Abstract: The present disclosure provides an energy storage and relock mechanism for a power assisted bow comprising a charge cam and a lock plate adjacent to the charge cam. The charge cam may be configured to store potential energy by rotating in a first direction and the lock plate may be configured urge rotation of the charge cam in the first direction to lock potential energy in the power assisted bow.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a cam assembly, the cam assembly comprising a main cam, a shoot cam coupled to the main cam, and a charge cam coupled to the main cam, wherein the main cam, the shoot cam, and the charge cam are configured to rotate in response to an external force, and the charge cam is configured to persistently store potential energy in the cam assembly upon rotation of the charge cam a predetermined distance.

Abstract: A compound bow may feature the ability to pre-store energy before the drawing back of the draw string. Various embodiments contemplate that this may allow an archer to draw back the draw string or cable, and upon reaching the let off region of the compound bow's draw profile, cause the pre-stored energy to be transferred to the energy being stored by the bow. Various embodiments contemplate that this addition of pre-stored energy may give the archer more energy, held in the draw string or cable, to transfer to an arrow upon release, propelling it at greater speeds than would have been achieved with a compound bow of equal draw weight that does not feature an energy storage mechanism.

For example, this may remove the pre-stored energy from the draw string or cable as the draw string or cable is returned to an undrawn position.

Abstract: An archery bow is described, and which has a resilient, main body having opposite distal ends; a biasing member is borne by the main body; and a string extends, and is tensioned between the distal ends, and wherein the string has a first, at rest position; a second, arrow release position; and a third, string return position, and wherein the biasing member applies a biasing force to resist the movement of the string from the third, string return position, to the first, at rest position, and a biasing force to assist in the movement of the string from the first, at rest position, to the second, arrow release position.
