Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for waxing skis.
  • the present invention aims to fill this gap by providing a simple and user-friendly device requiring no particular skill.
  • This device essentially comprises, at one end of a substantially parallelepiped body made of thermally and electrically insulating material, a heating block made of heat conductive material, the underside of which forms a pad, at least at the rear end of the body and having at least a first wax reception and storage chamber, simple or mixed, to melt and spread on the sole of each ski, a second chamber, located at a level lower than that of the first and communicating with each first chamber by at least one passage and communicating with the underside of the pad by at least two channels or two series of distribution channels arranged symmetrically on either side of the median longitudinal vertical plane of the body, means making it possible to open and to close these channels at will, heating means with which are associated means for adjusting the desired temperature é both housed in a compartment in the heating block, near the first and second aforementioned chambers.
  • the means making it possible to open and close the wax distribution channels are constituted by a plug and rotating tap in which the wax distribution channels are formed radially and the control means for this tap consist of a lever articulated on a trunnion carried by the body of the device, parallel to the axis of the valve turning, and the end opposite to its operating end is coupled to a crank wedged on the axis of the turning.
  • This arrangement has the effect of amplifying the rotation of the turn relative to that of the control lever.
  • the front end of the body that is to say that opposite the heating block, carries a horizontal axis at the ends of which are mounted two guide rollers having an internal step capable of engaging on the corresponding edge of the sole of the ski to be waxed.
  • each side wheel is axially movable on its axis between a stop provided at the considered end of the axis and a shoulder of this axis against which it is normally maintained applied by a spring means, the two extreme positions of each caster corresponding to the two extreme widths of skis capable of being waxed with this device.
  • the heating means of the heating block are constituted by at least one electrical resistance embedded in a refractory cement filling the compartment in which it is housed and the means for adjusting the temperature which are associated are constituted by a thermostat of a conventional type.
  • each electrical resistance housed in the compartment of the heating block is of a type supplied with low voltage allowing its supply from a storage battery of a motor vehicle and its power cord of this device is equipped with a male pin allowing its connection to the female pin of a cigarette lighter of motor vehicle.
  • the underside forming the pad of the heating block is extended, in the direction of the front end of the device, by a plate made of a material which is good conductor of heat and covering the underside of the device body.
  • its body has, in the lower extension of each of its vertical angular edges, that is to say at each of the four angles of its lower face, a foot enabling it to be placed on a horizontal surface, without risk of staining this surface.
  • valve turn is easily removable in the heating block and, on the other hand, there are provided several turns each of which has rows of distribution channels whose length corresponds to the width of the skis to wax.
  • the body bears on its side face located on the same side as the control lever, an axially movable cylindrical stop with several stages, limiting the stroke of the valve control lever to the desired value.
  • a body 2 of substantially rectangular rectangular shape made of a thermally and electrically insulating material and, in particular, of a molded or injected plastic material.
  • This body 2 is hollow and is closed only on its upper 2a, anterior 2b, lateral 2c and 2d and posterior 2e faces.
  • the body 2 carries a heating block 3 made of a material which is good conductor of heat and, in particular, of a moldable or injectable metal such as aluminum.
  • This heating block 3 has, opening into its upper face, a chamber 5 for receiving and storing wax, whether it is a single product or a mixture and which is intended to be melted and spread over the sole 4a of the ski 4. Forward and at a level lower than that of the chamber 5 and communicating with it by a passage 6, there is provided a second chamber 7 intended to receive the wax in the molten state and to keep it in this state until 'when distributed on the sole 4a of the ski 4.
  • the inclined bottom of the chamber 5 facilitates the flow of the molten wax in the chamber 7.
  • the latter is arranged transversely to the longitudinal vertical plane 8 of the device and, by Consequently, the heating block 3 and it has, advantageously, a bottom of semi-cylindrical shape and a horizontal axis forming a hopper.
  • the chamber 7 communicates with the underside of the heating block 3 forming the shoe 3a by a vertical slot 9 situated in the vertical diametral plane of the bottom of the chamber 7 and, consequently, coinciding with its lower generatrix.
