Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention is a cover element for a ski binding having two ski binding parts, a toe piece and a heel piece, both ski binding parts being a binding band extending from the upper surface of the ski. Are connected to each other by means of which the cover element extends over the longitudinal section of the coupling band and has a substantially U-shaped cross section, which can be shortened only for a given longitudinal section. Regarding things.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Cover elements of this type are known from commercial ski bindings (ESS VAR, ATOMIC VAR) and are disclosed, for example, in the technical handbook "ATOMIC, ESS 1989/1990 edition". Such known cover elements have a substantially U-shaped cross section. In this case, both U-shaped legs are formed into a double wall for reinforcement and are supported on the upper surface of the ski. However, if this "U" is to be formed relatively high for functional reasons, the problem of instability arises. It is theoretically conceivable to use a more stable box-shaped cross-section instead of the U-shaped cross-section, but this requires significantly more complicated manufacturing due to molding technology. In the case of box-shaped profiles, a double-walled side wall with a functional undercut is totally unachievable with molding technology.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The object of the present invention is to improve the cover element of the type mentioned at the beginning to provide a cover element which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and which is sufficiently stable even at high heights. Is.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve this problem, in the structure of the present invention, the cover element is made of a U-shaped member so that by assembling each insert body, a cross-section box forming section of the assembly type is formed in each section in the cover element. In the area of the free leg ends of the glyph, it was at least partially reinforced by the insert.

[0005]

[Effect of device]

 According to the invention, the lower side of the cover element is at least partially reinforced by the insert, so that the cover element obtains a box-shaped cross-section strength. However, the ease of manufacturing the U-shaped cross section continues to be obtained.

Claim 2 describes a particularly easy-to-manufacture and effective insert configuration for placement on the cover element. According to the configuration of claim 3, there are provided reinforcing ribs arranged parallel to both side surfaces for accommodating the connecting section of the insert which connects both flanges. It is advantageous to have a square cutout. According to the characterizing feature of claim 4, the individual notches are confined also in the lateral direction of the cover element by the lateral walls, i.e. the front lateral wall and the rear lateral wall, In some cases it is limited by the slope category. This increases the individual cutout limit. According to claim 5, the inserts can be individually shaped.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, it can be seen that the ski 1 is provided with a ski binding. This ski binding consists of a toe piece 2 and a heel piece 3. The heel piece 3 is held by the ski 1 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction in a limited manner. A longitudinally stable coupling band 4 extends between the toe piece 2 and the heel piece 3. Further, a ski brake 5 is attached to the ski 1. The front longitudinal section of the connecting band 4 is supported by the toe plate 6 of the tow piece 2, and the rear longitudinal section of the connecting band 4 is supported by the cover 7. An elongated cover element 8 is arranged between the toe plate 6 and the cover 7.

As can be seen in FIG. 3, the cover element 8 has a substantially U-shaped cross section with an upper surface 9 and side surfaces 10. Both sides of these form two U-shaped legs. As can be seen from FIG. 4, only one or more longitudinal sections 11 can be shortened if required. The individual longitudinal sections 11 are separated by transversely extending cuts 12. Reinforcing ribs 13 are arranged substantially parallel to both side faces 10. The ends of these reinforcing ribs 13 facing the toe piece 2 are respectively connected to the side faces 10 by lateral walls 14. The ends of the reinforcing ribs 13 facing the heel piece 3 are connected to the side faces 10 by inclined sections 15 and further transverse walls 16, respectively. Reinforcing ribs 13, lateral walls 14 and 16, inclined section 15 and side faces 10 respectively surround a notch 17. The flange 19 of the insert 18 can be inserted into this notch. In this embodiment, these inserts 18 are I-shaped when viewed from above. The individual flanges 19 of each I-shaped insert are respectively supported on the inner side by the side faces 10 and the reinforcing ribs 13.

Further, each of the reinforcing ribs 13 has a substantially rectangular notch 17a extending from the lower edge of the reinforcing rib as a starting point. This notch 17a has been converted into the notch 17 and is provided for accommodating a connecting section 20 for connecting the two flanges 19 of the individual inserts 18 to each other (see in particular FIGS. 4 and 5). Both flanges 19 of the insert 18 are inserted into the two notches 17 that are located opposite each other. In particular, as can be seen from FIG. 3, in the cover element 8 a kind of cross-section box forming section is thus formed for each section.

The shape of insert 18 is in no way constrained to I-shaped profiles. C-shaped profiles, X-shaped profiles, H-shaped profiles or the like may be used, or in some cases combinations thereof.
