Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de rehaussement des éléments d'une fixation de ski comprenant un élément de fixation avant et un élément de fixation arrière, dispositif constitué de deux plates-formes articulées entre elles dans la zone médiane du dispositif, entre les éléments de fixation, autour d'un axe transversal à l'axe longitudinal du dispositif, l'élément de fixation avant étant monté sur l'une des plates-formes et l'élément de fixation arrière étant monté sur l'autre plate-forme, les plates-formes présentant des moyens de liaison au ski.The invention relates to a device for raising the elements of a ski binding comprising an element of front fixing and a rear fixing element, device made up of two articulated platforms between them in the middle area of the device, between the fastening elements, around an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the device, the fixing element forward being mounted on one of the platforms and the rear fastener being mounted on the other platform, the platforms having means of skiing connection.

Il est connu d'utiliser des plates-formes de rehaussement pour surélever la chaussure par rapport au ski, en particulier pour la compétition lorsque le ski utilisé présente une ligne de cote relativement creusée et qu'il est nécessaire d'éviter que la chaussure ne vienne en contact avec la neige lors de la prise de virage. Ces plates-formes sont en outre généralement conçues de manière à assurer un certain débridage du ski au niveau de la fixation de ski.It is known to use platforms for raising to elevate the shoe from the skiing, especially for competition when skiing used has a relatively deep dimension line and that it is necessary to prevent the shoe from come into contact with the snow when turn. These platforms are also generally designed so as to ensure unclamping of the ski at the ski binding.

Une fixation constituée de deux plates-formes articulées entre elles est connue de la demande de brevet EP 0 835 675. Elle a pour but de modifier le moins possible les caractéristiques de flexion du ski au niveau de la fixation. Chacune des plates-formes est fixée au ski en deux points situés entre l'articulation et la zone des plates-formes portant les éléments de la fixation de ski. De part et d'autre des vis de fixation les plates-formes s'étendent au-dessus des skis avec un espace, cet espace pouvant être rempli d'un corps élastique.A binding made up of two platforms articulated between them is known from the request of EP 0 835 675. Its purpose is to modify the less possible the bending characteristics of the ski at the level of the fixing. Each of the platforms is fixed to the ski at two points located between the joint and the area of the platforms carrying the elements of the ski binding. On both sides of the fixing screws the platforms extend over the skis with a space, this space can be filled with a body elastic.

Du brevet EP 0 719 166 on connaít par ailleurs un dispositif de rehaussement constitué de deux plates-formes se prolongeant chacune jusqu'à l'extrémité de l'autre plate-forme et se croisant dans un plan vertical, l'une des extrémités des plates-formes étant fixe, tandis que l'autre extrémité est retenue sur le ski de manière à pouvoir coulisser longitudinalement par rapport au ski. Cette construction a pour but de maintenir à tout instant la position relative du centre de gravité de la chaussure relativement au ski et ainsi de conserver un contrôle optimum du ski. La construction a également pour but d'absorber les sollicitations verticales appliquées aux skis.From patent EP 0 719 166 we also know a raising device consisting of two platforms each extending to the end of the other platform and intersecting in a plane vertical, one end of the platforms being fixed, while the other end is retained on the ski so that it can slide longitudinally compared to skiing. This construction aims to maintain the relative position of the center at all times severity of the boot relative to the ski and so maintain optimum control of the ski. The construction also aims to absorb vertical stresses applied to skis.

On a également proposé d'autres types de plates-formes de rehaussement qui, au contraire, jouent le rôle de raidisseur de manière à augmenter encore la rigidité et la raideur du ski, notamment dans la zone du patin. Du brevet US 5,704,628, on connaít en particulier une plate-forme de rehaussement comportant un bras qui permet de transmettre une partie des efforts exercés dans un plan vertical longitudinal par le skieur à une zone du ski située en avant de la butée, c'est-à-dire de l'élément de fixation avant. Le bras est relié à une pièce de reprise solidaire du ski, de sorte qu'un effort longitudinal est exercé sur le ski entre la butée et la pièce de reprise pour provoquer un raidissement. Other types of platforms have also been proposed which, on the contrary, play the role of stiffener so as to further increase rigidity and the stiffness of the ski, especially in the skate area. Of US patent 5,704,628, we know in particular a raising platform comprising an arm which allows to transmit part of the exerted efforts in a longitudinal vertical plane by the skier at a ski area located in front of the stop, i.e. of the front fixing element. The arm is connected to a integral piece with the ski, so that a longitudinal force is exerted on the ski between the stop and the recovery part to cause a stiffening.

