Definitions

  • skis There are also a number of holders for skis and, if necessary, additional for ski poles known (e.g. DE-A-3616718, US-A-4190182 or EP-A-0406179), for example to be able to carry a pair of skis better by hand.
  • a ski is between two elastically bendable jaws connected via a crossbar to form a type of U-profile trapped.
  • the possibility of securely holding rod-shaped or plate-shaped ones Objects such as skis, snowboards or the like. with one stand to accommodate several Objects are not given in such a way.
  • For automatic adjustment of different thicknesses and widths of the objects in a stand such a construction is not suitable for individual holders for carrying skis.
  • this is achieved by a large number of approximately parallel to one another aligned strip, rod or finger-like, elastically bendable and / or resilient slidably or pivotally held holding elements by insertion the objects are elastically bent away and / or pushed back resiliently.
  • a structurally simple design of the stand is given when the holding elements as curved, strip-like or rod-like parts made of spring steel or are formed from an elastically resilient plastic.
  • the manufacturing is through it relatively easy to do and also the effect is optimal.
  • Through the arcuate shape ensures that the object to be used does not come into contact with sharp edges or cutting edges. But that's also it Pulling the objects out of the stand without hindrance and without damage the possibly sensitive surface of the objects possible.
  • the spring travel and thus also the spring effect of the individual holding elements are further increased and further the side stop area for the objects used can be enlarged be when the holding elements with their arcuate sections partially in Engage slots on the inner boundary of the stand facing away from the fastening side.
  • a stand should be included, i.e. in particular e.g. on skis or snowboards, An even better securing of the position can be achieved if several, each formed from two interdigitated rows of holding elements Holding units arranged consecutively in the direction of insertion for the objects are.
  • the stand 1 itself or its frame 6 can be made of metal or plastic become.
  • the holding elements 4.5 can be in the form of an arc, strip or rod-like parts made of spring steel or of an elastic, resilient plastic be trained.
  • FIG. 6 and 7 are several, each consisting of two comb-like interlocking series 7, 8 of holding elements 4, 5 holding units 12 arranged successively in the insertion direction E for the objects 2.
  • a such an arrangement is given in Fig. 6, the two holding units with little Follow distance X one after the other.
  • With such an arrangement of two holding units 12 one above the other it makes sense in the embodiment according to FIG subsequently arranged holding units 12 offset by the width B of a holding element 4, 5 to arrange each other.
  • the freely projecting ends 11 of the Holding elements 4, 5 of one holding unit 12 in the manner of a comb into the slots 13, 14 between engage two holding elements 4, 5 of the following holding unit 12.
  • the free cantilevered ends 11 of the holding elements 4, 5 thus receive additional lateral support.
  • the holding elements 4, 5 are straight Aligned in one plane, so to speak, only their end regions 11 being acute-angled are bent down.
  • the holding elements give way 4.5 resiliently downwards (shown in broken lines in Fig. 14). Form here too those that remain in a straight line on the side next to the downwardly bent holding elements 4, 5 Holding elements the side stops for the objects.
  • FIG. 16 is constructed in the same way as FIG. 15, wherein here, however, two levels of holding elements 4.5 are mounted one above the other in a stand are.
  • the objects to be used are spaced two above each other arranged areas held so that a particularly good stability against tipping becomes.
  • the holding elements 4, 5 are made of a parallelogram adjoining or interconnected sections is formed.
  • Spring steel or a resilient plastic When training out Individual sections must also be arranged with springs at appropriate points. With such a construction, the objects to be used can a relatively large flat area can be kept.
  • a stand designed according to the invention can be of simple and robust design Most versions are also used outdoors and especially in winter will, wherever possible, use gliding winter sports equipment without any problems to be able to. For trouble-free operation of a stand according to the invention can also contribute if the lateral edge areas of the individual holding elements are rounded or chamfered. If the holding elements 4.5 after Pulling out an inserted object intermesh again an even improved configuration is thereby created.
  • a stand according to the invention can have a single, possibly very long receiving opening have with a plurality of holding elements. But it is also conceivable in to provide a stand several receiving opening, but also a length to Includes multiple objects. An embodiment is also possible in which the receiving opening has only a width of the object to be inserted, wherein the holding elements then only exert the spring action on the object. Then it falls however, the optimal possibility of lateral support for each next holding elements away.
  • the footprint for the object used in the stand should be such that the object is not easily sideways can dodge and that water can drain.
  • the floor could, for example, with Studs, pins or brushes.
  • the floor can be flat and thereby inclined horizontally or at an acute angle to the horizontal his.
  • the bottom can also be curved in cross section or in one there are acute or obtuse angles adjacent sections and so form a kind of gutter.
