Definitions

  • the invention relates to a foot strap for a sailing board, consisting of a loop band which bulges between two holders which can be fastened to the board surface at a spacing from one another and which is adjustable in its arch length and preferably has a padding.
  • the foot straps mounted in a suitable position on the sail board are intended to help the sailor to have a good grip and to be more stable, so that a proper fit of the foot in the foot straps plays an essential role.
  • the foot straps which consist of a plastic band and usually a neoprene padded hose that is attached to the plastic band, must therefore be adjustable to adapt the loop width to the foot, which is why loosening, adjusting and closing the loop band in each case in the case of one-piece loop bands is anchoring, which not only means that it is not easy to adjust the length, but above all also requires laborious, lengthy handling, only allows gradual adjustment and also a check of the fit during adjustment excludes the process.
  • the loop straps have so far mostly been made in two or three parts, so that the strap parts and the like by means of nub or Velcro fasteners. can be connected in different lengths.
  • the handling of the loop band for adjusting the loop width is still quite cumbersome, especially in the presence of an upholstery hose, since before the upholstery hose has to be pushed back or opened, the band parts are opened and closed in the desired position and the padding is in order again must be brought before the fit can be checked. If the seat is unsatisfactory, the entire adjustment process must be repeated. The adjustment of the loop size therefore remains difficult and usually requires the loop straps to be adjusted several times.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to remedy these shortcomings and to create a foot strap of the type described, which can be produced and assembled with little effort and which is characterized above all by its simple and skillful, stepless and far-reaching adjustability.
  • the invention solves this problem in that at least one of the two holders forms an eyelet for pulling through the child associated with this holder, which ends in a free flap, which flap can be folded up and folded over the holder and in the arch area on the top of the loop band or its padding can be fixed in different locking positions.
  • To adjust the foot strap therefore, only the strap needs to be loosened and the strap width to be adapted to the foot inserted into the strap by tightening or moving the strap to a greater or lesser extent, whereupon by clasping pen and reclosing the tab on the top of the strap or upholstery, the strap is precisely adjusted and adjusted to the respective foot. Adjusting the loop does not require any fiddling with the upholstery and leads to the correct loop size due to the direct adjustment of the loop to the foot used.
  • the band and holder leave every possibility for the design and choice of upholstery, the band, the type of closure and the like. open and allow for considerable simplifications and improvements of this upholstery, for example, precisely because of the adjustability independent of the upholstery.
  • the loop band is composed of two band parts overlapping one another along the entire arch region, the band parts fastened at one end each having a flap on the other side and the holders fastening the end of one band part forming an eyelet for the flap of the other band part.
  • tape parts lie flat against each other in the overlap area and are with interlocking sliding guides provided that the belt parts do not slide sideways under heavy loads and that the belt is always properly positioned with easy movement.
  • Velcro fasteners are provided for fixing the tabs to the top of the loop band or upholstery in a manner known per se, since this further simplifies the opening and closing of the tabs and thus the adjustment of the loops and a stepless adjustment over the entire adjustment range Adjustment is guaranteed.
  • a particularly easy-to-use, infinitely adjustable and exactly adaptable to the respective foot shape foot strap 1 consists of a one-piece plastic loop band 2, which by means of two holders 3, 4 in a corresponding position on the top of an only indicated sail board S is attached.
  • the holder 3 serves to firmly anchor one end of the band, while the other holder 4 forms an eyelet 5 for pulling the other end of the band ending in a free tab 6.
  • the tab 6 By pushing the tab 6 back and forth, the length of the loop band 2 bulging between the holders 3, 4 can be changed, and the set loops by folding the tab 6 up and down and fixing it with the top of the band set size.
  • the mutually assigned surfaces of the tab 6 or the band 2 are provided with parts of a Velcro fastener 7, 8, so that the tab 6 can be attached to the loop band 2 in any closed position and can also be opened and closed with a handle.
  • the foot strap 1 can therefore be adjusted quickly and skillfully, the foot being inserted into the strap 1 so that the desired loop length can be removed directly from the foot and an exact adjustment is immediately guaranteed.
  • the provided padding for example a pad layer 9 glued to the inside of the band, remains unchanged when the loop 1 is set, any subsequent impairment of the loop fit by the padding is also ruled out; on the contrary, the padding 9, its location, shape, arrangement u. The like. Is necessarily taken into account when adapting the loop to the respective foot.
  • the foot strap 10 is composed of a two-part loop band 11, 12, the band parts 11, 12 of which overlap flatly along the entire arch area and engage with one another by sliding guides 13.
  • the strap parts 11, 12 are each firmly anchored to the sail board S at one end and have straps 14, 15 at the other end, the holders 4 for the one strap the fixed anchorage and for the other strap the eyelet 5 for pulling the corresponding strap 14, 15th form.
  • the band parts 11, 12 are therefore displaced relative to one another along the sliding guides 13, with the result that the arch length is changed and the desired adjustment of the foot strap 10 is achieved.
  • the foot loop 10 shown is provided with an upholstery hose 16 as padding, which in turn opens via a Velcro fastener 17 and can be closed, which simplifies the assembly or replacement of the padding which can also be fastened with the holders 4.
  • Velcro fasteners 7, 8 the closure parts 7, 8 of which are arranged on the one hand on the tabs 14, 15 and on the other hand on the top of the padding 16.
  • Fig. 3 shows the foot strap 10 in use, it is sufficient to readjust the foot strap 10 to open one or both tabs 14, 15 and to adjust the loop with the cushioning hose 16 to the foot placed in the loop 10 by appropriate displacement. Folding down and fixing the tabs fixes the foot strap 10 in its new position and the desired adjustment is given. Opening the upholstery hose 16, which indicates FIG. 2 to clarify the loop construction, is completely unnecessary for the adjustment of the foot loop 10.
