ANIMAL FETCH DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

The present invention provides an animal fetch device used for non-damaging play. The device (10) comprises a housing (12) which defines an interior volume (84) and line release guide chamber (86). The housing (12) supports an interior placed spool (46) which is allowed to freely rotate. A first side member (50) of the spool (46) has gear teeth (54) around a circumference which intermesh with matching gear teeth (42) on a crank spur (66) . A crank (20) with handle (38) is inserted onto a first housing opening (28) and connected to the crank spur (66) . A button (30) allows both release and locking of the interior spool (46) through a contact pawl (36). A line (56) is connected to the spool (46) and wound around the axle (48) . The line (56) extends through the line release guide chamber (86) and the housing (12). An attractor (80) is attached to the line (56) through the use of a fused connection attachment.
