Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention allows a snowboard shoe having a shell and a sole plate to be attached to a snowboard in a running position by snowboard binding, in which case the snowboard shoe is attached to the sole plate in the longitudinal direction of the shoe. A combination of snowboard shoes and snowboard bindings, which has at least one front and rear holding element in the range and the snowboard binding has front and rear attachment means which fit into the respective holding elements of the snowboard shoe.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION A combination of snowboard shoes and snowboard bindings as described above is known from DE-A-3925164, in which case snowboard shoes are usually commercially available alpine ski shoes, Tour ski shoes or suitable snowboard shoes, the retaining elements of which are, as is known, formed by the extension of the sole plate beyond the front and rear ends of the shoe. The front mounting means of the known snowboard bindings are designed as hangers, which are rotatably supported on the support plate of the snowboard binding about a transverse axis and substantially from the sole plate to the shell. It fits in the front edge of the snowboard shoe in the area of the transition to. The rear mounting means of this snowboard binding also has a hanger that is supported on a support plate around a lateral axis, on which spring-loaded operating lever is pivotably supported, This operating lever has a V-shaped mounting jaw, and this mounting jaw
Elastically fits into the rear end of the snowboard shoe in the area of the transition from the sole plate to the shell.

In addition, the above snowboard bindings and snowboard shoes are commercially available,
Here, the rear mounting means are formed solely by hangers, and the front mounting means have hangers and an operating lever pivotally supported thereon. This configuration facilitates the opening and closing of the operable attachment means during mounting and dismounting of the binding.

The disadvantages of the known snowboard bindings are the extent of the width of the snowboard or greater than this width, due to the front and rear retaining elements of the snowboard shoe formed by the sole plate or the front and rear attachment means of the snowboard binding. The point is that it will reach full width. In the course of the subsequent development of snowboard sports, it turns out that there are in fact efforts to further reduce the width of the board, especially for competitive competition. The width of the snowboard shoes is predetermined, so in narrow snowboards the front or rear edge of the snowboard shoes or binding may ride on the course and therefore brake on the turn, especially during sharp turns. More and more happens.

French Patent Application Publication No. 2604913
According to the specification, a combination with a removable binding is known, in which a snowboard is provided with a central ring-shaped attachment means, which attachment means correspond to a corresponding ring-shaped opposite. It fits into the removal plate with the elements. If the predetermined force is exceeded, the removal plate is released by the attachment means. Snowboard shoes are joined to the removal plate in a variety of ways in this combination. However, since the removal plate extends substantially the entire length of the snowboard shoe, this combination does not achieve a significant reduction in overall length.

Another drawback of the known snowboard bindings is, inter alia, that the binding has to be opened and closed manually. For snowboard operators, this is troublesome, since snowboard operators must at least remove the shoes from the binding when riding the lift, for example.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is therefore to avoid the disadvantages of the known devices and to allow the installation and removal of bindings with the smallest possible overall length and without the hassle of bindings. To provide a combination of.

That is, at least one front and rear retention element of the snowboard shoe is spaced from the front and rear ends of its shell and at least one attachment of a snowboard binding operable against spring force. The means has an operating part, on which the snowboard shoe acts against the spring force when it is mounted on the binding, and in that case the mounting means moves from the open position to the holding position.

By this measure, the length of the combination of the snowboard shoes and the snowboard binding becomes short, so that it is possible to drive a turn that is strongly cut by an extremely narrow board. Advantageously, the attachment means operable in the combination according to the invention can be automatically operated by the snowboard shoe when it is attached to the binding, so that a simple and quick attachment to this binding is indeed possible.

In an advantageous configuration of the combination according to the invention, the front holding elements of the snowboard shoe are formed by lateral projections or notches in the sole plate arranged on either side of the longitudinal center plane, which lateral projections or In the running position, in the running position, the jaws of the stationary snowboard binding, which are arranged on both sides of the longitudinal center plane and which form the front attachment means, fit.

