Description

TECHNICAL AREA

The present invention relates to a pole grip, in particular for walking sticks, trekking poles, alpine skis, cross-country poles, and / or Nordic walking poles. The pole grip has a handle body and a device for attaching a hand holding device, in particular in the form of a wrist strap or a glove, with the aid of a provided on the hand holding device coupling element, which can be fastened self-locking and releasably on respectively in the pole handle. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a hand-held device in the form of a wrist strap or a glove, which can be self-locking and releasably attached to such a pole handle.

STATE OF THE ART

In the field of alpine skiing but equally in the field of Nordic walking and trekking and cross-country skiing, it is increasingly considered advantageous to constructions of ski pole handles resp. To provide general pole handles available in which a wrist strap, which can usually be connected, for example. Via a hook and loop fastener firmly by hand, self-locking and releasably attached to the pole handle can be provided. The fixed attachment to the hand can be a significantly increased freedom of movement is ensured, and it is not necessary with every move of the hand to ensure that the loop is still correctly positioned on the hand. In addition, it is possible with a self-locking and releasable mechanism for attaching the hand strap on the pole handle to solve the hand strap short term, or even for a safety release of the pole grip.

There have already been proposed several such constructions, wherein normally, for example, a toothed coupling element is provided on the wrist strap, which can be inserted into a recess in the pole grip, wherein a rotatably or slidably mounted in the pole grip locking element, which is acted upon by a restoring force, the coupling element fastened in the pole handle. This locking element can then be withdrawn, for example, by a button and so the coupling element can be released again from the pole grip.

Furthermore, be on the DE 4103235 A1 reference is made, in which a construction of a handle for a ski pole with a hand strap is disclosed, in which the hand strap is releasably secured by means of a latching connection to the handle. In this case, the snap-in connection is a snap connection with a resilient Schnapparm, and the Schnapparm has in the locked state on the handle from the outside directly and immediately accessible pressure range, so that the Schnapparm is deflected by finger pressure on its pressure range from its rest position.

PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a structurally simple further pole grip available, in which a high reliability of the self-locking attachment can be guaranteed with as few complex components. Specifically, it is therefore a stick handle especially for walking sticks, trekking poles, alpine skis, cross-country poles, and / or Nordic walking poles, with a handle body and with a device for Attachment of a hand holding device, in particular in the form of a wrist strap or a glove, with the aid of a provided on the hand holding device coupling element which can be fastened on the respective self-latching and releasably in the pole grip to improve.

The solution to this problem is achieved in that the coupling element has at least one resilient locking portion which is self-latching when inserted into a recess provided in the pole grip due to this springback, and that a trigger element is provided in or on the pole grip, with which the spring-back locking portion can be influenced such that the coupling element can be removed from the recess.

Incidentally, in the present context, the term springback or rebounding is generally understood to mean an area which is subject to a restoring force. The presence of an actual spring is not necessary. The restoring force can thus be made available, for example, due to an elastic deformation of a region, via a rubber-elastic region, via a leaf spring or via a spiral spring or another type of spring element such as elastomer spring or combinations thereof.

While in the designs according to the prior art always the spring-back and thus locking element is arranged in the pole grip, it proves to be surprisingly advantageous and possible to provide this functionality on the coupling element. Thereby, the construction in the pole grip can be substantially simplified, and in particular it is possible to completely dispense with the springback (springs or resilient elements) in the pole grip. On the other hand, it is possible, such coupling elements with a resilient region as a locking portion very simple metal (for example, bent metal sheet, bent spring steel or bent spring wire) or a z. B. produce molded plastic part. In contrast to the aforementioned DE 4103235 A1 in which the pressure range of the snap connection must be freely accessible from the outside, in order to allow any release of the snap connection, has the proposed construction here via a trigger element, which is arranged in or on the pole handle, and which has the advantage that the pressure range does not have to be accessible directly from the outside, and correspondingly a much more ergonomic geometry of the attachment of the hand strap on respectively in the pole grip with the Coupling, as well as a mechanically more stable and less prone to low temperatures construction is made possible.

