Retractable deer stand ladder system

摘要

A retractable deer stand ladder system for providing a ladder that is efficiently concealed from wildlife. The retractable deer stand ladder system generally includes a support member having an elongated structure, an upper end and a lower end, a plurality of first steps pivotally attached to a first side of the support member, and a plurality of second steps pivotally attached to a second side of the support member. The first steps and the second steps each have an extended state where the steps extend outwardly from the support member for a user to climb upon. The first steps and the second steps also have a refracted state where the steps extend substantially parallel with respect to the support member for concealment.

1. A retractable ladder, comprising:
a support member having an elongated structure, an upper end and a lower end; a plurality of first steps pivotally attached to a first side of said support member, wherein said plurality of first steps include a corresponding plurality of first camouflage portions attached to a lower surface of said plurality of first steps; a plurality of second steps pivotally attached to a second side of said support member, wherein said first side of said support member is opposite of said second side, wherein said plurality of second steps include a corresponding plurality of second camouflage portions attached to a lower surface of said plurality of second steps; wherein said plurality of first steps and said plurality of second steps include an extended state for allowing a user to climb upon said steps and a retracted state to at least partially conceal said steps, wherein said plurality of first steps extend away from said plurality of second steps and wherein said plurality of second steps extend away from said plurality of first steps when in said extended state; wherein said support member, said plurality of first steps and said plurality of second steps form a vertical compact structure when in said retracted state; wherein said support member, said plurality of first steps and said plurality of second steps do not form a vertical compact structure when in said extended state; a plurality of first brackets attached to said support member, wherein each of said plurality of first steps are pivotally attached to a corresponding first bracket of said plurality of first brackets, and a plurality of second brackets attached to said support member, wherein each of said plurality of second steps are pivotally attached to a corresponding second bracket of said plurality of second brackets; and a first connector that is elongated and a second connector that is elongated, wherein said first connector is attached to distal portions of said plurality of first steps and wherein said second connector is attached to distal portions of said plurality of second steps, and wherein said first connector and said second connector allow a user to pull upwardly upon the connectors thereby placing said steps in said retracted state; wherein said first connector and said second connector are each comprised of a rigid material; wherein said first connector extends upwardly above an uppermost step of said plurality of first steps a sufficient distance for a user to grasp said first connector to pull upwardly; wherein said second connector extends upwardly above an uppermost step of said plurality of second steps a sufficient distance for a user to grasp said second connector to pull upwardly; and a first handle attached to an upper portion of said first connector and a second handle attached to an upper portion of said second connector.
