The present invention relates to an apparatus to be used while walking a dog that has an optional built-in collar and/or allows for hands free walking.
Apparatus specifically designed to control and walk a dog are known. For example, a dog harness is a piece of equipment comprising one or more straps that surround the dog's torso. The harness may be used to control the movements of a dog in a safe and humane manner. The harness may reduce undesirable tension on the neck of the dog while maintaining freedom of movement for the dog. The harness may also be designed to efficiently utilize a dog's pulling power, without hurting the dog.
A leash, sometimes referred to as a lead, lead line or tether, may be attached to the harness and used by a human to guide and control the dog. The leash may be made of one or more different materials, such as rope, leather or chain. The length of the leash controls the maximum distance the dog can be from the human holding the leash. The human may control the movements of the dog through movements of the leash (and possibly voice commands). With practice and training (of both the human and the dog), the human may exercise a great deal of control over the movements of the dog with small and controlled movements of the leash.
Accordingly, the invention is directed to a leash that allows a person to walk a dog with an optional built-in belt or sash for hands-free walking and an optional built-in collar that may be used if desired. The built-in belt, sash and collar are created solely from the material of the leash.
Additional features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings.
A leash for a person to walk a dog has a belt portion (used to create either an optional belt or sash) having a first terminal end and a second terminal end and a collar portion (used to create an optional collar) having a first terminal end and a second terminal end. The belt portion and collar portions of the leash are separate pieces of material.
The leash may have a belt connector attached to the first terminal end of the belt portion and a collar connector attached to the first terminal end of the collar portion of the leash.
The leash may have a first assembly slidably attached to the belt portion of the leash and configured to be connected to the belt connector. When the belt connector is connected to the first attachment assembly, an optional built-in belt or a sash is formed out of the created loop of material that is configured for a person to wear.
The leash may have a leash length adjuster slidably attached to the leash and configured so that the overall length of the leash may be adjusted when the leash length adjuster slides along the leash.
The leash may have a belt to collar connector to connect the belt portion of the leash with the collar portion of the leash. The belt to collar connector may be an O-ring or a type of buckle suitable to connect two straps of material.
The leash may have a second attachment assembly slidably attached to the collar portion of the leash and configured to be connected to the collar connector. When the collar connector is connected to the second attachment assembly, an optional built-in collar is formed out of the created loop of material that is configured for a dog to wear as a collar.

The present invention will now be discussed with reference to
In this embodiment, the person using the leash 100 may place the belt around the user's waist or the sash over one of the user's shoulders. The process of turning a portion of the leash 100 into a belt, or separately into a sash includes the steps of attaching the collar connector 133 to a collar or harness of the dog, placing the leash around the user's body, and connecting the belt connector 111 to the attachment assembly 112. While the belt is preferably created around the user's body, the sash may be created first and then placed around the user's body. In other embodiments, the belt or sash may be created/worn first and then the belt connector 111 may be connected to the attachment assembly 112. This allows the user to walk the dog in a hands-free manner. In other words the user does not have to use their hands to hold the leash 100 while walking their dog as the leash 100 is attached to the dog using the collar connector 133 and to the user via the built-in belt or the built-in sash.
It should be appreciated that the discussed embodiments may be used in any desired combination. Specifically, the user may use the leash 100 as simply a leash (
The leash 100 may include a first portion having a first terminal end 141 and a second terminal end 142 and including the belt portion 110, and a second portion having a first terminal end 161 and a second terminal end 162 and including the collar portion 130. The belt portion 110 preferably comprises a single piece of continuous material and the collar portion 130 preferably comprises a different single piece of material, i.e., there are at least two separate pieces of continuous material. In some embodiments, a part of the belt portion 110 may have a padded backing 170 to improve the comfort to the user wearing the built-in belt or sash made from the leash 100. In some embodiments, a part of the collar portion 130 may have a padded backing (not shown) to improve the comfort to the dog wearing the built-in collar made from the leash 100.
