An autonomously adjustable lip device for use in a lureTechnical fieldThe present disclosure relates to an autonomously adjustable lip device for use in a lure for altering the lure configuration which provides different depths and pattern of travel of the lure. More specifically, the disclosure relates to an autonomously adjustable lip device for use in a lure for altering the lure configuration which provides different depths and pattern of travel of the lure as defined in the introductory parts of and claim 1.Background artA problem with the solutions of the prior art is that a lure is designed for fishing at a predefined water depth, and if the fisherman needs to alter the depth he needs to change lure, or alter the speed at which the lure is pulled through the water. Alternatively there is some lure manufacturers that provides for changing lip in a lure, such that the same lure may be configured for various depths by changing the lip to a different one having a different size, form, angle of attach a.o. A further lure manufacturer has come up with the solution of providing a lip configuration that can change the angle of attack by the fisherman between fishing sessions.None of the lures may change the lip configuration in situ. There is thus a need for improved lure lip design.In US 10028492 B2 it is shown a lure having an automatic depth-control mechanism that acquires and maintains a constant depth when pulled through a medium such as water.In JP 2004275157 A it is shown a lure able to can swing irregularly and fascinatingly by adding the yawing and the rolling swing of different cycles to the lure.SummaryIt is an object of the present disclosure to mitigate, alleviate or eliminate one or more of the above-identified deficiencies and disadvantages in the prior art and solve at least the above mentioned problem. According to a first aspect there is provided an autonomously adjustable lip device for use in a lure for altering the lure configuration which provides different depths and pattern of travel of the lure, wherein the adjustable lip device is connected to the lure via lip connectors, the adjustable lip device comprising: a lip activator for changing the lip angel of attack, the lip activator being connected to the lip via a lip connecting device and the lip activator being sensitive to the lure speed through water, the lip activator having a passive state and an active state wherein the passive state corresponds to a first lip configuration, and the active state corresponds to a second lip configuration.There is thus provided a lure that can change its configuration simply by altering the speed through water. The changed state of the lure lip enables the lure to be configured for more than one depth.According to some embodiments, the lip activator changing from the passive state to the active state by increasing the lure speed through water above a lip activator threshold specified by the lip configuration.The fisherman need only to increase the speed of the lure to change from a passive state to an active state, and thereby decrease the depth at which the lure travel through water.According to some embodiments, the lip activator changing from the active state to the passive state by decreasing the lure speed through water below a lip activator threshold specified by the lip configuration.The lip may thus be configured to change back to its original passive state and the lure is configured to travel at its original depth.According to some embodiments the lip activator changes between the passive state and the active state dependent on the lure speed through water.The lure then may have a more dynamic changing lip configuration, depending on the speed through water.According to some embodiments the lip activator changes between the passive state and the active state dependent on the lure speed through water, and the lip activator comprise an activation delay device causing the lip activator action to be delayed in one or both of changing from the passive state to the active state, or from the active state to the passive state. According to some embodiments, the lip activator is a resilient connector, such that the resilient connector causes the lip to bend in accordance with the lure speed through water.According to some embodiments, the lip activator is a pressure sensitive snap disc connector which when activated stays in the active state for as long as pressure by is maintained in accordance with the lure speed through water and when pressure is lowered holds an active state for a period of time in accordance with the snap disc configuration, and then snaps back to the passive state.According to some embodiments, when the snap disc snaps back to the passive state the snap action transfers into an alteration of the lure movement pattern.According to some embodiments, the lip activator is a hydraulically attenuated damper which changes from passive state to active state and stays in active state when the lure speed through water reaches above a threshold value, and changes with delayed action back from active state to passive state when the lure speed through water first changes below the threshold value.According to some embodiments, the lip activator changes from passive state to active state and stays in active state when the lure speed through water reaches above a threshold value, and changes back from active state to passive state and stays in passive state when the lure speed through water first changes below the threshold value and then increase above the threshold value.According to some embodiments, the lure runs at a configurable depth when lip activator is in the passive state, and the lure runs at a configurable shallower depth when lip activator is in the active state.The lure thus may be configured for a variety of alterable movement through water characteristics, and a solution to the above stated problems is solved.According to some embodiments, the lip connecting device is arranged inside the lure, and is one of: - an action rod - a first pivot arm, and a second pivot arm, wherein the pivot arms rotate around a pivot point and the distal end of the first pivot arm is connected to the lip base, and the and the lip activator being connected to one of: o the front of the second pivot arm o the back of the second pivot arm o the front of the first pivot arm o the back of the first pivot arm o the pivot point According to some embodiments, the lip connecting device and the lip activator is arranged partly or completely on the outside of the lure.According to some embodiments the lip activator is a spring device arranged in one or more of the lip connectors.The present disclosure will become apparent from the detailed description given below.

