Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A device having a stationary member fixed to the grip portion of a how, the member having a through hole therein, a movable member having an plate member tranversely movable to various positions with respect to the movable member and an inner-threaded cylindrical section slidably inserted in the through hole of the stationary member, and a control member having an outer threaded extension engaged with the innerthreaded cylindrical section of the movable member.
  • the rotation of the control member permits the sliding movement of the movable member, thus adjusting the lateral position of the arrow rest in the sight window of the bow.
  • the movable member may further include a shock-absorbing arrow support, which absorbs the shocks caused when the arrow is released from the bow.
  • This invention relates to a device for adjusting the position of an archery bow arrow rest, by which the arrow rest can be adjustably moved in and out of the side of the archery bow, permitting the archer to select a desired position of the arrow with respect to the archery bow. Further, the device has a shock-absorbing arrow support so as to absorb the shock caused the instant when the arrow is released.
  • an archer can hit the target accurately by practising the proper techniques from nocking to releasing.
  • the hitting rate can be improved by practising the proper method for shooting an arrow so far as the, bowsight and the arrow rest are disposed at a mostsuitable location for the archer.
  • the location of the bowsight and the arrow rest with respect to the bow is not suited for the archer, and this becomes a cause of hindering the improvement of his techniques.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide an adjustable arrow rest device for an archery bow by which the arrow rest can be adjustably positioned in and out of the side of the bow.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an adjustable arrow restdevice for an archery bow which effectively absorbs the shock caused when the arrow is released from the bow. 7
  • FIG. 2 is a side viewof the adjustable arrow rest device shown in FIG. I;
  • FIG. 3 is a front external view of the adjustable arrow rest device.
  • a movable member A which is formed substantially in the shape of a short cylinder, is embedded slidably in a recess or room la formed in the handle section I of an archery bow on the side of a sight window 2.
  • the movable member A has an upper section Al and a lower section A2.
  • the upper section A] has a threaded through hole 3.
  • One mouth of the: through hole 3 that is located near the sight window 2 of the archery bow is narrower than the other mouth thereof. From the broader mouth, a damper shaft 5 having a diskshap'ed base 6 is inserted into the hole 3 together with rubber buffer pieces 7, 7', with the base 6 interposed between the pieces 7 and 7'.
  • a screw 23 is tightly screwed into the broader mouth of the through hole 3, so that the base 6 of the damper shaft 5 is held in the hole 3 with a proper resiliency.
  • the resiliency may be properly adjusted by tightening or loosening the screw 23.
  • To the outwardly projecting erid of the damper shaft 5 is attached an arrow supporting plate 4 by means of a screw or other suitable means, the arrow supporting plate 4 serving to determine the set position of an arrow indicated by a dotted circle 8 in FIG. 1.
  • the lower section A2 of the movable member A is formed into an inner-threaded cylindrical projection 10 of an appropriate length extending from the sight-window side of the bow 1 towards the opposite side thereof.
  • a rhomboidal plate member 13 is attached to the sight window side of the movable member A by means of a screw 14, which is screwed into the inner-threaded lower section A2 of the movable member A, that is, the threaded through hole 9 of the lower section A2.
  • This stationary member B also has a guide 15 disposed on the inside wall thereof.
  • the guide 15 is fitted into an elongated slot or groove 11 formed on the outside wall of the lower section A2.
  • the guide 15 runs in the lengthwise direction of the lower section A2. This guide permits the sliding movement of the lower section A2 within the through hole 24 of the stationary member B and prevents the lower section A2 from rotating.
  • the plate member 13 has two horizontally parallely extending elongated openings 20 and 21, into which the screw 14 and the damper shaft 5 are inserted, respectively.
  • the method of operation for the adjustable arrow rest device for an archery bow of this invention is as follows. If an archer has found it necessary to move the arrow rest towards or away from the bow, he only turns the knob 18. Further, if he finds it necessary to position the arrow rest closer to or more away from the bowstring, he only loosens the screw 14 and moves the plate member 13, horizontally along the openings and 21. As the movable member A provided with the arrow supporting plate 4 and the arrow rest 12 can be moved horizontally by turning the knob 18, an archer can regulate the lateral position of the arrow supporting plate 4 and arrow rest 12, as desired, by means of the turning knob 18.
  • the device of this invention can achieve a very fine positional adjustment of the arrow supporting plate and arrow rest, since the back-andforth movement of the movable member is carried out by the threaded engagement of the lower section A2 and shaft 19.
  • the present invention provides the adjustable arrow rest device for. an archery bow which improves the hitting rate with the archery bow, as the adjustment of the position of the arrow rest can be achieved easily and the shock produced at the time of release of an arrow is absorbed and reduced by the rubber buffer pieces through the damper shaft.
  • the device of the present invention is simple in construction and is easy in operation, and moreover, it is excellent in stability as the position of the arrow rest does not shift unless the knob of the control member is turned.
  • a device for adjusting the position of an arrow rest for an archery bow comprising:
  • a stationary member affixable to an archery bow; said stationary member having a through hole therein;
  • a movable member including a projection slidably inserted in said through hole of said stationary member; a plate member having an opening which extends elongated across said plate;
  • said movable member further includes an arrow supporting member; a resilient buffer member supported by said movable member and resiliently supporting said arrow supporting member;
  • said plate member having a second elongated opening extending generally parallel to said first mentioned opening; said arrow supporting member extending through said second elongated opening.
  • a device for adjusting the position of an arrow rest for an archery bow comprising:
  • a base member juxtaposed said first means along an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a bow
  • said first means being movable along said axis; said first means having a plate member for supporting an arrow, said plate member having an opening which extends elongated across said plate;
  • second means for fastening said plate member to said base member for selectively positioning said plate member in various transverse positions with respect to the base mamber; said second means being positioned in said opening; loosening of said second means allows said plate member to be moved along said opening with respect to said base member.
  • a resilient buffer member attached to said plate member and resiliently supporting said arrow suuporting member
  • said plate member having a second elongated opening extending generally parallel to said first mentioned opening; said arrow supporting member extending through said second elongated opening, whereby said plate member is movable along said first mentioned and said second elongated openings with respect to said base member.
