Description

The invention relates to a bridle bit for horses, donkeys and mules and other riding and draft animals, consisting of a single or multilayer mouthpiece to the seat front over the mouth width and tongue of the animal, wherein in a mouthpiece of several belt layers this by surface bonding and / or are connected to one another by at least one transverse and / or longitudinal seam, wherein the layers of the single- or multi-layer mouthpiece each consist of one or more belts which are suitably wide according to the mouthpiece width and these lateral eyelets or leather straps are laterally right and left, in each of which a bit ring is held, for supporting the ends of a bridle strap or a top or bottom strap.

A leather bit for horses of this kind is according to the DE 4 141 236 C2 , the DE 85 12 991 U1 and the DE 20 2008 005 438 U1 known.

According to the DE 4 141 236 C2 is provided at least a three-layer mouthpiece of a leather denture, these layers are connected to each other by surface bonding and on the other hand by at least one longitudinal seam. Underneath this mouthpiece, an additional wide leather strap is attached to form a securing under-horseshoe strap having an outer loop two to four times the length of the mouthpiece and a right and left length adjustment buckle and opposite end the leather belt section with row of holes. In the overlapping area between the mouthpiece and the leather straps of the lower mouth strap, these are sewn together and have the same width. The complete mouthpiece is so far formed from each interconnected three wide leather straps, which are not surrounded to the outside by an additional protective cover. Although the leather core in the teeth of the animal over time softens, it has been shown that leather bits of this species can tilt in the mouth of the animal, or that the horses can be sore in the area of the foot angle, as in particular in plastic, Wire or steel bits is the case, which are encased for protection with a thin piece of leather. Such coated plastic, wire or steel bits are bitten down by the horses within seconds on the bit core, which can easily lead to serious injuries.

Furthermore, bridle bits for horses according to the DE 8 512 991 U1 known, wherein the mouthpiece has a denture core which is externally covered by a latex rubber hose. The actual nature of the sheath is not described, the hose rubber material is also bitten down in horses on seconds, for example, consisting of leather straps bit core and a special protection of the leather straps is therefore no longer available. By moving the mouthpiece with the bitten down outer tube rubber in the loading area and mouth angle of the horse, the areas can become sore.

According to the DE 20 2008 905 438 U1 is a leather denture with a special construction of the mouthpiece or denture of a strip of leather with external teeth rings known. In this case, the denticulate has a sheath of leather with at its two adjacent rolled-up outer sides on a laterally longitudinally stitched longitudinal overlapping web, but no full sheathing, wherein the structure of the inner denture core is not described. An advantage of this leather denture is that it is even softer and more adaptable than the leather denture according to the DE 4 141 236 C2 , However, it is not possible to individually change the shape and thickness.

Other conventional commercially available bits for use in the mouth of animals consist of a steel or wire core and also a nylon core. The core is never made of leather. The core of these leather bits is partially encased from the outside to protect the mouth only with a thin strip of leather, in which case in particular no full encasing the wire or nylon core is given. The outer sides of the leather strip are only pulled towards each other and sewn together by a witch-stitch. Even with a horse's bit made of nylon core, the outer thin leather strip is bite down to the metal or nylon core within seconds, which can lead to serious injuries.

Starting from a leather or bridle bit with a bit core made of round or flat leather according to the DE 4 141 236 C2 or according to the DE 8 512 991 U1 with an additional covering made of latex in the form of a rubber tube, it is therefore necessary to create a leather bit with a covering, which can not be easily bitten down or down. The leather bit should be softer and more adaptable and in different shapes and in different lengths and thicknesses produced. It should be individually adaptable to the needs of the horse in the mouth and produce.

To solve this problem, the formation of a leather bit of the aforementioned type is provided in accordance with the characterizing part of claim 1.

