Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand strap of improved design complete with means of connection to the handle of a pole for use in sports activities.
  • poles used in sports activities such as skiing and trekking essentially comprise an elongated tubular body that has a tip at one end and a handle at the opposite end for gripping said pole.
  • the user of the pole Before gripping the handle, the user of the pole inserts a gloved or naked hand through a hand strap, which is complete with a buckle for inserting in a recess provided in the handle, wherein it is retained by suitable locking means.
  • the hand strap is used to keep the athlete's hand aligned with the handle of the pole in order to guarantee a valid gripping action.
  • the hand strap also ensures that the pole remains connected to the athlete's hand both to provide better support and in the event of any accidental or intentional release of the athlete's grip on the handle.
  • the hand straps of known type are shaped so as to form a flexible ring that surrounds the athlete's hand or glove, covering it in line with the wrist, but without adhering thereto sufficiently to prevent the rotation of the hand strap around the wrist.
  • some straps are also fitted with a smaller thumb strap that surrounds the thumb of the hand holding the handle.
  • one end of the thumb strap is attached to the hand strap while the opposite end, after it has been wrapped in a ring around the athlete's thumb, is attached to the hand strap by means of a snap fastener to enable its rapid release in case of need.
  • the present invention aims to overcome the previously-described drawbacks.
  • one object of the invention is to realise a hand strap for sports poles, e.g. for skiing or trekking, or Nordic walking, that - by comparison with the hand straps of the known state of the art - remains more closely attached to the athlete's hand, or glove, when the athlete grips the handle of the pole.
  • Another object of the hand strap of the invention is to be less liable to rotate around the athlete's wrist, irrespective of whether or not the hand is gloved.
  • Another object is that, in the event of its grip on the handle being intentionally or accidentally released, the athlete's hand remains nonetheless aligned with the handle, in a position that enables the athlete to easily and rapidly regain his grip on the handle.
  • the hand strap of the invention advantageously makes the pole holder's grip on the handle more stable and safe by comparison with the known hand straps, and consequently facilitates the athlete's sporting action.
  • Another advantage of the hand strap of the invention lies in that it makes it easier and quicker to regain a grip on the handle of the pole after it has been released, thereby contributing to an improvement in the athlete's performance.
  • the hand strap of the invention is shown in an axonometric view in figure 1 , where it is globally identified by the numeral 1.
  • the hand strap is also shown in figure 2 , wherein it is represented in the phase in which a gloved hand is inserted therein, and in figure 3 where it is attached to the handle M of a trekking or skiing pole B .
  • the hand strap of the invention is also shown in figure 4 , where it is wrapped around the gloved hand that grips the handle M of the pole B , and in figure 5 , where it is partially released by the hand it surrounds, shown in the process of releasing the handle.
  • the hand strap 1 of the invention clearly facilitates the athlete's grip on the handle M of the pole B because it comprises a shaped band 2 substantially triangular in shape that is made integral with the athlete's hand by connection means 3 , as shown particularly in figure 4 , and also in figure 6 .
  • the hand strap 1 of the invention may be worn by the gloved hand G of an athlete, as shown in figure 4 , or by a naked hand N , as shown in figure 6 , depending on whether the athlete is engaged in a skiing or a trekking activity.
  • the substantially triangular shaped band 2 has three vertices, 2a, 2b, 2c, respectively, that come to occupy particular positions on the hand when the strap is worn, as shown in figures 4 and 6 .
  • connection means 3 that, as mentioned previously, keep the hand strap 1 attached to the athlete's hand, be it gloved G or naked N , comprise:
  • connection means are also complete with a ring 7 attached to the first vertex 2a of the main band 2 for wrapping the first belt 4 around the wrist of the hand wearing the hand strap 1.
  • first means 8 for fixing the first belt 4 after it has been wrapped around the wrist and second means 9 for fixing the second belt 5 to the main band 2 after the second, free end 5c of said second belt 5 has been wrapped around the thumb of the hand wearing the hand strap 1.
  • first fixing means 8 comprise Velcro surfaces 8a forming part of the first belt 4 and cooperating by contact with one another
  • second fixing means 9 comprise a snap fastener 9a attached to the second end 5c of the second belt 5 , that is removably coupled to an opposing snap fastener 9b forming part of the main band 2.
  • the hand strap 1 comprises non-slip means 10 facing towards the hand G; N of the athlete wearing the hand strap 1 , the purpose of which is to prevent any rotation of the hand strap around the wrist of the gloved or ungloved hand in the event of the athlete accidentally having to release his grip on the handle M of the pole B , as shown for instance in figure 5 .
  • the aforesaid non-slip means 10 observable particularly in the figures from 1 to 3, comprise a plurality of shaped elements 11 protruding from the surface of the shaped band 2 towards the hand G; N wearing the hand strap 1.
  • the protruding elements 11 come into contact with the glove, whereas if the hand is naked, as shown in figure 6 , the protruding elements 11 come into direct contact with the hand.
  • the protruding elements 11 In both cases, in addition to serving the purpose of preventing any rotation of the hand strap 1 in the event of the handle M being released, as previously explained, the protruding elements 11 also guaranteed a greater stability of the gripping action during the performance of the sporting activity.
  • the protruding elements 11 are provided particularly in line with the first vertex 2a and the second vertex 2b of the shaped band 2 and they exert their non-slip action in line with the abductor and flexor muscles of the thumb and the opponent and abductor muscles of the little finger, respectively.
  • the protruding elements 11 may also cover the entire surface of the shaped band.
  • the protruding elements 11 have a rounded form wherein first parts 11a have a curved shape and second parts 11b have a pointed shape.
  • protruding elements are preferably made of an elastomer, but they may be made in any other material suitable for achieving a strong adhesive effect and consequently performing their non-slip and anti-rotation action in relation to a hand or glove with which they come into contact.
  • hand strap of the invention may also differ in shape from the one described herein, and the non-slip means may also be applied in different positions and have a different shaping from those illustrated in the figures.
