DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Referring to FIG. 1, a takedown-type bow 10 is illustrated in assembled position and comprises a bow handle number 12, a pair of bow limbs 14, 16 removably connected to the ends of the handle member by identical assembly components at 18, 20, and a bow string 22. In FIG. 2, the limb 14 is shown in a disassembled position relative to the handle member with limb end assembly portion 24 completely disassociated from handle member assembly portion 26. The limbs may be made of a suitablefiberglass plastic material. The handle member may be made of one-piece cast metallic material having relatively thin end portions 28, which terminate in enlarged outwardly flared socket portions 32, 34 generally T-shaped cross sectional configuration. 1
Referring now to FIGS. 3 and 4, wherein the identical parts of the assembly apparatus of the opposite limbs l4, 16 are hereafter referred to by common reference numerals, the handle member isprovided with socket means in the form of an elongated fla'tlimb abutment side surface 40 facing forwardly (i.e., toward the back side of the handle) relative to the bow while extending between spaced parallel flat transverse edge surfaces 42, 44 and beneath flange means in the form of an integral flange portion 46 overlying the innerend portion of surface 40 to provide a limb end cavity with a relatively short limb abutment side surface 48 facing surface 40 and facing rearwardly (i.e., toward the belly side ofthe handle) relative to the bow. It is to be understood that terms forwardly and rearwardly as used herein refer, respectively, to the side of'the bow facing the direction in which an arrow is propelled, and to the side of the bow facing the drawstring 22. An integral holding rib 50 is centrally located in the cavity and extends. away from the central portion of the handle member with a rounded transverse end surface 52 facing the cavity opening.
A clamping means in the form ofa relatively thin spring steel sheet metal band member 60 having a generally rectangular cross sectional configuration, FIGS. 5-7, is fixedly mounted on the outer end of surface 40 by inwardly extending integral rib portions 61, 62 on sidewall portions 64, 66 which are slidably received in integral guideway slots 68, 70. The width of the outer end of surface 40 is slightly reduced so that outer surfaces of sidewall portions 64, 66 are substantially flush with the outer surfaces 42, 44. The clamping means is fixed on end of the handle member by threaded fastening elements 72, 74. An integral resilient tang means 76 is centrally formed in the upper wall portion. 78 of band member 60 with a detent portion 80 located within the limb cavity provided by the band member and the surface 40.
Limb-retaining means are provided on the ends of the limbs for cooperable retaining association with the socket means and theclamping means comprising a generally rectangular pad member 90, which may be of suitable plastic material such as fiberglass, fixedly adhesively secured on the limb end portion 92 which is of generally similar rectangular configuration. A centrally located notch 94 is provided at the inner ends of the limbs for cooperative engagement with ribs 50 and a transverse groove 96 extends across-the pad member for cooperative engagement with the resilient tang. As shown best in FIG. 4, the tang 80 has a generally V- shaped cross sectional configuration and the groove 96 is of generally similar, though somewhat more rounded, cross sectional configuration.
In order to assemble a limb with the handle member, the inner end of the limb is inserted into the cavity provided by band member 60 and slid therewithin toward the limb end cavity and rib S0. The resilient tang 76 is resiliently outwardly deflected by engagement with the adjacent surface of pad member 90 and, when the rib 50 is received in the limb end notch 94, partially springs back into groove 96 which has a depth less than the normal position of the tang to provide resilient spring-like engagement therebetween which holds the limb in place during use of the bow while permitting removal by pulling outwardly on the limb to disassemble the bow.
