Definitions
- the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the obstacle poles are usually opened and fixed on holding devices, so that in the event of a faulty jump, the horse strikes the pole horizontally and knocks down the suspended pole.
- the pole is loaded vertically, and this is the rule in the event of a faulty jump, very high forces occur on an obstacle, so that the risk of falls and injuries for horse and rider is very high.
- safety holders instead of such firmly attached, non-yielding jumping pads, so-called safety holders have been proposed (FR 24 55 471), in which a pad for the hanging part is provided on a block of elastic material, the pad for throwing around a horizontal axis running parallel to the hanging part the hanging part is pivotable against a resilient catch.
- a safety holder has the disadvantage that it is not guaranteed that after the safety holder has been triggered the same conditions as before the triggering are present again, so that equality of competition is not ensured at the tournament.
- a safety holder is known from DE 43 05 550, in which the support is positively connected to a fastening part via a coupling part, in such a way that, when the spring arms are deformed, the support part and the fastening part become detached from one another.
- the two parts With such a two-part jumping pad, the two parts become with a corresponding force in the event of a wrong jump separated from each other so that a risk of injury cannot be excluded.
- the object of the present invention is to avoid the disadvantages of known devices and to provide a holding device in which no individual parts of the jumping pad can fall to the ground and thus the risk of injury is eliminated. Furthermore, the jumping pad according to the invention should be designed in such a way that the triggering force can be set in a defined manner and that an equally large downward force is always required for triggering.
- the obstacle support carrier according to the invention is locked in the non-actuated operating state within the housing frame so that the support carrier assumes its horizontal position and thus serves as a support for the obstacle bar. It is irrelevant for the function of the device and the triggering whether the contact surface of the obstacle bar is larger or smaller.
- a slide In the housing frame, a slide is arranged to move up and down, which is movable relative to a pin fixed to the housing and which receives a spring or a spring arrangement which is acted upon when the slide moves.
- the obstacle support on which the obstacle bar rests is fastened to the slide with the aid of a joint. If a sufficiently high force is exerted on the obstacle bar resting on the obstacle support, the support support is moved downwards together with the slide and the spring is compressed. The compression of the spring is proportional to the force acting on the obstacle rod, so that the spring travel is proportional to the force exerted.
- the lock of the support bracket is released and the support bracket can pivot downwards around the joint due to its own weight, so that it is folded down with the support for the obstacle bar and the obstacle bar is thrown off . Since the obstacle support and support support are still attached to the release device, none of the parts actuated for the release fall to the ground.
- the spring constant of the spring arrangement is chosen such that when the obstacle support carrier is folded down, the same compression path is always covered with a specific embodiment of the spring arrangement and when a predetermined force is applied, so that the device operates with a clearly defined triggering torque.
- adjustment to the force is possible, which must act on the support to achieve release, e.g. forces in the range of approx. 50 - 70 kp occur in practice.
- the obstacle support which is designed in the form of a support support receiving the obstacle rod, has e.g. a head-like part with a joint, which is coupled to the slide and which has a groove on the head, in which the locking engages.
- This lock is formed by the lower limit of the wall of the frame, which comes out of engagement with the groove of the support beam when lowering the slide and thus when lowering the support head, so that when covering a corresponding path the support head has released from this engagement and entire carrier folds down around the axis of the joint.
- the spring arrangement can be a single spring, a system consisting of several individual springs, an elastomeric element in the form of a rubber or plastic body, or a hydraulic cylinder.
- the head of the support beam rests on the front wall of the housing in the locked state.
- the head moves downward, at the same time, when the head is pivoted, a force is exerted on the head edge against the housing wall in a horizontal direction, which force can be so large that the head at this point of engagement with the wall faces the wall outwards presses and the edge of the head is stressed.

- the obstacle bar H which rests on both sides against obstacle stands 18 of the frame housing 7, is received by an obstacle support 1, which is curved and is supported by an obstacle support support 2, which is articulated and can be folded down about the axis 3 and the hinge pin 3a .
- the obstacle support carrier 2 is locked in the horizontal position (FIG. 4).
- a cuboid-shaped carriage 4 with an upper yoke 5 and a lower yoke 6, between which a compression spring or tensioning device 12 is inserted, is guided up and down in the frame housing 7, which is also cuboid-shaped.
- the spring 12 is supported at the top on the upper yoke 5 and at the bottom on a sleeve 10 which is seated on a bolt 1 1 fixed to the housing.
- the head 13 of the obstacle support beam 2 is connected to the slide via the lower yoke 6.
- This connection is represented by the hinge pin, which in the two legs 19 and 20 of the lower yoke 6 is mounted, between which a recess 21 is formed which receives the head 13 with a precise fit.
- the head 13 of the obstacle support bracket 2 is arranged between the front wall 8 and rear wall 9 of the frame housing 7, and a groove 14 of the obstacle support bracket 2 is in engagement with a recess 15 of the front wall 8, so that the head 13 is guided between the two walls 8 and 9 and is secured against twisting.
- the interaction between the groove 14 and the recess 15 of the wall 8 results in a locking which is kept closed by the pressure effect of the spring 12 and the pressure on the slide 4 in the ready position. This locking can be released by a downward movement of the slider 4 and thus the pressure effect on the obstacle support carrier 2.
- the holding device according to the invention is attached to the vertical uprights 18 of the obstacle in each case via lugs 16, 17, for example in each case suspended in an opening in the upright 18.
- the frame housing 7, which is rectangular in cross section, is made of metal, it has a rectangular central recess in which the up and down movable carriage with a rectangular cross section, which is guided in the frame housing, is arranged.
- the carriage 4 is, for example, as a metal plate with a central one Recess 21 for receiving the spring assembly 12 and formed with a fork in the lower yoke 6.
- the fixed stop 22 is, for example, a bolt lying against the wall 8, which is welded to the support bracket 2 in flanges 23, 24; on the other hand, a corresponding material reinforcement can be provided on the wall 8, or a similar form of a stop can be used.
