Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bridling system for swimming within limited spaces, said system allowing to a user to carry out the movements of each swimming stile in a simple, inexpensive and reliable way.
- T is known that swimming is a very diffused sport.
- swimming pool usually divided in lanes by floating cords and having a variable depth, in which more than one swimmer divides the swimming pool space or, eventually, of the same lane.
- maximum rectilinear length that can be swam by the swimmer depends on the maximum dimension of the swimming pools, usually having a rectangular shape that, for biggest swimming pools (also known as Olympic swimming pools”) is of 50 meters.
- many swimming pools offering swimming courses, both for learning and for practising swimming have the maximum dimension of 25 meters. The above involves the inconvenient that the swimmer must invert the swimming direction each time he has run the maximum length of the specific swimming pool.
- the swimmer divides the same swimming space with at least another swimmer, it is necessary to pay attention during the swimming in order not to interfere with the movements of the other swimmer. This is particularly uncomfortable and causes frequent interruptions when the number of swimmers sharing, e.g., the same lane is higher than two.
- object of the present invention is that of providing a system allowing to the user, in a simple, inexpensive and reliable way, of practising the swimming, even within limited spaces, independently from the crowding of the swimming pool or from its dimensions. It is therefore specific object of the present invention, a bridling system for swimming within limited spaces, comprising bridling means suitable to be put on by at least one user and coupling means, preferably elastic means, suitable to be coupled with the support means and with the bridling means to realise a coupling between support means and bridling means when the user makes swimming movements within the limited space.
- said bridling means comprises a belt.
- said bridling means can provide a ring suitable to receive a hook.
- the belt can slide within the ring.
- the ring can be fixed to the belt.
- the bridling means can provide a pair of braces, preferably crossed each other.
- the bridling means can provide a ring suitable to slide along a braces, or that can be fixed to the pair of braces, preferably in a position corresponding to the rear crossing point of the pair of braces. Still according to the invention, bridling means can provide a further ring fixed to the pair of braces, preferably in a position corresponding to the front crossing point of the pair of braces, and suitable to receive a hook.
- the coupling means can provide an elastic cord.
- coupling means can provide a first hook and a second hook.
- the support means can be comprised of at least one vertical rod and/or at least one wall. Still according to the invention, the support means can provide at least an element fixed to the same means and suitable to receive a hook. Always according to the invention, the support means can be outside or within the water.
- figure 1 shows a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the system according to the invention:
- figure 2 shows a perspective view of a particular of the system of figure 1 in a first arrangement;
- figure 3 shows a perspective view of the particular of figure 2 in a second arrangement;
- figure 4 shows a perspective view of the system of figure 1 during the use by a user;
- figure 5 shows a perspective view of a particular of a second embodiment of the system according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 it can be seen a preferred embodiment of the system according to the invention, comprising a swimming pool 1, having a circular shape and reduced dimensions, a support 2, outside the swimming pool 1, and a belt 3.
- An elastic cord 4 is suitable to be hooked to the support 2, by a first hook 5 coupled with an element 6 fixed to the support 2, and to the belt 3, by a second hook 7 coupled with a ring 8, within which the belt 3 can slide.
- belt 3 is elastically coupled to the support 2 when the elastic cord 4 is hooked to the same.
- the belt 3 is shown open and closed, respectively, said belt 3 being provided with a buckle 9 suitable to allow the blocking of the belt 3 in the closed configuration.
- a buckle 9 suitable to allow the blocking of the belt 3 in the closed configuration.
- a second embodiment of the system according to the invention providing, instead of the belt, a bridling comprising a belt 3', a pair of braces 11 , grossed each other, and a ring 8 fixed to the braces 11 in a position corresponding to their rear crossing point.
- bridling comprises a second ring, not shown, fixed to the braces 11 in a position corresponding to their front crossing point.
- the system allows to swim also within very small dimensions. Further, the system can be used also in public swimming pools, thus allowing to a high number of swimmer to share the same swimming pool without interfering with the movement of the other swimmers, thus avoiding the need of carrying out the inversion of the swimming direction.
- the system allows the execution of each swimming style.
- it is sufficient to make the ring 8 sliding along the belt 3 until positioning it on the belly of the user 10, while for the embodiment of figure 5, it is sufficient to hook the elastic cord to the second ring positioned frontally with respect to the user 10.
- the system according to the invention can be advantageously employed during the learning of the swimming technique.
