Abstract
A crossbow includes a draw string configured to move between a released position and a drawn position, a trigger box configured to selectively retain the draw string, and a cocking mechanism configured to move the trigger box and move the draw string between the released position and the drawn position. The cocking mechanism includes a tether a cord coupled with a front end of the trigger box, and a spool including a first recess configured to receive the tether and a second recess configured to receive the cord, the spool configured to rotate in a first direction to unwind the tether therefrom and wind the cord thereon and a second direction to wind the tether thereon and unwind the cord therefrom. During operation of the crossbow, as the spool rotates in the first direction, the cord pulls the trigger box in a direction towards a front end of the crossbow.
