Benefits of technology

The patent describes a mounting bracket for an extension bar of an archer. The bracket has an opening with a screw for locking the bar in place. The bracket also has a plunger and a set screw for adjusting the force of a spring against the bar. A sight can be positioned at a desired distance from the archer's eye by moving the bar and locking it in place. The technical effect is a more convenient and adjustable way to lock the extension bar in place, allowing for easier and more precise sighting.

Problems solved by technology

However, after multiple firings of the bow, vibrations between the bow mounting bracket and the extension bar ultimately twist the screw resulting in inaccuracies due to undesirable location movement of the sight pin in relation to the bow.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]The archery sight bow mount according to the disclosure includes a mounting bracket 2 having a first side 4 and a second side 6 arranged on opposite sides of a channel 8 which is configured to receive an extension bar 10 as shown in FIGS. 1-4. In the embodiment shown, the extension bar has a dovetail configuration and extends along a first axis 12. The channel of the mounting bracket is configured to match the dovetail configuration of the extension bar so that the extension bar may be displaced relative to the mounting bracket in a first axial direction. One end of the extension bar is connected with a sight extension rail, not shown, in a conventional manner using a connection assembly 13 as shown in FIG. 2. An archery sight (not shown) is connected with the extension rail. The mounting bracket 2 includes a plurality of openings 14 which receive screws to connect the mounting bracket with a bow in a conventional manner. The mounting bracket is formed of a rigid material such...

Abstract

An archery sight bow mount includes a mounting bracket and wedge mechanism which is operable to secure a sight mounted on an extension bar in a selected position relative to the mounting bracket which is connected with a bow. The wedge mechanism includes a wedge connected with the mounting bracket and operable between locked and released positions where the wedge is tightly secured between the extension bar and the mounting bracket to lock the extension arm in the selected position and where the wedge is spaced from the extension bar to release the bar from the selected position, respectively. A setting mechanism is connected with the mounting bracket to assist with positioning the extension arm in one of many selected positions relative to the mounting bracket.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE[0001]Archery sights are used by hunters and competition archers to increase the accuracy of a shot. The sights are typically mounted on a sight extension rail which in turn is connected with an extension bar or a sight may be attached directly to the bow. A bow mount or mounting bracket is used to connect the extension bar with a bow. The extension bar is adjustable relative to the bow mount to properly position the sight pin closer to or farther away from the archer.[0002]Archery sights normally include one or more sight pins. Improvements in sight technology have reduced or eliminated backlash of the sight pins along horizontal and vertical axes when a shot is fired. However, vibrations between the bow mounting bracket and the extension bar during firing produce sight pin location variations which decrease accuracy. That is, the sight pin fluctuates in position due to movement of the extension bar within the bow mount.[0003]The present disclosure relat...
