Adaptable connecting element between ski and ski binding - consists of flexible metal plate and layer between ski top surface and plate.

摘要

The layer between the ski (1) upper surface and the flexible metal plate (3) is divided lengthwise into three parts, ie. a middle part (3a) of rigid material or material of limited elasticity, and two ends of material (3b) deformable under pressure. Both ends of the plate are anchored (3c) so as to move along the ski upper surface. At least one fixture (5) firmly joins the plate to the ski. The plate ends have at least one elongated hole or open lengthwise slot in which fits a fixture screw (3d) of a covering cap (3c) or a ridge or sleeve. USE/ADVANTAGE - The connecting element between the ski and binding does not alter the ski elastic properties. It transfers the transverse load directly through the shoe to the ski, and elastically dampens stresses on the plate in the ski lengthwise direction, without warping.
