Abstract

An archery bow sight can include a housing, one or more pins, and a level indicator. In some examples, the housing has a first section that defines a radius of curvature. A second section of the housing can be disposed closer to a center of the curvature than the first section. In some examples, a first section of the housing can define a projected shape and a minimum distance between a second section and the center of the projected shape can be less than a radius of the projected shape. In some examples, the housing can include first and second lateral sections having respective distal ends that are displaced from one another.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A housing for an archery bow sight, comprising:
 a first section; and   a second section, the second section comprising:
 a base; and 
 a member extending from the first section to the base, the base and the member defining an angle greater than 90 degrees, the base and the member arranged to dispose the base adjacent a projectile path. 
   
     
     
         2 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the member is a first member; and   the second section further comprises a second member.   
     
     
         3 . The housing of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the angle is a first angle; and   the base and the second member define a second angle greater than 90 degrees.   
     
     
         4 . The housing of  claim 3 , wherein the first angle and the second angle are equivalent. 
     
     
         5 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein the first section has a radius of curvature about a center. 
     
     
         6 . The housing of  claim 5 , wherein the base is disposed nearer to the center than the member such that the member is disposed further from the center than the base is disposed from the center. 
     
     
         7 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein the angle is greater than 180 degrees. 
     
     
         8 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein the first section and the second section are integrally formed. 
     
     
         9 . A sight for an archery bow, comprising:
 a housing having a first section and a second section, the first section defining a curvature about a radius and a center, the center defining an axis intersecting the center, wherein the radius is at least 1.5 times greater than a minimum distance from the second section to the axis;   a first pin disposed within the housing;   a second pin disposed within the housing, the second pin vertically offset from the first pin; and   a level indicator coupled to the housing.   
     
     
         10 . The sight of  claim 9 , wherein the second pin is vertically offset below the first pin. 
     
     
         11 . The sight of  claim 9 , wherein a portion of the second section extends toward the axis. 
     
     
         12 . The sight of  claim 9 , wherein:
 the first pin is coupled to a pin support extending from the second section; and   the second pin is coupled to the pin support.   
     
     
         13 . The sight of  claim 9 , wherein the radius is at least 2 times greater than the minimum distance from the second section to the axis. 
     
     
         14 . The sight of  claim 9 , further comprising a third pin disposed within the housing and vertically offset from the first pin, wherein the first pin is disposed between the second pin and the third pin. 
     
     
         15 . The sight of  claim 9 , wherein the first pin is disposed at the center. 
     
     
         16 . A sight for an archery bow, comprising:
 a housing comprising:
 a first lateral section having a first distal end; and 
 a second lateral section having a second distal end, the first distal end being displaced a distance from the second distal end; 
   a pin disposed within the housing; and   a level indicator coupled to the housing, wherein the housing is configured to be translated to dispose a projectile between the first distal end and the second distal end.   
     
     
         17 . The sight of  claim 16 , wherein the housing further comprises an intermediate section coupled between a first proximal end of the first lateral section and a second proximal end of the second lateral section. 
     
     
         18 . The sight of  claim 17 , wherein the pin is coupled to the intermediate section via a pin support. 
     
     
         19 . The sight of  claim 17 , wherein the level indicator is coupled to the intermediate section. 
     
     
         20 . The sight of  claim 16 , wherein the pin is coupled to the first section via a pin support.
