Definitions

  • the present invention relates to cross-country skis, and more particularly to those used for the practice of classic, so-called alternative, steps as opposed to skater's steps.
  • a cross-country ski generally comprises a central portion arched at rest with upwardly convexity, delimited by two lines of contact with the ground, respectively front and rear, and separating this central portion respectively from the tip and the heel of the ski .
  • the support area of the skier's foot is located in the middle position relative to this central part, at least approximately.
  • this support of the foot manifests itself between the sole of the ski and the ground, essentially at two points or very restricted zones, well located.
  • the skier's foot is supported at the metatarsophalangeal joint, which defines the position of the fulcrum on the ski or impulse fulcrum. It is at this point that the maximum pressure is exerted to put the ski flat by elasticity against the camber of the central part.
  • This distribution along the sole of the ski is of great importance since it conditions the effectiveness of the impulse transmitted by the metatarsophalangeal support in the impulse phase and the quality of the slip when the heel is pressed.
  • FIG. 1 For a conventional ski intended essentially for alternative pitch, it can be seen, as illustrated in FIG. 1, that this distribution of pressure along the ski is not ideal.
  • This diagram represents the contact pressure on the ordinate, as a function of the position on the ski on the abscissa, between the tip S and the heel of the ski Ts, respectively in the impulse phase, in phantom, and in the sliding phase , in solid lines.
  • the impulse and heel support points are respectively referenced by Pi and T.
  • the present invention aims to eliminate this drawback or, at the very least, to reduce its importance significantly, by concentrating the pulse pressure on the area of the wax chamber 8.
  • the invention it is proposed to overcome, or at least to considerably reduce the importance of the disadvantages mentioned above, to spare in the thickness of the ski, in the area of the central part corresponding at least approximately at the foot of the skier's foot, an empty part or transverse slit crossing the ski to define two upper and lower beams respectively.
  • the upper beam by bending, comes into contact with the lower beam which in turn bends to generate the contact pressure with the ground which allows the impulse.
  • a shoe 4 is very schematically figured, highlighting evidence of the points of application of the efforts of the heel support T and of the impulse or metatarsophalangeal support Pi.
  • a vacuum is formed, for example in the form of a slot 5 of small thickness. This slot 5 defines a sharing zone by separating them, between two upper 6 and lower 7 beams respectively.
  • This longitudinal transversely traversing slot is located behind the so-called point of balance P1 of the ski, which corresponds to the location of the front end of the shoe 4. It also extends rearward to a point located near the point T where the bearing force of the heel of the shoe 4 is exerted in the sliding phase. preferably, the slot 5 is located in the thickness of the ski at the neutral fiber thereof.
  • the slot 5 performs two distinct functions.
  • the sliding phase (FIG. 4)
  • the heel T when the heel T is pressed, it digs upwards the wax chamber 8, mentioned above in the introduction, by a phenomenon of shearing induced between the upper beam 6 and the lower beam 7.
  • the impulse phase ( Figure 5) it allows the flattening optimally, that is to say with the maximum intensity, of the wax chamber 8 on the ground by pressing during the pulse Pi of the upper beam 6 on the lower beam 7.
  • the pulse point Pi located in the area of the slot 5 will be located in front of the center of the latter and preferably two-thirds of the latter. Indeed, it is noted that if the point of impulse Pi is centered longitudinally with respect to the slot 5, one does not obtain an optimal distribution of the contact pressures between the sole of the ski and the ground during the effort of impulse. This is illustrated by the diagram in FIG. 6 in a representation similar to that of FIG. 1, where we note on either side of the zone of the pulse point Pi, where we have a peak d 'intensity, two pressure ranges of intensity still very important. The pressures exerted correspond to a load equivalent to the normal weight of a skier, that is to say approximately 60 to 85 kgs.
  • the diagram in FIG. 7 shows the distribution of the contact pressures when the pulse point Pi is located, as said above, at two thirds of the slot 5 in the direction of the tip S of the ski.
