Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved control and control device for a "kite” type kite, or for a sailboat rig (built into the boom).
  • the invention further relates to a kite wing or a sailboat boom, provided with such a device.
  • kite wings have one or more flexible wings, of generally elliptical or semi-elliptical shape, flat or semi-flat and whose concavity is intended to be placed in the wind to constitute a means of traction, and possibly displacement of a user (or user) or other who is connected to the wing by cables called lines.
  • Such wings have many possible applications, including sliding sports, land, water, snow, and used for example for wakeboarding (such as “kitesurfing” in English), skateboarding (“mountain board” in English), the snowboard (“kitesnow” in English), the chariot (“buggy” in English), machines that are towed using a kite traction.
  • wakeboarding such as "kitesurfing” in English
  • skateboarding mountain board
  • snowboard such as “kitesnow” in English
  • the chariot buggy” in English
  • machines that are towed using a kite traction Such wings are used to pull all types of nautical or terrestrial equipment, slipping or rolling, but also are used for power generation systems using the force generated by such wings.
  • a wing of this type generally comprises a leading edge (front portion) and a trailing edge (rear portion).
  • the ends of the four rear and front lines, opposed to the wing, are connected to the user via a control bar and more precisely, the ends of the two front lines are connected to a central end crossing the bar. , while the ends of the back lines are attached to the left and right ends of the bar.
  • the central portion of the bar is connected to the user by a delivery system connected to a user-worn harness or equivalent.
  • the bar is held by the user with both hands.
  • the user adjusts the traction power of the wing by tilting more or less, according to a variable plan defined by the points of attachment of the front and rear lines, and this by shortening or lengthening the distance from the point of attachment to the harness.
  • the user can vary the traction power of the wing by tilting more or less using the sliding bar connected to the lines “rear” (control and power) compared to the lines " before "(traction).
  • the latter can also thanks to a system of adjustment and central referral which connects, most generally the two front lines, adjust the power of his wing and thus extend his range of use. This operation modifies the wedging of the incidence of the wing.
  • this maneuver is performed via a central adjustment and return system which connects, most generally the two front lines so central and slides perpendicularly across or near the bar.
  • Said system makes it possible to adjust the incident inclination of the wing, decreasing or lengthening the distance between the rear trailing edge and the point of attachment to the front harness.
  • the same system or its equivalent can be realized also from the back lines.
  • the user to operate the central return adjustment system, must release a hand, and he / she then holds the bar with one hand.
  • Kite bars comprising mechanisms for adjusting the length of the rear strands are known from the documents DE20315464U and WO2011014904 .
  • This system while providing an advantageous improvement to the previous bars, is likely to improve, in terms of speed and responsiveness, the efforts that must provide the user, and the traction power on the cables.
  • the present invention relates to a control and control bar, for traction wing, which allows the user to adjust or adjust the power of the wing, that is to say the inclination (called the incidence) of the wing while maintaining the bar with both hands, and this with less effort, quickly and reactively, and offering unparalleled accuracy, and finally that is almost sealed to sand.
