Salt lick block support incorporating a liquid container therein
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[001] The present invention relates generally to hunting equipment but more
particularly to a salt lick block support incorporating a liquid container
therein for putting a liquid based bait.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[002] In order to bait game, hunters often use salt lick blocks. Preferably,
these salt lick blocks should be securedly attached so that they remain
at a known location. Although animals return to the salt lick block when
they have found it, the problem is that it can take a while to find it in the
first place so that a habit is created. There is therefore a need for a way
to help game find the salt lick block in the first place.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
15[003] In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known devices
now present in the prior art, the present invention, which will be
described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide objects and
advantages which are:
[004] To provide for a for a salt lick block base which can be secured to a

CA 02849664 2014-04-24
2
fallen tree or tree stump and that also contains a container which is
designed to contain a smelly substance which attracts game to it.
[005] In order to do so, the invention comprises a main body member having a
hole in a top surface thereof. A hollow central portion adapted to hold a
granular material therein, and a base portion extending outwardly from a
lower section thereof and including a plurality of holes therethrough
adapted to allow fasteners therein to securely hold the salt lick block
support to a chosen surface. A plurality of fasteners adapted to extend
through respective of the plurality of holes and engage the chosen
surface. A removable container adapted to hold a liquid therein, has an
opening in a top portion thereof, and is adapted to fit and be held in
place within the hole in the top surface of the main body member,
wherein the removable container further includes a small aperture in a
bottom surface thereof that is adapted to allow the liquid to pass
therethrough in a drop-by-drop fashion.
[006] In one preferred embodiment, the main body member and the hollow
central portion are formed in a conical shape.
[007] The hole in the top surface of the main body member is formed in a
circular shape; and wherein the removable container is formed in the
shape of an elongated cylinder.

CA 02849664 2014-04-24
3
[008] The removable container further contains an upper rim extending
outwardly from a top portion thereof and is adapted to engage a top
surface rim of the top surface of the main body member, such that the
removable container is held in place therein.
5[009] A liquid is placed within the removable container and the liquid is
chosen
from a group of liquids that have an odor that is adapted to attract
animals.
[0010] A granular material adapted to be placed within the hollow central
portion of the main body member chosen from a group of granular
materials that have an odor that is adapted to attract animals.
[0011] A sponge member adapted to be placed within the hollow central portion
of the main body member wherein the sponge member contains a liquid
substance therein having an odor that is adapted to attract animals.
[0012] The plurality of fasteners are chosen from a group of fasteners
comprising nails, screws, and stakes.
[0013] There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important
features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof
that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present
contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional

CA 02849664 2014-04-24
4
features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will
form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
[0014] In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the
invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited
in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements
of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in
the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of
being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be
understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are
for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
[0015] As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception,
upon
which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the
designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the
several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that
the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions
insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present
invention.
[0016] These together with other objects of the invention, along with the
various
features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with
particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this
disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating

advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference
should be made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter
which contains illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0020] A salt lick block support (10) has a main body member (12) having a
hollow center portion (14) in a top surface (15) thereof, and into which a
removable container (16) can be fitted.
15[0021] The support (10) has a base portion (18) having a plurality of holes
(20)
through which mechanical fasteners such as stakes (26), nails (28), or
screws (30) can be driven.

CA 02849664 2014-04-24
1
[0022] The removable container (16) further contains an upper rim (17)
extending outwardly from a top portion (19) thereof and is adapted to
engage a top surface rim (21) on the top surface (15) of the main body
member (12), such that the removable container (16) is held in place
therein.
[0023] The hollow center portion (14) can be used, as is, to put granules
thereinto, or the removable container (16) can be put in when liquid is
used. The removable container (16) has a small aperture (24) designed
to allow for a liquid to drip drop by drop.
10[0024] Alternatively, a sponge member (34) or an equivalent high absorbency
material can be put inside the hollow center portion (14), The sponge
member (34) (or equivalent) containing a liquid substance, as per the
removable container (16), can be fitted.
[0025] Besides hunters, the block support (10) can also be used by farmers for
their own livestock.
[0026] There are small variations in the embodiments, as shown in figs. 3 to 8
which fall within the scope of a single invention.
[0027] In use, after the support (10) has been secured onto a surface,
granules
or a liquid are put inside the hollow center portion (14). And then, a salt

CA 02849664 2014-04-24
1
lick block (32) having a hollow central shaft is inserted over the main
body member (12). Some types of salt lick blocks (32) are designed with
such a hollow shaft. The bait attracts game by way of releasing specific
aromas that have been shown to attract animals. They can be
pheromone based or simply sweet in fragrance.
[0028] As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the
present invention, the same should be apparent from the above
description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of
usage and operation will be provided.
10[0029] With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that
the
optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to
include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of
operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious
to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those
illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are
intended to be encompassed by the present invention. Therefore, the
foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the
invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will
readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the
invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described,
and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be
resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
