Abstract: A crossbow case with an exterior shell and an interior compartment within the exterior shell. The exterior shell is made of ethylene-vinyl acetate. The exterior shell has a thickness in the range of about 1/16 to ¼ of an inch. The exterior shell includes a top member and a bottom member in a hinged configuration.

Abstract: A crossbow track assembly includes a crossbow track having a top surface and a side surface. The top surface includes an arrow track. The side surface includes a longitudinal passage leading to a longitudinal cavity. The side surface forms an upper shoulder and a lower shoulder of the longitudinal cavity. A second side surface may include a second longitudinal passage leading to a second longitudinal cavity. The second side surface may form an upper shoulder and a lower shoulder of the second longitudinal cavity. The crossbow track assembly may further include a crossbow accessory including an accessory body operatively connected to a plug, which is dimensioned to fit within the longitudinal cavity of the crossbow track for securing the accessory body to the crossbow track. The accessory body may be adjustably connected to the plug with a fastener. Alternatively, the plug may be in sliding engagement with the longitudinal cavity.

Abstract: A crossbow including a receptacle in a side of the crossbow's stock configured to receive a portion of a cocking device in a storage position, and a bore through a rear portion of the stock configured to receive a spool of the cocking device. A cover is pivotally connected to the rear portion of the stock. When closed, the cover blocks access to the bore. In a cocking position, the spool of the cocking device is rotatably disposed within the bore.

Abstract: A weapon stabilizing device for stabilizing a weapon during use. The device includes a spool member configured to release and retract an anchor line with rotation of the spool member. A lock member prevents rotation of the spool member in a locked position and allows rotation of the spool member in a released position. Actuation of an activation member switches the lock member from a default position to an activated position. The default position may be the locked position or the released position. When the default position is the locked position, the activated position is the released position. When the default position is the released position, the activated position is the locked position. A spool spring may provide continuous positive rotation of the spool member in the released position. The weapon stabilizing device may be connected to or within a base of a weapon.

Abstract: Methods and implementations of using a device interface cable assembly are described herein. In some examples, a modular cable and device interface cable assembly may connect a control system such as a home automation control system to a device control port on a device such as a television. A controller device may use the device interface cable assembly and modular cable to send or receive commands and status messages to or from a remote device. Customized commands may provide direct access to all of the functionality in the remote device, and may avoid the need to navigate a series of menus on the remote device. The modular cable and device interface cable assembly may provide two-way communication between the control system and the remote device. Two-way communication may include verification of command message or gestures, or may include retrieval of remote device status information.
