Definitions

  • the invention relates to a starting block or pad with a support edge device for starting a backstroke swimming race.
  • starting blocks are provided, arranged respectively at each race lane, often in a number of 10 lanes.
  • Each swimming starting block is particularly adapted to the type of swimming race during a competition.
  • the starting blocks are all arranged on the same line at the edge of one side of the pool.
  • the swimmer leans on an upper platform of the starting block for a crawl, breaststroke or dolphin stroke.
  • he can lean on a front part of the starting block, or also on an inclined push plane arranged towards the rear of the platform.
  • each swimmer must first enter the water and position themselves near a contact plate used for the finish of a race.
  • This contact plate is mounted against a vertical wall of the pool below the starting block.
  • the swimmer can manually adjust for this type of backstroke race a device with a support edge so as to place their feet before the start on a support edge plate in the water.
  • the starting block can also include on the front a horizontal bar and two vertical bars connected to the ends of the horizontal bar and fixed to the base of the starting block. This arrangement of bars forms a stirrup structure allowing the swimmer to hold on with their hands while having taken support on the support edge plate with his feet to position himself before the start of the race.
  • the starting block or pad 1 comprises a platform 5 and an inclined plane 3 towards the rear of the platform 5, and a base 9 for fixing the starting block 1 to the ground at the edge of a swimming pool.
  • the starting block 1 further comprises a bar-shaped structure 7 fixed to the base 9 or to the platform 5 on the base 9 of the starting block 1.
  • the support edge device 10 comprises a support plate or edge 13, which is located in the water and connected at its ends by at least one or two flexible straps 11.
  • the support edge device 10 further comprises a means 12 for acting on the strap(s) 11 of the support edge device on the starting block 1, for example placed on the platform 5 in front of the inclined plane 3. Before the competition, the swimmer can still manually adjust the position of the support edge 13 of the support edge device 10 in the water.
  • a disadvantage of such a support rim device 10 is that it must be placed and adjusted on a starting block 1, which causes additional mechanical manipulations when mounting each starting block 1.
  • a judge of a backstroke swimming competition must come and put away the support rim device 10, in particular remove the support rim from the water during the race, no means are provided to make this work easier for him, which is another disadvantage.
  • the patent application EP 3 669 953 A1 describes a swimming starting block, especially for a backstroke swimming race.
  • a foot support ledge is connected by straps to a member for adjusting the position of the ledge in the water.
  • This adjustment member is a cylinder passing through two opposite side walls of the starting block and with a handling wheel at one end of the cylinder for winding the straps onto the cylinder in a resting position or for placing the ledge in a determined position for the swimmer.
  • this does not allow the correct position of the edge in the water to be precisely or easily adjusted for each swimmer and no other means are provided for storing the edge outside the water, which can be a disadvantage during a swimming race.
  • the adjustment device for the support edge is not integrated into the starting block, it must still be added before each race start, which complicates the manipulations of adapting each starting block.
  • the patent application AS OF 2019 250 208 A1 describes a support piece for a starting block of a swimming race.
  • the starting block comprises at least a base fixed around a swimming pool and a platform mounted or fixed on the base and on which the swimmer and his hands take support before the start of a race.
  • the support piece is a front support piece which is arranged to be mounted interchangeably on a front part of the platform of the starting block without specifying the arrangement at rest of the elements.
  • the invention therefore aims to overcome the disadvantages of the aforementioned state of the art by proposing a support edge device which is integrated into a starting block or pad or into a base plate for fixing a starting block to the ground.
  • the support edge device is quickly installed and easily adjusted to the appropriate position by the swimmer.
  • no additional parts are required to perform a backstroke swimming competition.
  • the invention relates to a starting block with a support rim device for a backstroke swimming competition, which comprises the features defined in independent claim 1.
  • An advantage of the starting block is that the support edge device is at least partially integrated into the starting block or base plate to facilitate its use and storage without having to perform additional manipulations to secure it. In this way, the support edge device is quickly installed and easily adjusted by the competitor. Then, after the start and during the race, the judge(s) can store it quickly and easily.
  • Another advantage of integrating the support flange device into the starting block or base plate is that the integration of the support flange device is more aesthetic and safer than a non-integrated version of the support flange device.
