Abstract

The invention relates to a ski vibration damping system with at least one rod (5) which, when installed, is guided along the top of a ski and on the one hand with the ski - preferably at its junction point (44) - and on the other hand with a spring and / or damping element (22) is connected, which is supported, for example, indirectly via a ski binding plate (2) or directly on the ski, to dampen downhill-related vibrations of the ski in its vertical central longitudinal plane. Between the rod (5) and the spring and / or damping element (22) or on the spring and / or damping element (22) there is a travel limit, stop, to limit the deflection movement of the ski by the rod (5). Alternatively, a transmission gear is provided between the rods (5) and the spring and / or damping element (22) or on the spring and / or damping element (22) to extend the deflection path, whereby the spring and / or damping path in the spring and / or or the damping element (22) is lengthened so that the lengthening leads to a progressive increase in the spring and / or damping force. These measures result in better damping behavior and therefore better downhill properties of the ski.

Description

The invention relates to ski vibration damping system with at least one rod (5,6) which is guided in the installed state along the top of a ski (1) (5,6) and at one end with the ski (1) - preferably in its node - connectable and at the other end is connected by means of a spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM), which in turn is directly or indirectly supported on the ski (1) to dampen downhill-related vibrations of the ski (1).

[0002] The structure according to FIG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urGLKYlP_phia skis from the brand Hero Athlete FIS GS DLC and Hero Athlete FIS GS DLC Factory from Rossignol. According to Rossignol's factory information, this is a massive, hydraulic shock absorber that is attached via a rod between the binding and the ski tip, as stated above, in order to significantly increase track control overall, which has the following effects in detail: <tb> • <SEP> There is no counterflex possible - so you can keep the track perfectly. <tb> • <SEP> Stability between the gates is increased (beveled areas). <tb> • <SEP> You gain flex control in the turns <tb> • <SEP> You get an efficient edge grip <tb> • <SEP> The ski shows a lively behavior at the end of the turn

These known shock absorbers are attached to the ski by means of a bearing block in front of the ski binding. The ski boot and binding are mounted on the ski as usual and do not interact directly with the shock absorber device.

Some manufacturers had also tried to support skis in their bending work by applying vibration-damping layers to the top of the ski.

[0005] to longitudinal rods that were mounted on the top of the ski in order to give the ski additional rigidity. However, it was not previously known that these measures were also carried out in connection with a ski binding plate, because it was obviously not recognized that only a relatively stiff ski binding plate is suitable in connection with longitudinal rods that transfer the bending forces from areas of the ski away from the ski binding directly into the Initiate interface for attaching the ski boot and thus allow better ski control for the skier.

The essence of the present invention lies in the knowledge that the vibration damping by the known shock absorbers is only very limited, since the paths that the rod covers when bending the ski are only relatively short.

The object on which the invention is based is thus to improve the operation of such damping systems so that the ski can be better controlled on the descent and therefore better performance, while at the same time shocks and extreme ski bends sprung or be attenuated.

[0008] The object is achieved by the features of the independent claim. Advantageous further developments are set out in the figures and in the dependent claims.

According to the invention, a new ski vibration damping system is created by adding a to the known between the rod (5,6) and the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) or on the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) Path limitation (stop) to limit the deflection movement of the ski (1) by the rod (5,6) is provided, or that between the rods (5,6) and the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) or on the spring - and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) a transmission gear (23) is provided to extend the deflection path, which in the spring and / or damping case causes the spring and / or damping path in the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) is extended, so that in the spring and / or damping case, the extension leads to a progressive increase in the spring and / or damping force. (See in particular Figs. 75,76,77,78,72,73,74,74a, 74b, 81,82)

By restricting the deflection, especially on mogul slopes, it is avoided that the ski bends extremely at each hollow and thus the downhill speed is slowed down.

The stop on the rod is a simple measure. If necessary, shock-absorbing materials can also be interposed there in order to avoid shock-related vibrations in the ski.

If, however, correct shock absorbers are used - as is known per se - the translation causes the effect of the shock absorbers or springs to be improved.

The inventive ski vibration damping system is further improved by the indirect support of the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) in the assembled state via a ski binding plate (2) which extends along and to the side of the center plane (40) and a support device (7,8), compared to a ski (1), is equipped with punctiform front and rear fastening devices (7,8) for fastening the front and rear part of the ski binding plate (2) to the ski (1) (see in particular Fig. 75 , 76,77,78,23,24,25,26,36,37,48,66,81,82)

The inventive ski vibration damping system can be used universally when the rod or rods (5, 6) run parallel to the central plane (40), as is known per se. If necessary, the rods can also run at an angle (43) to the center plane, which is preferably adjustable.

The articulation of the rod (5,6) or the rods (5,6) on the ski binding plate (2) and / or on the spring and / or damping element (22, 22DÄM) is preferably adjustable in height to, if necessary Way to win. (See in particular Fig. 4,48,60,66,80,81,82,83)

The inventive ski vibration damping system can have at least two rods (5, 6) at the front and / or rear of the ski binding plate (2), which are preferably aligned symmetrically or in particular adjustable asymmetrically to the center plane (40). (See in particular Fig. 5,6,10,11,14) This ensures particularly stable lateral guidance of the ski.

