Definitions

  • the invention relates to a harness, such as a bridle or bridle for riding, to be attached to the head of an animal belonging to the equine family, such as a horse.
  • the invention relates more particularly to the flanges or clamps for fixing a lever jaw, such as a flange jaw.
  • Flanges of this type are generally used for training horses or when the horse is deemed difficult to ride.
  • the bridles or bridles conventionally comprise a headrest disposed on the top of the horse's head, two lateral uprights extending on either side of the horse's head, a throat under the maxilla and a noseband surrounding the chamfer .
  • the lateral uprights comprise means for attaching a flange jaw and / or fastening means for a mesh jaw.
  • the bit of net or net is composed of two rings of jaws, attached to the uprights, arranged on either side of the head of the horse and between which is arranged a barrel inserted into the mouth of the horse at the corner of the mouth.
  • the net reins have two ends secured to the jaws of the bit and it is possible to drive and adjust the pace of the horse.
  • the bridle jaw consists of a rod called barrel or fattening which crosses the mouth by pressing the tongue and the lower lip, secured to two branches arranged on either side of the mouth and two rings arranged on the upper end of the branches and allowing the fixing of the flange jaw on the amounts of the flange.
  • the bridle reins are attached to the front ends of the branches and traction on the reins attached to the lower ends of the branches causes a tilting of the jaw whose barrel presses on the gums.
  • the feeling of pressure indicates to the trained horse whether he should slow down or turn.
  • the bridle bit acts on the horse's head so as to lower it. Thus, it is possible to orient the neck of the horse.
  • the invention aims to remedy this problem by proposing a harness, such as a flange or a bridle, for fixing a lever jaw to reduce the pressure exerted on the neck of the animal during the tilting levered jaws, to improve the comfort of the harness and avoid trauma to the animal.
  • a harness such as a flange or a bridle
  • the invention provides a harness, such as a bridle or riding bridle, intended to be attached to the head of an animal of the equine family, comprising a headrest for pass to the top of the head, behind the ears of the animal, extended on either side respectively by a first and a second lateral uprights provided with means for attaching a lever jaw.
  • a harness such as a bridle or riding bridle, intended to be attached to the head of an animal of the equine family, comprising a headrest for pass to the top of the head, behind the ears of the animal, extended on either side respectively by a first and a second lateral uprights provided with means for attaching a lever jaw.
  • the flange comprises resilient biasing means capable of extending to allow the lever attaching means to move when a traction force is applied to said fastening means, in order to damp the pressure exerted by the headrest on the neck of the animal, and to return to their initial position when no force is applied to said fixing means, the tension of the elastic return means being arranged so that said elastic return means s' extend when the force applied to said attachment means is greater than a bias threshold and remain in the initial position when said force is below said threshold.
  • the elastic return means comprise a first end mounted integral with the first lateral upright and a second end mounted integral with the second lateral upright.
  • the elastic return means are formed by an elastic band.
  • the implementation of the invention is relatively simple because the return means can be composed solely of an elastic band allowing both the return of the first and second lateral uprights.
  • the headrest further comprises a sheath in which are housed the elastic return means.
  • the elastic return means are protected and the friction on the head of the animal is limited because the elastic return means are not in direct contact with the animal.
  • the lateral uprights have an upper portion housed in said sheath. Consequently, the upper portion of the lateral uprights slide in the sheath when the elastic return means extend or return to their initial position and the friction between the upper portion of the lateral uprights and the animal are limited.
  • the sheath is equipped with stop means limiting the movement of the first and second lateral uprights inside the sheath.
  • stop means limiting the movement of the first and second lateral uprights inside the sheath.
  • the sheath is formed of two superimposed strips and attached to one another by their lateral edges.
  • the harness further comprises a front consisting of a strap having at each of its ends an association loop to the lateral uprights in which said lateral uprights slide.
  • the movement of the front is not related to the movement of the lateral uprights which also limits the friction.
  • the invention is more particularly intended to be attached to the head of a horse, it will be noted that it may also be used for training other animals belonging to the equine family.
  • the lever jaw is a flange jaw 5.
  • the riding bridle 1 shown in FIG. 1 comprises a headrest 2 extended on both sides by lateral uprights 3, 3 ', a front 12, a noseband 18 and a sub-groove 19.
