Adjustable cable anchors for a compound bow

摘要

The free end portions of the cables of a two-wheel type compound bow are extended to the back of the bow over pulleys rotatably mounted on the wheel shafts, the cable ends are fixed in one end of screws movable longitudinally in bores in adjacent anchor members fixed to the back of the bow and nuts threadedly engaged on the screws and bearing against the anchor members move the screws longitudinally when turned. In a modification anchor members on the front side of the bow are connected to the wheel shafts by flexible loops extending over small pulleys on the shafts and the free ends of the cables are mounted for free rotation in hollow screws threadedly engaged and screw threaded through bores in the anchor members.
