Definitions

  • a heel holding device for safety ski bindings comprising stationary guide means, pivotal stepping-down means and spring-loaded pivotal heel holding-down means, said guide means having two surfaces, one being arcuate and substantially parallel the other being flat and substantially vertical with respect to the plane of the ski, said holding-down means being adapted to pivot from said arcuate guide face portion to said vertical glide face portion of the guide means upon said stepping-down means being depressed.
  • This invention relates to safety ski bindings and more particularly, to heel holding devices for the safety ski bindings.
  • a great variety of safety ski bindings are known.
  • One typical conventional safety ski binding comprises a toe holding device and a heel holding device.
  • the ski boot is resiliently and bindingly held between the toe and heel holding devices because the heel holding device urges the ski boot forwardly toward the toe holding device.
  • the conventional safety binding also includes a resilient member which is adapted to resiliently absorb a force which urges the ski boot upwardly with respect to the ski by causing the heel holding device to engage the heel of the ski boot if the force is below a predetermined level thereby to return the ski boot to its proper position on the ski, but if the upwardly urging force is over the predetermined level, the resilient member snappingly disengages the heel holding device from the from the ski boot heel.
  • the conventional safety ski binding if the ski boot is subjected to a force which displaces the ski boot laterally with respect to the ski, the toe holding device acts to return the ski boot to the initial position or to push the boot toward the heel holding device. Furthermore, the conventional safety ski binding permits the ski boot to be placed on or taken off the ski in one step motion.
  • the heel holding device urges the ski boot toward the toe holding device with a sub stantial force and the two holding device hold and squeeze the ski boot therebetween, Therefore, if the ski boot is subjected to a lateral force which displaces the ski boot with respect to the ski while skiing, since the heel holding device always urges the ski boot forwardly against the toe holding device, the return action of the toe holding device which urges the boot backwardly against the heel holding device will be diminished.
  • Another type of conventional safety ski binding comprises a toe holding device and a heel holding device including a heel holding-down member.
  • the heel holding-down member initially descends and contacts the upper edge of the heel, and then the skier moves his heel about with its upper edge in frictional contact with the holding-down member until the heel is properly positioned with respect to the heel holding device.
  • the upper edge of the ski boot heel is moved about in frictional contact with the holdingdown member. Therefore, this second-mentioned conventional safety ski binding has the additional disadvantage that since friction occurs between the holdingdown member and the upper edge of the ski boot heel each time the ski boot enters and leaves the binding, the upper edge of the heel is quickly worn out.
  • Still another type of conventional safety ski binding comprises a toe holding device and a different type of heel holding device.
  • the resiliency of a resilient member is initially received by a particular member and the thus received resiliency is then transmitted from the particular member through a link or the like member to a stepping-down member or heel holding-down member which holds the heel in position.
  • the resiliency of the resilient member is indirectly employed for holding the ski boot heel in position and therefore, loss in heel holding force occurs frequently.
  • such indirect employment of the resiliency or holding-down force inevitably requires a rather complicated mechanism.
  • the resilient member In order to compensate for the loss in the resilient holding force, the resilient member must be a heavy duty one and it is invariably heavy, large and expensive and does not work smoothly.
  • one object of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved heel holding device for safety ski bindings which can effectively eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages inherent in the conventional heel holding devices for safety ski bindings described above.
  • a ski boot is firmly held in position on the ski between a toe holding device which may be a conventional one and does not constitute any part of the invention and a novel heel holding device which is the subject of the invention as practiced conventionally.
  • the heel holding device of the invention is different from any conventional heel holding device in that the novel heel holding device is not designed to push the ski boot forwardly toward the toe holding device to hold the ski boot against the ski, but applies a substantially vertical holding-down force on the ski boot heel to hold the heel against the ski.
  • the toe holding device can readily return the boot to the proper holding position on the ski because no forwardly directing force is applied to the ski boot.
  • the heel holding-down member when the heel of a ski boot enters the heel holding device, the heel holding-down member operates in a predetermined time delay relationship with the stepping-down member which first operates when the ski boot heel enters the heel holding device; and on the other hand, when the heel is released from the heel holding device, the heel holding-down member operates first, before the stepping-down member operates.
  • the heel holding-down member engages the ski boot heel, the heel holding-down member applies a substantially vertical holding-down force on the heel so as to press the heel vertically and downwardly against the ski whereby excess wear on the heel which will otherwise inevitably occur because of frictional contact between the heel holding-down member and heel as frequently seen in any of the conventional heel holding devices for safety ski bindings can be effectively eliminated.
  • the vertically directed holding-down force of the holdingdown member can be provided directly to the holdingdown member from a vertically disposed resilient member without necessity for any intermediate force transmission means and accordingly, substantially the whole force from the resilient member can be applied to the ski boot heel substantially without any loss in force.
  • the elimination of such an intermediate force transmission means that the entire heel holding device can be made simpler in construction, smaller in size and smoother in operation as compared with the conventional heel holding devices of safety bindings.
  • another object of the present invention is to provide a heel holding device for safety ski bindings in which a ski boot is held in position on a ski with a vertically and downwardly directed force from a resilient member.
  • the heel of the ski boot is engaged by a heel holding-down member without any friction therebetween and substantially all of the holding-down force provided from the resilient member is utilized only for holding the ski boot against the ski and even if the ski boot is subjected to any stress which tends to force the boot up from the ski, the heel holding-down member effectively holds the heel in contact with the ski.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a heel holding device for safety ski bindings which holds the heel of a ski boot against a ski with the direct holding-down force from a resilient member which acts at substantially right angles with respect to the plane of the ski.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a heel holding device for safety ski bindings in which a heel holding-down member resiliently engages the heel of a ski boot without friction therebetween and bindingly holds the heel against a ski.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a heel holding device for safety ski bindings which is simple in construction and small in size.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a heel holding device for safety ski bindings which is light in weight and convenient in handling.
