Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fastening unit between a ski and a ski boot, in particular designed as binding plates which form an interface between ski binding and ski or snowboard binding and snowboard, according to the preamble of the independent patent claims.
  • ski binding plate is connected to the ski. Conventionally, this is done by screw attachments or by gluing. So far, the opinion has been held that the connection between the ski boot and the ski must be as stable as possible in order to ensure the transmission of power in both directions as securely as possible.
  • EP22163673 shows a special binding assembly in the form of a binding plate, the assembly of which on the ski differs from that of the conventionally widespread variant.
  • a disadvantage of the known standard solutions is that the driving comfort and driving safety are in need of improvement or, especially in the racing sector, the optimal adjustment to the slope conditions and the driver.
  • a disadvantage of the known binding mounts is also that the skier cannot use them, especially in difficult slope conditions always has safe, predictable control over the ski or there is a high risk of injury.
  • the object of the invention is to eliminate this disadvantage.
  • the invention relates to a binding plate as a fastening unit between a ski boot or snowboard boot and a ski or snowboard, specifically between a binding (e.g. a ski binding as a system consisting of a separate toe and heel part of the ski binding).
  • a binding e.g. a ski binding as a system consisting of a separate toe and heel part of the ski binding.
  • the binding plate is explained below in an embodiment as a ski binding plate, but this does not rule out an analogous embodiment according to the invention for snowboards. (So ski can be substituted for snowboard in this text.)
  • this has at least one energy store, which is designed to store or absorb energy, which acts on the ski during travel, by means of a preferably essentially lateral or optionally also vertical movement.
  • the energy is in particular impact energy when driving over a bump.
  • the energy store can be arranged in particular in the ski binding plate.
  • the energy store can also be arranged at least partially in the ski or at the ski binding plate connection point.
  • This energy store according to the invention should not be confused with a resilient release mechanism of a safety ski binding, but is in addition to and separate from a binding release mechanism present.
  • the energy store is arranged at a different point, between (a thoroughly classic) ski binding and the ski, preferably in the ski binding plate.
  • the energy store is non-triggering when stressed and does not provide a triggering function to separate the ski boot from the ski in the event of an overload.
  • the energy store is adaptive or upstream of the ski binding.
  • This can e.g. B. not only the risk of injury from impact energy on the ski can be reduced, but also the release of the binding can be set less hard or sharp. With a less tightly pretensioned binding, a safer release can be achieved in critical situations, but at the same time the energy store prevents the binding from being released too early.
  • adjustable, configurable, etc. here preferably always refer to modifiability when the binding plate is already mounted or in the mounted state via correspondingly provided adjustment mechanisms.
  • the energy store(s) are preferably designed and arranged to temporarily store the energy on the ski and subsequently release it again and thus support the performance of the skiing.
  • the performance can be adjusted in terms of racing or comfort or a combination of racing and comfort. For example, performance is increased because the ski follows the piste better.
  • the energy store deforms briefly and returns again - the ski-binding system is more deformable. Similar to a rubber or pneumatic tire that absorbs the energy of a bump but then releases it again. If the tires were made of steel, the driver feels the bump 1 to 1. Accordingly, he can also - similar to a tire - a bellows filled with an adjustable pressure can be designed as an energy store.
  • the energy store(s) is/are preferably designed in combination to support a safety release of the ski binding or another safety solution.
  • the energy storage or energy absorber can be designed specifically with springs or bending beams or the like, with rubber-elastic elements and/or with a gas or at least partially liquid-filled bellows in the binding plates or on their attachment to the ski and/or ski binding.
  • the energy store and the release of the binding are specifically matched to one another as a function of the driver, with at least one of the energy store and the release of the binding having a corresponding adjustment mechanism, for example with an adjustable pretension. This means that the binding plate springs separately from the binding and the binding can be adjusted separately.
  • the binding plate can have integrated areas as a direct part of the binding plate, which are designed to absorb the energy, for example through targeted cutouts so that a resilient/damping elastic effect is achieved and/or adaptively, as a separate component, e.g. with rubber or others rubber-elastic elements.
  • the energy store(s) are preferably designed and arranged in such a way that the initial energy of an impact on the ski, in particular via the binding plate, is absorbed by them, with at least one energy absorber being designed as a separate part.
  • at least one energy absorber can be integrated into existing fastenings of the binding plate, preferably integrated into an existing fastening of the binding plate.
  • lateral or essentially (e.g. more than 50%) lateral movement of the ski binding or ski binding plate can take place linearly or rotationally around a longitudinal axis along the ski, preferably parallel to it, but alternatively also not parallel to it. In this way, a compact structure can be achieved in which soiling or icing of the energy storage effect can preferably also be structurally avoided.
  • the ski binding plate is preferably designed with punctiform or linear fastening devices for fastening the ski binding plate to a ski in the middle of the longitudinal direction or in the vicinity thereof.
  • This can preferably be formed jointly, but optionally also independently of the energy store. In this way, an advantageous connection of the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters for adjusting the performance.
