Description

SPECIFICATION A COLLAPSIBLE ROD REST HOLDER WITH ELECTRONIC FISHING BITE INDICATOR FOR USE WITH RODS AND LINES As we know fishing is an extremely popular sport and a lot of waters are fished by a lot of fishermen who each time approach the water putting a plurity of spiked members into the ground, which after a period of time accelerates the corrosion of the banks at great cost to the water authorities and the fishermen. The collapsible rod rest holder minimises the damage to the banks by redocing the need for numerous spiked members in an open area of bank.
Previous bite alarms have their sensors and alarm boxes together which are directly under the rods and if the fisherman requires a portable alarm it is done at an extra cost and means there are two alarms used for each rod. In the present invention the sensing devices are attached via a cable and other means to the alarm box which makes the alarm box portable to the extent of the cable, which could if needed be put under the rods which eliminates the need for two alarms for each rod thus saving the fishermen uneccessary expense.
This invention relates to a collapsible rod rest holder with electronic fishing bite indicators for use with rods and lines which comprise of a collapsible framework for holding a plurity of individual means of support at a set distance apart which supports a plurity of fishing rods and lines which has a detachable means for holding a plurity of individual bite alarm sensors which can detect the movement of a fishing line which gives a plurity of audible signals and visual signals.A collapsible rod rest holder with electronic fishing bite indicator for use with rods and lines which preferably has a framework of six members which are permanently joined by pivots, fulcrums or hinges and which the said framework has a pivoted means for holding the framework off the ground and which can be locked in an open position and a closed position by a threaded means and has a plurity of means for attaching and locking in position a plurity of individual means for support for a plurity of fishing rods and lines and which the said framework has a means for attaching a cross member as a means of support for a plurity of tubular members containing magnetic switches which are at a set distance apart under the fishing rods which can detect the movement of fishing line.
A collapsible rod rest holder with electronic fishing bite indicator for use with rods and lines in which all the electric components for producing a fixed or variably timed audible or visual alarm apart from the plurity of magnetic switches which are housed in the plurity of tubular members the said alarms are all housed in a communal box from which the cable containing insulated wires which at the other end the wires are connected to electrical contacts within a plug member which is connected to the communal socket on the cross member and then to a plurity of sockets which has the said plugs and tubular members inserted.

A collapsible rod rest holder with electronic fishing bite indicator for use with rods and lines in which the said framework has a means for attaching a cross member 51 as a means of support for a plurity of tubular members 18 containing magnetic switches 32, 33 or 34, 35 which are at a set distance apart directly under the fishing rods which can detect the movement of fishing line 21, 22 and which there is a plurity of tubular members 18 which in use are located in a vertical position directly under a rod and line 21, 22 - see Figure 1 which contains a plurity of magnetic switches 32, 33 or 34, 35 to form two or more electrical circuits 28, 29 or 30, 31 which use normally open 32, 33 or normally closed 34, 35 magnetic switches which are used singularly or in plurity in parallel circuits 28, 29 or series circuits 30, 31.
The said tubular member 18 is permanently attached to a plug member 17 which contains electrical contacts which are connected to the said circuits 28, 29 or 30, 31 and switches 32, 33 or 34, 35 within the tubular member keeping the circuits seperate from each other and which the said plug 17 connects to a socket 15 on a cross member 51 which houses a plurity of sockets - see Figures 5, 6 and 7 with electrical contacts which are in turn connected to a common socket 23 with electrical contacts by the use of insulated wire or other means keeping all the circuits 28, 29 or 30, 31 within the tubular members 18 and the plurity of plug members 17 and the plurity of socket members 15 seperate from each other and which do not contain any other electronic or electrical components other than those mentioned for example members 18, 17, 51, 15, 23 do not contain any light emitting sources or any audible devices. Preferably one of the circuits 28 to contain four magnetic switches 32 in parallel using normally open magnetic switches and a second circuit 29 containing two magnetic switches in parallel 33 also normally open, one being at the top of the tubular member 18 and the other being at the bottom of the said tubular 18 or a circuit with four normally closed magnetic switches 35 in a series circuit 31 and a circuit of two normally closed magnetic switches 34 in a series circuit 30 one being at the top of the said tubular member 18 and the other being at the bottom of the said tubular member 18.
