L'invention concerne un étrier d'équitation de sécurité comportant une boucle (1) apte à être attachée à une étrivière, un étrier présentant une forme générale d'arceau dans lequel un cavalier introduit un pied dans une direction d'introduction sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan contenant l'arceau, avec un plancher en partie inférieure, sur lequel un cavalier peut poser le pied, et au moins une branche latérale (21, 22) reliant ledit plancher à une tête (23) de l'étrier, et un dispositif de solidarisation de la tête (23) de l'étrier à la boucle (1), apte à autoriser une désolidarisation totale de l'étrier par rapport à la boucle (1) en cas de chute. Selon l'invention, le dispositif de solidarisation comporte un mécanisme (3) de clippage de l'étrier à la boucle (1) comportant au moins un élément élastique (31) apte à coopérer avec au moins un relief (13, 14) prévu sur une surface correspondante pour empêcher un déclippage de l'étrier par rapport à la boucle (1); et une extrémité inférieure de la boucle (1) et la tête (23) de l'étrier coopérant selon des surfaces de glissement (11a, 12a, 27) de profil courbe pour permettre, avant déclippage et/ou désolidarisation totale de l'étrier et de la boucle (1), une rotation relative de l'étrier et de la boucle (1) dans ladite direction d'introduction d'un pied du cavalier dans l'étrier. The invention relates to a safety riding stirrup comprising a loop (1) adapted to be attached to a stirrup, a stirrup having the general shape of a hoop in which a rider introduces a foot in a direction of introduction substantially perpendicular to the stirrup. plane containing the arch, with a floor in the lower part, on which a rider can put his foot, and at least one side branch (21, 22) connecting said floor to a head (23) of the stirrup, and a device for securing the head (23) of the stirrup to the buckle (1), capable of allowing complete separation of the stirrup from ...

Stirrup safety structure

The present invention relates to a stirrup safety structure, which is integrally formed and mainly composed of pedals and inverted U-shaped suspension locking racks. Wherein, appropriate number and shape of troughs are engraved on the pedal to limit the sticking on of mud. Moreover, a stopper ring is respectively set at the prefixed position of the lower section lying in between both ends of the suspension rack; appropriate numbers of movable pulleys are set at the lower rod between said stopper ring and pedal; said movable pulleys have the effect of free rotating. Hence, when a horse-rider falls down from the horseback, said movable pulley can enable the rider to free slip and withdraw his feet from stirrup smoothly, by means of said movable pulley's rubbing and revolving with the rider's feet and the momentum caused by the horse's running, to avoid his feet being hooked by the stirrup. Therefore the present invention can solve the problem of a horse-rider's being dragged along by the horse and get hurt when he falls down from the horseback and, therefore, becomes a simple and effective safety protection device.

Stirrup with footrest having a gas filled shock absorber

A stirrup includes an elongated footrest as well as a hanger for suspending the stirrup from a saddle. The footrest and the hanger can pivot relative to one another on an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the footrest. A shock absorber is provided for the footrest and has spaces for anchoring the shock absorber to the footrest. The footrest, in turn, has anchoring members for the shock absorber.
