JOH. PET. BECKER jr. in REMSCHEID. Suit device for ice skates.

Patented in the German Empire on April 19, 1891.

The invention relates to a suit device for sole clips on ice skates.

Means the new device is, at the same time with tensioning of the heel claw too the tension of the soles with the greatest possible simplicity.

The new construction can easily be attached to all such skates which are fastened by means of sole and heel claws. She stands out known constructions due to their great simplicity, solidity and, above all, beneficial from the fact that a very firm clamping of the sole and the heel is more even Way is effected.

In the accompanying drawing the use of the new device is for example in so-called screw skates, Figs. 1 and 2, and in Halifax skates, Fig. 3 and 4, are shown.

In the screw skate, Fig. 1 and 2, the fastening of the heel plate a on the steel b is done in a known manner by rivets and webs.

The fixed base c for the movable sole plate d is connected to the running steel b at e in a similar way as the heel plate.

At e , a guide for the sole clips kk is bent in the plate c .

The bewegliqhe sole plate (the slide), d is provided at its front end with a pin g, which in. Two obliquely staggered slots hh, Fig. 2, 4, 5 and 6, which engages kk via mutually displaceable sole clamps and by a Slot 0 located in the fixed base c is guided.

At its rear end, the movable sole plate d is connected to the tension screw m by an eye ' I riveted to it, which is rotatable about its axis by the handle η. The handle η , which. is prevented from moving in the longitudinal direction of the skate by a groove η ^J in the rear web of the heel plate, causes a rotation of the screw spindle m during its rotation, but allows the same here a free movement in the longitudinal direction of the skate due to the at the rear end the screw spindle m located square m ¹ . ■

On the screw m which is provided with nut paragraph claw sits k \ in a recess of the heel plate q α in the longitudinal direction of Schlittschuhes is guided and clamping in use the shoulder against the rear, upwardly bent end of the heel plate a.

When putting on the skate, the device described works as follows:

After tightening the heel claw k ¹ by turning the handle η , if the latter is turned further, the screw m moves forward and thus also the same movement of the slide d.

The pin g pulls the sole claws kk tightly together as a result of the inclined position of the slots hh and thereby attaches the front part of the skate to the sole.

Figures 3 and 4 illustrate the new device in Halifax ice skates.

The movable sole plate d is cranked twice at d ¹ and ends in a lever-like extension d ² , the well-known locking lever in Halifax ice skates.

The connection of the heel claw k 'with the movable sole plate d is effected by a rivet e ¹ , which BEZW in the slot ρ a displacement. Adjustment of the claw against the soleplate d allows. The claw k is guided by means of a pin if in a recess q in the heel plate α. At the junction of the heel claw k ¹ with the sole plate d , a screw with a nut is arranged, by means of which a displacement of the heel claw against the sole plate d in the longitudinal direction is possible.

By means of this device, precise setting of the heel claw k ^l for the foot in question can therefore be carried out very conveniently.

The device described works as follows in use:

When the lever d ^{2 is} closed, the heel claw k 'hits

and when the lever d ² is fully closed, the sole plate d is moved forward in the same way as in the construction described first, and thereby the. Sole claws kk firmly tightened. The pin g serves as a pivot point for the sole plate d.

Claims (1)

Patent Claim:. In the case of screw and Halifax ice skates, in which the heel claw and the sole clamps are tightened at the same time, a device for tightening the sole clamps, characterized by the arrangement of the sole clamps kk , which overlap with their guide plates and which are positioned diagonally against one another and partially overlap Slots hh in connection with a movable sole plate d, the pin g of which engages in the aforementioned slots hh , in such a way that when the screw m is tightened or the lever d ^{2 is closed,} the sole plate d is moved forward and thereby attracts the sole clamps kk , while with the opposite Movement of the sole plate d a loosening of the sole clamps takes place. 1 sheet of drawings.
