Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rear retaining device, or heel piece, for fixing a boot to a gliding device.
  • each ski is provided with a binding comprising a front stop and a heel piece.
  • This type of binding called releasable, allows, on the one hand, the maintenance of the boot integral with the gliding device during skiing and, on the other hand, the release of the boot when the user exercises, via his shoe, excessive force on an element of the binding.
  • the sole of the shoe is engaged, at the level of the front end, with a jaw of the front stop and, at the level of the rear end, with a jaw of the heel piece.
  • elements of the binding incorporate release mechanisms allowing the boot to be detached from the binding. Heels are generally designed to release the shoe when too great a vertical force is applied by the shoe on the jaw of the heel. This is called vertical release of the binding, this release causing the boot to separate from the binding.
  • the front stops are generally designed to release the boot when too great a transverse force is applied by the boot on the jaw of the stop. This is referred to as lateral release of the binding, this release also causing the boot to separate from the binding.
  • the lateral release is provided by a release mechanism housed in the heel piece.
  • These trigger mechanisms often include adjustment means making it possible to adjust the binding triggering force threshold.
  • the adjustment means integrate a visual indicator allowing the user to check which triggering force is set.
  • the heel piece comprises a frame, intended to be secured to a ski, the frame carrying a jaw, an actuating lever and a vertical trigger mechanism.
  • the vertical release mechanism interacts with the jaw so as to allow in particular the tilting of the jaw from its engaged position to its released position when the jaw is requested beyond a determined threshold force, in a release direction.
  • the trigger mechanism is housed in a rear part of the frame, behind the jaw.
  • the visual indicator of the adjustment means of this mechanism is positioned in an upper part of the mechanism so as to be visible from an upper face of the frame.
  • the actuating lever acts on the jaw in particular to make it tilt from a engaged position to a released position.
  • the actuation lever When the heel piece is in its triggered configuration, the actuation lever is positioned so as to largely cover the visual indicator, thus masking its reading. Also, to be able to see the visual indicator in In this latter configuration, an opening is made in the actuating lever in certain heel piece models. The area of this opening is large enough to completely clear the reading surface of the visual indicator.
  • this opening greatly facilitates the reading of the visual indicator.
  • a user can pass a finger through it and risk pinching it when handling the operating lever.
  • the trigger mechanism will act, with a certain energy, on the lever, via the jaw, to press it against the frame of the heel piece. Consequently, by inserting a finger through the opening during this change of configuration, it is possible that his finger gets stuck in the opening and / or between the lever and the frame, resulting in a pinch.
  • This risk is all the more marked for bindings intended for children, since they have smaller fingers.
  • this type of fixing must meet normative requirements, in particular to prevent these risks of pinching.
  • the aim of the invention is to provide a rear retaining device for a binding of a boot on an improved sliding device.
  • One aim is in particular to prevent the risk of finger pinching when manipulating the actuating lever of the jaw of a heel piece.
  • Another object is to facilitate the reading of the visual indicator of the vertical release mechanism of a heel piece through the actuating lever of its jaw.
  • Another object is to provide a reliable and economical heel piece construction.
  • the rear retaining device is characterized in that the actuating lever comprises one or more ribs each connecting two faces of the opening, the rib or ribs being dimensioned and arranged so as to divide the opening into several windows all having a maximum width of less than 0.85 centimeters.
  • the windows are dimensioned so that no finger, in particular those of children, can pass through the opening made on the operating lever. This avoids a risk of jamming at this opening of the lever.
  • the number of windows and their size make it possible not to disturb the reading of the visual indicator too much.
  • the invention also relates to a binding of a boot for a gliding device, comprising a front retaining device and a rear retaining device as described above.
  • the figure 1 is a front perspective view of a gliding device 2, in this case a ski, provided with a rear retaining device 1 with a binding according to the invention.
  • the binding ensures the attachment or separation of a boot 3 with the ski 2. It comprises, in a manner known per se, a front retaining device, called a stopper, not shown in the figures, and a rear retaining device 1, said heel piece.
  • the term “engagement” denotes the attachment of the boot to the binding and the expression “release” denotes the separation of the boot from the binding.
  • the “vertical release” corresponds to the release of the binding by a vertical force of the boot on the binding. In the example illustrated, the vertical release is achieved at the level of the heel piece by means of a release mechanism.
  • the ski 2 comprises a lower surface 21, called the sliding surface, intended to be in contact with the snow, and an upper surface 22, opposite the sliding surface.
  • the elements of the binding are assembled on the ski, on the side of its upper surface.
  • the rear retainer i.e., the heel piece, comprises a frame 11, a jaw 12, an actuation lever 13, a vertical release mechanism 14 and an interface 15.
  • the interface 15 is attached directly to the upper surface 22 of the ski.
  • the frame 11 is mounted to slide along the longitudinal axis X of the ski, thanks to a slide-type connection.
  • the jaw 12 is rotatably mounted on the frame 11 about a first axis Y12 transverse to the frame in a plane parallel to the sliding surface 21 of the ski, when the heel piece is assembled to the ski.
  • Other jaw kinematics can be considered. It can be, for example, a combination of translation and rotation.
  • the vertical release mechanism 14 is here housed in the frame 11 and interacts with part of the jaw 12 to switch it between two stable configurations: an engaged configuration for which the jaw 12 acts on the sole 31 in order to keep it engaged. with the attachment, as shown in figure 2 , and a triggered configuration for which the sole 31 is able to disengage vertically from the jaw 12 which allows the boot to be released from the binding, as illustrated in figure 1 .
  • the frame 11 is divided into two parts, an upper part carrying the jaw and a lower part assembled at the interface or directly to the ski.
