Description

The The invention relates to an observation cockpit, in particular a hunting cockpit, with an observation platform according to the preamble of the claim 1.

State of the art

hunting pulpits or also general observatory for observing nature etc. or for hunting animals are mostly solid wood structures. As they are exposed to wind and weather throughout the year, they are subject to change this a relatively fast decay, what u. a. a speedy renewal and an injury or accident hazard for the hunter means.

However, in the meantime, mobile or mobile hunting or observation chests are already known (cf. DE 201 02 865 U1 ), which are preferably attached to the car to allow in different locations as needed for a few days or weeks or just a few hours to watch or hunt.

such mobile pulpits have an adjustment mechanism to the observation platform or pulpit / cabin from a flat or mostly lying transport position to bring in an elevated observation position and again to let down. These adjusting mechanisms have a drive, usually a hand-operated drive on.

The previous, mobile pulpits, however, are comparatively long, so these are not delivered to any desired location in a relative Inaccessible place in the field or forest by car can be.

For the cases where the observation pulpit for stays in one place for several days or weeks or outside be shut off from closed rooms, there is the Danger that this and especially the expensive or expensive drive by Vandalism or theft are damaged.

Purpose and advantages of the invention

task In contrast, according to the invention, it is an observation pulpit. especially hunting cockpit, with a viewing platform and at least one at least two wheels exhibiting chassis, wherein the Chassis at least one adjusting adjusting comprehensive unit for adjusting the observation platform from a transport position into an observation position and vice versa, to suggest which substantially avoids the disadvantages of the prior art or is inexpensive to implement and in particular relatively high safety requirements z. B. in relation to Vandalism is enough.

These Task is, starting from a cover or a method of the type mentioned in the introduction, by the characterizing features of Claims 1 and 9, respectively. By in the subclaims mentioned measures are advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention possible.

Accordingly is an observation cockpit according to the invention characterized in that at least one releasable holding device for releasably holding at least the adjusting drive on the chassis is provided.

With this measure is achieved, especially that of relative expensive or valuable drive or components of the adjustment can be dismantled, preferably at least during the observation phase or in the observation position and / or during the transport phase or in the transport position.

According to the Invention can thus drive and possibly other components the adjusting unit in an advantageous manner, in particular without tools, d. H. without the use of separate disassembly tool, disassembled be used to B. after the construction of the pulpit and / or for to be dismantled. This will be an impairment or damage to the (relatively expensive or valuable) Drive or further components completely prevented. For example, in the forest a theft or damage thereby be completely excluded by the hunter or observer dismantles the corresponding parts / components and takes along.

Also can damage the drive and if necessary other components during transport by car possibly be completely excluded by a traffic accident.

in principle It may be in the pulpit of the invention both to a trailer, in particular car trailer, for a tractor / passenger car or even a self-propelled Vehicle with its own drive motor for driving at least act of an impeller.

Preferably, in an adjustment phase of the platform, the holding device projects at least partially beyond the chassis or is arranged outside the cross section of the chassis. In the adjustment phase, the platform is moved between the transport position to the observation position and vice versa. With this measure it is achieved that in the transport position or in the transport phase, the holding device and the adjusting drive can be dismantled / removed, and this can not be affected.

moreover is the mobile pulpit according to the invention straight particularly compact in the transport phase or in the transport position formable. This allows the pulpit to be particularly inaccessible Positions brought or turned off. This is just for the use as a hunting cock of particular advantage.

Advantageously Erwiese is in a secured or by means of an advantageous fixing device fixed observation position of the platform the holding device dismantled. By preferably mechanical backup / support the platform will ensure that the platform too with dismantled drive a safe climb by the observer / hunter allows.

As a general rule the adjustment can be both manual or as well as automated or motor drive can be formed. To the Example is a pulley, an electric motor, an internal combustion engine, a hydraulic and / or pneumatic (Hubzylinder-) drive provided. Optionally, the energy of the tractor, in particular the car or an agricultural tractor or the like Drive motor and / or one or their so-called. Car battery, resorted In particular, the platform in the elevated observation position to adjust.

Preferably the adjustment is designed as a winch. Here can an advantageous hand-operated winch and / or it a winch of the tractor or the car can be used.

