Description

The The invention particularly relates to a climbing system for snowboard touring.

The two-skate lift system turns out to be a three-piece Winter sports equipment with the function of a touring ski, the sections with Hinges are connected and it serves the tour operator for locomotion in the unprepared Snow, away from paved slopes. It is also for ski touring and for easy runs as well as for usable for cross-country skiing. In this case, the on the sliding surfaces of the Ascent system attached skins removed.

Around independently Do not renounce the alpine skiing pleasure from the commercialized winter sport to have to and to combine this with endurance sports, snowboarders and touring skiers, Of course under leadership local mountain guide, on shared mountain slopes their sport away from mass tourism and away from lifts in new or deep snow out.

In order to a selected one Mountain slope can be ascended, the snowboarder must either conventional Sledge skis, short skis or on snowshoes with wide contact surfaces or on other devices with similar ones Resort to climbing properties. More options to climb the summit on your own will consist of today's View, according to the known State of the art, not.

Extremely obstructive and bad transportable are these means of ascent then, when the snowboarder has reached his destination and after strapping on his carried Snowboards before the transport question of the now superfluous and bulky items for the rise stands.

It It is therefore necessary to look for a workable solution that can be used Disadvantages eliminated and the above There are also other functional options for exercising Winter sports offers.

It is therefore an object of the invention, a rise system for snowboarders to propose, which is light and stable and in pairs here one enough ski to use size lifting surface having its handling in use and in the sense transportation after a climb through deep snow safely and easily is, and the Unterbrin supply by means of multiple reduction of the device in one Backpack should succeed, a universal use for touring skiers and downhill runners allows is and associated with relatively little effort manufacturing allowed.

According to the invention Task solved as follows, being respect to the basic inventive idea the protection claim 1 is referenced. The further embodiment of Invention results from the claims 2 to 8.

The following supplementary Hints for inventive teaching are required.

The Ascent system possesses the training of a broad touring ski, in defined intervals - transversely through the tread - two pivot points having. This makes it possible, the ski tip and the ski end independently under the tread the middle part to fold, the hinge points with fastening means, how hinges and others prevent inadvertent folding Means are provided. The fasteners are based on mechanical Art or automatically, the latter already after the unfolding of the individual faces or activated on first entry.

To The following can be done with a mechanical lock.

obvious is the lock with straps / buckles on the respective hinge or joint. The use of a barb with corresponding Pawl on each joint is also suitable, especially since these solution integrated into the system. Here is the use of for the positive connection necessary pin possible.

Something laborious is in these cases to look at the handling. There are several handles for folding necessary. Remedy the connection of the locking systems by means of a linkage / cable pull, with all the locks using an actuator at the same time can be unlocked and locked.

Around to dispense with multiple locks, the partial surfaces or the segments are connected with ropes, which are fixed / locked for locking become. When folding the ropes are released and relaxed.

The Clamping the ropes can be done in different ways. The the simplest solution is the Use of a clamping lever. Even a screw cap is conceivable by means of which the ropes are tensioned and the system is fixed becomes.

When unfolding, however, there is the danger of pinching the relaxed ropes on the articular surfaces and damaging them. This can be avoided by pre-tensioning the ropes with a spring. The use of a biased with a torsion spring screw cap can help. Nevertheless, a multiple operation is like that probably the lever as well as the rotating mechanism necessary, since the rope elongation necessary for folding must be compensated.

A automatic locking is for the realization of the ascent system because much cheaper. she is at the respective locks on the joints by a Snap closure easily realizable. Here are for the lock several handles required to lock the system until it locks into place to unfold against the resistance of the latch, once at the front and once at the back joint.

at However, a centrally-operated locking mechanism is no additional handle necessary. The unfolding is not by the lock impeded, but supported by spring tension. Will then by the user Power on the system, exercised by acting on the ski, becomes a push button under a binding plate automatically pressed and locks the system.

The treads on the ascent system are on the three sections with so-called self-adhesive Steigfellen occupied. You can be removed when used for cross-country skiing or the Ski departure is thought.

For the safe Moving on snow, harsch and ice are sharp on the tread, wear resistant and thus gripping edges on the system available. For more safety during the ascent can be attached to the ascent system crampons. For the ascent in steep terrain are so-called climbing aids for increasing the Heel attached.

To the Skiing on the snowboard is done on each ski using a binding plate attached snowboard binding on the snowboard. The skis are unlocked and stowed folded in the backpack.

Before the-, Middle and hindquarters can be connected by means of a belt, consisting of fibers, wherein this strap runs at the bottom of the ascent system.

The Invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to suitable embodiments.

at 1 is the innovative solution in a ski 1 perfectly integrated, with the simplistic In addition, the still required snowboard binding was dispensed with in practice.

When performing on the middle part with binding recording 3 becomes the central locking / unlocking mechanism 2 activated and the suspension ropes 13 , please refer 4 and 6 , clamp in the sense of the action of a hinge, each provided in a ski two hinge points. It will do so and by means of the two end faces 14 - in 4 to see - existing cones 11 and mortise holes 12.1 a puncture-proof and created for the use of suitable skis.

The rope guide 9 the suspension ropes 13 can be used as an endless loop, as in 3 shown, be installed at each hinge point, with the support cables 13 can also be performed in a parallel guide throughout the ski.

The unlocking of the tension cables 12 takes place according to 5 by means of the central locking / unlocking mechanism 2 , One with the central locking / unlocking mechanism 2 and the tension cables 12 connected and not shown, permanent bias generating coil spring holds the tension cables 12 at relief and angulation of the front and front 7 . 8th so far tense that pinching or hanging out at the joints avoided and unfolding is supported.

It is conceivable that in another embodiment according to 2 on rope guides 9 , as described above, is omitted by the front and rear joint area 5 . 6 a conventional, solid, non-flexible hinged hinge is used, with a multiple hinge 5.1 with self-locking in each pivot point secures the unfolded position of a ski.

It should be mentioned that to the ascent system in deep snow, the treads with self-adhesive climbing skins 10 are occupied. The latter can be removed manually in the case of use of the skis for downhill or cross-country skiing and without further aids.

Each ski can be equipped with crampons to improve the climbing behavior. For climbing in steep slopes is a climbing aid 15 necessary (necessary 7 and 8th ). This is like at 9 and 10 visible in the middle section 3 below the binding plate 16 arranged so that these in the unfolded state after 8th in the back, like 10 illustrated, is raised and in the folded state, 7 that allows a full tilt, 9 ,

To shut down the binding plate 16 pulled off the ascent system with the snowboard binding and fastened to the snowboard by sliding it on. Thus, only a binding system is necessary both for the ascent and for the descent.
