Patent ID: 8662062

Claim:
A compound archery bow that includes: a bow handle having projecting limbs, a first pulley mounted on a first of said limbs for rotation around a first axis, a second pulley mounted on a second of said limbs for rotation around a second axis, bow cable means including a bowstring cable extending from a bowstring anchor through a bowstring let-out groove on said first pulley and then toward said second pulley, a first power cable extending from a first power cable anchor through power cable let-out means on said first pulley toward said second pulley, and a second power cable extending from said second pulley through power cable take-up means to a second power cable anchor on said first pulley, such that draw of said bowstring cable away from said handle lets out bowstring cable from said bowstring let-out groove, rotates said first pulley around said first axis, lets out said first power cable from said power cable let-out means on said first pulley and takes up said second power cable onto said power cable take-up means on said first pulley, and a power cable stop disposed on said first pulley and extending in opposite directions away from opposite sides of said first pulley at a position radially inward of the radially outer periphery of the first pulley, to be engaged by said first power cable adjacent to said let-out means to inhibit further rotation of said first pulley and draw of said bowstring cable, and thereby define a fully drawn position of said bowstring cable and said first pulley.
