La invención, tal como expresa el enunciado de la presente memoria descriptiva, se refiere a una espinillera flexible de protección para hockey y variantes de dicho deporte, la cual aporta, a la función a que se destina, varias ventajas y características de novedad que se describirán en detalle más adelante y que suponen una mejora frente los sistemas actualmente conocidos en el estado de la técnica para el mismo fin. The invention, as expressed in the statement of the present specification, refers to a flexible shin guard for hockey and variants of said sport, which contributes, to the function to which it is intended, several advantages and novelty characteristics that are they will describe in detail below and that they represent an improvement against the systems currently known in the state of the art for the same purpose.

Más en particular, el objeto de la invención se centra en una espinillera del tipo que se utiliza en el deporte de hockey y sus variantes como protección de la pierna en la zona de la espinilla frente a eventuales golpes de stick, la cual se configura como un dispositivo concebido y realizado en orden a proporcionar notables ventajas respecto a los modelos existentes de análogas finalidades, gracias a su configuración flexible, lo cual le aporta la capacidad de un ajuste perfecto a las piernas de los deportistas en cualquiera de las tallas seleccionadas. More particularly, the object of the invention focuses on a shin guard of the type that is used in hockey sport and its variants as protection of the leg in the area of the shin against possible stick strokes, which is configured as a device conceived and realized in order to provide remarkable advantages over the existing models of analogous purposes, thanks to its flexible configuration, which gives it the ability of a perfect fit to the legs of the athletes in any of the selected sizes.

FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

El campo de aplicación de la presente invención se centra en el sector de la industria dedicado a la fabricación de accesorios y material deportivo, centrándose concretamente en el ámbito de los elementos de protección, particularmente espinilleras de hockey y deportes similares. The field of application of the present invention is focused on the industry sector dedicated to the manufacture of accessories and sports equipment, focusing specifically on the field of protection elements, particularly hockey and similar sports shin guards.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Como referencia al estado actual de la técnica, cabe señalar que, si bien es ampliamente conocida la utilización de espinilleras como elemento de protección tanto en el hockey como en otros muchos deportes, existiendo múltiples y variados modelos distintos, al menos por parte del solicitante, se desconoce la existencia de ninguna otra espinillera que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta la que aquí se preconiza. As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, although the use of shin guards is widely known as an element of protection in both hockey and many other sports, there are multiple and varied different models, at least by the applicant, The existence of any other shin guards that present technical, structural and constitutive characteristics similar to those presented here is unknown.

En dicho sentido, conviene señalar que se conocen numerosos tipos y modelos de protecciones o dispositivos de protección de las piernas en el hockey, sin embargo, ninguno de ellos es de carácter flexible como el que aquí se propone, como mucho, de ser flexibles lo son para permitir la articulación de una pieza de protección de la espinilla y otra de la rodilla, pero no para ajustarse alrededor de la pierna en la zona de la espinilla como es el caso de la que aquí se propone, y que con ello permite un ajuste más preciso a la pierna, independientemente del tamaño de la misma pero sin perder la dureza que proporcionar mayor protección. In this regard, it should be noted that numerous types and models of protections or devices for leg protection in hockey are known, however, none of them is flexible in nature, such as the one proposed here, at most, to be flexible. they are to allow the articulation of a piece of protection of the shin and another of the knee, but not to fit around the leg in the area of the shin as is the case of the one proposed here, and that with this allows a more precise fit to the leg, regardless of the size of the leg but without losing the hardness that provide greater protection.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

Así, la espinillera flexible de protección para hockey y variantes de dicho deporte que la presente invención propone se configura como una novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, ya que a tenor de su implementación y de forma taxativa se alcanza satisfactoriamente el objetivo anteriormente señalado, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo hacen posible y que lo distinguen de lo ya conocido, convenientemente recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompañan a la presente memoria descriptiva del mismo. Thus, the flexible shin guard for hockey and variants of said sport that the present invention proposes is configured as a novelty within its field of application, since according to its implementation and in a restrictive way the aforementioned objective is satisfactorily achieved, the characterizing details making it possible and distinguishing it from what is already known, conveniently included in the final claims that accompany the present specification thereof.

De forma concreta, lo que la invención preconiza es una espinillera de protección que de manera innovadora está conformada por tres partes que la dotan de ventajosa flexibilidad. En concreto, está formada por tres piezas alargadas, dos laterales y una central, de material composite las cuales están adosadas unas a otras por sus lados largos y unidas entre sí mediante una pieza posterior de material textil, de modo que presentan movimiento flexible de ambas piezas laterales respecto de la pieza central que permite su perfecto ajuste a las piernas del deportista. Specifically, what the invention advocates is a shin guard that is innovatively made up of three parts that provide it with advantageous flexibility. Specifically, it is formed by three elongated pieces, two lateral and one central, of composite material which are attached to each other by their long sides and joined together by a rear piece of textile material, so that they have flexible movement of both side pieces with respect to the center piece that allows its perfect fit to the athlete's legs.

La espinillera está realizada en un composite de materiales sintéticos, lo que le confiere una dureza y ligereza muy altas para conseguir la máxima comodidad y el menor peso posibles. The shin guard is made of a composite of synthetic materials, which gives it a very high hardness and lightness to achieve maximum comfort and the lowest possible weight.

Al mismo tiempo, la espinillera propuesta cuenta con una funda textil, preferentemente elástica, que funciona a modo de “canguro” ya que cuenta con unos bolsillos superior e inferior entre los que se incorpora fácilmente la protección de composite, permitiendo además fijarla en la pierna de manera correcta y evitando posibles desplazamientos indeseados de la misma durante el juego mediante una tira de sujeción de la que está provista lateralmente dicha funda. At the same time, the proposed shin guard has a textile cover, preferably elastic, that works as a “kangaroo” as it has upper and lower pockets between which the composite protection is easily incorporated, also allowing it to be fixed on the leg in a correct way and avoiding possible unwanted displacements of it during the game by means of a fastening strip of which said cover is provided laterally.

Asimismo, conviene destacar que la funda es lavable, lo que le confiere una mayor ventaja a la hora de la higiene y cuidado del material deportivo. It should also be noted that the cover is washable, which gives it a greater advantage when it comes to hygiene and care of sports equipment.

La descrita espinillera flexible representa, pues, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para el fin a que se destina, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita. The aforementioned flexible shin guard, therefore, represents an innovative structure with structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now for the purpose to which it is intended, reasons that, together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
