Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rear retaining element for binding a boot to a ski, particularly suitable for ski touring. It also relates to a device for fixing a boot to a ski incorporating such a rear retaining element. Finally, it also relates to a ski to which is fixed such a binding device or such a rear holding element.
  • ski touring requires two different phases of ski operation.
  • a first phase of ascent or more generally of walking, the skier advances by lifting his heel, which is not secured to the ski.
  • no ski braking device is used.
  • a second phase of descent the skier has his boot fully secured to the ski, and practices skiing as in the case of alpine skiing. He therefore needs a binding device equipped with a trigger mechanism allowing him an automatic release of the boot in the event of a fall, to avoid any injury and ensure his safety.
  • a braking device is then also essential to automatically brake the ski in the event of the binding device being released, to prevent the ski from continuing to slide.
  • the braking device of the ski touring is generally equipped with a locking device, which makes it possible to block it and make it inactive in the first ascent phase.
  • the locking device When going downhill, the locking device is in an unlocked configuration, in which the brake operates similarly to the brakes fitted to alpine skis.
  • the document WO2012 / 024809 A1 describes this type of braking device for hiking which discloses a heel grip with a vertical axis of rotation for the release and whose locking device is fixed relative to the pedal of the braking device.
  • the existing solutions remain unsatisfactory and the object of the present invention is to provide a braking device for ski touring which is simple, user-friendly and reliable.
  • the invention is based on a rear retaining element for a binding of a boot on a ski according to claim 1.
  • the release lever can comprise an actuating element, in particular at least one cam, of the locking device. It can act by directly pressing on the locking device, in particular its locking member.

  • the invention also relates to a ski characterized in that it comprises such a ski binding device.
  • the longitudinal axis X as the horizontal axis extending from the rear to the front of the ski, the front and the rear being defined by the ordinary direction movement of a skier in a straight line, the skier moving from back to front.
  • the transverse axis Y is defined as the horizontal axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X, the left and the right being defined according to the point of view of the skier.
  • the vertical Z axis is perpendicular to the horizontal plane defined by the X and Y axes, oriented upwards. We assume that the ski is resting on level ground.
  • the figure 1 schematically illustrates an embodiment of a ski 1 provided with a binding device 2 according to the invention.

  • Skiing is intended for ski touring. Ski touring mainly comprises two phases of use.
  • the skier During a first phase, called the ascent phase, the skier walks with the ski, generally on sloping terrain which he climbs up.
  • the skier's boot is fixed to the ski only by means of the front support element 3.
  • the front support element comprises a pivot connection of axis Y1, parallel to the transverse axis. Y which allows the skier to lift the heel and thus facilitates his progression in a natural walking movement.
  • the heel of the boot follows a circular path T1 around the axis Y1 of the pivot connection of the front support element.
  • the skier practices skiing in the manner of alpine skiing and descends a sloping terrain.
  • the rear of the boot in particular a heel 6a of the boot, for example by a sidewalk 6b arranged in the heel 6a, is fixed to the ski by means of the rear retaining element.
  • the pivot connection of the front holding element is therefore blocked and the boot is secured to the ski.
  • the skier may have to manipulate the ski to prepare him for the next phase.
  • the skier can stick or take off anti-recoil lint on the ski sole.
  • the ski and / or the binding device could be used for any other sliding sport, for example for telemark, or even alpine skiing or cross-country skiing.
  • the rear retaining element 4 in particular at least partially visible on the figure 8 , comprises a heel grip 7, a braking device 8, a locking device 9 of the braking device 8, and a lever 10. These elements are mounted on a base 11.
  • This base 11 has two vertical fins 30a, 30b positioned on the lateral sides of the base 11 on which is mounted the axis of rotation 31 of the lever 10 and of the heel grip 7.
  • the rear retaining element 4 also comprises a plate 12 comprising guide slides for adjusting the longitudinal position 12 of the base 11, in a known manner, visible on the figure 9 .
  • This device for adjusting the longitudinal position of the base 11 makes it possible to adjust the position of the base on a ski in order to adapt to the size of the boot.
  • the rear support element 4 also comprises a heel rest 14 on which the lower face of the heel of a shoe rests, and which also makes it possible to achieve lateral support of the shoe during the descent phase, thanks in particular to two flanges 14a, 14b on either side of the shoe.
  • the rear retaining element 4 is symmetrical along a longitudinal and vertical median plane of symmetry XZ.
  • the heel grip 7 is movable in rotation between a heel holding position 6a of a shoe, visible on the figures 5 and 6 , in the descent configuration, and an open position in which the heel grip does not hold the heel, for example visible on the figure 4 , in the boot configuration.