The best effect of the new ski vibration damping system arises when the front rod (5) or the front rods (5) have such a length and device that they are in the operating state at their end (9) facing away from the ski binding plate (2) the junction (44) of the ski (1) can be connected, and / or that the rear rod (6) or the rear rods (6) have such a length and device that they are in the operating state at their end facing away from the ski binding plate (2) (10) can be connected to a fastening point (45) of the ski (1) which is located approximately at a distance of 5-15% of the ski length from the ski end (46). ((See in particular Fig. 5,6,10,11,14,75,76,81,82,83)

The ski vibration damping system with a ski binding plate (2) with at least two fastening devices (7,8) below the ski binding plate (2) for fastening the same at its front end and at its rear end on a ski (1) does not have a negative effect the torsional behavior of the ski around its longitudinal axis when the rear fastening devices (8) or the front fastening devices (7) or both fastening devices (7, 8) are arranged exclusively in the immediate area of the center plane (40), the rear fastening devices preferably being provided by a single one Fastening device (8a) are formed through which the central plane (40) extends.

Of course, there is also a structure in which all the fastening devices (7c, 8c) are laterally spaced from the central plane (40).

More preferably, the front fastening devices are formed by a single fastening device (7a) through which the central plane (40) extends. (See in particular Fig. 23,24,25,26)

The ski binding plate can be improved even further if the front fastening devices are formed by two individual fastening devices (7b), one of which runs on one side of the central plane (40) and at a distance from the central plane (40) and of which the other is arranged on another side of the central plane (40) and at a distance from the central plane (40) or that the rear fastening devices are formed by two individual fastening devices (8b), one of which is on one side of the central plane (40) and in a distance to the central plane (40) and of which the other is arranged on another side of the central plane (40) and at a distance from the central plane (40), preferably the two individual front fastening devices (7b) or the two individual rear fastening devices (8b) for universal use are arranged symmetrically - preferably in mirror image - to the central plane (40). (See in particular Figs. 24,25,82).

So far, the opinion has been expressed that it must produce the most stable possible connection between the ski boot and the ski in order to ensure the transmission of forces in both directions as safely as possible. As indicated in FIG. 23, efforts have been made to screw the ski binding plate to the front and rear of the ski, as shown schematically. Fastening devices (7c, 8c), e.g. Screws to the side of the center plane (40) of the ski binding plate, which is usually aligned with the center plane of the ski, spaced apart and connected to the ski at the front and back. This resulted in a secure power connection. Due to its elasticity, any bends in the ski could also take place below the ski binding plate - to a certain extent.

What was overlooked in these considerations and solutions is that the ski is also exposed to relatively strong torsional forces on descent, which lead to a torsion of the ski about its central axis. This torsion is hindered by a conventionally mounted ski binding plate, as the four-point attachment counteracts a twisting twist of the ski in the manner of a bridge construction. In other words, a conventionally mounted ski binding plate also stiffens the ski against torsion.

However, the further development of the invention is based on the fact that a ski canted on the slope allows less speed when descending than a ski that descends parallel to the slope. Therefore, the previous structure or the previous fastening method of ski binding plates in the case of slope conditions that exert torsional forces on the ski leads to a reduced descent speed and possibly increased tilting.

The basic comfort of a very stable power transmission between ski boots and skis thus also led to increased tilting and, associated with this, to a reduction in speed on the descent.

The further development solves the problem of eliminating this disadvantage and of designing the attachment of the ski binding plate so that it hinders the torsional work of the ski as little as possible.

A variant of the structure according to claim 1 is given when the ski binding plate (1) is designed so that it is assigned at least one, preferably at least two parallel rods (6,6), which in the assembled state extend from the node (44) of the ski (1) extend to a fastening point (45) in the rear ski area, the rod (6) or rods (6) having a length and device such that, in the operating state, they are attached to the rear part of the ski binding plate (2) remote end (10) can be connected to a fastening point (45) of the ski (1) which is approximately 5-15% of the ski length from the ski end (46), the ski binding plate (2) on its underside as is designed that the rod (6) or the rods (6,6) can slide relative to the ski binding plate (2) and wherein the rod (6) or the rods (6,6) are designed so that they have a resilient and / or vibration-damping effect exercise the ski or are equipped with a spring (22) or a shock absorber (22DÄM). (See in particular Figs. 13,77,78).

As a result of this construction, the ski binding plate is not supported completely and directly on the ski by means of bars, but it nevertheless interacts indirectly with these bars by e.g. a lifting of the rods from the ski top is limited at a certain ski bend. In this respect, the ski binding plate does not work in a purely static manner, but primarily dynamically with the rods - e.g. Limit bending movements of the ski.