Dans un autre type de plate-forme, telle que décrite dans le document FR 2 777 792, une plaque de rehaussement repose sur des lattes flexibles qui se prolongent à l'avant et à l'arrière de la zone de montage des éléments de fixation de ski et prennent appui sur la face supérieure du ski par l'intermédiaire de plots amortisseurs. En raison de la flexibilité des lames longitudinales, un tel dispositif ne permet pas de transmettre des appuis suffisamment efficaces, notamment lorsque le skieur exerce des efforts au niveau d'un des éléments de la fixation de ski. En outre, la présence de plots en élastomère a tendance à amortir le comportement de l'ensemble du ski, de sorte que de tels dispositifs sont plutôt destinés à des skis relativement confortables, à l'opposé des skis très dynamiques, notamment utilisés en compétition.In another type of platform, as described in document FR 2 777 792, a plate of raising rests on flexible slats which extend to the front and rear of the mounting the ski binding elements and take support on the upper face of the ski via damping pads. Due to the flexibility of longitudinal blades, such a device does not allow to transmit sufficiently effective support, especially when the skier exerts efforts on level of one of the elements of the ski binding. In in addition, the presence of pads made of elastomer tends to dampen the behavior of the entire ski, so that such devices are rather intended for skis relatively comfortable, unlike very skis dynamics, especially used in competition.

Dans la demande de brevet FR 00 06335 au nom du demandeur, non publiée, il est proposé un dispositif de rehaussement permettant d'optimiser la transmission des appuis exercés par le skieur en direction du ski. A cet effet, l'un des éléments de la fixation de ski est monté sur l'élément articulé dont une extrémité vient en contact supérieur du ski par l'intermédiaire d'un moyen d'accrochage de telle sorte que les efforts exercés dans un plan vertical sur l'élément de fixation de ski sont en partie transmis au ski par cette extrémité accrochée.In patent application FR 00 06335 in the name of applicant, not published, a device is proposed enhancement to optimize the transmission of support exerted by the skier towards the ski. In this one of the elements of the ski binding is mounted on the articulated element, one end of which comes in upper contact with the ski via a hooking means so that the efforts exerted in a vertical plane on the fastening element are partly transmitted to skiing by this hooked end.

Dans un mode d'exécution, une partie des efforts exercés par le skieur au niveau de la butée avant de la fixation sont appliqués sur le ski en avant de la butée, c'est-à-dire sur une zone plus longue du patin, ce qui permet une inscription efficace dans le virage et une conduite mieux maítrisée du ski, en particulier en slalom géant.In one embodiment, part of the effort exercised by the skier at the front stop of the binding are applied to the ski in front of the stop, that is to say on a longer area of the skate, which allows efficient registration in the turn and better control of skiing, in particular in giant slalom.

Selon un autre mode d'exécution, une partie des efforts exercés par le skieur au niveau de la butée de la fixation sont également appliqués au ski en avant de la butée, mais ont tendance à relever très légèrement le ski, c'est-à-dire à raccourcir la zone d'application de la pression exercée par le ski sur la neige. Ceci a pour effet de faciliter l'enchaínement de virages.According to another embodiment, part of the efforts exercised by the skier at the stop of the binding are also applied to the ski in front of the but tend to slightly raise the ski, i.e. to shorten the application area of the pressure exerted by the ski on the snow. This has the effect of facilitating the sequence of turns.

