View Patent ↗A preassembled, collapsible tree stand hunting blind which folds into a compact package, utilizing coilable steel frame members which may be collapsed. The enclosure is adapted to be attached to the trunk of the tree and to an associated platform, such as a hunter's tree stand. The enclosure is provided with camouflage elements to render the user relatively invisible to game in the surrounding environment.
1. A portable enclosure adapted for attachment to a tree trunk, comprising:
a tree supported seat assembly having a substantially planar base;
a plurality of interconnected side panels, each of said plurality of interconnected side panels comprising a flexible material bounded by a perimeter, and each of said plurality of side panels further comprising a coilable, flexible frame member attached to each said perimeter of each said side panels, and each of said plurality of side panels having an attachment member connected to said substantially planar base of said tree-supported seat assembly for removably securing said plurality of interconnected panels to said tree-supported seat assembly, wherein each said side panel extends upwardly from said substantially planar base of said tree supported seat assembly.
2. The portable enclosure of claim 1 , further comprising attachment means for removably securing said enclosure to said tree trunk.
3. A portable enclosure adapted for attachment to a tree trunk, comprising:
a tree supported seat assembly having a substantially planar base;
a plurality of interconnected side panels, each of said plurality of interconnected side panels comprising of flexible material bounded by a perimeter, and each of said plurality of side panels further comprising a coilable, flexible frame member attached to each said perimeter of each said side panels, a plurality of filler panels interconnecting each of said plurality of side panels;
a first attachment member for removably securing said plurality of interconnected panels to said tree trunk; and
a plurality of second attachment members removably securing said plurality of interconnected panels to said substantially planar base of said tree-supported seat assembly, wherein each said side panel extends upwardly from said substantially planar base of said tree supported seat assembly.
4. A portable enclosure adapted for attachment to a tree trunk, comprising:
a tree supported seat assembly having a substantially planar base;
at least three side panels interconnected to define a multi-sided enclosure having an open top, wherein adjacent pairs of said at least three side panels extend substantially perpendicular to one another;
each said side panel bounded by a perimeter defined by a collapsible, coilable frame element; and
each said side panel having a first attachment member supportably connecting each said side panel to said substantially planar base of said seat assembly, wherein each said side panel extends upwardly from said substantially planar base of said tree supported seat assembly.
5. The portable enclosure stated in claim 4 , further comprising:
a plurality of filler panels attached to said plurality of side panels for interconnecting said side panels.
6. The portable enclosure stated in claim 5 , further comprising:
at least two of said plurality of filler panels each having a free end for engagement with said tree trunk.
7. The portable enclosure stated in claim 6 , further comprising:
at least one second attachment member extending between said free ends of said at least two filler panels of said plurality of said filler panels for attaching said at least two filler panels to said tree trunk.
8. The portable enclosure stated in claim 4 , further comprising:
adjoining panels of said plurality of side panels are affixed together proximate a point on said perimeter of each said adjoining panel.
9. The portable enclosure stated in claim 4 , further comprising:
each said perimeter is generally circular.
