FR2583987A2 - Device for the intermediate fastening of mini-skis onto a ski - Google Patents

Abstract

A device for the intermediate fastening of mini-skis 41 and 42 onto a support 4 described in the main patent, filed on 31 October 1984, comprising two mini-skis 41 and 42 fitted, at the front, under a small bar 45 fastened onto the support 4 and locked at the rear by means of two fastenings of the ski-boot-fastening type.

Description

"Intermediate attachment device for mini-skis on a ski"
The present invention is an addition to the system "Intermediate binding device for boots on a ski", the patent application for which was filed under number 8,416,729 on October 31, 1984.

 The device presented in the patent includes a sole fixed to the ski, two supports and the floor carrying the shoes. The improvement is intended to fix on the floor no longer the shoes but two very short mini-skis of about 60 cm who in turn wear the shoes.

 The attachment device for mini-skis can have many variant embodiments.

In an alternative embodiment, the mini-skis are slid at the front into a recess corresponding to their shape
Until their front blocking by a stop fixed on the 'nini-SkiS, the arrribre blocking is then carried out, by folding the mini-ski on the floor, by release of a rear fixing of the type allowing to fix the of ski boots.

The present invention will be better understood on studying a variant embodiment described by way of non-limiting example and illustrated by the drawing in which t
FIG. 1 represents an elevation view of an intermediate fixing device according to the present invention mounted on the floor of the patent device to which this certificate is attached.

 FIG. 2 represents a top view of the device represented in FIG. 1.

 The main patent device is shown in its upper part and referenced 4.

 The device comprises at the front the bar 45 of rectangular parralelipid shape hollowed out by two circular recesses in which the cylindrical stops 43 and 44 will be housed screwed in the mini-skis 41 and 42 by the screws 55 and 56. The bar 45 is screwed onto the support 4 by the screws 57 and 58 and raised by the height of the mini-skis 41 and 42 by the wedge 50 whose length is ocelle of the bar 45 and the width of the spacing of the two mini-skis 41 and 42.

 At the rear of bindings 51 and 52 of the shoe binding type. ski screwed on the support 4 maintain the mini-skis 41 and 42 by means of wedges 63 and 64 whose slightly rounded fcr @ e adapts to the shape of the bindings 51 and 52, the wedges @ 63 and 64 are screwed onto the mini-skis 41 and 42 by the screws 59, 60, 61 and 62.

 On the mini-skis 41 and 42 are fixed the bindings of the ski boots 46, 47, 48 and 49.

 The trigger function under the effect of a load of the ski bindings 51 and 52 not being useful, these can be replaced by other devices ensuring the same blocking of the mini-skis 41 and 42 with quick opening.

 In an avtr @ v @ riant of @ é @ lisation the device will include at the rear a call of cylindrical shape screwed on each mini-skis 41 and 42 which fits into a piece screwed to the support 4 for each mini ski, c @@ assembly ensuring the blocking of the lateral mini-ski, around and behind.

 A L "before a bar @@ to of parallel rectangular shape @@ raised relative to the support 4 by a thickness gauge of the height of the mini-skis 41 and 42 and visóe in the support 4.

 A wedge screwed to each mini-ski in the form of c @ sre av @@ a variable thickness forming an inclined plane, this wedge block will be screwed onto each mini-ski in such a way that it ensures the blo.

ca? e mini-ski forward by pressing on the bar 45 at the incline plane is directed towards the middle of the support 4
An orochet mo @ le around a horizontal axis dens the direction of the greatest length of the support 4 and recalled by a spring for orochetting down; a rod extending the hook on the other side of the axis to raise the crcoh @ t.

 The front blocking of the mini-ski will then be carried out with the following saunière the mini-ski is inserted between the support 4 and the bar 45 and pushed towards the center of the support, the hook moves on the inclined plane of the wedge and redesoes behind colleci recalled by the spring and thus ensuring the blocking @@@@ ral, the blocking in height and towards the front being ensured by the wedge and bar assembly 45.

 To release the mini-ski, lift the hook by pressing on the rod which extends it on the other side of the axis of rotation, the front being unlocked, you can then rotate the mini-ski and take it out of the support. 4.

 Many other alternative embodiments are possible without departing from the scope defined by the claims.

Claims (4)

 1. Device according to claim No. 1 of the priez cipal patent filed on October 31, 1984 under the number 8 416 729 oaractérisé by the wait that on the floor of the support 4 there is a device for fixing and quick release of two mini-skis 41 and 42 .  2. Device according to claim i characterized in that the rear locking of mini-skis 41 and 42 is ensured either by rear bindings of ski boots 51 and 52 working on cleats 53 and 54, or by a system ie blocking allowing quick release of mini-skis 41 and 42.  3. Device according to claims 1 and 2 characterized in that the front support of mini-skis 41 and 42 can further be achieved either by the passage of the mini-ski in a space made in its dimension by the support 4 on the one hand and the bar 45 on the other hand, the mini-skis 41 and 42 being limited in front displacement by the stops 43 and 44 screwed on the mini-skis 41 and 42 either by any other means ensuring the same height locking functions, lateral and forward.  4. Device according to claim 1 characterized in that the front blocking can open to release the miniskis 41 and 42, the rear then being able to besides simply fitted into a piece screwed onto the support 4 whose shape corresponds to the caleo 53 and 54
