Benefits of technology

[0023] An advantage of the present invention is that it keep the reeds readily available and in an easily accessible and convenient location.
[0024] Another advantage of the present invention is that it provides silent operation so as not to disturb the game.
[0025] A further advantage of the present invention is that it allows for one handed opening and closing thereby providing convenience as well as cutting down on movement which might disturb game.
[0026] Still another advantage of the present invention is that the magnet closure affords little chance for failure because magnets won't collect lint, weeds, or other debris that would cause other types of closures to fail.
[0027] An additional advantage of the present invention is that it allows for movement and flexing of the wearers bicep.
[0028] One more advantage of the present invention is that it is adjustable to fit all different arm sizes, and can be worn on either arm for right or left handed hunters

Problems solved by technology

Keeping track of reeds for calling animals, such as elk when elk hunting can be frustrating.
Searching for reeds when switching to different reeds for different calls can, and has led to lost reeds, because of fumbling around for them in pockets.

Embodiment Construction

[0038] In FIGS. 1-8, an armband diaphragm reed call case device 20 allows silent one-handed storing and retrieving of diaphragm reeds used in hunting. An armband 21 for encircling an arm of a wearer comprises an elongated horizontal band of material with an adjustable means for attaching the armband around an arm of a wearer, shown in place in FIG. 7.

[0039] In FIGS. 1, 2, and 8, the adjustable means for attaching the armband around an arm of a wearer comprises a vertical loop 28 at one end of the arm band and an self securing end portion 24A and 24B of the armband at an opposite end of the armband, the self securing portion having one mating element, such as hook material 24A, on an outer end section of the armband and the other mating element, such as loop material 24B, on an adjacent interior section of the armband. The self securing portion 24A and 24B is insertable through the vertical loop 28 and the self securing portion overlaps itself to connect the outer end section to the...

Abstract

An armband has an attached array of one-hand accessible, quiet opening and closing diaphragm call reed storage pockets. The storage pockets may be an accordion envelope-shaped pocket with internal separators forming an array of storage pockets to hold diaphragm call reeds for hunting. A silent magnet and metal non-contacting closure and protruding tab enable silent one-handed opening and closing of the pocket. Alternately the pockets may be formed from elasticized material either cut with horizontal slits or sewn to the armband in overlapping strips to form an array of pockets with protruding diaphragm reed cells. Elasticized straps form an adjacent bottle pouch. An overlapping hook and loop end hooks through a loop end for an adjustable fastener. A short overlapping elasticized section adds tension to the armband.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to article carriers with an attaching means that extends circumferentially of a limb, and particularly to an armband that holds diaphragm reed hunting calls, said armband having a holder for a scent bottle, an accordion-type pocket with a magnetic closure or elasticized series of pockets for storing several diaphragm reed calls. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] Keeping track of reeds for calling animals, such as elk when elk hunting can be frustrating. Searching for reeds when switching to different reeds for different calls can, and has led to lost reeds, because of fumbling around for them in pockets. [0005] U.S. Pat. No. 4,883,171, issued Nov. 28, 1989 to Carlton, indicates an animal call device holder and assembly. An animal call holder and at least one flat animal call device form the assembly. The holder includes a container having a bottom portion formed of a flat cl...