The belt portion 110 and collar portion 130 may be made of the same material or different materials. The belt portion 110 and collar portion 130 may be made of any desired material. As non-limiting examples, the belt portion 110 and collar portion 130 may be made of leather, nylon, chain, rubber, cotton, webbing or any combination thereof. In other embodiments, the belt portion 110 and/or the collar portion 130 are made of a woven narrow fabric made from nylon filament yarns or high tensile polyester filament yarns. In preferred embodiments, the belt portion 110 and collar portion 130 include reflective stitching to provide for added visibility and safety.
The leash 100 may be of any desired length from a distal end of the belt connector 111 to a distal end of the collar connector 133. In preferred embodiments the length from the distal end of the belt connector 111 to the distal end of the collar connector 133 is between five and 14 feet long.
The belt connector 111 and collar connector 133 may be any desired type of connection device. As non-limiting examples, the belt connector 111 and/or collar connector 133 may be any type of snap hook, hook clip, bolt snap, hook, snap, clip or clasp. The belt connector 111 and collar connector 133 may be any desired type of material. As non-limiting examples, the belt connector 111 and/or collar connector 133 are made of metal (such as, as non-limiting examples, iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium), 3-D printer ink, resin or hard durable plastic.
The belt connector 111 may be attached to the first terminal end 141 of the belt portion 110, i.e., a first end of the leash 100, by any desired method. The collar connector 133 may be attached to the first terminal end 141 of the collar portion 130, i.e., a second end of the leash 100, by any desired method. The belt connector 111 and collar connector 133 may be attached to the leash 100 by any desired means. The belt connector 111 and collar connector 133 may be attached to the leash 100 by the same means or by different means.
In a preferred embodiment of attaching the belt connector 111 to the first terminal end 141 of the leash 100, the belt portion 110 is laced through a D-ring 140, folded back on itself either stitched or riveted to itself, thereby retaining the D-ring 140 at the first terminal end 141 of the leash 100. The belt connector 111 may be attached to the D-ring 140 by any desired means. As non-limiting examples, the belt connector 111 may be attached to the D-ring 140 by welding or by using a screw, bolt, rivet, snap hook, hook clip, bolt snap, hook, snap, clip, or clasp. In preferred embodiments, the D-ring 140 may rotate around a first axis and the belt connector 111 may spin while connected to the D-ring 140 in a second axis. In a preferred embodiment, the first axis of rotation of the D-ring 140 is different from the second axis of the belt connector 111 spinning. In a most preferred embodiment, the first axis of rotation of the D-ring 140 is perpendicular to the second axis of the belt connector 111 spinning.
In a preferred embodiment of attaching the collar connector 133 to the other terminal end 161 of the leash 100, the collar portion 130 is laced through a D-ring 160, folded back on itself and either stitched or riveted to itself, thereby retaining the D-ring 160 at the terminal end 161 of the collar portion 130. The collar connector 133 may be attached to the D-ring 160 by any desired means. As non-limiting examples, the collar connector 133 may be attached to the D-ring 160 by welding or by using a screw, bolt, rivet, snap hook, hook clip, bolt snap, hook, snap, clip, or clasp. In preferred embodiments, the D-ring 160 may rotate around a first axis and the collar connector 133 may spin while connected to the D-ring 160 in a second axis. In a preferred embodiment, the first axis of rotation of the D-ring 160 is different from the second axis of the collar connector 133 spinning. For example, the first axis of rotation of the D-ring 160 can be perpendicular to the second axis of the collar connector 133 spinning.
A first attachment assembly 112 may be attached to the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 such that the first attachment assembly 112 may slide to different positions on the belt portion 110 of the leash 100. The first attachment assembly 112 may be of any desired design. As a non-limiting example, the first attachment assembly 112 may have a buckle and a D-ring 180. The buckle may have a front opening, a middle post and a back opening that allows the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 to be laced up the front opening, over the middle post and down the back opening of the buckle. The D-ring 180 may be connected or attached to or near the middle post of the buckle. The first attachment assembly 112 may be made of metal (such as, as non-limiting examples, iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium), 3-D printer ink, resin, hard durable plastic or some combination thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the belt connector 111 is removably attachable to the D-ring 180 of the attachment assembly 112.
