Description

Domaine technique de l'inventionTechnical field of the invention

L'invention concerne un crampon à glace pour l'alpinisme, comportant une barrette de liaison entre des cadres antérieur et postérieur, la barrette de liaison comportant des première et seconde rangées parallèles de trous échelonnés à intervalles réguliers, et des moyens de blocage, de manière à régler la longueur du crampon.The invention relates to an ice-cream crampon for mountaineering, comprising a connecting bar between anterior and posterior frames, the connecting bar having first and second parallel rows of holes staggered at regular intervals, and locking means, so as to adjust the length of the crampon.

État de la techniqueState of the art

Les crampons à glace connus possèdent généralement une barrette de liaison à trous permettant le réglage en longueur au moyen d'une vis traversant l'un des trous, et destinée à être vissée au moyen d'un tournevis ou d'une clé dans le cadre postérieur de l'armature métallique. Il est également connu de remplacer la vis par une languette de verrouillage. Dans ces crampons connus à une seule rangée de trous, la précision du réglage définie par la distance entre deux trous adjacents est parfois insuffisante.Known ice spikes generally have a connecting bar to holes for length adjustment by means of a screw passing through one of the holes, and intended to be screwed using a screwdriver or a wrench into the posterior frame of the metal frame. It is also known to replace the screw by a locking tab. In these crampons known to only one row of holes, the precision of the adjustment defined by the distance between two holes adjacent is sometimes insufficient.

Le document DE9312977 décrit un crampon à glace pour alpinisme pour lequel la barrette de liaison disposée entre les cadres antérieur et postérieur comporte deux rangées de trous échelonnés régulièrement. Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, le document DE9312977U décrit un moyen d'obtenir un réglage précis de la longueur du crampon, en bloquant la barrette de réglage avec deux paires de picots adjacents et respectivement solidaires des cadres antérieur et postérieur. La barrette de liaison comporte deux séries de paires de trous, l'espacement entre deux paires de trous de la première série étant supérieur à l'espacement entre deux paires de trous de la seconde série. Chacune des deux paires de picots coopère avec une paire de trous d'une série, de manière à réaliser deux réglages différents des cadres antérieur et postérieur par rapport à la barrette de liaison. Ce type de réglage nécessitant plusieurs opérations est, cependant, peu pratique à mettre en oeuvre.Document DE9312977 describes an ice spike for mountaineering for which the connecting bar arranged between the front and rear frames comprises two rows of holes staggered regularly. In a particular mode of embodiment, the document DE9312977U describes a means of obtaining an adjustment precise of the length of the crampon, blocking the adjustment bar with two pairs of adjacent pins respectively attached to the front frame and posterior. The link bar has two sets of pairs of holes, the spacing between two pairs of holes in the first series being greater than the spacing between two pairs of holes from the second series. Each of the two pairs of pins cooperates with a pair of holes in a series, so that make two different adjustments to the front and rear frames with respect to the link bar. This type of adjustment requiring several operations is, however, impractical to implement.

Objet de l'inventionSubject of the invention

L'invention a pour but d'obtenir un réglage en longueur du crampon plus précis, simple et rapide à réaliser.The object of the invention is to obtain a more precise adjustment of the length of the crampon, simple and quick to make.

Selon l'invention, ce but est atteint par les revendications annexées et plus particulièrement, par le fait que les trous de la seconde rangée sont décalés longitudinalement par rapport à ceux de la première rangée, les moyens de blocage s'insérant dans l'un des trous de l'une des deux rangées de la barrette de liaison.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the appended claims and more particularly, by the fact that the holes of the second row are offset longitudinally with respect to those of the first row, the means of blocking fitting into one of the holes in one of the two rows of the bar link.

D'autres avantages et caractéristiques ressortiront plus clairement de la description qui va suivre d'un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif et représenté aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :

  • La figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un crampon à glace selon un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention.
  • Les figures 2 à 4 sont respectivement une vue de dessus, une vue en perspective et une vue en coupe d'une partie du crampon selon la figure 1.
    • Other advantages and characteristics will emerge more clearly from the description which follows of a particular embodiment of the invention given by way of nonlimiting example and represented in the appended drawings, in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of an ice spike according to a particular embodiment of the invention.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 are respectively a top view, a perspective view and a sectional view of part of the crampon according to FIG. 1.

    • Description de modes particuliers de réalisation.Description of particular embodiments.

    Comme représenté sur la figure 1, un cadre antérieur 1 et un cadre postérieur 2 d'une armature métallique 3 d'un crampon à glace pour l'alpinisme sont reliés par une barrette de liaison longitudinale 4. La barrette de liaison 4 comporte deux rangées de trous 5 échelonnés à intervalles réguliers le long de la barrette, les trous de la seconde rangée de trous étant décalés longitudinalement par rapport à ceux de la première rangée. Les deux rangées de trous permettent ainsi un réglage plus précis en longueur du crampon, en fonction de la pointure de chaussure.As shown in Figure 1, a front frame 1 and a rear frame 2 of a metal frame 3 of an ice spike for mountaineering are connected by a longitudinal connecting bar 4. The connecting bar 4 comprises two rows of holes 5 staggered at regular intervals along the strip, the holes of the second row of holes being offset longitudinally by compared to those in the first row. The two rows of holes allow thus a more precise adjustment in length of the crampon, according to the size shoe.

