  • Publication number: 20080104934
    Abstract: The invention relates to a riding stirrup, especially provided with a foot assisting mechanism, said stirrup absorbing shocks and vibrations transmitted to the muscles, bones, tendons and joints of the rider. The inventive riding stirrup is ergonomically innovative in terms of the base thereof, and has an innovative anti-blocking system in the form of the structure thereof complemented by a lateral abutment. Said riding stirrup also comprises a supporting structure (1) ending in a square (7) carrying an arrangement (8, 5) which works in rotation on the square (7) in order to form a mini torsion bar, the amplitude of which does not exceed 20 degrees, and an arrangement (3, 6) for actuating the mini torsion bar using the foot, said arrangement enclosing the mini torsion bar. Said system accompanies the foot of the rider and replaces it in the horizontal position by means of a vertical force applied to the front or the rear of the base (3).
