Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bitless bridle for mounts and draft animals according to the preamble of claim 1 and is particularly intended for horses.
  • Such a bridle is known from GB-A 16 541.
  • Bridles also known as bridles or halter
  • bridles are devices on the head of riding and draft animals, mostly horses, for guiding and steering the horse's head. They usually have a frame made of leather straps for the horse's head, the so-called head frame, in which the reins or lines are strapped for the hand of the rider or driver.
  • the head frame consists of a forehead strap running over the forehead and a neck piece that leads down behind the ears and is optionally equipped with a throat strap.
  • Such bridles usually have a bit (bridle or double bridle), but there are also known bitless halters, so-called stall halters, which a horse wears during rest. Such halters are not intended for guiding and steering horses.
  • bridles with teeth are heavy in terms of weight, they are usually only suitable for a special purpose, are not suitable for lunging, for example, and are also not a good solution from a medical point of view.
  • the invention has set itself the task of avoiding the disadvantages of bridles with bits and to create a bitless bridle that is light in weight, can be easily manufactured, safe guiding and steering of horses in a variety of uses, for. B. jumping, dressage, shoeing the horse, lunging, etc., is medically harmless and is largely accepted by horses without problems.
  • a bitless bridle that has the following features: it has a noseband that ends laterally in a side ring and in which a flexible and elastic metal strip, in particular a steel strip, is embedded; a left and a right, short, side guide piece, which is connected to the associated side ring, hangs down and ends approximately at the level of the lower mouth in a guide ring and a left and a right strap, of which the left strap attaches to the right side ring is, runs under the lower jaw and is guided through the left guide ring and the right strap is attached to the left side ring, runs under the lower jaw under crossover with the left strap and is guided through the right guide ring.
  • the bridles are not attached to the side of the horse's head where their rear end runs, rather the two bridles cross over each other in an X-shape under the horse's lower mouth and are each on the other side of the horse's head Side ring attached as their later course and the corresponding hand of the rider corresponds.
  • a loop or a so-called round connection is formed by this arrangement.
  • the loop consists of the noseband and the two reins.
  • both rein straps are pulled at the same time, the loop formed is pulled together, resulting in the above-mentioned rounding around the horse's head. If only one bridle is picked up and tightened, the horse's head is pulled in the relevant direction, although the bridle is attached to the opposite side of the horse's head.
  • the guide pieces serve to guide the reins. Since the rein straps run through the guide rings of the guide pieces, it is ensured that the x-shaped crossover of the two rein straps is always maintained under the lower jaw.
  • the noseband can be adapted to the individual shape of the nose of a horse or other animal due to the embedded metal strip.
  • the noseband is elastic, which means that it exerts a restoring force on the bridle and after tightening the loop (rounding) and releasing the bridle ensures that the loop opens at least slightly again.
  • the noseband is generally bent in a U-shape, its two legs can spring outwards, thus counteracting the pull of the associated reins.
  • a strip of soft material under the noseband in particular a foam strip of water-repellent, closed-pore plastic. It protects the sensitive bridge of the nose, avoiding pressure and chafing points below the noseband.
  • the side rings are relatively large so that they can accommodate at least three loops (the nose strap, the guide piece and the cheek strap) and therefore there is sufficient freedom of movement for each individual loop, so the bridle can work.
  • the side rings are round.
  • the guide rings Compared to the side rings, the guide rings have a smaller, clear inner diameter, which corresponds to approximately 1.5 times the width of the reins. They are round too.
  • a known head frame is attached to the two side rings, which has at least one neck piece, but preferably also a browband and optionally a throat strap.
  • the head frame provides better hold of the bridle described above on the horse's head.
  • each of the side rings of the same size is advantageously larger in diameter than each of the two mutually identical guide rings, the diameter of the guide rings is essentially adapted to the width of the reins.
  • Each side ring is large enough to hold at least four loops.
  • the two loops of the guide piece or rein strap arranged in the lower region of each side ring are arranged in such a way that the rein strap is arranged closer to the horse's mouth and the guide piece closer to the ear of the horse.