  • the headrest 2 passes on the neck, behind the ears of the horse, the front 12 passes through the forehead of the animal, the under-throat 19 passes under the maxilla lower and noseband 18 is placed on the chamfer, above the nostrils, to prevent the horse to open the mouth and thus attempt to get rid of the flange jaw 5 or the snaffle bit 15.
  • the flange 1 is firmly maintained on the horse's head.
  • Each upright 3, 3 ' comprises two strips 26, 27 superimposed and connected to each other at the level of the upper portion 9 of the upright 3, 3'.
  • each band divides into two straps 16, 17, 20, 21.
  • the lower portion of the upright 3, 3' comprises four straps 16, 17, 20, 21 extending its upper portion 9.
  • the first strap 20 allows the sub-groove 20.
  • the sub-throat 20 is a thong for example associated with the first strap 20 by means of adjustment device 22.
  • the second strap 21 allows the fixation of the noseband 18.
  • the noseband 18 is also associated with the second strap 21 by means of an adjusting device 23.
  • the third 16 and fourth 17 straps called flange 16 and amount of thread 17 are respectively provided with fixing means 4 flange jaws 5 and fastening means 14 of the snaffle bit 15.
  • the third 16 and fourth 17 straps are also equipped with an adjustment device 24.
  • the adjustment devices 22, 23, 24 are, for example, sulk devices.
  • the fastening means 4, 14 of the flange jaw 5 and the mesh jaw 15 are composed of a perforation formed at the end of the flange 16 or the net amount 17 and adapted to being arranged around a pin secured to said post 16, 17 so as to form a loop around the ring of the flange jaw 5 or the mesh jaw 15.
  • the headrest 2 is composed of a sheath 8 and elastic return means 6.
  • the elastic return means 6 are housed in the sheath 8 and have a first end 7 mounted integral with a first lateral upright 3 and a second end 7 'integral with a second lateral upright 3'.
  • the elastic return means 6 are for example formed by a strip of elastic fabric which is sewn on the upper portion 9, 9 'of the lateral uprights 3, 3'.
  • the tension of the elastic return means 6 is chosen so that they extend when the force applied to the fastening means 4 of the flange jaw 5 is greater than a biasing threshold and remain in the initial position when the force is below said threshold.
  • the elastic return means 6 extend so as to damp the force exerted on the nape of the horse while when the flange jaw 5 is urged so less, the force is transmitted on the barrel of the bridle bit 5 so as to drive the horse.
  • the elastic band is sewn between the two superimposed bands forming the upper portion 9 of the upright 3, 3 '.
  • the upper portion 9, 9 of the uprights 3, 3' is also housed partly in the sheath 8. Said upper portion 9, 9 'of the uprights is therefore mobile in translation inside the sheath 8 when the elastic return means are stretched and then return to the initial position.
  • the sheath 8 is formed by two superimposed strips and attached to each other at side edge turns 11, 11 '.
  • the strips may in particular be leather strips stitched together.
  • the sheath 8 has two lateral portions in which are housed the upper portions 9, 9 'of the uprights 3, 3' and a middle portion 24 in contact with the neck of the animal.
  • the medial portion 24 is wider than the lateral portions.
  • the sheath 8 is equipped with abutment means 10 making it possible to define a stable position of the first 3 and second 3 'lateral uprights in the sheath 8.
  • abutment means 10 make it possible to limit the displacement of the lateral uprights 3, 3' towards the In this way, when a force is exerted more significantly on one side of the flange jaw 5, the opposite lateral upright 3, 3 'does not slide inside the sheath 8. a force exerted on the flange jaw asymmetrically does not cause an imbalance of the flange.
  • the stop means 10 are for example formed by a narrowing of the inner space of the sheath.
  • the front 12 is a strap having at each of these ends of the association loops 13 with the lateral uprights 3, 3 '. Said association loops 13 are arranged so that the lateral uprights 3, 3 'slide inside said loops 13 when the elastic return means 6 are stretched or return to their initial position.
  • the front 12 remains substantially immobile during the movement of the elastic return means 6 which contributes to the proper retention of the flange 1 and limits the friction of the flange 1 on the animal.
  • the noseband 18 is also composed of a strap which surrounds the chamfer of the horse and also comprises adjusting means 25 to adapt to the morphology of the animal.
  • the flange 1 can be made of any suitable material such as leather or nylon.