The assembly of a ski binding plate is then on the one hand facilitated, on the other hand also made more flexible if the front and / or the rear fastening devices (7,8) by means of a front and a rear or by means of a common slide (35,36) opposite the Ski binding plate (2) are supported so that the ski binding plate (2) can be arranged so as to be longitudinally displaceable relative to the ski (1), at least one of the carriages (36) being lockable. (See in particular Fig. 84,85,86)

In the unlocked state, the result is that the ski binding plate does not influence any bends of the ski as far as possible, in that the attachment evades by sliding in the event of such a bend.

To improve stability, the front and rear carriages (35,36) can be connected by means of at least one guide shaft (34) each, preferably via two guide shafts (35,36) arranged symmetrically to the central plane (40). (See in particular Fig. 84,85,86)

The ski binding plate (2) should thus be optimally longitudinally displaceable in one of the carriages (35) along the central plane (4) so that, in the assembled state, ski bends in the area of the ski binding plate (2) do not put it under tension.

Such a structure helps the skier to make an optimal longitudinal adjustment of his ski binding relative to the ski in the assembled state of the ski binding plate.

According to a further development, the ski binding plate according to the invention provides that the ski binding plate (2.1) - as known per se - has fastening devices for front and rear ski binding parts (3.4), or that the front and rear ski binding parts (3.4) in one Guide of the ski binding plate (2.2) are integrated and can be locked in a longitudinally displaceable manner. (See in particular Fig. 21.22). The ski vibration damping system is preferred if the front rod (5) or the front rods (5) have such a length and device that, in the operating state, at their end (9) facing away from the ski binding plate (2) they are connected to the junction (44) of the ski ( 1) can be connected, and / or that the rear rod (6) or the rear rods (6) have such a length and device that, in the operating state, they have a fastening point (45) at their end (10) facing away from the ski binding plate (2) ) of the ski (1) can be connected, which is located approximately at a distance of 5-15% of the ski length from the ski end (46). ((See in particular Fig. 5,6,10,11,14,75,76,81,82,83)

For the fastening of the ski binding plate on the ski, the development of the invention recommends the following variants: The fastening devices (7, 8) have fixed bearings, pivot bearings (15), fork bearings (16) or elastic blocks (17), for support against the ski ( 1) or opposite the slide (35.36) and / or the fastening devices (7, 8) have floating bearings, linear guides (18) or roller bearings (19). (See in particular Fig. 43-47)

A ski vibration damping system can be further improved in that the ski binding plate (2) and / or the support rods or continuous rods are equipped with data sensors (3) which preferably generate forces along the rod or rods (5,6) or forces in measure the fastening devices (7,8) and record if necessary. (See especially Fig. 81)

A further development of the inventive ski binding plate results when the rod (5,6) or the rods (5,6) have a cross-section that is round - preferably circular, ring-shaped, angular - preferably rectangular or triangular or layered and made of a break-proof material - in particular made of Kevlar® or carbon fibers. (Fig 61-65)

To significantly reduce the sagging of skis when descending over mogul slopes and thus to increase the descent speed, it comes when, according to a further development of the ski binding plate, at least one front and one rear rod (5,6) are provided, which on the one hand with the Ski binding plate (2) are connected and designed to be articulated to the junction point (44) and to the fastening point (45) and are equipped with a length such that the ski is biased into the negative in the assembled state (at its ends (46, 47 ) is bent down). (See especially Fig. 83)

The ski is pretensioned in the manner of an arc, which is only compensated for by the weight of the skier. This refinement also leads to an improved jump-off property of the ski on the descent, since the ski supports a jump by the skier like a spring.

This structure of a temporary negative bias of a ski by means of rods can also be used successfully regardless of the design of the ski vibration damping system with stops or translations and also - for example in skis without a ski binding plate. It is therefore an invention of its own.

1 shows a schematic side view of a ski 1 with a mounted, novel supported ski binding plate 2, which is supported on the ski 1 downwards, forwards and backwards. It forms a type of bridge construction that is supported on the ski 1 and, like a bridge, is firmly connected to the ski 1 at the support points. As a result, the whole system interacts with the ski 1 and, in the assembled state of the novel ski binding plate 2, the ski 1 with its supports acts directly on the skier via the ski binding plate and the ski binding or via the ski boot - and vice versa. At the same time, this construction supports the ski 1 during descent by the ski binding plate support system and influences its bending behavior. As a result, this leads to a faster descent, since bumps e.g. can no longer be fully extended because the ski 1 can no longer bend fully there. On the other hand, e.g. a control movement by the skier via the ski binding plate 2 is more direct and direct to the ski 1, including the front part of the ski 1 and its rear part. To do this in detail: <tb> <SEP> The ski 1 shown has its ski tip 47 on the left in the picture. To the right of this at a distance of approx. 20-35 cm is its node 44. This point always remains in its zero position even when the ski is vibrated.

