Description

Description "Dispositif d'assistance à la pratique d'Un sport de glisse" [001] La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'assistance à la pratique d'un sport de glisse. [002] Elle trouvera son application notamment pour la pratique du ski sous toutes ses variantes, avec des skis courts, paraboliques, droits, monoskis, etc. [003] On connaît du document FR-A-2.770.141 une perche pédagogique à ceinture d'assurance permettant à un moniteur de ski de tenir son élève à distance pendant ses premières évolutions de façon à régler sa vitesse et son équilibre. [004] Le dispositif suivant cet art antérieur est constitué d'une ceinture incluant un dosseret relié à une perche par une liaison souple. [005] Un tel dispositif n'est pas sans poser de problème de sécurité compte tenu qu'un élément allongé est orienté vers l'abdomen ou le dos de l'utilisateur ce qui est peut être particulièrement dangereux en cas de choc. [006] En outre, un tel dispositif n'offre pas une grande liberté de mouvement de l'élève par rapport au moniteur. [007] Il est également usuel d'entraîner un élève en lui tendant une perche tenue par le moniteur qui accompagne son élève et simultanément par l'élève, le moniteur et l'élève skiant de façon parallèle. [008] Cependant, ce type de perche est de préhension difficile avec un caractère très peu pratique de l'utilisation notamment par absence totale de liberté de mouvement résiduelle entre le moniteur et l'élève. [009] La présente invention présente un nouveau dispositif d'assistance à la pratique d'un sport de glisse permettant de résoudre tout ou partie des inconvénients des dispositifs actuels. [010] L'invention permet en particulier de conférer une liberté de mouvement relative entre l'élève et le moniteur tout en offrant à l'élève un élément d'assistance lui permettant d'avoir un support additionnel le rassurant et lui procurant un appui supplémentaire (qui favorise naturellement la sensation de glisse et la perception d'équilibre nécessaire pour avoir la bonne position sur les skis). [011] De façon avantageuse, le dispositif selon l'invention présente des possibilités de réglage de la raideur de la liberté de mouvement relative de façon à la régler notamment au fur à mesure des progrès de l'élève. [012] On peut ainsi passer d'un système très rigide avec une liberté de mouvement faible au début à un système beaucoup plus libre lorsque l'élève a pris quelque peu d'assurance. [013] D'autres buts et avantages apparaîtront au cours de la description qui suit d'un mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention qui n'a cependant pas pour but de la hmiter. [014] Le dispositif d'assistance à la pratique d'un sport de glisse, comporte un corps allongé avec une zone manipulable par un élève et une zone manipulable par un moniteur, caractérisé par le fait que les deux zones sont reliées par des moyens d'articulation conférant une liberté de mouvement relative entre l'élève et le moniteur. [015] L'invention pourra se présenter suivant les variantes introduites ci-après :Description "Device for assisting in the practice of a sliding sport" The present invention relates to a device for assisting in the practice of a sliding sport. It will find its application in particular for the practice of skiing in all its variants, with short skis, parabolic, straight, monoskis, etc. Document FR-A-2,770,141 discloses an educational pole with a safety belt enabling a ski instructor to keep his student at a distance during his first changes so as to adjust his speed and his balance.

The device for assisting in the practice of a sliding sport, comprises an elongated body with an area that can be manipulated by a student and an area that can be manipulated by an instructor, characterized in that the two zones are connected by means of articulation conferring a relative freedom of movement between the student and the instructor. The invention can be presented according to the variants introduced below:
[016] - les moyens d'articulation sont une liaison pivot d'axe transversal au sens long du corps.[016] - the articulation means are a pivot link with a transverse axis in the long direction of the body.
[017] - la liaison pivot a une amplitude angulaire limitée.- the pivot link has a limited angular amplitude.
[018] - les moyens d'articulation comprennent des moyens de freinage de sorte à ajuster la raideur de l'articulation.- The articulation means comprise braking means so as to adjust the stiffness of the articulation.

[027] - il présente des moyens de pliage en deux parties en position de non-utilisation[027] - it has means for folding into two parts in the non-use position
[028] - les moyens d'articulation sont démontables et les zones sont configurées pour être indépendamment utilisables comme des bâtons de ski.[028] - the articulation means are removable and the zones are configured to be independently usable as ski poles.