    Un trou de la seconde rangée est de préférence disposé à égale distance de deux trous adjacents de la première rangée, ceci permettant d'ajuster la longueur du crampon à une demi-pointure.A hole in the second row is preferably placed at an equal distance from two adjacent holes of the first row, this allows to adjust the length of the stud at half a size.

    Le cadre postérieur 2 comprend une traverse horizontale 8, dotée dans sa partie centrale d'un étrier de guidage fixe 10 dans lequel est insérée la barrette de liaison 4. Celle-ci peut se déplacer longitudinalement à travers l'étrier de guidage10. Le blocage de la barrette de fixation 4, définissant la longueur du crampon, est assuré par l'insertion d'un plot 6 dans un des trous 5. Le plot est porté par une languette souple 7. Une des extrémités de la languette 7 est montée en rotation sur un axe solidaire du cadre postérieur 2, le plot pouvant ainsi s'insérer indifféremment dans un des trous d'une des deux rangées. The rear frame 2 comprises a horizontal cross member 8, provided in its part center of a fixed guide bracket 10 into which the bar is inserted link 4. This can move longitudinally through the stirrup guidage10. The blocking of the fixing bar 4, defining the length of the crampon, is ensured by the insertion of a stud 6 in one of the holes 5. The stud is carried by a flexible tongue 7. One of the ends of the tongue 7 is rotatably mounted on an axis integral with the rear frame 2, the stud being able to thus fit indifferently into one of the holes of one of the two rows.

    La traverse horizontale 8 est disposée entre la languette 7 et la barrette de liaison 4, et comporte une lumière de guidage 9, permettant la traversée du plot 6 lors de son insertion dans l'un des trous 5. La lumière de guidage 9 a de préférence une forme oblongue et une longueur au moins égale à la largeur totale des deux rangées de trous. La lumière de guidage peut également se présenter sous la forme de deux orifices séparés, respectivement disposés en regard de l'une des deux rangées de trous.The horizontal crosspiece 8 is disposed between the tongue 7 and the bar of link 4, and includes a guide light 9, allowing the stud to pass through 6 when inserted into one of the holes 5. The guide light 9 has preferably an oblong shape and a length at least equal to the width total of the two rows of holes. The guide light can also be present in the form of two separate orifices, respectively arranged in look at one of the two rows of holes.

    Comme représenté sur la figure 2, le plot 6, guidé par la languette 7 et la lumière de guidage 9, peut être inséré dans un trou 5 de l'une ou l'autre des deux rangées. La languette 7 est représentée en trait plein lorsque le plot est inséré dans la première rangée et en pointillés quand il est inséré dans la deuxième. La rotation de la languette 7 doit être suffisante pour permettre au plot d'atteindre les deux rangées de trous.As shown in FIG. 2, the stud 6, guided by the tongue 7 and the guide light 9, can be inserted into a hole 5 in either two rows. The tongue 7 is shown in solid lines when the stud is inserted in the first row and dotted when inserted in the second. The rotation of the tongue 7 must be sufficient to allow the stud to reach the two rows of holes.

    Comme représentée sur les figures 3 et 4, la languette 7 peut être soulevée par son extrémité libre pour extraire le plot 6 du trou 5 de la barrette de liaison 4 et débloquer la barrette de liaison. L'extrémité libre de la languette comporte de préférence une partie élargie et évidée 11, permettant de soulever facilement la languette 7. La languette est dans un matériau suffisamment souple et élastique pour permettre ce soulèvement, tout en conservant normalement la position correspondant à l'insertion du plot dans l'un des trous.As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the tongue 7 can be lifted by its free end to extract the stud 6 from the hole 5 of the connection bar 4 and unlock the link bar. The free end of the tongue has preferably an enlarged and hollowed out portion 11, making it easy to lift the tongue 7. The tongue is made of a sufficiently flexible and elastic material to allow this lifting, while normally maintaining the position corresponding to the insertion of the stud in one of the holes.

    Le plot 6 comporte de préférence une tige et une tête aplatie, destinée à le fixer à la languette 7. La tige, de forme sensiblement cylindrique, s'insère par son extrémité libre dans le trou 5 par l'intermédiaire de la lumière 9. Pour une meilleure insertion, l'extrémité libre du plot peut être arrondie.The stud 6 preferably comprises a rod and a flattened head, intended to fix it with the tongue 7. The rod, of substantially cylindrical shape, is inserted by its free end in the hole 5 via the light 9. For a better insertion, the free end of the stud can be rounded.

    Il est clair que le plot 6 peut être remplacé par une vis ou un boulon. It is clear that the stud 6 can be replaced by a screw or a bolt.

    Les moyens de blocage et les deux rangées de trous permettent non seulement d'obtenir une bonne précision de réglage mais aussi un ajustement en longueur facile et sans outil.The locking means and the two rows of holes not only allow to obtain good adjustment precision but also a length adjustment easy and without tools.