  • the present invention provides a heel holding device for safety ski bindings which comprises stationary guide means, stepping-down means pivoted to said guide means and spring-loaded heel holding-down means pivoted to said guide means, said guide means having two guide face portions one of which is normally substantially vertical and the other substantially parallel to the plane of a ski, said spring-loaded heel holding-down being adapted to pivot from said vertical guide face portion to said parallel guide face portion upon pressing down of said stepping-down means.

  • the adjustment of the position of the holding-down member 17 with respect to the spring case 10 can be effected by turning the screw 19 at the head thereof using any conventional screw driver as conventionally practiced.
  • the spring case 10 also has a transverse opening 22 in and adjacent to the projection 18 having the axis at right angles to the axis of the spring case 10 and a shaft 23 extends through the opening 22.
  • the opposite ends of the shaft 23 rotatably carry rollers 24 which normally ride on the substantially vertical face portion at the front edge of each of the side plates 2 when the holding device is in its ski boot heel holding position (FIGS. 2 and 4).
  • the skier first pushes down the release lever 8 at the upper end pressure receiving portion 8 by means of his pole, finger or any other suitable means (assuming that the holding device is in the position as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4) to cause the release lever to pivot at its lower cam portion in the clockwise direction as seen in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 about the transverse shaft 5 toward the position as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the cam portion 14 of the release lever pushes upwardly on the floor of spring case 10 to cause the case to pivot in the clockwise direction about the transverse shaft 5.
  • spring case 10 moves in a clockwise direction because the pivoting cam portion 14 engages the floor of spring case 10 at a point on the left-hand side of the axis of the spring case whereby the rollers 24 move from the vertical face portions 25 onto the arcuate upper face portions 26 of the side plates 2.
  • the ski-boot heel holding-down member 17 integrally connected to the case 10 and the stepping-down member 7 pivot in the clockwise direction.
  • the heel holding-down member 17 and stepping-down member 7 are pivoted further in the clockwise direction beyond the position in which these members provide a clearance just sufficient to receive the heel of a ski boot therebetween and the rollers 24 are also forced to roll backwardly along the upper faces 26 of the side plates 2 so that the holding device may not hinder placing the skis in the ski bag.
  • the stepping-down member is caused to pivot in the counterclockwise direction about the transverse shaft which in turn causes the vertical rod 9 which threadably extends through the rear straight portion 12 of the stepping-down member 7 to pivot in the counterclockwise direction about the transverse shaft 5 resulting in pivotal movement of the spring case 10 in the counterclockwise direction about the transverse shaft 5.
  • the stepping-down member pivots in the counterclockwise direction about the transverse shaft 5
  • the rollers 24 carried on the spring case 10 ride on the arcuate upper faces 26 of the side walls 2 and accordingly, in the release position of the holding device the spring case 10 is in a position higher than when the holding device is in its ski boot heel holding position (FIGS. 2 and 4).
  • the difference in position corresponds substantially to the length of one of the vertical surface portions 25 of the side plates 2 and the coiled spring 15 is compressed by a degree substantially corresponding to the distance by which the spring case 10 has moved upwardly.
  • the heel holding-down member 17 quickly descends to abut against the upper edge of the ski boot heel thereby to firmly hold the heel against the ski down.
  • the retaining force of the holding members 6 on the heel is assisted by the holding-down force of the heel holdingdown member 17. Since the ski boot heel holding mechanism mentioned above is held in its resiliently heel holding position by the vertical resilient force provided by the spring 15, even if the skiers leg is subjected to any stress which tends to displace the ski boot from the proper position while skiing, the spring absorbs such stress thereby preventing the stress from affecting the toe holding device (not shown).
  • the ski boot heel is resiliently held by the vertical force provided by the spring 15 in the illustrated preferred embodiment, if necessary or desired, the configuration of the front edge including the vertical face portion 25 of each of the side plates 2 may be varied so that the ski boot heel may be more easily pushed against the holding device.
  • the ski boot heel is resiliently and firmly held in position by only the vertical force from the spring and accordingly, even if the skiers leg is subjected to stress sufficient to displace the ski boot heel properly held in position with respect to the ski while skiing, the toe holding device (not shown) can smoothly return the heel to the proper holding position in the heel holding device because the heel holding device has no component which impedes the heel returning action of the toe holding device.
  • the heel holding mechanism is so arranged that if the ski boot heel held in the heel holding device moves vertically and upwardly by an amount over a predetermined amount, since the heel holding-down member moves upwardly beyond the vertical face portions 25 of the side plates 2, in the same manner as when the release lever is operated, the rollers 24 roll beyond the top of the vertical face portions 25 of the side plates 2 onto the upper arcuate face portions 26 of the side plates whereupon the ski boot heel is disengaged from the holding-down member.
  • the heel holding device of the invention since the ski boot heel holding device of the invention is so designed that the ski boot heel is resiliently held in position by only the direct vertically applied force of the resilient element, the heel holding device has no element which produces a forwardly directed force acting on the toe holding device whereby the elasticity of the entire safety binding of which the heel holding device of the invention and the toe holding device are constituent elements can be increased.
  • the ski boot heel can be firmly and resiliently held in position by the heel holding or guide members 6, and heel holding-down members 7 and the directly applied vertical force of the spring 15.
  • the invention provides an improved ski boot heel holding device which can effectively achieve the above-mentioned various objects of the invention.
