Abstract:
Provided is a crossbow comprising an elongated barrel having a front barrel end and a rear barrel end opposite the front barrel end, and a first barrel side and a second barrel side opposite the first barrel side; a bow engaged with the elongated barrel; an elongated bowstring having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a first bowstring guide engaged with the first barrel side, the first bowstring guide being adapted to push the bowstring toward the second barrel side while the bowstring is moved between a cocked position and an uncocked position; and a second bowstring guide engaged with the second barrel side, the second bowstring guide being adapted to push the bowstring toward the first barrel side while the bowstring is moved between a cocked position and an uncocked position.

Claim (Index 20):
A crossbow comprising\n an elongated barrel having\n a front barrel end and a rear barrel end opposite the front barrel end, and \n a first barrel side and a second barrel side opposite the first barrel side; \n a trigger engaged with the elongated barrel; a bow engaged with the elongated barrel, the bow having\n a riser having\n a first riser side engaged with the first barrel side and \n a second riser side opposite the first riser side, the second riser side engaged with the second barrel side; \n \n a first limb set\n engaged to the first riser side, and \n defining a first limb axis; \n \n a second limb set,\n engaged to the second riser side, and \n defining a second limb axis parallel to the first limb axis; \n \n a first cam having\n a first cam axis, \n a first cam plane normal to the first cam axis, \n a first cam plate having\n a first top surface, \n a first bottom surface opposite the first top surface, and \n a first perimeter surface extending between the first top surface and the first bottom surface, the first perimeter surface defining a first concave bowstring channel extending around the first cam axis along a first plane curve within the first cam plane, the first plane curve varying in distance from the first cam axis; \n \n a first top power cord channel extending from the first top surface along a first top helical path having a first top helix axis coincident with the first cam axis, and \n a first bottom power cord channel extending from the first bottom surface along a first bottom helical path having a first bottom helix axis coincident with the first cam axis; \n \n a second cam having\n a second cam axis, \n a second cam plane normal to the second cam axis, \n a second cam plate having\n a second top surface, \n a second bottom surface opposite the second top surface, and \n a second perimeter surface extending between the second top surface and the second bottom surface, the second perimeter surface defining a second concave bowstring channel extending around the second cam axis along a second plane curve within the second cam plane, the second plane curve varying in distance from the second cam axis; \n \n a second top power cord channel extending from the second top surface along a second top helical path having a second top helix axis coincident with the second cam axis, and \n a second bottom power cord channel extending from the second bottom surface along a second bottom helical path having a second bottom helix axis coincident with second cam axis; \n \n the first cam being engaged to the first limb set such that\n the first cam is rotatable about the first limb axis, and \n the first cam axis coincides with the first limb axis; \n \n the second cam being engaged to the second limb set such that\n the second cam is rotatable about the second limb axis, and \n the second cam axis coincides with the second limb axis; \n \n an elongated bowstring having a first end, a second end opposite the first end\n the first end being operatively engaged with the first cam, \n the second end being operatively engaged with the second cam, \n the bowstring being movable between a cocked position and an uncocked position. \n a first bowstring guide engaged with the first barrel side, the first bowstring guide being adapted to push the bowstring toward the second barrel side while the bowstring is between a cocked position and an uncocked position; a second bowstring guide engaged with the second barrel side, the second bowstring guide being adapted to push the bowstring toward the first barrel side while the bowstring is between a cocked position and an uncocked position; wherein the first bowstring guide is a pulley or cam rotatable about a first bowstring guide axis parallel to the first limb axis; and wherein the second bowstring guide is a pulley or cam rotatable about a second bowstring guide axis parallel to the second limb axis.
