FREIN A SKI

A.FREIN A SKI COMPORTANT DEUX BRAS PIVOTANTS PRESENTANT DES PARTIES INTERMEDIAIRES COUDEES, ARTICULEES DANS DES PALIERS FIXES AUTOUR D'UN AXE TRANSVERSAL AU SKI, UNE PEDALE DE MANOEUVRE ET UN RESSORT DE RAPPEL DES BRAS DANS LEUR POSITION DE FREINAGE.B.LE FREIN COMPREND UNE LAME METALLIQUE 14 ELASTIQUEMENT FLEXIBLE, RELIANT LES EXTREMITES DE COMMANDE 6 DES BRAS DE FREINAGE 1, ET QUI EST SOUMISE A LA TRACTION DU RESSORT DE RAPPEL 9; LA LAME 14 EST SOLIDAIRE DE LA PEDALE DE MANOEUVRE 5 ET A SES EXTREMITES MONTEES ROTATIVES SUR DES BAGUES TOURILLONNANT SUR LES EXTREMITES DE COMMANDE 6.C.LORSQUE LA CHAUSSURE EST DANS LA FIXATION ET QUE LE FREIN EST EN POSITION RETRACTEE D'ATTENTE AU-DESSUS DU SKI, LA LAME ELASTIQUE A UNE CONFIGURATION PLANE ET EST DANS UN PLAN CONTENANT LA PLAQUE DU RESSORT DE RAPPEL, CE QUI EMPECHE L'APPARITION D'UNE CONTRAINTE PARASITE POUVANT GENER LE FONCTIONNEMENT DE LA FIXATION DE SECURITE. A ski brake comprising two pivotal arms having intermediate elbowed portions pivotally mounted in fixed bearings about an axis transverse to the ski, an operating pedal and a spring for restoring the pivotal arms to their braking position. A flexible and resilient metallic strip provides a connection between the control ends of the braking arms, is secured to an operating pedal actuated by the ski boot and is subjected to the action of a restoring spring and traction member. The ends of the resilient strip are fixed in cylindrical sleeves which are rotatably mounted on the control ends. When a boot is in position within the safety ski binding and the ski brake is therefore in a standby position of withdrawal above the ski, the resilient strip has a flat configuration and is located in practically the same plane as the traction member, thus preventing the appearance of a parasitic stress which would otherwise be liable to interfere with the operation of the ski binding.
