Abstract:
The present invention relates a carabiner system including a frame and a gate. The frame includes an opening between a pivot region and a keyed region. The keyed region of the frame may be hookless. The gate is pivotably coupled to the frame across the opening to form a continuously enclosed inner region in the closed configuration. The gate is also pivotably coupled about the pivot region of the frame forming a gap between the gate and frame in an open configuration. The gate further includes a key-lock region, a gate region, and an attachment region which are integrally formed together without any type of coupling between regions. The gate region includes a plurality of elongated members between the key-lock region and attachment region. The plurality of elongated members may include non-circular cross sections and varying thicknesses and tolerances designed to optimize functionality, weight, and appearance.

Claim (Index 19):
A carabiner system comprising:\n a frame including an opening between a pivot region and a keyed region; a gate pivotably coupled to the frame across the opening, wherein the gate and frame form a continuously enclosed inner region in a closed configuration, and wherein the gate is pivotably rotated about the pivot region forming a gap between the gate and frame in the open configuration, and wherein the gate further includes a key-lock region, a gate region, and an attachment region; a gate biasing system between the pivot region of the frame and the attachment region of the gate, wherein the gate biasing system biases the key-lock region of the gate toward the keyed region of the frame and the closed configuration; wherein the closed configuration includes a coupling between the key-lock region of the gate and the keyed region of the frame in the closed configuration; wherein the gate region of the gate includes a plurality of independent elongated members extending between the key-lock region and the attachment region; wherein the attachment region is pivotably coupled to the pivot region of the frame in both the open and closed configurations; wherein the key-lock region includes a partially enclosed concave region corresponding in shape to the keyed region of the frame, and wherein the key-lock region is hookless; and wherein the key-lock region, gate region, and attachment region of the gate are integral and molded.