According to a first preferred embodiment, the trigger element is arranged in the head region of the pole grip such that it can be actuated by the user to release the coupling element from above. This avoids that in use, that is, when grasping the grip body by the hand of the user, unintentionally triggered respectively the connection between the handle and the hand holding device is released. Nevertheless, the trigger element on the top of the pole handle is always easily accessible.

Preferably, pole grip and / or coupling element are designed identically for the two hands. For example, while an arrangement of the trigger member for lateral release on the pole handle makes it necessary to form both the pole grip and the coupling element for the right and left hand differently (mirror-symmetrical), which is undesirable in terms of ease of use and manufacturing costs, it allows in particular arranged on the top of the stick triggering functionality the stick handle and equally the coupling element respectively the combination of hand holding device and coupling element form both hands identical.

A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the trigger element is provided in a recess in the head region of the pole grip, and is displaced to release the coupling element or tilted about an axis.

With respect to the coupling element, a preferred embodiment is characterized in that the coupling element has an elastically resilient locking portion which is directed upward upon insertion into the pole grip, is momentarily pressed downwardly into the self-latching latch by the recess, and relaxed again in the pole grip , being in this relaxed position the coupling element is mounted on respectively in the pole handle.

In such a coupling element, it proves to be advantageous if the trigger element is designed in the form of a recessed in the head portion of the stick handle pin, which protrudes with its one end upwards from the head portion of the stick handle and which with its other end the locking portion releasing the coupling element allowed to press down. This pin is either arranged along the main axis of the pole grip or tilted with respect to this major axis by an angle in the range of at most 45 °. It is also possible that the pin, which triggers the coupling element, for example, is arranged perpendicular to the main axis of the pole handle, and via indirect interactions (for example, inclined flanks) triggering on a projecting upwards from the head portion of the stick handle trigger button can be operated.

The pin may have at its up from the stick handle projecting end of a release button, which has a larger cross-section than the pin, and so also ensures a lower stop for the displaceability of the pin. In order to prevent such a pin, which is typically mounted in a guide tube or in a hole in the pole grip, can be pulled out of the pole grip, guide grooves, oblong holes or similar means can be provided.

Alternatively, it proves to be advantageous to form the trigger element as a pivoting element, which is rotatably mounted in the head region of the pole grip about an axis of rotation (typically in an angular range between 5-90 °, preferably between 10-30 °), wherein the trigger element at least partially upwards with the formation of a release button protrudes from the head portion of the stick handle and wherein preferably the axis of rotation is arranged substantially perpendicular to the main axis of the stick handle, so that when the coupling element is engaged, the trigger element in a forward (in the direction of) directed position, and to release the coupling element against the spring-back effect of the locking portion can be tilted backwards (in the running direction).

Preferably, the coupling element consists of metal, particularly preferably from a metal sheet, or from plastic, particularly preferably from a sprayed plastic. It is possible here to use polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamides (for example PA66), PET, aramid, polycarbonate or mixtures or fiber-reinforced versions thereof. The stick handle or the handle body is preferably made of plastic or cork, it can be made in an injection molding process, for example, a hard plastic, optionally with a grip-friendly coating. In addition, it is possible to provide recesses or slots in a blank produced by injection molding of a handle, in which subsequently foam parts or cork elements respectively layers of cork glued or otherwise connected to the blank.

The coupling element and the locking portion may be two different components which are interconnected, glued, riveted or screwed or the like, but is preferably the coupling element to an element in which the locking portion is integrally formed.

Preferably, the coupling element has an elastic region over which the locking section is arranged on the coupling element. The locking portion may be formed such that it allows to reduce the insertion cross section for insertion into an insertion opening and self-locking increases this insertion cross-section after passing through the insertion opening due to the springback.

For example, the coupling element has a first portion, which is substantially strip-shaped or sheet-shaped, and has as the second portion via the locking portion, said locking portion, for example, at an angle in the range of 2 - 45 °, preferably in the range of 5- 20 ° with respect to the first portion may be inclined, wherein the opening of this angle is directed in the direction of insertion of the coupling element in the pole grip to the rear.

