Abstract (en)

[origin: US4627636A] A monoski converter is used in combination with a standard pair of skis and ski boots and has a longitudinal stem having front and rear ends respectively formed with transversely projecting rear tabs. The tabs and stem form a pair of like parallel seats that extend longitudinally and that are dimensioned to fit over the respective skis with the rear tabs between the respective toe and heel clamps. The ski boots are fitted to the clamps of the respective skis with the respective rear tabs held tightly between the boots and the skis so that the two skis are locked together into a monoski. The converter is substantially symmetrical about a longitudinal central plane extending along the stem and is unitarily molded of a synthetic resin. The tabs have longitudinal outer edges formed with longitudinal and downwardly projecting ribs delimiting the respective seats. Furthermore, the converter is substantially thicker at the stem than at the tabs and the stem projects downward past the tabs and has longitudinal side edges confronting the respective ribs and also delimiting the respective seats.

Abstract (fr)

Cet accessoire, se présentant comme une plaque (1), permet de réunir deux skis de neige ordinaires (12) pour réaliser un genre de monoski. Il comporte, de part et d'autre d'une partie médiane (3), des parties latérales (4) et des ailes (5) venant se poser sur les skis (12), lesquels s'introduisent dans deux empreintes parallèles (10) formées sous la plaque (1). Les parties latérales (4) sont positionnées entre les organes avant (13) et arrière de fixation des chaussures sur les skis (12), de telle sorte que la solidarisation des chaussures avec les skis provoque, par effet de pression, la solidarisation des deux skis (12) au moyen de la plaque (1).
