Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bit for horses, which consists of a bit rod made of a one-piece molded body, in particular of a resiliently elastic, high-abrasion resistance, deformable by pressure and recovering into its original shape with pressure relief, with an oval or circular cross-section and with ends Corrosion-resistant rings held in perforations for fastening the reins, the molded body being formed by two molded body sections which are connected to one another via a central web and which are provided with flattened horse tongue contact surfaces provided parallel to the longitudinal axes of the perforations.
  • Such a bit for horses is known from DE-Gbm 84 05 615, which is considered in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the narrow web with resilient-elastic properties formed in the molded body of this bit merges into the two lateral molded body sections, which widen conically towards the ends, without the bending region given by the web being limited laterally.
  • the molded body is bent in particular in the area of the central web of the molded body, but the bending area also extends with sections into the area of the two molded body sections adjacent to the web, so that due to a smooth transition of the bending area into the shaped body sections is not guaranteed with certainty that the bending of the shaped body is limited only to the area of the web.
  • a horse snaffle bit emerges, which consists of a possibly divided bracket, each having an annular bore at the lateral ends, through which a ring connected to the snaffle bit extends.
  • the stirrup of this bit is thickened approximately in the middle between the two adjoining areas with soft transitions in order to achieve a better shape adaptation of the stirrup to the mouth anatomy of the horse, so that a command is given by the horse about the thickening in the middle tongue gap can be perceived.
  • a bridle pull exerted on this bit rod leads to a pressure load on the horse tongue, and only in the area of the thickened section of the bit bar, so that the resulting surface pressure can easily lead to blood stasis in the tongue.
  • the thickened central area of this bit does not allow resilient, flexible bending, in order to relieve pressure on the horse's tongue when the reins are pulled. Rather, when the reins are pulled, the bit is bent in the soft transition areas between the end sections and the central reinforced section of the bit, so that there can be pressure in the side area of the horse's tongue, and commands which the horse should execute are therefore not carried out because the tongue pressure causes the horse to react differently.
  • bit in addition, according to a further embodiment of the bit according to EP-A-0 017 959, it consists of two parts of the bit, which are in the center an articulated connection are interconnected.
  • This articulated connection is formed by two interlocking eyelets on the facing bit parts.
  • Such a joint connection with bit rods has the disadvantage that when the reins are pulled, the bit rod bends sharply in the joint area, as a result of which the joint is pressed against the upper palate of the horse's mouth and injuries, including bruising, can occur here.
  • articulations are not able to automatically move the bit from the bent position back to the straight position.
  • a so-called Pelham bit for horses in which the bit rod consists of two interconnected sections which widen conically from the center to the two ends of the bit rod and which have perforations in their end regions, in which corrosion-resistant rings for fastening the reins are arranged. Since the bit rod consists of a metallic molded body which is encased by rubber, the bit rod is rigid, so that it is not possible to bend the bit rod when the reins are tightened, which is also undesirable when using such a Pelham bit. The use of such rigid, non-bendable bit rods often results in the bit rod being pressed against the horse's tongue when the reins are tightened, which can lead to injuries and, in particular, to blood congestion.
  • bit rods for horses consist of a molded body made of rubber and the ends of which have thickenings in which the through holes are formed to accommodate the rein rings.
  • Such a bit has a section with a constant diameter between the spherical ends. If a pull is exerted on the two ends of this bit rod, then the bit rod bends not only in the central area, but the bending area extends over the entire shaped body area between the spherically thickened shaped body ends, so that injuries to the horse's mouth also occur in this case can come.
  • rubber bit bars have a high abrasion effect, so that such bit bars with a chain lengthwise and centrally extending chain, a steel cable or the like. are reinforced and secured, the two ends of this stiffening and securing element are attached to the rein rings.
  • the invention solves the problem of forming a shaped body in a bit for horses in accordance with the type described at the outset such that when the ends of the shaped body are pulled, the shaped body is bent in a predetermined and limited area in order to provide a contact surface despite a certain pressure relief on the horse tongue to be reached on the inner surface of the horse's mouth, which is not exclusively punctiform, but extends over a larger area without the bending area extending into the lateral shaped body sections.
  • the bit has a high abrasion resistance, due to the fact that no machining of the bit by the tongue movement of the horse compared to bits made of rubber or rubber-coated iron bars or steel wires occurs with an abrasion similar to the eraser effect as with an eraser.
  • the shaped body of the bit does not require any additional stiffening elements due to the choice of material.
  • the shaped body of the bit has a resiliently elastic, bendable web or section
  • the bending area or bending zone is limited on both sides of the web by bead-like material reinforcements, if a reins pull acts on the bite bar, only a turn in This central area limited by the material reinforcements is possible, while the lateral molded body sections adjoining the bendable web retain an almost straight shape when the bit rod is bent, which is due to the fact that these molded body sections have a higher bending stiffness than the central web or the central molded body section.
  • the bit is also very tongue-friendly, which is due to the fact that the tongue contact surfaces and the contact surface of the central web or section of the shaped body of the bit between the two material reinforcements are slightly arched; this configuration enables a better distribution of compressive forces on the tongue without, however, an excessive pressure load on the tongue.
  • the bit shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 7 consists of a bit rod which is designed as a shaped body 100.
