Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a snowboard provided with a braking system.
  • Snowboards provided with a braking system are known.
  • a drawback of the known systems is that they can only be operated with difficulty and in limited circumstances. Braking systems are thus known which only come into operation when the shoe is removed from the binding of the snowboard.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a snowboard provided with a braking system which can be operated continuously and to any desired extent.
  • the present invention provides for this purpose a snowboard as according to the preamble which is characterized in that the braking system comprises a brake member which produces a different braking force in different positions and which co-acts with drive means, wherein the drive means can be controlled manually so that the different positions of the brake member are achieved.
  • the snowboard according to the present invention is provided with a brake member which can be placed in different positions, any desired degree of braking effect can be obtained, which provides a great advantage. If a snowboarder wishes to reduce his speed somewhat, he can thus actuate the drive means lightly so that a slight braking effect is achieved. When approaching a ski-lift, the snowboarder can bring about a more forceful actuation so that he comes to a standstill. In addition to the above stated advantages, the danger of accidents is reduced considerably with the variable braking system.
  • the drive means particularly comprise at least a first and a second engaging point, wherein a first engaging point is coupled to a manually controllable member and wherein a second engaging point can co-act with the brake member.
  • the snowboarder can herein hold the manually controllable member, for instance in the form of a cord, in the hand or fastened round the leg, so that operation of the braking system can be readily effected by pulling on the member.
  • the first engaging point and the second engaging point are advantageously placed relative to a shaft present centrally relative thereto such that a lever action occurs when the drive means are operated.
  • the brake member When actuated, the brake member preferably protrudes through the running surface of the snowboard.
  • the brake member can for instance comprise one or more pin-like members.
  • the brake member comprises a plate-like member.
  • the plate-like member is advantageously placed transversely of the length direction of the snowboard.
  • the braking effect is further optimized by such a placing.
  • the brake member protrudes centrally through the running surface of the snowboard.
  • the snowboard hereby remains on a relatively fixed course, also during braking, and no undesired change of direction occurs.
  • FIG 1 shows a side view of the braking system according to the present invention.
  • the braking system comprises a brake member (3) which co-acts with drive means (4).
  • the embodiment of brake member (3) is further elucidated in figure 3. Shown here is that the brake member is constructed from different components.
  • Brake member (3) comprises a plate-like member (3A) which protrudes through the running surface of the snowboard into the snow during a braking operation and brings about a braking effect.
  • This plate-like member (3A) is coupled to actuating member (3B) with interposing of a spring coupling (3C).
  • Brake member (3) can be driven using drive means (4).
  • These drive means comprise a first engaging point (6) which is coupled to a cord (7) for manual operation. This cord can be held in the hand by the snowboarder or be fastened round his leg.
  • the drive means comprise a second engaging point (8) which can co-act with the actuating member (3B) of brake member (3).
  • the engaging points (6, 8) can pivot over a shaft 9.
  • the engaging point (6) moves upward because a pulling movement is performed on cord 7, the engaging point (8) moves downward so that the brake member is pressed downward and protrudes through the running surface of the snowboard.
  • This latter situation is shown in figure 2.
  • a braking effect is brought about in this situation.
  • the plate-like member (3C) is rounded on the underside. In a preferred embodiment however, the plate-like member (3C) takes a flat form on the underside.
  • the brake member (3) comprises a spring coupling (3C)
  • the brake member (3) will be returned to the original position shown in figure 1 when the cord is released, wherein no braking effect occurs.
  • the user of the snowboard can place the brake member in different positions and thereby produce different braking effects.
