Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of gliding boards intended for the practice of snowboarding and relates more particularly to a device for retaining a boot relative to the gliding board.
  • the retaining means must have the capacity to adapt to variations in external forces without the holding precision being impaired.
  • the retaining means must allow numerous and easy putting on and taking off.
  • the prior art has proposed at least two major families of shoes and means of retaining the shoes relative to a board.
  • a first family is that of flexible shoes, or "boots”, held on the board by systems of wedges and straps, an example of which is given in document DE 91 13 766.
  • a second family is that of more rigid shoes, held on the board by one or more fasteners which generally cooperate with the shell base of the shoe, an example of which is given in document EP 0 525 580 (A1).
  • Fixings for rigid hulls are subject to variations in behavior over time, and present difficulties of use either during footwear or during heaving.
  • the document WO 90/11109 relates to a snowboard binding with automatic locking.
  • the boot intended to be connected to the board is provided with lateral edges projecting outwards and which cooperate with engagement elements provided with open housings for receiving the edges of the shoe.
  • one of the engagement elements comprises a hooked spout pivotally mounted on a base fixed to the board.
  • the hooked beak moves in rotation from a locking position to an open position allowing the vertical release of the lateral edge.
  • Elastic return means also make it possible to keep the spout in the locked position.
  • the axis of rotation of the hooked spout is in the same vertical plane as the lateral edge when the latter is engaged in the locked position.
  • the restraint is made by the specific shapes of the hooked beak and the lateral edge.
  • the invention provides a device for retaining a boot on a gliding board intended for the practice of snowboarding, the device comprising at least one anchoring means extending along an axis of rotation of the shoe relative to the board, and at least one retaining member allowing the reception of the anchoring means in a housing of the retaining member, the housing allowing the engagement of the means of anchoring in the housing according to a main guide plane G, a locking member cooperating with the retaining member to maintain the anchoring means in the housing.
  • the retaining device according to the invention is characterized in that the locking member is capable of pivoting along an axis of rotation of the locking member offset from the guide plane G.
  • This structure allows precise support of a shoe relative to the board, which is all the stronger as the anchoring means tends to come out of the housing, thanks to the relative positions of the axis of rotation of the locking member. and the guide plane G.
  • Another advantage is that the device is subject to much less wear due to the ease of opening resulting from the offset. In addition, the lock is retained regardless of the play caused by wear due to a self-wedging effect.
  • proportional support avoids any unwanted heaving: a user therefore does not risk being kept on the board by only one foot, a case recognized as causing the most serious trauma.
  • the retaining device according to the invention is characterized in that the locking member is a latch which comprises a convex surface for retaining the anchoring means in the housing.
  • the device is further characterized in that the convex surface of the lock is a cylindrical portion whose center is the axis of rotation of the lock.
  • This architecture eliminates mechanical interference between the lock and the anchoring means during a relative movement of these elements. It advantageously follows that the shoes and the shoes are very easy to execute.
  • the user can therefore easily take off and then off each time he uses a ski lift or a cable car; it can also be released more easily after a fall.
  • the device is characterized in that the convex surface of the bolt is a cylindrical portion whose center is an axis distinct from the axis of rotation of the bolt.
  • the center of the cylindrical portion and the axis of rotation of the bolt are arranged relative to each other so that the bolt exerts a force on the anchoring means when it is in position lock.
  • This architecture improves the behavior of the device over time because it makes it possible to compensate for the clearances which result from manufacturing tolerances or from wear; moreover, putting on and taking off remains easy to perform.
  • the device is characterized in that the anchoring means is a pin designed to cooperate with the slot-shaped housing. It follows that the contact between the convex surface of the lock and the anchoring means is made by a very small surface, which reduces friction during operation.
  • the advantage is that the mechanical wear of the device is very reduced: the precision remains constant over time.
  • the invention also relates to the combination of a snowboard boot and the retaining device.
  • the anchoring member is located in the vicinity of only one of the sides of the boot.
  • a device 1 for retaining a boot on a gliding board is represented from two different angles by the perspectives of FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • Figure 1 shows a set of elements intended to be secured to the gliding board not shown.
  • a base 2 is held by means of a disc 3 on a bearing face of the gliding board, by contact with its lower face 4.
  • the disc 3 is a truncated cone designed to fit in a conical orifice of the base 2, so as to secure the latter to the gliding board.
  • the disc 3 is pressed towards the gliding board by traction means represented here in the form of four screws 5.
  • the disc 3 and the orifice of the base 2 have a common axis 6 around which it is possible to adjust the angular position of the base 2, and therefore of the retaining device 1, relative to the board.
  • Two lateral fingers 7, 8 rise above the upper face 9 of the base and leave between them a space for inserting, in particular, a retaining member and a locking member whose functions will be explained by after.
