Abstract:
Crossbow bowstring positioning systems are provided. In one aspect of the invention a crossbow bowstring positioning system has a crank housing supporting an axle and positioning a first connector at a front facing surface of the crank housing, a length of rope connected between two separated points on the axle; a bowstring connector joined to the length of rope and connectable to a bowstring of the crossbow, a mounting having a buffer tube mount mountable to a buffer tube of a crossbow; and a crank operable to rotate the axle to control an extent to which the rope is wound onto the axle and a position of the bowstring connector relative to the axle. The crank housing and mounting can be readily assembled in a small space and an efficient manner while providing paths through which a force experienced by the axle during use can be resisted.

Claim (Index 1):
A crossbow bowstring positioning system comprising:\n a crank housing supporting an axle and positioning a first connector at a front facing surface of the crank housing; a length of rope connected between two separated points on the axle; a bowstring connector joined to the length of rope and connectable to a bowstring of the crossbow; a mounting having a buffer tube mount mountable to a buffer tube of a crossbow; a crank operable to rotate the axle to control an extent to which the rope is wound onto the axle and a position of the bowstring connector relative to the axle; wherein the housing and the mounting are arranged for assembly at a first distance from the mounting tube over an engagement length and wherein the assembly of the housing and the mounting allows contact between the housing and the mounting apart from the engagement length such that a first portion of a force applied by a bowstring against the bowstring connector during positioning of the bowstring connector is resisted through the engagement length and a second portion of the force is resisted through the contact.