  • the heel grip comprises a jaw or an edge 7a extending substantially horizontally forwards.
  • the edge 7a covers the upper surface of a sidewalk 6b to hold the shoe.
  • the force produced by the heel grip to hold the heel of the shoe can be adjusted by means of a release adjustment device 13.
  • a release adjustment device in particular visible on the figures 3 , 6 and 12 , may include a spring 13a and a screw 13b for adjusting the hardness of the spring.
  • the heel grip is movable in a rotational movement relative to the base 11 along an axis parallel to the transverse axis Y between the holding position and the open position. In the open position, the heel grip is therefore tilted backwards by a simple rotation so that the edge 7a is positioned outside the path T1 of the sidewalk 6b of a shoe during the practice of walking, shown on the figure 1 .

  • the heel grip is not animated. a complementary translational movement backwards in the ascent configuration, but in all cases can only take the two positions mentioned above, that is to say the open and hold positions, by a single rotational movement.
  • This solution has the advantage of allowing the rear holding element to have a simple architecture, while making it possible to achieve a configuration favorable to the ascent phase. More precisely, the open position allows both the fitting of the heel piece but also the lifting of the heel of the shoe for the ascent, due to the mounting on the heel grip 7 of a retractable foot pedal 35, as explained by the following.

  • the lever 10 combines different functions: firstly, it is able to control the locking device, secondly, it is able to tilt the heel grip into its open position and thirdly, it is able to form a hold climb aid. As a variant, this third function could be optional.
  • the lever 10 also controls the positioning of the boot pedal 35 of the rear support element.
  • boot position the boot pedal 35 is able to be actuated by a ski boot.
  • the transverse portion 35a is then positioned approximately halfway between the base 11 and the edge 7a of the heel grip.
  • the transverse portion is positioned on the path of the heel of the boot when the boot is attached to the front support element.
  • This position of the boot pedal 35 is obtained when the rear retaining element is in the boot configuration C2.
  • the heel grip 7 switches from its open position to its holding position.
  • the boot pedal 35 descends into a first rest position tilted downwards, against the base, as shown for example on the figure. figure 6 in descent configuration.
  • the transverse portion 35a is embedded in a housing of the heel rest 14 surmounting the base.
  • the transverse portion is then located under the sole of a boot in the descent phase, that is to say in engagement with the heel grip.
  • the boot pedal 35 can also take a second retracted position, tilted upwards, against the heel grip. In this position, the transverse portion is tilted upwards and is positioned directly under the edge 7a of the heel grip which is then in the open position.
  • Such a position of the boot pedal corresponds to the C1 climb configuration of the rear support element and is particularly visible on figures 2, 3 , 8 and 9 .
  • the boot pedal is thus positioned outside the path T1 of the heel of the boot when the ski is used in the ascent phase, that is to say when the boot is only fixed by the front holding element.
  • the boot pedal 35 is therefore not able to be actuated by a ski boot and does not interfere with the tilting movement of the boot (trajectory T1), the heel of the boot then being able to come into contact with the base 11 .
  • the lever 10 is movable in rotation between three rear, front and raised positions. These positions can be distinguished by a rotation of the lever 10 according to an amplitude greater than or equal to 45 degrees between the ascent and entry positions, preferably greater than or equal to 60 degrees.
  • the rear retaining element 4 comprises an indexing mechanism.
  • the indexing mechanism comprises two indexing pins 28 integral with the base, each arranged on either side of the base 11, and more precisely on the internal faces of the lateral fins 30a, 30b of the base 11 , and two counter-forms 29, able to cooperate with the two indexing pins.
  • Each of the counter-forms 29 are hollowed out in each flank 21a, 21b of the outer surfaces of the lever 10.
  • the indexing pins could be on the lever and the counter-forms could be on the base.
  • the indexing mechanism could also include only one lug cooperating with a single counter-form arranged on the left or on the right.
  • the base 11 particularly visible on the figure 13 , comprises a wall forming vertical fins 30a, 30b lateral generally circular in shape and extending in a longitudinal and vertical plane.
  • the wall is provided with an opening 31 supporting the axis Y3 of rotation of the lever 10 and the axis of rotation of the heel grip 7.
  • the wall comprises an interior face turned towards a median plane of the binding and an exterior face , facing outward from the sub-element.
  • the indexing lug is a relief extending vertically on either side of the opening 31.
  • the indexing lug projects with respect to the inner face of the wall of the vertical fins 30a, 30b.
