Definitions
- the present invention concerns an arrangement for the carrying and transport of an object according to the introduction of claim 1.
- a number of methods for carrying a weapon when transporting weapons of the type of a rifle during, for example, hunting without holding it in the hands are known.
- One common method is the fixing of a strap, often provided with a broader part for the shoulder, by its ends to the rifle in association with the ends of the rifle. The rifle is then transported through the shoulder part of the strap being suspended over one shoulder of the user.
- One disadvantage of this method is that the rifle is suspended relatively loosely and can easily slip down from the shoulder, particularly when travelling by skis, since both hands are used to move the poles.
- the rifle furthermore can start to impact the back or side of the user.
- the rifle can also be placed obliquely across the back with this type of strap by passing the strap over the head such that the strap lies over the user's chest, parallel with the rifle.
- This is that blood supply can be cut off due to the contact of the strap with the neck, leading to loss of feeling, and that the method prevents the simultaneous use of a rucksack.
- a further method of carrying a weapon with this type of strap is to place the strap against the neck and in this way suspend the rifle on the front side of the body. This allows the simultaneous use of a rucksack, but the rifle swings easily and loads on the neck are high, particularly during the use of heavier weapons.
- Another type of carrier has started to be used, in order to avoid these problems.
- This type of arrangement comprises two straps intended to be placed on the two shoulders of the user, using the same principle as that used by a rucksack.
- the disadvantages of this arrangement are not only that simultaneous use of a rucksack becomes impossible, but also that the weapon hangs directly out from the body and starts to tip from one side to the other. This can be experienced as disturbing and uncomfortable.
- a further disadvantage is that it is difficult to make the weapon ready for use rapidly.
- a game carrier When an animal, for example a deer, has been felled, the animal must be carried to a place where, for example, transport with a vehicle can take place, or carried to a collection point.
- a separate arrangement in the form of a game carrier is often used for this purpose.
- This carrier often comprises a type of strap with one or several loops that are attached to the paws or hooves of the animal. The disadvantage of this is that the game carrier takes up place unnecessarily when it is not in use.
- One aim of the present invention is to provide an arrangement that fully or partially solves the problems described above. This aim is achieved through an arrangement that holds an extended object in the form of, for example, a weapon or quiver fixed during transport and that with a simple hand operation can be converted to a game carrier.
- Figure 1 shows the arrangement attached to an object in the form of a weapon that is carried by a user who has been drawn partially transparent
- Figure 2 shows an arrangement according to the invention with its component parts
- Figure 3 shows the arrangement together with an auxiliary part for the transport of prey.
- Figures 1 and 2 show an extended object 1 , for example a weapon in the form of a rifle, intended to be fired from the shoulder 3 of a user 2.
- the rifle 1 is provided in a known manner with a rifle barrel 4, a receiver 5 with what is known as a stock 6 and a buttplate 7, together with attachment means 8, 9 in the form of strap hooks in association with the end of the stock and the buttplate of the receiver.
- An arrangement 10 in the form of an extended strap 11 is attached to the attachment means 8, 9 by means of corresponding attachment means.
- the term "strap" is used here to denote a tape that when in its unloaded condition can demonstrate a rectangular, circular or elliptical cross-section, while when in its loaded condition demonstrates a form with a width that is greater than its thickness.
- the weapon 1 When the user 2 is to transport the weapon 1 by motion, the weapon 1 is suspended through the strap 11 being placed over and in contact with the shoulder 3 of the user 2. Thus the hands are free to be used for, for example, ski poles, if the transport takes place by ski.
- the user 2 often has a rucksack for the transport of equipment, such as dry clothes.
- the use of a rucksack means that the weapon 1 , when this is suspended on the shoulder 3, is located far out on the back of the user 2, in connection with the side of the user 2. This entails the strap 10 having a tendency to be carried farthest out on the shoulder 3 of the user 2, whereby the weapon 1 can easily slip down to the elbow of the user.
- the extended strap 11 demonstrates a second extended strap 12, intended to pass at least partially around the upper part of the body of the user.
- This second strap is attached at one end 12a to the first strap 11 , hereafter called the primary strap, in a manner that allows removal in association with the point of contact 13 of the primary strap 11 with the shoulder 3 of the user 2.
- the secondary strap 12 can be of the same type as the primary strap 11 , but it should be realised that it may also comprise a strap with round, elliptical or similar cross- section.
- the attachment of the secondary strap 12 to the primary strap 11 that allows it to be removed takes place in one preferred embodiment with the aid of a swivelled joint 14 that can be opened, of plastic or composite material. It is an advantage if the joint 14 can swivel in the plane of the primary strap 11.
