Definitions

  • AWE/Wm? M94455 Courr r GRIP FOR SKI-STICKS AND THE LIKE Ski-sticks are provided at their upper end with a grip carrying a looped tassel.
  • the tassel-carrying grips produced hitherto the tassel has its two strands applied together and secured together to the upper end of the grip and the skiers hand extends entirely through the loop constituted by such a tassel which hangs thus off the skiers wrist.
  • the present invention has for its object an improved tasselcarrying grip which removes this drawback.
  • Said grip is accordingly engaged at its lower end by one strand of the tassel the other strand of which is secured as usual to the upper end of the grip.
  • the tassel forms only one half of the loop which is to be engaged by the skiers hand so that the latter may hold the grip fast.
  • This arrangement cuts ofi the risk of the skier being caught by the ski-lift if he drops ofi' the latter his hand releasing naturally the tassel as soon as a traction is exerted on the ski-stick.
  • the first mentioned strand of the tassel may be secured to the lower end of the handle but in a preferred embodiment, said strand extending upwardly within a recess in the grip which recess is also engaged by the actual stick; in this case the ends of the two tassel strands can be secured by the same means to the upper end of the grip.
  • FIG. I is a sectional longitudinal view of the grip.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate the manner of holding a ski-stick provided with the grip shown in FIG. 1.
  • the grip is provided with a blind axial bore 2 in which the ski-stick 3 is to be fitted (see FIGS. 2 and 3).
  • the tassel 4 is of the type wherein the length of the loop is adjusted by a buckle 5.
  • One of the strands 4a of the loop engages through its free end a transverse slot 6 extending across one side of the upper end of the grip 1 and it is secured to the latter by means of a screw 7.
  • the other strand 4b of the loop extends upwardly inside the recess 2, so that its end abuts against the upper closed end of said recess to which it is secured by the same screw 7 as the first-mentioned strand.
  • the skier When using such a grip and tassel the skier inserts his hand within the half-loop formed by the tassel 4 but only over four fingers, leaving the thumb outside as an abutment for the tassel (FIGS. 2 and 3), the skiers hand grasps thus energetically the grip, but releases immediately and naturally the tassel whenever a traction is exerted on the ski-stick 3.
  • a grip system for ski-sticks comprising a grip body adapted to be rigidly secured to the upper end of a stick and a tassel including two strands the ends of which engage respectively the upper and lower ends of the grip body to form with the latter a gap adapted to be engaged by the skiers hand grasping the grip, the grip having a downwardly open blind axial bore adapted to be engaged by the upper end of the stick and by one strand of the tassel, the end of which is secured to the upper end of the blind bore.
  • a grip system as claimed in claim 1 and means extending through the upper closed end of the bore to secure to the opposite sides of said closed end the ends of the corresponding tassel strands.
