Abstract
An arrow rest arrangement for an archery bow and a quick change launcher formed from a friction reducing noise arresting polymer composition in selected sizes and shapes to facilitate different types of arrows. The launcher supports the arrow prior to launching and provides initial guidance to the arrow at launch. The arrow rest includes a holder for retaining the arrow in position prior to shooting.
Claims13
An arrow rest arrangement for an archery bow frame for use with an arrow having a shaft, comprising:
- a base member attached to said bow frame including a first hole and means for securing said base member to said bow frame for rotating attachment thereto providing a means for height adjustment, said base member including a second hole for receiving a rod extending perpendicular from one side thereof in the horizontal plane and being rotatably adjustable therewith providing a means for angle adjustment;
- a first pin received by said rod and extending outwardly from said rod and perpendicular thereto, said pin extending through said rod and being rotatably and slidably adjustable allowing for adjustment of the height and angle of said first pin;
- at least one arrow rest block comprising a solid block of polymer comprising at least a portion of tetrafluoroethylene, said at least one arrow rest block having a recess therein for receiving a shaft of an arrow, and said at least one arrow rest block cooperatively engaging said first pin and extending upwardly therefrom, said at least one arrow rest block having a shape for cooperatively engaging and guiding an arrow thereover;
- said first pin and said arrow rest block providing a means for adjusting the portion of said arrow rest block supporting said arrow.
An arrow rest arrangement for an archery bow including:
- a rod;
- a base member attached to said bow and adapted to receive said rod;
- a pin received by said rod extending outwardly from said rod;
- an arrow rest block carried by said pin having at least one angled surface to support an arrow shaft prior to launching;
- means for retaining an arrow shaft including a post extending outwardly from said rod;
- a means for swiveling at the distal end of said post;
- an arm received by said means for swiveling adapted to be moved from a first position for contacting said arrow shaft in said arrow rest to second position away from said arrow shaft.
An arrow rest arrangement for an archery bow including;
- a rod;
- a base member attached to said bow and adapted to receive said rod;
- a bracket extending outwardly from said rod;
- an axis extending parallel to said rod from the end of said bracket;
- an arrow rest block having an aperture for receiving said axis, said arrow rest block having a groove for supporting an arrow shaft prior to launching.
An arrow rest block having at least one groove therein for receiving a shaft of an arrow, said block comprising a material selected from the group consisting of polycarbonate, polytetrafluoroethylene, a silicon compound, and a fiberglass compound.
An arrow rest block having a groove therein for guiding a shaft of an arrow, said block comprising a polytetrafluoroethylene material.
