Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] Even in strong winds, it is possible to control the sail by hand and reduce the burden on the wind pressure without using a commercially available harness. [Structure] A pad 1 is provided so as to be able to come into contact with the inside of a wrist r, and the pad 2 has a support 2 formed on a hook 2b whose front side can be hooked on a boom b of a sail. The base portion 2a is pivotally attached and a wrist wearing band 4 is attached.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a windsurfing hand harness that is directly hooked to a sail boom.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Windsurfing is a sport of sailing while holding a boom and manipulating the sail, and a boom-holding rope called a harness line is attached to the sail boom in a ring shape. First, hold the boom and start sailing only with your hands.When the sailing becomes stable to a certain extent, hook the harness line on the hook attached to your waist, and the wind pressure that you used to rely on only your hands to reach your waist. It is distributed so that sailing can be done easily.

By the way, when sailing for a long time with only the hands, the hands and arms become tired especially on a strong wind day, so it was the harness that was considered to cover this. As the harness, a waist harness with a hook attached to the waist or a bucket harness is used.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 It is difficult to hook the harness line on the hook without using hands while sailing, which is almost impossible for beginners. Also, since the wind is not constantly blowing, considerable skill is required to control the sail with your hands and waist in the ever-changing wind. On the other hand, even for a skilled worker, sail control is often rough, and sailing can be done correctly and quickly by sailing only by hand without using a harness.

Further, when the harness is not needed, the harness line may get caught in the hook and become an obstacle. The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object thereof is to easily perform sail control and reduce a burden on a hand without using a commercially available harness even in a strong wind. To provide such a hand harness.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the windsurfing hand harness, which is a feature of the present invention, is provided with a pad board that can be brought into contact with the inside of the wrist. The base portion of the support body formed on the free hook portion is pivotally attached and a wrist wearing band is attached.

[0007]

[Action]

 It is attached to the wrist with a band, the hook is hooked to the boom of the sail, and the boom can be gripped from above to sail, so it is possible to control the sail with only the hand, of course, with the hook It is possible to reduce the hand load on the wind pressure.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. Reference numeral 1 denotes a pad plate made of a synthetic resin plate, a light metal plate, or the like, which is formed in a shape (rectangular in the case shown) capable of contacting the inside of the wrist r (see particularly FIG. 2).

One side edge of the pad 1 is formed in a bearing portion 1a, and the base portion 2a of the support 2 is pivotally attached to the bearing portion 1a, and 3 is its pivot axis. The front side of the support body 2 is formed with a hook portion 2b which can be hooked on a boom b of the sail s (see especially FIGS. 2 and 3). Further, the pad 1 is provided with an insertion hole 1b, and the wrist wearing band 4 is inserted into the insertion hole 1b to form a hand harness.

In the above structure, the support 2 is made of a hard synthetic resin, while the band 4 is made of a tough material, and both ends of the band 4 can be easily fastened and removed with a magic tape. A fastening portion (see FIG. 1) 5 such as (registered trademark) is provided. A backing made of a flexible material may be provided on the back surface of the backing board 1 in contact with the wrist r, if necessary.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 The present invention is as described above, and the conventional harness can be integrated with the hand, so that the sail control is facilitated and the presence of the hook can reduce the burden on the hand against wind pressure. In addition, when the hook is not needed during sailing, the hook is removed from the boom and rotates by its own weight and hangs down. , Its practical value is enormous.
