TITLE: CHOKER ASSEMBLY Abstract of the Disclosure A choker assembly for logging winchlines. The assembly in- cludes a choker rope with a ferrule at one end. A choker hook is slidably mounted to the rope for releasably receiving the choker rope ferrule. The remaining end of the choker rope is releasably attached to a winchline slider. The slider includes an integral enlarged winchline opening and an angular offset choker rope opening. The choker rope opening is tapered, with a reduced outer end and an enlarged inner end for receiving the free choker rope end. A conical sleeve is releasably mounted to the free end of the choker rope so as to expand the rope end to a cross-sectional diam- eter greater than the diameter of the choker rope opening. Thus the choker rope end is held against outward movement through the choker rope opening. The rope may be selectively removed simply by removing the conical sleeve from the choker rope end. This allows the rope to return to its original diameter and be pulled through the choker rope opening.
