Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a snowshoe and more particularly an improvement which improves performance and comfort.
  • Snowshoes have been known for a long time many years because used for several centuries by Scandinavian populations to move on the snow. Until our days, snowshoes were used for utility or military purposes, to allow the populations and the alpine troops to move on the snow for their daily necessities. Currently, snowshoes are used more by athletes who go on hikes and walks, or even competitions. But athletes, although practicing for their pleasure, are more and more demanding for the material they use, and it is true that the products currently sold are not entirely satisfactory.
  • the snowshoe is of the type having the shape of a plate comprising a set of walls constituting the sieve, intended for lean on the snow and support the user's shoe thanks to fastening means, fastening means have an articulated plate on which means are arranged front retaining means and rear retaining means for the shoe and is characterized in that it includes damping means arranged between the screen and the articulated plate, said means being integral with the screen or the plate.
  • the means depreciation are made up of at least one element cushioning in elastically deformable material.
  • the means of rear retainers are arranged sliding longitudinally on the plate adjustable articulated, said damping element being secured to the rear retaining means so as to slide under the hinged plate.
  • the screen has an edge longitudinal provided with a horizontal central bearing surface on which bears a plate, fixing means or the user's shoe, the cushioning element being arranged on said bearing surface.
  • the snowshoe comprises means for positioning intended to allow the longitudinal positioning of the damping element placed on the screen or on a fixing the fixing means.
  • Figures 1 and 2 are views, on the one hand, of above, and on the other hand, lateral, of a snowshoe according to the invention.
  • Figure 3 is a side view, the plate being raised.
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view along AA of FIG. 1.
  • Figures 6, 7 and 8 are views of a second mode of production.
  • Figure 6 is a side view of the plate being lifted.
  • FIG. 9 illustrates a variant of the second embodiment in a view similar to Figure 8.
  • Figures 10 and 11 are two side views of a third mode of realization, the plate being raised
  • Figure 10 illustrates the retaining means for a shoe small size.
  • Figure 11 illustrates the retaining means for a shoe big size.
  • Figures 12 and 13 illustrate a fourth embodiment.
  • Figure 13 shows in side view said means when the shoe is in support.
  • Figure 14 illustrates in side view an alternative embodiment of the damping element.
  • Figure 15 illustrates in side view another alternative embodiment of the damping element.
  • Said screen (4) with its set of internal walls forms a general lower surface of support on snow allowing the user not to sink too far into the snow thanks to the bearing surface relatively large.
  • the snowshoe (1) has means cushioning intended to be placed between the sieve and the shoe user or between the screen and a fastening element (9, 10, 11) of the fixing (5).
  • the binding (5) intended to retain the shoe (6) is, according to a first embodiment, given by way of example, articulated with respect to the screen (4) of the racket itself, according to a transverse axis (XX ').
  • said attachment carrying the general reference (5) is advantageously constituted by a set of fasteners, namely, an articulated plate (9) comprising shoe retaining means, front means (10) and rear means (11).
  • a front end (12) of the shoe is, for example, retained by a front stirrup (13), while its rear end (14) is, thanks to a pivoting rear bracket (15) comprising a retaining lever (16).
  • the plate (9) is advantageously rigid and extends longitudinally, comprising a bearing surface upper (17) for supporting the sole of the shoe.
  • the racket of the invention can be equipped with any other type of device shoe attachment like, for example, that described in the French patent application No. 94 05919 of the applicant, consisting of a rubber casing to enclose the front end of the shoe and elastic return means intended to pass behind the heel thereof, so as to urge the shoe towards the envelope elastic.
  • the articulated plate (9) can pivot around the transverse axis (XX ') by relation to the sieve (4) between a support position (A) where the plate is resting against the screen and a free position (B) where the plate forms a non-zero angle with the screen (4).
  • the articulated plate (9) is positioned against the central area (20) of the sieve (4).
  • the central area (20) located under the boot (6) of the skier and therefore under the plate (9) in the case of a fixing as illustrated includes a longitudinal edge (18) which advantageously serves as a support for the plate (9) in the case of an articulated plate type fixing (9).