Figure 1 shows a side view of a prior art lure having a static lure lip configuration.Figure 2A and B show a side view according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 3A and B show a side view according to a further embodiment of the present invention.Figure 4A and B show a side view according to a further embodiment of the present invention.Figure 5A and B show a side view according to two further embodiments of the present invention.Figure 6A show a bottom side view according to a further embodiment of the present invention.Figure 6B and C show a side view according to two further embodiments of the present invention.Figure 6D show a bottom side view according to a further embodiment of the present invention from figure 6B or C.Figure 7A – E illustrates different activation configurations relative speed through water of the present invention.Detailed descriptionThe present disclosure will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which preferred example embodiments of the disclosure are shown. The disclosure may, however, be embodied in other forms and should not be construed as limited to the herein disclosed embodiments. The disclosed embodiments are provided to fully convey the scope of the disclosure to the skilled person.Figure 1 shows a typical lure 1 of prior art, having a fixed lip/bib 2 for a predefined lure path/depth through water when attached to a fish line 39 and pulled through water. A lure will have hook attachment devices 12, 13, and weight/floats 14, and this is the same for the lures of present invention, but for simplicity these are not included in the simplified sketches of embodiments discussed. The fishing of lures according to prior art are predefined to follow the characteristics defined at production. Some lures has been provided to comprise the possibility to change li configuration between fishing sessions which to a small degree enables the fisherman to alter the configuration of his lure.It is an objective of present invention to provide a wobbler/lure that provides the fisherman with more ways to use the bait, more flexibility and new patterns of movement.A lure designed in accordance with present invention will be able to cover the work areas for both shallow diver and surface lure whenever the fisherman wants to alter the configuration ,in situ, meaning the solution may be built into a shallow diver and by activation the lure is altered to a surface lure, or for example a deep diver is reconfigured in situ to a shallow diver, wherein an activation feature is built into a deep diver and is activated by the fisherman upon lure draw pattern, or by the lure for example hitting an obstacle such as a the bottom.The first aspect of this disclosure shows an autonomously adjustable lip device 3 for use in a lure 10 for altering the lure configuration which provides different depths and pattern of travel of the lure, wherein the adjustable lip device 3 is connected to the lure 10 via lip connectors 22, the adjustable lip device 3 comprising: a lip activator 6 for changing the lip angel of attack to an angle of, or between, a first passive angle 20 and a second active angle 20’, the lip activator 6 being connected to the lip via a lip connecting device 7,7’, 7’’,8 and the lip activator 6 being sensitive to the lure speed through water 21, the lip activator 6 having a passive state 3,4 and an active state 3’,4 wherein the passive state corresponds to a first lip configuration, and the active state corresponds to a second lip configuration.One such is shown in figure 2B, where the lip activator may in its simplest form be an elastic strip bound to the lip via a connecting point 7’’ at its first end, and to the lure eye/swivel 11 at the second end. When pulled through the water the angle of attach of the water will force the lip backwards, and at a certain point the lure will alter its depth characteristics. The higher the angle of attach 20, 20’ the lip has the shallower the lure path through water.Figures 2 – 6 describes variations of the lip activator 6.Examples in the figures illustrates the lip activator in the form of:- fig.2B : spring/elastic band in front of lip see operation pattern fig.7B- fig.3A: spring/damper inside lure - fig, 3B: damper/switch- fig.4A/B: snap disc/delayed tension device see operation pattern fig.7C- fig.5A: resilient spring- fig.5B: click device on/off see operation pattern fig.7D- fig, 6B: lever device inside lure connected to lip, activator connected to front of upper part of lever device.- fig, 6B: lever device inside lure connected to lip, activator connected to backside of upper part of lever device.The lip activator 6 may in an embodiment change from the passive state 3, 4 to the active state 3’, 4 by increasing the lure speed through water above a lip activator threshold 30 specified by the lip configuration.Further, the lip activator 6 may in another embodiment change from the active state 3’, 4 to the passive state 3, 4 by decreasing the lure speed through water below a lip activator threshold 31 specified by the lip configuration.The active state corresponds to a shallower depth path of the lure, while the passive state corresponds to a deeper depth path of the lure, whilst it is pulled through the water.The lip activator 6 may also in a further embodiment change between the passive state 3,4 and the active state 3’,4 dependent on the lure speed through water.In one embodiment the lure lip is configured such that activation is done by the fisherman "jerking" the bait (beating with a rod tip) and the water pressure on the diving lip exceeds the force needed to change the angle of it. Deactivation may be by a simple return by reducing the increased water pressure. The resulting effect may be as exemplified in the graph in figure 7E, that the lure may be repeatedly “jerked” from a deeper path up to the surface, and when fisherman stops the repeating “jerks”, the lure returns tot the depth as defined by the lip that has returned to a passive state position.The lip activator 6 may also in a further embodiment change between the passive state and the active state dependent on the lure speed through water, and the lip activator comprise an activation delay device 15 causing the lip activator action to be delayed 32 in one or both of changing from the passive state to the active state, or from the active state to the passive state. In a further embodiment the lip activator 6 may also be a resilient connector, such that the resilient connector causes the lip to bend in accordance with the lure speed through water.In a further embodiment the lip activator 6,15 may also be a pressure sensitive snap disc connector which when activated stays in the active state for as long as pressure by