Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to a binding for a piece of footwear and a piece of sports equipment such as a ski or a skate, comprising a first member attached or attachable to the piece of footwear and a second member attached or attachable to the piece of sports equipment, wherein the first and second members are releasably coupled or couplable with each other and in coupled condition are pivotable with respect to each other, preferably around the coupling.
  • DE 201 08 681 U discloses a cross country ski comprising a base strip to be joined to a shoe on a fixed pushing lever mounted to rotate on the strip and suitable to rotate between a stopping position and a normal horizontal resting position.
  • the pushing lever is mounted to a fixed pivot which is adapted to hold the lever in a stable transverse direction relative to the ski.
  • NL 1 012 630 , US 6,056,299 and EP 1 195 180 show a binding for a skate which in general is of the above-mentioned type.
  • a sportsperson in particular in cross country skiing or -skating where changed or changing conditions may require particular material or differently prepared material such as differently waxed skis, might decide not to change less than optimal material in order not to lose time, especially during the period directly before the start of a tournament.
  • a pivotable binding which allows a rapid decoupling between a piece of footwear and a piece of sports equipment is discussed in NL 1 024 330 by the present inventor, which discloses a frame for a skate which is provided on one side with a device for accommodating a blade or a wheel set and on the opposite side are devices for fixture of a shoe.
  • the frame is divided, and a basic part accommodates the blade or wheel set accommodation devices, together with an upper part which is releasably connected to it, which supports the shoe fixture devices
  • the frame forms part of a folding skate with the basic part divided into an accommodation part to which the blade is fixed and a connecting part which on the front side is pivotably connected to the accommodation part.
  • the connecting part accommodates the upper part to which the shoe is fixed.
  • Such a binding functions very satisfyingly.
  • a main binding member attached to the skate comprising a hinging arrangement, as well as a coupling arrangement to (de)couple a footwear-member to (from) the main binding member.
  • the construction is inherently more complex and therefore heavier and more vulnerable relative to a binding with fewer parts as discussed above.
  • WO 2006/082483 relates to a cross-country or touring ski binding comprising a casing and provided with a reception structure for binding a ski shoe in a hinged manner provided with a closing element.
  • Said closing element is movable in the longitudinal direction of the ski from a closed position, in which the shoe is hinged on the binding, to a shoe releasing position and, optionally vice-versa, by means of an actuating element which is pivotally mounted on the casing.
  • EP 1 314 463 discloses a skate which includes a frame provided on a foot receiver. Rollers are attached to the frame and are turnable freely using axles. The rollers and respective axles are removably mounted on the frame by a quick-acting closure.
  • a binding according to claim 1 is provided.
  • the members of the binding may be easily (de)coupled and the coupling efficiently secured or released without having to use one or more tools.
  • the clamping force is substantially along the pivoting axis.
  • play of the members of the binding with respect to each other may be reduced efficiently.
  • at least one of the first and second members comprises at least one hook or fork for receiving a coupling member therein.
  • the words "hook” or "fork” are used to generally denote a piece of material having an open hole whose perimeter is open to the outside of the material otherwise surrounding the hole, e.g. an open slot or a channel in a flange.
  • the coupling member may be a part of the first or second member of the binding or a separate part for realising a coupling between the first and second members.
  • the coupling member or a fastening device which secures the coupling member and the coupled members to another need not be removed or disassembled altogether. Instead, the coupling arrangement need only be released partially, i.e. just so far that the coupling member may be slid out of (the opening of) the hook or fork.
  • the time required to decouple a binding according to the present invention is considerably less than that needed to fully unscrew a bolt and/or a nut and to disassemble a binding according to the prior art. Further, as there is no need to completely take a, possibly relatively delicate, member apart, there is less risk of soiling, damaging or even losing parts.
  • the coupling comprises a coupling member having a pivot which is rotatably mounted with respect to a housing and that one of the first and second members is attached or attachable to the pivot or to the housing and that the other one of the first and second members is fastened or fastenable, e.g. by clamping, to the housing or to the pivot, respectively.
  • first and second members may be releasably fastened to each other in a relatively easy and quick manner, while providing a hinge for obtaining a smoothly pivoting coupling between the members.
  • the clamping force is substantially along or parallel to the pivoting axis.
  • Fig. 1 shows a cross country ski 1 and a ski boot 2 mounted thereto with a binding 3 according to the present invention.
  • the binding 3 comprises a footwear supporting member or bridge 4 and a base member or bracket 5 mounted to the ski 1.
  • the binding 3 further comprises a stopper 6 mounted to the ski 1.
  • the bridge 4 and the bracket 5 are coupled by means of a coupling member 7.