At this point of the ski 1 there is a fastening device 9 of a support rod 5, which at the other end is connected via a fastening device 11 to the ski binding plate 2, preferably in an articulated manner. The front area of the ski binding plate 2 is supported with respect to the ski 1 by a fastening device 7. In its rear part, it is also supported with respect to the ski by a fastening device 8. Furthermore, the rearmost end of the ski binding plate 2 is equipped with a further support rod 6 via a fastening device 12, which is fixed on the other end via a fastening device 10 at a fastening point 45 on the ski 1. The attachment point is about 10-20 cm in front of the rear end of the ski 46.

As is known per se, the ski binding plate 2 carries a ski binding 3, 4, which is composed of a front ski binding part 3 and a rear ski binding part 4.

It is not essential to the invention how the ski binding parts 3, 4 are constructed as long as they firmly connect the ski boot to the ski binding plate 2.

The components specified as fastening devices are by no means necessarily constructed identically. In the context of the invention, they are each selected on the basis of their tasks. While the fastening devices 7 and 8 primarily serve to take up the weight of the skier, the fastening devices 9, 10 and 11 and 12 mainly act to transfer ski bending moments into the ski binding plate (2). The fastening devices 9 and 10 have the conventional task of connecting the respective support rod 5 or 6 to the ski; to screw it to the ski, as a rule, while the fastening devices 11 and 12 rather bring about an articulated transfer into the ski binding plate 2 and consequently can be designed more like a hinge. For an optimal configuration, it is provided that the fastening devices 7 and 8 are also designed to be articulated - as will be explained later. It is also conceivable to allow the support rods 5 and 6 maximum flexibility in that the fastening devices 9 and 10 are also designed to be articulated.

FIG. 2 shows the same structure as FIG. 1, but only with a front support via support rod 5. This structure has the effect that the front ski area in particular is supported by the bridge structure and its bending flexibility is restricted, while the rear ski area is its maintains original bending flexibility.

The combination of these two measures results in a novel behavior of the ski for the skier with good cornering behavior and with only moderate suppression of deep ground depressions. For special downhill styles, such as the Schranzhocke this construction is not preferred. For high speeds and frequent use of the Schranzhock, the skier will rather prefer the structure according to FIG. 7 if he likes slalom particularly dynamically at the same time. With this structure, the ski remains “soft” in its front area, which is good for slalom. For pure descent and highest speeds, support on both sides is preferred - as shown in Fig. 1.

FIG. 3 shows a top view of the structure according to FIG. 2 and it can be seen that here only one support rod 5 is arranged in the center plane of the ski. This structure can be used relatively universally and, apart from the combination with the ski binding plate 2 for the bridge construction, is already known per se.

4 shows a top view of the structure according to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, however, with a new type of inclined front support by means of inclined front support rod 5 protruding from the central plane 40. Such a structure can no longer be used universally but a special handling of the ski 1 by, for example Control commands of the skier are asymmetrically transmitted to the front ski area. In this way, a special driving behavior can be generated. If necessary, such a structure can also be used to compensate for any ailments of the skier or in the therapeutic area or for training purposes - e.g. to target specific muscle groups - be used.

In contrast, FIG. 5 shows a top view of a structure with two front, parallel support rods 5, which run on the periphery of the ski 1 and consequently also act well against torsion of the ski 1 in the front area. The advantage of several support rods 5, however, also lies in the lower overall height of each individual support rod 5, since the bending behavior or spring or damping behavior to be achieved is not applied by a single support rod 5 alone.

FIG. 6 shows a further development in plan view which, as an alternative to the structure according to FIG. 5, has two inclined outer support rods 5a, a third central support rod 5 being provided in addition to these two outer support rods 5a. In this embodiment it can be advantageous if the inclination of the outer support rods is adjustable, e.g. indicated in FIG. 4 by the angle 43. In this way, an individual system of action can be created for each skier.

FIG. 8 shows a plan view of the structure according to FIG. 7 and FIGS. 9 to 11 show similar support variants as described above for the front ski part. Of course, within the scope of the invention, the different support variants on the front side can be combined with the different support variants on the rear side. Ideally, it should be left to the racing team or the skier to adapt or equip their skis according to their needs. - Like choosing the right wax or the right ski depending on the slope conditions. The invention makes it possible to obtain different driving properties from conventional skis - by optionally supporting the ski binding plate 2 with its special support variants on the ski 1 - possibly in a modular manner.

12 shows a plan view of an alternative in which a front and a rear support rod (5, 6) are not used, but in which a continuous rod 33 is used, which is attached to the node 44 by means of fastening device 9 and at the fastening point 45 is fastened by means of fastening device 10. The continuous rod 33 is optionally connected to the ski binding plate 2 - preferably on its underside -, for example screwed or welded (not shown) or guided in a guide.

As an alternative, however, it can also run freely below the ski binding plate 2. But even in such a state there is inevitably a cooperation between the ski binding plate and the continuous rod 33, in that the latter comes into engagement with the ski binding plate after a certain ski deflection and thereby becomes a support rod. 13 shows the same structure, but with two continuous rods 33.