  • One or more attachment devices to the ski are preferably designed in such a way that the angle of the binding plate to the ski can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction of the ski and/or the ski can be pretensioned with it.
  • the fastening devices can preferably be integrated in the binding plate.
  • the binding plate according to the invention can be adjusted to the driver and/or the slope conditions, in particular with an adjusting device (e.g. screw, eccentric, interchangeable intermediate layers, lever mechanisms, wedges, clamps, etc.).
  • an adjusting device e.g. screw, eccentric, interchangeable intermediate layers, lever mechanisms, wedges, clamps, etc.
  • a longitudinal inclination e.g. higher at the back of the heel
  • a longitudinal inclination e.g. higher at the back of the heel
  • a point or area can be set higher or lower in the middle of the binding plate (or at the front, or at the back or in between), whereby a pretension or a bulge in the longitudinal direction of the ski can be achieved, with which the edge engagement in curves can be adjusted.
  • an advantageous connection of the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters for setting the performance.
  • the fastening devices of the ski binding plate to the ski are preferably designed in such a way that the angle and/or the distance between the binding plate and the center of the ski can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction of the ski.
  • e.g. B. with an adjustment device for the distance between the binding plate and the center of the ski in the area of the front end of the binding plate and with an adjustment device for the distance between the binding plate and the center of the ski in the area of the front end of the binding plate.
  • a single adjustment device for the distance between the binding plate and the center of the ski can also be provided for the binding plate, specifically at the front or rear or centrally for the entire binding plate.
  • the ski binding plate itself can be designed in such a way that the angle and the distance between the binding plate and the center of the ski can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction of the ski.
  • This can e.g. B. an adjustment of the edge engagement and the balance of power at the edge in curves over the entire length of the ski or between the front and rear ski area can be adjusted.
  • an advantageous connection of the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters for setting the performance.
  • One or more of the fastening devices to the ski are preferably designed in such a way that the torsion of the ski about its longitudinal axis can be tuned in a damping and/or resilient manner.
  • This can e.g. B. an adjustment of the edge engagement and the balance of power at the edge in curves can be adjusted.
  • This can be advantageous connection the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters for setting the performance.
  • One or more of the fastening devices to the ski are preferably designed in such a way that the ski can be prestressed via them, in particular in the longitudinal direction of the ski.
  • the behavior of the ski can be adapted to the driver and/or the conditions without changing the ski, for example in order to suppress fluttering at high speeds or to facilitate adaptation to bumps.

  • the ski binding plate can preferably be designed with integrated punctiform and/or integrated linear fastening devices for the ski. With at least two, preferably three or more points, a flexible adjustability of a wide variety of driving parameters can be achieved.
  • a defined connection in the line area can be achieved with fastening devices that are linear or linear in sections, with a defined, adjustable flexibility being formed along or around this line at the same time. In this way, an advantageous connection of the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters for setting the performance.
  • One or more fastening devices are preferably designed in such a way that the angle of the binding plate to the ski can be adjusted in the transverse direction of the ski. In this way, an adjustment to the driver or an optimized application of force by the driver or a defined rest position of the ski engagement point can be set. In this way, an advantageous connection of the binding to the ski can be achieved, which offers improved driving comfort and/or additional tuning parameters to adjust the performance.
  • the fastening devices are preferably integrated in the ski binding plate. As a result, a compact structure that can be assembled easily and quickly can be provided, which preferably has few individual or loose parts.
  • the invention also relates to a movable binding plate for skis or snowboards, preferably with at least one embodiment of an energy store as described in this document, which stores and/or absorbs energy in the direction of mobility.
  • This movable ski binding is preferably adaptively movable or integrated as part of a binding plate and movably mounted or mountable on the ski. Mounted or mountable specifically via an energy store or energy absorber (as described). A simple and reliable installation of the energy absorber can thus be ensured.

  • the invention specifically relates to embodiments of fastening devices for skiing equipment—in particular for skis or snowboards for downhill skiing, obstacle courses, and jumping competitions—with energy stores, which are arranged on skis or snowboards, ski bindings or ski binding plates. These are designed to absorb impact energy on the ski and/or to influence the release of the ski binding in such a way that the risk of injuries, in particular knee injuries, is massive be reduced or the performance for the skier is positively influenced.
  • the fastening devices according to the invention offer a new type of fastening, in particular with special geometric alignments and positions and preferably adjustment options for these by means of corresponding adjustment devices even after the ski binding has been mounted on the ski, especially with adjustment devices on the binding plate.
  • safety can be massively increased if a decisive part of the energy of an impact is first absorbed or (temporarily) stored via an upstream element. This allows the safety release of the binding to be adjusted so that it is reliably released in actual dangerous situations, massively reducing knee injuries, broken bones and other risks of injury, especially from impact stress.
  • Targeted control of the properties of the energy stores, for example on the binding plates, can be used to specifically store and/or dampen or absorb impacts caused by unevenness in the ski slope.
