Abstract
An archery coupling assembly and method are disclosed herein. The archery coupling assembly, in an embodiment, includes a coupler configured to be coupled to a body of an archery bow. The archery coupling assembly also includes a device moveably coupled to the coupler. The device includes a first engager configured to engage a first portion of the body, and the device includes a second engager configured to engage a second portion of the body. The first and second engagers are arranged to at least partially compress the body of the archery bow.
Claims20
An archery coupling assembly comprising:
- a mounting portion configured to be coupled to a riser of an archery bow, wherein the mounting portion is configured to be positioned in a vertical position in which the mounting portion extends along a vertical axis;
- and
- a device moveably coupled to the mounting portion, wherein the device comprises:
- a support portion configured to support an archery accessory;
- a first engager configured to engage a first part of the mounting portion;
- and
- a second engager configured to engage a second part of the mounting portion,
- wherein the first and second engagers are arranged to compress a section of the mounting portion located between the first and second engagers,
- wherein the device is configured to be moved along the vertical axis relative to the mounting portion while the device is coupled to the mounting portion positioned in the vertical position,
- wherein, when the device is coupled to the mounting portion, the mounting portion is coupled to the riser, and the support portion supports the archery accessory, the archery accessory moves relative to the riser along the vertical axis in response to a movement of the device relative to the mounting portion.
An archery coupling assembly comprising:
- a mounting portion configured to be coupled to a body of an archery bow, wherein the mounting portion, when vertically oriented, extends at least partially along a vertical axis;
- and
- a device moveably coupled to the mounting portion, wherein the device comprises:
- a first engager configured to engage a first part of the mounting portion;
- and
- a second engager configured to engage a second part of the mounting portion,
- wherein the first and second engagers are arranged to at least partially compress the mounting portion,
- wherein the device is configured to be moved, along the vertical axis, relative to the mounting portion when the device is coupled to the mounting portion.
A method for manufacturing an archery coupling assembly, the method comprising:
- configuring a mounting portion to be coupled to a body of an archery bow;
- and
- configuring a device to be moveably coupled to the mounting portion so that, when the device is coupled to the mounting portion and the mounting portion is vertically oriented, the device is vertically moveable relative to the mounting portion, wherein the configuring of the device comprises:
- configuring a first engager to engage a first part of the mounting;
- configuring a second engager to engage a second part of the mounting;
- and
- arranging the first and second engagers to be moveable toward each other to at least partially compress the mounting portion.
