Definitions

  • the invention relates to a safety ski binding with a heel shoe according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a safety ski binding is known from CH-PS 417 433.
  • the manual opening lever is pressed down against the biasing force of the release spring, whereby the locking projection is brought out of the swivel range of the culmination point of the slide track and the sole holder can be swung up force-free.
  • This arbitrary pivoting of the sole holder into the open position can be brought about either by lifting the heel region of the ski boot or, if the ski boot is not in engagement with the ski binding, by hand.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a heel shoe for a safety ski binding, in which the sole holder can be pivoted securely into its open position despite simple and inexpensive construction.
  • the hand opening lever hurries during the opening movement to the sole holder that is still in the closed position until the actuation stop and the counter stop engage, whereupon the sole holder swings in the opening direction too, in that it is faster than the hand opening lever in that the culmination point changes Locking projection approaches more and more until the locking projection engages again with the slide track shortly before reaching the culmination point. Now the further pivoting movement of the hand opening lever would be blocked by the stops acting between the hand opening lever and the sole holder if these or at least one of them were not designed to be resilient.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the distance between the first transverse axis and the culmination point is 1.5 to 4 times, preferably 2 to 3 times and in particular 2.5 times the distance between the point of engagement of the actuation stop and the first transverse axis. With such a dimensioning of the distances, particularly favorable force and speed relationships exist between the sole holder and the hand opening lever.
  • FIG. 1 shows a heel shoe which comprises a bearing housing 11, a sole holder 13, a hand opening lever 15 and a release spring 16.
  • the bearing housing 11 is fastened in a longitudinally displaceable manner on a base plate 25 which is fixedly arranged on the surface of a ski, not shown.
  • a thrust spring 26 engages one end of the bearing housing 11 in the axial direction, while its other end abuts an axial stop 27 fastened to the base plate 25.
  • This pushing spring 26 supports the bearing housing to the rear and, when the ski boot is inserted into the ski binding, causes an axial pushing force on the ski boot sole in the direction of a toe piece, not shown.
  • the resilient support of the heel shoe in the axial direction makes it possible to compensate for a change in the distance between the heel and the toe shoe, which can occur when the ski bends, for example when driving through floor recesses.
  • a horizontal first transverse axis 12 is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the ski, about which the sole holder 13 is pivotably mounted. This first transverse axis 12 is provided near the rear end of the sole holder 13.
  • the sole holder 13 has at its front end facing the front jaw a sole hold-down 28, a tread 29 below and a front end wall 30 in between, which cooperate with the heel part of the ski shoe sole, not shown.
  • the sole of the ski lies on a tread plate 10 which is fastened on the base plate 25.
  • a sliding track 20 with an essentially vertical upper section 31, a horizontal sliding section 32, a vertical sliding section 33 and an essentially horizontal lower section 34 is provided.
  • a first latching recess 18 and between the vertical sliding section 33 and the lower section 34 a second latching recess 19, while at the transition of the horizontal sliding section 32 into the vertical sliding section 33 a knee-like projection directed towards the first transverse axis 12 is formed, which has a culmination point 21.
  • the sole holder 13 has a cam-shaped actuation stop 22 which projects above the sole holder 13 and is formed in one piece with it.
  • the hand opening lever 15 is connected to the bearing housing 11 via a second transverse axis 14, which runs parallel to the first transverse axis 12, and is rotatably supported thereon.
  • This second transverse axis 14 is located in the area of the bearing housing 11 near the base plate and lies in the axial direction approximately in the middle between the first transverse axis 12 and the first latching recess 18.
  • the hand opening lever 15 is made in one piece and consists of a lower bearing area 35 which is the second transverse axis 14 receives, a middle power transmission area 36 and an upper, slightly angled depressing area 37.
  • the hand opening lever 15 has a locking projection 17 directed towards the front jaw, which engages in the closed position of the sole holder 13 in the first locking recess 18 of the sliding track 20 to exert a hold-down force holding the ski boot on the ski on the sole holder 13.
  • the force holding the sole holder 13 in its closed and open position is generated by the release spring 16, which is arranged in an axial central opening 38 of the bearing housing 11.
  • the trigger spring 16 rests with its rear end against an adjusting disk 39 which is supported on the rear of the bearing housing 11 and which can be displaced in the axial direction by means of an adjusting screw 40 in order to be able to adjust the required pretension.
  • the release spring 16 bears against a rear hemispherical cam 41 of the hand opening lever 15, which is arranged essentially at the same height as the latching projection 17.
  • the release spring 16 generates a clockwise torque about the second transverse axis 14, which is transmitted to the sole holder 13 via the locking projection 17 and acts on the sole holder 13 in the direction of its closed position.
  • a resilient counter stop 23 is fastened at the bottom in such a way that when the hand opening lever 15 is pivoted in the direction of the arrow 42 and in the closed position sole holder 13 on the actuating stop 22 at the engagement point 24 for engagement is coming.
  • the manual opening lever 15 In the closed position, the manual opening lever 15 is in its foremost position under the action of the release spring 16, in which the latching projection 17 is pressed into the first latching recess 18 of the slide track 20 and thus holds the sole holder 13 in the closed position. If the hand opening lever 15 is now pivoted in the direction of arrow 42 with compression of the release spring 16 up to the actuation stop 22, the latching projection 17 initially moves away from the first latching recess 8 and also lifts off from the upper section and the horizontal sliding section 32 of the sliding track 20. In this state, the sole holder 13 is decoupled from the biasing force of the release spring 16, but remains in the closed position due to its weight.