  • the retaining member represented in the form of a support 10, is secured to the gliding board via the base 2.
  • the locking member represented in the form of a latch 11, is mounted movable in rotation along a shaft 12 of axis 13, the shaft 12 passing through orifices of the lateral fingers 7, 8 and of the latch 11.
  • the anchoring means shown in the form of a pin 15 of axis 16, is secured to the plate 14 for example by means of a weld.
  • the plate 14 is in turn attached to the not shown sole of the shoe by any means such as gluing, screwing, riveting or the like. This amounts to saying that the anchoring means 15 is secured to the shoe.
  • the shoe shown diagrammatically by the silhouette 17, is retained on one face 18 of the gliding board as will be explained.
  • the pin 15 which, as said, is an anchoring means integral with the shoe, is provided to cooperate with a housing 19 in the form of a slot in the support 10.
  • This slot 19 comprises, in our example, an inlet in the shape of a "V” followed by a short, substantially straight portion, and ends in a circular bottom whose curvature is similar to that of the pin 15.
  • the slot 19 makes it possible to define a main guide plane G, substantially parallel to the short straight portion, which corresponds to a preferred direction of insertion of the pin 15 into the slot 19.
  • the latch 11 comprises a convex surface 20 provided for retaining the pin 15 in the housing 19.
  • the surface 20 is in contact with the pin 15 because an elastic means, represented in the form of a spring 21, urges the latch 11 to a closed position.
  • This closed position is delimited by means of a stop means, represented by a stop 22, which allows immobilization in rotation of the lock 11.
  • the convex surface 20 of the latch 11 is a cylindrical portion whose center is the axis of rotation 13 of the latch 11, the axis of rotation 13 being offset with respect to the guide plane G.
  • the architecture of the retainer 1 has many advantages.
  • a manipulation means integral with the lock 11, represented by a lever 24, allows the user to act manually, in the direction of the arrow F, on the lock 11 against the action of the spring 21.
  • This manual action which allows disengagement of the journal is very easy: it requires almost no effort. Indeed, thanks to the cylindrical shape of the convex surface 20 combined with the position of the axis of rotation 13 of the lock 11, a movement towards a direction of unlocking of the lock 11 does not induce any mechanical action tending to cause the pin 15. It follows that the unlocking maneuver does not require overcoming an effort such as that resulting from the deformation of a part passing from a locking position to a free position. When the latch 11 has turned, the heaving is done by simple lifting of the foot.
  • passage 25 which connects the bottom of the slot 19 with the outside of the retaining device 1. This passage 25 allows the evacuation, by pushing the pin 15, of snow, ice or particles, which could have accumulated in the slot 19.
  • the passage 25 is located between the lateral fingers 7, 8, the latch 11 and the base 2.
  • the example described uses a lateral device for retaining the boot relative to the board; this embodiment gives the shoe a degree of freedom in rotation, along the axis 16 of the pin 15, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the shoe is able to pivot by an angle value ⁇ against the action of at least one elastic return means, represented in the form of blocks 26, 27 of flexible synthetic material such as rubber.
  • the blocks 26, 27 tend to keep the sole of the shoe in contact with the board.
  • the retaining device 1 can be manufactured with all known materials such as metals, reinforced or unarmoured plastics, and by using conventional techniques such as machining, molding, bonding.
  • the elastic return means can be replaced by a rigid stop means in order to prevent the boot from rotating about the axis 16 of the pin.
  • the blocks 26, 27 can advantageously be made of material of high hardness, for example.
  • the blocks can also be made of soft material but in this case have a small thickness (of the order of 1 to 5 mm, for example) relative to the base 2, so as to ensure a simple backlash without offering any possibility of rotation of the shoe around the axis 16.
  • the convex surface 20 of the lock 11 is in this case a portion cylindrical, the center of which is an axis 28, positioned so that the cylindrical portion 20 constrains the pin 15 in the slot 19 in a locked position.
  • the axis 28, center of the cylindrical portion 20 has rotated in an arc of circle whose radius r corresponds to the distance separating the axes 13 and 28.
  • lever 24 is in this case provided with a tongue 29 which cooperates with the additional handling means, shown in the form of a pedal 30 rotatably mounted relative to the board along an axis 31. It suffices that a bare foot comes to bear on the accessible end of the pedal 30 to request the lever 24 , which in turn causes the lock 11 to move. The user therefore does not have to bend down to take off the second foot. In addition, it retains the possibility of manually acting on lever 24.
  • the invention provides a solution which simplifies the operation of putting the boot on the surfboard by means of a device for retaining bulk and reduced weight.
  • the device makes it possible to manage and control a lateral laxity of the shoe when the latter proves necessary until the possibility of immobilization of the shoe relative to the board.
