Abstract

The equipment has a main part (1) that is in a form of a cone, where equipment forms a non-foldable cylinder on an entire or part of the height of the equipment. A non-foldable part of the cylinder is located at a lower end of the equipment. Openings are located with the equipment for passing of leg in an interior side. A slide fastener (3) or Velcro(RTM: hook and loop fastener) is located at a median vertical plane at a rear of the equipment.

Description

La présente invention concerne les équipements de protection de la partie des jambes du cavalier située sous le genou et qu'il est convenu d'appeler « Chaps » ou « Minichaps ». The present invention relates to protective equipment of the part of the legs of the rider below the knee and it is called "Chaps" or "Minichaps".

Ces Chaps sont constituées d'une ou plusieurs pièces de matières d'une épaisseur suffisante pour assurer la protection des mollets du cavalier contre les frottements des étrivières sur la face interne en contact avec la selle. Partie externe et partie en contact avec la selle peuvent donc être réalisées dans des matières différentes. Cette chaps est d'une forme grossièrement trapézoïdale à laquelle sont adjoints des appendices pour par exemple couvrir le dessus de l'avant de la chaussure, le coup de pied. These Chaps consist of one or more pieces of material of sufficient thickness to ensure the protection of the rider's calves against the friction of the stirrup leathers on the internal face in contact with the saddle. External part and part in contact with the saddle can be made in different materials. This chaps is of a roughly trapezoidal shape to which are added appendices for example cover the top of the front of the shoe, the kick.

Cette pièce peut aussi être munie d'une découpe en U inversé pour mieux se poser sur la partie coup de pied d'une chaussure haute, communément appelée « boots ». La forme générale est un trapèze dont certains côtés peuvent être courbes pour mieux épouser la forme de la jambe et muni d'un système de fermeture tel qu'une fermeture à glissière, une bande de velcro ou encore de lacets permettant de l'ajuster autour de la partie de la jambe située sous le genou. Les protections s'enroulent autour de la jambe Le cône ainsi formé est clos à l'aide d'une fermeture à glissière, d'un velcro ou de lacets Une bande élastique verticale peut être posée le long de la fermeture à glissière afin de mieux s'ajuster autour du mollet, une taille s'adaptant par la même à des mollets de hauteur fixe, mais de circonférence variable. This piece can also be provided with an inverted U-shaped cut to better land on the kick part of a high shoe, commonly called "boots". The general shape is a trapeze with some sides can be curved to better fit the shape of the leg and equipped with a closure system such as a zipper, a velcro strip or laces to adjust it around the part of the leg below the knee. The protections wrap around the leg The cone thus formed is closed using a zipper, Velcro or laces A vertical elastic band can be placed along the zipper to better fit around the calf, a size adapting by the same to calves of fixed height, but of variable circumference.

Ces chaps sont réalisées en cuir naturel, en cuir synthétique ou en toute combinaison de matières offrant à la fois protection de la face interne du mollet et ajustement autour de celui-ci. Il existe également des sortes de protections de bas de jambe, appelées « leggings » et qui sont un cylindre en maille ou en une matière suffisamment extensible pour pouvoir l'enfiler sur la jambe. C'est la distance comprise entre le coup de pied et l'angle formé par le bas du talon et le dessous du pied qui constitue l'extensibilité requise pour enfiler ce type de protections. L'extensibilité du produit devra lui permettre ensuite de s'ajuster autour de la cheville et du mollet. La protection et le maintien en place d'une telle chaps sont généralement insuffisants car pour obtenir une extensibilité suffisante, il faut utiliser des mailles très extensibles qui n'offrent qu'une protection légère et qui de part leur grande élasticité n'ont qu'une faible capacité à rester en place sous l'effet des frottements. La présente invention offre une chaps dont la mise en place est de type enfilage, donc très facile et dont le maintien est aussi bon que celui d'une chaps à mise en place classique. Une chaps selon cette invention peut être réalisée de la façon suivante. Un rectangle de cuir dont certains côtés seront courbés pour épouser au mieux la forme de la jambe sera équipé d'une fermeture à glissière sur toute sa hauteur. Cette fermeture à glissière est installée de façon fixe, de sorte que cette chaps présente une forme de cylindre ou de cône non entièrement ouvrable ou dépliable. Une ouverture complémentaire, également munie d'une fermeture à glissière fixe pourra être posée sur l'appendice avant utilisé pour recouvrir la partie coup de pied. These chaps are made of natural leather, synthetic leather or any combination of materials providing both protection of the inner face of the calf and adjustment around it. There are also kinds of leg protectors, called "leggings" and which are a mesh cylinder or a sufficiently expandable material to be able to put on the leg. It is the distance between the kick and the angle formed by the bottom of the heel and the bottom of the foot which is the extensibility required to put on this type of protections. The extensibility of the product will then allow him to adjust around the ankle and calf. The protection and the maintenance in place of such a chaps are generally insufficient because to obtain sufficient extensibility, it is necessary to use very extensible meshes which offer only a light protection and which by their great elasticity have only a low ability to stay in place under the effect of friction. The present invention provides a chaps whose implementation is threading type, so very easy and whose maintenance is as good as that of a conventional chaps implementation. A chaps according to this invention can be made as follows. A rectangle of leather with some sides curved to fit the shape of the leg will be fitted with a zipper all the way up. This zipper is fixedly installed, so that this chaps has a shape of cylinder or cone not fully openable or unfoldable. A complementary opening, also provided with a fixed zipper can be placed on the front appendage used to cover the kick part.

