Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connecting device between a ski pole and the hand of a skier.
  • ski poles are generally provided, in the area of their handle, with a strap or strap which forms a closed flexible loop.
  • This wrist strap then serves as means of connection of the skier's hand with the handle of the pole insofar as it comes to surround the top of the skier's wrist to come to be pressed in the palm of the latter when his hand comes to grip on the handle .
  • This installation of the wrist strap is not always well controlled, in particular by beginner skiers who then ignore the help that a well placed wrist strap provides for the transmission of the forces that the skier exerts at the level of the poles.
  • the role of the wrist strap is not limited to that of ensuring the transfer of efforts between the pole and the skier's arm or hand.
  • the strap must also play a captive bonding function of the ski pole for the skier.
  • it must not only remain connected to the skier's hand, but it must also return to the gripping position in the latter, in order to be able to attack the next support phase and thrust. This return to grip in the skier's hand must then be done reliably without the skier having to seek a good position of his hand on the handle of the stick.
  • the present invention proposes to improve such connection systems between the hand and the handle of the ski pole, and in particular by providing a connection device which is adaptable to all forms of gloves or the like, or to all stick shapes, without the need to be integrated into the structure of the latter, which of course reduces the cost, without adversely affecting its operating performance during skiing.
  • the objective of the invention is achieved with the device for connecting a ski pole with the hand of a skier, characterized in that it consists of a flexible link whose two ends are connected to the outer surface of a holding part, while its central part extends in the area of the arc defined between the thumb and forefinger, where it forms one of the portions of a closed loop , limited on the other hand by said thumb-index bow which forms the other portion, and in that in the position of use with a ski pole provided with a wrist strap, said closed loop surrounds, at least partially , the strands of the wrist strap near their attachment points with the ski pole.
  • Such a binding device then authorizes the use of a conventional commercial ski pole, fitted with a wrist strap and also allows the use of a normal pair of gloves on which it is possible to easily adapt said device. .
  • the connecting device according to the invention will be connected to a glove or the like constituting the holding part.
  • the strands of each of the ends of the flexible link can be connected to the holding part in a removable and / or adjustable manner.
  • connection device constitutes a simple and effective means of having a connection means between the hand of the skier and the ski pole which is perfectly adaptable to each morphology of hands, guaranteeing to the skier both good transmission of the forces exerted during skiing and the captivity of the ski pole.
  • Figures 9 and 10 illustrate a third embodiment of the device.
  • Figure 9 shows the device in the non-use position.
  • Figure 10 is a view illustrating the device in its position of use.
  • FIG. 11 illustrates another variant.
  • the connecting device of the invention according to its first embodiment shown in Figure 2 is intended to provide the connection between the hand of a skier covered with a glove or the like and the handle of a ski pole provided with 'a classic wrist strap.
  • Said connecting device essentially consists of a flexible link, such as a strap connected to each of its ends to said glove or the like, and which is intended to reinforce the connecting means constituted by the wrist strap of the ski pole thanks to an arrangement advantageous means for fixing said strap to the glove in question.
  • the ski pole although still connected to the skier's hand, is in a suspended position which is not conducive to a resumption of support and pushing forces, because the hand must seek its placement the better suited to the handle (3) of the stick, which undoubtedly causes a loss of time, or even balance of the skier in case he has not found his best placement on the ski pole.
  • the connecting device (8) illustrated in Figure 2 solves the problem of correct placement of the hand on the handle (3) of the ski pole, including during the phases of return of the arm forward that the cross-country skier practices.
  • the glove (1) according to FIG. 2 is provided on its upper surface with a flexible strap (9), the two ends (10, 11) of which are connected to said surface of the top of the glove (1) according to fixing means (12) known per se.
  • one of the ends (10) is sewn over a certain length of the strap (9) to the top surface of the glove (1), approximately in a direction parallel to the alignment of the joints of the metacarpals (13) of the hand.
  • the sewn strap part (10 ') thus extends parallel to the alignment between the second and fifth metacarpus of the hand.
  • the flexible strap (9) then extends in the area of the arc (14) defined between the thumb (4) and the index finger (5) so as to determine a closed loop (15) with said arc (14) to then join the upper surface of the top of the glove (1), on which it extends approximately along the bisector (21) of the angle formed by said thumb (4) and index (5).
  • This second end (11) of the strap (9) is then detachably fixed on the top of the glove (1) by fixing means (16, 16 ') such as snaps for example, or by means of fasteners known as "Velcro".
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the glove (1) provided with the connection device (8) in the position of use with a ski pole (2) provided with a conventional wrist strap (6).
  • the loop portion (15 ') formed by the flexible strap (9) located in the area of the arch (14) defined between the thumb (4) and the index finger (5) passes under the two strands of attachment (17, 18) of the strap (6) to the handle (3) of the ski pole (2).
