Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a link interface device intended to be fixed to a shoe and to be pivotally mounted on a sports machine which provides restraint towards the rear during a climb.
  • This link interface device makes it possible to adopt a position climb in which the shoe retains an inclined position relative to the machine sport.
  • This invention is intended to equip in particular snowshoes and skis that can be fitted with seal skins or any other sports equipment intended to be used for a ascent.
  • the wedge which is often a metal wire, is inserted, in the raised position, between the machine and the swivel plate. It can be pivotally mounted either on the sports machine or on plate. However, all of these systems puncture the sports machine when the user presses his heel on the climbing wedge. It even breaks certain skis hiking.
  • the invention described in document FR 2 725 631 proposes a pivoting wedge along a vertical axis which positions a cantilevered part under the pivoting plate. However, this cantilever strongly requests in traction the attachment of the wedge on the sport.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to propose a link interface device which does not require the implementation of specific reinforcements on the sports machine, and which allows to optimize the materials used for the sports machine.
  • Another object of the invention is to reduce the overall cost of the materials used for the connection interface device and sports machine assembly.
  • the link interface device includes a plate on which is fixed the shoe, and which is articulated, in a manner known per se, on the sports machine.
  • the device also comprises a plate which is pivotally mounted relative to the plate on an axis transverse to the sports machine and which is arranged under the plate.
  • the climbing wedge is then placed sandwiched between the plate and the plate. So the pressure, exerted by the shoe on the climbing wedge, is taken up by the material constituting the plate.
  • Figure 1 schematically shows an overview of three front quarter of a snowshoe equipped with the link interface device.
  • Figure 2 schematically shows a three quarter front view of the device link interface only.
  • Figure 3 schematically shows a side view of the link interface device in the up position.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates an overview of the sports machine / link interface device, which is here a snowshoe, comprising a frame 0 on which is articulated a plate 2.
  • the user's shoe is fixed to plate 2 by Fx fastening means, integral with the plate 2, which can be, for example, constituted by a notched strap 55 and of a closing loop 56.
  • the fastening means Fx enclose the shoe preferably at the front of the shoe, as well as at the instep.
  • the fixing means Fx can be other in accordance with the prior art known in snowshoes and ski touring bindings.
  • the choice of means of fixing Fx is absolutely not limiting for the present description.
  • the axis on which is hinged mounted plate 2 is transverse to the sports machine, and preferably located near of the spatula 57.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a perspective view of three front quarter of the interface device of liaison only.
  • the shoe fastening means described above are not represented.
  • the plate 2 is mounted articulated on an axis 10 transverse to the sports machine.
  • the plate 2 includes a wide part 31, located at the front at the axis 10, which serves as support to the front part of the shoe, and more specifically to the part located between the front end and the metatarsophalangeal joint of the foot.
  • Plate 2 includes also at its front end at least one front edge 32 which extends upwards over a height substantially equal to, or greater than, the height of the sole of the shoe at its front end.
  • the front overhangs 32 are two and positioned substantially symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis 33 of the device link interface. These front overhangs 32 serve to retain the boot forwards, especially when the link interface device is used in crampons, on snow hard or on ice. This clamping is made possible by the teeth 34 which are fixed on the wide part 31 of the plate 2, and fixed substantially under at least one front overhang 32.
  • the plate 2 also includes an adjustment band 35 which extends behind the wide part 31, along the longitudinal axis 33.
  • an adjustment band 35 which extends behind the wide part 31, along the longitudinal axis 33.
  • the heel piece 37 comprising fastening means, not shown, of the rear of the shoe.
  • the position of the heel piece 37 can be adjusted according to means known from the prior art, such as as a rack 36, in order to adapt to the length of the shoe.
  • This plate 1 which is arranged under the plate 2.
  • This plate 1 comprises at least one lateral overhang 22 which extends upwards over a height substantially identical to the thickness of the plate 2.
  • the lateral overhang 22 is preferably positioned at level of the adjustment band 35 and outside of this band 35, so that it partially surrounds the plate 2 at the level of said adjustment strip.
  • the lateral overhangs 22, 23, are located on either side of the plate 2 so as to extend laterally the bearing surface of the shoe provided by the plate 2.