Continuous rods 33 could have more cost-effective effects on both areas, front and rear, with only one rod 33. Only one rod 33 and, if required, a spring or damping element are required (see below)

Continuous rods 33 could also be unsecured on the binding plate 2 - as mentioned above - or only be guided in a groove in order to position them in the region of the ski binding plate 2 relative to the center plane 40. The spring and / or damping element could be mounted in the rod 33, in front of or behind the rod 33.

A favorable system could for example be made of high-strength injection-molded plastic, a binding plate and a short rod to the front, in this case not up to node 44. Such a support rod 5/33 could perhaps only be 30cm long and still bring a noticeable improvement (ski 1 swings less into the negative. In addition, it is conceivable to design the fastening device 9/10 on the ski 1 as a block-like elastomer element (in the manner of a silent block) that creates the connection to the rod 5/6/33 and even provides suspension and / or has damping properties. Such a structure offers little possibility of adjustment. Nevertheless, the elastomer element 51 can be selected in a targeted manner in order to influence the suspension and damping of the ski 1.

75-78 show structures in which spring and / or damping elements are combined with support rods 5, 6 or continuous rods 33.

In contrast, FIG. 14 shows a structure according to FIG. 13, but with permanent connection 48 to the ski binding plate 2 being provided so that permanent support and not just an occasional intervention takes place.

This structure can also be combined within the scope of the invention with the structures according to FIGS. 75-78, in which spring and / or damping elements are combined with support rods 5, 6 or continuous rods 33.

FIG. 20 corresponds to FIG. 1 and is shown again in context with the following figures in order to specifically address the problem of ski bindings (3, 4). As is known per se, the ski binding comes adaptively mounted on the ski binding plate above. This can be purely conventional, as shown in Fig. 21, by fastening the ski binding 3⁄4 on the ski binding plate 2.1 or by a novel alternative in which the binding / binding blocks 3, 4 are integrated into the ski binding plate 2.2, for example via grooves 49 in the longitudinal direction, as shown in FIG.

This novel structure saves overall height, material, weight and parts and is faster to assemble. In this way, the regulations of the FIS with regard to the maximum height can be better achieved without losing the adjustability of the ski binding plate 2.2 in terms of height and inclination of the ski binding plate 2.2 (see below in Fig. 35-39).

FIG. 21 shows a side view of a ski binding plate 2 with ski binding with a section through the front jaw 3 as is known per se

22 shows a side view of a ski binding plate 2 with ski binding with a section through the front jaw 3 with a new integrated structure in grooves 49.

23 shows a plan view of a ski binding plate 2 with the symbolically shown conventional front and rear fastening on the ski 1. This structure already brings improvements when it is used together with support rods 5, 5, 33, since these forces the forces from before and / or lead into the same behind the ski binding plate 2 (not shown here). However, this structure limits the torsional ability of the ski 1 below the ski binding plate 2. This disadvantage is remedied by the design according to the invention according to FIG. 24 and / or FIG.

This invention can also be used independently of support rods 5/6 and continuous rods 33.

The exemption of the ski binding plate from the ski and attachment of the support rods 5, 6 to the same still allows high-frequency feedback from the ski. With conventional structures e.g. that of Atomic Redster Doubledeck https://www.atomic.com/de-ch/redsterdoubledec where the stick rests on the ski over a large area while skiing, the drivers speak of a "dead" feeling.

According to the invention, the opposite happens, since the bridge construction. The connection / contact surface of the support rods 5, 6 to the ski 1 is only minimal. The ski 1 is correspondingly “freer” and can thus better follow the slope and the driver perceives the ski 1 better and / or benefits from the more adapted relative position of the ski to the slope.

Frequencies in the range of up to over 200 Hz play a role here.

The choice of the fastening devices 7, 8 within the scope of the invention naturally influences the result. The stiffer the connection, the more the structure is similar in effect to a conventional ski / ski binding structure. The more flexible or "softer" the fastening devices are chosen - e.g. B. via elastic bearings - the "freer" the ski becomes in the area of the ski binding plate 2. This ultimately also leads to a reduction in the risk of breakage for a skier, who benefits from a certain elasticity of the overall system in the event of a fall before the binding is released.

This also applies to a 4-point attachment. The ski 1 can deform significantly better in the bend than with today's binding plates, which lie fully on the ski.

Details of the fastening devices 7, 8 can be found in FIGS. 84 to 86.

In the context of the invention, the terms are to be understood relatively. If e.g. When speaking of a fastening point, this is not only intended as a mathematical point, but also allows a certain spatial extension. E.g. a one-point attachment can also be achieved by two screws, if they are only very close together. In this respect, one should understand support areas under support points. It is crucial that e.g. in the case of a three-point attachment, the extent of the third point is significantly closer to the central plane than the other two points / areas.

24 shows a top view of a ski binding plate 2 with a schematically illustrated new three-point fastening on the ski 1 at the rear, the fastening point of the fastening device 8 lies directly on / in the center plane 40

25 shows a top view of a ski binding plate 2 with a schematically illustrated new three-point attachment on the ski 1 at the front, the attachment point of the attachment device 7 lies directly on / in the center plane 40

FIGS. 26-29 are empty in this application and are reserved for any detailed drawings.

