Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for electric and electropneumatic devices which is particularly applicable in the field of skiing.
  • Ski boots are currently known which are provided with electric devices, such as for example batteries adapted to allow the heating of the boot or the closure thereof by means of an electric motor reducer according to European Patent Application No 86114866.6 by the same Applicant, associated with the quarters or with the base.
  • electric devices such as for example batteries adapted to allow the heating of the boot or the closure thereof by means of an electric motor reducer according to European Patent Application No 86114866.6 by the same Applicant, associated with the quarters or with the base.
  • Other electric devices are also associable with the ski boots, such as for example a compressor.
  • the aim proposed by the present invention is therefore to eliminate the disadvantages described above in the prior art by providing an invention which allows the use of electric devices, such as batteries, compressors, motor reducers etc., without increasing the intrinsic dimensions of the boot.
  • a further important object of the present invention is to provide a device which allows rapid and easy operation and maintenance of such devices.
  • a container characterized in that it consists of a watertight box-like structure removably applicable to a ski, to a ski binding, or to a ski boot, said structure containing electric and electropneumatic devices which are electrically and pneumatically removably connectable to a ski boot, said structure being provided with one or more controls for the operation of said electric and electropneumatic devices.
  • the container 1 consists of a watertight box-like structure 2, preferably in the shape of a parallelepipon, containing electric and electropneumatic devices consisting for example of batteries 3 and of a compressor 4 including a small electric motor for operation.
  • Such batteries can be required, for example, to power a resistor or a motor reducer assigned to various adjustments of a ski boot 5, the compressor 4 allowing instead the necessary inflation of any air chambers for securing the foot inside the boot.
  • the box-like structure 2 is removably associable with a plate 6 rigidly coupled to a ski 7 in a rear region adjacent to the rear binding 8.
  • this box-like structure 2 can be provided, on its surface, with one or more magnets adapted to removably couple to said plate 6.
  • the possible solutions for allowing the temporary coupling between said structure 2 and the ski 7 may provide, for example, slideable guides or other means according to specific requirements.
  • Electric supply conductors 9 and a fluid delivery tube 10 respectively lead out from the batteries 3 and from the compressor 4, and are included, within the structure 2, in an element for connection to the boot consisting of a cable 11, preferably of vulcanized rubber, within which said tube 10 and said conductors 9 are axially incorporated or sunk.
  • Said cable thus leads out of the box-like structure 2 and is provided at its end with a plug 12 removably associable with a first socket 13 preferably protrudingly arranged at the rear region of the boot 5.
  • Said socket 13 is advantageously of the pull-out type, to allow the release of the ski if the skier falls.
  • said socket 13 can be of the locking type, so as to retain the ski in case of fall.
  • Controls for operating said batteries 3 and said compressor 4 protrude from the box-like structure 2, at the opposite surface with respect to the one intersecting with the plate 6, and consist of a pair of switches 14, the function whereof is to activate and deactivate the devices contained within the structure 2, and of a second socket 15 for recharging the batteries 3.
  • the sealing accommodation for a removable cover 16 is provided at said second socket 15.
  • the container is obvious: once the container is associated with the plate 6 of the ski 7 and the plug 12 is connected to the first socket 13, the skier, by merely acting on the switches 14, can obtain the heating of the boot and/or the optimum securing of the foot inside said boot.
  • the user can remove the container from the ski, taking it for example indoors to recharge the batteries 3.
  • This removability allows, for example, not to have to take the wet boots indoors to recharge the batteries.
  • the use of a container furthermore allows to provide a unified electric system for all sizes and different models of boot without excessive problems of bulk.
  • figures 4, 5, and 6 illustrate a first variated embodiment, wherein the container 101 again consists of a box-like structure 102 removably associable with a plate 106 rigidly associated with a ski 107, said box-like structure 102 being provided, at the surface associable with said plate, with protruding contacts 117 and with a delivery valve 118 for the compressor which are removably associable, by insertion, with complementarily shaped sockets 113 provided, for example, at the base 119 of the boot 105.
  • Such an arrangement thus allows the skier to use the devices provided inside the container only when actually needed, it being then possible to store the container on the ski without a cable being required for connection to the boot.
  • the arrangement of the container 101 on the base 119 furthermore allows a better and easier operation of the switches 114.
  • Figure 7 instead illustrates a second variated embodiment of the invention, wherein the container 101 is again provided with a watertight box-like structure 202 which is removably associable with a plate 206 which is rigidly associated with, and protrudes from, the rear binding 208 of the ski 207.
  • the devices contained inside the box-like structure may be any, according to the specific requirements, the dimensions and the materials which compose the container and the elements for connection to the boot being the most pertinent according to the specific requirements.
  • controls for the operation of said devices can consist of sensors, internal to the box-like structure, adapted to receive a signal from an infrared-ray, radio or ultrasound remote control.
