  • Patent number: 12687369
    Abstract: An archery release includes a hook that receives a force from a hook resilient member to help push the hook away from a moon when the archery release is moved to a released position. The archery release may comprise a body that includes a plurality of finger engagement surfaces, and a release extension that extends outward from between a first finger engagement surface and a second engagement surface. The archery release may also include a head pivotally connected to the release extension, a moon pivotally attached to the release extension, where the moon comprises a generally curved upper surface, a hook pivotally connected to the head, where the hook comprises a hook-shaped portion and a lower engaging surface, and a hook resilient member that applies a force to the hook.

  • Publication number: 20250224195
    Abstract: A bow grip aid may include a base removably attached to an archery bow grip in which the base is positioned on an outer portion of the bow grip, an adjustment arm movably attached to the base, and a protuberance attached to the adjustment arm in which the adjustment arm is movable about the mounting base, and the adjustment arm is extendable to modify a length of the adjustment arm, and the protuberance may include a cone having a circular or elliptical base.

  • Publication number: 20250189279
    Abstract: A variable cutting diameter arrowhead includes a first blade, a second blade, and a ferrule, where the first blade and the second blade have a stowed position and a deployed position. The first blade and the second blade may be pivotally attached to the ferrule. In addition, a resilient member may be within a ferrule cavity, where the resilient member applies a force to a blade locking member that engages the first blade and the second blade to retain the blades in a stowed position. When the blades are in a deployed position, the distance between a distal end of the first blade and an outer surface of the ferrule is greater than the distance between the distal end of the first blade and the outer surface of the ferrule is in the stowed position.

  • Patent number: 12203722
    Abstract: Shooting accuracy in archery may be greatly improved by increasing the precision and repeatability in which an archer establishes “anchor points,” which are contact points between the archer and a drawn bow and arrow at a moment of launch. One such contact point is the fingers of the hand gripping the bow grip. The invention provides an articulating torque spike as a bow grip aid which enables an archer to repeatably grip the same location of the bow grip and maintain consistent grip firmness from one shot to the next.

  • Publication number: 20060118577
    Abstract: An actuator cap for a container of product includes a main peripheral wall and a central discharge member axially movable relative to the main peripheral wall. The central discharge member is oriented to discharge product substantially axially. A pillar has a peripheral surface, and the pillar is deflectable relative to the main peripheral wall in a direction toward the central discharge member. Movement of the pillar is communicated to the central discharge member to displace the central discharge member when the pillar is deflected.

  • Publication number: 20050067439
    Abstract: Apparatus for placing contents of a first container in fluid communication with a delivery apparatus includes an actuating element carried by the delivery apparatus and a valve element carried by the first container. At least one of the actuating element and the valve element defines a flow path from the first container to the delivery apparatus when the actuating element and the valve element are engaged with one another. The actuating element is engageable with a circular cylindrical valve of a second container to prevent flow of contents of the second container into the delivery apparatus.