A further preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that on the downwardly flat coupling element formed the locking portion is formed in the form of an at least partially upwardly directed elastically resilient tongue, wherein the locking portion may optionally have an upwardly directed bulge, and wherein said tongue may be arranged in a recess of the coupling element.

Optionally, it is possible to additionally provide such a construction with a safety release (prevention of fall injuries due to fixed attachment of the hand on the floor) either on or in the pole handle and / or at the connection between the coupling element and hand holding device, which may be predetermined breaking points or but also to constructive measures on the coupling element, which cause that even without actuation of the trigger element when a release force is exceeded, the connection between the hand-held device and pole handle is released. If necessary, this triggering force can also be made adjustable in order to be adapted to different users.

Preferably, the hand-held device is a hand strap which can be fastened to the user's hand.

Furthermore, the present invention relates to a hand-holding device such as a hand-attachable wrist strap or a glove which has between thumb and forefinger on a coupling element which is suitable for attachment of the hand-held device to a pole grip as described above.

Further preferred embodiments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

WAYS FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

FIG. 1 shows, in a central axial longitudinal section, a pole grip 1 which, for example, can be made of a hard plastic such as, for example, polypropylene, polyethylene or the like, or else of cork. In the case of a stick handle 1 made of a plastic, this is preferably produced in an injection molding process or a similar process. The pole grip can have a grip-friendly coating or a roughening of the surface.

At its lower end, the pole grip 1 has a recess 2 into which the pole tube (not shown), which is usually made of aluminum or a fiber-reinforced plastic, can be inserted and fastened therein.

In the head area 3 of the pole grip 1, the pole grip is designed as a hollow profile with a cavity 11 and a circumferential wall 13. The cavity 11 is not mandatory for the function. Towards the front side 14 of the pole grip 1, the pole grip 1 in the head region 3 has an upper bevelled surface 18. The upper region with the cavity 11 is of the aforementioned recess 2 via a bottom 29 separated, this floor may also have openings or the like, as long as it serves as a stop for the pole.

The construction of the head portion of the stick handle can, as shown in the figures, be made in one piece, but it may be manufacturing technology advantageous if, for example, an insert is inserted into a larger recess in the head portion of the stick handle, and this insert or insert in the Recess is formed latching. The insert may be a combination of a guide for the pin, respectively, in general, the triggering element and the pin or the triggering element.

From the hand side or rear side 15 of the pole grip 1, a hand strap 4 is fastened to the pole grip 1 in a self-locking and releasable manner. The hand strap 4 is of a type which (not shown) can be attached to the hand, with the help of a guided by a strap 6 Velcro fastener. To protect the hand, especially in the area between the thumb and forefinger, the wrist strap has a hand protection widening 21.

At this hand strap 4, a coupling element 7 is attached. This coupling element 7 can on the hand strap, which incidentally typically consists of a woven plastic tape, for example. With a width in the range of 5-30 mm, which width can be variable in sections attached. As a means of attachment may, for example, a rivet or screw 8 use find, but it is also possible to glue the material of the wrist strap, for example. With the coupling element 7 or to inject the coupling element directly to the wrist strap. The coupling element, which is to be described in detail below, consists of metal or preferably it is designed as a molded plastic part, for example. Of polyamide, polyethylene, polypropylene, PET, polycarbonate, aramid or the like. The coupling element 7 is used for temporary and self-locking attachment of the hand strap 4 on the pole handle. 1

For this purpose, the coupling element 7 has an area which can be inserted into the head area of the pole grip 1, whereby during this insertion a self-latching locking takes place, which, however, follows by the user can be solved again. To assume this task, the coupling element 7 has a locking portion 10 and in the head portion 3 of the pole grip 1, an insertion opening 12 is provided, in which the coupling element can be inserted.

