Flexible fish shaped container for disposal of fisher's litter
Abstract
The flexible fish shaped container for disposal of fisher's litter, has an internal hollow body chamber surrounded by the external shape of a trout and is constructed of flexible rubber material which incorporates design functions into a trout fish shape for pleasing user aesthetics, attachment location, ease of one handed operation and user safety. The fin locations of the trout fish shaped container guide finger placement and the natural grip of the hand with thumb and forefinger resting at the tips of the trout shaped tail for one handed operation. Access occurs through a normally closed slit in the tail. When the tips of the fish tail are squeezed toward each other the slit opens thereby providing access to the internal cavity for disposal of fisher's litter and waste items. When thumb and finger pressure is released the slit closes.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A molded apparatus forming a flexible trout fish-shaped container for disposal of fisher's litter comprising: A trout fish-shaped body defined by a head, a mouth, eyes, gills, pectoral fins, pelvic fin, anal fin, dorsal fin, adipose fin and caudal fin tail; and being made of a body material which is pliable and flexible which has memory to return to a relaxed closed position from a forced open position which occurs when forced by human operation; an internal cavity within said trout fish-shaped body; an operable slit in caudal tail fin allowing access into a hollow inner cavity for litter disposal by grasping tail fin tips between thumb and forefinger and compressing the tail tips each toward the other for operation of the slit into an open condition; releasing compressive force from the tail fin tips thus operating the tail fin causing the operable slit to return to a closed condition; an attachment hole feature in the caudal tail fin for attaching the apparatus to an attachment device.
