Definitions
- the present invention which relates to the field of snow skiing, specifically relates to an accessory making it possible to transform in a few seconds and temporarily a pair of ordinary skis into a kind of monoski, this without mechanical intervention, and without displacement or modification of adjustment shoe fasteners on skis. Conversely, the kind of monoski thus obtained can again be transformed, just as easily and quickly, into a pair of traditional skis.
- a "monoski” is a variety of ski, unique and of large width, on which the two shoes of the skier are attached side by side.
- the invention provides an accessory which, without creating a real monoski meeting the definition given above, makes it possible to combine the two skis of an ordinary pair in a single machine, reconstituting the essential characteristics of a monoski and thus allowing a skier to move on the snow as if he were practicing monoskiing.
- the accessory according to the invention for the temporary transformation of a pair of skis into a kind of monoski, is essentially constituted by a plate which has two substantially parallel imprints for its nesting on the two skis of a pair of skis, as well as symmetrical lateral parts positioned between the front and rear members for attaching the boots to the skis, so that the attachment of the boots to the skis causes, by the pressure of the soles of the boots on the said lateral portions , the joining of the two skis by means of the plate.
- the invention thus provides an accessory which, in order to be positioned on the two skis and to be secured to the two skis, does not require any fixing member such as screw or nut, and no tool, this accessory being extremely simple since it comprises no mechanism and can be produced in one piece, for example by molding. In addition, it adapts to almost all current skis and requires neither transformation nor additional equipment.
- This accessory which unites the two skis only in their central part comprising the shoe fastening members, retains a very limited length, therefore a reduced bulk, its compactness and its lightness making it possible to transport it easily, for example in a bag.
- the two parallel footprints of the accessory designed to fit onto the two skis, extend over the entire length of the accessory, and have a width making it possible to accept all skis of usual widths, these footprints being delimited externally by edges of the lateral parts of the accessory.
- the accessory advantageously comprises an elongated middle part projecting under the accessory, and preferably profiled at its front end, to constitute a shoe which increases the bearing surface of the skis in the region of the binding members of the shoes; the sides of said middle part delimit the two indentations on the inside.
- Removable compensating shims can be placed on either side of the middle part of the accessory ; on the inner side of the two parallel tracks, to achieve lateral wedging in the event that the skis with which the accessory is used have a width leaving too much play with respect to the width of the tracks.
- compensating shims can be placed, if necessary, on the two symmetrical lateral parts of the accessory which are positioned between the front and rear members for attaching the boots to the skis.
- These shims preferably self-adhesive and made of, or covered with an anti-friction material, may be important in certain cases for the proper functioning of the shoe bindings, and for a effective locking of the accessory between the soles of the shoes on the one hand and the skis on the other.
- the front part of the accessory is profiled and raised in the manner of a ski spatula, and it comprises two lateral wings with flanges taking place in front of the members before fixing the boots on skis; the accessory thus has two windows or lateral recesses, delimited by its front wings and by its two other symmetrical lateral parts, which allow precise positioning of the accessory relative to the organs before fixing the boots, therefore relative to the skis.
- the accessory is provided with a flexible link, for example attached to its rear part, making it possible to avoid its loss by also temporarily attaching to another element, such as an organ fixing the chases, or around the skier's foot or ankle.
- This flexible link can also facilitate the transport of the accessory, when it is not used.
- the object of the invention accessory shown alone in Figures 1 to 3, is presented as a plate (1) made in one piece by molding a mechanically resistant plastic.
- the plate (1) of structure, symmetrical with respect to its longitudinal axis (2), has an elongated middle part (3).
- Two symmetrical parts (4), projecting laterally, are attached to the rear of the middle part (3).
- this middle part (3) is profiled, and extended laterally by two wings (5).
- the accessory thus has on each side, between the lateral part (4) and the wing (5), a recess (6) of generally rectangular shape, which can be extended at the front by a notch (7) hollowed out in the rear edge of the wing (5).
- the middle part (3) forms a certain projection under the accessory, relative to the side parts (4) and the wings (5).
- the longitudinal outer sides of the lateral parts (4) and of the wings (5) have flanges (respectively 8, 9), aligned and directed downwards.
- the two parallel indentations (10) allow to fit the accessory (1) on two skis (12) arranged in parallel, with a spacing corresponding substantially to the width of the middle part (3), each ski (12) being introduced into one of the imprints (10).
- the lateral parts (4) of the accessory (1) are placed on the skis (12) behind the front fixing stops (13) of the boots, between these front fixing members and the heel pieces which are not shown here.
- the wings (5) of the accessory (1) take place in front of the front fixing stops (13) of the shoes, the bases (14) of these front stops (13) engaging in the enco wings (7) of wings (5).
- elongated compensating shims (15) are applied against the sides (11) of the middle part (3), as shown in the Figure 5.
- the wedges (15), inserted between the sides (11) of the middle part (3) and the inner edges of the skis (12), are provided removable and include, for this purpose, lugs which can be introduced into holes (16) formed on the sides (11) of the middle part (3) - see also Figures 1 and 2.
- the outer edges of the skis (12) come near the edges (8, 9) of the side parts (4) and wings (5).
- the accessory (1) being fitted onto the two skis (12) as described above, its complete connection with the two skis (12) is obtained simply by performing the usual movement of putting on the skis, consisting for the skier to successively introduce his two shoes (17) into the fastening members constituted by the front stops (13) and the heel pieces (18) - Figure 6.
- the soles of the shoes (17) then come to exert, on the lateral parts (4) of the accessory (1), a strong pressure which blocks these parts (4) between the underside of the boots (17) and the upper surfaces of the skis (12), which brings together in a rigid assembly the accessory (1), the two skis (12) and two boots (17).
- the two lateral parts (4) of the accessory (1) can receive, if necessary, plates (19) constituting shims - see Figures 4 and 6.
- the combination of the two skis (12) by means of the accessory (1) produces a kind of monoski, the carrying surface of which includes not only the soles of the two skis (12), but also the underside of the middle part (3) , constituting a kind of profiled pad.
- the entire front part of the accessory (1), including the wings (5), is also profiled in the bow and raised as shown in (20), to clear the snow.
- a ring (21), formed at the rear end of the middle part (3) of the accessory, allows the attachment of a flexible link (22) such as cable or strap, ending in a loop that can be attached around the front stop (13) of one of the skis (12), in order to avoid the loss of the accessory (1) in the event of heaving - see figure 6.
- a flexible link (22) such as cable or strap
- the skier wants to switch from the "monoski” use to the usual use of skis (12), he just has to open the bindings (13,18) which frees the accessory (1).
- the link (22) can then be used to transport this accessory (1), for example by hanging it "on the shoulder” as shown in FIG. 7, which allows, for example, to conveniently borrow an installation from ski lift.
- the small size of the accessory (1) also makes it easy to transport it in a bag, for example a backpack, and also to store it easily.
