ABSTRACT:
An arrow rest support shaft or rod with enhanced positioning capability is described. Simple, precise and manually effected positioning of an arrow rest is achieved. A bolt or a threaded stud extending through a predrilled and tapped hole in the bow window is threaded in and locked in place by a bow-abutting lock nut. An elongate shaft projects through and is slideably positionable in an elongate bore extending coaxially through the stud. An arrow rest or a plate for supporting a rest, is attachable to an end of the shiftable shaft. An important feature of the invention comprises an improved and manually- actuable assembly for easily and reliably fixedly securing the slideable arrow-rest-carrying shaft in selectable positions, and immobile with respect to the encircling, bow-mounted stud. One embodiment of the invention utilizes a stud-carried, collet-like end flange or ferrule which may be forcibly compressed radially by a shoulder of a wing nut threaded on the stud, so as stressingly to bear upon the shaft and thus to hold the shaft fixed in the encircling stud. In a second embodiment, an O-ring type element is brought into stressing engagement with the perimetric periphery of the shaft and with an edge of the stud--again to lock the stud and shaft against relative movement. Alternatively, a recessed set screw disposed radially in the stud may be used to hold the shaft fixed with respect to the bored stud.
