Definitions

  • the invention relates to a floorball stick with a blade, a substantially round shaft and a handle. Furthermore, the invention relates to a set of floorball sticks of different lengths. Furthermore, the invention relates to a floorball stick.
  • Floorball English name "floorball”, is a team sport from the family of the stickball games, which include roller hockey and ice hockey. It is a game similar to ice hockey, where you can also play behind the goals.
  • a conventional floorball stick is composed of a shank and a shovel.
  • the upper end of the shaft hereafter referred to as the handle end of the shaft, is wrapped in a grip band, which ensures the necessary grip when playing.
  • a cap is attached at the upper end of the shaft.
  • the blade is connected to the shaft by means of one or more fastening screws, which run transversely to the longitudinal axis of the rod.
  • the shaft may have a straight course or a sectionally curved course, as shown CH-A-695 480 known.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the shaft may be different, the shapes having different play characteristics and handling. According to the regulations of the "International Floorball Federation", however, the stem must be at least in its lower half have a round cross-sectional shape with a radius of curvature of at least 9 mm.
  • Shanks of circular or oval cross-section are known.
  • a special form represents a shaft with a dual cross-sectional shape, which has an oval shape for the upper hand, and a round shape for the lower hand.
  • shaft inserts also referred to as “stripes” or “oval kits”
  • an originally round shaft shape in the grip area can be changed to an oval. The short or long shaft insert is attached to the shaft and then the grip band is wound over it.
  • Grip tapes are usually self-adhesive, about 200 cm long and between 2.5 and 3 cm wide. They are wound spirally around the handle shell.
  • Standard grips consist of a layer of foam which is sealed with a grippable and abrasion-resistant surface.
  • Unihockey advocatesrs wear resulting in abrasion of the grip band or a displacement of the grip band and affect the secure grip. This results in the need to renew the grip at regular intervals, with an old grip strip and the underlying shaft must be cleaned to remove adhesive residue, which produce an irregular and bad beklebbare shaft surface, and then a new grip tape are glued to the shaft end got to. This change process is time consuming and costly.
  • Another disadvantage is an inadequate ability to adjust the grip to a personal hand anatomy.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the shaft is rectangular.
  • CA-A-2 179 329 suggests it in a hockey stick before, a handle with rectangular cross-sectional shape in the hollow rectangular shaft form fit to insert and through Bonding to fix.
  • U.S. Patent 5,816,961 also shows the positive insertion and sticking of a handle in a hockey stick.
  • CA-A-2 270 681 shows an elastically expandable handle for a hockey stick, which is mounted with the help of compressed air over the stick.
  • WO 2004/067100 refers to this as a disadvantage and proposes for hockey sticks with rectangular cross-sectional shape again before an insertable into the shaft handle. Mentioned in this document but also sticks with round cross-sectional shape.
  • the attachment of the handle is made by a press fit of the handle in the shaft or by gluing and / or a screw. For the replacement of the handle, the release of the interference fit by pulling force or releasing the adhesive bond by heat is proposed.
  • the fastener is at least partially relieved of the task of anti-rotation and a widening of the holes in the shaft for the fastener by a relative movement of the handle and shaft is avoided because it is collected by the separate rotation.
  • the handle is configured as a handle that engages over the shaft and furthermore preferably has a multi-part construction with a rigid inner part and an elastic covering of the same.
  • the shaft is designed in several parts and in particular has a separate shaft grip part. The adaptation of the pole length can then be done with otherwise unchanged shaft by replacing a shaft portion against a shaft portion of another length, in particular by the replacement of the shaft grip part against a shaft grip part of a different length.
  • Another object is to provide a set of floorball sticks of different lengths, which is easy to manufacture.
  • the fastening with a fastening means extending in the longitudinal direction of the shaft avoids the previously used screw extending transversely through the shaft and the blade. As a result, the shaft is not weakened at this point. This allows a longer life of the shaft. Further deleted a possible risk of injury to the players.
  • the shaft is held in the receiving part of the blade by clamping and it is provided a rotation.
  • FIG. 1 shows a floorball stick 1 without the blade (which is also referred to as a blade).
  • This racket has a shaft 4 and a handle 2 releasably secured thereto.
  • the blade-side end 9 of the shaft 4 of the racket is inserted in the full racket in the receiving area 13 of the blade 3.
  • the blade 3 is in FIG. 2 shown separately.
  • a complete racket thus results in mounted blade 3 or in conjunction with the FIGS. 1 and 2 ,
  • FIG. 8 shows an exploded view of the handle portion of the floorball stick.
  • the shaft 4 is shown with only a part of its upper portion 5.
  • the handle 2 has a rigid inner part 10 and a comparison in the elastic outer part 11. Both parts are preferably made of plastic and in the preferred embodiment, the outer part 11 is formed in the manufacture directly around the inner part 10 around, for example by introducing the plastic material for the outer part in a form in which the inner part is arranged. A coating of the inner part with an elastic outer skin, which forms the outer part 11, is possible.
  • the inner part 10 may be closed by a separate cover 10a.
  • the handle 2 could also be a one-piece handle without the separation in the inner part and the outer part.
  • the handle 2 is pushed for attachment to the shaft 4 in the shaft longitudinal direction over the shaft, so that the shaft is received in the handle.
