    Abstract

    An archery peep sight cover envelops an archery peep sight to keep the archery peep sight clean of debris and prevents misalignment of the peep sight during transportation or storage for an archery bow. The archery peep sight cover includes a sight-cover body, a first string-attachment extrusion, a second string-attachment extrusion, and a string-receiving slit. The sight-cover body envelops the peep sight. The first string-attachment extrusion and the second string-attachment extrusion secure the archery peep sight cover to a bow string of the archery bow. The string-receiving slit receives the bowstring and the attached peep sight such that the peep sight is positioned within the sight-cover body and the bowstring frictionally engages the first string-attachment extrusion and the second string-attachment extrusion.

    DETAIL DESCRIPTIONS OF THE INVENTION

    [0011] All illustrations of the drawings are for the purpose of describing selected versions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

    [0012] The present invention is an archery peep sight cover. The present invention attaches to a string for an archery bow to cover a peep sight, in order to protect the peep sight from damage, debris obfuscation, or misalignment from unintended external interactions. The present invention is preferred to be made from silicone, thermoplastic, or similar materials to provide a durable yet flexible cover for a peep sight.

    [0013] In accordance to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. 6, the present invention comprises a sight-cover body 1, a first string-attachment extrusion 2, a second string-attachment extrusion 3 and a string-receiving slit 4. The sight-cover body 1 envelops the peep sight on a bow string, protecting the peep sight from unintended external interference. The first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3 secure the present invention onto the bow string, allowing the present invention to be secured about the peep sight. The first string-attachment extrusion 2 is adjacently connected to the sight-cover body 1. Similarly, the second string-attachment extrusion 3 is adjacently connected to the sight-cover body 1. The first string-attachment extrusion 2 is oppositely positioned to the second string-attachment extrusion 3, about the sight-cover body 1, such that the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and second string-attachment extrusion 3, attach above and below the peep sight along the bowstring. The string-receiving slit 4 allows the present invention to engage the bow string. The string-receiving slit 4 laterally traverses through the sight-cover body 1, the first string-attachment extrusion 2, and the second string-attachment extrusion 3, in order to position the present invention along the bow string efficiently. By depressing the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3 together, the string-receiving slit 4 separates. The separation allows the peep sight to be positioned within the sight-cover body 1, and the bowstring to be positioned within the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3. In accordance to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the present invention comprises a first string-retaining aperture 5 and a second string-retaining aperture 6, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 to FIG. 6. The first string-retaining aperture 5 and the second string-retaining aperture 6 allow the bow string to be positioned within the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and second string-attachment extrusion 3, in order to secure the present invention to the bow string. The first string-retaining aperture 5 traverses through the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the sight-cover body 1. Similarly, the second string-retaining aperture 6 traverses through the second string-attachment extrusion 3 and the sight-cover body 1. The first string-retaining aperture 5 is collinear to the second string-retaining aperture 6, such that the present invention does not contort the bow string. In accordance to FIG. 4 the string-receiving slit 4 traverses into the first string-retaining aperture 5 to allow the bow string to be positioned within the first string-retaining aperture 5. Similarly, the string-receiving slit 4 traverses into the second string-retaining aperture 6 to allow the bow string to be positioned within the second string-retaining aperture 6, shown in FIG. 5. The bow string is frictionally engaged with the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3 through the first string-retaining aperture 5 and the second string-retaining aperture 6 respectively.

    [0014] Further in accordance to the preferred embodiment, the first string-retaining aperture 5 is oriented normal to the first string-attachment extrusion 2, detailed in FIG. 4. Similarly, the second string-retaining aperture 6 is oriented normal to the second string-attachment extrusion 3, shown in FIG. 5. This configuration prevents the present invention from contorting the bow string and prevents stress to the present invention.

    [0015] The sight-cover body 1 is flexible, as the present invention is preferred to be made from silicon, thermoplastic, or similar materials. As the user compresses the first string-attachment extrusion 2 towards the second string-attachment extrusion 3, the sight-cover body 1 deforms to enlarge the string-receiving slit 4. With the string-receiving slit 4 enlarged, the user is able to place the sight-cover body 1 over the peep sight. The user engages the bow string with the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3. The user positions the peep sight between the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3 and positions the bow sting within the first string-retaining aperture 5 and second string-retaining aperture 6. When the user then releases the present invention, the string-receiving slit 4 contracts, the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3 extend away from each other, and the bow string is secured within the first string-attachment extrusion 2 and the second string-attachment extrusion 3.

    [0016] Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
