Description

        The present invention relates to a ski-like kite that slides on a snow surface, and more particularly to a ski-like snow surface skiing device that rides a passenger or an instructor who rides passengers or luggage at high speed.

Technical background

          Since ancient times, as a means of transport with passengers that carry passengers or luggage on the snowy field or ice, it has been known to use a plurality of animals such as dogs, reindeer, etc. Snowmobiles and snowmobiles with caterpillar have been widely used.

          On the other hand, as a means for leisure or sports to slide down or slide on the snow surface, use a ski using a pair of skis and a pair of stock, or use only one planing board and stand on it. A snowboard that slides in the desired direction only by moving the center of gravity is widely used, and even today it is improved and devised every day, and new devices or instruments are proposed every year, and its running performance and safety are further improved. .

However, the operation of skis or snowboards, etc. that use a steep snowy mountain standing on two or one board and slide down at high speed without using stock, requires extremely high technology and extremely agile reflexes, Accidents due to unbalanced posture during downhill are extremely serious, so ski or board enthusiasts who do not have such advanced skills and do not have such agile reflexes should lower the center of gravity as much as possible. In order to prevent accidents such as falls due to operational mistakes, and at the same time, to relieve the fear of high-speed downhill, we propose a seat-type ski or heel with braking means operated with hands and feet to make snow mountain leisure relatively safe Or enjoy sports.

          As described above, the best mode for carrying out the device of the present invention is as follows. First, a seat-like stool with a handle or a handle is attached to an appropriate position on a ski having a predetermined size, and the rear side thereof At the end of the ski, a binding device is installed to fix the ski boots of the instructor or the instructor. At the time of sliding, a passenger rides in the front seat and the passenger in the rear binding position. In addition, while controlling the steering wheel at the rear of the seat, it is configured so that it can be safely and freely slid at high speed by using the same control method as the ski down operation, that is, the edging action of the ski and the braking action of the two braking devices. In addition, the seat part and ski sliding part are detachably connected and fixed by a double connection of an elastic type and a link type, and this connection is released if necessary. , The seat is tilted forward and the waist is lifted, the passenger is seated on the lift seat while seated, and the passenger can sit next to it and rise up to the starting point of the snowy mountain downhill Another feature is that.

Since most of the passengers in such a skiing mode are inexperienced or incapable of skiing down, the person of this device puts safety first, yet enjoys the scenery of the snowy field and the snowy mountain and at the same time has no fear. It is necessary to give consideration to the speed and exhilaration you have never experienced before.
Therefore, it is necessary for the user of this device to have advanced snow-sliding technology and to be able to maneuver without difficulty, and at the same time, the device itself has less impact and vibration, and its structure is simple and lightweight. Regardless, there is a need for consideration that can provide a sense of security and respond to unexpected weather changes.
In the following, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

          As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the novel snow-slide device (1) of the present invention has shock absorbing bumpers (6) and (6) mainly on a pair of skis (4) and (4) having predetermined dimensions. And a pair of bindings (18) and (18) for fixing the user's ski shoes on the end of the rear ski plate. .

          Such a seemingly bowl-shaped snow surface sliding device (1), as shown in FIG. 2 in particular, puts a passenger (C) or the like who has little experience of snow surface sliding on the seat (2), A passenger (D) with ski boots fixed on the binding (18) rides on and operates a handle (17) provided at one end of the pipe-shaped seat frame (11) of the seat (2). As described above, it is configured to slide on the snow surface at a desired speed.

          Generally, the passenger (C) of this device is, as mentioned above, a ski inexperienced person, an inexperienced beginner, a young person, an elderly person, a disabled person, and possibly an injured person on the slope. ) Is preferably a senior skier who has advanced snow mountain skiing skills, a ski school instructor, a senior student, an experienced man who has operated the device for a specified period of time, etc. In some cases, it is preferable to be a hotel man or a tourist guide or instructor who has acquired a certain amount of tourist guidance knowledge and has mastered the operation technique.

