Adjustable mechanical vibration limiting and absorbing apparatus

摘要

An adjustable mechanical vibration limiting and absorbing device for an archery bow including a hollow housing and two groups of elastomer washers provided in the hollow housing with a means for preventing the first group from advancing out of the hollow housing and separating the first group from the second group. In addition, a fastener extends through the center of the first and second groups of elastomer washers and a lock nut and weight are provided on the projecting end of the fastener.

主权项

1. An adjustable mechanical vibration limiting and absorbing apparatus comprising:
a hollow housing; a fastener comprising a head end contained within the hollow housing and a projecting end extending outside of the hollow housing; and components arranged in order as follows from the head end of the fastener to the projecting end of the fastener:
a first group of at least one elastomer washer provided in said housing and fitted onto the fastener in contact with the head end;a means for preventing said first group of at least one elastomer washer from advancing outside of the housing;a second group of at least one elastomer washer fitted onto said fastener;anda weight provided outside of the housing fitted onto said projecting end of said fastener; wherein the weight is turned and tightened outside of the housing on the fastener, without removing any of the components from within the housing, to cause the first and second groups of at least one elastomer washer to compress and to expand against an interior surface of the housing, and to thereby vary mechanical vibration limiting and absorbing characteristics of the apparatus.
