Abstract
An adjustable tree stand assembly of the present invention is used by hunters and naturalists. The assembly presents a support frame of a generally rectangular configuration having a first support member to be connected to a tree and an arm extending in cantilevered fashion to a housing adaptable to receive a seat and seat frame assembly. The seat and seat frame assembly includes a seat portion, a back support portion and a leg or pin extending from the seat portion to be engaged in the housing. An adjustable shooting rail is connected to and extends from the seat and seat frame assembly. The housing is further connected to a platform for supporting the hunter.
Claims17
An adjustable tree stand assembly connected to a surface and movable relative to the surface in various directions, said adjustable tree assembly comprising;
- a first device adaptable to be connected to the surface and presenting at least first and second members with said first member engaging the surface and said second member extending from said first member in cantilevered fashion and pivotable connected to said first member thereby defining various angles between said first member and said second member with said second member movable relative the surface in various directions;
- a platform connected to said second member for supporting a user;
- a seat device connected to said second member and presenting a back portion and a seating portion and a pair of sides connected to said back portion and said seat portion;
- and
- a rail device presenting a pair of first elements secured to said sides of said seat device and pair of extension members presenting distal ends and disposed inside respective first elements and movable to and from said first elements and a guard portion pivotable connected to said distal ends thereby extending between at least a first position as said first elements, said extension members and said guard portion define a single line and a second position wherein said guard portion is pivoted relative said distal ends and below said extension members thereby preventing fall of the user as the user stands on said platform and a third position wherein said guard portion is pivoted relative said distal ends and above said extension members thereby providing a support surface for the user to aim at a target.
An adjustable tree stand assembly connected to a tree and movable relative to the tree in various directions, said adjustable tree assembly comprising;
- a first device adaptable to be connected to the surface and presenting at least first and second members with said first member engaging the surface and said second member extending from said first member in cantilevered fashion and pivotable connected to said first member thereby defining various angles between said first member and said second member with said second member movable relative the surface in various directions;
- a seat device connected to said second member and presenting a back portion and a seating portion and a pair of sides connected to said back portion and said seat portion;
- a rail device presenting a pair of first elements secured to said sides of said seat device and pair of extension members presenting distal ends and disposed inside respective first elements and movable to and from said first elements and a guard portion pivotable connected to said distal ends thereby extending between at least a first position as said first elements, said extension members and said guard portion define a single line and a second position wherein said guard portion is pivoted relative said distal ends and below said extension members thereby preventing fall of the user as the user stands on said platform and a third position wherein said guard portion is pivoted relative said distal ends and above said extension members thereby providing a support surface for the user to aim at a target;
- and
- an adjusting device interconnecting said first and second members and presenting a pair of male elements joined by a female element rotatable in different directions thereby joining said male elements and adjusting said male elements defining various angles between said first member and said second member to position said second member in a plane desired by the user regardless of inclination angles of the tree to provide various seating positions to aim at the target.