The said cross member 51 may be put directly under the fishing rods by the use of spikes 25 which are detachable or the said member 51 locks on to the said collapsible framework on to members 9, 10 at various positions along them to locate the tubular members 18 and the plug 17 directly under a fishing rod and line .21, 22.
The said slide member 19 is moved along the tubular member 18 by the fishing line 21 when the line is engaged via a means 56 putting tension on the line so when a fish has given a bite the line will either slacken and the slide member 19 will move down the tubular member 18 or the line will be pulled and the slide member 19 will move up the tubular member 18 triggering the said switches 32, 33 or 34, 35 which are used by the signal inducer and receiver and audible and visual alarms to produce a plurity of alarm signals.
The said tubular member 18 has a stop 20 at the top which stops the slide member 19 from leaving the tubular member 18 but allowing the fishing line 21 when the slide member 19 is in its topmost position to leave the slide member 19.via means 56.
There is a cable 46 containing a plurity of insulated wires which are attached at one end by a plug-45--with-a-plurity of etectrical contacts which are connected to the said plurity of insulated wires which locks into the said communal socket and which at the other end of the said cable 46 there is a means for producing an audible and visual alarm and battery source or timing devices or triggering mechanisms for the said timing devices.
The signal inducer 38 containing a plurity of logic circuits 48, 49, 50 which are used as timers or triggers for timers for a plurity of audible and visual alarms 39, 40, 37, 42. The said signal inducer has an internal or an external battery as a source of electrical energy. The positive side of the battery is connected to one side of all the magnetic switches 32, 33 or 34, 35 contained in the plurity of tubular members 18 providing an on-off switch 47 is in a closed position.When one of the magnetic switches 33 in circuit 29 is in a closed-position circuit 29 becomes high and when an on-off switch 44 is in a closed position logic gates 49, 50 activate the circuits to a piezo 42 with variable tone control and the numbered light emitting diodes 37 as long as the switch 33 is in a closed position the audible alarm 42 and visual alarm 37 will remain activated until the switch opens, they will then be de-activated and remain de-activated until switch 33 is closed. When switch 34 is used in place of switch 33 an inverter 57 is introduced to the circuit which results in the same output alarm signals as previously mentioned when switch 33 was used.
When a magnetic switch 32 in circuit 28 changes state from an open position to a closed position there is a fixed or variable pulse from logic gates 48 through circuit 59 which activates a light emitting diode 40 for the fixed or variable timed duration which also triggers a fixed or variable timed circuit using logic gates in 50 which activates a piezo speaker 42 for the duration set. Circuit 59 at the same time activates a fixed or variable timed circuit using logic gates in 49 which activates a light emitting diode 37:which is numbered for the timed duration.
When a magnetic switch 32 in circuit 28 changes state from a closed position to an open position there is a fixed or variable pulse from logic gates 48 through circuit 58 which activates a light emitting diode 39 for the fixed or variable timed duration which also triggers fixed or variable timed circuit using logic gates in 49 which activates a light emitting diode 37 which is numbered for the timed duration at the same time activates a fixed or variable timed circuit using logic gates in 50 which activates a piezo speaker for the duration set.Circuit 58 also enters the internal circuitry of the piezo speaker 42 which does not activate the speaker but alters its tone output so that when circuit 58 is activated it will always give a different tone to that when 59 is activated which when switch 32 changes state from a closed position to an open position and to a closed position the result is a two-tone audible alarm. When switches 35 are used in place of 32 there is no need for any alterations to any of the circuits.
A signal inducer and receiver and alarms 38 at one end of the said cable 46 which has an internal or external battery as a means of source of electrical energy for the alarm circuits 48, 49, 50, and the postive side of the battery is connected to one side of all the magnetic switches 32, 33, or 34, 35, contained in the plurity of tubular members 18 via the said cable 46 the said plugs 45 and the said sockets 15, 23, and the said wires within the cross member 51 keeping all the said circuits 28, 29, or 30, 31, from all the said tubular members 18 seperate and independent of each other.
