Abstract

Tracking shoe for bringing out artificial health tracking devices for hunting dog training, which consists of flexible, high-strength plastic, comprising clamping elements attached to the rear of the tracking shoe for clamping wild animal shells, and comprising a slot-like opening (4) for attaching a tension belt to attach the tracking shoe under an original shoe, the Tracking shoe in the heel area (2, 3) has side boundaries at which the track shoe is formed higher than in the front area to fix the original shoe and the opening (4) is provided on the left and right in the higher shaped heel area (2, 3) and wherein the higher-shaped heel area (2, 3) of the track shoe is trapezoidal in plan, such that the narrow side of the trapezoid points in the direction of the heel, so that the original shoe always lies at two points on the side boundaries of the track shoe.

Description

The present invention relates to a tracking shoe for deploying artificial tracks for hunting dog training, which consists of flexible, high-strength plastic.

State of the art:

Tracking shoes are required by the hunting dog instructor to lay nature-identical health trails. These must be worked out by the hunting sweat dog after a certain length of stay.

The track shoes are strapped under the normal shoes. Behind the shoes are separated by means of a tensioning device separated original wild animal shells (severed feet of wild animals such as deer, deer, wild boar) clamped. These must protrude about 4-5 cm below the track shoe.

If the trackmaker now walks through forest or field with the shoes so prepared, the protruding shells press into the ground. On the one hand the soil is wounded, on the other hand microscopically smallest particles of shell, hair and skin are released into the soil wound. The sweat dog must now, after a certain time, find the track so laid.

Previously known Fährtenschuhe consist of either a shoe with rigid non-movable wooden sole or a two-piece metal construction. These constructions either do not adapt to the movement process when walking or only conditionally.

The DE 299 09 582 U1 describes a track shoe made of metal or plastic, which can be strapped by means of straps under the shoe and has a laterally offset holder for receiving the lower part of a Schellenwildlaufes. In this known Fährtenschuh the paragraph area is flat and round in plan view.

From the US 958 277 A is a shoe known to roofers or carpenters to serve as a climbing aid in the inspection of steep roof surfaces and this is provided with straps to be attached to the original shoe. This shoe has a higher shaped heel area, which however has a round shape in plan. The substructure of this shoe is rear much higher than the front, so that the shoe is unsuitable for running on a flat surface.

The DE 88 17 257 U1 describes a tracking shoe in which on the tread of the sole of the foot by means of screws two straps are fastened, which serve to hold a shell of a hoofed game, wherein the sole of this tracking shoe can be made of plastic.

The US 6,398,126 B1 describes a tracking shoe that can be strapped under an original shoe and mimics a wild track due to a specific sole profile, and in which a filter material is disposed in a recess in a protruding portion of the sole profile which secrete an odorant that simulates a wild track.

The object of the present invention is to provide a tracking shoe which, regardless of the size of the original shoe, to which it is attached, is securely attachable and offers a good investment in the original shoe.

The solution to this problem provides a tracking shoe for spreading artificial healthy tracks with the features of claim 1.

The invention and its advantages:

The tracking shoe according to the invention is not made of wood or metal, but of biegasmem, high-strength plastic. The track shoe is strapped under the normal shoe of the tracker using straps. Clamping elements fastened at the back of the shoe serve to clamp the wild animal shells. Due to its elasticity, the tracking shoe adapts to the movement process while walking much better than other known constructions.

Since the tracking shoe is shaped higher in the heel area, the original shoe is better fixed (see .)

Due to the fact that the raised heel area of the tracking shoe is not round but trapezoidal azusgeführt, each original shoe, whether large or small, always at two points (see .)

The breakthrough on the left and right in the elevated paragraph area is provided for attaching a tension belt. The breakthrough is oblique, so that the strap is ergonomically correct to the original shoe (see .)

The transverse grooves on the underside at 5 and 6 are used to hold straps to secure the tracking shoe under the original shoe.

The transverse pits do not go all the way through the track width, but they are cut to the point where the width of the track shoe near the transverse pits is narrower than the width of the original shoe (see section A.) 7 and 8th so beveled that the edge 9 is not burdened by the tension belt.

In the heel area (heel area) is located both in the upper region of the running surface of the track shoe and on the underside of each recess, which serves to receive aluminum flat material (see and .)

These two pieces of aluminum flat material protrude a few mm over the heel of the tracking shoe, they serve to attach the Wildlife shell holder. Both parts of flat material are screwed together by countersunk screws (see .)

A piece of slightly curved aluminum sheet is welded to the two flat parts protruding to the rear (see .) Ziwschen the two flat parts 10 and 11 a hose band is pushed through (see .) Now the wild animal shell can be firmly connected to the track shoe by means of the hose band.

Claims (7)

Tracking shoe for deploying artificial hounds for hunting dog training, which consists of flexible, high-strength plastic, comprising at the rear of the track shoe fasteners for clamping wild game bowls and comprising a slot-like breakthrough ( 4 ) for attaching a tension belt for attaching the tracking shoe under an original shoe, the tracking shoe in the heel area ( 2 . 3 ) Have side borders where the track shoe is formed higher than in the front area to fix the original shoe and left and right in the higher formed heel area (FIG. 2 . 3 ) the breakthrough ( 4 ) and wherein the higher-shaped heel area ( 2 . 3 ) of the track shoe is made trapezoidal in plan, such that the narrow side of the trapezium faces towards the heel so that the original shoe always rests against the side edges of the track shoe at two points.
