Abstract:
A new concept and invention for converting the conventional flying wing decoy into a different species/gender/genome. The system would use a decoy currently on the market and convert the product from the species that it represents to a different species/gender/or genome that the hunter is in pursuit of on that particular hunt. For example, a flying dove decoy can be converted to a duck of several different types, and a flying duck decoy can be converted to a squirrel or other ground dwelling animal. This allows the sportsman to use one single motorized system to create different decoy animals and species.

     TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The invention relates to the field of hunting decoys. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The invention provides enhanced versatility and cost-effectiveness over current flying duck decoys, dove decoys, and varmint decoys. The present invention allows the imitation of various species of game as well as gender of game. Each one of these decoys facilitates similar drive motors that drive a set of wings or appendages meant to match the species of decoy that is being displayed, mounted or used. 
     Current decoys that are available today are extremely bulky and the price points of these decoys range by as much as 120% more for a larger species with a similar motor than the smaller species that the same manufacturers offer. The current manufacturers of decoys also only offer a couple of different species of water fowl and varmint and those species of waterfowl and varmint are not always what the hunter is trying to attract. 
     Research of the prior art returned some results for ways to improve the way a sitting or standing decoy look in the field by either dressing up the decoy or putting the decoy in a different position using the molding or print. For example, one reference shows a duck that can be made to float, stand, or be put in the feeding position by the way the decoy is folded and set up. None of the current applications, however, address changing a decoy body or motorized mechanism into a completely different animal, species or gender nor do any of the current applications address or attempt to modify the moving wing decoy to create several different species or gender of decoys using the same internal motorized components. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention supports the versatile conversion of the conventional motorized flying wing decoy into different gender, species or genome of decoys while conserving resources such as the internal workings, motors or bare decoy. The invention uses a decoy, bare workings or motor so it can be converted to a different gender, species or genome that the hunter is in pursuit of on that particular hunt. The invention utilizes a cover that is fitted and formed with addition of fasteners and holes so that the cover will fit securely over the owners existing flying decoy, bare workings or motor. 
     The system also utilizes an appendage/attachment or appendage set that can be attached to the owner&#39;s original motorized decoy to match the gender, species or genome that the sportsman is trying to attract or imitate. The cover and attachments would preferably be a flexible water proof plastic printed with photo/graphic design art. In essence, the system can convert a flying dove decoy to a duck of several different types or convert a flying duck decoy to a rabbit or rodent of several different types. This allows the sportsman to use one single motorized system or bare decoy to hunt whatever game he is after without having to purchase several different motorized decoys that cost a lot of money and take up more cargo space. Enhanced versatility and cost effectiveness is achieved by conservation of decoy resources.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     The system of the invention utilizes a single decoy, preferably a small dove decoy, and simply changes the gender, species or genome to a dove, duck, goose or varmint prey by providing a low cost wrap around cover and attachment (e.g. wing or appendage) to simulate the waterfowl game or predator you are after. 
     This invention has the intent to improve on a product that is currently on the market and make it into a transformable type decoy that can be used for many different types of game using the motor drive from the decoy currently on the market. 
     A system that improves and/or reconfigures a conventional motorized hunting decoy is disclosed. The system is preferably used like a kit to alter a conventional motorized decoy used for hunting. By altering the original decoy, the user can create various decoys that differ in size, gender, species or genome. This allows the user to use the original decoy and adapt it to the species or game that the user is trying to decoy. The device also provides the user with a cost effective way to hunt various species or game as it keeps the user from having to purchase a decoy for every desired species. 
     This invention will result in the ability of the sportsman or user to purchase inexpensive covers imitating the game or prey they intend to replicate without having to purchase a motor every time they get a different decoy. They simply need one motorized decoy currently on the market and then wrap it with the art cover and attachments of their choice. 
