Grip with bipod

1. A grip comprising:

at least two hinged monopods, each defining a housing and having an independent telescoping leg telescopingly mounted in one end of said housing, said monopods being arranged to pivot relative to one another from a fastened position to a deployed position, said monopods in the fastened position being joined and secured to one another to form a complete hand grip;

said monopods defining toothed portions at another end of said housing arranged to interleave with one another when said monopods pivot relative to one another; and

a mounting assembly for mounting the grip on a device, said mounting assembly including a hinge holding said toothed portions and forming a pivot axis therefor.

2. The grip of claim 1 , wherein each said independent telescoping leg comprises:

a spring biased leg telescopingly mounted in said housing.

3. The grip of claim 1 , wherein said monopods further comprise locking means for locking said telescoping leg in or out of said housing.

4. The grip according to claim 3 wherein said locking means comprises:

at least two locking grooves in said telescoping leg; and

a spring biased locking member inside said housing selectably engageable in each of said grooves.

5. The grip of claim 1 , wherein said monopods further comprise locking means for locking said telescoping leg at different lengths relative to said housing.

6. The grip of claim 1 , wherein said monopods further comprise fastening means for locking said monopods relative to each other.

7. The grip according to claim 6 , wherein said fastening means comprises a fastening hook on at least one of said telescoping legs engageable inside the housing of another said telescoping leg when said hand grip is formed.

8. The grip according to claim 1 , wherein one side of each interleaved portion of each said monopod is arranged to engage said mounting assembly in said deployed position and a second side of each interleaved portion of each said monopod is arranged to engage said mounting assembly in said fastened position.

9. The grip according to claim 1 , further comprising a fastening hook on at least one of said telescoping legs engageable inside a recess formed in another one of said telescoping legs to form said complete hand grip when said legs are fully inserted into said housings.

10. A method for forming a grip comprising:

forming a mounting assembly including a hinge;

forming at least two hinged monopods, each defining a housing and having an independent telescoping leg telescopingly mounted in one end of said housing, said monopods being arranged to pivot relative to one another from a fastened position to a deployed position, said monopods in the fastened position being joined and secured to one another forming a complete hand grip;

defining toothed portions at another end of said housing arranged to interleave with one another when said monopods pivot relative to one another; and

mounting said hinged monopods on said hinge in said mounting assembly, said hinge holding said toothed portions and forming a pivot axis therefore.

11. The method according to claim 10 , further comprising providing release means on each of said monopods, for independently releasing said telescoping legs from said monopods.

12. The method according to claim 10 , further comprising pivoting said monopods to said fastened position until one side of each interleaved portion of each said monopod engages said mounting assembly, and opening said monopods to said deployed position until a second side of each interleaved portion of each said monopod engages said mounting assembly.

13. The method according to claim 10 , further comprising providing a fastening hook on at least one of said telescoping legs engageable inside a recess formed in another one of said telescoping legs, and forming said complete hand grip by fully inserting said legs into said housings.
