Arrow quiver assembly and frame

Abstract

A frame is provided, and a quiver assembly is attached to the frame. The frame, preferably made from aluminum, is manufactured by using an axis of extrusion that is perpendicular to the primary axis of the quiver assembly. A top portion of the quiver assembly provides blade covers with foam inserts to store, for example, expandable broadheads. The blade covers are non-circular in shape, so that broadheads can be rotated approximately ninety degrees to a secure position. The quiver also utilizes a set screw that allows a the hunter to adjust the camming force required for loading and unloading the quiver from the bow. The quiver assembly utilizes rubber posts that allow for a quiet operation, as well as a secure means of locking the quiver assembly to a bow.

1 . A method for providing an extruded quiver frame, comprising:
 providing a die having a shape corresponding to a shape of the quiver frame;   performing an extrusion operation such that the axis of extrusion is substantially perpendicular to the primary axis of the quiver frame, wherein a length of quiver frame material emerges from the die; and   cutting the quiver frame material to form at least two quiver frames from the length of quiver frame material.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the quiver frame comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of aluminum, magnesium, zinc and copper. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising assembling a quiver assembly comprising:
 a single quiver frame;   blade covers with foam inserts to store expandable broadheads; and   a set screw that allows adjustment of the camming force required to load and unload the quiver assembly from a bow.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the blade covers comprise a non-round shape. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the non-round shape comprises an oval shape. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 3 , further comprising rotating a broadhead approximately ninety degrees, within a blade cover, to a secure position.
