RO137542A0 - Asymmetrically-shaped weight sinker for ecological fishing - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to an asymmetrically-shaped weight sinker for ecological fishing in rivers and ponds. According to the invention, the weight is made of a non-toxic alloy of iron, hard cement, quick cement, sand, gravel, plasticizing additive and water and has a hexagonal shape pointed at one end and elongated at the other, having a universal loop (1) and a swivel (2) of universal size that fits all types of clamps and clips known to fishermen.

Description

The invention relates to an asymmetrically shaped sinking weight for ecological fishing in running waters and ponds.

Specifying the state of the art

Fishing with sinking lead weights was and still is the most used method of catching fish. However, lead is a poisonous metal for the water and for all living things that live in it. Carp and predator are notorious for losing an extremely large amount of bait, and with it, lead weights.

Lead is a heavy metal, known in Mendeleev's table under the symbol Pb, silver-gray in color and having a very high density. For the human body, but also for all living organisms, lead is a toxic metal, human lead poisoning is called saturnism. Its penetration into any organism causes destruction of the nervous system, blood cells and digestive system. Lead is also considered carcinogenic and can cause death.

as for fish, if they ingest lead, it is only very difficult, and sometimes never, to excrete it.

in the European space, more precisely in Denmark, since 2002 the sale of lead fishing gear has been prohibited, as the dangers of using this metal are known.

So, among the disadvantages of using lead-based weights in sport, recreational and recreational fishing are the following:

Lead is a toxic metal for living organisms and the environment;

Loss of bait and associated weights is high in carp or snapper fishing, which results in increased lead on the bottom of running waters or lakes, with the potential for lead to be ingested by living organisms;

RO 137542 AO

The penetration of lead into living organisms results in the destruction of the nervous system and cancer.

Presentation of the technical problem that the invention intended to solve

The invention aims to design a sinking weight for ecological fishing, made without the use of lead in the composition, with the aim of not harming the environment and living organisms in running waters and ponds

Disclosure of the invention

The sinking weight for ecological fishing according to the invention is characterized by a mixture of iron, hard cement, quick cement, sand, gravel, plasticizing additive and water, resulting in a non-toxic and environmentally friendly alloy.

The diving weight for ecological fishing, according to the invention, has magnetic properties, which allows the lost weights to be easily removed from the water and re-loaded, which is why they are extremely durable compared to the use of lead.

Also, by being able to recover the sinking weight for ecological fishing from the water, the environment is protected from the remaining of any residues related to the fishing activity, residues that have the potential to be swallowed by living organisms.

The composition of the diving weight for ecological fishing is characterized by the fact that it can be modeled in several asymmetric shapes (Fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) containing a universal size vortex that fits all types of clamps and clips known to fishermen or a protective tube for fishing line.

The invention can be designed in the following ways:

Figure 1

Sinking weight with an asymmetrical shape for ecological fishing characterized by the fact that it has a sharp hexagon shape at one end and an elongated shape at the other that ensures extreme and accurate casting, and its hexagonal shape prevents sinking in mud or soft soils, having a dimension vortex universal (pt. 2) and a universal loop (pt. 1).

Sinking weight with an asymmetrical shape for ecological fishing, characterized by the fact that it has a quadrangular shape and having rounded edges, provided with a central insert of a wire protective tube (pt. 1).

3. Figure 3

Sinking weight with asymmetrical shape for ecological fishing characterized by having a flat pear shape, with concrete protrusions that have the task of maintaining the weight on different relief planes on the bottom of the water, having a vortex of universal size (pt. 2) and a universal loop (point 1).

Sinking weight with an asymmetrical shape for ecological fishing, characterized by the fact that it has a pointed hexagon shape at one end and an elongated shape at the other, provided with a central insert of a thread protector tube (pt. 1).

5. Figure 5

Sinking weight with an asymmetrical shape for ecological fishing characterized by the fact that it has the shape of an elongated cylinder that ensures very good aerodynamics, having a universal size vortex (pt. 2) and a universal loop (pt. 1).

Presentation of the advantages of the invention in relation to the state of the art

- Reducing the degree of pollution of the environment as well as living organisms;

- Reducing costs with the continuous purchase of lead weights, through the possibility offered by the invention to recover the lost weights with the help of a magnet;

- Reducing the carbon emission caused by lead as well as the toxic and harmful effects it has;

- Elimination of waste resulting from melting lead;

- The reusable nature of the weight for ecological fishing.

Presentation of an embodiment of the invention for each variant

1. Variant 1 - Figure 1, Figure 3, Figure 5

The invention can be carried out following the following steps:

STEP 1

Weigh the iron, sand, gravel and cement, depending on the weight and size desired for the fishing weight, then mix with water and plasticizer additive until the entire composition is homogenized.

STEP 2 inside the specially designed fishing weight mold, a thin layer of release agent is applied, then the loop and swirl are inserted and then the mold is closed.

STEP 3

With the help of a funnel, pour the obtained composition into the mold and compact it until the mold is full.

STEP 4

The mold is left to dry between 24-48 hours, to strengthen the composition.

STEP 5

After 24-48 hours the mold is opened and the weight is ready to use.
