Abstract

Loop element (1) for a pole grip (2), in particular on walking sticks, trekking poles, alpine ski poles, cross-country poles, Nordic Walking poles and the like kind of sticks (3) comprising at least one for forming the loop element (1) irreversible or reversible on the pole grip (2) arranged, elastic and / or flexible as well as band or rope-shaped holding means (10), characterized in that the at least one holding means (10) forms a finger loop (100) and at least one further loop (101) which (101) at least for receiving the thumb (40) of a hand (4) is formed and the loops (100, 101) upon receipt of at least one finger (41) and the thumb (40) embracing the stick handle (2) with this hand (4) enable.

Description

Technical area

The present invention relates to a loop element for a pole grip, in particular on walking sticks, trekking poles, alpine ski poles, cross country poles, Nordic Walking poles and the like kind of sticks according to the preamble of the protection claim. 1

State of the art

Loop elements in the form of hand loops for stick handles are known from the prior art, which comprise an elastic and / or flexible holding means arranged irreversibly or reversibly on the stick handle for forming the loop element.

 A disadvantage of the known loop straps is that they are designed such that they enclose the palms over a large area, so have a large contact area between loop band and palm. The design-related fact that commercially available hand loops are usually shaped very far to allow easy insertion of the entire hand, often causes the hold between the hand strap and the hand during use triggers and the stick handle when releasing the hand to Ground is falling.

 In particular, in people who suffer from skin rash, pimples and / or allergies, the most polluted hand straps continue to be a major problem, since they are in contrast to the pole grip by design almost permanently in contact with the hand. Incidentally, this constant contact inevitably leads to extensive sweating between hand and wrist strap.

Presentation of the invention

 The present invention is based on the object to provide a loop element for a pole grip, which eliminates the aforementioned problems.

 According to the invention the above object is achieved according to the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with the characterizing features. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the loop element according to the invention are specified in the dependent subclaims.

 The loop element according to the invention comprises at least one, for the formation of the loop element irreversible or reversible on the pole handle arranged, elastic and / or flexible and tape or rope-shaped holding means. According to the invention, the loop element is characterized in that the at least one retaining means forms a finger loop and at least one further loop, which is formed at least for receiving the thumb of a hand.

 In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the band or rope-shaped holding means made of leather, most preferably made of naturally tanned (untreated) cowhide. The leather strip can be cut to a specific width / length to fit around your thumb and forefinger. In order to ensure an adjustment of the loops for different small / large fingers, it is advantageous to process a (for example, sewn on Velcro strips). Furthermore, of course, other materials are conceivable.

Brief description of the drawings

 Other objects, features, advantages and applications of the loop element according to the invention will become apparent from the following description of an embodiment with reference to the drawing. All described and / or illustrated features, alone or in any combination form the subject matter of the invention, regardless of the summary in individual claims or their dependency.

 In the drawings show

1 the loop element according to the invention on a stick handle in a lateral view;

2 the loop element in the front view;

3 the loop element in perspective view.

Embodiment of the invention

How out 1 as can be seen, this forms at least one holding means 10 the loop element 1 preferably a finger loop 100 as well as a thumb loop 101 , where the loops 100 . 101 when recording at least one finger 41 and the thumb 40 grasping the stick handle 2 with this hand 4 enable.

How out 2 and 3 As can be seen, the loops 100 . 101 for picking up a finger 41 and a thumb 40 preferably engaging openings 1000 . 1010 with different sizes.

The loops 100 . 101 are advantageous from a holding means 10 formed, wherein the retaining means 10 in the at least two loops 100 . 101 by means of a subdivision organ 11 is divided ( 2 and 3 ).

The subdivision organ 11 is according to 2 at the same time for fixing the holding means 10 at the stick handle 2 educated.

Furthermore, it can be seen that the retaining means 10 preferably substantially transversely to the longitudinal direction of the pole grip 2 at this 2 is arranged.

The loop element according to the invention 1 is not limited in its execution to the above-mentioned preferred embodiments. Rather, a variety of design variations are possible, which make use of the solution shown even with fundamentally different type of execution.
