ABSTRACT:
The archery bow assembly includes an archery bow having a pair of limbs connected to a central riser handle defining an arrow window and interconnected by a bowstring. It also includes a pendulum-type disappearing arrow rest with a side pressure point. The rest includes a pair of generally flat, forwardly extending, flexible, resilient inner and outer blades. The inner blade lies next to the sidewall of the arrow window and includes a front support adapted to project through a notch in the outer blade to support an arrow when the inner blade is biased outwardly. The outer blade serves as a side pressure plate and may have a single pressure point. The rear ends of the blades are connected to a transverse bar slideably or threadably received in the rear end of a mounting block connected to the sidewall of the riser opposite the window and extending rearwardly thereof. A pin is slideably disposed in a hollow tube passing transversely through the riser into communication with the window. The pin has one end bearing against the inner blade and the opposite end projecting out the tube and an opening in a flat pendulum plate pivotably connected to the tube for swinging movement forwardly and rearwardly. The pin can be biased against the inner blade so that a notch in the pin engages the plate, forcing the arrow support portion of the blade to an operative position. When an arrow is fired from the bow the vibration caused thereby automatically disengages the plate from the notch and allows the arrow support portion to spring back to a retracted arrow-clearing position.
