Abstract
A crossbow with an inertia brake cocking device preferably utilizes a one-way bearing to control rotation of the drive unit used to wind (take-up) an elongated connecting device. Functional properties of an inertia brake mechanism (IBM) are well known. In its simplest form, an IBM has at least a first plate floating within a cavity, the first plate having a protrusion along an edge, and the cavity having recesses radially about its perimeter. Under controlled rotation in either direction, the IBM allows for the unrestricted rotation of the mechanism to which it is coupled. If the IBM senses a rapid acceleration of the spool, inertia moves the plate to engage a recess in the perimeter of the cavity, stopping uncontrolled rotation of the spool.
