Archery Bow Vibration Dampener

US Patent:
6684874, Feb 3, 2004
Filed:
Dec 27, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/035041
Inventors:
Robert S. Mizek - Downers Grove IL
Frank A. Harwath - Downers Grove IL
Miroslav A. Simo - Riverside IL
Assignee:
New Archery Products Corp. - Forest Park IL
International Classification:
F41B 520
US Classification:
124 89
Abstract:
A device for reducing vibration and shock in an archery bow includes a base and an integral body formed of a flexible material. The body includes a non-uniform cross-section as the body extends away from the base and terminates in a peripheral mass positioned on a distal portion of the body opposite the base. As a result of such an arrangement, including the alternative of positioning two devices in axial alignment on an archery bow limb, vibration and shock following discharge of an arrow are greatly reduced in the archery bow.

Arrowhead With Pivotally Mounted Blades

US Patent:
5564713, Oct 15, 1996
Filed:
Jan 5, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/368805
Inventors:

International Classification:
F42B 608
US Classification:
273421
Abstract:
A blade-opening arrowhead wherein at least one blade, preferably two blades, are pivotally mounted with respect to a blade carrying body. A bias force is used to urge an engagement member against a corresponding blade. The bias force is preferably selected so that each blade remains in a normally closed position during flight or during handling of the arrowhead, but yet responsively and quickly moves to a fully open position upon impact or when a sufficient opening force is applied to the blade.

Abstract:
A rotatable arrowhead has a blade cartridge that can either rotate with respect to a carrier, that can be attached to an arrow shaft, or be fixed from such rotation. The carrier extends within a throughbore of the blade cartridge. When the blade cartridge is fitted with its throughbore surrounding a cartridge-receiving portion of the carrier, a retention member can be retainably engaged in a bore of the carrier to rotatably contain the blade cartridge between a front conical guide surface and a rear conical guide surface. A removable tip can be contained in the throughbore of the blade cartridge at a forward end of the arrowhead.
