Definitions

  • This invention represents an upgrade of the existing solutions in the field of alpine skis which is to a great extent adjusted to the new conditions of modern skiing.
  • Inventor Strucl in patent No. 2012171667 A1 of 16 June, 2011 also defines the movement of the ski according to the laws of aerodynamics and invents a solution with which the gliding base is stabilised on the back tail section of the ski with a specially shaped gliding surface which ensures better handling of the ski on soft snow surface, but the solution remains unsuitable for harder snow surfaces and for turns where the ski is more tilted into the turn and where the skiing is also carried out along the side of the edge or the ski sidewall.
  • 0622097 A1 shows a two-level system of edges on the ski, the problem of which is that at the moment the grip is transferred onto the upper edge the skier must adopt a completely new balance position, because the edge or the point of the grip changes, which is extremely difficult during movement when turning. Besides the above, during turning, the carved snow was probably wedged at the upper side of the edge under the lower edge and impaired smooth movement of the ski throughout the turn.
  • Patent application of 16 May, 2000 by inventor Eugene, titled Ski Construction demonstrates technological solutions of edges that provide greater grip performance. But because the bottom gliding base is also changed so that it is convex, the handling of such a ski during skiing straight downhill and during transitions from one turn to another is made difficult and unstable, especially because the edges of edges are slightly raised from the snow surface. The solution is probably most suitable for hard icy snow surfaces. There is also the issue of the edges having such a shape that they effectively have two edges, which might hinder the ski in some way and prevent the turn to be performed cleanly.
  • Patent No. EP 2 135644 A1 of 18 March, 2009 titled Three-in-one Alpine Ski by inventor Peezaris also demonstrates an original solution with a shaped gliding base which is shaped so that it utilises as much as possible the human laws of ergonomics and the laws of effective motion of the ski on the mass of snow. The issue once again remains in the case of a larger tilt of the ski when turning, because the sidewall moves through the mass of snow.
  • patent No. 0373 083 A1 of 6 December, 1989 by inventor Fagot presents a design of the ski sidewall which differs on the inside and outside of the ski, but the problem is that on the inside the sidewall runs too much in the vertical direction and thus when tilting the ski hits the mass of the snow which decelerates the ski.
  • Patent No. EP 2745 855 A1 by inventor Grenetier of 20 December, 2013 also depicts construction design of the sidewall which is also too vertical and represents an issue in the event of a greater tilt of the ski. It also clearly depicts the solution to the issue of absorbing vibrations that also appear on the sidewall of the ski.
  • the top part of the sidewall 10 and the top edge 11 hit the mass of snow and prevent the optimal beginning of the turn with the edge 6 carving at the front part of the ski 3. This issue also continues in the central part and in the rear tail part of the ski 4 prevents an optimally reliable and quick exit from the turn.
  • the designs are mainly such that the angles ⁇ 1 of the ski sidewall 12 are too big/steep. Consequently, the carved-off mass of snow, which is the result of the turn being guided along the edge 6, has nowhere to move or its pushing away from the ski is ineffective.
  • a part of the support force from edge 6 is transferred onto the ski sidewall 10 and the upper edge 11, due to which the ski could start yielding which is reflected into the vibrations of the front part all the way to the height under the boot.
  • the support force has substantially shifted from the margin of the edge 2 and the side of the edge 7 onto the ski sidewall 10 and the top edge, a slip and a fall occur.
  • skis such as the gliding base 5, the edge 6, ski sidewall 10 and top layers of the ski 11, are in majority of cases designed so that they do not allow for an optimal transfer of the load force on the ski while steering during a turn onto the margin of the edge 2.
  • the structural elements of the ski shown in figure 7 such as the gliding surface 5, edge 6, ski sidewall 10, top edge and top surface 11, must be structurally changed so that such tilt is fast, accurate, and does not impair or decelerate the movement of the ski throughout all stages of the turn.
  • FIG. 7 shows the ratio between the traditional design and the design according to this patent.
  • the outside edge of the ski sidewall 10, designed according to traditional, existing method 12 runs mainly under the same angle ⁇ 1 as the angle of the edge side 7, or is slightly increased.
  • the snow mass that is pushed out has no space for a more effective ejection away from the side of the edge 7 and the ski. This creates the generally known issue that the ski vibrates and if the tilt of the ski or the force onto the edge 6 does not decrease, a slip occurs and the skier falls.
