Definitions
- the invention relates to a snowboard fixing device. It relates more particularly to an improvement in the means for adjusting its angular position.
- the bindings for a shoe on snowboard are known, in particular from the following patents or patent applications: FR 2,743,306, FR 2,726,480, FR 2,627,097, EP 0 761 261, EP 0 285 558, US 5,584 492.
- the fastening device comprises a plate intended to receive and hold a shoe, said plate having a circular toothed opening.
- the plate is held on the surf by a pivot comprising two slides having a toothing corresponding to that of the plate and intended to snap into the toothing of the latter to immobilize it in a determined position.
- the sliders are controlled by means of a lever placed in the center of the binding, that is to say under the foot of the user. This arrangement implies that to change the angular position of the binding the user must leave the binding.
- the plate is placed directly on the surface of the surf which is perhaps a drawback, gravel or the like being able to slip between the plate and the surf and thus hamper its movement.
- the patent application FR 2 627 797 describes a fixing similar to that of the application FR 2 743 306, but a little less good with regard to the protection of the toothing of the plate.
- the utility certificate FR 2 726 480 discloses a fixing device comprising in particular a locking device making it possible to change position without having to leave the fixing.
- the locking member is constituted by a finger cooperating with a track having openings. This arrangement, due to its design, limits the possibilities of adjustment and, moreover, since the track does not extend over the complete periphery of the base, it will not be possible for a left-handed and a right-handed person to be able to use the fixing without the latter be reinstalled.
- the fixing can consist of a central or pivot disc comprising a horizontal or vertical toothing of a plate movable in rotation around said pivot, levers being engaged with said toothing so as to immobilize the plate in a determined position. In this embodiment, nothing has been provided to protect the teeth.
- a simplified snowboard binding is described. Indeed, the latter is constituted by a crown having an internal toothing fixed directly to the surface of the surfboard inside which is disposed rotatably a central core forming part of the plate.
- the central core being held on the surf by a second crown fixed on the first and having a substantially greater width.
- a slide inside said core is kept permanently in engagement with the teeth of the first crown so as to fix the plate in a determined position.
- This realization is not safe or it is very difficult to modify the angular position of the plate. Indeed, the slide is held in its engaged position by a spring, if the latter is not strong enough the attachment will come off or if the latter is strong enough it will not be possible to push it back to change the angle d orientation of the plate.
- the purpose of the binding device according to the invention is to provide a binding device for a boot on a snowboard not having the faults noted above, that is to say a binding having increased rigidity with better protection conditions for its mechanism in the best cost conditions and mechanically more reliable.
- the rotary force produced by the driving force during use does not push the lever holding spring but on the contrary acts on the teeth until the material is deformed.
- the device for attaching a boot to a snowboard according to the invention defined in claim 1 achieves the aims specified above.
- FIG. 1 represents a schematic exploded perspective view of an embodiment of the device according to the invention
- FIG. 2 represents a plan view of the device represented in FIG. 1
- Figures 3 and 4 show two sections of the device of Figure 1, respectively in the locked position and in the unlocked position.
- a device comprises a base 2 intended to be fixed to the surface 20 (see FIG. 3) of the surf also called snowboard (for more details on the surfboards or snow as to their characteristics and the manner of using them, advantageously consult the document FR 2 743 306).
- This base is circular in shape and has a circular groove 6 in the shape of an angular U, that is to say a U with a flat base and two rising branches 17 and 25.
- the external branch 25 has on its external wall a toothing 7, in the embodiment shown the toothing 7 is a conical toothing, the apex of the cone is on the axis 24 with an apex angle between 40 ° and 90 °.
- the toothing is toroidal, that is to say is inscribed inside a toroid sector.
- the toothing in its entire periphery is covered by a flange 22 which prevents snow or impurities from settling on the teeth and from altering the grip of the locking lever 10.
- the base 2 also comprises a central opening 9 intended for centering of the cap or pivot 3, and the holes 8 intended to receive screws making it possible to fix it on the surface of the surf 20 (FIGS. 3 and 4). These screws pass through the holes 19 of the cap or pivot 3 so as to fix the latter with the base 2.
- the device also comprises a plate 1, which has a part 21 in the form of a crown, visible in FIGS. 3 and 4, intended to be placed in the groove 6 of the base 2 and a protective edge 22.
- the base 2 has in its center an opening 16, the wall of which constitutes the internal face of the part 21 in the form of a crown, which is intended to come into abutment against the internal branch 17 of the U-shaped groove. While the external face of the part 21 in the form of a crown will bear against the external branch 25 of the U-shaped groove.
- the plate 1 comprises a part 23 which is a part of the elements necessary for maintaining the shoe. In the present case, these elements belong to a so-called automatic fitting or "step-in” binding.
- the part 23 includes holes 14 intended to allow its attachment to the plate, for example by means of screws not shown. It also comprises vertical parts 15 on which the other elements of the “step-in” fixing will be fixed. It is understood that the plate could be designed to receive other known elements allowing the shoe to be held on the plate, such as for example a shell.
- the plate 1 which is oblong has on one of its long sides a housing 18 intended to receive a lever 4.
- This lever 4 has two arms, a first arm 10 having at its end a toothing corresponding to the toothing 7 arranged on the outer part of branch 25 of said U of base 2, and a second arm 11 forming a control member.
- the lever 4 is articulated around an axis 12 materialized by a part 13 disposed on an element 5 intended to be fixed in the housing 18.
- Figures 3 and 4 show a section along AA in Figure 1.
- the device is in the locked position, while in Figure 4 the device is in the unlocked position by lowering the operating member 11.
- the teeth 10 release in rotation the toothed crown 7 secured to the base 2, which allows the user to turn the plate 1 as desired.
- the lever 10 fixes the chosen position.
- the operating member 11 can be omitted.
- the adjustment will be carried out by means of an object such as an appropriate rod which is introduced into a hole arranged in the lever 4. This in order to avoid untimely adjustments.
- the fixing according to the invention can be made of light metal, for example aluminum alloy or synthetic material of suitable strength.
