A crossbow has a body, two bow assemblies, two pulley assemblies, and a string. The two bow assemblies are respectively disposed at two sides of the body. Each one of the two bow assemblies has a limb being capable of swinging relative to the body, a guiding unit obliquely extending toward the limb, a joint with two ends, and multiple Belleville springs mounted on and around the guiding unit and simultaneously abutting against the body and the joint. An angle is defined between the guiding unit and the body. The joint has an allowance for movement with the limb that allows a free end of the limb to be pulled toward the body. The two pulley assemblies are respectively mounted on two free ends of two limbs of the two bow assemblies. The string has two ends respectively fixed to the two pulley assemblies.

Crossbow with Belleville springs

A clamp includes two clamping units spaced apart from each other, each of which includes a supporting mount, a tightening block and a tightening bolt. The supporting mount has an inclined guide face which faces an object to be clamped, and two through holes through which two fasteners respectively extend to engage an installation plane. The tightening block has a sliding face abutting against the inclined guide face, and is fastened on the supporting mount by the tightening bolt. A threaded portion of the tightening bolt passes through a passage hole of the tightening block to engage an engagement hole of the supporting mount, so that the tightening block is compelled by the tightening bolt to move along the inclined guide face.