L'invention a également pour but d'optimiser la transmission des appuis exercés par le skieur, de telle sorte que les efforts soient non seulement appliqués aux zones situées de part et d'autre des éléments de fixation de ski, mais également dans la zone médiane du dispositif de rehaussement.The invention also aims to optimize the transmission of the support exerted by the skier, such so that efforts are not only applied to the areas on either side of the elements of ski binding, but also in the middle area of the raising device.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que l'une des plates-formes présente un prolongement s'étendant au-delà de l'axe d'articulation, prolongement par lequel la plate-forme peut exercer un effort sur le ski lorsqu'un effort est exercé par le skieur dans un plan vertical sur l'élément de fixation porté par la plate-forme présentant ledit prolongement.The device according to the invention is characterized in that that one of the platforms has an extension extending beyond the axis of articulation, extension by which the platform can exert a effort on the ski when an effort is exerted by the skier in a vertical plane on the binding element carried by the platform having said extension.

La plate-forme présentant le prolongement sera généralement la plate-forme portant l'élément de fixation arrière, c'est-à-dire la talonnière. Ainsi, lorsque le skieur exerce une flexion vers l'avant pour attaquer un virage, une partie des efforts exercés par le skieur sur la talonnière sera appliquée au ski par l'extrémité du prolongement, en avant du point milieu du patin. Ceci permettra au skieur d'augmenter l'appui dans la partie avant du patin et du ski, c'est-à-dire d'avoir une meilleure prise de carre à l'entrée d'un virage. Dans la phase de milieu et fin de virage, l'effort arrière sera mieux réparti sur le ski et une partie de l'effort sera reportée sous le pied, favorisant ainsi l'accrochage et la conduite du ski en virage.The platform presenting the extension will be generally the platform carrying the element of rear attachment, i.e. the heel piece. So, when the skier flexes forward to attacking a turn, part of the efforts exerted by the skier on the heel will be applied to the ski by the end of the extension, in front of the midpoint skating. This will allow the skier to increase the support in the front part of the skate and ski, that is to say to have a better edge take at the entrance of a turn. In the middle and end phase, the rear effort will be better distributed over the ski and a part of the effort will be transferred underfoot, thus favoring the attachment and the driving of the ski in turn.

Cette transmission d'une partie des efforts exercés sur l'un des éléments de la fixation de ski en un point situé en avant ou en arrière de cet élément de fixation, se fait ici sans recours à des prolongements des plates-formes, vers l'avant et/ou vers l'arrière, en dehors de la zone portant la butée et la talonnière.This transmission of part of the efforts exerted on one of the elements of the ski binding at a point located in front of or behind this element of fixing, is done here without recourse to extensions platforms, forward and / or rearward, outside the area bearing the toe piece and the heel piece.

Selon un mode d'exécution, l'articulation présente un jeu dans la direction longitudinale du dispositif.According to one embodiment, the articulation has a play in the longitudinal direction of the device.

Selon des modes d'exécution, l'une des plates-formes présente des bras parallèles s'étendant en direction de la plate-forme présentant le prolongement, bras par lesquels les plates-formes sont articulées. Ces bras peuvent être soit rapportés à la plate-forme ou venus d'une pièce avec la plate-forme. According to embodiments, one of the platforms has parallel arms extending in the direction of the platform with the extension, arms by which the platforms are articulated. These arms can either be brought back to the platform or come of a room with the platform.

Selon un mode d'exécution, les bras sont articulés sur la plate-forme qui les porte avec un jeu angulaire limité.According to one embodiment, the arms are articulated on the platform that carries them with an angular play limit.

De préférence, la plate-forme présentant ledit prolongement ne repose sur le ski que par des zones situées à ses extrémités.Preferably, the platform presenting said extension rests on the ski only by zones located at its ends.

