Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of equestrian equipment technology, and in particular to an anti-rolling saddle pad. Background Technology
[0002] Saddles are usually made of hard materials such as wood or fiberglass. If they are in direct contact with the horse's back, they can easily cause wear and tear on the horse's back and cause the rider to experience greater vibration and discomfort. Therefore, a saddle pad is usually placed between the saddle and the horse's back to cushion the vibration and impact between the two, and also to reduce the friction on the horse's back.
[0003] Composite saddle pads are usually composed of multiple materials with different coefficients of thermal expansion. When the ambient temperature changes, the expansion or contraction of each layer of material is different, which generates internal stress. When these stresses accumulate to a certain extent, they may cause the saddle pad to expand and deform outward.
[0004] Currently, saddle pads customized by users according to the horse's body shape do not have anti-rolling measures. After a period of use, the saddle pads are prone to rolling and deformation, resulting in a short service life.
[0005] Meanwhile, the customized saddle pad needs to have a certain amount of space between its front and rear ends and the horse's back to provide ample room for movement of the shoulders and other parts. After the rider places the saddle pad on the horse's back, the saddle seat also needs to be installed. When the rider installs the saddle seat, it is easy to cause the saddle pad to shift or become misaligned, resulting in poor performance of the saddle pad.
[0006] To address this issue, this utility model proposes an anti-rolling saddle pad. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.
[0008] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-rolling saddle pad, including a saddle pad body shaped as an arch, with a tightening mechanism fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the saddle pad body, a positioning block fixedly connected to the outside of the saddle pad body, and an installation protrusion fixedly connected to the side of the saddle pad body.
[0009] The four corners of the saddle pad body are provided with anti-roll shells. The anti-roll shells are L-shaped and are located on the outside and side of the saddle pad body. One side of the outer edge of the anti-roll shell is wavy and the side edge of the anti-roll shell is arc-shaped. The upper and lower ends of the side edge of the anti-roll shell are provided with mounting grooves.
[0010] The outer edge of the anti-roll shell has three positioning grooves. An arc-shaped anti-slip strip is fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer edge of the anti-roll shell. An insert block is fixedly connected to the side of the anti-roll shell, and an arc-shaped support strip is inserted into the inside of the insert block.
[0011] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, a connecting ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the anti-roll housing, and a limit rope is provided on the outside of the connecting ring.
[0012] The technical effect achieved by the above solution is that when the personnel place the saddle pad on the horse's back, the two ends of the limiting rope are tied to the outside of the corresponding connecting rings on the left and right sides of the saddle pad, respectively, to prevent the force of the horse during the movement from causing the saddle pad to deform and curl.
[0013] Preferably, in any of the above schemes, the outside of the positioning block is inserted into the inside of the positioning groove.
[0014] Preferably, one side of the mounting protrusion is connected to the upper and lower end faces of the anti-roll housing by rivets.
[0015] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the tightening mechanism includes two fixing blocks disposed on one side of the saddle pad body, one of which has a positioning soft plate on its top.
[0016] Preferably, one side of the positioning soft plate is fastened to another fixing block, and one side of the fixing block is bonded to one side of the saddle pad body.
[0017] The technical effect achieved by adopting the above solution is that the positioning soft plate is connected to one of the fixing blocks by a buckle, allowing the personnel to adjust the tightness of the positioning soft plate.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0019] 1. Anti-roll shells are installed at the four corners of the saddle pad. The anti-roll shells constrain the edges of the saddle pad. When a force causes the saddle pad to curl, the anti-roll shells will prevent the edges from bending or twisting excessively. At the same time, when the saddle pad is not in use, inserting the bow-shaped support strip into the insert can effectively prevent the saddle pad from curling when it is not in use and is hung to dry. This solves the problem of saddle pads easily curling and deforming after a period of use, and helps to extend the service life of the saddle pad.
[0020] 2. Because the front and rear ends of the saddle pad need to have sufficient space with the horse's back to provide ample room for the movement of the shoulders and other parts, and the saddle still needs to be installed after the saddle pad is placed on the horse's back, the positioning soft plate can be tightened downwards to temporarily position and fix the saddle pad on the horse's back. This prevents the saddle pad from sliding forward and backward and shifting when the saddle is installed, thus solving the problem of the saddle pad shifting forward and backward when the saddle is installed after it has been laid out. This is beneficial to improving the practical performance of the saddle pad.
[0021] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Example 1: As Figures 1 to 5As shown, an anti-rolling saddle pad includes an arched saddle pad body 1. The saddle pad body 1 has a composite layer inside. With the increase of use time and riding frequency, friction between the saddle pad and the horse's back, harness, etc., is inevitable. Even with the protection of the composite layer, long-term friction may cause the edge material to be gradually damaged, thus causing the saddle pad to lose its original anti-rolling performance and roll up. The composite layer inside the saddle pad is a known technology. At present, the technology is very mature. Those skilled in the art can and should understand its specific function and structure, so it will not be described in detail here. The front and rear ends of the saddle pad body 1 are fixedly connected to a tightening mechanism. The outside of the saddle pad body 1 is fixedly connected to a positioning block 2. The side of the saddle pad body 1 is fixedly connected to an mounting protrusion 3.