The locking portion 10 is connected to the coupling element via an elastic or elastic region 9 such that upon insertion into the insertion opening 12 of the locking portion 10 is compressed or depressed, wherein in the elastic region 9, a voltage is built up. Once the locking portion 10 has passed the wall 13 behind the insertion opening 12, the coupling element 7 relaxes again, the locking portion jumps upwards. Depending on the relative arrangement of triggering element and coupling element within the pole grip, the coupling element or the locking section but also to the side or down fast for latching. Thus, the coupling element 7 is trapped behind the wall 13, since the upward relaxed again locking portion prevents withdrawal of the coupling element 7 from the head portion 3 of the pole grip 1.

If the user now wants to release this self-latching fastening of the coupling element 7 on the pole grip 1, the pole grip has a triggering element 16. This triggering element 16 is formed in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 in the form of a displaceable pin embedded in the head region 3 Surface 18 of the head portion 3 protrudes with its upper end, and which is with its lower end and its lower tip 22 in contact with the locking portion 10. The triggering element is guided for this purpose in the cavity 11 in a guide tube 20, wherein this guide is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the stick forward to optimally cooperate with the locking portion can (see description of the triggering below).

At its upper end, the trigger element 16 has a release button 17. This trigger button is wider than the pin of the trigger element and accordingly results on the bottom of the trigger button a stop surface 23. This stop surface 23 prevents the trigger element 16 completely in the head area the pole grip can be sunk.

In order to additionally prevent the triggering element 16 from falling out of the pole grip, for example, a slot and / or one or more guide grooves 19 may be arranged. In the case of guide grooves in the trigger element 16, these elongate guide grooves cooperate with corresponding projections in the inner surface of the guide tube (conversely, projections may be provided in the trigger element, which run in grooves in the inner surface of the guide tube 20). In the case of a slot this is penetrated by an axis or a web which is perpendicular to the axis of displacement of the trigger element, penetrated. The triggering element 16 is also preferably made of a plastic, but it can also be designed as a metal pin.

Although this is not mandatory for the functionality of the attachment of the coupling element, it is possible to provide the trigger element spring-loaded in order to ensure a defined basic position.

If now the user wants to pull the coupling element 7 shown in Figure 1 in the locked position from the pole handle, respectively solve the hand strap 4 from the pole grip 1, this is done by pressing down the trigger button 17. If the trigger button 17 is pushed into the pole grip 1, so presses the lower, and preferably rounded tip 22 on the locking portion 10. This is possible via an elastic deformation in the area 9. Since now the locking portion 10 is pressed down, the coupling element can be pulled in Figure 1 to the right from the pole handle and through the insertion opening 12 therethrough.

FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of a pole grip. As in the following figures, equivalent elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, as has already been done in connection with FIG. In the case of the embodiment according to Figure 2, the trigger element 16 is not displaceably mounted in the head portion 3 of the pole grip 1, but it is rotatably mounted about an axis 25. FIG. 2 a) shows the state in which the coupling element 7 is fastened to the pole grip 1. In Figure 2b) the state is shown in which the Triggering element is tilted such that the coupling element 7 can be pulled out of the opening 12 of the pole grip 1 out. The triggering element 16 is to a certain extent designed as a crescent-shaped element whose upper tip forms the trigger button 17, which protrudes from the upper surface 18 of the head region 3. For this purpose, the upper surface 18 has an opening 26.

In the lower region, the trigger element 16 is pivotally mounted via an axis 25 arranged perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Because the trigger element 16 is caught in the opening 26, it can only in a certain angular range (the two extremes are in the figures 2a) resp. b) shown) are moved. The fact that the elastic deformation is arranged in the coupling element, it is also, as already in the embodiment according to Figure 1, not required that the trigger element 16 also, for example, is acted upon by a spring with a restoring force.

On its lower side, the triggering element 16 has a bearing surface 27, which typically has a rounded region 28 at the front and which is arranged substantially parallel to the plane of the locking section 10 in the relaxed region of the coupling element 7 shown in FIG. The axis 25 is preferably arranged as far as possible at the front edge of the triggering element.

