Abstract:
A crossbow in some embodiments may include two power cables and two power cable wheels. Each power cable may extend from a bowstring wheel, to a power cable wheel and then back to the bowstring wheel. A crossbow in some other embodiments may include four power cables and two power cable wheels. Each power cable may extend from a bowstring wheel, to a power cable wheel and then to a portion of the crossbow that does not move relative to the main beam.

Claim (Index 11):
A crossbow comprising:\n a main beam that extends longitudinally; a bow assembly supported to the main beam and comprising: a bowstring; first and second bow limbs; first and second bowstring wheels supported to the first and second bow limbs, respectively; first, second, third and fourth power cables; and first and second power cable wheels; and a trigger mechanism supported to the main beam and operable to: hold the bowstring in a cocked position; and release the bowstring from the cocked position to fire the crossbow; wherein: (1) the first bowstring wheel is rotatable with respect to the main beam about a first rotational axis and comprises: a bowstring reception surface; a first power cable reception surface; and a second power cable reception surface; (2) the second bowstring wheel is rotatable with respect to the main beam about a second rotational axis and comprises: a bowstring reception surface; a first power cable reception surface; and a second power cable reception surface; (3) the first power cable wheel comprises first and second power cable reception surfaces and is rotatable with respect to the main beam about a third rotational axis; (4) the second power cable wheel comprises first and second power cable reception surfaces and is rotatable with respect to the main beam about a fourth rotational axis; (5) the bowstring has a first end received on the bowstring reception surface of the first bowstring wheel and a second end received on the bowstring reception surface of the second bowstring wheel; (6) the first power cable has: a first end received on the first power cable reception surface of the first bowstring wheel; a mid-portion received on the first power cable reception surface of the first power cable wheel; and a second end attached to a portion of the crossbow that does not move relative to the main beam when the crossbow is cocked and when the crossbow is fired; (7) the second power cable has: a first end received on the second power cable reception surface of the first bowstring wheel; a mid-portion received on the second power cable reception surface of the first power cable wheel; and a second end attached to a portion of the crossbow that does not move relative to the main beam when the crossbow is cocked and when the crossbow is fired; (8) the third power cable has: a first end received on the first power cable reception surface of the second bowstring wheel; a mid-portion received on the first power cable reception surface of the second power cable wheel; and a second end attached to a portion of the crossbow that does not move relative to the main beam when the crossbow is cocked and when the crossbow is fired; (9) the fourth power cable has: a first end received on the second power cable reception surface of the second bowstring wheel; a mid-portion received on the second power cable reception surface of the second power cable wheel; and a second end attached to a portion of the crossbow that does not move relative to the main beam when the crossbow is cocked and when the crossbow is fired; and (10) the bowstring is not physically coupled to any of the first, second, third and fourth power cables.