  • the wrist strap (6) and more precisely the portion thereof located near its point of attachment (20) to the handle (3) of the stick is constantly maintained in the bow (14) index thumb, regardless of the propulsion or return phase of the stick.
  • the flexible loop portion (15 ') passing under the strands (17, 18) of the strap (6) at their point of attachment (20) determines a flexible hinge in said area of the arch (14 ) thumb-index which, during the return phase of the stick, as illustrated in Figure 4, authorizes the automatic repositioning of the handle (3) of the stick in the hand and in the right place, taking into account prior adjustment of the tension on one of the ends (11) of said flexible strap (9).
  • the flexible hinge thus formed makes it possible to completely free the hand and the fingers from the restraint and gripping stress of the handle (3) during the return phase of the stick.
  • This connecting device (8) then authorizes that not only the hand, but also the skier's arm can relax during this non-propulsive phase of the ski pole.
  • the connecting device according to the invention cannot be limited to the construction of FIG. 2. It is of course possible to produce other constructive arrangements which meet the characteristics of the invention by making the closed loop (15), determined in the area of the arch (14) thumb-index finger, by the arrangement of a flexible strap (9) connected to the upper outer surface of the glove (1) by fixing the two ends (10, 11) of said strap (9) on the alignment of the joints of all the metacarpals of the hand, as illustrated in FIG. 5 .
  • one of the ends (10) is sewn on the alignment (13) of the metacarpals of the four fingers of the hand, while the other end (11) detachable and adjustable is fixed on the head the metacarpal joint of the thumb (4).
  • the length of the flexible strap (9) thus used is shorter than that of the strap used in the construction of FIG. 2, which somewhat reduces the possibilities of adjustment.
  • the flexible strap (9) is no longer located on the upper part of the top (1 ') of the glove (1), but on the wall below ( 1 '') of the glove, namely that corresponding to the palm of the hand, as illustrated in FIG. 6.
  • one (11) of the ends of the strap (9) is fixed to the wall (1 '') of the palm of the glove by a seam (12).
  • the strap portion (10 '), the end (10) of which is thus connected to the internal surface (1'') of the glove (1) also extends there in alignment (13) with the metacarpal heads of the hand. to then join the thumb (4) of the glove (1) by crossing the arch (14) thumb-index finger.
  • the second end (11) is then fixed (16) detachably or not on the wall of the thumb (4) of said glove.
  • the portion of the strap forming the loop portion (15 ') located between the thumb (4) and the index finger (5) achieves the closure of the loop (15) which will serve to connect the stick further.
  • connection device is not limited to a flexible strap of which only one of the ends would be sewn to the glove and the other detachable, but it is easy for the skilled person, even the skier, to equip this glove (1) with a flexible strap (9), the two ends (10, 11) of which could be detachably adjustable, for example.
  • the flexible strap can also be made of an elastic material, which reinforces the advantage of said connecting device according to the invention in the context of security, in the case where the stick would come to be blocked or retained by an obstacle such as tree branches, stakes, etc ..., or even if a neighboring skier were to put his ski on the basket of the stick washer.
  • connection device can be provided so as to be mounted as a kit on the glove ready to receive it.
  • the glove (1) is provided with the necessary fixing means (12 ', 16') capable of receiving the flexible strap (9).
  • connection device According to the invention, the person skilled in the art can, if necessary, make any useful modification, if necessary, suitable for producing a glove or a device for adaptation can be provided with said connecting device, without departing from the scope of the invention as claimed below.
  • FIG. 7 and 8 illustrate another embodiment according to which the flexible link (9) is no longer connected by its two ends (10, 11) on the outer surface of a glove, but on a holding piece (30) intended to be threaded over the glove, see even by hand.
  • Said holding part (30) has a tubular shape which is open on the one hand towards the front (31) and towards the rear (32) to allow the passage of the gloves or the hand, while its internal wall (33) comprises a lateral hole (34) intended for the passage of the thumb as illustrated in FIG. 8.
  • said part (30) comprises a main part (35) made of flexible materials and a secondary part (36) made of elastic materials allowing on the one hand, the passage of the glove and the retention of the part (30) thereon.
  • one end (10) of the strap is sewn onto the outer surface of the holding piece, the other end (11) being removably connected to it by fixing means (16a, 16b - 16 'a, 16'b) such as pressures.
  • the devices advantageously include two pressures as according to Figure 2 to form a link portion (90) under which can be engaged and retained the strap (6).
  • the link (9) comprises an elastic portion (91).
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 illustrate a third embodiment according to which the flexible link (9) is no longer connected by its two ends (10, 11) to the outer surface of a glove, but to a holding piece ( 30 ') intended to receive the strap (6).
  • the retaining part (30 ') is produced in the form of a casing open at its two ends (40, 41) to form a conduit (42) allowing the strap to be introduced therein.
  • one of the ends (10) of the strap is sewn onto the external surface of the retaining piece, the other end (11) being detachably connected to it by fixing means (16a, 16b) such that pressure.
