Abstract
A carrier construction for disconnected sections of a hunter's tree ladder has a pair of spaced apart upright rails, joined at corresponding ends by upper and lower cross members. Each rail has a vertical slot terminating at its upper end in a transverse passage. Individual ladder sections may pass through the passages into the vertical slot and be accommodated therein for storage or transport. The carrier facilitates the handling of a plurality of disconnected ladder sections.
Claims17
A carrier construction for supporting one or more elongate objects, said construction comprising a body having a pair of spaced apart, upright rails connected to one another at opposite ends by upper and lower cross members, each of said rails having therein a longitudinally extending slot of such length and width as slideably to accommodate one or more of said objects, each said rail having a passage in communication with the associated slot in such rail and of such width as to enable each of said objects to pass into and out of said slots via the associated passages.
A carrier construction for supporting one or more separable, elongate ladder sections, said construction comprising a body having a pair of spaced apart, upright parallel rails connected at corresponding ends by lower and upper cross members, each said ladder section having a length greater than the spacing between said rails, each said rail having therein an elongate slot extending between said cross members, each said slot having a width greater than that of each of said sections, thereby enabling each said slot to accommodate any of said sections, each said rail having adjacent one end thereof a laterally extending passage in communication with the slot in the associated rail, each said passage being of such width as slideably to accommodate any one of said sections, thereby enabling any one of said sections to pass into and out of said slots via said passages.
