Patent Images
1. A crossbow with a vibration-damping device, the crossbow comprising:
- a stock assembly having a front end;
a bow assembly attached to the front end of the stock assembly and havinga mating block havingtwo sides;
a rear face;
a bushing recess defined in the rear face; and
two cavities defined in the rear face within the bushing recess;
a bow composed of two resilient arms, each resilient arm havinga proximal end attached to and extending out from one of the two sides of the mating block; and
a distal end;
a bowstring connected between the two distal ends of the resilient arm; and
a bushing clamped between the stock assembly and the bow assembly; and
at least one resilient element serving as a vibration-damping device and mounted inside the cavities inside the mating block between the bushing and the bow assembly.

Abstract
A crossbow with a vibration-damping device has a stock assembly, a bow assembly, a bushing and at least one resilient element. The stock assembly has a front end. The bow assembly is attached to the front end of the stock assembly. The bushing is clamped between the stock assembly and the bow assembly. The at least one resilient element serves as a vibration-damping device and is clamped between the bushing and the bow assembly. By adding the resilient element, vibrations of the bow assembly are greatly reduced, and the bushing can be selectively made of rigid material to keep the structure of the crossbow sturdy.