  • the bridge 4 and the base 5 can pivot with respect to each other around the coupling member 7, in the general vertical plane, i.e. in the same direction as the natural bending of a knee joint of a user wearing the assembly of ski 1, boot 2 and binding 3.
  • the boot or shoe 2 is attached or attachable to the bridge 4 as shown in Fig. 1 in any known or inventive manner.
  • the boot 2 may be screwed to the bridge 4 through holes provided in the bridge 4, which holes are preferably slotted holes so that the position and/or angle of the boot 2 with respect to the bridge 4, and thus to the pivoting axis of the binding, is adjustable.
  • a 'bare' binding 3, i.e. one without a ski boot 2, on a ski 1 is shown in more detail in Figs. 2A-3B .
  • the bracket 5 is generally U-shaped transversal to the ski 1, having two flanges 8 pointing away from the ski 1, and is screwed to the ski 1 though a slotted hole 9 in its base.
  • the slotted hole 9 allows to adjust the position of the bracket 5, and thus of the binding 3 as a whole, with respect to the ski 1.
  • the flanges 8 of the bracket 5 are each formed as a fork for receiving the coupling member 7 therein.
  • the flanges 8 and the forks therein extend parallel to the plane of the pivoting of the binding 3, i.e. in a plane generally parallel to the longitudinal direction of the ski 1 and/or of boot 2 and therewith of the foot of a user.
  • the coupling member 7 is provided with a manually operable lever 10 and a nut 11.
  • This coupling member 7, which is illustrated in more detail in Fig. 4 , is integrated in the bridge 4 and is of the quick-release skewer-type, i.e. a cam operated lever system provided with a hollow axle;
  • the coupling member 7 comprises the lever 10, the nut 11 and a central traction rod 12, pivotably connected to the lever 10 at the position indicated with the letter "P" on the one side and screwed to the nut 11 on the other side.
  • the coupling member further comprises, arranged around the traction rod 12, a washer 13, and a bush 14 which comprises sleeves 15 and 16 having collars 15A and 16A, respectively.
  • the bush 14 is rotatably mounted to a housing, here being integrated in the bridge 4, by means of bearings 17 and 18, respectively.
  • the bush 14 forms a hollow axle around which the housing, and thus the bridge 4, may rotate.
  • the manually operable lever 10 is pivotable about the axis through P perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the traction rod 12.
  • the head 10A of the lever 10 forms an eccentric cam with respect to the pivoting axis of the lever 10 through P, resulting, dependent on the orientation of the lever 10 to the traction rod 12, in an "open” and a “closed” arrangement of the coupling member.
  • the widest part of the head 10A i.e. the cam
  • the lever 10 In the "open” position the lever 10 is substantially inverted, so that the narrowest part of the head 10A faces the nut 11.
  • the effective length of the traction rod 12, i.e. the distance along the traction rod 12 between the pivoting axis of the lever 10 through P and the facing surface of the nut 11, is adjustable by screwing the nut 11 further onto or off the traction rod 12.
  • the eccentric head 10A of the lever 10 allows the nut 11 and the washer 13 to be separable so far in the "open” position that the coupling member 7 can be inserted in and pulled out of the forks in the flanges 8, whereas in the "closed” position the parts between the head 10A and the nut 11, i.e. the washer 13, the flanges 8 and the bush 14, are clamped tightly together.
  • the bridge 4 and the bracket 5 can be (de-)coupled, effectively (dis-)assembling the binding 3, and the coupling releasably fastened by operating the clamping lever 10.
  • the coupling member 7 and/or the flanges 8 etc. may be provided with profiled parts, such as ridges and/or recesses, e.g. for receiving the nut 11, the washer 13 and/or (the collars 15A,16A of) the bush 14 therein.
  • profiled parts such as ridges and/or recesses, e.g. for receiving the nut 11, the washer 13 and/or (the collars 15A,16A of) the bush 14 therein.
  • These ridges and/or recesses can serve as guidance for a user assembling the binding 3, and also for receiving and absorbing shearing forces between the bridge 4 and/or the coupling member 7 and the bracket 5, resulting in additional fixing of the position of the coupling member 7 relative to the bracket 5.
  • a lower fixing force may be allowed, which improves the user-friendliness of the binding 3.
  • the pivoting axis of the shown binding is arranged at or near the front, i.e. the toe, of the boot.
  • the exact position of the axis, e.g. underneath the ball of the foot or in front of the toes can be arranged as desired.
  • the sportsperson pivots his/her foot, and thus the boot 2, with respect to the ski 1 about the pivoting axis.
  • the bridge 4 contacts the stopper 6.
