Definitions

  • the invention relates to a heel holder for a touring ski binding, having a housing structure which can be connected to a ski via a base structure, and an automatic device which is pivotably connected to the housing structure.
  • the heel holder also includes a securing element that is connected to the housing structure, which moves from a first position, in which a ski boot can be entered into the heel holder for a downhill run, to a second position, in which the ski boot can be entered into the Heel holder is locked, can be moved.
  • the heel holder includes a ski brake with at least one braking element that can be adjusted between a contact position in which movement of the ski on a surface is possible and a braking position in which it brakes movement of the ski on the surface.
  • ski brake secured to the ski while walking is released so that the ski can be braked in the event of a fall or other detachment from the ski boot and does not travel down the valley unbraked.
  • freeride bindings that can also be used for touring, it is of great importance that a safe descent with the freeride binding is also possible, for example in deep snow and in rough terrain.
  • the toe holder must be designed to connect a ski boot to the ski in a pivot axis for touring and to be secured for downhill skiing by, for example, a hold-down device in the toe holder. Lateral release must be guaranteed, as well as the problem-free functioning of the ski brake when skiing downhill.
  • Countless ski bindings are known in the prior art, which can be used both for touring and for downhill skiing. With all of these bindings there is the possibility of lowering the ski boot heel in touring mode down to a contact surface of the heel holder, on which the ski boot rests with its heel end in downhill mode.
  • the EP 3 195 909 A1 , the EP 2 813 268 A1 , the EP 2 762 209 A2 , the US2015014963A1 and the DE 10 2016 000 609 A1 called.
  • a first aspect of the invention relates to a touring ski binding, in particular a freeride binding, which is also suitable for touring ascents, for a ski boot.
  • the touring ski binding includes a toe holder and a heel holder, which can assume a first configuration in which the binding can be used for walking and a second configuration for skiing with the binding.
  • the toe holder is constructed in such a way that a ski boot can be connected with its front end to the toe holder in a position for walking and in another position, which is different from the position, for downhill skiing.
  • a ski boot fixed in the toe holder is located further forward on the ski in a walking configuration, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the ski, and in a downhill configuration, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the ski, further back on the ski.
  • the sole holders of the toe holder can be pins, for example, which engage in corresponding receptacles on the ski boot sole and define a pivot axis about which the ski boot can be pivoted when walking.
  • the sole holder can be formed by at least one hold-down device, which presses on the ski boot sole from above and/or from the side.
  • the touring ski binding also includes a ski brake that is or can be connected via the base structure or housing structure and that can be adjusted between a contact position in which movement of the ski on a surface is possible and a braking position in which movement of the ski on the surface is braked .
  • the preferred ski brake is additionally fixed in a securing position on the ski. When descending, this safety position must be released so that the brake remains active and, in the event of a fall, for example, can be adjusted to the braking position in which the braking elements associated with the ski brake preferably operate Spring force can intervene in the snow.
  • the brake elements can preferably be designed in the form of brake paddles known from the prior art.
  • the pins can in particular be two opposite bearing sections with respect to a longitudinal axis of the ski, which in the configuration for walking interact with the corresponding receptacles on the sides of the ski boot sole facing them, which form a counter bearing for the bearing sections.
  • the pins or bearing sections can be moved into and out of the counter bearings essentially transversely to the longitudinal axis of the ski by pivoting the sole holders.
  • the abutment and the bearing elements accommodated therein define a pivot axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the ski in the configuration for walking and connect the ski boot to the touring ski binding in a pivotable manner in the pivot axis.
  • the touring ski binding In the pivoted-away state, in which the bearing elements no longer engage in the counter bearing, the touring ski binding is in an open position, so that the user can get in or out of the touring ski binding, or a change to the configuration for downhill skiing can take place.
  • the heel holder comprises a housing structure that can preferably be connected to a base structure in a stationary manner. It further comprises an automaton which is connected to the housing structure in a pivot joint and which can be pivoted back and forth between a closed position and an open position of the heel holder.
  • the automatic device In the downhill position, the automatic device must be in a closed position so that the heel holder, or at least one sole holder encompassed by the heel holder, connects the ski boot to the ski, and safe descent is thus possible.
  • Closing the heel holder for the downhill position can be done either by stepping the ski boot into the heel holder via a correspondingly formed tread on the machine or by manual operation.
  • the toe holder In the walking position, the toe holder can be in both the closed position and the open position.
  • Triggering force can be set at which the heel holder triggers, for example, in the event of a fall on the descent.
  • a climbing aid or several climbing aids can be provided on the heel holder, which can be moved, for example pivoted, from a rest position into a climbing aid position. If there are several climbing aids, they have different climbing angles.
