Abstract:
Provided is a mid-limb cam crossbow system comprising a beam; a bow assembly having a first bow limb of length L1 and second bow limb of length L2; a first cam engaged with the first bow limb at a point between (0.15)L1 and (0.75)L1 from the limb end; a second cam engaged with the second bow limb at a point between (0.15)L2 and (0.75)L2 from the limb end; a first power string engaged with the first cam and a region on the second bow limb greater than (0.75)L2 from the limb end; a second power string engaged with the second cam and a region on the first bow limb greater than (0.75)L1 from the limb end; and a bowstring engaged between the first cam and the second cam. The bow assembly may be configured in an uncocked configuration or a cocked configuration. L1 and L2 are between 15 centimeters and 65 centimeters.

Claim (Index 19):
A mid-limb cam crossbow system comprising:\n an elongated main beam having a first beam end, and a second beam end opposite the first beam end; a bow assembly mounted to the main beam at the first beam end, the bow assembly having a pair of bow limbs defining opposite ends of said bow assembly, the pair of bow limbs being a first bow limb and a second bow limb, wherein\n the first bow limb has a proximate end and a distal end offset from the proximate end by a length L1, and \n the second bow limb has a proximate end and a distal end offset from the proximate end by a length L2; \n a first cam rotatably engaged with the first bow limb at a first pivot point offset from the proximate end of the first bow limb by a length between (0.45)L1 and (0.55)L1; a second cam rotatably engaged with the second bow limb at a second pivot point offset from the proximate end of the second bow limb by a length between (0.45)L2 and (0.55)L2; a first power string operatively engaged between the first cam and a region on the second bow limb offset from the proximate end of the second bow limb by a length of greater than (0.90)L2; a second power string operatively engaged between the second cam and a region on the first bow limb offset from the proximate end of the first bow limb by a length of greater than (0.90)L1; a bowstring adapted to propel an arrow, the bowstring operatively engaged between the first cam and the second cam; and wherein the bow assembly may be configured in\n a) an uncocked configuration in which,\n i) the bow assembly stores some residual energy, \n ii) the bowstring is located at a uncocked bowstring position along the main beam; or \n \n b) a cocked configuration in which,\n i) the bow assembly stores more than 135 foot pounds of energy greater than the residual energy, \n ii) the bowstring is located at a cocked bowstring position along the main beam which is more than 40 centimeters from the uncocked bowstring position; and \n \n wherein\n L1 is between 32 centimeters and 38 centimeters, and \n L2 is between 32 centimeters and 38 centimeter; \n wherein a second angle is defined by\n a vector along the uncocked bowstring position, and \n a vector along the first power string in the uncocked configuration; and \n wherein the second angle is between 15 and 30 degrees.
