Bow press

An adjustable bow press for use with a plurality of user's bows, comprising:

• a) a rectangular base member, having opposing mounting brackets located on each end, to secure the rectangular base member to a rigid surface;
• b) an outwardly inclined left spacer bar having a slidable base portion adjustably positioned upon the base member and releasably secured thereto with a first tensioning member;
• c) an outwardly inclined right spacer bar having a slidable base portion adjustably positioned upon the base member and releasably secured thereto with a second tensioning member;
• d) a vertical riser bar adjustably positioned between said left spacer bar and said right spacer bar, said riser bar having a plurality of teeth extending vertically thereon;
• e) an inclined riser beam centrally secured to an upper end of the riser bar, the inclined riser beam having an upwardly inclined left side and an upwardly inclined right side, the inclined riser beam with a plurality of apertures horizontally extending in spaced relation along the inclined left side and the inclined right side of the inclined riser beam;
• e) a jack mechanism having at least one gear within a gear housing, the gear housing secured to the base member, the riser bar extending from the gear housing, the gear engagable with the plurality of teeth on the riser bar, the jack mechanism with a jack handle for manually rotating the gear to selectively raise and lower the riser bar;
• f) a first limb roller rotatably secured to the upper end of the left spacer bar and a second limb roller rotatably secured to the upper end of the right spacer bar;
• the first and second limb rollers each have an axle sized to be rotatably received in an aperture in one of the said left and right spacer bars;
• h) a first handle roller adjustably positioned and rotatably secured to the left side of the inclined riser beam and a second handle roller adjustably positioned and rotatably secured to the right side of the inclined riser beam, the first and second handle rollers each have an axle sized to be rotatably received in a selected aperture in said inclined riser beam;
• and the first and second limb rollers and the first and second handle rollers each have a first inclined side portion and a second inclined side portion, the first and second inclined side portions to form an inclined groove extending therebetween;
• wherein the left and right spacer bars are positioned and aligned with the limbs of a user's bow, the user's bow limbs are then placed upon the first and second limb rollers located upon the left and right spacer bars, and the inclined riser beam is adjusted in width to align with the user's bow handle, and the inclined riser beam is lowered with the jack mechanism to engage the first and second handle rollers upon the user's bow handle, to flex the user's bow for ease of maintenance and repair, while the inclined riser beam provides clearance for various objects secured to said handle of said bow.