Les extrémités des plates-formes présentent avantageusement des creusures au fond desquelles sont formées des trous oblongs pour le passage de vis de fixation au ski et le dispositif comprend en outre des douilles emboítables dans les creusures et munies d'un trou cylindrique de passage de vis, ces douilles étant disposées aux extrémités des plates-formes que l'on désire relier au ski sans possibilité de déplacement longitudinal. Il est ainsi possible de choisir l'extrémité de la plate-forme que l'on désire fixer au ski sans jeu longitudinal.The ends of the platforms have advantageously recesses at the bottom of which are formed oblong holes for the passage of screws binding to the ski and the device further comprises sockets nestable in the recesses and provided with a cylindrical screw passage hole, these sockets being arranged at the ends of the platforms that are wish to connect to the ski without possibility of displacement longitudinal. It is thus possible to choose the end of the platform that you want to attach to the ski without longitudinal play.

Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, un mode d'exécution de l'invention et une variante de celui-ci.The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, a mode of the invention and a variant thereof.

La figure 1 est une vue en plan du dispositif de rehaussement, sans les éléments de la fixation de ski.Figure 1 is a plan view of the enhancement, without the elements of the ski binding.

La figure 2 est une vue en élévation de ce même dispositif, à une échelle plus petite et avec les éléments de fixation de ski.Figure 2 is an elevational view of the same device, on a smaller scale and with the ski binding elements.

La figure 3 est un éclaté de la figure 1. Figure 3 is an exploded view of Figure 1.

La figure 4 illustre une variante d'exécution aux bras articulés.Figure 4 illustrates an alternative embodiment to the arms articulated.

Le dispositif de rehaussement représenté aux figures 1 à 3 comprend une plate-forme avant 1 prolongée vers l'arrière par deux bras parallèles 2 et 3 fixés sur les côtés de la plate-forme avant au moyen de deux rivets 42, 43 et d'une plate-forme arrière 4 présentant un prolongement vers l'avant 5 de largeur inférieure à la largeur de la plate-forme 4 de manière à pouvoir s'engager entre les bras 2 et 3, la plate-forme arrière 4 étant articulée aux bras 2 et 3 par son prolongement 5. L'articulation est réalisée par un axe 6 retenu par une vis 7 pouvant se visser dans l'extrémité de l'axe 6. L'axe 6 traverse les bras 2 et 3 par deux lumières 8 et 9 s'étendant longitudinalement selon la direction des bras, et la plate-forme 4 par l'un des trois trous 10 formés dans la partie 5. L'axe d'articulation est proche de la chaussure. La plate-forme 1 présente trois systèmes de trous filetés 11 pour la fixation de l'élément de fixation de ski avant constitué d'une butée 12 dans trois positions différentes. De même, la plate-forme arrière 4 présente trois ensembles de trous filetés 13 pour la fixation d'un élément de fixation de ski arrière ou talonnière 14 dans trois positions différentes.The raising device shown in Figures 1 to 3 includes a front platform 1 extended towards the rear by two parallel arms 2 and 3 fixed on the sides of the front platform by means of two rivets 42, 43 and a rear platform 4 having a forward extension 5 of width less than the width of platform 4 so that engage between arms 2 and 3, the rear platform 4 being articulated on arms 2 and 3 by its extension 5. The articulation is carried out by an axis 6 retained by a screw 7 which can be screwed into the end of the axis 6. The axis 6 crosses the arms 2 and 3 by two lights 8 and 9 extending longitudinally in the direction arms, and platform 4 through one of the three holes 10 trained in part 5. The axis of articulation is close to the shoe. Platform 1 has three threaded hole systems 11 for fixing the front ski binding element consisting of a stop 12 in three different positions. Likewise, the rear platform 4 has three sets of holes threaded 13 for fixing a fixing element of rear or heel ski 14 in three positions different.

Les plates-formes 1 et 4 ainsi que les douilles sont de préférence en polyamide chargé et les bras 2 et 3 en aluminium. Les bras 2 et 3 pourraient toutefois être venus d'une pièce de moulage avec la plate-forme 1. Platforms 1 and 4 as well as the sockets are preferably in loaded polyamide and arms 2 and 3 in aluminum. Arms 2 and 3 could however be come from a molding with the platform 1.