In a particular embodiment of the invention is at least one Fixing device for fixing the observation platform at least provided in the observation position and / or in the transport position. This will be safe for the observer / hunter Use and / or transport of the platform or pulpit allows. Not only during observation but also during during transportation, the platform / pulpit is securely and firmly fixed, so that no hazards can arise.

By an advantageous double use of the fixing device for fixing the platform / pulpit in the transport and observation position becomes a reduction of the design and mechanical effort and thus the cost reached.

Preferably is the fixing device as a support unit of the chassis educated. This is advantageously a mechanical particularly stable support of the platform or pulpit guaranteed, since the / a chassis generally pronounced stable and particularly large (fixing or support) forces can record.

advantageously, the fixing device has at least one lockable Securing unit for dismantling safety. With this fuse unit The fixing device can prevent theft or tampering Unauthorized be secured. This increases security for the observer especially in the cases at where the pulpit remains in one place for several days or weeks, and quite unauthorized persons at the site of the pulpit over can come.

moreover the observer already recognizes only optically that the pulpit is in a proper condition. The noiseless Recognizing the proper state of the invention Pulpit is especially important to hunters because of it the game is not disturbed or startled, in contrast to it, if the hunter shake at appropriate components to check their safety.

As a general rule it is advantageous, at least all adjustable or movable Parts or components, etc., for the construction or the Transportation will be needed and not during the Observation be dismantled by means of advantageous fuses / locks in the way to secure that the observer or hunter visually recognize this.

Often It will be of particular advantage if the platform is a fairing or cabin, d. H. a wrapper or wrapper, preferably with at least one window or an observation opening has to be the observer or hunter against wind and weather to protect or camouflage it.

In an advantageous variant of the invention, at least the Platform and / or the shell at least partially made of fiberglass reinforced plastic. As a result, the pulpit according to the Invention particularly light and stable at the same time. This is both for transport or maneuverability, in particular in a hand-operated, suspended state, as well as for adjusting or lifting the platform or pulpit of advantage.

in principle The mobile hunting can quite easily by its light weight be attached to a car and thus in each area get picked up. This makes it possible for the hunter, the Wild to follow in no time.

There the hunting cockpit, including cabin or shell, preferably made of weathering resistant glass fiber resin and / or wood-natural fiber composite, this is only about 90 kg light. This is in the dumped state or in the Transport position a low center of gravity on the chassis realized what the maneuverability and driving safety in traffic allows and increases. Also can by the small one Weight of the pulpit the lifting mechanism z. B. with a simple Winch be performed. The winch is in an advantageous manner plugged into the chassis for the purpose of raising and lowering preferably secured / fixed with a pin, bolt etc., and subsequently actuated.

To the achievement of the observation position disassembled or sets the Hunter returns the winch in his car. The pulpit will with the lockable fixing device, in particular Insertion bar, secured in erected as well as in lowered position. This increases the safety of freestanding pulpits in the Field. The manipulation of the pulpit and the risk of injury of Curious people can be so significantly reduced. The hunter can instantly recognize with a look when reaching his pulpit (noiselessly) whether his pulpit has been manipulated or not. Likewise, a ladder for the platform is preferred secured with a padlock.

The non-rotatable hunting cock and weather-resistant fleece curtains for the windows or observation opening the rest for the safety or camouflage of the hunter at.

One massive grid on which no ice formation is possible can advantageously in addition with a railing be equipped. So the hunter with his hunting equipment comfortably and safely enter the pulpit.

embodiment

One Embodiment of the invention is in the drawing and will become more apparent from the figures below explained.

in the Individual shows:

1 a schematic representation in a transport position with adjustment according to the invention and

2 a schematic representation in a secure observation position without adjustment according to the invention.

In the 1 illustrated, schematic dismantling position substantially corresponds to a transport position of a mobile or mobile observation or Jagdkanzel. This includes an actual pulpit 1 a platform 2 ie the bottom of the pulpit 1 , a grate 4 and a shell or cabin 3 with roof and observation window 5 ,

In 1 is traveling an adjustment mechanism or an adjustment drive 14 with a winch 15 mounted, so that 1 shows a build-up phase. The winch 15 is on a handrail 16 attached. After transport, the holding rod is inserted into an advantageous (square) tube or the like and by means of a bolt, pin 17 or the like secured. Subsequently, a rope becomes 18 at an eyelet 19 the pulpit 1 hooked.