  • the plate 2 is parallel to the plate 1 and comes to be embedded in the latter.
  • the plate 2 will be complementary to the plate 1 to come to cooperate with the plate 1.
  • the link interface device is represented when the climbing wedge 12 is in the raised position.
  • the plate 2 which is articulated around an axis 10 transverse to the interface device.
  • the plate 1 is pivotally mounted relative to the plate 2 along an axis 3 transverse to the sports machine, and therefore transverse to the device.
  • the axis of rotation 10 of the plate 2 is coincident with the axis 3 of rotation of the plate 2 relative to the platinum.
  • This arrangement greatly simplifies the implementation of the invention since there is only one single axis which allows two different rotations.
  • Climb 12 is disposed interposed between the plate 1 and the plate 2 in order to maintain, in the raised position, a ⁇ inclination of the plate 2 relative to the plate 1 around the axis 3.
  • the climbing wedge could be made, for example, of stainless steel wire with a diameter of 4 millimeters, twisted into a U-shape, and both ends of which are curved to come form an axis.
  • Shim 12 moves from the raised position to the lowered position by pivoting around an axis.
  • the part of the climbing wedge 12, which is in contact with the plate 2 will be advantageously positioned in the heel area of the shoe to avoid to flex the plate 2.
  • the plate 2 can therefore be made of low-material expensive.
  • the plate 1 comprises a housing 20 intended to pivotally hold, along an axis transverse, the climbing wedge 12.
  • the plate 2 comprises a translational guide 38 of the climbing wedge 12.
  • the plate 1 In order to receive the climbing wedge 12 in the lowered position, the plate 1 includes a notch 39. This notch 39 can be placed either in front of or behind the housing 20 depending on whether the climbing wedge 12 is lowered forward or towards the back.
  • the plate 2 will include a housing intended to maintain pivotally the climbing wedge 12, and the plate 1 will include a guide in translation of the climbing wedge 12.
  • the system in translational guide 38 will advantageously include a retaining bar 40 which allows to keep the angle ⁇ at a constant value.
  • the retaining bar 40 forms, with the support on which the translational guidance system 38 is fixed, a recess 41 located between the retaining bar 40 and said support. The climbing wedge is then slid into this obviously 41. The climbing wedge thus constitutes a rigid connection between the plate 2 and the deck 1.
  • Compliance with this constructive arrangement allows, when lifting the foot, which is fixed on the plate 2, also lift the plate 1 and this regardless of the position of the wedge.
  • the foot has an inclination, necessary for climbing comfort, relative to the sports machine, on which the plate 1 rests.
  • the foot When the foot is in the pivoting phase, for an angle of pivoting greater than ⁇ , it carries with it the retaining teeth 11a, 11b, which are no longer then in contact with the snow and thus facilitates the sliding movement of the sports machine on snow.
  • retaining tooth 11a on the plate 1, and transversely with respect to the plate 1.
  • These teeth retainer 11a may be in number, positioned substantially at the axis 3 and be oriented substantially perpendicular to the plate 1 downwards. These teeth participate in grip when climbing, when the foot is in the impulse phase of the walking stride, and that the retaining teeth 11b are no longer in contact with the snow.
  • At least one retaining tooth 11b substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis 33 of the device. This retaining tooth 11b is used for attachment when the foot is resting on the sports machine.
  • the retaining teeth 11b can be arranged substantially symmetrical around the longitudinal axis 33 and at the heel area of the shoe, and more generally of the rear half length of the shoe.
  • the plate 2 can be made of material injected thermoplastic, in particular polypropylene or polyamide, that is to say a inexpensive material.
  • the plate 1 can be made of thermoplastic material injected, in particular poly-acetal, and has an openwork structure thus facilitating the evacuation of snow through the plate 1.
  • This material has very good mechanical characteristics and thus allows resume the localized pressure exerted by the climbing wedge 12 on the housing 20 reserved for this effect in stage 1.
  • the perforated structure of the plate 1 reduces the manufacturing costs.
  • the plate 1 which has a certain rigidity distributes the pressure exerted on the snowshoeing or cross-country skiing.
