Definitions
- the invention relates to a snowboard according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the attachment of the binding to the snowboard is nowadays generally carried out with four screws, which e.g. are arranged square with a distance of 40 mm, or with three screws in the form of an isosceles triangle.
- the three or four screws engage through screw holes in the bindings in threaded sleeves or inserts that are embedded in the snowboard.
- the two bindings of the known boards can be moved in the longitudinal direction of the board.
- An individual setting can also be made in this way according to the size, weight and ability of the snowboarder and the type of snow. For example, when snowboarding on the slopes, a more central position is preferred, while in deep snow skiing a position further back is preferred.
- the known bindings for pushing through the screws as screw holes have four longitudinal slots with a length of, for example, 5 mm to 15 mm, which are arranged square with a distance of 40 mm, and in the boards there are several in the longitudinal direction of the board Threaded sleeves offset by, for example, 40 mm, so that there are threaded sleeve squares offset by 40 mm, with which the four longitudinal slots mentioned can be made to coincide in the basic areas of the bindings. Similar conditions arise when fastening the binding with three screws. With the known fastenings, the bindings cannot be adjusted continuously in the longitudinal direction of the board. Furthermore, in the known bindings when the screws are tightened, the base region of the binding is pressed firmly against the board. This stiffens the board, which can negatively influence its harmonic bending curve.
- the object of the invention is to provide a snowboard in which the bindings can be adjusted continuously in the longitudinal direction of the snowboard without the bending behavior of the snowboard being adversely affected thereby.
- the binding is screwed onto an intermediate plate which is displaceably guided in the longitudinal direction of the snowboard in such a way that it is fixed perpendicular to the snowboard surface or plane.
- the position of the bindings on the snowboard in the longitudinal direction of the board can be adjusted continuously and fixed in the desired position with the fixing device.
- the intermediate plate has a plurality of guide slots, through which guide bolts protrude, which are provided with an extension projection which overlaps the guide slot for fixing in the direction perpendicular to the snowboard surface or plane.
- the intermediate plate can thus be largely freely displaced in the longitudinal direction by the guide slots relative to the guide bolts and thus the snowboard, so that the bending behavior of the snowboard is practically not impaired.
- the guide bolts are generally formed by bolts which are screwed into threaded sleeves which are embedded in the snowboard, the screw head forming the extension extension mentioned, which overlaps the guide slots.
- At least two, preferably four, guide slots are provided, one or two slots being arranged on one and the other or the other two guide slots on the other side of the longitudinal central axis of the snowboard.
- the guide slots are offset as far as possible from the edge of the snowboard. This transfers the control forces directly to the edges of the snowboard.
- the consequence of this is that the middle area of the snowboard below the area of the intermediate plate, in which the internal threads are provided for fastening the binding, can be made structurally lighter because less forces act there, in contrast to conventional snowboards with a centrally positioned threaded sleeve Fixation of the binding, in which the snowboard must be built robustly in this area, on the one hand to ensure a perfect fastening of the binding and on the other hand to be able to transfer the adhesion from the center of the snowboard to the edge area.
- the snowboard can be made lighter in construction in this central region, it is possible to provide a longitudinal recess in this region in the top of the snowboard. This creates longitudinal ribs that significantly increase the lateral rigidity of the snowboard.
- the middle area of the intermediate plate in the area of the longitudinal recess in the snowboard can have a thickening in order to reliably secure the binding to the intermediate plate guarantee. This allows the wall thicknesses and screw penetration depths required for the force absorption to be optimally combined.
- the lighter design of the middle area of the snowboard can also noticeably reduce its weight.
- the intermediate plate can be fixed in the desired sliding position in different ways. However, it should preferably be able to be carried out manually, that is to say without tools and other objects, such as coins.
- the intermediate plate can have, for example, a further longitudinal slot through which an attachment anchored in the snowboard protrudes, which has a fixing device which presses in the blocking position on the intermediate plate or against the longitudinal slot sides, while in the release position this pressure is removed and thus the guide plate opposite the approach is freely movable.
- the attachment and the fixing device can e.g. are formed by a screw which engages in a threaded sleeve firmly anchored in the snowboard and is provided with a head which, in the blocking position, is pressed against the intermediate plate on both sides of the longitudinal slot when the screw is screwed in. Since the screw should be operable manually, it can be designed as a wing screw or have another twist grip.
