摘要:
A binding with a medial and/or lateral side portion attached to a binding base and that can pivot or otherwise move about an axis that is generally along a heel-to-toe direction of the binding base. The medial and/or lateral side portions can form part of the binding sidewall and permit a rider to more freely move her feet in medial and/or lateral directions. One or more foot straps may engage with the medial and/or lateral side portions to secure a foot to the binding.

Binding systems for recreational boards are provided. A binding system is mounted atop a rider-support surface of the board. The binding system comprises: a pair of rails locatable on opposing sides of a generally flattened foot-receiving surface for the rider's foot, each rail comprising a central portion mountable to the recreational board, a toe-side leg which extends from the central portion toward a toe-side of the recreational board and a heel-side leg which extends from the central portion toward a heel-side of the recreational board. Each rail comprising at least one deformation-enhancing feature for enhancing an ability of the rail to deform elastically relative to the board.

Binding systems for recreational boards are provided. A binding system is mounted atop a rider-support surface of the board. Portions of the binding system are pivotal with the rider's foot and with respect to the board. This pivotal motion may allow the rider to have greater control over the application of weight to the heel and/or toe edges of the board. In particular embodiments, the binding system comprises: a base rigidly mounted atop rider-support surface of the board; and a foot-retainer pivotally mounted to the base via pivot couplings for pivotal motion of the foot-retainer relative to the base and the board.

The invention relates to a hinged, adjustable assembly for holding a foot (33) on a sports item (40). The inventive assembly is characterised by a shell (5) which pivots around a shaft (6) which is fitted into a plate (4). According to the invention, two torsion springs (7), which are mounted to the aforementioned shaft, are blocked in rotation and used to maintain an adjustable pressure (39) between the shell (5) and the foot (33) which is introduced into the assembly at a curve (12). The upper raised end (11) of the shell (5) and the tensioning (38) of the torsion springs (7) enable said shell (5) to move upwards when the user wants to insert/extract a foot (33) into/from the assembly. The aforementioned plate (4) comprises a notched slot (19), which is housed in the notched slot (16) of a disk (3), and can be used to adjust the shell (5) in translation (35). Moreover, the other face of said disk (3) comprises a notched circular ring (13), which is housed in the notched circular ring (22) of the base, and can be used to adjust the shell (5) in rotation (36). Another disk (2) comprises a notched circular ring (23), which is housed in the notched circular ring (21) of the base, and can be used to adjust the device in rotation (34). The aforementioned adjustments enable the user to adjust the shells (5) to the feet (33) comfortably, using the associated pins.

Described herein include various embodiments of a binding assembly that assist with coupling a user's foot to a sport board. A foothold or binding upper that captures a user's foot can be coupled to a part of the binding assembly thereby enabling the binding assembly to secure the user's foot to the sport board. The binding assembly can include a chassis that has at least two connector receptacle that each allow an attachment feature (e.g., mounting screw) to extend therethrough and secure the binding assembly to the sport board. Each of the connector receptacles can be angled such that a longitudinal of the connector receptacle is positioned at an angle relative to a top surface of the sport board.

In described embodiments, a snowboard conversion kit includes a first strap assembly having a first hollow strap sleeve having a first end, a second end, distal from the first end, and a cutout between the first end and the second end. A first strap has a first strap end that extends into the first hollow strap sleeve from the first end and a second strap end that extends into the first hollow strap sleeve from the second end. The first strap and the first strap sleeve form a loop. A first strap securing assembly is adapted to extend through the first hollow strap sleeve and secure the first hollow strap sleeve to a snowboard. A second strap assembly, similar to the first strap assembly is also provided.