  • the length of the slot 5 can obviously be variable and is a function of the length of the ski and the size of the shoe 4 of the wearer. It is clear that the more the length of the slot 5 will increase, the more the wax chamber 8 will tend to widen, and therefore the more the contact pressure will increase in this area during the impulse support Pi.
  • the length of the slot 5 can vary, for example between 150 and 300 mm depending on the bending stiffness of the upper beam 6. In a preferred area of 210 to 250 mm, only the pulse pressure Pi varies significantly and increases, the pressure in the area of the wax chamber 8 remains approximately constant.
  • the thickness of the slot 5 if it must be sufficient, must nevertheless remain relatively small, failing which the ski would be weakened too much. A thickness of the order of 2 to 4 mm turns out to give excellent results.
  • the slot 5 remains laterally open to the outside, untimely intrusions of snow, mud, gravel or other undesirable foreign bodies may occur. It is therefore possible to provide that the slot 5 is filled with an elastic material very easily deformable in compression, such as for example a plastic foam.
  • the slot 5 can also be laterally closed by a bellows or any other equivalent means.
  • the slot 5 which has just been described can furthermore be made in any type of ski, for example conventional as illustrated in cross section in Figure 8, of trapezoidal section curvilinear or not, as in Figure 9, or even of completely asymmetrical section (not shown).
  • the slot 5, in the various variants which have just been mentioned, can also be arranged obliquely, rectilinear or not, in the thickness of the ski, as shown in FIG. 10 in partial longitudinal section, falling from the zone from the heel T towards the point of impulse Pi.
  • This arrangement induces a gradation in the resistance to bending of the upper beam 6, this bending being stronger in the area of the point of impulse Pi, favoring the flattening of the wax chamber 8, but however, it tends to weaken the upper beam 6 in this area.
  • the slot 5 can be provided with variable thickness, this increasing from the heel T towards the point of impulse Pi. This arrangement has approximately the same advantages as that which has just been set forth immediately above.
  • the slot 5 by construction of a lower beam 7 gathering all the elements of mechanical resistance, namely, the core, the sole, the reinforcements, and. .. and an upper beam 6 of molded plastic material covering the slot over a length at least equal to the latter.
  • This beam may advantageously be provided with a longitudinal rib 61 in which a complementary groove 41 produced in the sole of the shoe 4 cooperates.
  • the assembly of the upper beam 6 to the lower beam 7 can be carried out by any means such as by gluing, vibration welding, and ...
  • Figures 16a and 16b show an advantageous solution to solve this problem: under the sole of the ski, at the wax chamber 8, a removable plate 63 supporting the anti-recoil system 64 can be put in place and removed quickly.
  • the lower beam 7 comprises at the level of the wax chamber 8 a recess 61 which may possibly have a width equivalent to the ski.
  • This recess 61 serves as a housing for a housing 62 fixed in the recess 61 by any means such as screwing, gluing, welding. This case can also be obtained directly during the manufacture of the ski by molding or machining.
  • a removable plate 63 advantageously made of plastic, comes to be embedded in the case 62 and holds in place by friction or snap-fastening.
  • the anti-recoil system 64 which it is desired to use under the ski. It suffices that the skier has several removable plates 63, with on each of them one or more anti-recoil systems to be able to choose at the last moment the system best suited to the circumstances. It is also possible that a removable plate 63 does not have an anti-recoil system on all or part of its surface.
  • FIG. 17a, 17b, 17c Another embodiment of the housing 62 and the removable plate 63 is shown in Figures 17a, 17b, 17c.
  • the case 62 shown here over the entire width of the ski, has 2 grooves 65, the removable plate 63 sliding in these grooves 65.
  • the groove 65 is removed in one end 66 in order to be able to flexively deform the removable plate 63, as shown in dotted lines 67 so that the removable plate 63 can pass over the rim 68 of the housing 62, as well during installation that during the extraction of the removable plate 63.
  • a notch 69, provided in the removable plate 63 (or in the rim 68) facilitates the maneuver to extract this plate.