On the chassis 9 are also four supports 10 provided to the pulpit 11 in the observation position according to 2 on the field or the earth support.

The drained columns 10 enable a good state of the hunting cock and relieve wheels 20 of the trailer 8th , After removing the fixation 11 can the pulpit 11 be raised. This is the winch 15 , in this case by means of a hand crank 21 actuated. In general, other types of drives can be used for lifting, eg. B. an electric motor, which receives its energy from the tractor or car, not shown, or a winch of the tractor or the car, etc.

By the operation of the winch 15 becomes the pulpit 1 around an axis 22 twisted so that it gradually rises up and into the observation position according to 22 comes. Now can fixation in an advantageous manner 11 or support rod 11 like that with the frame 13 interact that pulpit 1 safely resting on it. Completing the prop 11 by means of a bolt, splint or the like and a safety lock prevents tampering. This also ensures that the observer or hunter can see only visually the security or non-manipulation, ie noiseless, which is of great advantage to hunters, if they sit again after days / weeks break or absence or want to watch / hunt.

As in 2 becomes clear, the adjustment can 14 or the winch 15 with handrail 16 removed after the construction again, z. B. stowed in a car.

A grate 4 the pulpit 1 has a railing 6 in the observation position according to 2 a safe passage of the pulpit 1 allows and at the same time helpful when climbing a ladder 7 is. The ladder 7 can during transport at the trailer 8th , in particular on the chassis 9 or chassis are fixed. Also can be transported on the chassis more helpful components of the observation cockpit, such. B. Ground anchor for the columns 10 , Crossbars or long bars for extra lateral protection to increase the stability, a lockable, closed container / box for stowing small items or useful utensils, etc.

In the transport position is the pulpit 1 on a version 12 stored, which preferably has a conical cross section. For fixing in this position is additionally a mechanical fixation or support unit 11 on the opposite side of the version 12 ie above the pulpit 1 available. This is preferably a rod or the like, which transversely to a support frame 13 is arranged and to prevent shaking or shaking the pulpit while driving. Preferably, foam elements or the like are provided around the pulpit 1 to dampen or prevent damage or scratches.

Furthermore, in the observation position, a mechanical fixation or support unit 11 on the pulpit 1 is supported.

The illustrated observation pulpit consists essentially of a stable chassis 9 or metal frame which is mounted on an axle with drawbar. This serves to accommodate a fully assembled glass fiber reinforced pulpit 1 , This is extremely light and absolutely weathering and UV resistant. This allows a hunter all alone the mobile hunting cockpit 1 over public roads / dirt roads bring them into impassable hard to reach places and build up within about three minutes.

This pulpit 1 lies in the frame during transport 9 and thus has no high priority. This allows the trailer with z. B. 80 km / h in traffic to StVZO move easily. This allows the hunters to follow the game, which is especially beneficial in boar hunting. The hunters need by this mobile hunting cock much less stationary pulpits, which are mostly made of wood and are endangered by the rotting or dangerous. By contrast, GfK is resistant to wind, weather, water and acid.

Due to the low weight of the pulpit can be by means of a plug-in winch 15 easily over a pivot point 22 wind up. A fuse bar 11 will be under the pulpit 1 pushed through and locked with two bolts.

Previously, the columns were 10 on the steel frame 9 scorched to the ground and the pulpit 1 by means of these rotary supports 10 aligned. After that, there will be the ladder 7 hung and possibly lateral Abstrebungsstangen (not shown) attached or screwed. The whole can be set up in about three minutes by one person.

If possible, all security parts can be secured with padlocks, so that the hunter can recognize any manipulation as soon as approaching. Lights of the car trailer 8th can z. B. be unscrewed by thumbscrews and stowed in a car. It's the same with the winch 15 , Anything that is not out in the forest can not be stolen or damaged.

the pulpit 1 itself is still advantageously equipped with weather-resistant fleece curtains or the like, which can be silently opened and closed.

The pulpit was built 1 a parapet height / shooting surface of about 3 m and a total height of about 4 m.

Accordingly, the mobile hunting cockpit consists of a combination of wood and glass fiber reinforced plastic / resin. The wood panels are laminated waterproof. This provides a virtually unlimited weathering resistance. the pulpit 1 is absolutely silent and extremely light. The mobile hunting cockpit offers a draft-free, low-noise and pleasant fit with maximum durability and mobility.
