System for removably connecting an object to a wrist strap

Abstract

A Quick Connect/Disconnect System including a female socket, male connector with pushpin, body tube, setscrews, locknut, adjustable screw, release aid adapter, and cap screw. This Quick Connect/Disconnect System can be used to secure two members together in a wide variety of applications where quick connection/disconnection of the two members is desired. The female socket is secured to one member and the male connector with pushpin, body tube, setscrews, locknut, adjustable screw, release aid adapter, and cap screw are secured to the other member. The female socket is attached to the first for removably connecting an object such as an archery release aid to a wrist strap. The Quick Connect/Disconnect System includes a first component intended for permanent attachment to an archery release aid wrist strap, and a second component intended for attachment to an archery release aid. A quick connect/disconnect type of connection system is provided between the two components, so that the archery release aid may quickly and easily attach/detach to/from the wrist strap. Since, typically all wrist strap type release aids are permanently attached to a Wrist strap by a rope, all thread, steel rod, or other means, the use of a Quick Connect/Disconnect System allows the archer to detach the release aid from his/her wrist without removing the wrist strap. This has many advantages over the prior art most notably related to archery hunting where noise is a major concern, but the utility of such could easily be applied to other aspects of archery such as tournament shooting, or anything that requires a wrist strap attached to an object. The Quick Connect/Disconnect System allows the archer to have hands free movement without fear of interference from the release aid and without sacrificing readiness because the wrist strap is not removed from the wrist and the release aid can be reattached at a moments notice.