[029] L'invention sera mieux comprise au vu des planches de dessins citées en annexe dans laquelle la figure 1 présente un dispositif selon l'invention dans un mode préféré • de réalisation non limitatif et la figure 2 montre le dispositif en cours d'utilisation.The invention will be better understood in the light of the drawing boards cited in the appendix in which FIG. 1 presents a device according to the invention in a preferred embodiment • of nonlimiting embodiment and FIG. 2 shows the device in the course of use.
[030] Comme illustré en figure 1, le dispositif selon l'invention comprend un corps allongé 1, par exemple réalisé en matériau métallique, plastique ou encore en matériau composite du type fibres de carbone-matrice organique.As illustrated in FIG. 1, the device according to the invention comprises an elongated body 1, for example made of metallic, plastic material or else of composite material of the carbon fiber-organic matrix type.
[031] La longueur du corps n'est pas limitative mais on pourra considérer qu'une lo ngueur comprise entre lm50 et 2m50 pourra donner satisfaction.[031] The length of the body is not limiting, but we can consider that a length between lm50 and 2m50 can be satisfactory.
[032] Eventuellement, un réglage en longueur est possible par coulissement relatif de deux tubes que présente le corps et des moyens d'arrêt en translation de ce coulissement.[032] Optionally, a length adjustment is possible by relative sliding of two tubes that has the body and means of stop in translation of this sliding.
[033] Le corps allongé représente une zone 2 manipulable par l'élève et comprenant par exemple deux poignées 7a, 7b qui dans le cas illustré comportent une alvéole centrale pour la prise de main. [034] La zone manipulable 2 par l'élève peut également comprendre une extrémité distale évasée 5 de sorte par exemple à constituer une autre zone de préhension par l'élève. [035] Notamment, pour faire avancer l'élève sur des parcours plats, la zone évasée 5 peut servir au moniteur à tirer l'élève par l'arrière des cuisses. [036] Le corps allongé 1 comporte une autre zone, zone 3 manipulable par le moniteur.The elongated body represents a zone 2 which can be manipulated by the student and comprising by example two handles 7a, 7b which in the illustrated case include a central cell for taking hold. [034] The area which can be manipulated by the student 2 can also include a flared distal end 5 so as, for example, to constitute another area for gripping by the student. In particular, to advance the student on flat routes, the flared area 5 can be used by the instructor to pull the student by the back of the thighs. The elongated body 1 has another zone, zone 3 which can be manipulated by the monitor.
[037] La zone 3 comporte également des poignées 8a, 8b pour la prise de main par le moniteur. [038] Tel qu'illustrée, l'une des poignées 8b peut être située au niveau d'une boucle 9 permettant une préhension ferme par le moniteur à l'extrémité de l'ensemble du dispositif. [039] Entre les zones 2 et 3, des moyens d'articulation 4 sont formés.[037] Zone 3 also includes handles 8a, 8b for taking hold of the hand by the monitor. [038] As illustrated, one of the handles 8b can be located at a loop 9 allowing firm grip by the monitor at the end of the entire device. [039] Between zones 2 and 3, articulation means 4 are formed.
[040] Dans le cas illustré, l'articulation 4 est une liaison pivot réalisée par rotation relative de deux disques superposés suivant un axe transversal au sens long du corps 1, orienté sensiblement verticalement sur les dessins. Une autre liberté de mouvement peut être donnée, notamment suivant un axe incliné vertical. [041] De façon avantageuse, l'amplitude angulaire de ce pivot est limitée à moins de 360° et par exemple a une valeur comprise entre 30 et 180°. [042] En outre, l'articulation présente avantageusement des moyens de freinage permettant de freiner le mouvement relatif entre les zones 2 et 3. [043] Cette possibilité permet notamment au moniteur d'ajuster la liberté relative entre les zones 2 et 3 suivant les progrès de son élève. [044] Par exemple, le moniteur freinera fortement la rotation en début d' apprentissage pour disposer d'un dispositif très rigide. [045] Par contre, en fin d'apprentissage, l'élève pourra profiter d'une plus grande liberté de mouvement par l'intermédiaire de moyens d'articulation non freinés ou faiblement freinés. [046] Dans le cas d'une liaison pivot consistant à la rotation relative de deux disques l'un sur l'autre, le freinage peut être assuré par un système boulonné appliquant une pression plus ou moins forte sur la surface en contact des disques de façon à augmenter ou diminuer le frottement entre ces deux pièces. [047] Toujours de façon préférée, le corps allongé 1 comporte un coude 6 qui, dans le cas illustré à la figure 1, est situé dans la zone 2 manipulable par l'élève. [048] Ce coude permet de décaler légèrement la position de l'élève et du moniteur notamment pour qu'ils ne soient pas strictement dans