La combinaison de ces 2 ouvertures permet l'introduction directe de la jambe à l'intérieur de la Chaps. Dans le cas d'une chaps pourvue d'une fente en U inversé sur le coup de pied, on se contentera d'adapter la dimension de cette fente afin de permettre l'enfilage de la chaps, c'est à dire le passage du coup de pied ou de compléter cette fente par une fermeture à glissière ou à velcro pour l'agrandir et permettre l'enfilage par le passage du coup de pied. Le pied ainsi introduit par l'ouverture arrière, la chaps se trouvera mise en place sur la jambe, entre la cheville et le genou. La fermeture de la ou des fermetures à glissières permettra l'ajustement de la chaps autour de la jambe du cavalier. D'autres caractéristiques, détails et avantages de l'invention ressortiront plus clairement à la lecture de la description donnée ci-après à titre indicatif en relation avec des dessins dans lesquels : La figure 1 est une vue de face de l'invention, La figure 2 est une vue arrière de l'invention, La figure 3 est une vue de profil de l'invention La figure 1 illustre une chaps comprenant une partie principale 1 dont la forme est conique et qui ne peut être dépliée grâce à la présence de la patte 2 qui interdit le dés accouplage de la fermeture à glissière 3. Cette fermeture à glissière située dans le plan vertical médian à l'arrière de la chaps permet d'ajuster la chaps autour de la jambe du cavalier, du genou jusqu'à la cheville. Cette fermeture à glissière peut également être située sur le côté ou sur n'importe quel plan vertical intermédiaire entre l'arrière et le côté. Un appendice 4 permet de recouvrir le devant de la chaussure. Cet appendice est doté d'une fente verticale d'une longueur suffisante pour permettre d'enfiler la chaps sur la jambe. Une fermeture à glissière 5 permet de refermer la fente, ajustant ainsi l'appendice 4 sur le coup de pied de la chaussure. Une variante de l'invention consiste en le déplacement de l'ouverture sur un autre plan vertical ou sur la partie principale de la chaps. Bande auto agrippante ou lacets peuvent remplacer les dispositifs de fermeture à glissières. 4 The combination of these 2 openings allows the direct introduction of the leg inside the Chaps. In the case of a chaps provided with an inverted U-shaped slot on the kick, it will be sufficient to adapt the size of this slot to allow threading of the chaps, that is to say the passage of the kick or complete this slot with a zipper or velcro to enlarge and allow threading by the passage of the kick. The foot thus introduced by the rear opening, the chaps will be placed on the leg, between the ankle and knee. Closing the zipper (s) will allow the chaps to be adjusted around the rider's leg. Other characteristics, details and advantages of the invention will emerge more clearly on reading the description given below as an indication in relation to drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a front view of the invention, Figure 2 is a rear view of the invention, Figure 3 is a side view of the invention. Figure 1 illustrates a chaps comprising a main portion 1 whose shape is tapered and which can not be unfolded by the presence of the tab 2 which prohibits the disengagement of the zipper 3. This zipper located in the median vertical plane at the rear of the chaps can adjust the chaps around the rider's leg, knee to ankle. This zipper can also be located on the side or on any vertical plane intermediate between the back and the side. An appendix 4 covers the front of the shoe. This appendix has a vertical slot of sufficient length to allow to put the chaps on the leg. A zipper 5 allows to close the slot, thus adjusting the appendix 4 on the kick of the shoe. A variant of the invention consists in moving the opening on another vertical plane or on the main part of the chaps. Self-gripping tape or laces can replace zipper devices. 4