- the fixing device can also be formed, for example, by an eccentrically rotatably mounted on the screw bolt, which engages in the blocking position on the intermediate plate and is provided with a lever for actuation.
- Screw fixings are used today, for example, on bicycles on a large scale as quick releases.
- a guide rail can also be anchored in the snowboard to fix the intermediate plate in the desired sliding position, in which at least one sliding piece is slidably guided, to which the intermediate plate is attached and attached which the fixing device is arranged.
- the guide rail can be formed by a T-shaped hollow profile and the slide piece can have a corresponding T-shaped cross section.
- the slider with a T-shaped cross-section can be formed, for example, by a threaded sleeve with a head, a screw engaging in the threaded sleeve through a screw hole in the intermediate plate to fix the threaded sleeve in order to lock the head of the threaded sleeve against the screwed-in screw in the blocking position Press T-shaped hollow profile in the area of the crossbar of the T.
- the quick release mentioned can be screwed into this threaded sleeve as a fixing device.
- the intermediate plate can be freely displaced in the longitudinal direction of the snowboard with respect to the snowboard, so that the intermediate plate does not cause any significant stiffening and thus impairment of the bending behavior of the snowboard.
- the fixing device is preferably arranged in the inner, central region of the snowboard, that is to say on the inside of the foot on the intermediate plate.
- the fixing device is provided on the intermediate plate outside the binding, in order to be able to operate it manually when the binding is buckled on.
- the intermediate plate can also be mounted in a damping manner on the snowboard, for example by means of a layer of a rubber-elastic material, in order to absorb vibrations that occur from the snowboard and thus not to transmit them to the user's feet.
- the two bindings are mounted on the snowboard by the athlete's spread leg position at a distance of, for example, 45 cm to 55 cm. This results in an incorrect posture on the ankle of approx. 6 °.
- the binding assembly plane of the intermediate plate is inclined toward the other binding by a corresponding angle, that is to say, for example, by an angle of approximately 1 ° to 6 °. This avoids pain and possible long-term damage in the joint apparatus, in particular the conventional soft bindings can also be used according to the invention.
- the intermediate plate can have a corresponding wedge-shaped cross section, and the angle of inclination can also be variable, if necessary, for example by means of an intermediate plate with a plurality of wedge-shaped parts which can be moved relative to one another.
- the invention is explained in more detail below by way of example with reference to the drawing. In it show:
- Figure 1 is a plan view of part of a snowboard.
- Figure 2 is a section along the line II-II in Figure 1 without binding.
- Fig. 3 shows a section along the line III-III in Fig. 1 in an enlarged representation.
- a snowboard binding 1 shown in dashed lines is attached with its disk-shaped base region 2 to an intermediate plate 3, which in turn is attached to the snowboard 4.
- the angle of the binding 1 to the longitudinal central axis 5 of the snowboard 4 can be adjusted at the same time.
- the intermediate plate 3, for example made of plastic or metal, on which the binding 1 is fastened, is displaceably guided in the longitudinal direction 5 of the snowboard and can be fixed in the desired sliding position.
- the four guide slots 13 to 16 are arranged on both sides of the middle area of the intermediate plate 3, on which the disk-shaped base area 2 of the snowboard binding 1 is fastened.
- the intermediate plate 3 which is flat on the upper side, is thickened towards the snowboard 4, the thickening being arranged in a longitudinal recess 26 in the upper side of the snowboard 4 .
- a further longitudinal slot 27 is provided in the intermediate plate 3, which extends in the middle between the guide slots 13 to 16 at the foot-inner end of the intermediate plate 3 along the central longitudinal axis 5 of the snowboard or in the region thereof.
- an eccentric 29 is rotatably mounted on the screw bolt 28 about an axis 32 to which a lever 31 is fastened, the eccentric 29 in the fixing position shown in FIG. 3 by the lever 31 against the Intermediate plate 3 is pressed and thus presses the intermediate plate 3 against the snowboard 4.
- the intermediate plate 3 can be wedge-shaped in longitudinal section in order to correct the spread leg position, particularly in the case of soft boots.
