed of a round bar. Further, thestep part 223 formed in a circular ring shape protrudes from outer surfaces of thefront part 221 and therear part 222 at a boundary between thefront part 221 and therear part 222. - The
front part 221 and therear part 222 may be integrally formed as a round bar. Thestep part 223 may be formed by fastening a separately manufactured circular ring to thefront part 221 and therear part 222. Further, thefront part 221 may be formed to have a greater outer diameter than that of therear part 222. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 4 and 5 , in the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the front surface 24 a with which the rear surface 23 b of theelastic member 23 is in close contact has a flat surface having uniform flatness without a surface step, is in close contact with the rear surface 23 b of theelastic member 23 without a step, and thus guides theelastic member 23 so that theelastic member 23 may be horizontally contracted and extended without being twisted. - As illustrated in
FIG. 5 , therear part 222 of theplunger shaft 22 is inserted into and coupled to the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 to slidably move in a lengthwise direction of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. In this way, as therear part 222 is inserted into and coupled to the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24, theplunger shaft 22 may linearly and horizontally move through the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 without shaking. - For example, the tensile
force adjustment cylinder 24 may have a ball bearing including anouter ring 241, aninner ring 242, and aball 243 installed between theouter ring 241 and theinner ring 242. In this case, a contact surface between theouter ring 241 and theinner ring 242 in contact with the rear surface 23 b of theelastic member 23 is formed in a flat surface without a surface step to prevent the twisting of theelastic member 23 as described above. - Further, the
outer ring 241 may be formed of stainless steel that is resistant to corrosion and oxidation, and theinner ring 242 may be formed of a synthetic resin material that is resistant to corrosion. Therefore, a supporting force can be provided, and smooth movement can be provided when theplunger shaft 22 slidably moves. - Meanwhile, a ball bearing having a structure in which a part of a ball passes through the inner ring and protrudes to the hollow of the tensile
force adjustment cylinder 24 may be used as the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24. In this case, when slidably moving along the hollow of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24, theplunger shaft 22 slidably inserted into the hollow of the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 is in direct contact with the ball passing through the inner ring and protruding, and thus can move more smoothly due to a rolling movement of the ball. - As illustrated in
FIG. 3 , thesleeve 21 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, which is a screw-type sleeve having a thread formed on an outer surface thereof, includes afront part 211 and arear part 212 having different outer diameters. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4 , threads are formed on outer surfaces of thefront part 211 and therear part 212. Further, an alignmentkey groove 212 a formed in a horizontal cut surface so that a tensile force adjustment position of thearchery cushion plunger 20 is easily identified may be formed on one side of the outer surface of therear part 212. - A thread to which a tensile
force adjustment housing 25 is screw-coupled is formed in the outer surface of therear part 212 of thesleeve 21. Further, when a tensile force is adjusted using a dial manner through the tensileforce adjustment housing 25, tensile force adjustment grooves 212 b are formed on therear part 212 at regular intervals so that the tensile force adjustment grooves 212 b are perpendicular to a rotational direction of the thread formed in therear part 212 to uniformly adjust a tensile force adjustment value. - A plurality of tensile force adjustment grooves 212 b are formed in a rotational direction of the
sleeve 21 at regular intervals. A tensile force of theelastic member 23 may be determined based on a position of the tensile force adjustment groove 212 b to which aball 26 a of aball plunger 26 is coupled, and thus a strength of a pressure point of the arrow can be finely adjusted. - Meanwhile, the first tensile force adjustment groove among the tensile force adjustment grooves 212 b may be formed in parallel to the alignment
key groove 212 a of thesleeve 21 so that an archer may easily recognize the strength of the adjusted tensile force. Alternatively, a zero point (scale) may be displayed to correspond to the firsts tensile force adjustment groove. Based on this, the archer may easily recognize the strength of the pressure point of the currently adjusted arrow to correspond to the tensile force adjustment groove located in a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 3 and 4 , the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 has a hollow 25 a to which thesleeve 21 is coupled. Further, a thread to be screw-coupled to the thread formed in therear part 212 of thesleeve 21 is formed in an inner circumferential surface of the hollow 25 a. Thus, the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 may linearly reciprocate along thesleeve 21 in a rotational direction through screw coupling with thesleeve 21. For example, when rotating in a tightening direction, the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 moves leftward along the sleeve inFIG. 5 , and when rotating in an untightening direction, the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 moves rightward inFIG. 5 . - As illustrated in
FIG. 5 , a rear end of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 may be sealed. This is for preventing foreign substances from being introduced into the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. Further, the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 inserted into the hollow 25 a of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 has arear surface 24 b that is supported on an inner surface of the sealed rear end of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 in a right direction inFIG. 5 . Thus, as the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 moves, the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 inserted and coupled thereinto also moves horizontally in conjunction with the movement of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4 , afastening hole 25 b into which theball plunger 26 for fixing the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 to thesleeve 21 is inserted and fastened is formed above the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. - The
