Abstract

Abstract A device having a stationary member fixed to the grip portion of a bow, the member having a through hole therein, a movable member having an plate member transversely 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 inner-threaded 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.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 135 words
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; means for fastening said plate member to said projection and for selectively positioning said plate in varied transverse positions with respect to the projection; said fastening means being positioned in said plate opening; loosening of said fastening means allowing said plate member to be moved along said opening with respect to said projection; an arrow rest attached to said plate member; and a control member having an extension engaged with said projection for moving said projection.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 135 words
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; means for fastening said plate member to said projection and for selectively positioning said plate in varied transverse positions with respect to the projection; said fastening means being positioned in said plate opening; loosening of said fastening means allowing said plate member to be moved along said opening with respect to said projection; an arrow rest attached to said plate member; and a control member having an extension engaged with said projection for moving said projection.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 59 words
The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein 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.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
The device as claimed in claim 2, further comprising means for adjusting the resiliency of said buffer member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
The device as claimed in claim 2, wherein said projection is screw threaded, said fastening means screws said plate member to said projection and said control member extension is threaded and threadedly engages said projection.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 35 words
The device as claimed iN claim 1, wherein said projection is screw threaded, said fastening means screws said plate member to said projection and said control member extension is threaded and threadedly engages said projection.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 44 words
The device as claimed in claim 5, wherein said threaded projection of said movable member is formed into an internally threaded cylindrical projection; said extension of said control member is externally threaded; said externally threaded extension being engaged with said internally threaded cylindrical projection.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 126 words
A device for adjusting the position of an arrow rest for an archery bow, comprising: first means for supporting an arrow; 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.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 126 words
A device for adjusting the position of an arrow rest for an archery bow, comprising: first means for supporting an arrow; 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.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 76 words
The device as claimed in claim 7, further comprising: an arrow supporting 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.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
The device as claimed in claim 8, further comprising means for adjusting the resiliency of said buffer member.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 14 words
The device as claimed in claim 7, wherein said second means is a screw.
