Definitions

• the invention relates to an arrangement for pairwise Zussmmenbinden of the ski, wherein at least two superimposed opposite ⁇ depending an anchor plate and a cover plate having fastening devices are provided, the anchor plates are mounted on the tops of the skis.
• the rubber band When skiing, the rubber band is not protected and can easily be injured by the ski edges. It also tends to flutter, which creates unpleasant noises and is aerodynamically unfavorable.
• FIG. 1 shows a cross section through a ski with a fastening device mounted thereon
• Fig. 3 is a plan view of the top of the ski with the device according to Fig. 1 and
• Fig. 4 shows a cross section through a pair of skis tied together by means of two devices, the position of the one cover plate being indicated by dash-dotted lines before it snaps into the foreign anchor plate.
• the fastening device 2 mounted on a ski 1 has an anchor plate 3 and a cover plate 4 'which completely covers it.
• the anchor plate 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the ski 1, for example by means of a double-sided adhesive strip 5.
• the movable cover plate 4 is resilient when the skis are in operation snapped into the anchor plate 3 and held in this position by the elastic band 6 connecting the anchor plate 3 to the cover plate 4.
• the latter has recesses 9 at both ends 7, 8, in which two axes 10 made of stainless spring steel wire are inserted.
• the anchor plate 3 is provided with two upwardly projecting oblique cam pairs 11, 12, one angular cam pair 11 being designed as a bearing for the axis 10 of the one band end 7.
• the cover plate 4 is also provided with two oblique cam pairs 13, 14 projecting downwards this time equipped, the more distant inclined cam pair 14 of the anchor plate axle bearing serves as plate 4 as a bearing for the axis 10 of the other band end 8.
• the elastic band 6 is slightly stretched so that the inclined surfaces of the mutually assigned inclined cams of anchor and cover plate are pressed against one another and a force component is generated which pulls the cover plate 2 against the anchor plate.
• the former In order to disengage the cover plate 4 from the anchor plate 3, the former is moved against the band force by a small distance across the ski 1 and then lifted outwards from the anchor plate. Since the cover plate 4 is relatively wide, it can also be gripped and moved with gloves.
• the skis 1, 1 ' For the binding of the skis 1, 1 ', which are placed against one another as usual with the treads, at least two devices 2, 2' are required, which interact with one another.
• the second device 2 ' is mounted on the top of the second ski 1', opposite the first device 2.
• a pair of such devices is expediently provided in the area of the ski tips and in the area of the ski ends, so that the skis 1, 1 'can be bound together at the back and front.
• the skis are now tied together as follows:
• the cover plates 4, 4 'of the devices lying opposite one another are disengaged from their anchor plates 3, 3', guided around the skis and, with the elastic bands 6, 6 "stretched, into the foreign anchor plates 3 ', 3 engaged again like a lever, as can be seen in FIG. 4 and is explained in detail below.
• the anchor plate 3, 3 ' has a projection 15, 15' on the side further away from its band bearing point 11 and the cover plate 4, 4 'has a recess 16, 16' provided next to its band bearing point 14.
• the projections 15 ', 15 and the cutouts 16, 16' form pivot points about which the cover plates 4, 4 'can be pivoted in a lever-like manner until they snap into the foreign anchor plates.
• each deck plate has two cams 17 with inclined surfaces which snap behind the pair of cams 11 ', 11 of the corresponding foreign anchor plate 3', 3.
• the cover plate When the skis are in the driving position, the cover plate is snapped onto their anchor plate and completely covers the elastic band, so that it is protected and cannot be injured or flutter.
• the cover plate snaps onto the opposite anchor plate.
• the fastening points of the elastic band are arranged so that it is only stretched by about 200%, which ensures a long service life.
• the elastic band expediently consists of natural rubber. It is preformed and can be easily replaced by loosening the axles from the bearing points. The device can be operated very easily and without effort, even by children. Since the cover plate is relatively large, it can also be handled and moved with gloves.
• the device is low and aerodynamically designed so that it does not interfere with skiing.
• the surface of the cover plate is large enough to be used for advertising.
• an elastic band 6 can be installed in a somewhat less wide housing, as is required for narrow cross-country skis.