  • a cylindrical plug 11 with an axis 11a parallel to that of the bottom of the chamber 7 and serving as a seat for a turning 12 of complementary shape having a plurality of diametrical channels 12a.
  • the plug 11 and the turn 12 are obviously intended to form a valve 11, 12 for controlling the distribution of the wax on the sole 4a of the ski 4.
  • the channels 12a are distributed in equal numbers on either side of the longitudinal median vertical plane 8 of the device.
  • the axes of the channels 12a can be brought either in the same vertical plane as the median plane of the slot 9, position in which the tap 11,12 is in the open position, either in any other angular position in which the valve 11, 12 is partially or completely closed.
  • the heating block 3 has at least one compartment 13, two in this example, in each of which is housed an electrical resistance 14 embedded in a refractory cement 14a and connected to a source of electric current supply by a cord 15 through a thermostat 16 making it possible to adjust, using a control button 17 accessible above from the upper wall 2a of the body 2, the temperature of the heating block 3 at the desired constant value.
  • the value of the constant temperature to which the block 3 must be heated is determined by the quality of the wax used.
  • the body 2 advantageously has, above its upper wall 2a, an operating handle 19 which, preferably, is connected to the body 2 at its wall anterior 2b.
  • valve control member 11, 12 is made up, as illustrated in the drawing, by a bent lever 21 articulated on a pin 20 carried by the body 2 of the apparatus and of which an extension 21b, opposite its operating end 21a, is articulated on a crank 21c wedged on an extension 12b of the turn 12 of the valve 11 , 12.
  • the free end 21a of the lever 21 is accessible by the thumb of the hand of the operator who holds the handle 19.
  • a spring 21d constantly tends to return the lever 21 to the valve closed position 11, 12.
  • the body 2 of the device carries, on its side wall 2c which carries the pivot pin 20 of the lever 21, a stop 28 intended to limit the stroke of the lever 21 to its angular position corresponding to the desired degree of opening of the channels 12a of the turn 12.
  • the stop 28 is of cylindrical shape with two stages 28a and 28b and it is mounted axially movable so as to determine two distinct values of the angular travel of the lever 21, the small diameter stage 28b of the stop 28 corresponding to the maximum opening of the valve 11, 12, necessary for the distribution of the anti-recoil wax, while its stage 28a of large diameter corresponds to a partial opening of this tap, necessary for dispensing glide wax, such as paraffin.
  • the front end 2b of its body 2 has two coaxial lateral hubs 22 supporting the coaxial pins 23 of two guide rollers 24 each of which has an internal step 24a intended to be engaged on the corresponding edge of the underside of the ski 4.
  • each pin 23 is in fact constituted by the smooth part of a screw located near its head 23a and the threaded part 23b of which is intended to be screwed into the threaded bore of a part.
  • cylindrical central unit 25 with a diameter greater than that of the pins 23 on which the rollers 24 are mounted, free to rotate.
  • the rollers 24 are mounted axially mobile on their respective pins 23, a spring 26 normally holding each of them in abutment the shoulder formed by the central part 25. In this position, the rollers 24 are therefore at their minimum spacing, but it is easily understood that their engagement on the tip 4b of a ski 4 makes it possible to separate them from one the other until their spacing corresponds to the width of the ski 4 to be waxed.
  • the minimum ski width for which this device can be used obviously corresponds to this minimum spacing of the rollers 24; on the other hand, the maximum ski width for which this device can be used corresponds to the position occupied by the rollers 24 when their respective springs 26 are completely crushed.
  • this device is advantageously fitted with an indicator light 27 enabling the operation of this device to be viewed.
  • the resistors 14 are advantageously of the low voltage type and the power cord 15 of this device is itself advantageously equipped with a male pin 15a allowing its connection to the female pin of a cigarette lighter motor vehicle.
  • its body 2 has, in the lower extension of each of its vertical angular edges, that is to say at each of the four angles of its lower face, a foot 28 allowing it to be placed on a horizontal surface, without risking staining this area.
