Patent attributes
A tension amplifying assembly and method are disclosed herein. The tension amplifying assembly, in an embodiment, includes a plurality of connection points or connection members configured to be coupled to a structure of an archery bow. Each of the connection members is configured to movably couple one of the limbs to the structure so that each of the limbs is movable from a first position relative to the structure to a second position relative to the structure. The tension amplifying assembly also includes a plurality of piston-cylinder assemblies, at least one reservoir tillable with a fluid, at least one valve, and a switch device configured to be operatively coupled to the at least one valve. The connection members are configured to cause the limbs to move from the first positions to the second positions in response to an operation of the switch device, and the movements cause the tension in the bow string to increase.