  • the heel holder includes a securing element with which a ski boot is blocked from entering the heel holder for the touring ski binding in downhill mode, for example if a ski brake, which is connected to the housing structure or the base structure or the ski, is fixed in the securing position on the ski is.
  • the securing element can, for example, prevent the use of the ski with the touring ski binding for downhill skiing as long as the ski brake is not released in order to be able to swing away from the ski towards the ground in a known manner and thereby achieve its braking effect.
  • the securing element thus acts as a blocking or blocking element which, in the blocking position, prevents the heel-side end of the ski boot from being able to be received in the heel holder, in that the securing element forms a vertical stop for the ski boot sole or the automat, which prevents the ski boot from the heel holder can be lowered to a contact surface for the heel-side end of the ski boot.
  • the securing element can preferably be moved relative to the base and the housing in order to move from a rest or entry position, in which the ski with the touring ski binding can be used for downhill skiing, to a locked or entry position, in which the ski can of the binding can be used for walking.
  • the movement of the securing element can be a raising or lowering, a rotating or pivoting movement, but the movement is preferably a purely linear movement with which the securing element is moved from the rest position to the locking position and back.
  • the movement can in particular take place in a plane which runs essentially parallel to the ski surface.
  • the movement can take place in and against the direction of travel of the ski, that is to say along a central longitudinal axis of the ski or the binding.
  • the securing element lies behind the heel-side end of the ski boot, preferably in the area of the housing below the automatic device. In this position it does not hinder the movement of the automat to the closed position for descent.
  • the securing element forms a stop for the machine, against which the machine rests before it can be pivoted into the position in which the ski boot can be secured in the touring binding for downhill skiing.
  • the securing element forms a support for the ski boot or the underside of the ski boot sole at the heel-side end of the ski boot, so that the ski boot cannot enter the touring ski binding or the heel holder so far that the automatic device can be pivoted completely onto the ski boot sole can.
  • the movement of the automaton comes into contact with the heel-side end of the ski boot before it reaches the position in which the sole holders can act on the ski boot sole in order to secure the ski boot in the heel holder for downhill skiing.
  • the ski boot is not connected to the ski, so it is not possible to ski downhill.
  • the machine If the machine is preloaded in the closed position and the open position by a spring element, it can automatically swivel back into the open position if the closed position is not reached, so that the user cannot mistakenly assume that his attempt will damage the machine, e.g. for a descent to pivot to the closed position was successful.
  • the securing element is a humped scoop, ie the stop or stops are designed as local elevations on a plate or plate-like surface.
  • the machine If the machine is preloaded in the closed position and the open position by a spring element, it can automatically swivel back into the open position if the closed position is not reached, so that the user cannot mistakenly assume that his attempt will damage the machine, e.g. for a descent to pivot to the closed position was successful.
  • the securing element can in particular be a hump scoop, that is to say the stop or stops are designed as local elevations on a plate or plate-like surface.
  • the securing element is preferably also in the locked position behind the rear end of the ski boot sole when the ski boot is held in the walking position in the touring ski binding.
  • At least one end of the plate of the hump scoop, pointing away from the local elevations and pointing away from the local elevations, can reach under the heel-side end of the ski boot held in the toe holder in the walking position.
  • this end forms a contact surface for the heel end of the ski boot when walking on flat terrain.
  • the entire securing element, i.e. the plate and the hump or humps, lies behind the heel-side end of the ski boot in the walking position in the touring ski binding in the locked position and in the step-in position, so that the plate does not represent a contact surface.
  • the contact surface for the ski boot is essentially formed by the brake pedal.
  • the heel holder can also include a locking plate that is connected or connectable to the securing element.
  • the securing element can be moved into the locked position and out of the locked position into the boarding position, preferably by hand, via the locking plate or by means of the locking plate.
  • locking plate denotes a specific component, without the term “plate” contained therein implying a material restriction such that the locking plate must be formed from sheet metal or sheet metal. It can also be formed from a plastic, a carbon fabric, a material composite (multilayer) or another suitable material.
  • the locking plate can also be referred to as a spindle plate.
  • the locking plate can preferably be connected to the securing element in such a way that a movement of the locking plate leads to a movement of the securing element in the same direction, essentially by the same distance and at the same speed, and vice versa.
  • the movement is preferably a linear movement.
  • An at least slight pivotability of the securing element relative to the locking plate can be provided by the locking plate being connected to the securing element in at least one swivel joint, that is to say, for example, with an axle held in two bores.
  • a receiving area that is formed onto or connected to the housing structure can include or form a receptacle and/or a guide for the locking plate. This can, for example, prevent the locking plate from bulging or deviating to the side if the movement from the step-in position to the locked position is made more difficult, for example by snow or ice in the heel holder. This can advantageously prevent the movement of the locking plate from being completely transferred to the security element.
