Embodiments include a riser assembly for a bow. The riser assembly can include a first non-planar riser plate; and a second non-planar riser plate that is coupled to the first non-planar riser plate with one or more connectors. The first non-planar riser plate and the second non-planar riser plate define a gap there between. A width of the gap extending from the first non-planar riser plate to the second non-planar riser plate. The width of the gap varies in size such that the width of the gap at a central location of the gap is larger or smaller than the width of the gap at a location distal to the central location. Other embodiments are also included herein.

A deformable archery toy may include an annular rotating arm, a rotating shaft sleeve, an unfolding arm body A, an unfolding arm body B and a connecting arm body, wherein one end of the annular rotating arm is rotatably connected with the grip connecting arm, one end of the grip connecting arm far away from the annular rotating arm is fixedly connected with the unfolding arm A, one end of the unfolding arm A far away from the grip connecting arm is clamped with the string connecting sleeve block A, one end of the annular rotating arm far away from the grip connecting arm is fixedly connected with the unfolding arm B. In this invention, the whole archery toy could be effectively folded, the archery toy could be changed from the archery bow to the slingshot, so that the dual-purpose function could be effectively achieved.

An archery bow can include a riser, a first limb coupled to the riser, a second limb coupled to the riser, a string extending between the first and second limb, and Non-Newtonian material (NN material). The NN material can be incorporated into at least one of the riser, the first limb, the second limb, the string, or another component of the archery bow. The NN material can have a material property (e.g., viscosity) which varies relative to a stress or force applied to the NN material. One or more portions of NN material can additionally, or alternatively, be incorporated into a projectile (e.g., an arrow) for an archery bow, an archery target or other archery equipment.

An archery bow riser for an archery bow is disclosed. The archery riser, in an embodiment, includes a first section, a frame connected to the first section and a second section connected to the frame. The frame defines a cavity or inner space, and the frame is configured to reduce deformation of at least part of the archery bow riser.

The limb for an arrow throwing device, e.g. a bow or a crossbow, includes an upper portion, a lower portion, and an intermediate portion arranged between the upper portion and the lower portion. The upper portion and the lower portion are resilient. The intermediate portion is made non-resilient, capable of moving freely and not being deformed in conditions of load exerted on the limb during use thereof. The limb and the bow or the crossbow, featuring the limbs, can ensure a high speed of the arrow and a large stroke at small dimensions of the limb.

The invention relates to an archery system that launches an arrow from a position that is perpendicular to a direction of flight for the arrow. After release, the arrow rotates to a position that is parallel to the direction of flight to the target.

A crossbow includes a stock having a first side and a second side. The stock defines a projectile flight path. The crossbow includes a scope rail mount. The scope rail mount includes a first support and a second support. The first support is coupled with the first side of the stock. The second support coupled with the second side of the stock. The scope rail mount configured to straddle the projectile flight path.

An improved archery bow limb comprising an elongated body made at least in part of fiber reinforced polymer composite material. A portion of the fiber reinforced polymer composite extends into the tip end and forms a loop therein before returning into the body. An interior of the tip end loop includes an aperture sized to accommodate a string cam axle or other string mounting component.

A hiking staff with bow attachment for improving balance to avoid injury by ensuring smooth and efficient energy transfer throughout a complete stride forward. The bow attachment comprises a curved member for maintaining continuous high surface area impacts with ground surfaces and contact points for penetrating ground surfaces to help stabilize the curved member during use. A connecting portion removably joins the bow attachment to the lower section of the staff portion. The hiking staff may be adapted for a specialized outdoor use such as rock climbing or mountaineering and indoor versions are useful as walking assistants for the handicapped, injured or elderly. Lastly, tool attachments secure to either end of the staff portion and transform the hiking staff into a multi-tool system.