  • the lug may for example have the shape of a cylinder portion.
  • the counter-form comprises three recesses 29a, 29b, 29c.
  • Each recess has a complementary shape to the indexing lug.
  • the three recesses are distributed over an outer face of the side of the lever around the axis Y3.
  • the recesses are separated by angles corresponding to the positioning angles of the lever.
  • the indexing lug is opposite one of the three recesses.
  • each flank is connected to the base by an elastic means oriented transversely, that is to say acting elastically in the transverse direction Y.
  • the elastic means comprises a screw 32, a nut 33 and a Belleville washer 34, or more generally a spring washer, arranged transversely along the Y3 axis and elastically deformable along the Y3 axis.
  • the screw comprises a flat head and a shaft passing through the opening 23 of the side of the lever and the opening 31 of the vertical fins 30a, 30b of the base.
  • the outer face of the wall comprises a circular housing 37 inside which the Belleville washer is housed.
  • the screw head rests on the outer face of the wall of the base, outside the circular housing 37.
  • the Belleville washer rests on the one hand against the screw head and on the other hand against the base wall.
  • the height of the circular housing 37 along the transverse axis Y is defined so that the Belleville washer is compressed to a given height and produces a given reaction force.
  • the force produced by the Belleville washer is independent of the tightening level of the screw because the latter rests on the outside of the circular housing 34.
  • the compression of the Belleville washer depends on the height of the circular housing 37 but does not depend on not the tightening tension of the screw. To summarize, the Belleville washer is interposed between the screw head and the wall of the base.
  • the Belleville washer is interposed between the two parts indexed to each other, that is to say between part of the lever 10 and part of the base 11.
  • the wall of the base is interposed between the Belleville washer and the side of the lever.
  • the side of the lever is interposed between the wall of the base and the nut 33.
  • the position of the indexing pin inside a recess corresponds to a position of least tension in the Belleville washer. Such a position is therefore stable.
  • the position of the indexing pin between two recesses corresponds to a position of greater tension in the Belleville washer, that is to say in which the Belleville washer is compressed in a direction along the axis Y3. Such a position is therefore unstable.
  • the indexing mechanism makes it possible to feel the positions of the lever in which the indexing pin coincides with a recess, that is to say the ascent, entry and raised positions.
  • the advantage of this solution is to obtain three stable positions of the lever, avoiding untimely changes of position of the lever, as well as its premature wear due to significant friction.
  • such an indexing system could as a variant be implemented for any lever of a shoe holding element on a gliding board, for example on a simple lever for opening or blocking a holding jaw.
  • a boot forming the front or rear retaining element of a ski binding, or a displacement lever for adjusting the length of a retaining element, or a retraction lever of a rear retaining element for bring it to a remote position in a climb phase when hiking.
  • the invention also relates to an element for holding a boot on a gliding board, comprising an actuating lever cooperating with the holding element during its rotation by means of an elastic arrangement, allowing to form an indexation defining several stable positions of the lever.
  • the elastic arrangement comprises a screw, a nut and a Belleville washer, or more generally a spring washer, arranged along the axis of rotation of the lever and elastically deformable along this axis.
  • the lever, the heel grip, the base, the actuating member and the pedal of the braking device are made from an injected plastic material.
  • other materials could be considered.
  • a flat washer 36 may be inserted between the Belleville washer and said wall.
  • the locking device of the braking device can be easily operated with an ergonomic lever.
  • the lever being useful for putting on or taking off the ski, the same manipulation makes it possible both to lock or unlock the braking device and to actuate the heel grip.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiment detailed above. It relates more generally to any release lever making it possible to actuate a locking device of a braking device.
  • the link between the lever and the locking device can be any mechanical link, via any actuating element.
  • the lever acts on the locking device by directly pressing on the locking device. More precisely, this direct support is produced on the locking member itself of the locking device or on an element which is integral with it.
  • the lever allows the locking device to be actuated from its locking position to its unlocking position and / or vice versa.
  • the lever also participates in a complementary function of maintaining one or both positions of the locking device.
  • the heel grip contributes in addition to maintaining the locking device in the unlocked position, to increase the reliability of the device. The heel grip has no effect when changing the position of the locking device.
  • the lever passing above the heel grip it offers a greater leverage than the heel grip.
  • the force required to manipulate the lever is therefore lower than to manipulate the heel grip.
  • the lever also serving as a climbing aid wedge II is not useful to provide a specific component for this function. Weight gain can therefore be obtained.
  • the braking device is automatically activated when the skier takes off the ski which increases his safety because the ski cannot be lost when handling the ski