In this way, the passengers of this device are usually inexperienced and incompetent of snowy mountain high-speed gliding, and usually have some degree of anxiety before gliding, so the person who controls this (D) In addition to the personality of the system, the device itself must also have a steering method and mechanical structure that are less susceptible to vibration and shock and do not cause fear.
Therefore, the structure of the seat (2) mounted on the ski (4). It is extremely lightweight and robust, while at the same time reducing impact and vibration from the snow surface running at high speed. It is preferable to consider that the center of gravity of the seat is as low as possible.

          Based on such consideration, the seat (2) is provided with a shock absorber made of a suitable elastic material, for example, a bumper (6) (6) covered with metal, on the ski (4) (4). A pipe-shaped pedestal (7) (7) of approximately the same size is mounted on the base plate with a slight shift in the longitudinal direction, and on both ends, a hooked shape is used so as to straddle between the pair of pedestals. As shown in detail below, the seat (2) is moved to the arrow (t)-by the bearings (9) and (9) at the apex of the base. A shaft (10) that pivots and swings by a predetermined angle in the (t ′) direction is supported.

On the other hand, the seat swinging shaft (10) supported by such a hanging frame portion (5) is also provided with the hanging frame (8) via a sleeve (29) or a pin (not shown). (8) A single rectangular pedestal frame (14) is integrally fixed and supported between the two sides of the rectangular pedestal frame via two pairs of links (12) (12). The structure is pivotally attached to the surface.
Further, the main body of the apparatus comprising the chair (2) and the skis (4) and (4), the hanging frame (8) and (8), the rectangular pedestal frame (14) and the like is connected to the link (12) ( Separately from the horizontal fixed connection according to 12), the elastic seat connection part (15) provided on the rectangular pedestal frame (14) is elastically double-removably connected in the vertical direction. ing.

          On the other hand, the seat (2) has a backrest, a seat seat (2 ') and an armrest on a frame (11) integrally formed with a light and strong pipe made of a suitable material such as hard aluminum, stainless steel, and duralumin. It is composed of a structure with a part mounted on it, and the waist is guarded with a strong and elastic thin steel plate (2 ") to absorb strong impacts from below. While covering with a sheet | seat, the both sides are made into the structure where the slightly thick wind-shielding part and arm part for laying and protecting both sides of a passenger were laid.

          Also, at the bottom, one end of the two pairs of links (12) and (12) is pivotally attached to both ends of the pipe-like frame under the seat front part and the seat thigh, and the other end is attached to the hook. Are fixed to both side surfaces of the rectangular pedestal frame (14) between the frame frames (8) and (8).

          Furthermore, between the steel bottom part (2 ") of the seat and the rectangular pedestal frame (14), one or two air cushions (16) are provided at the front part and the elastic part is provided at the rear part. A seat connecting portion (15) is elastically supported and integrally connected to each other, and is integrally formed with the seat swing shaft (10) on the hook-like frame (8) (8), and the axis AA. Is configured so as to be freely rotatable in the tt ′ direction (see FIGS. 1 and 4).

However, this rotational movement is merely an edging action of the skis (4) and (4), ie, a movement for changing the direction of the ski, and as shown in FIG. 3, the front link (12) is moved along the axis AA. The top is swung only by a predetermined angle, that is, an angle until it touches any one of the left and right ridge lines of the hanging frame (8), and the direction is appropriately changed to either the left or right direction.
Of course, it goes without saying that the angle of the direction change depends on the operation of the user.