     Previously, if the user wanted to hunt dove, duck, and varmint, the user would be required to purchase a separate decoy for each species. Good hunting decoys can cost hundreds of dollars, which can be very hindering to a user that hunts various species of animals. The disclosed invention allows the user to purchase a single motorized decoy and alter it with an inexpensive kit-like system instead of having to purchase multiple expensive decoys, thus one motorized decoy takes the place of 2 or more decoys. The invention is also advantageous as it allows the user to mix and match covers and attachments providing many combinations thereof to create the ideal decoy for that particular hunt. 
     Because the covers and attachments are smaller and lighter than a decoy of the same, the invention also allows for easier transport of multiple decoy gender, species or genome as the user only has to carry one decoy with one or more covers and attachments compared to carrying two or more decoys or returning to base camp every time the user wants to exchange the decoy being used. This is also advantageous in providing the user the ability to change the decoy when desired, wherever desired. 
     For example, if a user wanted to go duck hunting and only had a motorized dove decoy, the user would take the motorized dove decoy and modify it with a duck cover and duck wing attachments that the invention provides. In addition, if the user wanted to go dove and duck hunting, he/she could use the single decoy and modify the decoy as desired while out in the field and not have to carry around two separate decoys. 
     The device has a cover portion that is adapted to wrap the original decoy in a predesigned cover and/or alter the body of the original decoy. The device also utilizes the motor of the original decoy and employs various attachments to the motor for life-like movement of the newly created size, gender, species or genome. 
     Referring to  FIG. 1 , a top view of an embodiment of the disclosed device is shown applied to a conventional motorized hunting decoy. Most conventional motorized hunting decoys comprise a body  104  having a decoy head  145 , decoy middle  143  and decoy tail  147 , a motor  102  within the decoy middle  143 , and attachments that are connected to the motor  102 . The motor  102  can be battery powered, wind powered or other forms of motorized units used in conventional decoys. Before implementing the device, the original attachments on the decoy need to be removed by disconnecting them from the motor. The device comprises a cover portion  103 , wing attachments  106  and  107  and attachment covers  161 . 
     The cover portion  103  has a cover head  155 , cover middle  153  and a cover tail  157 . The cover portion  103 , having a decorated outer surface and a non-decorated inner surface, is attached to the decoy body  104  by substantially wrapping the cover portion  103  around the decoy body  104  with the decorated outer surface of cover portion  103  facing away from the decoy body  104 . When wrapping the cover portion  103  around decoy body  104 , the cover head  155  is approximate the decoy head  145 , the cover middle  153  is approximate the decoy middle  143  and cover tail  157  is approximate decoy tail  147  to provide a better fit. 
     Cover portion  103  comprises fasteners (best illustrated in  FIG. 3 ) that are used to secure to corresponding fasteners on cover portion  103 , which when fastened, keep cover portion  103  secured and wrapped around decoy body  104 . Various fastener types may be used, for example, hooks, buttons, clasps, VELCRO® hook/loop straps or other mechanisms that provide a way for the cover to be removably secured to the decoy body. 
     By substantially covering the existing decoy body, the original decoy takes on a new appearance of the animal the user desires to attract or decoy. This allows the original decoy body to purpose as various decoys and not only the decoy for which it was designed. For example, the decoy may be a dove decoy with the covers and attachments modifying the dove decoy to resemble a duck or goose. 
     Wing attachments  106  and  107  comprise an attachment connector  120  and are adapted to secure to a motor connector  121  on motor  102 . The cover portion  103  further defines attachment holes  131   a  and  131   b  that are specifically located to allow the attachment connector  120  of wing attachments  106  and  107  to insert through attachment holes  131   a  and  131   b  of cover portion  103  and be secured to motor  102 . 
     To employ the attachments, an attachment connector  120  of wing attachment  106  is inserted through hole  131   a  in the cover portion and secured to the motor connector  121  on the motor  102  of the original decoy. The previous step is repeated for the other wing attachment  107 , inserting the attachment connector  120  through hole  131   b  and securing it to another motor connector  121  on the motor  102  of the original decoy. The cover portion  103  may need to be adjusted prior to applying the wing attachments  106  and  107  to make sure attachment holes  131   a  and  131   b  are aligned with the motor connectors  121 . 