The preferably made of leather straps of single or multi-layer mouthpiece form an elongated denture core, which is fully covered outside over its length and over its circumference by at least one or more longer strips of leather in a single or multiple tight wrap, the mouthpiece, which is formed from this bit core and its sheath, is formed in the longitudinal direction of one or more parts, and wherein the bit core and the sheath are connected to each other via one or more, they cross-sectional longitudinal seams and transverse seams.

The bit core of the mouthpiece can preferably at the bottom according to the DE 4 141 236 C2 have attached to the underside middle piece of a Untermaulriemens and be fully enveloped together with these by repeated tight wrapping one or more leather strips.

Further advantageous embodiments of the leather dent resulting from the claims 2-10.

In the drawings, the invention is illustrated with reference to two preferred embodiments and explained in more detail below, wherein the method for wrapping the bit core of a trained as a leather bit horse bit is shown schematically.

Furthermore, from a respective locking ring shown on the right and left, which is hooked to the right or left bit ring of the mouthpiece.

In the drawings is in 1 . 2 and 3 a first embodiment of trained as a leather bit horse bit and shown in 4 a second embodiment, where instead of a made of three leather straps bit core ( 22 ) a bit core ( 25 ), which is formed from a uniform contiguous wide piece of leather or in modification of a leather denture made of solid rubber.

In both embodiments of the horse bit a wrapping of the bit core ( 22 . 25 ) by one or more leather strips. In the first embodiment according to 1 - 3 becomes thereby a single longer broad leather strip ( 23 ' ) having a width corresponding to the length of the mouthpiece ( 24 ), wherein in the embodiment according to 4 three leather strips ( 23a . 23b . 23c ) as a wrapping of the bit core ( 25 ), each leather strip ( 23a . 23b . 23c ) a single overlapping full wrap of the denture core ( 25 ) and these three leather strips are thus stacked on each other with three completed wraps on the leather core over its entire circumference.

In 5 is schematically the production of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) through the denture core ( 22 ) to be wrapped wide leather strips ( 23 ' ). Since it applies, the leather teeth ( 20 ) with a mouthpiece ( 24 ), which is even softer and more adaptable than the latex - wrapped leather denture according to the DE 8 512 991 U1 is, especially softer compared to the unenclosed leather teeth according to the DE 4 141 236 C2 , in this case, the lower mouth strap glued in and sewn under the mouthpiece is no longer directly sewn thereto, but is divided into two sections, each of which has a locking ring on its outside ( 31b . 31c ), which on the bit ring ( 30 ) on the right or left side of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) is hung from the outside only.

In 1 you can see the basic structure of a leather bit for horses ( 20 ), this being an elongate mouthpiece ( 24 ) with bit core ( 22 ), at whose right and left ends in each case a side eyelet ( 32 ) in which in each case a right and left bit ring ( 30 ) intervenes. According to the invention, the bit core ( 22 ) of the first embodiment of three soft leather straps ( 22a . 22b . 22c ), as shown in 3 can be seen. In this respect, there is no bit core made of wire, steel or nylon, wherein the cross section of the bit core can be made according to the individual needs of the horse's mouth and in different forms. This bit core ( 22 ) has wraps with a single over the length of the mouthpiece in the wide reaching leather strips ( 23 ' ), depending on the desired thickness of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) of leather strips ( 23 ' ) guided in several wraps around the bit core and there is tightly wound up. The number of wraps can be made according to the individual requirements of the horse's mouth size and shape. Since the leather strip can be chosen very thin and made of an extremely soft leather material, the mouthpiece produced is shaped according to the specification and very soft and fits perfectly in the horse's mouth, the teeth on the lower jaw behind the incisors in the lying to the posterior molars gap (shop) at. The mouthpiece ( 24 ) is despite its soft execution due to the multiple wrapping with the thin leather strip and its connection with longitudinal seams and cross-seams ( 25 . 26 ) opposite the bit core ( 22 ) very hard-wearing. The mouthpiece of the horse's teeth comes here optimally in the gap formed between the front incisors and the posterior molars (shop), which lies on the right and left side of the bit to lie. It is so far not bitten down by the horse, with no injuries of the horse's mouth occur. It is with the wrappings ( 23 ) of the bit core ( 22 ), which consecutively follow each other, a large number of full wraps of the denture nucleus ( 22 ), the leather strip ( 23 ' ) tight and tight around the bit core ( 22 ) is wound and thereby by a longitudinal seam ( 36 ) across the mouthpiece ( 24 ), ie through the bit core ( 22 ) and the wraps ( 23 ) of the leather strip ( 23 ' ).

