The assembly includes an adjuster support, a driver engaged with the adjuster support, and a biaser coupled to the driver. The biaser is configured to generate a biasing force acting on the driver.
Claims20
An arrow rest assembly comprising:
- a bow engagement portion configured to be mounted to an archery bow, wherein the archery bow comprises a bowstring moveable within a first plane, and the archery bow comprises a riser, wherein at least part of the riser extends along a riser axis that intersects with a second plane;
- a coupler configured to couple the bow engagement portion to the archery bow;
- an accessory support coupled to the bow engagement portion, wherein the accessory support is configured to support a bow accessory, the accessory support comprising:
- a vertical adjuster configured to enable the accessory support to be moved relative to the bow engagement portion along a vertical axis, wherein the vertical axis intersects with the second plane, wherein the vertical adjuster comprises:
- a vertical support;
- a vertical driver rotatably engaged with the vertical support;
- and
- a vertical biaser coupled to the vertical driver, the vertical biaser configured to generate a vertical force acting on the vertical driver along the vertical axis;
- and
- a lateral adjuster configured to enable the accessory support to be moved relative to the bow engagement portion along a lateral axis, wherein the lateral axis intersects with the first plane, wherein the lateral adjuster comprises:
- a lateral support;
- a lateral driver rotatably engaged with the lateral support;
- and
- a lateral biaser coupled to the lateral driver, the lateral biaser configured to generate a lateral force acting on the lateral driver along the lateral axis;
- and
- an arrow rest accessory supported by the accessory support, wherein the arrow rest accessory comprises an arrow holder, wherein the arrow holder defines a space configured to receive a portion of an arrow.
An arrow rest assembly comprising:
- a bow engagement portion configured to be mounted to an archery bow;
- an accessory support configured to be coupled to the bow engagement portion, wherein the accessory support comprises an adjuster configured to enable the accessory support to be moved relative to the bow engagement portion along an adjustment axis, wherein the adjuster comprises:
- an adjuster support;
- a driver rotatably engaged with the adjuster support;
- and
- a biaser coupled to the driver, the biaser configured to generate a biasing force acting on the driver along the adjustment axis;
- and
- an arrow rest accessory supported by the accessory support, wherein the arrow rest accessory comprises an arrow holder.
A method for manufacturing an arrow rest assembly, the method comprising:
- structuring a bow engagement portion so that the bow engagement portion is configured to mount to an archery bow;
- structuring an accessory support so that the accessory support is configured to be coupled to the bow engagement portion, wherein the accessory support comprises an adjuster configured to enable the accessory support be moved relative to the bow engagement portion along an adjustment axis, wherein the adjuster comprises:
- an adjuster support;
- a driver rotatably engaged with the adjuster support;
- and
- a biaser coupled to the driver, wherein the biaser is configured to generate a biasing force acting on the driver along an adjustment axis;
- and
- structuring an arrow rest accessory to be supported by the accessory support and to hold an arrow.