- the primary strap 11 can be used either on the right or on the left shoulder of the user 2, something that will be described in more detail below. It should herewith be realised that the attachment can take place in a number of other ways, for example by riveting, screwing, tying or sewing the secondary strap 12 onto the primary strap 11 , or also with the aid of a button and buttonhole, not shown in the drawings.
- the free end 12b of the secondary strap is provided with a loop 16 of flexible material, for example leather or a flexible artificial material.
- the loop 16 be arranged in a manner that allows it to be detached at a point 17 of the weapon 1 between the strap hooks 8, 9 of the weapon, advantageously around the pistol grip 17a of the weapon 1 or in association with the position that a pistol grip has on a rifle.
- the secondary strap 12 is arranged with a point of division 18, essentially centrally between its two ends.
- the point of division 18 may comprise a rapid-release lock 19 in the form of a snap fastener or an attachment that in another manner is easy to separate, in order to make it possible in a simple manner to release the loop part of the secondary strap 12 from that part that is attached to the primary strap 11.
- a single-hand adjuster 15 is arranged in association with the rapid-release lock 19 for adjusting the length of the secondary strap 12.
- the single-hand adjuster 15 may be in the form of a sliding lock, a strap lock, hook-and-loop tape, press- button attachments, or another type of step-wise or infinitely adjustable adjustment of length. This is prepared before the transport of the weapon 1 in such a manner that the secondary strap 12 is divided at its point of division 18, after which the loop 16 is looped around the weapon 1 as has been described above.
- the primary strap 11 is placed on one shoulder 3 of the user with the weapon resting against the back.
- the joint 14 of the secondary strap 12 with the aid of the hand and arm that are located on the same side as the shoulder on which the primary strap 11 hangs, is turned in the direction away from the shoulder on which the primary strap is resting.
- the user 2 grips that loop section of the secondary strap 12 with his or her free hand, after which the two parts of the secondary strap are fixed together with the rapid-release lock 19.
- the secondary strap 12 passes from the shoulder 3 of the user 2 essentially diagonally over the chest and partially around the upper body of the user 2 to the weapon 1 between the strap hooks 8, 9.
- the length of the secondary strap 12 is adjusted with the single-hand adjustment 15 such that the weapon 1 is drawn tightly against the rucksack, whereby the weapon is held in place without falling down from the shoulder.
- the weapon lies still due to its contact with the rucksack. If the user is not using a rucksack, the rocking movement of the weapon are avoided in that the weapon is positioned such that it lies flat against the back when the secondary strap 12 is shortened, since the weapon 1 is turned around its longitudinal axis as a result of the location of the loop 16 of the secondary strap 12 around the pistol grip 17a.
- the rapid-action lock 19 of the secondary strap 12 is opened at its point of division 18.
- the secondary strap 12 is divided, that part of the secondary strap that is attached to the weapon 1 falls away from the upper body of the user and becomes suspended from the weapon 1.
- the primary strap 11 is subsequently lifted away from the shoulder 3 of the user whereby the weapon 1 is ready for use. That part of the secondary strap that is attached to the pistol grip 17a of the weapon 1 is located and suspended in such a manner that no disturbance takes place when the weapon is placed ready for use.
- the secondary strap 12 is detached from the attachment 14 that can be divided and from the weapon 1 , after which that part of the jointed attachment 14 that remains in place on the secondary strap 12 is snapped into attachment with an accessory 21.
- the accessory 21 comprises a loop 22 with a locking part 23 that is similar to the part that is attached to the primary strap 11.
- the locking parts 14, 23 of the secondary strap 12 and the accessory 21 are coupled together, whereby a game carrier 24 is formed comprising a strap with loops at its two ends.
- the front legs of the animal 20 are lassoed in one of the loops and its rear legs are lassoed in the second loop, after which the game carrier strap, accompanied by the animal, is lifted up and placed onto the shoulder of the user 2 that is not carrying the weapon 1 and the primary strap 11.
- a weapon can be exchanged for another extended object, not described or shown in the drawings, such as a quiver, a tracking aerial or another extended object that is normally transport with the aid of a strap placed on the shoulder of a user.
- transport by skis has been described in the above description, but it should be realised that the transport of the object may also refer to transport by foot, by bicycle, by motor vehicles in the form of terrain scooters or similar, or with the aid of tame animals such as a horse.
- the present invention is not limited to what has been described above and shown in the drawings: it can be changed and modified in a number of different ways within the scope of the innovative concept specified by the attached patent claims.
