Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a tool-less hub for a hunting blind that allows easy replacement of poles without disassembly of the hub. The hub has protrusions that align with pass-through channels in the hub to secure the pole in place. An additional locking mechanism is also provided to prevent accidental pole removals. These features improve the usability and convenience of hunting blinds.

Problems solved by technology

In the above embodiment, it is possible that the pole may rotate to a specific angle where the flat sides of the protrusions align with the pass-through channels, and the pole may accidentally fall out of the hub.

Abstract

A tool-less hub is provided for hunting blinds and tent structures. Poles with particularly-shaped protrusions are insertable in and removable from the tool-less hub. The protrusions allow the pole to enter the tool-less hub at a particular angle, but once rotated to a different angle, the pole is secured with the hub. And thus, no tools are required to change out a broken pole from the hub. In addition, the tool-less hub may comprise a location for an accessory mount, which may comprise a plurality of bodies that articulate about each other. Accessories such as cameras, lights, game calls, scent dispensers, firearms, shelves, hooks, etc. may be interconnected to the accessory mount, and the articulating bodies may position the accessory in any number of locations and orientations.
