Abstract
A vibration dampener for an archery bow includes an adjustable housing containing a chamber in which an elastomeric assembly is arranged. The assembly includes a cylindrical sleeve in which a central elastomeric member is arranged and a pair of elastomeric members coaxial with the central member at opposite ends of the chamber. The elastomeric members are pressurized to absorb vibrations in three dimensions from the bow during execution of an archery shot. The pressure applied to the elastomeric members is adjustable through use of a compression assembly.
Claims11
An adjustable vibration dampener, comprising
- (a) an adjustable housing containing a chamber, said housing including a base and a compression assembly threadably connected with said base for longitudinal displacement between pressure and release positions;
- and
- (b) an elastomeric assembly arranged within said housing chamber, said elastomeric assembly having a cylindrical configuration and containing an empty axial chamber, said compression assembly applying increasing pressure on said elastomeric assembly as said compression assembly is displaced from said release position to said pressure position to press said elastomeric assembly against an inner surface of said housing, whereby adjustment of said housing controls the degree of vibration absorption by said elastomeric assembly in three dimensions.