FIG. 30 corresponds to FIG. 1 and is shown again in the context of the following figures, each with an orientation line 50 on the ski binding 3, 4 in order to show the offset of the fastening devices 7, 8 in the context of the following FIGS. 31-37 .

This concerns two to three clearly defined “pivot points” of the ski 1 relative to the ski binding plate 2, which are formed by the fastening devices 7, 8. The articulated connection of the binding plate 2 to the ski 1 is new and offers various advantages which are further improved if the positioning of the fastening devices can be varied or is varied according to individual needs.

A simple adjustability of these points can take place in tests using “slides”. For fixed bearings, the slide / fixed bearing is brought into the new position on, for example, two linear guides (shafts or profiles ”) and screwed back to the ski binding plate (or locked in another way). For floating bearings, the slide is also brought into the new position via linear bearings, but screwed to the base plate on the ski 1 in the new position.

The details of this structure can be taken from FIGS. 84 to 86.

A slide of the floating bearing is left loose with respect to the linear guide, the slide compensates for changes in length when the ski is bent / different bending radii by means of a travel path on the linear guide.

In comparison to current designs, the friction losses are therefore significantly lower, the response is much more precise and, consequently, the driving characteristics are also improved. This structure according to FIGS. 84-86 can in itself also be protected independently of the other features of the invention and is to be regarded as an independent invention.

It should be noted that the binding plates used today have fixed screw holes at one point, the other holes are elongated holes where these movements / linear shifts happen. The ski binding plate thus glides over its entire surface on the ski - possibly through an intermediate rubber layer. According to the invention, however, the ski binding plate 2 is each lifted off the ski 1.

[0088] FIG. 31 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 30 with fastening devices offset under the ski binding

[0089] FIG. 32 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 30 with two offset fastening devices further centrally under the ski binding plate

[0090] FIG. 33 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 30 with a fastening device offset centrally under the ski binding plate 2 and a rear fastening device offset further peripherally

[0091] FIG. 34 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 30 with a fastening device centrally offset under the ski binding plate 2 and a further peripherally offset front fastening device.

These different offsets of the fastening devices 7, 8 lead to the fact that the property of the ski binding plate 2 varies: the more centrally the fastening devices 7, 8 are arranged, the more easy-to-turn the ski 1. The further apart the fastening devices 7, 8 are from one another, the better the skier can initiate turning movements in the ski 1 for the price of the lower turning ability of the ski 1 itself.

The further the fastening devices 7, 8 are arranged to the rear, the better the ski 1 is equipped for the descent, the further forward the fastening devices 7, 8 are fastened, the better the ski 1 is equipped for slalom.

35 shows a variant of the structure according to FIGS. 30-34 in a side view and as a section with distances 13, 14 for inclining the ski binding plate 2 by spacing one or more of the fastening devices 7, 8

The angle adjustment over distances 13, 14 for the targeted introduction of force by the driver in the ski binding plate 2 is an independent idea of the type of ski binding plate attachment or support and of the damping and of the three-point attachment. The inclination of the ski binding plate 2 relative to the ski 1 can be adjusted quickly and easily by means of supports of different heights. This is very helpful on the racetrack, as it can be done very quickly with very little expenditure of time and money. Such settings can compensate for physiognomic differences between different skiers and optimize the introduction of force into the ski by the skier.

FIG. 36 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 35 with distances 13, 14 for tilting the ski binding plate 2 towards the front

37 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 35 with distances 13, 14 for tilting the ski binding plate 2 towards the rear

38 shows annular distances 20 for the inclined or tilted position of the ski binding plate 2

39 shows wedge-shaped distances 21 for the inclined or tilted position of the ski binding plate 2 with a round or angular structure

40 corresponds to FIG. 1, but emphasizes the bridge construction which is formed by the ski binding plate 2 which is also supported several times at the front and rear. This bridge construction is essentially an independent invention, which consists in the fact that a ski binding plate 2 - viewed over the length of the ski - is articulated at at least three points along the ski: at least two articulation points are located below the ski binding plate 2 and at least one articulation point is behind out the front in the node 44 and / or backwards in the direction of the ski end. This form of articulation is, so to speak, a parallel structure to the ski 1, which is connected to the ski 1 in the manner of a train-bridge structure.

This structure influences the bending and torsional behavior of the ski on the one hand, and on the other hand this structure provides “more information” about the current descent of the ski relative to the slope in the driver's feet, because not only “information” from below the ski binding but also can be introduced into the ski binding plate 2 from the front part of the ski and / or from the rear part of the ski.

This is a completely independent invention in relation to the three-point attachment or in relation to the 4-point attachment with floating bearing attachment or the invention with translation for shock absorbers and / or suspension (see below).

41 corresponds to FIG. 1 but without a rear support, which can alternatively be removed or added, and highlights the bridge construction which is formed by the front support of the ski binding plate 2.

