ARCHERY BOW WITH ROTATABLE I-IANDGRIP perfectly steady and eliminate all tendency toward deflection.
It is essential especially for archers involved in competition that the bow be held as steady as possible until the arrow has cleared the bow. Any slight movement of the wrist during aiming or upon" release of the bowstring will greatly magnify the error in the course of the arrow's flight since the rear end of the arrow is guided by the bowstring which is a considerable distance to the rear of the bow when drawn. Also, the arrow rest and center section are in contact with the arrow during the initial stage of its flight. Hence any movement of the bow during this stage of the arrow s flight has a significant effect on the accuracy of the flight of the arrow.
Furthermore, slight vertical movements of the hand just prior to releasing the arrow are imported to the bow thereby causing an imbalance of forces in the end portions of the bow which results in a stronger pull on the upper or lower part of the bow. This in turn causes the arrow to deflect from the intended course. This problem is especially acute with archers involved in competitive marksmanship because they tend to take a longer time to aim the arrow before release.
In my'copending US. application Ser. No. 712,472, now U.S..Pat. No. 3,491,738, I illustrated a unique bow that overcomes the problems mentioned above through the use of a crescent-shaped handle assembly slidably mounted onv the bow to pivot about an axis substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bow to isolate slight movements of the archers hand on the bow during aiming and releasing. The handle is also rotatably mounted relative to the handle assembly to allow rotational movement around an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the bow to further isolate movement of the archers hand from the bow.
This invention constitutes an improvement on the bow of my copending application by eliminating the crescent shape assembly and providing a simplified connection between the handle and the bow that still provides for rotational movement of the handle around an axis parallel to the bow as well as limited pivotal movement about an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the bow. This novel connection eliminates some of the fine machining required in my previous bow and locates the critical pressure focal point nearer the arrow draw plane of thebow which simplifies the balancing of the forces in the bow. This structure greatly minimizes the problem of unequal forces 'in the limbs of the bow when the string is drawn.
Therefore it is an object of this invention to provide a new and improved archers bow.
Another object of this invention isto provide a new and imvention;
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be apparent from the following description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is a side view of little more than half of the archers bow incorporating the handle assembly of this invention;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross section view of the bow handle assembly of this invention;
FIG. 3 is an end view of the bow handle shown in FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a view of an alternative handle assembly of this in- FIG. 5 is an end view partially in section of the handle assembly of FIG. 4; and
FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the handle assembly of FIG. 5 taken along the line Vl-VI.
Referring more particularly to the drawing by characters of reference, the bow 10 illustrated in FIG. 1 is of the composite recurve type and comprises an elongated member having a central section 11 and highly flexible end or limb portions 12 (only one of which is shown) curved forwardly in the usual manner for receiving the string of the bow.
The central section 11 of the bow 10 is substantially wider, thicker and more rigid than the limb portions 12 which may be detachably mounted on the central section. As shown in FIG. 3, the upper portion of one side of the central section 11 is cut away to near the centerline of the bow in the usual way to facilitate shooting the arrow. An arrow rest 13 extends outwardly from the central section 11 to provide a guide for the arrows. A
The preferred handle assembly 15 of this invention consists ofa handle member 16 positioned in a cutout portion 17 in the central section 11 of the bow and is connected to the bow by a pivotable joint 18. The handle 16 is formed to fit the archers hand and has a longitudinal extended bore 20 defined therein. An appropriate pin 21 extends through the bore in the handle and is connected to the joint 18 at the upper end and to a base member 22 at its other end. The handle 16 is mounted in free sliding relation relative to the pin 21 so that it can freely rotate around the pin. The axis of the pin is designed to be substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bow 10 in its normal unstressed position.
As shown in FIG. 2, the joint 18 comprises a cylindrical bearing member 27 mounted in a bore 28 in the upper part of the central portion 17 of the bow to pivot about an axis 29 transverse to the longitudinal axis of the bow. The pin 21 is connected to the bearing member 27 by any suitable means such as by having its upper end screwed into an appropriate proved handle for an archer's how that can pivot relative to the how about an'axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bow.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved handle for an archers how that can rotate relative to the bow about an axis extending substantially longitudinally of the bow.
Another object of this invention is to provide a new and improved handle for an archers bow that is connected to the bow at asingle point and rotates about an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bow and about anaxis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bow to substantially isolate inadvertent movements of the handle from the bow during aiming and releasing of the arrow.
threaded bore 30 in the bearing member 27. A bushing 31 is mounted in the top of the handle and surrounds the pin 21 in sliding relation. The bushing is fixed relative to the handle so that the handle swivels around the pin 21 and hence around an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bow. In addition, the handle may pivot around an axis transverse to the bow because it is connected to the bearing member 27 which is slidably mounted in the bore 28.
An arm support member 23 is connected to the handle assembly to steady the archers arm during aiming and shooting. As shown in FIG. 3, the support member has a pair of arms 24 connected at one end to the handle base 22 and extend away from the bow. A suitable sling member 25 extends loosely between the other ends of the support arms 24 to form a sup port for the archer. This member provides the archer with a support from which he can apply pressure on the handle as the bowstring is being drawn and provides a steadying means to minimize the deflection of the handle relative to the bow when the bowstring is drawn.
An alternative embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 4-6 in which the handle is attached to the bow by a ball and socket-type joint. The pin 35 has a ball 36 at its upper end that fits into a socket 37 formed in or attached to the central section 38 of the modified bow 40.
As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 the socket is formed between a detachable section 41 and the inside of the central section 38. Mating cutout portions 42 and 43 are formed in the complimentary surfaces of the central section and the detachable section 41 to define a sphere to receive the ball 36. After the ball has been placed within the sphere the detachable section is connected to the central section of the bow by suitable bolts '45.
Hence, the handle can rotate and pivot independently -of the bow to isolate the bow from slight movement of the hand during shooting of the bow in substantially the same way as the handle assembly shown in FIGS. 1-3.
In operation the archer grips the bow handle 16 and the sling 25 engages his arm used to grip the bow. When the string of the bow is pulled taut by the archer his hand gripping the handle may move slightly without transmitting the movement of the bow. For example, if the archers hand tends to pivot the handle in either direction around an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal'axis of the bow the handle will force the bearing member 27 or the ball 36 to pivot slightly within the bore 28 or socket 37 and hence about an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the bow without imparting any motion to the bow. If the archers hand tends to rotate the handle 16 in either direction around its longitudinal axis, the handle will rotate around the pin 21 and hence around an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bow. Slight movements of the handle are entirely independent of the bow and are not transmitted thereto.
As the archer draws the bowstring he applies considerable counter forces on the bow handle. These forces are concentrated at the junction of the pin and the socket or bearing member which is located very close to the draw plane of the arrow. This minimizes the problem of balancing the forces in the bow and simplifies the manufacture of the bow.
Although but two embodiments of this invention have been illustrated and described it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