[0030] Anti-roll housings 4 are provided at all four corners of the saddle pad body 1. The anti-roll housings 4 can withstand various external forces brought about by the movement of the horse and the pressure of the rider, thereby maintaining their support and fixation on the edge of the saddle pad and effectively preventing the occurrence of edge curling and deformation. The anti-roll housings 4 are L-shaped and are provided on the outside and side of the saddle pad body 1. The anti-roll housings 4 are provided on the outside of the saddle pad, and are not provided on the side of the saddle pad that contacts the horse's surface. This is to prevent the anti-roll housings 4 from affecting the comfort of the horse when moving. One side of the outer edge of the anti-roll housings 4 is wavy and the side edge of the anti-roll housings 4 is arc-shaped. The upper and lower end faces of the side edge of the anti-roll housings 4 are provided with mounting grooves 5. When installing the anti-roll housings 4, the personnel align the positioning grooves 6 of the anti-roll housings 4 with the positioning blocks 2 for insertion and positioning. At this time, the mounting grooves 5 of the anti-roll housings 4 will be aligned with the mounting protrusions 3. Then, the personnel use rivets to connect and fix the mounting protrusions 3 and the anti-roll housings 4.
[0031] The outer edge of the anti-roll shell 4 has three positioning grooves 6. An arc-shaped anti-slip strip 7 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer edge of the anti-roll shell 4. The arc-shaped anti-slip strip 7 can improve the stability of the anti-roll shell 4 and the saddle pad body 1, thereby improving the overall integrity of the anti-roll shell 4 and the saddle pad body 1. An insert block 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the anti-roll shell 4. An arc-shaped support strip 9 is inserted into the inside of the insert block 8. The principle of the arc-shaped support strip 9 is based on the elastic deformation characteristics of the material, just like a bow. When it is deformed by external force, stress will be generated inside the material to resist the deformation. When the saddle pad is not in use, inserting the arc-shaped support strip 9 into the insert block 8 can effectively prevent the edge from curling when the saddle pad is not in use for drying.
[0032] The bottom of the anti-roll housing 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting ring 10. A limiting rope 11 is provided on the outside of the connecting ring 10. When the personnel place the saddle pad on the horse's back, they tie the two ends of the limiting rope to the outside of the corresponding connecting rings on the left and right sides of the saddle pad respectively to prevent the force of the horse during the movement from deforming and rolling the saddle pad.
[0033] The outside of the positioning block 2 is inserted into the inside of the positioning groove 6.
[0034] The side of the mounting protrusion 3 is connected to the upper and lower sides of the anti-roll housing 4 by rivets.
[0035] The tightening mechanism includes two fixing blocks 12 disposed on one side of the saddle pad body 1, and a positioning soft plate 13 is disposed on the top of one of the fixing blocks 12.
[0036] One side of the positioning soft plate 13 is fastened to another fixing block 12, and one side of the fixing block 12 is bonded to one side of the saddle pad body 1. The working principle of the fastening connection is a well-known and mature technology, and those skilled in the art can and should understand its specific function and structure, so it will not be elaborated here. By fastening the positioning soft plate 13 to one of the fixing blocks 12, the tightness of the positioning soft plate 13 can be adjusted. After placing the saddle pad on the horse's back, the person manually adjusts the tightness of the positioning soft plate 13 to make it fit tightly against the horse's back. Finally, the person can place and install the saddle on the saddle pad to prevent the person from accidentally laying the saddle. When installing the saddle pad, it is easy to cause the saddle pad to shift or misalign. After the saddle is installed, the positioning soft plate 13 is loosened to prevent it from contacting the horse's back and affecting the horse's comfort during movement. The positioning soft plate 13 is made of polyethylene foam, which has a certain degree of hardness to maintain the arched shape and prevents it from contacting the horse's back and affecting the horse's comfort during movement when the positioning soft plate 13 is not used. At the same time, its good flexibility and elasticity allow it to deform and tighten when tightened, and its cost is also low. It should be noted that one of the fixing blocks 12 is integrally formed with the positioning soft plate 13. During production and processing, the fixing block 12 is connected and fixed to one end of the saddle pad body 1 by adhesive.
[0037] A type of anti-rolling saddle pad works on the following principle:
[0038] First, when installing the anti-roll-up housing 4, the personnel align the positioning groove 6 of the anti-roll-up housing 4 with the positioning block 2 for insertion and positioning. At this time, the mounting groove 5 of the anti-roll-up housing 4 will be aligned with the mounting protrusion 3. Then, the personnel connect and fix the mounting protrusion 3 to the anti-roll-up housing 4 with rivets. The arc-shaped anti-slip strip 7 can improve the stability of the anti-roll-up housing 4 and the saddle pad body 1, thereby improving the overall integrity of the anti-roll-up housing 4 and the saddle pad body 1.
[0039] Then, after placing the saddle pad on the horse's back, the personnel manually adjust the tightness of the positioning soft plate 13 to ensure that the positioning soft plate 13 is tightly fitted to the horse's back. Finally, the personnel can place and install the saddle on the saddle pad to prevent the saddle pad from shifting or misaligning when installing the saddle after laying it. After the saddle is installed, the positioning soft plate 13 is loosened to prevent it from contacting the horse's back and affecting the horse's comfort during movement.
[0040] Finally, when the saddle pad is placed on the horse's back, the two ends of the limiting rope are tied to the outside of the corresponding connecting rings on the left and right sides of the saddle pad to prevent the force of the horse during movement from deforming and curling the edges of the saddle pad. Furthermore, when the saddle pad is not in use, inserting the bow-shaped support strip 9 into the insert block 8 can effectively prevent the edges from curling when the saddle pad is not in use and is being hung to dry.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