  • This molded body 100 has a resiliently elastic, bendable central web or molded body section 10, the bending area or bending zone of which is delimited on both sides of the web or section by bead-like material reinforcements 11, 111.
  • These material reinforcements 11, 11 adjoin the end regions 10 a, 10 b of the web 10, i.e. the two material reinforcements 11, 111 limit the bending region of the web 10.
  • These bead-like material reinforcements 11, 111 can extend in a ring over the circumference of the molded body 100; however, there is also the possibility of attaching the material reinforcements 11, 111 in such a way that they are only present on one side of the molded body 100, and preferably as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 on the side of the molded body 100 that bears the horse tongue contact surfaces 21, 121, which are described in more detail below .
  • the molded body sections 20, 120 adjoining the material reinforcements 11, 111 do not take part in a bend when pulling on the ends 100 a, 100 b of the molded body 100, but retain their inherent rigidity and bending rigidity, whereas, on the other hand, only bending in the area of the web 10 is possible.
  • the web 10 has a smaller diameter than the diameter of the molded body 100 in the region of its two molded body sections 20, 120, which adjoin the material reinforcements 11, 111, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 1 and 2 and also from FIG. 7 .
  • the middle web 10 between the two material reinforcements 11, 11 then preferably has arc-shaped indentations on the back and on the front, which are indicated in FIG. 2 at 100d and 100d ⁇ .
  • through-holes 101, 102 are provided, through which rings or ring-shaped elements (not shown in the drawing) are passed, which are used for connecting reins and which are made of corrosion-resistant materials such as chromium, steel or the like. consist.
  • the molded body 100 has approximately oval or circular cross-sections and in the front horse tongue application area on both sides of the web 10 the horse tongue contact surfaces 21, 121, which extend from the material reinforcements 11, 111 to the molded body ends 100a, 100b and which are parallel to the longitudinal axes passed through the through-holes 101, 102 run, and are worked out as sheet-like flattenings from the material of the molded body 100, so that the molded body 100 has flat surfaces as horse tongue contact surfaces.
  • these horse tongue contact surfaces 21, 121 have arcuate indentations 21 a, 121 a, which extend from the shaped body ends 100 a, 100 to the material reinforcements 11, 111.
  • the web 10 In the extension of the two horse tongue contact surfaces 21, 121 between the two material reinforcements 11, 111, the web 10 also has a slightly arched indentation 100d ⁇ on. It is precisely these arcuate indentations 21a, 121a and 100d ⁇ that allow the bit to be adapted well to the anatomy of the horse's tongue, two reinforcing surfaces being formed on the molded body 100 by the material reinforcements 11, 111, while in all other areas of the bit the tongue is relieved of any pressure from the bit is.
  • the molded body 100 consists of an abrasion-resistant plastic, in particular a rubber-elastic plastic, such as a crosslinked polyurethane elastomer, but other suitable plastics, which in particular have the properties of a crosslinked polyurethane elastomer, can also be used to produce the molded body 100.
  • a crosslinked polyurethane elastomer for the production of the molded body 100 gives it an elasticity which has different sizes in the individual regions of the molded body due to the different design of individual molded body sections.
  • the web 10, which is smaller in diameter than the shaped body sections 20, 120, has a high elasticity with a resilience, so that the bent web 10 springs back into its starting position shown in FIG. 1.
  • the shaped body sections 20, 120 have larger diameters following the material reinforcements 11, 111, as a result of which the inherent rigidity and greater bending rigidity of the shaped body sections 20, 120 is achieved. Due to the elasticity of the web 10 in the area between the two material reinforcements 11, 111 it is achieved that when the ends of the molded bodies 100a, 100b are slightly bent towards one another, these ends are automatically returned to the extended position, however, even with a slight tightening of the reins, only a slight bending of the molded body 100 is possible in the region of the section between the two material reinforcements 11, 111.
  • the material reinforcements 11, 111 can be formed at the same time during the production of the molded body 100; However, there is also the possibility of subsequently attaching the material reinforcements 11, 111 to the molded body 100 or of subsequently forming them from a molded body produced. By means of these material reinforcements 11, 111, the bending area of the molded body 100 is limited in its central region.
  • the size and length can be determined by the respective arrangement and assignment of these material reinforcements 11, 111, in particular to the length of the molded body 100, and with a correspondingly selected distance between the two material reinforcements to specify the bending area of the molded body 100;
  • the molded body sections 20, 120 adjoining the material reinforcements 11, 111 do not themselves take part when the molded body 100 is bent, since the bending zone in the central region of the molded body 100 is limited by these material reinforcements 11, 111, which expand the bending area via the material reinforcements 11, 111 when the molded body is bent 100 prevent in the areas of the molded body sections 20,120.
  • the bending area between the two material reinforcements 11, 111 extends in the area approximately over a length of 4 cm, wherein the diameter of the web can be about 1 to 1.3 cm.
  • the molded body 100 consists of a resilient, elastic plastic which can be deformed by pressure and which reverts to its original shape when the pressure is released, e.g. a polyurethane, a cross-linked polyurethane elastomer or a thermoplastically processable polyurethane elastomer (thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer).
  • a resilient, elastic plastic which can be deformed by pressure and which reverts to its original shape when the pressure is released, e.g. a polyurethane, a cross-linked polyurethane elastomer or a thermoplastically processable polyurethane elastomer (thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer).