The first attachment assembly 112 may be configured to be connected to the belt connector 111 by any desired means. When the belt connector 111 is connected to the first attachment assembly 112, the belt portion 110 forms a loop that can serve as either a belt or a sash that a person may wear either around the waist of the user (belt) or around a shoulder of the user (sash). The first attachment assembly's 112 position on the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 may be changed to change the size of the built-in optional belt or built-in optional sash. For example, the user may grip the pull tab 184 in one hand and the belt portion 110 in the other hand (on the proximal/belt side to loosen and the distal end to tighten) and pulls the belt portion 110.
An attachment assembly 131 may be attached to the collar portion 130 of the leash 100 such that the attachment assembly 131 may slide to different positions on the collar portion 130 of the leash 100. The attachment assembly 131 may be of any desired design. As a non-limiting example, the attachment assembly 131 may have a buckle 192 and a D-ring 190. The buckle 192 may have a front opening, a middle post and a back opening that allows the collar portion 130 of the leash 100 to be laced up the front opening, over the middle post and down the back opening of the buckle 192. The D-ring 190 may be rotatably connected or attached to or near the middle post of the buckle 192. The attachment assembly 131 may further comprise a pull tab 194, comprising a tactile material such as a fabric or leather strip, attached to the sliding buckle 192 (e.g., to the proximal bar of a slip-lock buckle). The pull tab 194 may be grasped by the user to stabilize the attachment assembly 131 when pulling the leash 100 to slide the attachment assembly 131 along the collar portion 130 (i.e., to loosen or tighten the collar loop). The attachment assembly 131 may be made of metal (such as iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium), 3-D printer ink, resin, hard durable plastic or some combination thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the collar connector 133 is removably attachable to the D-ring 190 of the attachment assembly 131.
Also, as illustrated, the collar portion 130 threads through the attachment assembly 131 the same way as the belt portion 110, and permanently attaches to the belt to collar connector 120. The attachment assembly 131 is adjusted as described above to adjust the size of the collar. The attachment assembly 131 may be configured to be connected to the collar connector 133 by any desired means. When the collar connector 133 is connected to the attachment assembly 131, a loop of material from the collar portion 130 is formed creating a built-in collar that a dog may wear around its neck. The attachment assembly 131 position on the collar portion 130 of the leash 100 may be changed to change the size of the built-in dog collar. A collar length adjuster 132 may be positioned on the collar portion 130 between the attachment assembly 131 and the second terminal end 161 of the leash 100 and may be configured to arrest the sliding movement of the attachment assembly 131. In this manner, the collar length adjuster 132 may be used to set a minimum diameter for the built-in collar, so that the collar cannot be made smaller than a minimum desired diameter to prevent strangling the dog.
In an alternate, not-illustrated embodiment, the collar strap length may be adjustable using the collar length adjuster 132 as follows: the collar strap threads through the apertures of 132 as illustrated, extends through the closest aperture of the attachment assembly 131, and overlaps back on itself, attaching to the middle bar of the collar length adjuster 132. In this embodiment, the belt to collar connector 120 is omitted, and the belt portion 110 extends through the other aperture of the attachment assembly 131 and loops back on itself to attach to 113 as described below.
The attachment assembly 112 for forming the belt and the attachment assembly 131 for forming the collar may have an outer frame that is either square or rectangular. The attachment assemblies 112, 131 may have zero, one, two or more parallel posts positioned inside the outer frame. These shapes allow the attachment assemblies 112, 131 to be easily slid along portions of the belt portion 110 and the collar portion 130, respectively, by loosening the belt portion 110 or collar portion 130 inside the corresponding attachment assembly 112, 131, yet once in place, the belt portion 110 or collar portion 130 may be tightened in the corresponding attachment assembly 112, 131 to firmly hold the attachment assembly 112, 131 to its current position.
