摘要:
Saddle comprising a central part having a top surface for providing a seat to a rider, a lower surface having a curvature for adapting to a back of a horse, elongated pad members coupled to said central part for forming a cushion, connecting places for mechanically coupling a reinforcing member to said central part for imposing a given curvature to said lower surface. The saddle is characterized in that it further comprises a hinge, mechanically coupled to the lower surface of the central part, for facilitating a modification of said curvature, and for coupling a reinforcing member to said central part, said connecting places being located on a portion of the hinge that is accessible from the lower surface of the central part.
摘要:
A system for horseback riding comprising an inverse stirrup which allows a horseback rider to use the top of the rider's foot to resist upward or transverse forces so as to maintain the rider's position on the horse. The inverse stirrup is attached to the horse by a circumferential or semi-circumferential strap passing beneath the horse such as the girth strap, or directly to the saddle, such that the system resists upward displacement of the inverse stirrup.

A foldable stirrup for mounting animals such as horses has a support arm for engagement with a stirrup leather and a base pivotaly coupled to the support arm for supporting a rider's foot while mounting when the stirrup is in an open configuration. The base and the support arm are inwardly foldable together to a folded configuration. A mounting assist strap configured to engage the stirrup and provide a point of securement on the animal to be mounted is provided. Methods of mounting an animal using the foldable stirrup and mounting assist strap are provided.

A system and assembly for providing anti-sway and motion compensation while handling ISO containers in high sea states up to and above sea state four between a lighter or other floating body and a crane ship. The contemplated invention enables the transfer of cargo containers between a container ship and a lighter or other floating body at sea in sea states up to and higher than sea state four by synchronizing the motion of the container and the lighter or floating body.

An saddletree with controlled flexing is disclosed using multiple pairs of wave depressions. One group of wave depressions extends from the edge of the tree toward the central channel. Other waves are on the pommel and within the central channel. The pommel wave positioned along the centerline of the tree contains an ellipse and a pair of slots on either side to control flex. The interior of the central channel is scalloped along a portion of the periphery and a recess is cut into the edge of the pommel. An engineered rail and secondary rail are formed into the underside. The underside of the saddletree is covered with bidirectional carbon weave that extends from the underside to the top surface to overlap on a portion of the top surface.

An animal blanket comprises a main body panel, an underbody panel and a set of fasteners. The main body panel drapes over a back of an animal, such as a horse. The underbody panel extends across a belly of the animal. The first set of fasteners releasably connect the main body panel and the underbody panel. In one embodiment, the main body panel comprises a barrel panel and a neck panel, and the underbody panel comprises a belly panel and a chest panel. A first side of the underbody panel is connected to the main body panel via the set of fasteners. In one embodiment, a second side of the underbody panel is also connected to the main body panel via the set of fasteners. In another embodiment, the second side of the underbody panel is connected to the main body panel via a stitched seam.

There is provided a saddle apparatus comprising a saddle housing comprising external walls, an internal cavity defined by the external walls and a seat portion for seating an animal rider; a container compartment defined within the internal cavity of the saddle housing; a fluid container adapted to be removably mounted inside the container compartment, the fluid container being adapted to store fluid; and a fluid dispenser in fluid communication with the fluid container adapted to allow flow of fluid from the fluid container on the animal when the saddle apparatus is mounted on the back of the animal. The saddle apparatus optionally comprises at least one of a thermometer, a gyroscope, a proximity detector and a camera, a light detector and a lighting device, a weighting device, a heart pulse reader, a user interface and a transmitter. The saddle apparatus also comprises a power supply, preferably a solar-based power supply.

A horse buckle includes a buckle ring seat; a prong movably coupled to the buckle ring seat; an elastic unit arranged between the buckle ring seat and the prong and including an elastic element having two end respectively fixed to the buckle ring seat and the prong, a barrel fit outside the elastic element, and a pin mounted to one side of the buckle ring seat and movably coupled to the prong; and a support unit movably mounted to an end the buckle ring seat. As such, the buckle ring seat is coupled to a girth for use and receives a fastening strap to extend through the buckle ring seat and a restoration spring force of an elastic element makes a prong quickly seated in a positioning hole of the fastening strap.

An equestrian saddle includes a tree made of a substantially rigid material and defining a substantially vertical longitudinal center plane, a seating surface for the user, which is associated to the tree, and a pair of flaps arranged on opposite sides from the vertical plane and connected to the tree in a connection area proximate to the seating surface. Each flap includes at least one edge element having an outer surface with a relatively high friction coefficient for providing a grip on the user's leg. Each of the edge elements at least partially extends toward the connection area and is made of a material having a greater stiffness than the flaps for locally increasing resistance to wear caused by the user's leg rubbing thereon.
摘要:
A stirrup for saddles. The stirrup includes a pair of side members that extend upwardly from opposing sides of a tread. The tread is provided with a forwardly and downwardly slanted orientation. The orientation of the tread places a rider's foot in a heels-up position in which the rider's heel is above the toes. The heels-up position may be beneficial to professional and experienced riders participating in rodeo events like team roping, barrel racing, or other events in which the rider benefits from being in a forward position over or in front of the saddle. A cross-member extends between upper ends of the side members in a non-parallel orientation relative to the tread. The orientation of the cross-member causes the bottom end of the stirrup to list toward the animal to provide a rider with a more natural position when standing in the stirrups.