Comme on peut le voir à la figure 2, le dispositif de rehaussement est représenté monté sur un ski 15, la plate-forme arrière 4 ne repose sur le ski 15 que dans des zones réduites 16 et 17 situées à ses extrémités. Entre ces zones, la face inférieure 18 de la plate-forme 4 est légèrement concave.As can be seen in Figure 2, the enhancement is shown mounted on a ski 15, the rear platform 4 rests on the ski 15 only in reduced areas 16 and 17 located at its ends. Between these zones, the underside 18 of the platform 4 is slightly concave.

A l'avant, la plate-forme 1 présente une creusure rectangulaire 19 au fond de laquelle sont formés deux trous oblongs 20, 21 s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du dispositif, c'est-à-dire du ski 15. Ces trous 20 et 21 servent à la liaison de la plate-forme 1 au ski 15. A son extrémité arrière, la plate-forme arrière 4 présente une creusure rectangulaire 23 identique à la creusure 19 et au fond de cette creusure 23 sont formés deux trous oblongs 24 et 25 identiques aux trous 20 et 21 pour la liaison de cette extrémité de la plate-forme 4 au ski par deux vis. L'extrémité du prolongement 5 présente deux creusures oblongues 26 et 27 situées côte à côte et s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du dispositif de rehaussement. Le fond de ces creusures 26 et 27 présente des trous oblongs 28 et 29 identiques aux trous 24 et 25, laissant subsister une battue entre les trous et les creusures 26 et 27.At the front, platform 1 has a recess rectangular 19 at the bottom of which two are formed oblong holes 20, 21 extending parallel to the axis longitudinal of the device, that is to say of the ski 15. These holes 20 and 21 are used to link platform 1 skiing 15. At its rear end, the platform rear 4 has a rectangular recess 23 identical to recess 19 and at the bottom of this recess 23 are formed two oblong holes 24 and 25 identical at holes 20 and 21 for the connection of this end from platform 4 to ski by two screws. The end of the extension 5 has two oblong recesses 26 and 27 located side by side and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the raising device. The bottom of these recesses 26 and 27 has holes oblong 28 and 29 identical to holes 24 and 25, leaving a beat between the holes and the recesses 26 and 27.

Si on solidarise les plates-formes 1 et 4 au moyen de vis introduites sans autre dans les trous 20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, on constate que les plates-formes pourront toutes deux se déplacer longitudinalement sur le ski. Or il est nécessaire que l'une des extrémités des plates-formes soit fixée au ski sans pouvoir se déplacer. A cet effet, on dispose dans les creusures des extrémités des plates-formes que l'on désire fixer au ski sans possibilité de déplacement des douilles telles que les douilles 30, 31 et 32 présentant des passages de vis circulaires 33, 34, 35, 36 laissant passer les vis sans jeu. La douille 30 est en fait une double douille formée de deux douilles 30a et 30b dont le profil correspond à la forme des trous oblongs 20 et 21 et 24 et 25, de sorte qu'elle peut venir s'emboíter sans jeu dans les trous 20 et 21 ou 24 et 25. De même, les douilles 31 et 32 ont une forme correspondante à la forme des trous 28 et 29 de manière à pouvoir s'emboíter sans jeu dans ces trous 28 et 29.If we join platforms 1 and 4 using screws introduced without other into the holes 20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, we see that the platforms can both move longitudinally on the ski. Now it is necessary that one of the ends of the platforms be fixed to the ski without being able to move. For this purpose, we have in the recesses of the ends of the platforms that one wishes to fix skiing without the possibility of shifting the sockets such as sockets 30, 31 and 32 having circular screw passages 33, 34, 35, 36 leaving pass the screws without play. The socket 30 is in fact a double socket formed by two sockets 30a and 30b of which the profile corresponds to the shape of the oblong holes 20 and 21 and 24 and 25, so that it can come to nest without play in holes 20 and 21 or 24 and 25. Likewise, the sockets 31 and 32 have a shape corresponding to the forms holes 28 and 29 so that fit without play in these holes 28 and 29.

Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure 1, la double douille 30 est utilisée à l'avant de la plate-forme 1 et les deux douilles 31 et 32 sont en place à l'extrémité du prolongement 5. La liaison arrière de la plate-forme 4 peut se déplacer longitudinalement par rapport au ski, tandis que les bras 2 et 3 peuvent se déplacer relativement au ski grâce aux lumières 8 et 9.In the example shown in Figure 1, the double socket 30 is used at the front of platform 1 and the two sockets 31 and 32 are in place at the end of the extension 5. The rear link of the platform 4 can move longitudinally by compared to skiing, while arms 2 and 3 can be move relatively to the ski thanks to lights 8 and 9.

Il est toutefois possible de libérer l'extrémité avant de la plate-forme 1, en supprimant la double douille 30 et de fixer les bras 2 et 3 au ski. A cet effet, les bras 2 et 3 présentent, en arrière des lumières 8 et 9, des trous cylindriques 37 et 38 pour le passage de l'axe 6.It is however possible to release the front end of platform 1, removing the double socket 30 and attach arms 2 and 3 to the ski. To this end, the arms 2 and 3 have, behind lights 8 and 9, cylindrical holes 37 and 38 for the passage of axis 6.

Il est également possible de fixer l'arrière de la plate-forme arrière 4 au ski en plaçant la double douille 30 dans la creusure 23. Dans ce cas, les douilles 31 et 32 ne sont pas utilisées.It is also possible to fix the back of the rear platform 4 to ski by placing the double socket 30 in the recess 23. In this case, the sockets 31 and 32 are not used.

Les différents choix de libération des plates-formes avant et arrière permettent de modifier le comportement du ski, mais dans tous les cas, une partie de l'effort exercé par le skieur dans un plan vertical longitudinal sur la talonnière 14 a pour effet de créer un effort d'appui sur le ski par la zone d'appui 16 du prolongement 5 en avant de l'axe d'articulation des plates-formes.The different platform release choices front and rear change behavior skiing, but in any case, part of the effort exercised by the skier in a longitudinal vertical plane on the heel piece 14 has the effect of creating an effort of support on the ski by the support zone 16 of the extension 5 in front of the articulation axis of the platforms.

Selon une variante représentée à la figure 4, les bras 2 et 3 sont articulés d'un angle limité sur la plate-forme 1. A cet effet les bras 2 et 3 sont articulés à la plate-forme par un seul rivet 40 et ils présentent, d'autre part, une lumière 41 en arc de cercle dans laquelle est engagée l'extrémité correspondante d'un axe ou d'un rivet.According to a variant shown in Figure 4, the arms 2 and 3 are articulated at a limited angle on the platform 1. For this purpose arms 2 and 3 are articulated at the platform by a single rivet 40 and they present, on the other hand, a light 41 in an arc of a circle in which is engaged the corresponding end of a pin or rivet.

Cette liaison des bras 2 et 3 à la plate-forme 1 a pour effet de débrider davantage le ski au niveau de la fixation.This connection of arms 2 and 3 to platform 1 has for effect of further debriding the ski at the level of the fixation.

Il est possible d'intervertir les plates-formes avant et arrière, c'est-à-dire de fixer les bras 2 et 3 sur la plate-forme arrière et de prolonger la plate-forme avant entre ces bras.It is possible to swap the front platforms and rear, i.e. to fix arms 2 and 3 on the rear platform and extend the platform before between these arms.

Au lieu de passer entre deux bras, tels que les bras 2 et 3, le prolongement de l'une des plates-formes pourrait être engagé sous l'autre plate-forme. Instead of passing between two arms, such as arms 2 and 3, the extension of one of the platforms could be hired under the other platform.

Les plates-formes pourraient être prolongées au-delà de leurs liaisons au ski par des parties sans contact direct avec le ski.The platforms could be extended beyond their ski connections by non-contact parties direct with skiing.