  • the upper part is rotatably mounted on the lower part about a Z axis normal to the sliding surface when the heel piece is assembled to the ski.
  • the relative rotation between the two parts of the frame is controlled by a lateral release mechanism.
  • the vertical trigger mechanism 14 is a mechanism known per se. Such a mechanism is in particular described in the document EP 0 766 930 . It comprises a piston 141 interacting with an internal part of the jaw 12, a spring 142, able to exert a force on the piston to push it against the jaw, and adjustment means 143 making it possible to modify the spring tension by adjusting the spring preload.
  • the spring thus defines the vertical release value of the heel piece and therefore of the binding.
  • the adjustment means 143 comprise a screw 1431 bearing against a wall of the frame 11 and a nut 1432 cooperating, on the one hand, with the screw 1431 and, on the other hand, with one end of the spring 142.
  • part of the nut 1432 forms a slider 1422.
  • the slider 1422 is positioned under an upper wall of the frame 11, when the vertical release mechanism 14 is housed in the frame 11. Moreover, in the rear part of its upper surface 111, the frame 11 comprises a graduated surface 1441 positioned so as to cover the stroke of the cursor 1422.
  • This graduated surface 1441 comprises a central slot 1423 passing through the upper wall of the frame 11 so as to make the cursor 1422 visible from the face top 111 of the chassis.
  • the graduated surface 1441 also comprises a marking, and more particularly a graduation scale bordering the central slot 1423.
  • the cursor 1422 and the graduated surface 1441 provided with its slot 1423 form a visual indicator 144 making it possible to know the tension of the spring 142. and therefore the adjustment value of the triggering threshold of the vertical triggering mechanism.
  • the vertical trigger mechanism 14 cooperates with the jaw 12 so as to allow the tilting of the jaw 12 from its engaged position to its position. triggered when the jaw is stressed beyond a determined threshold force, in a trigger direction D, as shown in figure 4 .
  • the triggering direction is a vertical triggering direction, substantially in a vertical direction Y. It is thus a direction substantially perpendicular to the sliding surface 21 of the sliding device 2 and in a direction away from the device. of sliding.
  • the actuation lever 13 mainly allows the user to tilt the jaw backwards from its engaged configuration to its released configuration. This lever allows the boot to be released from the binding by a simple action by the skier. Thus, pressing this lever with a stick, his hand or his other shoe, the user can cause this change of configuration.
  • the actuating lever 13 is separate from the jaw 12. It interacts with the latter according to a different kinematics. According to one variant, the actuating lever can form a unitary part with the body or be a separate part, fixed directly to the body. In these two embodiments, the jaw is called a single piece.
  • the actuating lever 13 also swings into two configurations, an engaged configuration in which the lever is raised, as seen in figure 2 , and a triggered configuration in which the lever is lowered, thus covering the upper face 111 of the frame and in particular the visual indicator, as seen in figure 1 .
  • the adjustment of the vertical release force is carried out when there is no boot engaged with the binding, that is to say, when the heel piece is in its released configuration.
  • the actuating lever masks the visual indicator which prevents the control of the setting of the binding.
  • the lever comprises an opening 131 passing through the lever.
  • the opening 131 is delimited by an anterior face 1311, located on the side of the jaw, a posterior face 1312, opposite the anterior face, and two side walls, right 1314 and left 1313.
  • the opening 131 is arranged and dimensioned to so as to display the visual indicator 144 when the lever is lowered, in its tripped configuration. The visual indicator is then visible which facilitates the adjustment of the vertical release mechanism.
  • the invention aims to overcome this problem with a simple and economical embodiment.
  • the actuating lever comprises one or more ribs 132 each connecting two faces 1311, 1312, 1313, 1314 of the opening 131, the rib or ribs 132 being dimensioned and arranged so as to divide the opening 131 into several windows 133 all having a maximum width W133 of less than 0.85 centimeters. This value corresponds roughly to the average diameter of a child's finger. Accordingly, in reducing the dimensioning of these passages in this way, the risk of fingers being introduced through these windows is reduced, and therefore their jamming is avoided, without however penalizing the reading of the visual indicator 144.
  • the opening 131 is thus partially closed by one or more ribs 132. It can be a grid formed by several ribs, several ribs arranged in parallel, or even a single rib.
  • the set of windows 133 has an uncovered surface S133 greater than 70% of the reading surface S1441 of the graduated surface 1441 of the visual indicator 144. This makes it easier to read the visual indicator while hardly masking the one. -this.
  • the actuating lever 13 comprises a single rib 132 connecting the anterior face 1311 and the posterior face 1312 of the opening 131.
  • This rib 132 is centered relative to the width of the opening 131, thus creating two identical windows 133, arranged symmetrically, on either side of the central rib 132.
  • the width W132 of the single rib 132 is less than the width W1423 of the visible part of a cursor 1442 of the visual indicator 144. In the case where the cursor 1442 is visible only in the central part of the graduated surface 1441, this construction allows the direct reading of the visual indicator.
  • the visible part of the cursor 1442 of the visual indicator 144 corresponds to the width W1423 of the central slot 1423 described above.
  • the rib is less than three millimeters, which makes it possible not to interfere with the reading of the visual indicator.
  • the length of the opening 131 that is to say, the minimum distance L131 between the anterior face 1311 and the posterior face 1312 of the opening is greater than 1, 2 centimeter. This makes it possible to fully see the marking on the graduated surface 1441. This makes it easier to read for the user.
  • Other visual indicator constructions 144 may be considered.
  • the part of the visible cursor can be offset from the center of the graduated surface.
  • the invention is not limited to these embodiments. It is possible to combine these embodiments.