ball plunger 26 may be fixedly fastened to thefastening hole 25 b through a nut N and a washer W. - As illustrated in
FIG. 5 , thefastening hole 25 b is formed to communicate with the hollow 25 a of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. Theball plunger 26 coupled to thefastening hole 25 b has aball 26 a installed at a lower end thereof, and thus when the tensile force is adjusted, theball 26 a may be more smoothly caught by the tensile force adjustment groove 212 b. - Meanwhile, as illustrated in
FIG. 3 , a fixingnut 27 for mounting thecushion plunger 20 to a bow may be installed in thesleeve 21. For example, the fixingnut 27 may be formed through an aluminum anodizing process. Further, as illustrated inFIGS. 4 and 5 , a thread is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the hollow 27 a to be screw-coupled to the thread formed on an outer surface of thesleeve 21 and moves leftward and rightward along thesleeve 21 in the rotational direction. Further, afastening hole 27 b to which a locking screw (not illustrated) is fastened is formed on an upper side to be fixed to thesleeve 21 at a predetermined position. - When viewed from the
tip portion 221 a of theplunger shaft 22, the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 may have a polygonal shape (for example, a triangular shape) so that a gripping sense of a finger is improved and the finger does not slide when the tensile force is adjusted. The fixingnut 27 may also have a triangular structure in consideration of a gripping sense or the like. - Hereinafter, operation characteristics of the
archery cushion plunger 20 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. - As illustrated in
FIG. 5 , in order to adjust the strength of the pressure point of the arrow, when the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 rotates about thesleeve 21 in the tightening direction (clockwise direction), the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 moves in a leftward direction along thesleeve 21. The tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 moves by being guided by the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 in conjunction with the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. As the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 moves, a rear part of theelastic member 23 is pressed to increase the tensile force. The strength of the pressure point of the arrow increases to correspond to the increase in the tensile force of theelastic member 23. - In contrast, when the tensile
force adjustment housing 25 rotates in the untightening direction (counterclockwise direction), the tensileforce adjustment housing 25 moves in a rightward direction. Further, the tensileforce adjustment cylinder 24 is pushed to the right side by an elastic restoring force of theelastic member 23 in conjunction with the rightward movement of the tensileforce adjustment housing 25. Accordingly, a pressing force applied to theelastic member 23 is reduced or eliminated, and thus the tensile force is reduced. The strength of the pressure point of the arrow is reduced to correspond to the reduction in the tensile force of theelastic member 23. - As described above, according to an archery cushion plunger according to the present disclosure, a structure is changed so that a plunger shaft in contact with an arrow shaft passes through a center of an elastic member, the plunger shaft stably grips the center of the elastic member, and thus deformation of the elastic member can be fundamentally prevented even when a pressure is applied to front and rear sides of the elastic member during adjustment of a tensile force.
- Further, according to the archery cushion plunger according to the present disclosure, a front surface and a rear surface of the elastic member installed between the plunger shaft and a tensile force adjustment cylinder are precisely polished so that the front surface and the rear surface are in close contact with a contact surface between the plunger shaft and the tensile force adjustment cylinder without a surface step. Therefore, a pressing force applied from the tensile force adjustment cylinder to the elastic member and from the elastic member to the plunger shaft is horizontally and stably transmitted, a tip portion of the plunger shaft is always in horizontal contact with the arrow shaft, and thus horizontal vibration can be stably compensated for.
- Thus, according to the archery cushion plunger according to the present disclosure, the tip portion of the plunger in contact with the arrow shaft is always in horizontal contact with the arrow shaft to stably compensate for horizontal vibration, stable flight of an arrow is induced, and thus a hit rate of the arrow can be improved.
- Further, according to the archery cushion plunger according to the present disclosure, the tensile force adjustment cylinder into which a rear part of the plunger shaft passing through the elastic member is inserted and coupled and which interlocks with a tension adjustment housing that rotates in a dial manner to adjust a tensile force of the plunger shaft is formed in a ball bearing structure, and thus, when the tensile force is adjusted, the plunger shaft can move more smoothly than when the plunger shaft moves horizontally and linearly in a sliding manner inside the tensile force adjustment cylinder.
- Further, according to the archery cushion plunger according to the present disclosure, tensile force adjustment grooves are formed in an outer surface of a sleeve at regular intervals, an adjusted tensile force is fixedly locked using a ball plunger coupled to the tensile force adjustment housing after the tensile force is adjusted by rotating the tensile force adjustment housing in a dial manner, and thus a tensile force adjustment operation can be more smoothly performed.
- As above, embodiments of the present disclosure have been described and illustrated using specific terms, but these terms are only intended to clearly describe the present disclosure. Further, it is obvious that the embodiments and the described terms of the present disclosure may be variously changed and modified without departing from technical spirit and scope of the appended claims. The modified embodiments should not be individually understood from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure and should belong to the appended claims of the present disclosure.
