Recurve Lamination Invention
Most of the composite bows are recurve bows when not stringed they curve opposite of the archer that have wooden core with horn on the belly facing the archer.
Recurve lamination invention. The razorback recurve bow is made of walnut burmese and beechwood laminated riser with maple fiberglass limbs. Each limb has a tip which interconnects the limbs by means of a drawstring and tension cables are connected such that one cable extends from a butt end of one limb remote. In archery the shape of the bow is usually taken to be the view from the side. Composite bow is a type of traditional bow made of horn wood and sinew which are laminated together and is similar to the laminated bow which is made only of layers of wood.
It is the product of the complex relationship of material stresses designed by a bowyer this shape viewing the limbs is designed to take into account the construction materials the performance required and the intended use of the bow. These materials account for the lightness in terms of its weight. Self bows composite bows and laminated bows using the recurve form are still made and used by bowyers amateurs and professional archers. The two laminated limbs are joined to the handle by a transition member which absorbs the difference in the modulus of elasticity between the relative rigid handle and the flexible limb portions.
An archery recurve bow having a handle and riser section which is substantially rigid the risers supporting upper and lower limbs pivotally mounted thereto by means of guide plates which sandwich the limbs therebetween.
