Abstract

Un élément amortisseur (1) disposé entre la surface du ski (2) et l'attache du ski (3) absorbe les coups et vibrations élastiques résultant du passage sur des irrégularités du terrain. L'élément amortisseur facilite notamment la pratique du ski, surtout les courbes, tout en augmentant en général la sécurité à des vitesses élevées. Etant donné son effet antivibratoire et amortisseur de chocs, l'élément amortisseur prévient également les accidents de ski. L'élément amortisseur comprend une couche en polyuréthane et sur celle-ci au moins une couche métallique en un alliage d'aluminium.A damping element (1) arranged between the surface of the ski (2) and the ski attachment (3) absorbs shocks and elastic vibrations resulting from passing over irregularities in the terrain. The damping element notably facilitates skiing, especially curves, while generally increasing safety at high speeds. Due to its anti-vibration and shock-absorbing effect, the damping element also prevents skiing accidents. The damping element comprises a layer of polyurethane and thereon at least one metal layer of an aluminum alloy.

Description

DAEMPFUNGSELEMENT FUER EINEN SKI DAMPING ELEMENT FOR A SKI
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Dämpfungs¬ element für einen Ski. Bis anhin sind die Vorderbacken, der Fersen echanismus, die Auflageflächen einer Ski¬ bindung direkt und starr mit der Skikonstruktion in fester Verbindung montiert worden. In dieser unnach¬ giebigen Verbindung führten die einzelnen Elemente ei¬ ner Skibindung ihre Funktion aus, die neben der Fi¬ xierung des Skischuhs mit dem Ski vorliegend dem Zwecke dient den Skifahrer bei einem Sturz vor Unfall- folgen zu schützen. Eine solche starre Verbindung der Teile der Skibindung mit dem Ski hat den wesentlichen Nachteil, dass beim Befahren von Unebenheiten die her¬ vorgerufenen Schläge und Vibrationen direkt auf den Skifahrer übertragen werden. Die Erscheinungen erschwe- ren nicht nur die Skiführung, sondern sie wirken auch ermüdend und unangenehm auf den Skifahrer und führen im weiteren zu Unfällen. Skelett, Bänder, Gelenke und Muskulatur werden zu stark beansprucht.The present invention relates to a damping element for a ski. Up to now, the front jaws, the heel mechanism, the contact surfaces of a ski binding have been mounted directly and rigidly with the ski construction in a fixed connection. In this rigid connection, the individual elements of a ski binding perform their function, which in addition to fixing the ski boot to the ski serves the purpose of protecting the skier from the consequences of an accident in the event of a fall. Such a rigid connection of the parts of the ski binding to the ski has the major disadvantage that the bumps and vibrations caused are transmitted directly to the skier when driving over bumps. The phenomena not only make skiing difficult, they also have a tiring and unpleasant effect on the skier and also lead to accidents. The skeleton, ligaments, joints and muscles are overused.
Es ist deshalb eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Er- findung an einem Ski ein Dämpfungselement vorzusehen, welches die beim Befahren von Unebenheiten erzeugten Schläge und Vibrationen aufnimmt und die obgenannten Nachteile vermeidet.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a ski with a damping element which absorbs the impacts and vibrations generated when driving on bumps and avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages.
Dies wird erfindungge äss durch die kennzeich- nenden Merkmale des unabhängigen Patentanspruches 1 erzielt.This is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of independent patent claim 1 achieved.