  • the bitless bridle shown in the figures also called horse halter, has an approximately 30 cm long noseband 20, which is essentially formed from a slightly more than twice as long, approximately 2 cm wide leather strip. This is folded over at the edge and doubled over, so that end loops 22 are formed on both sides, into each of which a side ring 24, in FIG. 1 the left side ring 24 is shown, is inserted. It each has a free inside diameter of about 4 cm and is bent from 5 mm round material, it can only be destroyed by destroying the loop 22 or destroying the side ring 24 itself 22 can be solved. It is made of metal and chrome-plated. Between the loops 22, the double-layered (see FIG. 30) leather strip of the noseband 20 is sewn on the edge, FIG.
  • FIG. 1 shows a seam 26. Inside this seam 26 there is a steel strip 28, which is additionally glued to the leather strip enveloping it on both sides a two-component adhesive is used.
  • the steel strip 28 is approximately 5 mm wide, 1.5 mm thick and has an overall length of approximately 22 cm. It consists of hardened, white polished spring steel with a strength of 1.5696 109 Pa to 1.1576 - 1010 Pa (160 to 180 kg / mm 2 ), it can be bent, but is still elastic.
  • the illustrations in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 show that the noseband 20 has been bent approximately into a U-shape; due to the inserted steel strip 28, it maintains the shape shown in FIG. 3.
  • the entire surface of the noseband 20 is covered with a strip of soft material.
  • a foam strip 32 made of a soft, closed-pore, water-repellent foam plastic. It is glued to the underside of the browband 20, of which it is a component. It extends into the areas of the loops 22, as a result of which these and thus also the side ring 24 are at a certain distance from the head of the horse. It protects the sensitive nose area of the horse from pressure and chafing.
  • a short guide piece 34 hangs down from each side ring 24; the left guide piece 34 is shown in FIG. 1. It is about 5 cm long and is also made in one piece from a longer, for example 2.5 times longer, leather strip which has the same cross-sectional dimensions as the leather strip of the noseband 20.
  • each side ring 24 also in the lower area of each side ring 24, seen from the loop 36 of the guide piece 34, but in front of this, that is to say offset to the mouth 42, a loop 44 of a rein strap 46 or 48 encompasses each side ring 24.
  • FIG 48 which engages around the left side ring 24 in front of the left guide piece 34 with the loop 44.
  • the left rein strap 46 is also visible, it can be seen that it is guided through the left guide ring 40 of the left guide piece 34.
  • Both rein straps 46, 48 are of equal length, their length is approximately 40 cm. They end in a ring 50 on which the actual reins 52, 54 are attached. These reins 52, 54 are not necessary for lunging, rather the two rings 50 of the reins 46, 48 are combined below the horse's mouth 42, for this purpose, for example, a hook 56 is used, to which a strap 58 is rotatably fastened.
  • the rein demons 46, 48 have the same cross-sectional dimensions as the other leather strips, but, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 1, they are simply placed and have only twice the material thickness in the area of the loop 44.
  • the rein straps cross each other in an x-shape in the area of the horse's lower mouth, to which the view according to FIG. 2 is directed.
  • This illustration also shows that the guide rings 40 essentially serve to maintain the loop formed by the browband 20 and the two bridle straps 46, 48 and to prevent the bridle belts 46, 48 from being released from the lower jaw.
  • the bridle shown in FIG. 1 also has a head frame 60, which consists of a stimulation strap 62 running over the forehead of the horse, a neck strap 64, side cheek straps 66 and a throat strap 68.
  • head frame 60 which consists of a stimulation strap 62 running over the forehead of the horse, a neck strap 64, side cheek straps 66 and a throat strap 68.
  • the cheek straps 66 are attached to the respective side ring 24 with a loop.
  • the loop of the left guide piece 34 At the bottom in the area between 5 and 6 a.m. is the loop of the left guide piece 34, immediately adjacent, approximately between 6 and 7 a.m. the loop 44 of the right rein strap 48 encompasses the side ring 24.
  • the latter loops lie next to each other, but there is sufficient space between the other loops along the circular side ring 24 so that the loops can move freely on the ring without being fixed locally. This allows the bridle to adapt to movements of the horse's head 30.
  • the rings 50 of the reins 46, 48 are chosen so large that they fit through the side rings 24 only with difficulty, but possibly not at all. This prevents the rein straps 46, 48 from slipping out of the side rings 24.
