Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a safety riding stirrup for securing the practice of riding by avoiding the risk of foot stuck in the stirrup in case of a fall.
  • Riding stirrups are traditionally composed of a closed eyelet connecting the stirrup to a stirrup leather, two half-arches and a floor, the two half-arches connecting the eyelet and the floor to surround the foot of the rider.
  • stirrup leathers are mounted on stirrup knives which must allow their stall in case of fall of a rider whose foot is stuck in the stirrup.
  • the holding means comprises a branch having a first end connected to the floor on the opposite side to the half-arch and a second free end spaced from the eyelet in order to make a passage for the rider's foot. fall of the rider.
  • the branch comprises a lower part forming the first end of rigid material and a flexible upper part forming the second end the lower part being adapted to hold the foot laterally, the upper part facilitating the release of the foot in case of fall by bending.
  • the stirrup leather being constituted by a flat strap of large width relative to its thickness
  • the opening of the eyelet is dimensioned to allow the mounting of the stirrup on the stirrup leather in the direction of the thickness of the the strap and avoid the untimely exit of the stirrup eyelet during normal use of the caliper, strap in support in the eyelet.
  • the eyelet advantageously comprises an upper central branch for receiving and supporting the stirrup leather, a first lateral connecting branch with the half arch and a second lateral branch whose distal end is close to and separate from the first lateral branch. sort of forming the opening of the eyelet.
  • the holding means comprises an automatic release shoe fixing device.
  • the stirrup is made from a folded and curved rod for making the eyelet, the half-arch and a support beam of the floor, the floor having a plate secured to the beam.
  • the floor plate is secured to the beam by screws passing through means adapted to a variable angular positioning of the plate and screwed into threaded bores made in the beam.
  • the rod is preferably covered at least in part by an overmoulded material.
  • the invention further relates to a riding equipment comprising a saddle of stirrups and stirrups according to the invention for which in that the stirrup leathers are attached to the saddle by closed loops, solidarisant the stirrup leathers to the saddle.
  • the figure 1 represents a schematic view of the production of a stirrup according to the invention.
  • the half-arch 1 of the stirrup, the eyelet 4 and a beam 5a support the floor 5 are made in one piece from a rod 1 has bent and curved.
  • the rod 1a is preferably made of steel and is overmolded plastic 1b shown in dashed lines to give the final shape of the stirrup.
  • the steel axis 5a forming the floor support is the continuity of the half-arch 1.
  • the floor comprises a plate 5b subject to the axis 5a.
  • the plastic plate 5b is fixed on the axis or beam 5a by two screws 3 screwing into threaded bores 7 made in the axis 5a. to get different floor inclinations, the screws 3 passing through means adapted to a variable angular positioning of the plate 5b and are screwed into the bores made in the beam.
  • the means adapted to a variable angular positioning of the plate are, according to the example shown, made by different locations 6 provided for inserting the screws into the floor.
  • the holes 6 aligned perpendicularly to the axis or beam 5a can be replaced by oblong grooves so that the inclination of the floor can be more finely adjusted or even so that the floor is free to rotate around the beam 5a according to a given angular sector.
  • a branch 2 of elastomeric material is attached to the end of the floor plate 5b and this branch is extended according to the example under the plate 5a to be fixed with the floor.
  • This branch 2 is not connected to the eyelet 4 of the stirrup.
  • the lower part of the branch 2 is thicker than its upper part so as to make it more rigid.
  • the branch 2 having a first end 2a connected to the floor on the side opposite the half-arch 1 and a second free end 2b spaced from the eyelet 4, makes a passage for the foot of the rider in case of fall of the rider.
  • the lower part forming the first end 2a is made of rigid material such as a loaded elastomer and the upper part forming the second end 2b of the branch 2 is made of flexible material so that the lower part is adapted to hold the foot laterally. and the upper part adapted to bend facilitates the release of the foot in case of a fall.
  • the eyelet 4 of the half-arch 1 is positioned at 45 ° to the floor so as to obtain the best possible leg position for the rider.
  • the eyelet 4 of the branch 1 is open so as to mount the stirrup on the stirrup leather without the need to remove the stirrup stirrup from the saddle.
  • the device of the invention is a stirrup having a single fixed half-arch.
  • the outer branch 2 is made of semi-rigid material of elastomer type. It is connected to the floor but is not connected to eyelet 4 of the stirrup. Its height is roughly equivalent to two-thirds of the half-arch 1 internal so as to allow the passage of the foot in case of fall of the rider.
  • the elastomeric material makes it possible to ensure the flexibility of the top of the branch so as to also facilitate the passage of the foot in case of a fall.
  • This branch has the characteristic of being rigid at its base 2a to ensure the rider does not lose his stirrups untimely and become more and more flexible when climbing.
  • the flexibility of the top 2b of the branch and the opening allow the passage of the foot of the rider in case of fall.
  • the open eyelet represented in particular at the figure 2 allows greater ease of use by facilitating assembly and disassembly of the stirrup on the saddle.
  • the open eyelet saves time during assembly and disassembly of the stirrup on the saddle because in a single gesture the stirrup is attached to the stirrup leather without having to take it out of the saddle.
  • stirrup which combines safety thanks to its single-branch design and ease of assembly thanks to the open eyelet will allow to use stirrups mounted fixed on the saddle.
  • the floor may for reasons of comfort be mounted flat or with a slight inclination on the back using the holes 6 more or less advanced.
  • FIG. 4 The exemplary embodiment of Figures 4 and 5 corresponds to a second embodiment using a holding means comprising an automatic trigger shoe fixing device.
  • Such a fixing device is in particular known from the document WO03 / 070622 A1 comprises a stop 12 and hooks 11, 10 manipulated by springs not shown and which will not be described here further.
  • branch 2 can be replaced by a short stop 13 or stored.
  • the eyelet shown comprises an upper central branch 4a, receiving and supporting the stirrup leather 14, a first lateral branch 4b of connection with the half arch 1 and a second lateral branch 4c whose end distal is brought together and separated from the first lateral branch 4b so as to form the opening 15 of the eyelet 4.
  • the stirrup leather 14 being constituted by a flat strap of large width relative to its thickness e, the opening of the eyelet 4 is dimensioned to allow the mounting of the stirrup on the stirrup leather in the direction of the thickness. e of the strap constituting the stirrup leather 14 and prevent the untimely exit of the stirrup eyelet during normal use of the stirrup, strap in support in the eyelet.
  • the dimensioning of the eyelet 4 is such that its opening 15 is placed at least three centimeters below the upper part of the support eyelet of the stirrup leather to prevent the untimely exit of the stirrup leather. the eyelet during normal use of the stirrup.
  • an open eyelet safety stirrup has the advantage of allowing the realization of a jumper equipment represented in FIG. figure 6 and having a saddle 17, stirrup leathers 14 and stirrups with open eyelets 4 the stirrup leaflets14 being attached to the saddle by closed loops 16, solidarisant the stirrup leathers to the saddle.
