Abstract

Abstract A field mount for arrow quivers includes a support base having a generally rigid body of a size and shape to be readily held in the hand of the user and a pointed attachment member for mounting the body upon a desired support found in the field, the attachment member being carried by the body to project transversely therefrom. The body includes means for receiving portions of the attachment member and for transmitting manually-applied mounting forces thereto, so that the pointed attachment member may be made to pierce and enter a desired external support. The support base has arrow quiver-mounting carried thereon for removably receiving quiver-mounting structure, whereby the readily-carried and manually-mounted support base may readily be used to detachably mount an arrow quiver for use while hunting in the field.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 176 words
A portable and detachable, manually-installed field mount for arrow quivers, comprising in combination: a support base having a generally rigid body of elongated configuration and of a size and shape adapted to be held in the human hand; a pointed attachment member carried by said body and projecting transversely therefrom; said body including means defining a recess for receiving portions of said attachment member and for transmitting mounting forces to said attachment member generated by said hand, such that said pointed attachment member may be made to pierce and enter a desired supportive structure encountered in the field while hunting or the like to thereby manually secure the support base to such supportive structure without the need for supplemental tools or additional fastener devices; and an arrow quiver-mounting means adapted to be secured to said support base, said base and quiver-mounting means having complementary and cooperative structure for securing one to the other thereof, said quiver-mounting means adapted to removably receive corresponding portions of an arrow quiver to thereby removably mount such quiver upon said base.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 176 words
A portable and detachable, manually-installed field mount for arrow quivers, comprising in combination: a support base having a generally rigid body of elongated configuration and of a size and shape adapted to be held in the human hand; a pointed attachment member carried by said body and projecting transversely therefrom; said body including means defining a recess for receiving portions of said attachment member and for transmitting mounting forces to said attachment member generated by said hand, such that said pointed attachment member may be made to pierce and enter a desired supportive structure encountered in the field while hunting or the like to thereby manually secure the support base to such supportive structure without the need for supplemental tools or additional fastener devices; and an arrow quiver-mounting means adapted to be secured to said support base, said base and quiver-mounting means having complementary and cooperative structure for securing one to the other thereof, said quiver-mounting means adapted to removably receive corresponding portions of an arrow quiver to thereby removably mount such quiver upon said base.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 1, and further including a protective cover overlying the end of said pointed attachment member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 1, wherein said pointed attachment member is removably carried by said body.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 73 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 1, wherein said pointed attachment member comprises a threaded screw-like element having a head portion which includes engageable means for rotatably driving such element to thread it into a desired support found in the field, and wherein said body includes means for cooperatively engaging said engageable means to rotatably drive said screw-like element in a manner threadably mounting said body upon said desired support.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 4, wherein said pointed attachment member is removably carried by said body.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 4, and further including a protective cover overlying the end of said pointed screw-like element.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 35 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 4, wherein said screw-like element comprises a lag bolt having an angularly-shouldered head, said body having a complementary angularly-shouldered recess for engaging and driving said head.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 24 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 7, and further including a protective cover overlying the end of said pointed screw-like element.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 23 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 8, wherein said protective cover is coupled to and carried with said support base.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 53 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 1, wherein said support base comprises a dished member of molded configuration having a generally centrally-located hub portion, said hub portion comprising at least in part said means defining a recess for receiving portions of said attachment member and for transmitting mounting forces thereto.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 91 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 10, wherein said pointed attachment member comprises a threaded screw-like element having a had portion which includes engageable means for rotatably driving such element to thread it into a desired support found in the field, and wherein said body includes means for cooperatively engaging said engageable means to rotatably drive said screw-like element in a manner threadably mounting said body upon said desired support, said hub portion comprising said means for cooperatively engaging said engageable means to rotatably drive said screw-like element.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 35 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 11, wherein said screw-like element comprises a lag bolt having an angularly-shouldered head, said hub having a complementary angularly-shouldered recess for engaging and driving said head.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 38 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 1, wherein said arrow quiver-mounting means includes an upwardly-opening slot and a downwardly-extending flange member receivable in and engageable with said slot to mount said quiver upon said base.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 38 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 13, wherein said quiver-mounting means comprises a bracket member and means for securing said member to said body, said bracket member carrying one of said flange member and slot.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 28 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 14, wherein said bracket member carries said slot and includes means for entrapping said flange member within said slot.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 49 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 15, wherein said complementary and cooperative structure for securing said quiver-mounting bracket member to said support base comprises at least one pair of mutually aligned apertures for receiving a screw, and a screw extending through the same two aligned apertures.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 47 words
A field mount for arrow quivers according to claim 16, wherein said complementary and cooperative structure comprises two sets of said aligned aperture pairs, said two sets being spaced a distance apart corresponding to that of the standard mounting holes provided on bows for mounting sights thereupon.
