Definitions
- the invention relates to a fin according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Surfboards for water sports such as surfboards, windsurf boards, kiteboard boards and the like, as well as boats such as sails or motor boats, are equipped with one or more fins protruding from the underside of the surfboard or boat and necessary or useful for controlling and stabilizing the surfboard or boat are.
- an obstacle e.g. a beach
- Finns are usually mounted in a fin box on the surfboard or boat, with damage to the fin box in particular resulting in a time-consuming and usually very expensive repair.
- the aforementioned US Pat. No. 5,813,890 A therefore proposes a fin in which a fin head and a fin sheet are elastically connected to each other, so that the fin sheet can be pivoted relative to the fixed to the surfboard fin head with lateral force.
- This avoids damage to the fin, fin box and surfboard to a certain extent during lateral movement of the board in the case of ground contact, for example in the surf.
- the problem here is that even during normal surfing without grounding the side, so transversely to the direction of travel, acting forces can be so large that the fin swings laterally while driving and thus loses its control function.
- both fasteners with resilient snap member and fasteners with a pull-out or a fastening bolt with predetermined breaking point are known, however, all of which are effective only against the direction of travel force.
- the object of the invention is to improve the fin of the type mentioned in that it is destructively separated from the surfboard or boat with excessive force in any direction and is still held at normal ride on the surfboard or boat.
- the fin should thus be released from the board or boat during ground contact both by longitudinal forces and also by transverse forces, while normal travel through the water does not pivot, even at high transverse forces, with the exception of a desired intrinsic elasticity of the material.
- the basic principle of the invention is to couple the fin head and the fin blade together by a shear bolt, which has at least one, preferably two, predetermined breaking points, the coupling point between the fin head and the fin blade producing a form-fitting, rigid or non-hinged connection.
- Fig. 1 is an exploded view of the fin according to the invention in side view
- FIG. 2 a shows an exploded view of the fin in a sectional end view according to the section line H-II of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 2b shows a view similar to FIG. 2 according to a variant of the invention
- FIG. Fig. 3 is a side view of the fin in mounted
- FIG. 4 shows a section along the line IV-IV of FIG
- Fig. 5 is a plan view of a shear pin according to a development of the invention.
- Fig. 6 is a longitudinal section of the shear pin of Fig. 5;
- Fig. 7 is a longitudinal section of a Scherzbolzens according to a further embodiment of the invention.
- the fin denoted in its entirety by the reference 1 has a fin head 2 and a fin sheet 3, which are coupled to each other by means of a shear pin 4.
- the fin head 2 can be used in a known manner in a fin box 5 of a surfboard 6.
- the fin box 5 and the fin head are designed for the so-called FCS fin system, which is very widespread for surfers. It should be noted, however, that the invention is applicable to any type of connection between fin and surfboard or boat.
- the fin head 2 has two projections 1 and 8 which fit into mounts 9 and 10 of the FCS system
- Fin box 5 can be used and secured by screws, not shown.
- the body of the fin head 2 has a central recess 11, so that two projections 12 and 13 remain on both sides (in the side view of FIG. 1), each having a bore 14 and 15, these two bores 14 and 15 aligned along a common axis 16.
- a semicircular centering projection 17 is provided, on both sides of which substantially flat end faces 18 and 19 join.
- edges of the projections 12 and 13, which point towards the recess 11, have circular curved side surfaces 35 and 36 with a radius 20 or 21, the center of the circle being at the base against the direction of travel being the fulcrum around which the fulcrum sheet 3 at break of the shear pin 4 relative to the fin head 2 can be pivoted.
- the end faces of the projections 12 and 13 are flat.
- the fin blade 3 has a projection 22 which is exactly adapted to the recess 11 of the fin head 2 and has corresponding side surfaces 37 and 38 with corresponding radii. On both sides of the projection 22 are thus recesses 12 'and 13' present whose end surfaces are flat.
- the projection 22 has a bore
- the facing the fin head 2 top of the projection 22 has a groove 24 which is adapted to the centering projection 17 and two laterally adjoining planar end faces 25 and 26, which mounted fin 1 with the end faces 18 and 19 at the bottom of the recess 11 of the fin head 2 come into contact.
- the connection between the fin head 2 and fin sheet 3 is effected by the shear pin 4, whose diameter is adapted to the bores 14, 15 and 23 and which here has two predetermined breaking points 27 and 28.
- the SoIl- fracture parts 27 and 28 are, as better seen in Fig. 3, located exactly in the gap between the projection 22 and the projections 12 and 13, when the shear pin 4 is correctly inserted into the bores 14, 15 and 23.
- the predetermined breaking points 27 and 28 are material weakenings, which are generated for example by milling. They extend obliquely to the central axis of the shear pin, so that they are in the side view about the contour of the gap between the projection 22nd and adjust the projections 12 and 13.
- the length of the shear pin 4 is preferably chosen so that its two ends are flush with the fin head 2, wherein the end faces 29 and 30 of the shear pin are adapted to the contour of the corresponding end faces of the fin head 2.
