Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support stick for the practice of cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, trekking, walking, train, downhill skiing or any other activity requiring the use of poles.
  • Said stick is equipped with a support for the hand of a user.
  • This support replaces or supplements the traditional support of sticks equipped with straps or gauntlets. Poles equipped with such a system offer better support, without the discomfort caused by the hand strap.
  • An example of a support stick is known from the document FR 2 470 621 .
  • this support constitutes a means of facilitating progress, when traveling across sloping areas.
  • the left and right hands are at the same height.
  • some sticks include a foam sleeve, located along the shaft of the stick below the grip. These sleeves are, on some clubs in general, ridged in order to improve the grip of the stick.
  • the use of these sleeves requires a significant clamping force on the rod of the pole, during progressions in climbs and slopes, which is a significant drawback.
  • the present invention makes it possible to switch easily from one position to another (low / high) and allows to have a significant support while saving energy (no need to tighten the handle or the sleeve to have a support).
  • the present invention thus proposes, in general terms to replace the support systems by wrist straps with which the handles of sticks are equipped and, in its elaborate version, to provide gripping means on the shaft of a stick, in order to have effective support on the upstream pole on slopes, making it possible to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the invention relates to a support stick as defined in claim 1.
  • the disk portion extends over an angular sector of at least 90 °.
  • the projection extends laterally over a width of between 15 and 50 millimeters.
  • the projection has for example the shape of a peripheral disc, or has the shape of an elliptical disc.
  • the upper surface of the support extends along a transverse plane substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the stick, or even curved upwards.
  • the second gripping and support assembly is adjustable in position in order to adapt the height of the lateral bearing projection to the morphology of the user, said assembly being slidably mounted on the rod of the stick, while means for locking in position allow this assembly to be locked at the correct height, in the chosen position.
  • a support stick (1) consists, in a manner known per se, of a rod (2) in the form of a profile with a longitudinal axis (XX '), the upper end (3) of which is equipped with a main end handle (4), while the lower end (5) comprises a hooking point and, incidentally, a washer (6).
  • the main end handle (4) is preferably devoid of a strap, so as not to constrain the user (U) when one of his hands moves along the rod (2), such as as explained in more detail below, but of course it could be otherwise.
  • the stick comprises support means (7) for the hand, and more particularly, a support for the ulnar edge (8) of the hand (9) of a user of a stick, (as illustrated in figures 1 and 3 ), especially for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, trekking, trail running or walking.
  • This support allows the user to place his hand in support below the main end handle (4).
  • this support constitutes means facilitating progress, when traveling across sloping areas.
  • Said support (7) is disposed on the rod of the stick under the main end handle (4), at a distance as defined later in the description.
  • These support means (7) consist of a lateral projection (10) extending laterally with respect to the longitudinal axis (X, X ') of the rod (2) of the stick (1).
  • This lateral projection (10) is integral with the rod (2) on which the user can rest, when moving, in particular when crossing in sloping areas, as illustrated in figure 1 .
  • the lateral bearing projection (10) is generally constituted by at least one disc portion comprising an upper bearing surface (11) facing upwards, that is to say towards the main handle (4) on which the edge ulnar (8) of a user's hand (9) can lean on, as shown in figures 1 and 3 .
  • the lateral bearing projection (10) is either in the general form of a peripheral disc as illustrated in FIGS. figures 1, 2 , 2a, 3 , 4, 5 , 8 , 11 either in the form of a portion of a disc as illustrated on figure 6 , and 12 .
  • the latter advantageously extends angularly over an angular sector (A) of at least 90 °, such as for example 120 °.
  • the bearing projection has the shape of a circular peripheral disc, but it could take another shape such as an elliptical disc.
  • the upper bearing surface (11) is for example planar so as to extend along a transverse plane (P) and for example substantially perpendicular, see perpendicular to the axis (X, X ') of the rod as illustrated in figures 2 , 2a , 3 , 4 , 8 , 9 and 10 , but it could be otherwise.
  • the upper bearing surface (11) is convex upwards (HA) as illustrated on figure 7 .
  • the protrusion according to another embodiment (not shown) may be such that its upper surface is concave.
  • the lateral support projection (10) is extended upwards, that is to say towards the upper end of the stick by a secondary gripping handle (12).
  • the latter of tubular form is engaged around the rod (2) of the stick, to form a secondary gripping and support assembly (13).
  • this embodiment is considered as a variant of the invention.
  • This secondary gripping and support assembly (13) is arranged on the rod under the upper end handle (4) as also illustrated on figure 1, 2 , 2a , 8 .
  • the main end handle (4) can also include at its base a support projection (10) to form support means (7) such as those defined above, and as appears on figure 2a , to constitute a set of gripping and main support (13 ').
  • the stick comprises both a first gripping and support assembly arranged at the upper end of the stick, as appears in figure 2a , and a second gripping and support assembly, arranged under the first assembly.
  • the second gripping and support assembly (13) is adjustable in longitudinal position on the rod (2) of the stick (1), in order to adapt the height of the lateral support projection to the morphology of the user .
  • this assembly is slidably mounted (C) on the rod of the stick, while locking means (15) in position allow this assembly to be locked at the correct height, in the chosen position.
  • the locking means (15) are for example such as those illustrated on figure 8 , and disclosed in patent applications EP 0 098 898 or EP 0 641 578 .
  • these locking means are for example constituted by a locking ring (20) comprising for example in a manner known per se an annular wall in which is arranged a longitudinal slot (21), through which a clamping means, such as a bolt and a nut connected by a pivot connection to a lever arm and clamping cam (22).
  • a clamping means such as a bolt and a nut connected by a pivot connection to a lever arm and clamping cam (22).
  • bearing projection (10) of the secondary gripping and bearing assembly (13), used in the bushings is located at a distance (D) from the upper end (40) of the handle. upper end (4) between 20 and 50 centimeters, from the upper end (4) of the main handle.
  • the height (h) of the main end handle (4) as well as that of the gripping assembly and secondary support is substantially equal or even greater than the width of the hand of the user, with his glove.
  • the handle (12) has a general profile of revolution, namely that the stick (1) has no sense of grip.
  • the combination of a handle having a profile of revolution and at least one peripheral bearing projection centered on the rod provides ease of use, during grip changes along the rod in sloping areas, which regardless of the angular position of the hiking pole, the user can grip the latter without any difficulty.
  • the figures 9 and 10 are views similar to the figure 2 , illustrating two variants.
  • the main end handle (4) is equipped with a wrist strap (14), while according to the embodiment of the figure 10 , the stick is equipped with a link (23) which advantageously comprises triggering means in order to be able to release the user if necessary.
  • the bearing surface (11) is a succession of bearing surface elements.
  • the gripping and secondary support assembly (13) could also have a retaining strap (14), such as that of the main handle of the figure 9 .
