  • Patent number: 10214412
    Abstract: Stirrups for horseback riding which include a tread for the support of the foot and an arched structure that extends from the ends of the tread for connection to a stirrup strap. The arched structure may be formed by two stirrup arms, each forming, in a single body with said arm, a half-ring lying in a plane substantially orthogonal to the plane in which said arched structure lies. The half-rings of said stirrup arms are brought together with each other to form a stirrup ring suitable for being passed through by the stirrup strap.

  • Patent number: 9950919
    Abstract: Bits for horses are provided which include a central element, suitable for being inserted in a horse's mouth, a pair of lateral rings, each connected to a respective end of the central element for connection to the reins, and a pair of rosettes for protecting the horse's lip, each traversed by an axial hole to be fitted around the central element, next to the connection to the ring. The axial hole is made in an emerging portion axially facing at least the side opposite the lateral ring. The wall which delimits said axial hole may be sized to provide a stable connection due to the friction between the rosette and the central element.

  • Publication number: 20170001855
    Abstract: The invention relates to a riding girth comprising a central portion (10) from which two lateral bands (12) extend suitable to encircle the chest of the horse up to the connection to the saddle. On the outer side of the central portion (10) a coupling element (14) is made for attaching the loop of a strap of the martingale, harness or other operating instrument. Said coupling element (14) comprises a base (16) and a plate-shaped elastic hook (18) which extends from said base (16) and which permits the insertion/extraction of the loop of the strap into and from the coupling element thanks to the elastic lifting of an end portion thereof relative to the base (16).

  • Publication number: 20160340172
    Abstract: Under-saddle (1) comprising a flexible base (2) which defines a pair of base surfaces (4, 4?) separated through the relative thickness (6), and a plurality of separation elements (8, 8?, 10, 10?) which extend from at least one (4, 4?) of said surfaces to distance the flexible base (2) from an opposite abutment surface (12, 12?) in contact with said elements. The separation elements 8, 8?, 10, 10? are reciprocally distributed in such a way that at least a pair of them delimits with the base surface (4; 4?) and with the abutment surface (12, 12?) an aeration chamber or duct (14) open on at least one side. The present invention further relates to a manufacturing method of an under-saddle.

  • Publication number: 20150040524
    Abstract: A saddle cloth includes a flexible base having a first and a second surface separated across the base's thickness. Pillar-shaped elements extend from at least one of the surfaces so as to distance the base from a mating surface that contacts the elements and to create therebetween an air gap. At least one of the pillar-shaped elements is internally hollow, its cavity opening in an opposite direction to the respective first and/or second surface.
