Portable doorway recreation apparatus

1. A portable doorway recreation device for use on a doorway frame comprising:

an L-shaped frame;

a first horizontal elongate bar attached to a riser of the L-shaped frame;

a second horizontal elongate bar attached to a base of the L-shaped frame;

a securing member operatively associated with the second elongate bar, wherein with the first elongate bar resting on top of the doorway frame on a first wall side and the second elongate bar operatively associated with a second wall side parallel to the first wall side, the securing member is configured to engage one of the first and second wall sides to prevent movement of the second elongate bar away from the second wall side.

2. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises a locking bar in contact with the first wall side, the locking bar attached to the second elongate bar by at least one telescoping strut.

3. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises a pad pivotably attached to the base of the L-shaped frame for contact with the second wall side.

4. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 3 , wherein pivoting the pad upward against the second wall side receives a portion of the wall between the pad and the first elongate bar.

5. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 4 , wherein the securing member further comprises a strut at one end pivotably attached to the base of the L-shaped frame and at a second end attached to the pad and at least one turnbuckle operatively connecting the base of the L-shaped frame to the strut, whereby tightening the turnbuckle pivots the pad against the second wall side.

6. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises a locking bar attached to the base of the L-shaped frame configured to contact the second wall side.

7. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 6 , wherein the locking bar is configured to contact the second wall side opposite the first horizontal elongate bar, the locking bar further comprising means for applying a squeezing force on a portion of the wall received between the first horizontal elongate bar and locking bar.

8. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 7 , wherein means for squeezing comprises a screw operatively associated with a twistable knob, the screw comprising the base of the L-shaped frame, whereby twisting of the knob a first direction moves the locking bar closer to the first elongate bar and twisting the knob a second direction moves the locking bar away from the first elongate bar.

9. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the second horizontal elongate bar further comprises grips.

10. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the base end of the L-shaped frame further comprises grips.

11. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the second horizontal elongate bar further comprises at least one hinge operatively connected to a swing for supporting an angular momentum of the swing at a radius from the second horizontal elongate bar.

12. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the second horizontal elongate bar further comprises a pad at each end in contact with the second wall side.

13. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the securing member further comprises padded ends at each end in contact with one of the first and second wall sides.

14. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , further comprising a pair of spaced L-shaped frames, the first horizontal elongate bar attached to the riser of each L-shaped frame, the second horizontal elongate bar attached to the base of each L-shaped frame, and the securing member operatively associated with the second elongate bar.

15. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises a pair of vice clamps at either end of the second elongate bar, the vice clamps configured to receive a portion of the first and second wall sides.

16. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 15 , wherein the portion of the first wall side received by the vice clamp comprises an inner ridge of a doorframe having a surface opposing the second wall side.

17. The portable doorway recreation device of claim 15 wherein the second elongate horizontal bar is operatively associated with the vice clamps in a manner wherein the vice clamps are in direct physical contact with the second wall side.

18. A method of attaching a portable doorway recreation device to a doorway frame, the portable doorway device comprising an L-shaped frame, a first horizontal elongate bar attached to a riser of the L-shaped frame, a second horizontal elongate bar attached to a base of the L-shaped frame, and a securing member operatively associated with the second elongate bar, the method comprising:

resting the first horizontal elongate bar on top of the doorway frame on a first wall side;

operatively associating the second horizontal elongate bar with a second wall side parallel to the first wall side;

and forcibly engaging the securing member into contact with one of the first and second wall sides to prevent movement of the second elongate bar away from the second wall side.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein means for forcibly engaging the securing member into contact with one of the first and second wall sides comprises clamping a portion of the wall from the first and second wall sides.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein the clamped portion of the first wall side comprises an inner ridge of a doorframe having a surface opposing the second wall side.
