Abstract
A duck call or game call that can provide several different species of waterfowl sounds contained in one individual game call. The call consists of four main parts; the head, body, reed assembly, and the tail. The head assembly rotates either clockwise or counter clockwise to align the head with appropriate chamber in the body to produce the users desired waterfowl sound. The reed assembly can be changed out to produce the waterfowl sounds desired by the user for his/her area.
Claims
1. A waterfowl call configured with but not limited to the ability to create four (4) unique waterfowl sounds, contained in one housing, by means of rotating one or more parts, clockwise or counter clockwise, in which a mechanical stop aligns an airway with different chambers to provide different waterfowl sounds and can be interchangeable to contain desired species of waterfowl.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0037] While this invention is susceptible in many different forms, there are shown in the drawings and will be described herein in detail specific embodiments thereof with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention to specific embodiments illustrated.
[0038] As described herein, the embodiments of the subject invention are directed to a waterfowl call that can produce multiple species of waterfowl sounds. According to such embodiments, the waterfowl call can accommodate up to four different species of waterfowl thus eliminating the need for an exemplary amount of traditional, single specie waterfowl calls.
[0039] With reference now to the figures, FIG. 1-4 illustrates different views of the head section 10. The head section 10 is best described as the section in which air enters and is distributed to the desired location. As shown in FIG. 2, the air is channeled to one location thus allowing air flow to enter only one chamber of the body 12. This action prevents any unwanted sounds to created from any other chambers in the body 12.
[0040] FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrates the head section 10 and the fastener 18. The fastener 18 is bonded to the head section 10. The fastener 18 will be utilized to hold tension between the remainder of the parts.
[0041] FIG. 7-10 illustrates the different views of the body 12. The body 12 is best described as the portion of the call in which contains the reed body 28. The reed body 28 is inserted to the body 12 which allows for case of changing or modifying the reeds 26. The mechanical alignment stops 24 located on the body 12 aligns the head section 10 with the appropriate chambers once the reed assembly 14 is inserted into the body 12.
[0042] FIG. 11-14 illustrates the different views of the reed assembly 14. The reed assembly 14 contains the chambers in which the reed 26, reed body 28, and the reed retention 30 are assembled and installed in each of the chambers.
[0043] FIG. 15-19 illustrates the different views of the tail 16. The tail 16 is inserted into the end of the body 12 and is held in place with the use of a gasket 32. The tail 16 is best described as where the desired sound exits the waterfowl call.
[0044] FIG. 20-22 illustrates the assembled waterfowl call as a whole. Beginning with FIG. 20, the head 10, with the fastener 18 attached, is fed through the body 12 and the reed assembly 14. The tension mechanism 20 is then placed on the fastener 18 and then the retention fastener 22. This allows for parts to stay together as well as allows for tension to be present when rotating the head 10 to the desired chamber to produce the desired waterfowl sound. FIGS. 21 and 22 illustrates different views of the waterfowl call once the tail 16 is installed.
[0045] FIG. 23 is a diagram that shows all entities and how they are put together.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0046] Once the waterfowl call is put together, desired reeds 26 chosen and put in the reed assembly 14, the user is able to simply rotate the head 10 while holding the body 12 to allow for the proper chamber to align with assistance from the mechanical alignment stops 24 which will provide the desired sound to prevail to attract waterfowl. The reed assembly 14 can easily be changed out to provide different reeds 26 for different waterfowl applications.
