Abstract

The skis are made in two halves cut on an angle of 45o and connected together for skiing by a locking device in the form of two sheet metal section plates (1,2) which are connected together by hollow rivets (3) which form the centre of rotation. The sheet metal plates are each firmly screwed to a ski half and can slide over each other through concentric impressions (2) so that the skis are stable in both the folded and extended positions. With the skis unfolded into the position of use the resilient mounted locking mechanism (4) offers three positions for engaging the hooped bar (6) which is rotatably mounted in the side edges (5) of the locking part (2). The ski boot is now pressed onto the front metal pin to be securely fixed.

VORRICHTUNG ZUR LÄNGENREDUZIERUNG EINES SKIS Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Längenreduzierung von Langlauf-, Abfahrt- und anderen Skiern. DEVICE FOR REDUCING THE LENGTH OF A SKI The invention relates to a device for reducing the length of cross-country, downhill and other skis.

Durch die vorliegende Erfindung soll eine Vorrichtung geschaffen werden, die es ermöglicht, die relativ große Gesamtlänge von Skiern für den Zeitraum des Transportes und der Aufbewahrung zu reduzieren. Das Mitführen von Skiern in sämtlichen Transportmitteln wird somit erleichtert, weil z.B. Dachskiträger auf PKWs überflüssig werden, da die auf die Hälfte der Länge reduzierten Skier prblemlos innerhalb der Fahrzeuge Platz finden. Selbst ein Skitransport im Koffer oder in einer dafLr speziell hergestellten Tasche ist denkbar.The present invention is intended to provide a device which enables the relatively large total length of skis for the period of the Reduce transport and storage. Carrying skis in all Means of transport is thus made easier because, for example, roof ski racks on cars are superfluous because the skis reduced to half the length are problem-free within the Find space for vehicles. Even a ski transport in a suitcase or in a special one manufactured bag is conceivable.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe können handelsübliche oder nur leicht modifizierte Skier verwendet werden. Der Ski wird in seinem statisch stabilsten Bereich mit einem 450-Schnitt durchtrennt. Die beiden entstehenden Hälften werden durch die Vorrichtung so wieder verbunden, do der Ski einerseits seine belastbare ursprüngliche Form wieder einnimmt, andererseits um einen Drehpunkt geklappt werden kann. Die Hauptbestandteile der Vorrichtung sind zwei gestanzte und geprägte Bleche, deren Profile so aufeinander abgestimnt sind, daß sich beide Teile durch den gemeinsamen Drehpunkt und durch Übereinandergleiten stabilisieren. Jedes Blech ist jeweils nur mit einem Skiteil verschraubt, der gemeinsame Drehpunkt verbindet die Bleche in Form einer hohlen Niete. Das mit dem vorderen Skiteil verschraubte Blech ist zusätzlich nach unten in Richtung Lauffläche des Skis abgekantet und übernimmt mit dieser Abkantung Stabilisierungsaufgaben der Schnittstelle des Skis bei Verwindung und Belastung. Am vorderen Teil in Richtung Skispitze befindet sich an eben diesem Blechteil eine federnd gelagerte Arrettiervorrichtung, die einerseits die Verbindung der beiden ausgeklappten Skiteile und gleichzeitig die Befestigung des Skischuhes mit dem Ski sichert.Commercially available or only slightly modified ones can be used to solve this problem Skis are used. The ski is in its most statically stable area with a 450 cut severed. The two resulting halves are held by the device reconnected in this way, the ski regains its resilient original shape on the one hand occupies, on the other hand can be folded around a pivot point. The main ingredients of the device are two stamped and embossed sheets, whose profiles are so on top of each other are coordinated that both parts through the common pivot point and through Stabilize sliding over each other. Each sheet is only with one ski part screwed, the common fulcrum connects the sheets in the form of a hollow Rivet. The sheet metal screwed to the front part of the ski is also down beveled in the direction of the running surface of the ski and takes on stabilization tasks with this bevel the interface of the ski when twisted and loaded. At the front part in the direction Ski tip is a spring-mounted locking device on this sheet metal part, the one hand the connection of the two unfolded ski parts and at the same time secures the attachment of the ski boot to the ski.

Das mit dem hinteren Skiteil verschraubte Blech dient auf voller Länge dpm Skischuh als Standfläche. Wie bei handelsüblichen Skibindungen trägt auch dieses Blech Metallstifte, die den Skischuh in seiner Position fixieren.The sheet metal screwed to the rear part of the ski is used over its full length dpm ski boot as a stand area. As with standard ski bindings, this one also wears Sheet metal pins that fix the ski boot in place.

Beidseitige Abkantungen dieses Bleches nach oben in Richtung Skischuh dienen der seitlichen Führung des Schuhes und der Lagerung eines schwenkbaren Arrettierbügels, der im ausgeklappten Zustand in dl 'rrettiarvorrichtung des vorderen Skiteilbleches eingerastet wird.Edges of this sheet on both sides upwards in the direction of the ski boot serve for the lateral guidance of the shoe and the storage of a swiveling locking bar, which in the unfolded state in dl 'rrettiarvorrichtung the front ski part sheet is engaged.

Claims

S C H U T Z A N S P R Ü C H E 0 Device for length reduction of all types of skis, characterized in that they have two with section 1 (Fig. 1) severed ski halves are reconnected with each other, in the two with a 'pivot pointhildenden Hohiniete 3 (Fig.2) interconnected profile sheets 1 + 2 (Fig.2), each are firmly screwed to one half of the ski and by means of concentric profile embossing Can slide over each other 2 (Fig. 1) and thus the stability in each folding phase Reach, which is increased by a fold 3 (Fig.1) of the device part 1 (Fig.2) and that in the unfolded state the resiliently mounted locking device 4 (Fig.1) or 1 (Fig.2) three positions for engaging the in the side Foldings 5 (FIG. 1) of the device part 2 (FIG. 2) pivoted bracket 6 (Fig.1) offers, whereby the two ski parts are connected to each other without twisting and at the same time the ski boot is pressed onto the front metal pins 6 (Fig. 2) to fix the position of the ski boot.
