A new and improved portable tree platform for elevating via a winch comprising, in combination:
- a planar platform with a circular configuration having a top face and a bottom face, the platform having a pair of parallel closely spaced rear support rods coupled at a lower end thereof to a periphery of the platform and extended upwardly therefrom, the rear support rods having an interconnection member perpendicularly between upper ends thereof, the planar platform further having a front support rod coupled at a lower end thereof to the periphery in a position diametrically opposite the rear support rods, wherein the front support rod extends upward half a distance that the rear support rods extend upwardly;
- a railing assembly including a first annular railing with a diameter equal to that of the platform, the first annular railing being concentrically coupled with respect to the platform between the rear support rods and a midpoint of the front support rod, the railing assembly further including a second annular railing also having a diameter equal to that of the platform, the second annular railing being concentrically coupled with respect to the platform between the rear support rods and a top end of the front support rod, the railing assembly further including an elliptical railing with a first end thereof which resides adjacent to a first foci of the elliptical railing coupled to a base of the front support rod and a second end which resides adjacent to a second foci of the elliptical railing coupled to the rear support rods above the second annular railing;
- a seat with a bottom horizontally oriented portion and an upper vertically oriented portion, the seat rotatably coupled to the platform at a center thereof via a post;
- a wheel assembly including a horizontal axis coupled at a central extent thereof to the periphery of the platform adjacent the rear support rods, the wheel assembly having a pair of wheels rotatably coupled to opposite ends of the axis;
- a weapon holder having a cylindrical configuration with a bottom face coupled to the platform adjacent the seat and a periphery extending upwardly therefrom defining an interior space and a top opening for allowing the storage of a weapon;
- a canvas covering adapted to be situated about the first annular ring and the second annular ring and extending between the periphery of the platform and the second annular ring, the canvas covering having camouflage print thereon;
- an overhead covering having a conical orientation with a diameter equal to that of the platform, the overhead covering being coupled at a periphery thereof to the rear support rods and extending outwardly therefrom in concentric relationship with the platform, the overhead covering having camouflage print thereon;
- a winch unit including a rectangular mounting plate coupled between the upper ends of the rear support rods, a pair of tabs coupled to and extending outwardly from the mounting plate with a pair of axially aligned apertures formed therein, a spool rotatably coupled between the tabs about a horizontal axis via the apertures with a cable wrapped thereon, and a motor connected to a battery for effecting the gathering of the cable on the spool upon the actuation thereof in a first mode of operation and further effecting the dispensing of the cable from the spool upon the actuation thereof in a second mode of operation, whereby an end of the cable may be fixed in an upper extent of a tree such that upon the actuation of the motor in the first mode of operation, the platform may be elevated;
- and
- a pair of eyelets coupled to the rear support rods for allowing straps to be threaded therethrough and secured to the tree upon the platform reaching a desired elevation.
