Definitions

  • the invention relates to the hand strap of a pole and, specifically, of a walking pole, a ski pole, a downhill skiing pole or a hiking pole.
  • Known from publication US 5123674 is a system for attaching a ski pole to the user's hand in which the hand strap comprises a sheathing and elements for transmitting the power from the user to the ski pole; and the fastening elements between the hand strap and the pole are fitted to the pivot of the user's hand with respect to the ski pole, the pivot being disposed in the section of the junction between the thumb and forefinger of the user's hand.
  • WO 03/061785 is a matching handle of a pole and a hand strap to be fastened to it.
  • the hand strap comprises a strap part surrounding the back and bottom edge of a hand and two transmission straps that pass underneath the palm and the end of the thumb, the power transmission straps being arranged so as to pass from the palm of a user's hand to the handle, attaching to it.
  • Prior-art hand straps have at least either two separate transmission straps or at least a circle formed from two transmission straps for transmitting the powers from the user's hand to the pole.
  • the power transmission is performed from the hand's pivot, i.e. from the section of the junction between the thumb and the forefinger to the pole.
  • a problem with the prior-art hand straps is their usability. The hand is tied to a hand strap and you cannot easily and fast free your hand e.g. to fix your clothing.
  • a further problem with the prior-art hand strap systems is the too tight a fastening of the hand to the handle of the pole. This increases the risk of injury e.g. when toppling over when the hand is tied by the strap too much, and one cannot free the hand fast enough.
  • the objective of the invention is to eliminate the drawbacks referred to above.
  • One specific objective of the invention is to disclose a novel hand strap having just one power transmission strap and which is used to achieve a more powerful power transmission than using the prior-art hand straps.
  • a further objective of the invention is to disclose a hand strap which has a better usability compared to the prior-art straps.
  • the hand strap in accordance with the invention is characterised by what has been presented in the claims .