If now shown in Figure 2a), locked in the pole grip 1 coupling element 7 are pulled out of the pole grip, the user pushes the trigger button 17 to the rear, with the trigger element 16 rotates clockwise about the axis 25 and thereby with the top 22 the Locking section 10 presses down, as shown in reaching the stop 23 of the trigger element 16 in Figure 2b). Now, the upper edge of the locking portion 10 is pressed down so far that the coupling element 7 can be pulled out through the insertion opening 12 to the right.

Another embodiment is shown in FIG. This is also a pivotally arranged in the head area 3 trigger element 16. This trigger element 16 is ergonomically designed and also has an overlap 31, whereby it can be substantially prevented that in the triggering position according to Figure 3b) the cavity 11 is exposed excessively through the opening 26, and thereby also a harmonious transition of the front edge of the pole handle in the locked state (see Figure 3a)) guaranteed can. In addition, the trigger element 16 in this embodiment has a recess 30 or a through hole to provide an elegant construction. The trigger element, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, can again be made of metal (for example aluminum), but it is preferably a molded plastic part.

In Figure 4, various constructions of the coupling element are shown, in each case the attachment with a groove or a screw 8 is shown schematically.

Figure 4a) shows a coupling element 7, as it is used in Figures 1-3. This coupling element is made in one piece from a plastic which is elastically deformable at least in the area 9, so that the locking portion 10 can be pressed down without breakage and then jumps up again when released. The coupling element 7 has a sliding section 24, which slides on the upper side of the bottom 29, for example, in FIG. 1 or 2. Such a coupling element has, for example, a width b in the range of 3-20, preferably 5-10 mm. The coupling element also usually has a length 1 in the range of 5-70 mm, preferably 10-40 mm. The coupling element can either be made of a bent sheet metal part (spring steel or spring wire also possible), but it can also be a molded plastic part, optionally fiber reinforced, be. Use is, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide, aramid, polycarbonate. Typically, in the relaxed state, the coupling element has a height h in the range of 2-20, preferably of 3-10 mm, and the thickness of the flat portion may be between 0.5-2 mm in the case of sheet metal and between 0.5-2 mm in the case of a plastic part. 4 mm.

Figure 4b) shows an alternative construction in which the coupling element 7 is also formed in one piece. Here is the locking portion to a certain extent arranged only in a central region, that is, it is defined by an exposed by the gap 34 a tab which is connected via a connecting web. While a coupling element according to FIG. 4a) can be produced, for example, from sheet metal in a stamping and bending process in which first the section 10 is folded out and subsequently folded over more than 90 °, the coupling element according to FIG. 4b) (as well as equally those of Figures 4c) -f)) are produced by the outer contour and the gap 34 is punched from a sheet metal part and then the locking portion 10 is bent out of the plane of the sheet. Similarly, it is possible to produce such a coupling element in an injection molding process (injection molding).

An alternative design is shown in Figure 4c). In this case, the locking portion is to some extent formed with a taper, and in the region of the tip of the locking portion 10 has an upwardly directed bulge 32, which for better attachment in the head area 3, respectively. can serve behind the insertion opening.

As can be seen from FIG. 4d), the fastening region 8 can also be made narrower than that region of the coupling element 7 which is fastened latching in the pole grip 3. In this case, an elongated shape as in FIG. 4d) is possible, but a circular shape of the region arranged in the pole grip is also possible, as shown in FIG. 4e). 4e) also serves to illustrate the possibility of bending the attachment area 8 with respect to the plane of the area arranged in the pole grip, this being possible both upwards and downwards.

Another possible construction of the coupling element is shown in Figure 4f). In this case, two locking portions 10 are each arranged laterally, such a construction is particularly simple, since only a circumferential contour is provided and no gap 34, and also has such an element, so to speak, a redundancy, that is, if one of the locking sections, for example, does not attack is no longer sufficient elasticity or even canceled, such a coupling element is still at least temporarily fastened to pole handle 1.

It must be emphasized that the specified embodiments only for Illustration and to show how the invention can actually be implemented. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of protection as defined in the appended claims. At least variations and variants of the exemplary embodiments which are accessible to the person skilled in the art are accordingly also provided by the present invention as long as the patent claims cover them.
