Abstract
Abstract There is provided a unitary pole system for pitching a camouflage net or any similar cover, comprising at least two telescopically arranged tube members, which are arranged to be extended out of each other by means of straps. Each strap is fixed at the bottom end of an inner tube member and runs in the play between adjacent tube members. The strap may be locked in a slot in the upper edge of the outer tube member. The tube members are prevented from leaving each other by means of strings, which each extends between the bottom ends of adjacent tube members.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
119 words
A pole system for pitching a tent, a camouflage net, or any similar cover, comprising at least two tube members (3), which are telescopically and slidably arranged within each other, hoisting means (12) which at one end are fixed at the bottom end of each inner tube member and extend upwards therefrom in the play between adjacent tube members, and which have a length such that their other ends grippably extend over the upper edge of the outer tubes, and locking means (14) at the upper end of each outer tube member, permitting the hoisting means, and thus the tube members to which they are fixed, to be locked in a desired position relative to the surrounding tube members.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
119 words
A pole system for pitching a tent, a camouflage net, or any similar cover, comprising at least two tube members (3), which are telescopically and slidably arranged within each other, hoisting means (12) which at one end are fixed at the bottom end of each inner tube member and extend upwards therefrom in the play between adjacent tube members, and which have a length such that their other ends grippably extend over the upper edge of the outer tubes, and locking means (14) at the upper end of each outer tube member, permitting the hoisting means, and thus the tube members to which they are fixed, to be locked in a desired position relative to the surrounding tube members.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising restricting means (5), which are arranged between the bottom ends of adjacent tube members.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the hoisting means are flat straps.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the locking means is a slot in the upper edge of each inner tube member.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
35 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the entrance portion of the slot has a rounded V-shape, so as to permit the strap to fold double upon pulling down into the slot.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
17 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 2, wherein the restricting means (5) is a string.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising a spreader means at the top of the innermost tube member.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
82 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 7, wherein said spreader means comprises a pin extending in the direction of the tube members, and a pair of wings being pivotably fitted at the bottom end of said pin, so as to be unfoldable in order to provide a wider support of the net, while said pin is arranged to be introduced in a hole in said cover, in order to keep the pole system in desired position relative to the net.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
30 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, wherein a groove extending longitudinally in the outer surface of each inner tube member is arranged to house the hoisting means.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
22 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, wherein at least the outermost tube member is provided with a bottom closure.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
28 words
A pole system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the outermost tube member is provided with a removable cap, which is connected to the Outermost tube member.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
154 words
A pole system for pitching a camouflage net, attent canvas or any similar cover, comprising at least two cylindrical tube members which are telescopically and slidably arranged within each other, restricting means which are fixed at and extend between the bottom ends of each pair of adjacent tube members, hoisting means of which each is fixed at the bottom end of each inner tube member, extends upwards in the play between adjacent tube members, and extends over the upper edge of the surrounding tube member a distance that permits gripping of the free end of the strap when the inner tube members are to be lifted out of the outer tube members, and locking means in the form of a slot at the upper end of each outer tube member, permitting a locking of each hoisting means by pulling said hoisting means down into a slot so that said hoisting means is wedged therein.