As in 3 shown is the envelope of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) through the leather strip ( 23 ' ) through the longitudinal seam ( 36 ) with an additional perpendicular to the longitudinal seam guided from top to bottom cross seam ( 35 ). This attachment can according to the invention by gluing the leather strip ( 23 ' ) are further increased only by means of a natural food gelatin. The material of the leather straps ( 22a . 22b . 22c ) as well as the outer leather strip ( 23 ' ) contains no dyes. The leather straps and the leather strips are so far not dyed and only vegetable tanned. The use in the mouth of the horse is completely harmless.

In the side view of the leather bit ( 20 ) according to 2 according to his bare left tail the structure of the mouthpiece ( 24 ), which consists of the bit core ( 22 ) and the outer wrappings ( 23 ) of the wide leather strip ( 23 ' ), recognizable. This construction of three leather straps and outer leather strips is characterized by the longitudinal seam ( 36 ), wherein at the left end of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) a side eyelet ( 32 ) is shown schematically, which by a leather loop with continuation of the upper and lower leather strap on the outer sides of the mouthpiece ( 24 ) is formed. It is in 2 a sectional view along the section line III - III in the direction of the bit ring ( 30 ), this cross-sectional view being in FIG 3 is shown.

In 3 In particular, one recognizes the structure of the bit core ( 22 ) from the three differently hatched leather straps ( 22a . 22b . 22c ) made of round or flat leather straps, the outer wraps ( 23 ) through the long wide leather strip ( 23 ' ) and the cross seam guided by this arrangement from top to bottom ( 35 ) as well as the longitudinal seam guided from the left to the right part ( 36 ). Further, the laterally outside with a section right and left projecting bit ring ( 30 ), which in the local representation behind the mouthpiece shown in cross-section ( 24 ) lies.

In the representation of the bit core ( 25 ) according to 4 with its individual successive outer full turns ( 23a . 23b . 23c ) can be seen clearly this uniform structure of a round elongated soft leather material and outwardly concentrically around this part in a full wrap led three leather strips ( 23a . 23b . 23c ). These are by a guided from the right to the left side longitudinal seam ( 36 ) with the bit core ( 25 ), wherein the longitudinal seam is guided over the entire material structure of these parts.

In the schematic representation of the in accordance with the embodiment 1 . 2 and 3 to be formed ( 23 ) of the bit core ( 22 ) according to 5 it can be seen that the leather strip ( 23 ' ) a width corresponding to the lengths of the bit core ( 22 ) or of the mouthpiece to be finally formed ( 24 ), wherein in the leather strip ( 23 ' ) already the perforations of the later longitudinal seam ( 36 ) are drawn. At the end of the bit core ( 22 ) on the right and left sides are formed from two leather straps of the bit core as leather loops side eyes ( 32 ) recognizable. Furthermore, the external bit rings ( 30 ) of the mouthpiece ( 24 ).

The in 6 illustrated lower mouth strap ( 21 ) has only two sections, each having a locking ring ( 31b . 3 1c ) have a releasable from the ring circumference portion, so that the locking ring in each case in the bit ring ( 30 ) can be suspended. It is a buckle fastening ( 31a ) in the form of a buckle on the left part and a row of holes arranged in a leather section of a right part, so that these two parts of the Untermaulriemes ( 21 ) on the leather bit in the mouth of the horse ( 20 ) or its bit rings ( 30 ) are fastened.
