Abstract:
A tensioning device for a crossbow or the like, such as a harpoon, a line throwing device, a toy crossbow, a pistol crossbow, a spear thrower, or a ballista, includes a shaft and limbs connected thereto. A connection element designed to connect to the shaft of the crossbow has securing devices for rotatably or pivotally securing the limbs. The connection element is connected to at least one drive device which can be connected to the limbs and by which the limbs can be converted rotatably or pivotally from a first position, in which the limbs form a first angle together with the shaft, into a second position, in which the limbs form a second angle together with the shaft, wherein the second angle is larger than the first angle, in order to convert the limbs and a bowstring connected thereto from a non-tensioned position into a tensioned shoot-ready position.

Claim (Index 12):
The tensioning device ( 1 ) according to claim  1 , wherein the drive device ( 7 ) is connected to a safety element ( 15 ) and this is connected to a safety device ( 15 b ), which safety device ( 15 b ) is designed both to mechanically fix or to release the bowstring ( 8 ) in/from a triggering device ( 19 ) connected to the shaft ( 3 ) as well as to activate or deactivate the drive device ( 7 ), wherein the safety device ( 15 b ), in a deactivation position (S 1 ) of the safety element ( 15 ), deactivates the drive device ( 7 ), in a safety position (S 2 ) of the safety element ( 15 ) activates the drive device ( 7 ) and fixes the bowstring ( 8 ), and in a release position (S 3 ) of the safety element ( 15 ), activates the drive device ( 7 ) and releases the bowstring ( 8 ) for firing a shot.
