Various types of devices have been provided for holding arrows in position for projection, however, such devices are relatively clumsy and it is difficult to aim an arrow accurately thereby. With this thought in mind this invention contemplates a relatively small telescoping rod secured to one side of the bow with latching means 'in United States patemw :withmparts broken away andthe rema 2,982,279 Y ter? tr .2 95

* E e-3 is a sectional plan taken on line 3- -3 of Fig ;ure :lushgwing thefinnerpor'tion of the telescoping rod and illustrating, imparticul ar; the arrangement of the notched rdiscrforlholdingtthe bow string.
;.;-Figure 4 is" aperspective view with the parts in exploded positions and shown on an enlarged scale showing, in
particular, the lnotched disc i and trigger actuated apin for tholdingmand releasing the disc. a
:::Figure 5 is a (cross: sections taken on line 5-'-5 of Figure 2 showing the position ofrthetelescoping tube members on the side of a bow. 1
Referring, now, to;2the .pdrawingwherein like reference fa te ste td n t te gnd n p rt t e :bow; a tachls ven i9n-.-inc ld s art p 0 -te s bp t telescoping sections of the rod and with the bow string 1 held in a notched disc rotatably mounted in an extended end of a rod whereby the disc may be the bow string by a trigger The objectof this invention is, therefore; to. provide a supporting device in combination with a bow to facilitate retaining and releasing the bow string so that accurate shooting may be obtained.
actuated to release Another important object of the invention is toprovide I a telescoping struttfor use on. a bowto facilitate holding the bo w string and arrow in cocked position in'which the device .is of comparatively light weight.
A further object'of the inventionis toprovide a tele- YT scoping rod designed to be mounted on the side of a bow with a pistol grip at the extended end and with a notched 1 disc for holding the bow string rotatably mounted in the s a rod'and actuated to release the bow string by a trigger,
1 in wh'i;ch the' device is of a simple and economical construction.
- With these and other objects and advantages in view A 50V 15 and, as shown in Figure 2, the trigger extends through.
an elongated, slot 38 which permits the triggervto be the invention embodiesa tube having a clamp on one endfor'mo'unting the tube on the side of a bow, a' telescoping tube slidably mounted in the former' rod and' having a latch therein for retaining the telescoping rod in extended position, a'pi'stol grip on the extended end v i of the" telescoping rod, and; a notched disc rotatably mounted inthe rod and actuated to release the bow string a v; which may be trained therethrough of the device rearwardly. 0
y raw a trigger 7 Other features and advantages of the invention will I appear from the followingjdescriptiontaken in connectionwith the drawing whereinr, r 1 i Figure 1 is a side ielevational view illustratingthe' im- 18 to be withdrawn from one of the notches 14 when .it
one end and positioned to nest in one of the notches 14- of the disc 12, a spring 19 also mounted in the bore 13 and positioned to urge the rod 15 toward the disc 12, a cap 20 threaded on the rear end of the rod 11, a grip 21' extended from one side of the rod 11, and a'clamp 22 for attaching the tube 10 to one side of a bow 23.
Th'eclamp 22 is formed with a bar 24 that is mounted on the bow by screws 25 and the upper portion of the bar is rolled over around the tube 10 and positioned with the extended'end 26 urged against the bar 24 by a thumb nut 27 on a stub 28 extended from the bar. I 7
Any well-known conventional means may be provided on the rod 11 and tube 10 for limiting'the outward movement of the rod 11 to prevent the rod 11 from pulling out of the tube 10, and as illustrated in Figurel2, the rod 11 is provided witha latch 30 that is positionedin a recess 3-1 in the rod and. the latch is pivotally mounted by a pin 32 and urged outwardly by a spring 33' alsd positioned in the recess 31. The lower end of the spring extends into a notch 34 in the rod to provide means for retaining the spring inposition. When it is desired'to collapse the 'device the latch 30 is pressed inwardly so that the latch slides on the inner surface of the tube 10;-
The disc 12, in which the notches 14 are positioned is rotatably mounted on a 'pin'35 extended through the rod 11 and, as shown in Figure 2, the ends of thepin are tion.
The trigger 16 is positioned in a ecess 37 in therod drawn rearwardly a sufiicient distance to permit the pin 'is desired to release the bow string. The device is pro-f 'i vided with a triggerrguardj 39 which" extends from the proved pair of telescoping members with the pistol grip a on oneend of the members and withopposite end of the members secured by a clamp tofthe intermediate portion of the bow. i
gn'p 21 to the lowerside of the rod 11.
Withthe p r SSembledas' illustrated and asserted the'tube 10 is secured by the clamp 22 to one sid e of,
the bow 23 and with an arrow 40 in position the bow l string 41 is placedin one of the notches 14 and the rod r '11 withdrawn until the latch 30 snaps upwardly to the position shown in Figure 2 whereby the telescoping device iis retained in an'extended position.
To project the arrow th'e trigger lfi is drawnrearwardly-until the pin .18 leaves one 'of thejnotches 141st .wh ich-time the bow string snaps the discg12 around so -I 1 that the string is released and the arrow projected. I
The attachment may readily be mounted on the side I and prevent the arrow accidentally dropping from the bow when the arrow is released, by the fingers of the archer. I p I It will be understood that modifications, within the the arrow to frictionally retain the arrow in position i scope of the appended claim, may be made in the design and'arr'ang'ement of the parts without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What is claimed is: I g In an attachment for a how, the combination which comprises a tube, a clamp 'for mounting the tube "on the side of a bow, a telescoping rod having a recess therein adjacent one end thereof slidably mounted in the tube, a latch mounted in the recess in the rod and engaging the end of the tube for retaining the rod in an extended position in relation to the tube, said rod having an open ended longitudinally extending bore in the other end thereof, a horizontally disposed notched disc rotatably mounted in the bore in the rod and positioned whereby one of the notches receives the bow string, a trigger actuated rod slidably mounted in the bore in the telescoping rod outwardly of the notched disc and having a pin on one end thereof positioned to extend into one of the notches of the notched disc, resilient means positioned in the bore in the telescoping rod and having one end thereof engaging the other end of the trig 'ger actuated rod for urgingthe pin into one of the notches of the notched disc, and a cap threaded on the opene'nd of the telescoping rod and engaging the other end of the resilient means for retaining the parts in operative position;