     Motor connector  121  engages the attachment connector  120  to secure the wing attachment  106  and  107  to motor  102 . The attachment connector and motor connector may be a nut and bolt combination, magnets, a screw-insert combination, a snap or any other form of connector that maintains the attachment secured to the motor. 
     Wing attachments  106  and  107  may further comprise an attachment cover  161 . The attachment cover is secured to the wing attachments  106  and  107  by way of fasteners, tie strings or other forms known in the art that keep the attachment cover  161  from being accidentally removed. 
     Alternatively, the attachment cover may be fabricated to be permanently secured to the wing attachment (e.g. form molding or adhesive) or may be integrally fabricated with the wing attachment (i.e. a single structure) and provided to the user as various pre-prepared attachments. This may be more beneficial to those who find it easier to exchange the whole attachment than just the attachment cover. 
     Cover portion  103  may also define a gap between fasteners that allows a support pole or stake (not shown, see  FIG. 2 ) to be secured to the decoy body for stability. The support pole or stake is commonly found in the decoy market to provide the decoy with stability, height off the ground and/or an anchor to the ground. 
     By employing different cover portions and/or wing attachments, the user can better match the particular bird desired to be hunted or decoyed and can be done quickly and easily on the spot. The cover portion material is preferably made of a bendable plastic, waterproof material or waterproofed material that can withstand outdoor elements. Other materials may be used like wood, foam, composites and the like as long as the material can withstand outdoor elements.

Cover feet  249  reside along the bottom of the covered decoy when the covered decoy is in an upright position. 
     Cover portion  203  comprises various fasteners along a first edge  235   a  ( 230   a ,  232   a ,  234   a ,  236   a  and  238   a ) and a second edge  235   b  ( 230   b ,  232   b ,  234   b ,  236   b  and  238   b ). Fasteners  230   a  and  230   b  secure to one another to keep the cover head  255  in place around decoy head  245 . Fasteners  232   a ,  234   a  and  236   a  secure to fasteners  232   b ,  234   b  and  236   b  to keep the cover middle  253  in place around decoy middle  243 . Fasteners  238   a  and  238   b  secure to one another to keep the cover tail  257  in place around decoy tail  247 . Various fastener types may be used, for example, hooks, buttons, clasps, VELCRO® hook/loop straps or other mechanisms that provide a way for the cover to be removably secured to the decoy body. 
     By substantially covering the existing decoy body, the original decoy takes on a new appearance of the animal the user desires to attract or decoy. This allows the original decoy body to purpose as various decoys and not only the decoy for which it was designed. For example, the decoy may be a dove decoy with the covers and attachments modifying the dove decoy to resemble a duck or goose. 
     Wing attachments  206  and  207  comprise an attachment connector  220  and are adapted to secure to a motor connector  221  on motor  202 . The cover portion  203  further defines attachment holes  231   a  and  231   b  that are specifically located to allow the attachment connector  220  of wing attachments  206  and  207  to insert through attachment holes  231   a  and  231   b  of cover portion  203  and be secured to motor  202 . 
     To employ the attachments, an attachment connector  220  of wing attachment  206  is inserted through hole  231   a  (not shown) in the cover portion and secured to the motor connector  221  on the motor  202  of the original decoy. The previous step is repeated for the other wing attachment  207 , inserting the attachment connector  220  through hole  231   b  and securing it to another motor connector  221  on the motor  202  of the original decoy. The cover portion  203  may need to be adjusted prior to applying the wing attachments  206  and  207  to make sure attachment holes  231   a  and  231   b  are aligned with the motor connectors  221 . 
     Cover portion  203  also defines a gap between fastener combinations  234   a - 234   b  and  236   a - 236   b  that allows a support pole or stake  290  to be secured to the decoy body  204  for stability. The support pole or stake is commonly found in the decoy market to provide the decoy with stability, height off the ground and/or an anchor to the ground.