In a further advantageous configuration, the front holding element of the snowboard shoe is a notch in the sole plate arranged in the area of the longitudinal center plane, in which notch in the running position the area of the longitudinal center plane. A stationary hook, which is located at the bottom and forms the front attachment means, fits in.

In addition, the rear holding element of the snowboard shoe is formed by lateral projections or notches arranged on both sides of the longitudinal center plane, which lateral projections or notches, in the running position, in the longitudinal direction. A particularly advantageous configuration results when the spring-loaded jaws, which are arranged on both sides of the center plane and which form the rear attachment means, and which are swingable about an axis extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the shoe. To be

Another advantageous configuration of the present invention has the following features. That is, the front and rear mounting means are each formed as two jaws that are swingable against spring force.

Modification of the cost-effective construction of the snowboard shoe by the combination is possible as follows. That is, the holding element of the snowboard shoes,
It is formed integrally with the sole plate. Similarly, a cost-effective variant of the snowboard binding with the combination according to the invention is possible as follows. That is, the stationary jaws or hooks of the snowboard binding attachment means are integrally formed with the binding board.

In fact, the arrangement according to the invention in which the baseboard of the snowboard binding is rotatably and fixably mountable here about an axis which is substantially vertically aligned on the snowboard is advantageous.

In an advantageous configuration of the combined snowboard binding according to the invention, the front and rear mounting means are, at least in the holding position, of a common axis extending in the longitudinal direction of the shoe relative to the base of the snowboard binding which can be mounted on the snowboard. It can be swung around against the spring force and thus the snowboard shoe can be swung laterally with respect to the snowboard.

Other advantages and characteristics of the combination according to the invention are apparent from the subclaims which follow.

In the illustrated embodiment, the lateral projections 49a, 49b are formed as hooks that extend laterally with respect to the shoe and have one guide surface 50a, 50b inclined upwards and backwards, respectively. , Holding surfaces 51a, 5 formed corresponding to the respective jaws 5a, 5b in the traveling position
Due to the contact with 1b, the snowboard shoe 36 is supported laterally and forwardly and upwardly by the joint movement of the front holding element 47 and the attachment means 4. In another configuration not shown here, the front retaining element can likewise be realized as two notches in the sole plate which are likewise substantially correspondingly formed with respect to the front attachment means, these notches being in the jaw. It also has a similarly inclined guide surface for support.

The rear mounting means 9 according to the invention according to FIG. 4 is formed substantially by two spring-loaded side jaws 10a, 10b. Embodiments for such jaws have been described in further detail above with reference to FIGS. These jaws 10a, 10b
Fits into the rear retaining element 38, which rear retaining element
In this embodiment, the two lateral cutouts 3 of the sole plate 37
It is formed by 9a and 39b. The shapes of these cutouts are adapted to the respective jaws 10a, 10b so as to laterally support and support the snowboard 36 backwards and upwards in the holding position. However, in another embodiment not shown here, the rear holding element may also be formed in the form of lateral projections, which likewise cooperate with each other in the holding or running position, as described above.

On the chin 10b located inside the shoe,
An operating lever 44 having a handle 45 is provided which is used to open the binding by rocking the jaws 10a, 10b laterally. To attach to the binding, the snowboard operator contacts the lateral projections 49a, 49b of the snowboard shoe with the stationary front jaws 5a, 5b and attaches them to the operating portion 12 of the spring-loaded rear jaws 10a, 10b. This is easily done by applying weight and overcoming the acting spring force and pushing the operating part downwards. If the rear jaws 10a, 10b are in their closed position prior to mounting on the binding, these rear jaws are first
By the action of the sole plate 37 on the sliding surfaces 46a, 46b of the a, 10b (see FIG. 3), the sole plate 37 of the snowboard shoe 36 can slide downward in the direction of the snowboard 33 between the jaws 10a, 10b, Skipjack jaws 10a, 10b
Is forced apart laterally until it engages in the notches 39a, 39b. But the jaws 10a, 10b
If already in their open position before engaging the binding, these jaws will swing inwardly from their open position to their holding position simply by depressing the operating part 12 by the sole plate 37 of the shoe 36.