is maintained in accordance with the lure speed through water and when pressure is lowered holds an active state for a period of time in accordance with the snap disc configuration, and then snaps back to the passive state.The snap disc may in one embodiment when it snaps back to the passive state the snap action transfers into an alteration of the lure movement pattern. This is meant to provide an unexpected movement of the lure.Activation and deactivation of the lip activator 6,15 may also be arranged to provide a sound and/or vibration effects when the lip activator 6,15 changes state/angle. This may be designed to push water and/or air out of a chamber (not shown) provided in/on the lure. This may provide an effect for example such as the lure that hangs still in water suddenly shakes and/or outputs a sound and/or air bubbles, when the lip activator 6,15 change state.In a further embodiment the lip activator 6 may be a hydraulically attenuated damper which changes from passive state to active state and stays in active state when the lure speed through water reaches above a threshold value, and changes with delayed action back from active state to passive state when the lure speed through water first changes below the threshold value.In a further embodiment the lip activator 6 changes from passive state to active state and stays in active state when the lure speed through water reaches above a threshold value, and changes back from active state to passive state and stays in passive state when the lure speed through water first changes below the threshold value and then increase above the threshold value.In a further embodiment the lure runs at a configurable depth when lip activator is in the passive state, and the lure runs at a configurable shallower depth when lip activator is in the active state.In a further embodiment the lip connecting device 7,7’,8 is arranged inside the lure, and is one of: - an action rod 7- a first pivot arm 7, and a second pivot arm 7’, wherein the pivot arms rotate around a pivot point 8 and the distal end of the first pivot arm 7 is connected to the lip base, and the and the lip activator 6 being connected to one of:o the front of the second pivot arm 7’o the back of the second pivot arm 7’o the front of the first pivot arm 7o the back of the first pivot arm 7o the pivot point8In a further embodiment the lip connecting device 7,7’,8 and the lip activator 6 is arranged partly or completely on the outside of the lure.In a further embodiment the lip activator 6 is a spring device arranged in one or more of the lip connectors 22.An embodiment of the present invention is illustrated i figure 6B, 6C and 6D. The pivot arm may for example be a composed of a pivot device such as a pivot arm or a gear disc pivoting around a pivot point inside the lure. The pivot device may be arranged in a slot 23 provided for the pivot device and arranged to pivot around a pivot point 8 arranged inside the slot 23. The pivot device is connected on a first side to the base side of the lip 3 via a lip connector 7’’’ which will when the lip 3 rotates around its connection point 22 of the lip rotate the pivot device. The pivot device is connected on a second side to the lip activator 6 which will when the lip 3 rotates around its connection point 22 of the lip and rotate the pivot device also activate the lip activator 6. The lip activator 6 is advantageously arranged inside the lure, or in the slot 23.The lip activator 6 may be one of, but not limited by: air/fluid damped cylinder, spring, resilient member/rubber string/strips/rope/band, jumping disc of plastic/metal/composite material, combined switching device for switching between active and passive state, and the lip activator 6 may be connected directly to the lip, the base of the lip or the front of the lip, and the connection may be direct in a connecting point, or via a connecting device.The lip activator 6 may be arranged on or inside the lure, and when inside the connection device 7, 7’ typically have one portion outside the lure connecting to the lip 3, an done portion inside the lure. In one embodiment as illustrated in figure 6A the connection device 7 is arranged to pass through a conduit 9’ arranged from a forward positron of the underside of the lure to the lip activator 6 inside the lure.In figure 7A a lip activator 6 has a predefined HI and LO threshold wherein the lip is in a passive state until the lure accelerates to a speed through water greater than HI, and then changes to an active state, and the lip changes back to passive state only when the speed through water falls below LO.In figure 7B the activation is more directly related to the speed through water, and the state changes to an active state when the speed through water is above a LIMIT, and returns to or stays at passive states when the speed through water falls below LIMIT.A third scenario in figure 7C describes one example of delayed feature, where the state changes to an active state when the speed through water is above a LIMIT, and returns to passive states after a time delay after the speed through water falls below LIMIT. The delay may be on the rising flank of speed through water or delay may be provided on both rising and descending flank of speed through water. These delay mechanisms may also be provided where the lip activator 6 operates with HI and LO thresholds as discussed above.A further scenario in figure 7D describes one example where the state changes to an active state when the speed through water is above a LIMIT or HI, and returns to passive states after the speed through water first falls below LIMIT or LO and then increases above LIMIT or HI, much like a pen click-on-off feature. Delay mechanisms as discussed above may also be provided when operating on theses flanks of speed through water.The scenario from figure 7E is discussed above, and also this feature may be provided to operate according to the HI/LO limits and the delay options on the rising and/or descending flank of seed through water.The person skilled in the art realizes that the present disclosure is not limited to the preferred embodiments described above. The person skilled in the art further realizes that modifications and variations are possible within the scope of the appended claims. For example, lip activator 6 may be implemented by arranging a spring in the connection point 22 of the lip 3 or of the pivot point 8 of lever device, giving the lip a resilient behavior and a movement pattern between passive and active state. Additionally, variations to the disclosed embodiments can be understood and effected by the skilled person in practicing the claimed disclosure, from a study of the drawings, the disclosure, and the appended claims.
