Description

SKI TRAINING DEVICE
[DESCRIPTION]
The subject of the invention is a device for ski exercise, permitting learning and training of ski turns under roof, irrespective from the season and snow conditions.
Until now - despite existence of a large number of various sports equipment - there is a shortage of ski exercise devices permitting training all round the year, i.e. irrespective of the ski season and snow conditions. The above problem is solved by the ski trainer being the subject of the present invention.
The substance of the invention consists in that the ski trainer has a trapeze-shaped frame braced with longitudinal and cross connecting members and closed at the bottom by a base constituting an arc-shaped running board. Arms are situated under ski surface and connected with this frame. In their lower part they end in wheels rolling upon the running board across the ski axis. Furthermore cords are fastened in the rear part to the arms which farther - inside the frame profile - run on pulleys forming a closed circuit. Whereas in the frame sides of a square shaped cross section slides connected to the cords are situated, and mounted upon slides in the channels are sockets designed for inserting the ski stick tips there. Moreover in the arm axes - in their lower part springs are mounted - and their other ends are connected with outriggers of elongated, central frame connecting members. Skis feature the feet resting place - profiled and with quarters; and upon the running board, where wheels are moving, there are blockades restricting extreme wheel position thereby extreme ski turn. Furthermore - in order to permit device folding - levers are connected with frame sides and their other ends join the guides fixed to the longitudinal frame joining members.
So executed device allows learning and training of ski turns, parallel turns in particular, in accordance with skiing technique rules and regardless of the season.
Thanks to combined ski and sticks motions the device enforces the proper position at turns training. Whereas the way of connecting the upper ski part with the arm and the lower part through wheels - with the running board shaped in the form of an arc - permits ski turns in longitudinal axis within ski resilience what corresponds to ski edging during skiing. This motion ensures correct legwork in turns .
Arc shaped running board simulates skiing conditions across a slope with a possibility of loading the outer ski and turning according to skiing technique.
Repeated turning using the described device makes possible acquiring habits, which transferred to natural skiing conditions facilitate doing correct parallel turn and thus enable proper preparation of the exercising person to the ski season, increasing safety and reducing accident rate, also enabling achieving better results in possible ski contests .
The invention in a exemplary execution is shown on a drawing, where Fig.l - shows the top view of the device with partly shown arm and elongated connecting member, and Fig.- 2 demonstrates the view of the device frame base with the shape of the arc-shaped running board shown.
As shown on the drawing - the device constituting the invention consists of a frame 1 in a shape of the trapeze and braced with central elongated and transverse connecting members 2; at the same time this trapeze in its lower part is closed by a base constituting a running board 3. Arms 4 of skis 5, situated underneath the skis 5 are connected articulatingly with the frame 1.
Arms 4 in their lower part end in wheels 6 rolling transversely to skis 5 axis upon the running board 3 shaped in the form of an arc. Extreme positions of wheels 6 are determined by rubber stops 7. Skis 5 have profiled determined spots 8 with corners 9 for placing feet. Also in the skis 5 rear part to arms 4 cords 10 are fixed, which farther - inside frame 1 profiles run on pulleys 11 forming closed circuit. Whereas slides 12 are situated in frame 1 sides of a square cross-section and connected with the cord 10, and sockets 14, designed for inserting stick tips there, are mounted upon slides 12 in channels 13 along frame 1 sides.
In arm 4 axes being simultaneously ski 5 axes to arms 4 in their lower part springs 15 are mounted, connected with their other ends to outriggers 16 of central, elongated connecting members 2.
Furthermore with frame 1 sides levers 17 are connected, which by their other opposite ends join guides 18 fixed to elongated connecting members 2 - what permits the device folding into a small, easy to store parcel. The device operation consists in that following feet placing in determined places 8 on skis 5 and placing ski sticks in sockets 14 - the exercising person leaning in the chosen direction - with possible supporting upon sticks placed in seats 14 - causes transverse inclination of skis 5 and spring 15 tightening, which in turn facilitate return to neutral position or inclination into opposite direction. This motion is made possible by mounted in rear parts of ski 5 arms 4 wheels 6, moving upon profiled running board 3.
At the same time the transverse ski 5 inclination produces via cords 10 the opposite motion of slides 12 together with sticks inserted into sockets 14.
This is the motion consistent with the skiing technique and it is repeated in cycles throughout the exercise. Upon finishing the exercise - attempting to fold the device - the running board 3 shall be removed from the guides situated in elongated connecting embers 2 of the frame 1 and then levers 17 moved into extreme top position on guides 18.