  • the receiving area On its surface facing the ski surface, can have additional guide means, such as a projection or a groove, which engage in corresponding means of the base structure for longitudinal and/or lateral positioning. This is particularly advantageous when the heel holder can be adjusted relative to the base structure or the ski in order to be able to adapt the binding to different ski boot sizes.
  • the locking plate can have a handle or lever at its end facing away from the securing element, which can preferably be grasped by hand, in particular by hand without using a tool, in order to move the locking plate together with the securing element.
  • the handle or the lever can preferably be connected to the locking plate in a first rotary or pivot joint and in a second rotary or pivot joint that is different from the first rotary or pivot joint.
  • the axes of the first and the second rotary joint can run transversely to a longitudinal axis of the ski, preferably parallel to a ski surface.
  • the axes of the first pivot joint and the second pivot joint can also be aligned parallel to one another.
  • the free end of the lever i.e. the end that is not connected to the receiving area, preferably points in the direction of the tip of the ski when the securing element is in the locking position, or in the direction of the tail of the ski when the securing element is in the step-in position.
  • the lever is connected to the receiving area at a front end of the receiving area in the direction of the ski, as a result of which the lever is arranged in an area on the ski that lies under the sole of a ski boot accommodated in the binding, regardless of the position of the securing element. This means that the lever does not have to be additionally secured when the binding is used for downhill skiing.
  • securing the lever in the locking position of the securing element can be useful.
  • the backup can be done, for example, by the lever in an over-center position.
  • the locking plate can be connected directly to the securing element.
  • the locking plate preferably comprises a connection structure which is firmly connected to the locking plate, for example welded, glued, riveted or screwed, or is primary formed together with the locking plate.
  • the connection structure is prepared in such a way that it can be connected to the fuse element.
  • the locking plate can include a retaining element that can be moved together with the locking plate and the securing element, the retaining element fixing the ski brake in the securing position on the ski when the securing element is in the blocked position for walking and releasing the ski brake for downhill skiing, when the securing element is in the boarding position.
  • the holding element can at least partially encompass the areas of the brake arms that face one another and run parallel to one another, so that in the load-free state they cannot pivot upwards away from the upper side of the ski and the brake elements cannot therefore engage in the ground to brake the ski.
  • the retaining element can be mushroom-shaped, with a mushroom base that is moved between the brake arms and an umbrella-shaped head that at least partially overlaps the brake arms.
  • the ski brake is secured in the securing position by the holding element practically automatically when the securing element is in the locked position and the ski boot is held in the front position in the pins in the toe holder (corresponds to the walking position).
  • the brake pedal of the ski brake is pressed against the surface of the ski.
  • the brake arms are pressed onto the holding element in the central areas running parallel to one another. Due to the shape of the holding element, the central areas of the brake arms that run parallel to one another and lie opposite one another are elastically pressed apart and return elastically to their original position Position back when the brake arms come into the area of the holding element base.
  • the brake arms are now below the umbrella-shaped head of the holding element, the ski brake can no longer be triggered, but is secured in the laterally adjacent position on the ski by a positive fit.
  • the heel holder can also include a coupling element that forms part of a contact surface for the ski boot and a linear guide for the securing element.
  • the coupling element can be firmly connected to the housing structure, for example screwed or connected in a positive and/or non-positive manner, so that the coupling element cannot become detached from the housing structure.
  • the coupling element can have at least one guide, for example a guide slot or a guide groove, into which a guide body preferably formed on the underside of the securing element engages in order to guide the securing element, in particular a linear guide.
  • a guide slot or a guide groove into which a guide body preferably formed on the underside of the securing element engages in order to guide the securing element, in particular a linear guide.
  • Another aspect of the invention relates to a ski touring binding with a toe holder that can hold the toe-side end of a ski boot sole, so that the ski touring binding can be used for walking and for downhill skiing, and a heel holder as described for the first aspect.
  • the toe end of the ski boot sole is preferably connected to the toe holder in one position for walking and in another position when the touring ski binding is used for downhill skiing.
  • the walking position is different from the downhill position. In the walking position, the distance between the toe end of the ski boot held in the toe holder and the rear end of the ski in the direction of travel is greater than the distance between the toe end of the ski boot held in the toe holder in the further downhill position.
  • the sole holders of the toe holder can be pins, for example, which engage in corresponding receptacles on the ski boot sole and define a pivot axis about which the ski boot can be pivoted when walking.
  • the sole holder In the position for the descent, can formed by at least one hold-down device that presses on the ski boot sole from above and/or from the side.
  • the touring ski binding also includes the safety element described above, which, depending on the training, lies behind the heel end of the ski boot both when walking and when skiing downhill with an active ski brake, so that the safety element is not touched by the ski boot, or when walking up to under the heel end of the ski boot Ski boot is enough and forms a climbing aid, but is behind the heel end of the ski boot when skiing downhill with an active ski brake.