une situation alignée face à la pente, comme cela ressort en figure 2. [049] On notera que les moyens d'articulation 4 peuvent être réalisés sous d'autres formes notamment sous forme d'une portion en matériau flexible reliée à chacune de ses extrémités aux zones 2, 3. [050] En outre, une articulation offrant plus de liberté de mouvement (2 rotations ou par exemple une rotule) peut être utilisée comme moyen d'articulation 4. [051] Comme indiqué précédemment, il est possible de régler la longueur du corps allongé 1, par exemple par coulissement relatif de deux tubes concentriques formant une portion du corps 1. [052] Suivant cette possibilité, la longueur du corps 1 peut également être modifiée de façon dynamique lors de l'apprentissage, pour permettre une certaine liberté de mouvement additionnelle à l'élève notamment pour qu'il puisse s'écarter quelque peu du moniteur. [053] Une butée de fin de course assure la limitation en translation de l'ensemble et détermine une longueur maximale du corps allongé 1. [054] Si une longueur fixe est désirée, un blocage en translation, par vis de pression ou par goupille ou tout autre moyens est utilisé. [055] L'articulation 4 ou une autre liaison peut par ailleurs offrir la possibilité de replier en deux portions de longueur équivalente le dispositif de l'invention. [056] Suivant une variante additionnelle, les zones 2 et 3 peuvent être découplées par un démontage rapide des moyens d'articulation (par exemple par dévissage d'une pièce de raccordement) de sorte à ce que chaque zone 2,3 forme un bâton de ski. Dans ce cadre, on forme des zones 2, 3 à la physionomie adaptée à l'utilisation comme bâtons de ski. [057] Le dispositif ici présenté peut ainsi être facilement réutilisé comme bâtons classiques une fois la leçon terminée. RéférencesIn the illustrated case, the articulation 4 is a pivot connection produced by relative rotation of two superposed discs along an axis transverse to the long direction of the body 1, oriented substantially vertically in the drawings. Another freedom of movement can be given, in particular along a vertical inclined axis. [041] Advantageously, the angular amplitude of this pivot is limited to less than 360 ° and for example has a value between 30 and 180 °. [042] In addition, the articulation advantageously has braking means making it possible to brake the relative movement between zones 2 and 3. [043] This possibility notably allows the monitor to adjust the relative freedom between zones 2 and 3 according to his student's progress. [044] For example, the monitor will strongly brake the rotation at the start of learning to have a very rigid device. On the other hand, at the end of learning, the student will be able to benefit from greater freedom of movement by means of unbraked or slightly braked means of articulation. [046] In the case of a pivot connection consisting of the relative rotation of two discs one on the other, braking can be ensured by a bolted system applying a more or less strong pressure on the surface in contact with the discs so as to increase or decrease the friction between these two parts. [047] Still preferably, the elongated body 1 includes a bend 6 which, in the case illustrated in FIG. 1, is located in zone 2 which can be manipulated by the student. [048] This elbow makes it possible to slightly shift the position of the student and of the instructor, in particular so that they are not strictly in an aligned position facing the slope, as shown in FIG. 2. [049] It will be noted that the articulation means 4 can be produced in other forms in particular in the form of a portion of flexible material connected at each of its ends to zones 2, 3. [050] In addition, a joint offering more freedom of movement (2 rotations or for example a ball joint) can be used as a means of articulation 4. [051] As indicated previously, it is possible to adjust the length of the elongated body 1, for example by relative sliding of two concentric tubes forming a portion of the body 1. [052] According to this possibility, the length of the body 1 can also be modified dynamically during learning, to allow a certain additional freedom of movement for the student in particular so that he can deviate somewhat from the instructor. [053] A limit stop ensures the translation limitation of the assembly and determines a maximum length of the elongated body 1. [054] If a fixed length is desired, a blockage in translation, by pressure screw or by pin or any other means is used. [055] The articulation 4 or another link can also offer the possibility of folding the device of the invention into two portions of equivalent length. [056] According to an additional variant, the zones 2 and 3 can be decoupled by rapid disassembly of the articulation means (for example by unscrewing a connecting piece) so that each zone 2,3 forms a stick ski. In this context, zones 2, 3 are formed with the physiognomy suitable for use as ski poles. [057] The device presented here can thus be easily reused as conventional sticks once the lesson is over.
