Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to powered devices for propelling a surface on snow, for example for carrying a skier or a snowboarder.
  • ski tows Devices for assisting skiers, also referred to as ski tows, are widely used at present for example in popular skiing resorts for moving people on snow across uphill slopes with little or no exertion of energy on the part of the skier.
  • Known ski tows usually comprise a powered device that includes a motor-driven toothed endless belt attached to a ski.
  • the toothed endless belt operates as traction means engaging with snow for carrying skiers upwardly over terrains.
  • the endless belt is power driven when going uphill and rotates in idle when going downhill.
  • Ski tows are typically mounted to a rear portion of the ski, as disclosed for example in US3964560 and US3710881.
  • the skier's weight is used for compressing and packing the snow for properly carrying skiers over slopes.
  • EP3092042 provides a power drive for skis that comprises an electric motor, a control unit, and a guide frame to be mounted on the ski that carries the endless drive belt.
  • known ski tows are undesirably complex and costly.
  • Known powered devices for propelling skiers have further disadvantages as they involve an interference and annoyance to the skier when skiing. For these reasons, known powered devices are merely used as temporary means of transport for carrying skiers upwardly over inclined terrains.
  • a powered device for propelling a surface on snow is disclosed herein.
  • the present powered device has been found to overcome the above deficiencies in known devices while providing a number of significant advantages over the prior art, as it will be described in detail below.
  • a surface to be propelled may be, for example, a ski or a snow board. Other suitable surfaces to be propelled over the snow are not ruled out within the meaning of the present disclosure.
  • a powered ski and a powered snow board that comprise the present powered device are also disclosed herein.
  • the present powered device comprises at least one small sized, compact power driven rotating mechanism.
  • the rotating mechanism may for example comprise at least one endless rubber crawler that is configured for rotating around first and second spaced apart power driven rotating members.
  • Other different power driven rotating mechanisms are not ruled out as long as they are suitable for tracking over the snow such as for example a single power driven rotating bladed or crawler wheel.
  • first power driven rotating mechanism is arranged to be fitted to an outer side of the right ski and a second power driven rotating mechanism is arranged to be fitted to an outer side of the left ski, opposite the outer side of the right ski.
  • first and second power driven rotating mechanisms are arranged to be fitted to opposite outer sides of the snowboard.
  • a power supply and a control unit are also provided for suitably powering and controlling the rotating mechanisms, respectively.
  • the power supply may comprise, for example, at least one 300 Wh lightweight battery, such as for example two. Other different types of power supply may be used for powering the rotating mechanisms.
  • the control unit may include traction control means.
  • the traction control means are configured for continuously matching a translational speed of the surface to be propelled and a rotational speed of the rotating mechanism during use. Traction control may be torque-based or speed-based as required.
  • the traction control means may operate such that when one of the rotating members is detected to rotate faster or slower than the other, for example when one of the rotating members slips or is in the air, the speed is automatically adjusted to match that of the other rotating member. This allows safety to be ensured while avoiding sliding for a safety use. Traction control is advantageous for example in skimo practice where slip often occurs that might affect a skier creating interference and interrupting required continuous dynamics.
  • the control unit may include a wireless remote control for easy remote operation of the power driven rotating mechanism.
  • the control unit may be configured, for example, for controlling throttle for the rotating mechanisms.
  • Attaching means are also provided for attachment of the rotating mechanism to an outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled such that, in use, the rotating mechanism is at least in an operating position arranged to track over the snow.
  • the attaching means may be provided such that the rotating mechanisms are positioned behind the skier’s boots.
  • Attachment of the rotating mechanism to an outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled has been found to be extremely advantageous in operation since the user is allowed to go forward uphill against gravity with no interferences.
  • the rotating mechanism is attached to an outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled, the lower surface to be propelled, such as skis or snowboard, is always in close contact with the snow.
  • the user is allowed of freely uphill skiing as if no device is fitted to the ski. This is a significant advantage in any ski disciplines such as alpine, Nordic, carving, adventure, snowboarding, etc.
  • the attaching means for attachment of the rotating mechanism to an outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled may be of the releasable type or they may be permanent.