42 corresponds to FIG. 1, but without a front support which can alternatively be removed or added and highlights the bridge construction which is formed by the rear support of the ski binding plate 2.

43 shows a joint bearing 15 in section, as it can be used for fastening devices 7, 8 according to the invention.

44 shows a section of a fork bearing 16 as can be used for fastening devices 7, 8 according to the invention.

45 shows an elastic block 17 in section, as it can be used for fastening devices 7, 8 according to the invention.

46 shows an open linear guide 18 in section, as it can be used for fastening devices 7, 8 according to the invention in a sliding manner or with roller bearings.

47 shows a closed linear guide 19 in section, as it can be used for fastening devices 7, 8 according to the invention in a sliding manner or with roller bearings.

48 shows a schematic representation of a height-variable articulation of the front support on the ski binding plate 2. The possibility of adjusting the effect of the support rod on the spring and / or damping element 22 (see below). By raising the support rod 5/6 to position 3, the translation is massively increased compared to the lowest position 1 (e.g. up to a factor of 3 to 5).

This is a very quick and effective adjustment option that can also be used with advantage in conventional rod systems and as a separate, independent invention. The height adjustment of the articulation point of the rod and also a structure with end stops according to Fig. 49 for a longitudinal movement could also be used with other skis / bindings / constructions that are independent of their integrated construction. In the prior art there are basically different approaches, but where one also works with rods.

The higher the articulation point, the stiffer the ski 1 becomes.

However, on the other hand, that is also the core of its own independent invention, namely a device for adjusting the bending stiffness of a ski, characterized by a ski binding plate 2, which in addition to its (conventional) attachment (articulation) to the ski 1 with at least a longitudinal rod is connected to the front and / or rear ski end, the height of the point of articulation of this longitudinal rod on the ski binding plate 2 being variable.

49 shows a schematic spring travel limiting stop on a piston rod 39, which can be driven by a support rod 5, 6 to support the ski binding plate 2. The - optionally variably adjustable - end stops 32 limit the max. Inward and outward travel. You can set how much path you want to allow as a maximum. The ski 1 only throws out to a limited extent in both directions, calms down faster, becomes calmer, has more contact with the slopes. The end stops 32, however, also allow the ski to be pre-tensioned into the negative (see FIG. 83) by positioning them accordingly along the piston rod. The ski 1 is now still on the slope even with waves (negative) on the slope. The number of strokes for the skier is less, the contact with the slopes and the feedback from the ski is greater.

The new idea is to fasten clamping parts 32 on the piston rod of a shock absorber 22 for continuous rods or support rods, which are present in both directions on the damper housing 22 or limit its path.

50-59 are empty in this application and reserved for any detailed drawings.

60 corresponds to FIG. 1, however, the ski binding plate 2 and its fastening devices underneath are only indicated, since they could also be replaced by other ski boot mounting devices if necessary.

[0118] FIGS. 61 to 65 show variants of continuous rods 33 or support rods 5, 6. It should be noted that these rods themselves can also act as suspension or damping, or that a resilient / damping element can be connected to the rod.

[0119] FIGS. 61 to 65 show various useful rod cross sections for support and for continuous rods.

[0120] FIG. 61 shows a conventional round rod as it can be constructed, for example, from hardened aluminum or from other light metals or from plastics, in particular fiber-reinforced plastics. Round support rods have a similar stiffness in all directions and are relatively cheap to manufacture. In contrast, FIG. 62 shows a rectangular support rod cross-section which has less height on the ski 1, but on the other hand also has only a lower bending moment in the vertical center plane. On the other hand, it can dampen bends of the ski precisely via this bending moment. A triangular support rod cross-section according to FIG. 63 has comparable properties. However, this cross-section also has advantages from an optical point of view, since it does not appear as an additional component on the ski 1. In addition, it is relatively lighter with the same materials as the rod according to FIG. 62. Fig. 63 again shows a round rod comparable to Fig. 61, but with the advantage that it is made hollow. This rod is lighter without losing any significant bending moment. FIG. 64 shows a multi-layer rod constructed on the principle of leaf springs and made up of several individual layers, which are arranged parallel to the ski surface. Such a structure has excellent rigidity in the lateral direction, but allows - comparable to the support rod according to FIG. However, all of the rods shown primarily transmit longitudinal forces that arise when the front or rear part of the ski flexes upwards or downwards and consequently loads the support rod in compression or tension. According to the invention, this load is introduced directly into the ski binding plate 2 and thus, conversely, acts directly on the flex movement of the ski via the weight and muscle strength of the skier and thus counteracts it.

FIG. 66 shows a structure according to FIG. 1 but with an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 in the front support rod 5 for supporting the ski binding plate 2.

For the purposes of the invention, a damper is an element which dampens shocks from uneven slopes and allows vibrations to subside quickly by converting energy into frictional heat, for example by compressing media or displacing them through bores in other chambers or by parts rubbing against each other.

