Definitions

  • the invention relates to a front belt for riding saddles, in particular horse saddles, which has generic features according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a front belt is placed on the horse in front of the saddle, especially in riding saddles for horses, to prevent the saddle from sliding forward towards the neck of the horse.
  • the withers are not developed sufficiently high and long in the back, so that the saddle on such horses slips forward when riding onto the shoulder of the riding horse. This shifts the rider's center of gravity, which should be above the horse's center of gravity, too far forward, so that the forehand is more heavily loaded than the horse's hindquarters, which limits the horse's range of motion.
  • Front belts with the generic features are available in various forms in the range of retailers and in practical use.
  • the bracing consists of two approximately flat, kidney-shaped sheet metal plates which are connected to one another in a symmetrically symmetrical oblique position by means of a rigid bar made of round steel spanning the withers of the horse.
  • the two plates are embedded in leather envelopes and additionally padded on the carcass side.
  • the ends of the actual belt made of leather or textile fabric, which is wrapped around the animal body, are attached to the plates.
  • Commonly divided, single or multi-layer leather belts that can be closed with a buckle on the left side of the horse and are adjustable in length.
  • Such a belt is supposed to be supported on the horse's body with the two plate-shaped reinforcements padded on the underside on both sides next to the withers behind the horse's shoulder, with the bracket in front of the saddle and knobs attached to the outside of the plates preventing the saddle from sliding forward prevent.
  • the length-adjustable belt running under the horse's chest when tightened (or belted), increases the pressure of the support plates of the front belt so that it does not move forward over the shoulder or sideways, for example when the rider is sitting on the horse. can shift. If the saddle is now placed over the rear area of the support plates and strapped in, this in turn increases the pressure on the Support plates.
  • This depression results from the transition from the shoulder muscles (with the shoulder blade underneath) and the curvature of the ribs in the rear area of the support surface and is delimited at the top by the withers, which are formed from elongated spinous processes of the spine and are held together by a strong tendon ligament.
  • the invention solves this problem with design features according to the characterizing part of patent claim 1.
  • These training features ensure that the inclined position of the plates for stiffening the front belt can be adjusted by hand to the anatomy of the horse, so that the stiffeners are supported in an optimal position on the horse's back on both sides next to the withers behind the shoulder .
  • the bracket has such a great elasticity that the animal body movements when riding are absorbed by elastic deformation of the bracket.
  • the flat cross-section of the bracket ensures that deformations are only possible in the plane of the angle enclosed by the two legs, that is, in the direction of the lowest section modulus of the bracket cross-section. Any deformation in a different direction is prevented.
  • the bracket forms a support for the saddle on its front, since it grips under the saddle in the front area. This is achieved by the position inclined obliquely backwards in the side view of the belt as well as by the flat cross-sectional profile of the bracket. This generally improves the support of the saddle on the horse's back, which also means that the saddle is more firmly seated. In addition, the saddle is better held when the rider sits on and down, and secured against slipping sideways.
  • the spherical shape of the support surfaces of the plates can change into a slight counter-curvature with a very smooth transition.
  • a variant of the invention provides that the plates stiffening the front flange have flexible edge zones with a material-elastic bending stiffness that becomes less towards the outside. Both of the latter measures serve to avoid pressure peaks in the area of the plates, in particular in the area of the plate edge.
  • the front belt whose main task is to hold the saddle in a further back position with the center of the seat above the horse's center of gravity, also corresponds on its upper side through its shell-shaped support plates, over which the saddle with its front area is placed, the lower profile of the saddle part placed over it, so that the latter is not punctiform through the front belt is deformed.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides that the support part of the front belt containing the stiffening and placed over the horse's withers has fastening ends on both sides, both of which are adjustably connectable with the ends of a belly part.
  • Strips attached to both ends of the support part of the front belt are advantageous and can be connected to an abdominal part which has buckles at both ends. This enables a more precise fitting of the front belt and a better adjustment to the body size of the horse. Stripping and buckles on both sides allow the use of belly parts of different lengths to adapt to the circumference of the horse and also the rational exchange of worn parts of the front belt.
  • a further preferred design of the front belt is derived from this, in which the abdominal part is tubular and has at its ends the means for connection to the support part. Strips are advantageously attached to the support part, which can be connected with buckles at the ends of the belly part. When the abdominal part is made of leather, the longitudinal seam of the tube lies on the rear side of the abdominal part.
  • the material of the harness on the front is folded over twice, so that chafe marks on the horse's elbow joint are avoided.
  • the hose is formed, so that the pressure area is automatically increased to avoid overloading.
  • the selected exemplary embodiment shows a front belt consisting of a support part according to FIG. 3 and a belly part according to FIG. 4.
  • the support part has an internal stiffening as shown in FIG. 2 (number 1).
  • This representation consists of two approximately kidney-shaped plates 1, which are, however, bowl-shaped with a spherical support surface.
  • the spherical shape of the support surfaces of the plates 1 merges downwards into a slight counter-curvature, the transition being kept very smooth, as is evident from the figure Illustration in Figure 2 (number 1) can be seen. Plates made of full material are suitable, but also those with openings, as indicated as an example on the left in FIG. 2.
  • the two plates 1 are connected to one another at their upper end by a bracket 2 with a flat cross-section, the large cross-sectional dimension extending approximately horizontally with a slight inclination to the rear and the small cross-sectional dimension extending approximately vertically.
  • This bracket is made of stainless steel and has such a flat cross-section that it is resiliently resilient within narrow limits, but can also be bent by hand under plastic (molecular) deformation.
  • the ends of the bracket 2 are welded to the plates 1, riveted or connected in a comparable manner. In the side view, the bracket extends obliquely to the rear and grips under the saddle on its front.
  • the saddle is shown in Figure 1 with dashed lines 3. Knobs 4 are provided on the top of the plates 1 in a manner known per se.
  • the plates 1 have a casing 5 made of leather and are provided on the underside with a thin padding, the structure of which is known per se. Plates for stiffening the front chord with flexible edge zones and a material-elastic bending stiffness that decreases towards the outside are not shown in the drawing.
  • belt parts 6 are connected on both sides, at the free ends of which a string 7 is fastened.
  • buckles 8 can be connected, which are arranged at the ends of a belly part 10. According to the example in FIG.
  • this belly part of the front belt is tubular formed, a leather strip was produced by tipping and sewing the two side edges lying one on top of the other, the underside being left longer at the ends in order to form undercuts for the buckles 8, as shown in the drawing.
  • This abdominal part 10 is applied so that the seam 12, based on the horse, points to the rear, so that the front bead edge 13 faces the elbow joints and can form when touched by the elbow joints.
  • This part 10 of the front belt enables the front belt to be individually adapted to different body shapes of the horse by providing different lengths of this belly part of the front belt.
  • the back part of the front belt containing the stiffening or the stiffeners 5 or the knobs 4 can be connected directly to the saddle 3, so that the belly part 10 and also the straps 7 can be omitted. Straps or the like are proposed for this connection, which connect the knobs or the stiffeners to one or more straps of the saddle 3. These straps or the like advantageously engage the knobs 4 at a distance from the stiffeners in order to stabilize their position on the animal's back.
