Description;;

The invention is based on a handle according to the preamble of claim 1.

We know ski poles on the upper end of which a handle made of, for example, a rubber material is pressed is and is held by a screw which is pressed axially from above into one in the end of the ski pole Plug is screwed. This screw also creates a loop made of a solid strap or at the top end attached to a supple ribbon. The loop is placed around the wrist and serves to secure the stick, so that this is not lost when the handle, e.g. in the event of a fall, the hand slips away.

One of the improvements that has already been made to such handles is adding a collar to the bottom End of the handle on which the hand can support itself downwards. Furthermore, one already knows about the shaft of the handle transversely arranged sills to accommodate the skier's fingers; this means that the skier has the stick safer in the Handle.

However, the loops of the well-known ski poles have i.a. the following disadvantages: The loops, which are usually made of leather, are difficult or impossible to change in length; they twist with every turn of the stick, when the stick slips out of the skier's hand, are therefore stretched and eventually wear out in use and soon be damaged.

The object of the invention is to counteract this by means of an improved handle.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by means of a handle solved with the features specified in claim 1. Advantageous further developments of the inventive concept are the subject of the subclaims.

The teeth listed in claim 3 cause that with This toothed end of one band finds a good grip in the slots of the other band and an unintentional one Loosening the connection of the two bands is practically impossible.

The advantage of the measure according to claim 4 is that a change in the length of the loop is easily possible. The extent of the possible change in length is determined by the Length of the row of teeth.

The advantage of the measure according to claim 5 is that the diverging bands can be twisted and joined together to form a loop more easily than if the bands grow parallel out of the shaft.

A preferred embodiment is shown in the accompanying drawing and is described below.

Έ ig. 1 is a perspective view of a handle for a ski pole, and

]? i g. 2 is a plan view of the handle when disconnected Ribbons.

The handle 1 is for example made of plastic, rubber or the like. shaped and consists among other things of a shaft 2 with transversely

809836/0661

running grooves 3 for the fingers through which the handle 1 lies comfortably and securely in the skier's hand. To support the edge of the hand, a collar 4 is provided at the bottom of the shaft 2. In the shaft 2 there is a blind hole running from bottom to top, with which the handle 1 over the upper The end of the ski pole can be pulled over.

A loop 12 is provided on the upper part 5 of the shaft 2, which is molded in one piece with the shaft 2 and grows laterally out of this. The loop Ί2, its training An integral part of the invention is wrapped around the skier's wrist and is intended to prevent the loss of the ski pole prevent it from slipping out of the skier's hand.

The loop 12 consists of two bands 6 and 7 »which grow out of the upper part 5 of the shaft 2 and their free ends and 9 are provided with means for interconnecting. The elasticity of the plastic or rubber material used makes it easy to connect the bands 6 and required rotation of the bands 6 and 7 (Fig. 1).

809836/0661

To connect the bands 6 and 7, a row of teeth 10 is provided at the end 8 of one band 6, while the End 9 of the other band 7 with transverse slots

11 through which the end 8 of the first band 6 is pulled; because of the teeth 10, the end becomes 8 of the first band 6 held lightly in the slots 11 =

The number of teeth 10, the effective front side of which can be seen in FIG. 1 and the rear side in FIG. 2, is so large that an adjustment of the length of the loop to a sufficient extent

12 is possible.

As FIG. 2 clearly shows, the two bands 6 and 7 form where they grow out of the upper part 5 of the shaft 2, an acute angle with each other; this makes them easier to twist and join together to form loop 12 (Figo 1) «

The material is chosen so that on the one hand it gives the shaft 2 sufficient strength and rigidity, on the other hand the But loop 12 is so elastic and pliable that both the straps 6 and 7 are easily twisted and the load from the skier's wrist is easily absorbed
