Description

TITLE:
Improved Snood Connector and fishing system.
FIELD OF INVENTION:
This invention relates to an improved snood connector which, for example, may be used in conjunction with main fishing lines in the commercial fishing industry, dog leads, tent guy ropes, sporting equipment such as haversacks and luggage restraining devices. The invention also relates to a fishing system which makes use of the improved snood connector.
BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION:
The invention will be discussed with reference to the fishing industry. Thus snood connectors are used in the commercial fishing industry to attach a fishing line and hook to a main line which is released from a fishing boat. A number of snood connectors can then attach an equal number of line and hooks with the main line.
Present types of known snood connectors used in the commercial fishing industry involve the use of a solid metal connector with a spring loaded movable arm, which is strenuous on the hand, particularly when a number of snood connectors are attached to a main line by the fisherman. An additional problem is that present snood connectors provide for a catch which is to be threaded by the main line. The catch must be forward into the open position for attaching to the main line. This catch is insecure and allows for the snood connector to be detached from the main fishing line. Furthermore, existing snood connectors are made of metal and are consequently heavy and bulky.
There is a need to produce an improved snood connector which is less strenuous on the hand, and which provides for a more secure catch to be threaded by a main line and is lighter in construction. This invention provides at least a partial solution for this problem.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of a magazine for hooks; and
Figure 4 is a side view of a second embodiment of the invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:
In this invention, the word "line" refers to, for example, a main line as used in the fishing industry, a lead, a rope or string and similar products.
Referring to paragraph a, clause II of the Brief Summary of the Invention, it is preferred that the handle means is of partial rectangular construction, being provided with a cavity of sufficient volume so as to receive the elongated load transfer means. It is further preferred that the cavity is defined by the majority of the handle means. The handle means is made from any suitable flexible plastics material, but it is preferred that nylon or any other thermoplastic material which may be injection moulded is used. It is further preferred that the handle means is provided with a utility aperture. It is preferred that the aperture is generally positioned in the middle region of the handle means. It is further preferred that the handle means is also provided with serrations on at least one side, preferably more than one side, so that the handle means may be gripped more securely by the fingers of the user.
Referring to paragraph b, clause II of the Brief Summary of the Invention, the head means takes any suitable construction, but it is preferred that a thin hollow wedge of flexible plastics material is used. It is further preferred that the head means is injection moulded as part of the handle means, with the use of suitable plastics material, so that the head means is movably fixed to the handle means.
Referring to paragraph c, clause π of the Brief Summary of the Invention, the load transfer means is of any suitable construction, but it is preferred that a metal shank of suitable length which is provided with a U-bend on each end of the shank is used. It is preferred that the first U-bend is provided with a first kink, the kink being directed laterally outward. This end of the hook means is located at the head means end of the connector.
Referring to clause π, the hook means is positioned inside the cavity of the handle means, the first U-bend being adapted to protrude out of the handle means in close proximity to the head means, so that the first U-bend is adapted to contact the head means when the head means is in the operative position. The purpose of the first kink provided on the hook means is to securely position the hook means with the head means when the head means is in operative position. Also referring to clause π, the second U-bend is adapted to be received inside the base region of the handle means. It is preferred that the second U-bend is provided with a second kink, the kink being directed laterally outward and then inward. The purpose of the second kink provided on the hook means is to function as a clip and hence to securely position the hook means inside the cavity of the handle means.
Referring to paragraph d, clause II of the Brief Summary of the Invention, the catch means is defined by the space between the first U-bend of the hook means and the head means when the head means is in the operative position.
Referring to clause IQ of the Brief Summary of the Invention, and paragraph (c) in particular, the spatial region preferably comprises a rounded region for receiving line and a guide for trapping and leading line to the rounded region.
Referring to paragraph (d) of clause III, the slide means may be fitted into corresponding recesses in the handle.
Referring to paragraph (e) of clause HI, the line connector may be a rod with a loop at one end to attach to a line leading to a hook with, at a second end, a pivoting cam device to operate the slide means.
Referring to clause IV of the Brief Summary of the Invention a stop means may be used to limit travel of the snood connector according to the invention along a line. In essence the stop means is a clam-shell device through which the line may be threaded. Thus the clam-shell device is provided with hinges to allow the device to be attached to and removed if desired, from the line.
The clam-shell device is preferably generally cylindrical with an axial hole to allow threading or positioning of the line. The cylindrical body is split into two hemi- cylinders one being hingedly attached to the other.
The clam-shell may be closed around the line by means of circlips which fit into grooves in the outer surface of the cylindrical body. The circlips may be compressed into position using a suitable tool.

Numeral 6 refers to the elongated load transfer means as a whole. Numeral 7 indicates a first kink provided on first U-bend 8. Numeral 9 refers to a shank. Numeral 10 indicates a second U-bend which is provided with second kink 11. Hook means 6 may be inserted into hollow handle means 2, U-bend 8 projecting through head means 5 to define catch means 5A.
The snood connector may be operated by the following method. The user holds the snood connector by the handle means 2, placing the index finger where the serrations 3 are positioned. The user moves the head means 5 to an non-operative position by a squeeze action of the head means 5 in the direction of arrow A, wherein the catch means 5 A is opened, the catch means being adapted to be threaded by a line. The head means is then returned to the operative position, whereby the device may be attached to the line.
Alternatively head means 5 may be drawn across the line (at approximately 90° to the line) while applying sufficient pressure to deflect the head means to allow the line to the be threaded.
Turning to Figure 2, a snood connector 20 is connected to a main line 21. Two clam¬ shell devices 22 and 23 prevent snood connector 20 moving along main line 21 except within defined limits. Numerals 24A and 24B indicate circlips on clam-shell device 22. A swivel and hook assembly 25 is connected to snood connector 20 by line 26.
Figure 3 illustrates a storage system 30 for hooks. Thus a hook assembly 25 comprises a hook 251 on a line threaded through a bead 252. This bead (and like beads) can track along a system of partial, opposed, elongated hemicylinders 27. Clearly the hook assemblies may be inserted in a line and removed as required.
Referring to Figure 4, snood connector 40 comprises handle means 41 ending in head means 42. The handle means and head means are partially separated by a spatial region 43. A slide means 44 is movably mounted on handle means 41 and is ultimately operable by line connector 45.