In addition, another feature of the device of the present invention is that, like a normal skier, a passenger and a passenger can both ride on a lift seat of two or more passengers while the latter is sitting on the device. It is that. That is,
As shown in FIG. 3, the person (D) of the apparatus operates the handle (17) of the apparatus when the lift seat (G) approaches for the ski passenger conveyance, and links the link as will be described later. (12) (12) and air cushions (16) (16) are operated to release the engagement between the elastic seat connecting portion (15) and the seat (2) on the rectangular pedestal frame, and the handle (17) Is lifted in the upward (T) direction and simultaneously pushed down in the direction of the arrow (T1), the rear part of the seat is lifted as indicated by (2 ′), and the lift seat (G) traveling in the (t ″) direction is After submerging under the seat, operate the steering wheel again to push it down, and let the passenger (C) sitting on the seat sit on the lift seat, and at the same time, you will be on the side of the passenger. Ascend and start climbing.
At this time, the ski body, such as the ski under the seat, the hanging frame, and the rectangular pedestal frame, are suspended from the links (12) and (12) pivotally attached to the side surface of the seat (2), until the starting point of the downhill. Carried.

          Thus, when the lift end point is approached, the accompanying person first descends to the ground, and as soon as the downhill part hanging from the end of the link (12) (12) of the apparatus lands, the lift seat is removed, and the passenger's The handle portion of the seat to be seated is received, the seat is pushed down, and the elastic connecting means of the elastic seat connecting portion (15) on the rectangular pedestal frame (14) and the seat portion are integrally connected to the downhill inclined surface. The person pushes himself on the snow surface and jumps on the binding when he reaches the slope and slides down with the passenger.

The attaching / detaching operation between the seat and the square pedestal frame (14), that is, the attaching / detaching method between the seat and the ski sliding portion will be described in a little more detail as follows. That is:
The U-shaped connecting ring (28) fixed to the lower side of the lower back of the seat (2) is such that when the person (D) first pulls the handle (17) strongly toward the front, the rectangular pedestal frame link (12 ) (12) rises slightly in that direction and pushes the ring (28) downward slightly to release the engagement with the locking spring (27).
Thus, the seat (2) swings back and forth by a predetermined angle around the link (12), and the waist portion of the seat (2) floats up and down so that it can be on the lift as described above.

          On the other hand, when the seat (2) released from the elastic seat connecting portion (15) is connected again, when the seat handle (17) is pushed down, the connecting ring (28 on the seat bottom portion) is reversed. ) Slides down on the upper surface of the elastic locking spring (27) of the connecting portion (15) and, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, is elastically pushed into the latter and engaged, The seat (2) and the rectangular pedestal frame (14) are elastically connected.

On the other hand, the seat (2) is expected to have considerable impact and vibration during traveling, so all the materials of the device (1) are about the ease of shock, robustness, stability, weight reduction, etc. Various ideas have been applied.
For example, as described above, by using the shock absorbing bumper (6) and the pipe-shaped base (7) extending in the longitudinal direction of the ski, the shock is mitigated and stable by using the hanging frame (8). It is designed to reduce weight and shock by adopting a pipe-shaped seat frame (11).

          In addition, passengers on a seat that slides in the cold wind at high speed are exposed to considerable cold wind and moisture. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, most of the passengers must be covered with a heat-insulating and waterproof seat (27). There are elastic upper body side protection members, body fixing bandage members (17), leg protection footrest members (3), etc., so that they are not shaken out of the device due to vibration or impact. It is necessary to be comfortable and safe.

On the other hand, a pair of bindings (18) and (18) for fixing the ski boots of the passenger (D) are mounted on the mounting bases (19) and (19) at the end of the ski plate behind the seat portion. ing.
The bindings (18) and (18) are also of a type in which the entire shoe is elastically clamped when the shoe is pushed into the toe portion and the heel portion is depressed in the same manner as in ordinary skis. However, the support portion is pivotally supported between the mounting bases (19) and (19), and the heel portion and the toe portion are alternately raised and lowered like a seesaw according to the weight applied to the mounting base. A comb-like braking member (20) (20) is provided at the lower part of the flange portion.

          Further, at appropriate portions of these bindings (18) and (18), for example, the mounting bases (19) and (19), a perforated rubber plate-shaped snow powder scattering prevention member (pulled by the indexing tools (22) and (22)) ( 21) (21) is mounted, and care is taken to prevent the scattering of the snow dust (25) scraped by the braking members (20) and (20).