  • the horizontal sliding section 32 moves upward much faster than the latching projection 17, so that the horizontal sliding section 32 of the sole holder 13 approaches the latching projection 17 again.
  • the culmination point 21 located at the end of the horizontal sliding section 32 is arranged at a distance B from the first transverse axis 12 which is approximately 2.5 times the distance A between the point of engagement 24 of the actuating stop 22 with the Counter stop 23 and the first transverse axis 12 is.
  • the culmination point 21 travels a substantially greater distance on its swivel circle about the first transverse axis 12, namely 2.5 times, than the engagement point 24 with the same change in angle.
  • the other points of the horizon are from the first transverse axis 12 even further away, this applies even more to all other points on the horizontal sliding section 32.
  • the horizontal sliding section 32 engages with the locking projection 17 shortly before the culmination point 21.
  • a further pivoting of the hand opening lever 15 is now only possible by compressing the resilient counter stop 23, as can be seen from FIG. 2.
  • the trigger spring 16 is compressed until the latching projection 17 reaches the culmination point 21 and thus its dead position, in which the sole holder 13 would not pivot into its closed or open position when the hand opening lever 15 was released.
  • the sole holder 13 When the hand opening lever 15 swings slightly, the sole holder 13 jumps into an over-center position, in which the latching projection 17 engages with the vertical sliding section 33. In this position, a further actuation of the hand opening lever 15 is no longer necessary, since the actuation stop 22 and thus the entire sole holder 13 is pivoted further about the first transverse axis 12 due to the relaxation of the resilient counter-stop 23.
  • the release spring 16 presses the locking projection 17 against the vertical sliding section 33, which likewise exerts a force in the vertical direction and thus a torque about the first transverse axis 12 in the counterclockwise direction, which pivots the sole holder 13 into its open position.
  • the open position can be seen from FIG. 3.
  • the locking projection 17 engages in the second recess 19 of the slide 20, so that the sole holder 13 is locked in the open position.
  • the springy counterpart beat 23 is relaxed again in this position.
  • the automatic opening of the heel cheek in the event of a fall is essentially the same as for the manual release.
  • the force for pivoting the hand opening lever 15 until the over-center position is reached is not introduced via the depressing area 37 of the hand opening lever 15, but via the horizontal sliding section 32 of the sliding track 20, which presses the latching projection 17 of the hand opening lever 15 upwards.
  • the locking projection 17 does not lift off the horizontal sliding section 32 in the first phase of the pivoting movement, but slides thereon to the culmination point 21.
  • the actuating stop 22 can also be designed to be resilient.
  • the resilient stops can be made of rubber or another material that has the required elastic properties.
  • a compression spring can also be provided instead of a rubber element.
  • the locking projection 17 of the hand opening lever 15 when the counter stop 23 or the actuating stop 22 is not compressed lies in the pivoting range of the horizontal sliding section 32 of the sliding track 20, as a result of which the further pivoting movement of the hand opening lever 15 and the sole holder 13 into the open position is initially blocked while the locking projection 17 can be brought out of the pivoting range of the horizontal sliding section 32 by compressing the resilient stop above the culmination point, so that the locking projection 17 can slide into the dead center position of the slide track 20.
  • the pressure force of the resilient stop 23 and then the thrust force of the release spring 16 after the hand release lever 15 is released causes the further rotary movement of the sole holder 13 into its open position.
  • FIG. 4 shows an embodiment variant of the heel shoe in which the same parts as in FIGS. 1 to 3 are provided with the same reference numbers.
  • the locking projection 17 is not formed in one piece with the hand opening lever 15, but is provided on a locking element 43 which is guided axially displaceably within the bearing housing 11.
  • the locking element 43 has a cross pin 44 which engages in a vertical slot guide 45 provided in the hand opening lever 15, so that there is a fixed and predetermined positional relationship between the angular position of the hand opening lever 15 and the position of the locking element 43.
  • a plurality of cross pins 44 that is to say arranged on both sides of the latching element 43, can also be provided, which engage in correspondingly assigned slot guides 45 of the hand opening lever.
  • the trigger spring is not supported on the manual opening lever 15 as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, but on the latching element 43. It rests with one end on an end face 46 of a recess 47 of the latching element 43, while its other end is supported in the same way as in FIGS. 1 to 3 on the bearing housing 11 or on the adjusting disk 39 (not shown in FIG. 4).
  • the latching element 43 is continuously pushed in the direction of arrow 48 by means of the release spring, so that the latching projection 17, which is formed in one piece with the latching element 43, presses the sole holder 13 into the closed position when the latching projection 17 is in the region of the horizontal sliding section 32.
  • the hand opening lever 15 is also biased via the cross pin 44 and the slot guide 45 into its closed position, in which it is its steepest, i.e. occupies the most upward position.
  • the manual transfer of the sole holder 13 from its closed to its open position via the manual opening lever 15 takes place in the same manner as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • the latching projection 17 can therefore only move from its horizontal sliding section 32 via the culmination point 21 to it Be brought vertical sliding section 33 that either the actuating stop 22 or the counter-stop 23 is compressed, whereby a further angular movement of the hand opening lever 15 and thus a further horizontal displacement of the locking projection 17 against the direction of arrow 48 is made possible.
  • the locking projection 17 since the locking projection 17 is not provided on the manual opening lever 15, but rather on the locking element 43, the locking projection 17, in contrast to the first exemplary embodiment, does not perform a circular movement about the second transverse axis 14, but a pure translational movement against the direction of the arrow 48.
  • the locking projection 17 bears against the vertical sliding section 33 of the sliding track 20 and thereby holds the sole holder 13 in the open position.
