BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
For a more complete understanding of the present invention reference may now be had to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the upper half of the bow case
FIG. 1A is a perspective view of a handle to carry the bow case
FIG. 1B is a perspective view of one of two hinges to pivot the upper half of the bow case on and off the bottom half of the bow case
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the lower half of the bow case
FIG. 2A and FIG. 2C is a perspective view of the socket protruding inside of the bow case. The socket will be open ended to the outside and bottom of the bow case, closed to the inside to stop the leg from entering the storage area when inserted in the bottom.
FIG. 2B is a perspective view of the handle attached to the bottom half of the bow case Completing the handle with the upper handle
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of one of four legs to insert in the sockets to form a table like bow case. The legs are 1¼ inch inside diameter and 35 inches long
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the steel or plastic base flange 1/16 of an inch thick and a four inch Outside diameter, a hole in the center with a 1¼ inch diameter and four ¼ inch holes to mount the flange to the bottom of the bow case with four ¼ inch bolts
FIG. 4A is a perspective view of a steel or plastic pipe three inches long, 1/16 inch thick walls And a inside diameter of 1¼ inch to match the hole in the base flange of FIG. 4.
FIG. 4B is a perspective view of the steel or plastic base flange and the pipe
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the assembled pipe and flange protruding through the outside and bottom of the bow case.
With this improvement the sockets to be installed or built into the bow case will be made of steel or plastic tubing 1¼ inch inside diameter and 1/16 of an inch thick wall FIG. 4A, cut to a length of 3 inches the 3 inch piece of tubing on the open end will then be electric welded or glued to the center hole in a flat washer like flange FIG. 4. The flange is 4 inches on the outside diameter and a 1¼ inch hole in the center of the flange to match the 1¼ inch hole in the tubing Weld or glue the 1¼ inch hole in the pipe and the 1¼ hole in the flange together FIG. 4B. The other end of the tubing will be plugged by a piece of steel or plastic ⅙ of an inch thick and 1¼ of an inch outside diameter FIG. 4C and electric welded or glued to cap the end of the pipe that would be inside the bow case to stop the legs from entering the bow case when inserted in the sockets.
Using a 1¼ inch hole saw cut four holes one in each corner of the bottom of the bow Case. Install four such sockets in each corner of the bow case through the bottom floor of the bow case using ¼ inch bolts and nuts. With the four flanges mounted in the corners of the bow case insert the four legs FIG. 3 into the sockets. Lift the bow case up on the legs forming a waist high bow case. The bow case will have a much greater accessibility to the equipment inside, a place to set equipment down when needed and much cleaner.
