  • Patent number: 8210561
    Abstract: Ski boots of different sizes, adapted for being used with skis provided with mounted bindings having front and rear jaws. The ski boots are embodied in at least two types (1, 1?, 1?) which differ from each other by sole length (a, b, c). Each of the ski boot types comprises at least two ski boot (outer shell) sizes having the same sole length. Each ski boot size is suitable for receiving inner boots in at least one inner boot size (foot size), and advantageously inner boots (3a to 3d, 3?a to 3?d, 3?a to 3?d) in at least two boot sizes (2a-2b, 2?a-2?-b, 2?a-2?b). Skis (6, 6?, 6?) may be provided with fixed jaws (7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, 9a, 9b) mounted in such a way that they correspond to the sole lengths (a, b, c) of the different types of boots (1, 1?, 1?).

  • Patent number: 7887081
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of ski boots of various sizes and skis with a fitted binding, comprising a toe jaw and a heel jaw, the relative separation of which may be altered and fixed relative to the ski by means of a guide device arranged on the ski. The ski boots belong to at least two ski boot types (1, 1?, 1?), which differ in the length of the sole (a, b, c), each of which are suitable for the fitting of inner boots (3a to 3d, 3?a to 3?d, 3?a to 3?d) in at least two boot sizes. The skis comprise binding jaws, arranged to be adjustable such that the relative separation thereof may be matched to the differing lengths of sole, whereby markings on the types of ski boot and markings on the guide device of the binding permit an unambiguous matching of the sole length to the corresponding jaw separation.

    Abstract: A sliding board, the outsides of which have a running surface and an upper cup, has a foam core created by foaming during its manufacture, and at least one guide element with lateral profiles for arranging and guiding of a binding element on the upper side of the sliding board. The guide element is connected to the sliding-board body by several anchoring elements. The guide element is a plastic part with formed-on anchoring elements, which plastic part is manufactured in one piece. The guide element is bound into the core by the anchoring elements during foaming of the core and is held therein by the hardened foam.

  • Publication number: 20080196275
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combination of ski boots of various sizes and skis with a fitted binding, comprising a toe jaw and a heel jaw, the relative separation of which may be altered and fixed relative to the ski by means of a guide device arranged on the ski. The ski boots belong to at least two ski boot types (1, 1?, 1?), which differ in the length of the sole (a, b, c), each of which are suitable for the fitting of inner boots (3a to 3d, 3?a to 3?d, 3?a to 3?d) in at least two boot sizes. The skis comprise binding jaws, arranged to be adjustable such that the relative separation thereof may be matched to the differing lengths of sole, whereby markings on the types of ski boot and markings on the guide device of the binding permit an unambiguous matching of the sole length to the corresponding jaw separation.

  • Ski
    Patent number: 7300069
    Abstract: A sliding board, such as a ski, with at least one interface element or guide element, connected to the sliding board via fastening elements, for arranging binding elements or the like on the upper side of the sliding board. The sliding board has a single-ply or multi-ply upper and lower skin, a running surface, and if appropriate, steel edges, and a foamed core. The interface element or guide element is arranged in a positionally fixed manner on the sliding board by at least one of the fastening elements and is allowed limited mobility in the longitudinal direction of the sliding board by at least one of the other fastening elements. The at least one fastening element fixing the interface element or guide element in a positionally fixed manner is advantageously integrated into the foam during foaming of the core and hardening of the foam.

  • Patent number: 7284767
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for a ski binding which can be positioned on a ski, the binding including two parts: a front jaw and a heel holder which can be moved in a sliding manner in the longitudinal direction of the ski in guiding mechanisms which are fixed to the ski, and are connected by a connecting element extending in the longitudinal direction of the ski. The position of one of the parts of the ski binding can be adjusted in relation to the connecting element, and the connecting element can be fixed in relation to the ski. The mutual position of the front jaw and the heel holder can be self-adjusted and fixed on the connecting element in such a way that the front jaw and the heel holder form, together with the connecting element, a pre-assembled unit which is separate from the ski, and which can be slid along the guiding mechanisms which are fixed to the ski.

  • Patent number: 7275757
    Abstract: An arrangement for longitudinal adjustment of two binding jaws of a ski binding has base parts which are guided for longitudinal displacement on guide elements attached to the ski. Strip-shaped or similar connecting elements extend parallel to one another in the direction of the other binding jaw. A fixing device interacts with the connecting elements. Raised portions of the connecting elements can be brought into and out of engagement with raised portions of the fixing device upon actuation of the fixing device by a relative movement parallel to the upper side of the ski. If the arrangement is blocked with ice or snow, functioning is ensured because the raised portions which can be brought into and out of engagement with one another are oriented essentially vertically in relation to the upper side of the ski.