A leash length adjuster 113, which may be, as a non-limiting example, a tri-glide or similar collar length adjuster, may be slidably attached to the leash 100 such that the leash length adjuster 113 may slide to different positions on the leash 100. The leash length adjuster 113 may be of any desired design and may use any desired means to adjust the length of the leash 100. In some embodiments, the leash length adjuster 113 may be slid by the user along the leash 100 where the leash length adjuster 113 is attached, which changes the length of an overlapping portion 114, formed as described below, to correspondingly change the length of the leash 100. As a non-limiting example, the leash length adjuster 113 may have a buckle having a front opening, a middle post and a back opening that allows the leash 100 to be laced up the front opening, over the middle post and down the back opening of the buckle. The leash length adjuster 113 in some embodiments may give the leash 100 an adjustability between four feet and seven feet.
The leash length adjuster 113 may be made of metal (such as, as non-limiting examples, iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium), 3-D printer ink, resin, hard durable plastic or some combination thereof.
The belt portion 110 of the leash 100 may be connected to the collar portion 130 of the leash 100 by any desired means. As a non-limiting example, a belt to collar connector 120 may be used to connect the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 to the collar portion 130 of the leash 100. The belt to collar connector 120 may be an O-ring or a D-ring. In other embodiments, the belt to collar connector 120 may be a buckle having a collar opening and a belt opening. In another embodiment, the belt to collar connector 120 may have a collar opening, a belt opening and a middle post. The belt to collar connector 120 may be made of metal (such as, as non-limiting examples, iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium), 3-D printer ink, resin, hard durable plastic or some combination thereof. The belt to collar connector120 may use any desired means to connect the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 with the collar portion 130 of the leash 100.
As a non-limiting example, the belt to collar connector 120 may be a slip-lock or similar buckle having a belt opening, a center post and a collar opening. The second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 may be threaded through the belt opening and attached to the leash length adjuster 113 (e.g., to the center post or middle bar of a slip-lock buckle) to form the overlapping portion 114, so that the overall length of the leash 100 is adjusted when the leash length adjuster 113 slides along the belt portion 110 of the leash 100. For example, sliding the leash length adjuster 113 toward the collar portion 130 shortens the overlapping portion 114 and lengthens the amount of leash 100 between the respective ends, and sliding the leash length adjuster 113 the opposite direction has the opposite effects.
In a preferred embodiment, the second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 is attached to the middle post of the buckle of the leash length adjuster 113. The second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 may be attached to the middle post of the buckle by any desired means. In a preferred embodiment of attaching the second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 to the middle post of the buckle of the leash length adjuster 113, the second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 is laced up the front opening, over the middle post and down the back opening of the buckle. The second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 is folded back on itself and the second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 is either stitched or riveted to itself, thereby attaching the second terminal end 142 of the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 to the leash length adjuster 113.
The second terminal end 162 of the collar portion 130 may be threaded through the collar opening, overlapped with itself and attached to itself by any desired means. As non-limiting examples, the second terminal end 162 of the collar portion 130 may be attached to itself using one, two, three or more rivets and/or by stitching thereby connecting the second terminal end 162 of the collar portion 130 to the belt to collar connector 120. This process results in the enclosing, trapping and retaining of the collar opening of the buckle (or more broadly, with the belt to collar connector 120) with a loop of material from the collar portion 130.
A leash 100 for a person to walk a dog has a belt portion 110 (used to create either an optional built-in belt or an optional built-in sash) having a first terminal end 141 and a second terminal end 142 and a collar portion 130 (used to create an optional built-in collar) having a first terminal end 161 and a second terminal end 162. The belt portion 110 and collar portion 130 of the leash are separate pieces of material.
The leash 100 may have a belt connector 111 attached to the first terminal end 141 of the belt portion 110 and a collar connector 133 attached to the first terminal end 161 of the collar portion 130 of the leash 100. The leash may have a first attachment assembly 112 slidably (preferably including a D-ring) attached to the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 and configured to be connected to the belt connector 111. When the belt connector 111 is connected to the first attachment assembly 112, an optional built-in belt or a built-in sash is formed out of the created loop of material from the belt portion 110 that is configured for a person to wear.
The leash 100 may have a leash length adjuster 113 slidably attached to the leash 100 and configured with the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 so that the overall length of the leash 100 may be adjusted (shortened or lengthened) when the leash length adjuster 113 slides along the leash 100.
The leash 100 may have a belt to collar connector 120 to connect the belt portion 110 of the leash 100 with the collar portion 130 of the leash 100.