- a locking pin 31 is provided, which extends in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shear pin 4 bore
- a corresponding bore 34 can also be provided in the fin blade 3.
- the bore 33 in the fin head 2 may be formed as a blind hole. But it can also be designed as a through hole, so that the locking pin 31 can be inserted from above through the fin head 2. In this case, the bore 34 can be omitted in the fin sheet 3.
- the predetermined breaking points 27 and 28 exactly in the transition region or gap between the projection 22 of the fin sheet and the two projections 12 and 13 adjacent to the recess 11 are arranged. 4 that the connection between the fin head 2 and the fin blade 3 is positively stable, since the corresponding end faces 18, 19 and 25, 26 on both sides of the centering projection 17 and the groove 24 and thus prevent lateral pivoting of the fin sheet 3 relative to the fin head 2.
- the shear pin 4 When force transverse to the direction of travel, so for example in the direction of the force F2 in Fig. 4, the shear pin 4 also at the two predetermined breaking points 27 and 28 break substantially simultaneously and the fin blade 3 is also non-destructively separated from the fin head 2.
- the predetermined breaking points 27 and 28 are to be dimensioned so that the fin sheet 3, the fin head 2 and the fin box 5 is not damaged.
- a safety cable 39 can be provided which maintains a connection between the fin blade 3 and the fin head 2.
- the safety cable 39 can in corresponding recesses 40 of the fin head 2 and the fin sheet third be housed or connected to the locking pin 31.
- the material for the fin head 2 and the fin sheet 3 particularly copolymeric polyoxymethylene has been suitable in terms of machinability, notched impact strength, elongation at break, modulus of elasticity, yield stress, service temperature, water and moisture absorption, and price, while the shear pin is preferably made of polypropylene.
- the grooves required for the predetermined breaking points 27 and 28 are preferably milled so that, depending on the cutting depth, the force can be set at which the shearing of the shear bolt 4 takes place.
- Breaking test V2 Groove diameter at the predetermined breaking points: 4 mm Force direction: lateral Breaking force: approx. 50 N
- Breaking test V3 Groove diameter at the predetermined breaking points: 5 mm Force direction: from the front Breaking force: approx. 300 N
- Breaking test V4 Groove diameter at the predetermined breaking points: 5 mm Force direction: lateral Breaking force: approx. 90 N
- FIGS. 5 to 7 show developments of the shear pin 4, which can be used in the embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 4.
- the shear pin 4 of FIGS. 5 to 7 has at its one end a schzylin- drischen body 41 whose central axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 16 of the shear pin.
- This semi-cylindrical body 41 may be made in one piece with the shear pin 4 made of plastic.
- a bent, in particular semicircular curved cap 42 is attached to this end of the shear bolt, which has at its two ends locking pin 43 and 44.
- the semi-cylindrical body 41 and the cap 42 take over in this embodiment substantially the function of the securing pin 31 of the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 3.
- the fin head 2 and the fin blade 3 have in this embodiment in the front region (relative to the direction of travel) a semi-cylindrical groove (not shown), in which the semi-cylindrical body 41 engages and thereby aligns the shear pin 4 in the rotational direction about its longitudinal axis 16.
- the cover cap 42 covers the front region of the fin. nenkopfes 2 and / or the fin blade 3 and engages with the detents 43 and 44 in corresponding recesses, whereby the shear pin 4 is secured and at the same time the leading edge of the fin head 2 and / or the fin sheet 3 according to the contour of the same covered and thus closed.
- the shear pin 4 has a central bore 45 which extends substantially over the entire length of the shear pin 4. Inside this bore 45 a catch 39 is arranged, which is connected at its two ends 47 and 48 with the shear pin 4. The end 47 is attached to a plug 46 while the end 48 is secured to the body 41.
- the arresting cable 39 of FIG. 6 is replaced by an elastically expansible filling material 50, which is produced, for example, in a two-component injection molding technique together with the shear bolt 4.
- the filling material 50 expands as a safety rope and thus holds the fin blade 3 likewise on the fin head 2.
- the shear pin 4 is made of solid but brittle material whose breaking behavior can be defined by the hardness of the material.
- plastics for this purpose include polycarbonate, ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer), POM (polyoxymethylene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate).
- Suitable for the filler 50 are flexible and ductile plastics, such as e.g. Soft PVC, silicone or rubber.
- a flexible and stretchable material can be taken.
- material with low elasticity but high tear strength in which case the safety rope 39, as shown in FIG. 6, is to be taken with sufficient "rope reserve", so that when the shear bolt 4 breaks, the fin blade 2 will be sufficiently far from the fin head Can remove 3 and still held by the safety cable 39.
- the body 41 may have other shapes - as shown -, for example, rectangular or wedge-shaped, wherein then the groove in the fin head 2 and / or the fin sheet 3 is adjusted accordingly.
