'l Applicatio'nFebruary claims. (chais-,146) v The-present invention relates to `special containers andmore specically to boxes for containing leader materialand ies for anglers.
Among the objects of the invention is to providea box or container capable of'holding a variety of leader material and also a variety of nies, all readily accessible to the user.
Another object is to provide a container of the kind indicated in which any leader material or kind of fly may be selected without disturbing the. other contents of the container.
Still other objects and advantages will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon reference to the vfollowing description and the accompany.- ing drawings in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of the container.
Fig. 2 is aside elevation as from the right of Fig. 3.
broken away.
Fig. 3 isa view similar to Fig. 1, but with partsA Fig. 4 is a sectional view' as if online 4-4 of- Fig. 3.
f Fig; 5 is a bottom plan view. Fig. `6 is an inside view of the bottom cover. Fig. 7 is a section on line 'I-'l of Fig. 3. Fig; 8 isla section on line 8--8v of Fig. "3. Figs. 9 and 10 show details of'construction.
In the drawings, `the container is shownv as" cylindrical and provided with a loopy I5 to which is secured a swiveled snap hook' IEAy by means of which it maybe suspended from the anglers belt or other suitable support.
The container is as shown most clearly in Figs. 3-and.'4 'I divided by radially arranged `partitions 20 and a circular partition 2| into a central well portion and ,a number of arcuatewcompartments 20A and 213B. Further, the circular well is provided with va centrally located post22. y I I As shown in Fig. 3, the partition 2l does. not entirely surround the centralwell but iscurved outwardly at oneend to anapproximately radial position as at 2IA and serves as a wall for the adjacent arcuate compartments 2BA. It also at this location serves as one wall of a radialpassage ZIBleading from thefcentral well'to the outer curved wall of th-e container. `At its other end, the member 2I extends a short distance into compartment 20B and is turned radially outward a short distance as at 2IC.
Opposite the outer end of passage 2 IB the outer wall of the container is provided with a plurality of openings 23 (see Fig. 2) and xed to the outer periphery of the container adjacent the openings is a spring plate 23A provided with a pluralityof lingers 23B, there being as many fingers as there are openings 23. l
Located in the central welll are a plurality of thin reels `25 each adapted to receive a considerableY supply of leader material, each reel of course holding a different material.
assembled in the container, the loose ends of the material from eachpass through passage 2 IB and through openings 23 and each is drawn under one of the ngers 23B on the outside wall of the container; f
Inrorder vto maintain the leader material on the reels 25` tightly wound thereon by preventing rotation of the reels, each is provided with a brake adapted to act .on its periphery.
These brakes are shown at 3S and a single brake member is shown in Fig. 10. In this gure, the brake member is shown to consist of a stem portion 30A having at one end an arcuate cross portion or shoe 353B of a thickness equal to that of a reel. `At the other end is an axially arranged pin or reduced .portion 30C and in one side near the pin end is a notch 30D.
There will be as manyof the brakes 35 as there are reels 25, and they will be stacked as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 in suitable guide members 3I and 3 IA so that each shoe portion contacts the edges of a reel. j
In the rear end of the recess formed by the guides 3l and 3IA, each of the brakes is provided with'a spring 32, preferably a helical spring carried on the pin 38C and acting against the inner face of the-outer wall to press the brake against the reel.
f In order to relieve the brake pressure on the reels sufficiently to allow some of the material 'to be unwound by .pullingthe `exposed end, the guide wall 3IA is slotted or divided to allow the entrance of the edge of a plate'33 into the notches 33D. This plate carries at its free end a button or knob 33A which extends through the outer wallsothat the plate may be'rocked on its [ul-A crum to lift the brakes" from their contact withl .the reels 25. It may be so adjusted thatit merely i These reels arerotatably Acarried on the post 22, and wheny Arranged within the upper edge of the outer circular wall of the container is an annular plate 37 adapted to cover the compartments 20A but having an arcuate opening shaped and sized to receive the arcuate plate 35, as the latter is pressed up from below by the springs 36. The plate 35 is prevented from passing through the opening by means of the iiange strips 35B carried by its under face and extending beyond the edges of the plate.
The plate 31 and the reels 25 are maintained in position by means of a circular plate 40 provided with a peripheral iiange 49A overlying the plate 31 and xed to the post 22 by means of a suitable screw 40B. With this arrangement of the annular cover 3l, disc 40, and plate 35, access to any of the compartments is had by press ing down the plate 35 to below the level of plate 3l and rotating the latter until the arcuate opening is over the selected compartment. Upon again rotating plate 3l until the opening registers with plate 35, the latter moves up into the opening and prevents further rotation.
In order to provide for an additional supply of the most commonly used leader material or other line material a further storage compartment is provided on the bottom of the container, a vertical ange 55 being provided thereon and a tightly fitting cap 5| provided therefor.
As shown, this cap 5l is provided with a plurality of headed posts 5in about which the lament SIB is wound, a spring fingered clip 52 being provided for securing the end of the material. Further, this material may be kept in a proper condition of humidity by placing on top of the posts lA a moisture containing pad 53.
I claim:
1. Fishing tackle transport means comprising a cylindrical container partitioned to provide a series of compartments annularly arranged and a centrally located circular well, a plurality of reels adapted to contain leader material mounted for rotation in said well, there being a passageway through the compartments and openings in the outer wall of the container whereby the ends of said material may be led to the outside of said container, means on the outer wall of said container for xing the individual ends of said material, brake means in one of said compartments, and means for releasing said brake means.
2. Fishing tackle transport means comprising a cylindrical container partitioned to provide a series of compartments annularly arranged and a centraliy located circular well, a plurality of reels adapted to contain leader material mounted for rotation in said well, there being a passageway through the compartments and openings in the outer Wall of the container whereby the ends of said material may be led to the outside of said container, means on the outer wall of said container for xing the individual ends of said material, individual brake means in one of said compartments adapted to impede the rotation of each of said reels, and means for releasing said brake means.
