Wild game call
View Patent ↗A wild game call has a single inlet passage into which a user blows to generate sounds that simulate the natural sounds produced by the particular animal being called or attracted. The call includes a splitter that splits the single air inlet passage into a plurality of outlet passages. The sound either is generated in the single air passage or passes into the single air passage from the user and is directed into the plurality of outlet passages to produce the final output sound from the call. The plurality of outlet passages can be configured to produce subtle differences in the sound passing through a passage to provide a combination of sounds more closely simulating the natural animal sound than can be produced in only a single outlet passage. Various sound chamber can be added to the outlet passages to modify the sound emanating from that passage in a desired manner.
1. A wild game call comprising:
a single air passage portion having a single air passage therethrough with an air inlet into which a user blows, and an air outlet;
a sound generation element in the single air passage to generate a sound when a user blows into the inlet of the single air passage in the single air passage portion;
a splitting portion having a single air inlet passage attached in air flow communication to the air outlet of the single air passage portion and a plurality of outlet air passages, said splitting portion splitting the single inlet air passage into a plurality of outlet air passages wherein sound generated by the sound generation element in the single air passage is divided and transmitted into each of the plurality of outlet air passages; and
a plurality of sound chambers each having an air inlet attached to one of the plurality of outlet air passages of the splitting portion, wherein at least one of the sound chambers is a bulbous chamber.
2. A wild game call according to claim 1 , wherein the bulbous sound chamber is constructed of telescoping parts and the user can manually adjust the relative positions of the telescoping parts to adjust the size of the sound chamber.
3. A wild game call comprising:
a single air passage portion having a single air passage therethrough with an air inlet into which a user blows, and an air outlet;
a splitting portion having a single air inlet passage attached in air flow communication to the air outlet of the single air passage portion and a plurality of outlet air passages, said splitting portion splitting the single inlet air passage into a plurality of outlet air passages; and
at least one bulbous sound chamber having an air inlet attached in airflow communication to one of the plurality of outlet air passages of the splitting portion.
4. A wild game call according to claim 3 , wherein the bulbous sound chamber is constructed of telescoping parts and the user can manually adjust the relative positions of the telescoping parts to adjust the size of the sound chamber.
5. A wild game call according to claim 3 , additionally including a sound generation element cooperable with the single air passage to generate a sound when a user blows into the inlet of the single air passage in the single air passage portion.
6. A wild game call comprising:
a single air passage portion having a single air passage therethrough with an air inlet into which a user blows, and an air outlet;
a sound generation element in the single air passage to generate a sound when a user blows into the inlet of the single air passage in the single air passage portion; and
a splitting portion having a single air inlet passage attached in air flow communication to the air outlet of the single air passage portion and a plurality of outlet air passages, said splitting portion splitting the single inlet air passage into a plurality of outlet air passages wherein sound generated by the sound generation element in the single air passage is divided and transmitted into each of the plurality of outlet air passages, wherein the game call is of modular construction with the single air passage portion forming a module and the splitting portion forming a separate module attachable to the single air passage portion module, whereby a particular single air passage portion module may be attached to any of a selection of splitting portion modules.
7. A wild game call according to claim 6 , additional including at least one sound chamber module attachable to the splitting portion module in air flow communication with a selected one of the plurality of outlet passages.
8. A modular wild game call comprising:
a single air passage portion forming a module and having a single air passage therethrough with an air inlet into which a user blows, and an air outlet:
a splitting portion forming a separate module and having a single air inlet passage attached in air flow communication to the air outlet of the single air passage portion and a plurality of outlet air passages, said splitting portion module attachable to the single air passage portion module and splitting the single inlet air passage into a plurality of outlet air passages whereby a particular single air passage portion module may be attached to any of a selection of splitting portion modules; and
at least one sound chamber module forming a bulbous sound chamber attachable to the splitting portion module in air flow communication with a selected one of the plurality of outlet passages.
9. A wild game call according to claim 8 , wherein the bulbous sound chamber is constructed of telescoping parts and the user can manually adjust the relative positions of the telescoping parts to adjust the size of the sound chamber.
10. A wild game call according to claim 7 , wherein the at least one sound chamber module forms a tubular sound chamber.
11. A wild game call according to claim 10 , wherein the at least one sound chamber module includes an tubular member which is manually length adjustable by a user.
12. A wild game call comprising:
a single air passage portion having a single air passage therethrough with an air inlet into which a user blows and supplies sound waves generated outside the game call, and an air outlet; and
a splitting portion having a single air inlet passage attached in air flow communication to the air outlet of the single air passage portion and a plurality of outlet air passages, said splitting portion splitting the single inlet air passage into a plurality of outlet air passages without sound generation elements therein wherein sound passing through the single air passage is divided and transmitted into each of the plurality of outlet air passages.
13. A wild game call according to claim 12 , additionally including at least one sound chamber having an air inlet attached in airflow communication to one of the plurality of outlet air passages of the splitting portion.
14. A wild game call according to claim 13 , additionally including a plurality of sound chambers each having an air inlet attached to one of the plurality of outlet air passages of the splitting portion.
15. A wild game call according to claim 12 , wherein the game call is of modular construction with the single air passage portion forming a module and the splitting portion forming a separate module attachable to the single air passage portion module, whereby a particular single air passage portion module may be attached to any of a selection of splitting portion modules.
16. A wild game call according to claim 15 , additional including at least one sound chamber module attachable to the splitting portion module in air flow communication with a selected one of the plurality of outlet passages.