In addition, from FIGS. 4, 5 and 6, the sole plate 37 is strongly rounded upwards in the region of the front and rear ends of the shell 48, whereby an additional, for example strong cut is made. It can be seen that undesired contact between the course and the snowboard shoes 36 can be avoided, especially when maneuvering a narrow snowboard, even during a turn. Compared to the known combinations, the use of the combination according to the invention advantageously results in a reduction in the total length of the shoe and binding of approximately 4 to 8 cm or more, measured at the base of the sole plate.

The snowboard shoe 36 shown in FIG.
Has a shell 48, for example injection-molded from synthetic material, and a sleeve 52 articulated to the shell 48 in the ankle region, in which case the shell 48 and the sleeve 52 are each made of, for example, GORE-TEX material.
Two soft elastic pieces 53a, 53b, 54a, 54b are arranged, which pieces are fastened to one another by means of a lace 55. The laces 55 extend rearwardly from the front section of the shell 48 on the outside of the shoe along the shell 48 to approximately the ankle area and above the ankle area to the side of the sleeve 52 and substantially above the upper edge of the sleeve 52. The shoelace 55 is in communication with a belt 56, which runs around the sleeve along the upper edge of the sleeve 52 and is provided by a clasp, such as an adhesive clasp. It can be fixed.

The upper edge of the sleeve 52 additionally has a partial section 57 extending upwards in the region of the shin,
This subsection is used as an additional support for the forward shank. In the shoe, as is known, an inner shoe 58 is provided which likewise extends upwards in the region of the partial section 57 of the sleeve 52.

Referring now to FIGS. 7 and 8, there is shown schematically another configuration of the combination according to the invention. Binding 1 for this combination shown in FIG.

On the other hand, the front mounting means of the binding 1 is formed by a stationary hook 60 which is arranged in the region of the longitudinal center plane in the arrangement according to FIG. Along the shoe longitudinally forward and at its front end upwardly and obliquely rearwardly extending, a hook portion 61 which, in the holding position of the binding, fits into a corresponding holding element 47. This retaining element is provided with a substantially corresponding central cutout 62 of the sole plate 37 in this embodiment.
The central cutout allows the snowboard shoe to cooperate laterally, forwardly and upwardly with the hook portion 61.

The rear attachment means 9 is again formed by two lateral jaws 10a, 10b in a specific embodiment, which jaws are rocked by the central operating part 12 against the spring force from the open position to the holding position. The sole plate 37 is movable, and in its holding position, the side cutout 39
It is fitted in a and 39b. Therefore, except for its formation, the rear attachment means 9 is constructed substantially the same as that of FIGS.

To attach and detach the binding 1,
This combination is performed essentially as described in FIG.

FIG. 9 shows another construction of the snowboard binding according to the invention, in which the front mounting means 4 has a stationary side jaw 97 and the rear mounting means 9 are diagonally opposed. Placed sideways chin 98
And the front attachment means 4 additionally has a jaw 97.
Has a locking piece 99, which is arranged laterally opposite to it and can be operated substantially vertically against the spring force, which at the same time forms the operating part 12 of the binding. However, the front and rear attachment means may be interchanged with each other in this configuration. The lateral jaws 97 and 98 are formed integrally with the base plate 2 of the snowboard binding 1.
This substrate can also be attached to the snowboard via the rotating disc 3 in this embodiment as well.

The locking piece 99 vertically movably guided on the base plate 2 is substantially moved from the holding position where the head 101 of the locking piece 99 projects upward from the base plate 2 by the operating lever 100. It can be moved to an open position which extends in the same plane as the substrate 2.

The retaining elements of the snowboard shoe are, in this combination, opposite lateral cutouts of the sole plate, which cutouts are the jaws 97 and 98.
The sole plate is additionally provided with a support surface for the locking piece 99. Front and rear snowboard shoe support is provided by one rear or front edge surface 1 of each of the side jaws 97 and 98.