  • the subject-matter of the invention is a more effective design of the basic structural elements of the ski, such as the gliding base 5, edge 6, ski sidewall 10, top edge and top of the ski 11.
  • Characteristic for the patent is that the ski edge 6 in connection with the ski sidewall 10 and the top edge and top surface 11 is structurally linked in a way 15 that enables a better grip on soft and hard snowy surfaces and so that it also enables a more effective ejection of mass of snow or ice from under the ski, mainly the margin of the edge 2, the edge side 7, and the ski sidewall 10 based on aerodynamic and hydrodynamic laws of motion.
  • the technical issue resolved by the invention refers to the above specifications that the ski moves through mass of air, on the snow surface and through the mass of snow, whereby the solution ensures that the ski has the best possible grip during all the stages of the turn and on all types of snow surfaces.
  • the starting technical solution is designed so that the ski edge 6, at a custom angle of ⁇ depending on the type and way of skiing, passes into the ski sidewall 10 which is at a greater angle of ⁇ than the angle of the edge ⁇ and the ski sidewall 10 is designed in a composite functional concave curve 15 which is shown on figure 8 .
  • the functional concave curve passes into a smaller connecting radius 13 which continues as a straight edge side 7 all the way to the lower point of the edge as the margin of the edge 2.
  • Line 12 shows the traditional design of the sidewall as the outside edge which when the ski is tilted impairs the movement through the mass of snow. Such a solution slows down the ski and prevents making a clean turn.
  • the composite functional concave curve 15 thus when inclining the ski ensures a more effective grip of the edge from the margin of the edge 2 all the way to its top point where it passes into the connecting radius 13.
  • the concave design of the ski sidewall 10 all the way to its closing with the ski's top layers 11 ensures a suitable space for effective ejection of the mass of snow.
  • the shape of the curve and the hydrodynamic laws ensure that the ejection is directed correctly, namely away from the ski, and is very effective.
  • the edge 6 always remains clean all the way from the margin of the edge 2 up to the point it passes into the connecting radius 13.
  • the composite functional concave curve 15 thus ensures a greater transfer of force onto the bottom margin of the edge 2 and also onto the side of the edge 7, therefore the grip of the ski is better and at the same time it also ensures that the ski mostly moves along the margin of the edge 2 or along the side of the edge 7 and in exceptional cases of extreme tilting of the ski also along the part of the composite functional concave curve 15 which is shaped so that the ski glides smoothly and at a reduced degree of friction, because the ejection of carved snow is effective and reliable.
  • Figure 9a shows the design of the functional concave curve 15 all the way from the margin of the edge 2 to the top point of the ski which closes with the top layers of the ski 11.
  • the side of the edge 7 is curved which provides an even greater effectiveness of the grip at the point of the margin of the edge 2 and the edge's side 7.
  • Such a design is especially recommendable on icy snow surfaces.
  • the composite concave curve 15 is designed so that the transitions between the construction materials are completely without edges and smooth.
  • Angle ⁇ 2 of the functional concave curve 15 is in this case relatively large, therefore such a design could be suitable for competitive downhill skis or recreational skis, because when inclining the skier can "lean" on the ski sidewall 10 and thus mitigates the balance problem during all the stages of the turn.
  • Figure 9b shows the design of the composite functional curve 15 which is under a smaller angle ⁇ 2, which provides a smooth, extreme tilting of the ski and guiding the ski solely along the margin of the edge 2 and the side of the edge 7 throughout all the stages of the turn.
  • Figure 9c show the design of the composite functional curve 15 in concave shape with short flat surfaces that run along the entire length of the ski sidewall 10.
  • the characteristic of this design is that individual flat sections achieve a similar functional structural design of the sidewall 10 which provides space for ejecting the mass of snow and a more effective grip of the bottom margin of the edge 2 in the mass of snow when the tilt of the ski is greater.
  • Figure 10 shows the path of the movement of the carved mass of snow from the margin of the edge 2 through the edge side 7 and the composite functional concave curve 15 as the ski sidewall 10 and the leaving of the pushed out mass of snow above the top layers of the ski 11.
  • Such a design of the construction of the ski sidewall 10 creates a space for unimpaired movement of excess or carved mass of snow and its shape and construction characteristic accelerates its movement. At the same time, such a design ensures a more optimal transfer of force onto the margin of the edge 2 and the edge side 7.
  • the movement of the ski with the ski sidewall 10 is designed with a composite functional concave curve 15, and is more effective, because it ensures less friction and greater control of the ski's movement through the mass of snow.