For the purposes of the invention, a spring element is an element which counteracts the unevenness of the slope with an additional force to be overcome, for example by means of springs or rubber elements.

It can only be spring-acting; it can only have a damping effect or it can have a springy and dampening effect at the same time.

[0125] Further, it may or may not have an internal gear ratio to improve responsiveness.

[0126] E.g. with hydraulic displacement with damping, the effect becomes greater with more displaced volume.

This internal translation can take place by means of gears, hydraulics, levers, etc.

At most, the resilient / damping component 22, if it were mounted against the end of the ski and / or if it were flatter, can also only be designed as a pure weight that oscillates with the rod.

The following effects occur with such a structure: a) Weight increase in the area of the ski (shift of the center of gravity)

B) the weight would compensate for vibrations of the ski: if the ski 1 shoots up, the weight pushes down. As a result of inertia, this would result in a mass balance which, in the end, would keep the ski 1 more stable on the slope - impacts (including right and left) would also be dampened.

Such pure weight balances are already known, but not in connection with a support rod for a ski binding plate, where such effects have different effects, namely not only on the ski, but also directly on the ski binding and thus on the skier via the ski binding plate .

66 serves as an example to express that the spring and / or damping element 22 at any point in the rod, or externally of the rod, for example mounted on ski 1, or mounted on a binding plate, or integrated into the binding plate can be.

[0133] FIGS. 67-71 show different types as symbols for different designs of an integrated spring and / or damping element according to FIG

[0134] FIG. 72 shows a translation 23 with a one-sided - possibly adjustable - lever arm 24

72a shows a translation with a two-sided lever arm 24

73 shows a translation with a hydraulic piston system in which one piston. 25 / with a large diameter displaces hydraulic fluid, which in turn moves a smaller piston 26 / whose piston rod translates over a longer distance.

74 shows a translation with a transmission gear system

74a shows a translation with a transmission gear system

75 shows a structure according to FIG. 1 with an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 at the front end of the front support rod 5, 33 for supporting the ski binding plate 2 at the junction 44.

This is also the case for continuous bars. 33 can be used. The advantages of this assembly are that: More space is available than if the spring and / or damping element 22 is integrated with or in the ski binding plate. Better accessibility for adjustment work on the spring and / or damping element 22 by the skier on the slopes.

Advantages compared to front or rear mounting: the spring and / or damping element 22 can be easily mounted on the ski binding plate 2. This results in better handling for ski service. Suction cups that hold the ski 1 normally cover a large part of the width of the ski.

FIG. 76 shows a variant of the structure according to FIG. 75 with an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 at the rear end of the front support rod 5 for supporting the ski binding plate 2

77 shows a structure with a continuous rod 33 and an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 at the front end of the rod 33

[0144] FIG. 78 shows a structure with a continuous rod 33 and an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 at the rear end of the rod 33

79 shows a schematic representation of a fastening device with an elastomer rubber bearing 41a or a pivot bearing 41b. Although the pivot point is no longer very close to the ski 1 here, it is still less than 10 mm above the ski 1, so that the torsion function is still largely given.

FIG. 80 shows a structure according to FIG. 1 with integrated data sensors 30 and force measurement washers 31 for the fastening devices 7, 8.

81 shows a structure according to FIG. 1, each with an integrated spring and / or damping element 22 with translation 23 in the front and rear support rods 5, 6 for supporting the ski binding plate 2.

83 shows a schematic structure in which the ski 1 is prestressed into the negative by means of overlong support rods. The negative preload setting for a ski 1 is also an independent invention.

84 shows an example of a punctiform slide mounting as a fastening device for the rear part of the ski binding plate 2 in cross section through the ski / ski binding plate 2. The slide 35 is guided over two guide shafts 34 and is thus displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the ski. The connection to the ski 1 by means of pivot bearings 15 allows it to move freely with regard to torsion and bending.

85 shows an example of a two-sided point-like fastening device for the front part of the ski binding plate 2 in cross section through the ski / ski binding plate. The slide 36 is guided over two guide shafts 34 and is thus displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the ski. The connection to the ski 1 by means of two pivot bearings 15 only allows it to move in terms of bending.

FIG. 86 shows the two examples according to FIGS. 84 and 85 integrated on a ski binding plate 2 in a longitudinal section through a ski / ski binding plate. The front slide, item 36, is fixed on the ski via two pivot bearings 15 and at this point allows the ski to bend freely. The rear slide, item 35, is fixed to the ski by means of a pivot bearing, item 15, and allows torsion and bending for the ski at this point. The front slide, item 36, can be moved in its basic position via rows of holes in the binding plate 2, for example via five positions, and is screwed into the selected position by means of a screw. The rear slide, item 35, can be moved in its basic position via rows of holes in the ski 1, here for example over 7 positions, and is screwed into the selected position with the screw item 37. The rear slide 35 is movably supported on the linear shaft 34. If the ski bends, the slide can compensate for changes in length at the rear via the linear movement on the linear shaft.
