Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 186 words
A device for storing fishing line supply spools and winding fishing line from a line supply spool to a fishing reel spool, comprising a storage box including spaced-apart upright walls and a bottom member fixedly supporting said walls, and a winder assembly including a spindle member, means to rotatably mount said spindle member including a frame, said frame having a pair of spaced upright walls, and means joining said frame upright walls, slot means defined in the upright walls of said frame to permit removably mounting the frame at least partially over the upper portion of a first of said upright walls of said box, said spindle member including means to mount a spool from a fishing reel thereon for rotation therewith, a supply spool of fishing line, means to retain said supply spool adjacent a second upright wall of said box with the axis of rotation of said supply spool substantially parallel to the spindle axis, and means to rotate said spindle, said box being of size to store at least one supply spool of fishing line and the other parts comprising the winder assembly.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 186 words
A device for storing fishing line supply spools and winding fishing line from a line supply spool to a fishing reel spool, comprising a storage box including spaced-apart upright walls and a bottom member fixedly supporting said walls, and a winder assembly including a spindle member, means to rotatably mount said spindle member including a frame, said frame having a pair of spaced upright walls, and means joining said frame upright walls, slot means defined in the upright walls of said frame to permit removably mounting the frame at least partially over the upper portion of a first of said upright walls of said box, said spindle member including means to mount a spool from a fishing reel thereon for rotation therewith, a supply spool of fishing line, means to retain said supply spool adjacent a second upright wall of said box with the axis of rotation of said supply spool substantially parallel to the spindle axis, and means to rotate said spindle, said box being of size to store at least one supply spool of fishing line and the other parts comprising the winder assembly.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 40 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said means to retain said supply spool adjacent a said second upright wall of said box includes bracket means removably mountable on said box, and an axle member to rotatably receive said supply spool.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 86 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said frame has at least two upright walls at right angles to each other and said first and second upright walls are end walls of said box, and said box has upright sidewalls joining said end walls of said box, and said slot means is formed through at least two walls of said frame at right angles to each other whereby said frame may be positioned partially over one upright end wall and an adjoining upright sidewall of said box.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 40 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said means to rotate said spindle includes a crank member and a gear set on the frame to rotate said spindle at a greater speed than the speed of rotation of said crank member.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 43 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said means to mount a fishing reel spool on the spindle include a pair of centering plugs having facing frustoconical surfaces of size to partially fit within a center opening of a reel spool to be supported.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
The device of claim 5 and means to adjustably retain said centering plugs on said spindle.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 99 words
A winding device for transferring fishing line from a supply spool to a fishing reel spool comprising a frame member, said frame member including a pair of spaced-apart upright walls and a bottom wall joining said upright walls, a spindle rotatably mounted to said upright walls, means to mount a fishing reel spool on said spindle for rotation with said spindle, drive means to rotate said spindle, and means to mount said frame onto a support wall comprising a slot defined in said upright walls and said bottom wall to fit closely over upper portion of said support wall.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 99 words
A winding device for transferring fishing line from a supply spool to a fishing reel spool comprising a frame member, said frame member including a pair of spaced-apart upright walls and a bottom wall joining said upright walls, a spindle rotatably mounted to said upright walls, means to mount a fishing reel spool on said spindle for rotation with said spindle, drive means to rotate said spindle, and means to mount said frame onto a support wall comprising a slot defined in said upright walls and said bottom wall to fit closely over upper portion of said support wall.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 50 words
The winding device of claim 7 and an end wall extending between the upright walls and positioned along one edge thereof, said slot being defined in said end wall and said upright walls and bottom wall to permit mounting the frame means onto a corner junction of two support walls.
