Fish finder device housing and system

摘要

A fish finder device housing having a watertight shell housing capable of containing an electronic load having a transducer within an interior space, the housing have oppositely opposed extension members, each of the extension members having a keel, the oppositely opposed extension members and keels helping maintain the fish finder device housing and contained transducer in a stable condition such as in a substantially upright vertical position and preventing the housing from rocking back-and-forth and rolling side-to-side during normal fishing conditions including choppy or wavy water, when an angler is fishing in a body of water having a current, or when the angler is pulling the fish finder device housing behind a watercraft during trolling. The fish finder device housing may have an aperture in at least one of the extension members for connecting a fishing line, such as that of a fishing pole, or a line for tethering the fish finder device housing behind a watercraft.

主权项

1. A fish finder device housing comprising:
an upper shell operably connected to a lower shell providing a watertight shell housing, a horizontal plane corresponding to the perimeter where the upper and lower shells are operably connected, the watertight shell housing defining an interior area containing an electronic load having a transducer within the interior area of the watertight shell housing; the upper shell having a body portion, a first extension member having a first length, and a second extension member having a second length, wherein the first and second extension members proximately connected to opposing sides of the body portion and extending away from the body portion, and wherein the first and second extension members have a top surface and a bottom surface; a first keel located on the bottom surface of the first extension member; and a second keel located on the bottom surface of the second extension member; wherein the first and second keels are substantially located in a first vertical plane perpendicular to the first horizontal plane.