  • the present powered device can be arranged from the operating position (to track over the snow) into a resting position (not in contact with the snow) by detaching the powered device from the surface to be propelled.
  • the resting position can be also reached by folding the rotating mechanism onto the surface to be propelled. The resting position allows the user to go free downhill skiing, for example, with no interference with the snow.
  • Detachment of the rotating mechanism is as quick and easy as putting on and taking off skis for example. After detachment, the rotating mechanism can be placed on a backpack, for example, and go downhill. Attachment of the rotating mechanism to the surface to be propelled, such as skis or snowboard, can be performed easily in seconds to get ready for use.
  • the change from the operating position of the rotating mechanism to the resting position of the rotating mechanism and vice versa may be performed automatically, either by any mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic switching mechanism or by hand.
  • the change from the operating position to the resting position and vice versa can be performed quickly and easily by the user. This allows the user to face a wide range of different routes, as well as advantageously making transitions between different routes and also skiing from downhill to flat or uphill by simply changing the rotating mechanisms from the operating position to the resting position or vice versa without having to take off the skis or the snowboard to detach the rotating mechanisms. This takes on special importance in skimo or cross-country skiing, for example. With the configuration described above, the user has almost the same ski feeling on uphill and downhill as standard ski as if no devices were fitted to the skis.
  • the above mentioned attaching means may be of the permanent type.
  • the rotating mechanisms are permanently attached to an outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled by fixing screws, for example.
  • Other suitable fixing means are not ruled out.
  • the rotating mechanism may be formed integral with the outer lateral side of the surface to be propelled.
  • the attaching means may comprise a coupling plate that is associated with the rotating mechanism.
  • Said coupling plate is arranged to be attached to a portion of the surface to be propelled, for example under a skier’s boot.
  • a tensioning strap may be provided having a first end to be attached to the coupling plate and a second end to be attached to an end portion of the surface to be propelled.
  • the tensioning strap keeps the coupling plate properly locked to the surface to be propelled during use.
  • the powered device may be provided with a suspension mechanism.
  • the suspension mechanism is intended for dampening the rotating mechanism against the snow during use.
  • the suspension mechanism may be configured as a spring mechanism comprising a compression spring, such as a coil spring, or a hydraulic damper, a torsion shaft, an articulated parallelogram, a single pivot, or any other suitable stabilization and suspension means capable of absorbing impacts of the rotating mechanisms over the snow.

  • the height-adjusting means allows an insertion depth of the rotating mechanism into the snow to be properly adjusted.
  • the rotating mechanism can be easily height-adjusted as required for controlling the extent to which the rotating mechanism is inserted into the snow for a better traction of the rotating mechanisms on different snow types.
  • the suspension mechanism may include first slope-adjusting means for adjusting a first angle of the rotating mechanism to a vertical plane such that the rotating mechanism can be pivoted from side to side with respect to the surface to be propelled.
  • first slope-adjusting means may comprise a pivot shaft about which the rotating mechanism can be rotated to the coupling plate at least in the above mentioned operating position to track over the snow, and in the above mentioned resting position, where the rotating mechanism is arranged lying on the surface to be propelled.
  • Other first slope-adjusting means than a pivot shaft may be provided such as deformable elements, a torsion shaft, carbon fiber parts, etc.
  • the suspension mechanism may include, in addition or alternatively, second slope-adjusting means for adjusting a second angle of the rotating mechanism to a horizontal plane.
  • the rotating mechanism can be thus pivoted for defining an angle to the surface to be propelled or being parallel thereto.
  • the arrangement of the rotating mechanisms can be suitably adjusted as desired such that the rotating mechanisms and thus the surface to be propelled can be operated always as required with the best traction possible on the snow and consequently with the best performance during use.
  • Positioning of the rotating mechanism with respect to a longitudinal direction of the surface to be propelled can be also adjusted, at least in the operating position and the resting position. This is carried out by adjusting position means which, in one example, may comprise a guide along which the rotating mechanism is allowed to slide with respect to a longitudinal direction of the surface to be propelled.
