Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a stick for use as a sports device, in particular as a Nordic walking stick, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1, as well as a buffer for such a Nordic walking stick.
  • a Nordic walking stick which comprises a stick body, at the lower end of which a tip body and a buffer are provided.
  • the buffer is mounted so as to be lockable and displaceable in a direction axial to the stick body.
  • the buffer can be fixed in at least two axially different positions via a positive connection with respect to the stick body.
  • the tip body and / or the lowermost section of the stick body are arranged to pass through a central opening of the buffer and the buffer to the stick body can be locked in this central opening in an axial direction.
  • the WO 2011/128231 A1 discloses a height-adjustable buffer which can be used to hide the tip when not in use.
  • the buffer is not designed to be exchangeable.
  • the disadvantage of the sticks from the prior art is the unsafe connection of the Interchangeable buffer for the stick, especially for models with an extendable tip or height-adjustable buffer.
  • the models with a purely frictional connection have the disadvantage that the buffer can be rotated at the end of the stick, which is particularly problematic with asymmetrical buffers, since a certain rotational position on the stick is necessary for use.
  • adjustable pole tips are prone to contamination.
  • dirt can collect between the tip of the pole and the pole. Since only a small amount of play should be provided between the tip of the pole and the pole, the penetration of dirt can hinder or even make it impossible to move the tip of the pole.
  • the buffers cannot be exchanged without the aid of tools.
  • the object of the present invention to provide an improved interchangeable buffer for a stick, in particular for a Nordic walking stick, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
  • the present invention provides such a stick with an interchangeable buffer according to claim 1.

  • a preferred Nordic walking stick according to the present invention has an asymmetrically designed buffer. This has, measured parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pole, in a front area, viewed in the running direction, of a shorter length than in a rear area.
  • the insert serving as the fastening area, which is received in a recess in the elastomeric area of the buffer, is preferably made from an essentially inflexible hard plastic.
  • the insert can be, for example, a glass fiber reinforced and / or injection molded plastic. Molded parts made from cast materials (including metal) or machined materials are also possible.
  • the insert can be inserted in the buffer and in it non-positively or positively, and in this case additionally fastened with a material connection; a purely material connection is also possible.
  • the insert which is preferably made of hard plastic, is typically inserted, injected, encapsulated with elastomer and / or glued in the rubber-elastic buffer.
  • the insert is preferably designed as a hollow cylinder.
  • the central recess in the buffer can either be designed as a through opening up to the rolling surface, the upper section of the central recess preferably having a larger diameter than the lower area facing the rolling surface.

  • the buffer is detachably attached to the top of the stick by means of a bayonet lock between the insert and the top.
  • the form fit ensures a structurally simple but as secure as possible fastening, which is hardly susceptible to dirt.
  • the buffer can be attached to the top of the stick in only one rotational position, the top and / or the buffer having an anti-twist device to prevent rotation of the buffer with respect to the top when it is placed on the stick.
  • the stick advantageously has a means for preventing rotation between the attachment and the insert, particularly preferably by means of a form fit.

  • the extensions at the lower end of the attachment thus engage in these extended circumferential sections of the radial recesses during the rotation.
  • the attachment of the buffer to the stick, or the insert to the attachment takes place via a plug-and-turn movement:
  • the two parts to be connected are inserted into one another in the correct position, ie the buffer with its insert is placed along the lower section of the attachment in one insertion direction attached to the longitudinal axis of the stick and then turned on it.
  • This is a rotational movement of the insert relative to the attachment or vice versa.

  • the bayonet connection takes place between the insert 5 made of hard plastic used in the buffer 4 and the attachment 3 or the outer sleeve 28.
  • the slide-on position is through the front radial extension 16 and the rear radial extension 17 on the lower section of the attachment 3 or the Outer sleeve 28, and in particular through the axial gap 18 on the rear radial extension 17 for receiving the axial rib 9 of the insert 5. If you hold the buffer 4 in the slide-on position after the buffer 4 has been placed on, then in the illustrated embodiment, the Figures 1-3 the pole tube 2 with the attachment 3 rotated clockwise in the circumferential direction U, by an angular range of 90-120 degrees, up to the stop of the front radial extension 16 on a right stop 25 of the first recess 7 in the insert 5 and the rear radial extension 17 at a right stop of the second recess 8 in the insert 5.
  • the radial extensions 16, 17 of the lower section 28b of the attachment 3 run, which in FIG Figure 3c are shown in the insert 5 of the buffer 4 to a certain extent in each case in a rail which is formed by a correspondingly shaped recess or a notch or groove in the inner wall 5 a of the cylindrical insert 5.
  • this notch is formed by the leg of the L-shaped recess extending in the circumferential direction U of the insert 5.
  • the attachment simply serves to form-fit connection of the lowest stick tube section with the buffer.
  • the attachment can, however, also have a tip body permanently installed or replaceably mounted thereon, the detachably attachable buffer being pushed over this tip body.
  • an axial displacement of the buffer together with a lower part of the attachment relative to an upper part of the attachment can either uncover the tip body or protrude beyond the rolling surface (as in Fig. 1 shown), or hidden inside the buffer (as in Fig. 2 shown).
