DE19805802A1 - Intermediate fitting liner for saddled animals - Google Patents

Abstract

The liner fits in the space between the saddle (1) and underlay (3) or between the underlay and the animal's back (4), where it can be adjusted to fit and fixed in place. It is made to fit the back and saddle by means of a plastically deformable or foam mass (2) or fluid consisting of two or more components, with a defined inherent pressure and adjustable in firmness, damping properties or viscosity. The mass is contained in two elastic shells (5) for the two components.

Description

The saddles and transport devices commercially available in this area could in their execution the requirement of fit and comfort for people and not do justice to animals.

The commercial documents that are placed between the saddle and the back of the animal in any case leave no space in between. This space prevents direct contact with the animal in the case of a sporty riding style  spontaneous and fast commands significantly delayed.

In addition, chafing and pressure points are prevented, which is premature Decreased concentration and fatigue of the animal. The only process that has been developed in this direction is the process by Mr. Grönberg. This procedure could not convince as it is in its Handling is too complicated and time-consuming, this procedure requires three Air cushions are inflated first with low, then with high pressure then have to be removed after the actual adjustment process, further high air pressure deforms during the saddle and adjustment process Animal back, which makes a genuine impression impossible.

2.1. Based on these basic considerations, a new intermediate layer should be developed:

• a. that the space between saddle and pad or pad and Fills animal back,
• b. those in empty, pre-made elastic covers, separating foils or others Protection products is introduced,
• c. which can be precisely defined in its dimensions and dimensions,
• d. that develops a defined intrinsic pressure,
• e. which can be adjusted in terms of hardness, damping behavior and viscosity,
• f. the mass is in designated devices, which the components included introduced
• G. that does not require expensive aids and devices,
• H. which can be used easily and with little effort by the user,  
• i. who demand the accuracy of fit and comfort for people and Animal does justice
• j. which ensures direct contact between humans and animals,
• k. which promotes spontaneous and fast commands and does not delay them,
• l. an unnecessary loss of concentration or premature fatigue prevented due to abrasion and pressure marks.

2.2. The specifications for the development were realized by the following detailed solutions:
The requirement to fill in the space between the saddle ( Fig. 1 / detail 1 ) and the pad ( Fig. 1 / detail 3 ) or the pad and animal back ( Fig. 1 / detail 4 ) was met by using a mass ( Fig . 1 / Detail 2 ), which can be individually adjusted to the requirements in terms of its hardness, damping properties and viscosity (e.) And can be precisely defined in terms of its dimensions and extent (c.). This mass is placed in air-free, provided elastic covers ( Fig. 1 / detail 5 and Fig. 2 / detail 1 ), separating foils or other protective products (b.), In which it develops a defined intrinsic pressure (d.). The mass is introduced using the devices provided ( Fig. 2, detail 2 ), which contain the components (f. + G.).

The requirement for accuracy of fit and convenience (h.) And direct contact between humans and animals (i.), is achieved with the fact that the mass in the intended covers can be placed directly on the animal, whereby optimal adaptation to the animal can be ensured. Additional advantages of the procedure are more spontaneous and faster commands (j.) and no scouring and Pressure points (k.), An unnecessary loss of concentration and premature Result in fatigue.

Claims (2)

1. A method for producing an intermediate layer for the individual, body-appropriate adaptation of a saddle or a transport device to saddle-bearing animals, characterized in that the space remaining between the saddle and the underlay or between the underlay and the animal's back is individually adapted to the animal's back in a body-appropriate manner. The adaptation is carried out by means of a plastically formable or foamable mass or liquid which is introduced in two elastic shells, separating foils or other protective products prepared for this purpose in an elastically or permanently deformed manner and is thus adapted to the animal's back. 2. Liner for saddle-bearing animals according to claim 1, characterized in
that the intermediate layer between the saddle or the transport device and the underlay or between the underlay and the animal back is introduced,
that the intermediate layer can be individually adapted to the animal's back and saddle or transport device and is fixed in its position,
that the adaptation to the animal's back and saddle takes place by means of a plastically formable or foamable mass or liquid which generates a defined intrinsic pressure,
that the mass consists of two or more components that can be individually adjusted in terms of their hardness, damping behavior or viscosity, ie adapted to the requirements from elastic to permanent deformation,
that the mass is introduced into airless, prefabricated elastic covers, separating foils or other protective products, which can be designed individually or in an interconnected form,
that the mass, consisting of two or more components, is introduced directly on the animal in a few minutes, using two devices provided for this purpose, which contain the components,
that the shell can be omitted in the case of deformable and plastic intermediate products,
that the intermediate layer produced is fixed in position on or on the base or saddle.
