Abstract

In some embodiments, an archery bow comprises a riser, a limb assembly attached to the riser and a stabilizer. The limb assembly comprises a first limb member and a second limb member. The stabilizer is attached to the riser, and at least a portion of the stabilizer is oriented between the first limb member and the second limb member.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An archery bow comprising:
a riser comprising a threaded cavity and a grip;
a shooting axis;
a first limb attached to the riser;
a second limb attached to the riser; and
a bowstring extending between the first limb and the second limb, the bowstring comprising a segment;
wherein a central axis of the threaded cavity is oriented parallel to the bowstring segment in an undrawn condition of the archery bow and a distance from the shooting axis to the threaded cavity is greater than a distance from the shooting axis to the grip.

2. The archery bow of claim 1 , the central axis oriented orthogonal to the shooting axis.

3. The archery bow of claim 2 , wherein the shooting axis intersects the bowstring segment.

4. The archery bow of claim 2 , the riser comprising a vibration damper, wherein a distance between the shooting axis and the threaded cavity is greater than a distance between the shooting axis and the vibration damper.

5. The archery bow of claim 1 , comprising a stabilizer attached to the threaded cavity.

6. The archery bow of claim 5 , a longitudinal axis of the stabilizer oriented parallel to the central axis.

7. The archery bow of claim 5 , the first limb comprising a limb assembly comprising a first limb member and the second limb member, at least a portion of the stabilizer oriented between the first limb member and the second limb member.

8. The archery bow of claim 5 , the limb assembly comprising a tension side and a compression side, a first end of the stabilizer oriented on the compression side, a second end of the stabilizer oriented on the tension side.

9. The archery bow of claim 5 , the stabilizer comprising a spike.

10. An archery bow comprising:
a riser;
a limb cup attached to the riser, the limb cup comprising a threaded cavity, the limb cup supporting a first limb;
a second limb attached to the riser; and
a bowstring extending between the first limb and the second limb, the bowstring comprising a segment;
wherein a central axis of the threaded cavity is oriented parallel to the bowstring segment in an undrawn condition of the archery bow.

11. The archery bow of claim 10 , the bow comprising a shooting axis, the central axis oriented orthogonal to the shooting axis.

12. The archery bow of claim 11 , wherein the shooting axis intersects the bowstring segment.

13. The archery bow of claim 11 , the riser comprising a vibration damper, wherein a distance between the shooting axis and the threaded cavity is greater than a distance between the shooting axis and the vibration damper.

14. The archery bow of claim 10 , comprising a stabilizer attached to the threaded cavity.

15. The archery bow of claim 14 , a longitudinal axis of the stabilizer oriented parallel to the central axis.

16. The archery bow of claim 14 , the threaded cavity comprising a first threaded cavity, the limb cup comprising a second threaded cavity.

17. The archery bow of claim 16 , wherein a central axis of the second threaded cavity is non-parallel to the central axis of the first threaded cavity.

18. The archery bow of claim 14 , the stabilizer comprising a spike.