  • the edge longitudinal (18) includes a horizontal central bearing surface (18a) which can be extended laterally on either side by a inclined longitudinal side surface (18b, 18c), i.e., a surface tilted left (18b) and a tilted surface right (18c). Note that the two inclined surfaces (18b, 18c) converge upwards to form an angle which can be between 10 and 170 °,
  • the plate (9) is articulated around the transverse axis (XX ') so that it can pivot towards the top according to F1 by lifting the heel and pivoting downwards according to F2 by lowering the heel as shown in Figure 3.
  • the damping means (23) can advantageously be constituted by a damping element in more or less soft material made, for example, of plastic material of elastically deformable type.
  • the damping element (23) is integral with the articulated plate (9), as shown in the Figures 3, 4 and 5. It is advantageously located under the rear end (9a) of said plate.
  • the damping element (23) is arranged so fixed under the plate (9); it can be glued, welded or fixed by any other means equivalent to said plate.
  • the damping element (23) has a rectangular shape and has a width (L1) identical to the width (D1) of the plate (9), so as to avoid any shock between said plate and the central zone (20) of the screen (4).
  • the thickness of the damping element is advantageously a function of the type of elastic material to be used and the type of use (sport or walk) and the type of user to whom the snowshoe is intended. Furthermore, its length can also be chosen in based on the previous criteria.
  • the damping element (23) is integral with the central zone (20) of the screen (4) and is fixedly arranged on the central support surface horizontal (18a) of the edge (18) of the sieve.
  • Said damping element (23) is of parallelepiped shape, its width being advantageously equal to the width of the support surface (18a).
  • the fixing (5) is of the hinged plate type (9) and comprises rear retaining means (11) arranged slidingly longitudinally adjustable way.
  • Said rear retaining means may consist, for example, of an adjustable heel piece (25) or by a stirrup, the sliding of which can be obtained in a known manner per se thanks to a longitudinal light of the plate, for example, or any other equivalent system to adapt to size shoes different, small shoes as illustrated in figure 10 or large shoes as shown in Figure 11.
  • the element damping (23) is integral with the rear retaining means (11) of so that they can slide with them longitudinally under the plate. Therefore, the damping element (23) is located under the plate (9) directly above the rear retaining means (11) and therefore heel (14) of the user's shoe regardless of the size of the shoe and therefore the longitudinal position of said retaining means. Thus, the damping element (23) is located under the heel of the user at the exact place where the force is greatest when the racket is in the support position (A), as illustrated in Figures 10 and 11.
  • the damping means can be clipped onto the edge longitudinal (18) in a longitudinal position chosen by the user, It goes without saying that the positioning means could be obtained by other equivalent systems, without leaving the field of protection of the invention. Likewise, said positioning means longitudinal could be used in the embodiments previously described to allow longitudinal positioning the damping element (23) under the plate (9) or on the surface support (18a).
  • the damping element (23) can be of shape any, parallelepiped, as described above, hemispherical as shown in Figure 14 or wedge-shaped as as illustrated in figure 15 for example. It can be made up of several different cushioning materials to obtain cushioning variable.
  • the depreciation means can include several damping elements arranged opposite and having complementary forms so as to cooperate in the support position (A), or arranged in several places on the plate or sieve.
  • the damping means are mounted on the snowshoe removably thanks to assembly means removable.
  • the user can choose from several elements different depreciation available to him whose are the most suitable for the use he wants to make of snowshoeing snow.
  • the damping elements can have different shapes, be made of materials whose depreciation capacity is different. They can also own of different thicknesses or heights, so as to allow, by example, to obtain an elevated support position relative to the conventional support position without damping element.
  • the damping elements are provided with means of identification such as a color code, for example, allowing easily identify their characteristics.
  • the means of fixing the damping elements can be made by a clipping system, for example, or by a system screw mounted on the damping element cooperating with holes corresponding threads, arranged longitudinally regularly on the edge or under the plate.