  • the stopper 6 is preferably made of or covered with a somewhat resilient material, e.g. synthetic rubber, to cushion the contact between the bridge 4 and the stopper 6 and/or ski 1.
  • the side faces of the stopper 6 and the corresponding contact surfaces of the bridge 4 are preferably sloping for providing a self-centering effect.
  • the stopper 6 thus cooperates with the bridge 4 for realigning the bridge 4 and the ski 1 to each other, when necessary, and for absorbing tangential forces when skiing in curves and/or when braking, reducing the torque and shearing forces on the coupling member 7 with respect to the bracket 5.
  • Figs. 5A and 5B show another preferred embodiment of a binding for a piece of footwear and a piece of sports according to the present invention, viz. a clap-skate 20.
  • parts which are essentially equivalent to those in Figs. 1-4 are indicated with the same reference numeral.
  • the clap-skate 20 comprises a skate 21 and a binding 3.
  • the binding 3 comprises a bridge 4, a bracket 5 and a coupling member 7.
  • the skate 21 comprises a blade 22 mounted to a tube 23.
  • the bracket 5 is attached to the tube 23.
  • the tube 23 has a tapered upper side.
  • the bridge 4 is provided with a forked rear part, provided with a resilient lining 24.
  • the material and shapes of the tube 23 and the lining 24 provide a combined self-centering and cushioning effect, similar to that of the stopper 6 and the bridge 4 of the embodiment discussed previously.
  • the construction and operation of the coupling member 7 is essentially equal to those of the embodiment discussed previously.
  • the lever 10 is longer, which allows to increase the ratio between the clamping force provided by the lever 10 and the necessary manual force for its operation.
  • the user-friendliness and reliability of the binding 3 and therefore of the assembly 20 are increased.
  • the bridge 4 and skate 21 may be provided with an arrangement for a spring for pulling the bridge 4 and the skate 21 together to the initial, substantially parallel state, e.g. during the part of a skating stroke where the skate is lifted from the ice.
  • the binding may be realized in substantially opposite fashion to the shown embodiments.
  • the bridge then comprises a fork, and the bracket is provided with a coupling member.
  • a benefit of an embodiment with the coupling member not being attached to the piece of footwear is that it allows to attach relatively simple means with forks or hooks to the piece of footwear or to integrate the two. This allows a user to walk on the shoe or boot without risking to damage or soil a coupling member attached to the shoe.
  • the bridge may be provided with rubber protrusions to act as a sole for walking.
  • a separate sole attachable to the footwear-member of the binding may be provided for allowing a user to walk thereon.
  • the materials of the bridge and the bracket are preferably relatively strong, stiff and light.
  • the materials are preferably relatively insensitive to temperature fluctuations between the outside, where they binding may be used, and the indoors, where they may be donned, i.e. between ca. plus and minus 25 °C.
  • Suitable materials are therefore metals such as aluminium, carbonreinforced epoxy resins and/or plastics.
  • the binding may be realized with the members for the pieces of footwear and sports equipment and the coupling member formed as three or more separate, releasably attachable, parts.
  • the binding may also comprise only one fork for receiving the coupling member therein, e.g. by an asymmetrically formed bracket having a single forked flange.
  • the binding may further be realised with a manually operable screwed connection using e.g. a wing nut or a knurled knob.
  • the fastening arrangement may be mounted on or integrated with the coupling member as well as on one of the first and second members.
  • An especially robust coupling member may be realised with a simple fixed pivot, e.g. fixed protrusions, which, especially when received in a plastic-lined fork, e.g. lined with poly-tetrafluorethylene (PTFE, Teflon®), may allow sufficiently smooth rotation of the binding. Securing of the coupling may then be arranged by suitably closing off the exit of the fork with a manually operable, possibly springloaded, lock-bolt.
  • PTFE poly-tetrafluorethylene
  • Such an embodiment may e.g. be used with snow shoes or walking soles, for which the smoothness of the pivoting action is less important than for skating or cross country skiing.
  • the binding especially when used for a ski, may further be provided with means, e.g. a strap, a clamp or a hook, for fixing the relative positions of the binding members, preferably in a substantially parallel or closed position, e.g. for walking or for downhill skiing.
  • means e.g. a strap, a clamp or a hook
  • the fork openings are formed substantially straight and pointing away from the ski, skate and/or shoe to which they are attached, but different orientations and other shapes are also possible, e.g. a smoothly curved or rather L-shaped channel, or one having a varying width along its length and/or a slot which opens towards the front or rear of the ski.
  • the orientation of the pivoting axis of the inventive binding may be mounted at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the piece of sports equipment, should this be preferred.