Further, a second safety braking member (23) (23) having a working pin (25) (25) connected to a pair of ropes (24) (24) is attached to the front portion of the seed binding. Yes.
This member is tied to an appropriate part of the user (D) such as a belt, and when the person leaves the apparatus, for example, when thrown out of the apparatus due to some accident, as shown in FIG. The working pin (25), wherein the rope (24) connected to (25) is pulled in the (p) direction and is fitted to the operating pin stopper (31) provided on the back of the braking claw (30). At the same time, the coil spring (35) provided on the pin acts to push the back of the braking claw (30) and push it down in the direction of the arrow, and push the claw tip (33) into the snow. The apparatus body is braked by the resistance of the snow surface applied from the direction opposite to the ski traveling direction (f).
Reference numeral (32) denotes a hinge attached to the ski (4) and the claw so that the brake claw (30) in operation does not scatter.

Such a snow-sliding device (1) of the present invention may ski for a long time on a quite high and long mountain slope at a ski resort equipped with a lift facility, and depending on the case, it may be a rope (R). Since cross country tours may be performed by indexing animals such as dogs or reindeers, snowmobiles or snowmobiles with caterpillars, consideration must be given so that the traveling position can be confirmed at all times.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, a GPS or IC tab (26) is attached to the handle or the seat armrest, and the location is constantly monitored by an appropriate place and means. It is advantageous to configure so that it can be confirmed.

In the series of gliding operations of this apparatus, the passenger (C) is first placed on the seat (2), and at least the lower body is covered with a waterproof sheet and a heat insulation sheet, and then firmly seated on the belt (17). Fixed.
Thereafter, when climbing to the top slope using a lift or the like, it is guided by the passenger (D) to the lift boarding position, and as described above, both the passengers board the lift and ascend to the top slope.

          As soon as the lift arrives at the end point and the sliding part under the seat of the device with the passenger (C) on the ground touches the ground, the passenger (D) gets off the lift and receives the handle behind the passenger's seat. This is connected to the seat connecting part (15), pushed out of the lift service area, guided to the start of the ski slope, and when it starts to slide properly, the person himself fixes his foot in the binding. Start downhill skiing.

At this time, if the speed is too high, the person (D) moves his / her body weight to the heel part and, as shown in FIG. 1, pushes down the rear comb-like braking member (20) and inserts it into the snow surface to brake. On the contrary, when the speed is increased, the center of gravity is moved to the tip of the toe, the braking member (20) is lifted above the snow surface to release the snow resistance, and the speed is gradually accelerated.
Since the snow dust (26) generated at the time of braking blocks the subsequent skier's field of view or adheres to his / her own clothes, the snow dust scattering prevention device (21) is attached to an appropriate place. Preventing inconvenience is as described above.

In addition, when it is necessary to change direction at the time of sliding, the passenger himself / herself moves his / her weight in the direction to change direction, and at the same time, the handle (17) is tilted in that direction so that the passenger (C) and the seat (2) Both are inclined in the same direction, and a so-called edging effect is generated on this side.
However, if the inclination on both sides in the traveling direction becomes excessive, the gravity of the passenger (C) may be added and the roll may be overturned. Therefore, the inclination of the seat (2) with respect to the axis (A)-(A) shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the angle is a selected angle until the front link (2) of the seat contacts and is fixed on the ridgeline of the front hook-like frame (8) as shown in (12 '), and it is excessively inclined. It is important to prevent the risk of overturning.

          In this way, the passenger (D) listens to the request of the passenger (C) and sometimes listens to tourist information on the runway, and descends at a speed that allows the passenger to feel a certain level of exhilaration. You can fully enjoy the scenery of the mountain and experience the thrill of inexperienced snowy mountain ski tours or snowy mountain sports without anxiety.

          Further, in order to prevent an unexpected accident during operation, in addition to the speed braking means of the binding portion, the second pawl brake device (30) of FIG. However, as mentioned above, it is considered that it automatically operates to maintain the safety of passengers or passengers who cannot be steered, and that a cross-country tour of a snowy field can also be enjoyed.
