Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, these gauges, regulators and computing apparatus can be damaged before or after a dive, for example if the scuba diving equipment is accidentally dropped or knocked against other objects, if equipment is accidentally dropped onto the gauges, regulators and computing apparatus, or if these devices contact sea sand or petrol on the deck of the dive boat.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]FIGS. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings illustrate a holder for scuba diving equipment according to one embodiment of the present invention. The holder is designated generally with the reference numeral 10 and is designed to be attached to a back pack for a scuba diving buoyancy compensation device (not shown) in a manner which is described in more detail below.

[0020] The holder 10 includes a back sheet 12 and a front sheet 14 extending across a portion of the back sheet, as shown. The front sheet 14 is connected to the back sheet 12 along a bottom edge 16A and two lateral edges 16B and 16C to define a pocket or pouch between the back sheet 12 and the front sheet 14 with an upper access opening 18 leading into the pouch. As representatively illustrated in FIG. 1, the width of the access opening 18 may be smaller than the width of a lower region 20 of the pouch, and an elastic band (not visible) may extend across an upper edge 22 of the front sheet 14 so as to render the ac...

Abstract

The invention provides a holder (10) for scuba diving equipment. The holder (10) is attachable to a back pack for a buoyancy compensation device, and includes a back sheet (12) and a front sheet (14) connected to the back sheet (12) to define a pouch with an upper access opening (18). The holder (10) includes an elastic member which extends across an upper region (22) of the front sheet (14) so that the access opening (18) is expandable during insertion of scuba diving equipment into the pouch and subsequently contractible to retain the scuba diving equipment within the pouch.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] THIS invention relates to a holder for scuba diving equipment. More specifically, the invention relates to a holder for protecting scuba diving gauges, regulators and computing apparatus before and after a dive. [0002] Gauges, regulators and computing apparatus for scuba diving equipment usually are exposed during the loading of the equipment onto a dive boat, the unloading of the equipment from the dive boat, or the transporting of the equipment to and from the boat. Accordingly, these gauges, regulators and computing apparatus can be damaged before or after a dive, for example if the scuba diving equipment is accidentally dropped or knocked against other objects, if equipment is accidentally dropped onto the gauges, regulators and computing apparatus, or if these devices contact sea sand or petrol on the deck of the dive boat. [0003] Since the proper functioning of these gauges, regulators and computing apparatus is essential when diving, it is d...
