Binding System

US Patent:
7306255, Dec 11, 2007
Filed:
Nov 12, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/271072
Inventors:
Ben Walker - Draper UT, US
Jake Hall - Draper UT, US
Brendan Perkins - Salt Lake City UT, US
Paul Terry - Park City UT, US
David Narajowski - Park City UT, US
Thomas Laakso - Park City UT, US
David Mellon - Park City UT, US
Chad John Whittaker - Springville UT, US
Assignee:
Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. - Salt Lake City UT
International Classification:
A63C 9/00
A63C 9/084
A63C 9/085
US Classification:
280614, 280616, 280617, 280618, 280623, 280626, 280631
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a ski binding that retains a boot to a ski in at least two independent operational states. One embodiment of a ski binding includes a toe receiving member and a releasable system. The toe receiving member is configured to engage the toe portion of the boot. The releasable system is configured to couple the toe receiving member to the ski in at least two independent operational states. A first state corresponds to a state in which the toe receiving member is allowed to freely rotate with respect to the ski. The first state is particularly useful in minimizing the necessary energy output for uphill travel. A second state corresponds to a state in which the toe receiving member is locked with respect to the ski. The second state is particularly useful in high performance downhill travel. The releasable system further includes an engagement mechanism and a switching mechanism.

Collapsible Shovel

US Patent:
7571945, Aug 11, 2009
Filed:
Nov 12, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/271066
Inventors:
Ben Walker - Draper UT, US
David Narajowski - Park City UT, US
Thomas Laakso - Park City UT, US
David Mellon - Park City UT, US
Chad John Whittaker - Springville UT, US
Assignee:
Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. - Salt Lake City UT
International Classification:
A01B 1/22
B25G 1/04
US Classification:
294 51, 294 545
Abstract:
A portable snow shovel that includes a unique collapsible mechanism. One embodiment of the shovel includes both an expanded and collapsed state. The shovel includes a blade member and an elongated shaft member. The elongated shaft member is slidably engaged to the blade member through a recess that extends through the blade member. The elongated shaft member is able to translate with respect to the blade member between the extended and collapsed states. The collapsed state relates to a configuration in which the elongated shaft member is extended through the recess and over the blade member a particular amount. The extended state relates to a configuration in which the elongated shaft member is extended through the recess and away from the blade member a particular amount.

Boot Articulation Support System

US Patent:
7810258, Oct 12, 2010
Filed:
May 4, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/744302
Inventors:
David Narajowski - Park City UT, US
Jacob Hall - Draper UT, US
Paul Terry - Park City UT, US
Thomas Laasko - Park City UT, US
Chad Whittaker - Salt Lake City UT, US
Jeremy Saxton - Draper UT, US
David Mellon - Park City UT, US
Assignee:
Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. - Salt Lake City UT
International Classification:
A43B 5/04
US Classification:
361172
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a support system for use in relation to an articulation region of a boot. Embodiments of the present invention relate to a boot with a dorsal metatarsal articulation region that allows for articulation in the sagittal plane such as a telemark ski boot. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a telemark ski boot, including a shell, an articulation region, and an articulation support system. The articulation support system includes at least one tensile rigid region extending transversely between the proximal and distal sides of the articulation region. The tensile rigid region impedes rotation of the rear portion of the shell about the toe portion in a frontal plane. This form of rotation is often referred to as torsional rotation. The articulation support system may include one or more of a cable, an integrated shell portion, a material mesh, and/or other tensile rigid components which maintain bending flexibility.

Modular Boot Sole System

US Patent:
8074380, Dec 13, 2011
Filed:
Nov 2, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/263479
Inventors:
David Narajowski - Park City UT, US
Jacob Hall - Draper UT, US
Chad Whittaker - Sacramento CA, US
David Mellon - Park City UT, US
Derek Gustafson - Salt Lake City UT, US
Jeremy Saxton - Draper UT, US
Mark Vincent Santurbane - San Luis Obispo CA, US
Thomas Laakso - Park City UT, US
Assignee:
Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. - Salt Lake City
International Classification:
A43B 5/04
US Classification:
361173, 36 15
Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention relates to a ski boot system with a modular binding interface. The system includes a shell encasing a user's foot and lower leg. A first and second block are interchangeably coupled to the shell below the base to effectuate alternative binding interfaces. The first and second blocks include a binding interface surface and a sole surface. The positioning and shape of the blocks with respect to the shell results in the binding interface surface extending distally from the toe region of the shell and the sole surface being the lowest surface on the boot system. The binding interface surfaces for each block are positioned at different sagittal heights with respect to the shell to facilitate the interconnection with alternative binding coupling systems. The sole surfaces for each block are positioned at substantially identical sagittal heights with respect to the shell to maintain optimum and consistent performance characteristics among different bindings.