  • the attachment against the pulling of the handle in Shaft longitudinal direction is effected with a fastening means 19 which passes through the shaft.
  • this fastener is shown as a screw 19. This is introduced on one side into a recess of the handle, which is aligned with correspondingly recesses in the shaft when fully inserted into the handle shaft.
  • a thread is provided in this, in which the screw 19 can be screwed.
  • the thread is provided in a plate 12, which is secured in the handle.
  • the screw head of the screw 19 is covered with a cover plate 19a.
  • the rotation is provided with cooperating positive surfaces on the handle and shaft in the region of the fastener, which is preferred.
  • the fastening means can then during fastening, or when tightening the screw, cause the surfaces are pressed together in the direction of action of the fastener, which causes the play-free rotation by means of the surfaces.
  • the rotation can also be designed so that the surfaces act on each other under the effect of the fastener without bias by at least one surface is elastically deformed by the other when pushing the handle on the shaft.
  • diametrically opposed surfaces are provided on the handle for forming the cooperating surfaces.
  • FIG. 10 has a cross section along the section line AA of FIG. 9 shows.
  • the surfaces are in this example on the one hand on the handle or on the inner part 10 of the handle in Shape of a web 20 provided and opposite as a flat surface 21.
  • the cooperating surfaces of the rotation on the shaft are shaped accordingly.
  • the web 20 engages in a groove 22 of the shaft 4 and the portion 5 of the shaft, which is particularly in FIG. 8 is clearly visible.
  • the flat surface 21 bears against a flat surface 23 of the shaft 4 or section 5.
  • the web 20 may be rectangular in cross-section, but is trapezoidal in the example shown, which is preferred.
  • the fastener or the screw 19 extends through the web 20, it can press it into the groove.
  • the fastening means presses the surfaces 21 and 23 against each other.
  • the anti-twist device extends in the longitudinal direction beyond the direct area of the fastening means, so that a sufficiently large total area is available for securing against rotation.
  • the "full-surface" anti-rotation in which the respective surfaces of the handle and shaft essentially abut each other with their entire surface
  • guides which provides greater flexibility allow the shaft in the grip, as in FIG. 11 shown a section along the section line BB of FIG. 8 shows.
  • the shank side, the groove 22 and the surface 23 serve as guide surfaces and the handle side webs 24 and 25 are provided.
  • the webs 24 and 25 are preferably different in height ( FIG. 11 ) and also extend differently far towards the blade ( FIG. 9 ) Which as a further function, a single defined possibility for pushing the handle on the shaft results.
  • the attachment means ends the area in which the handle and shaft are connected to each other, which in FIG. 9 it can be seen, wherein the upper end of the shaft portion 5 can be seen.
  • the shaft 4 or 5 is also acted upon on the inside by the handle, in particular in the fastening region of the fastening means.
  • the handle thus forms an inner support for the shaft, so that it does not deform even at low wall thickness under the influence of the fastener.
  • FIG. 10 is the corresponding support as a round sleeve 30 with a plurality of webs 31 visible. This sleeve 30 extends downwardly as a part of the rigid inner part from above in the handle and forms in the inner part of an annular space, in which the end of the shaft enters, when the handle is pushed over the shaft.
  • the shaft itself is formed in the longitudinal direction of several sections. This can produce manufacturing advantages, but gives the possibility in particular to influence the diameter and the properties of the shaft along its length in a simple manner.
  • FIGS. 1 to 6 show an embodiment.
  • the shaft is in FIG. 1 shown as a four-part shaft.
  • the handle 2 is shown.

  • the section 6 is preferably conical in order to adapt the section 5 of smaller diameter to the section 7, which adjoins the section 6 on the blade side.
  • Section 7 of the shaft is in FIG. 4 in cross section shown. It is made up of two concentrically arranged parts. Section 7 is followed by section 8, which initially has an oval cross-sectional shape (section along the line SS in FIG. 5 ) and subsequently in the area 8 'has a special shape for the rotationally secure attachment of the blade (section along the line RR in FIG. 6 ).
  • the individual sections of the shaft 4 can be inserted into one another and attached to one another by gluing.
  • the material of the sections is for example a conventional plastic, as it is known for the production of floorball sticks or a conventional composite material or a carbon fiber composite.
  • the different sections may consist of different materials, depending on their function and load. The choice of the known materials, the expert can readily meet with his expertise.
  • FIG. 7 shows three Unihockeyeaur 1, which are composed of different sections.
  • the previously explained sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 are provided, but of course, a different number and distribution can be provided.
  • the length of the clubs of a set of clubs of different lengths is now determined by the fact that the different length is achieved by only one section, preferably the grip-side section of the shaft, which is used in different lengths for the clubs of different length , In the example shown, this is the section designated by the various beaters with 5 or 5 'or 5 ", which is provided in different lengths All other sections 6, 7 and 8 and also the handle 2 each have the same length for all bats In this way, rackets of different lengths can be manufactured in a cost effective manner, in which also the club characteristics vary only slightly with length.
  • the explained aspect of the length selection by the choice of different lengths sections in the rackets of a racket set may be combined with the previously discussed aspect of the interchangeable
  • Another aspect of the invention relates to the attachment of the blade 3 on the shaft 4 of a floorball stick. This may or may not be combined with the aforementioned aspects of the interchangeable handle and / or the racket set with bats of different lengths.
