Description

The invention relates to a ski winter sports device, in particular a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three skis.

From US 2017/0057534 A1 a “ski bike with multiple steering components” is known, which has three skis arranged similar to a tricycle.

With this “ski bike”, a user stands on a standing means, which has two skis arranged side by side to provide one ski for each foot of a user. A holding means for holding on by hand offers the user the possibility to hold on. As a result, a user stands on the “ski-bike” similar to a bicycle, wherein the pedals and the front wheel are replaced by skis, and wherein the rear wheel is omitted.

With this “ski bike”, however, it is awkward to ride in a cable car gondola, as it requires a considerable amount of space and a large volume of space that is necessary for transportation, respectively.

This means, for example, that instead of eight skiers with skis, only two or three “ski bikers” with their “ski bikes” can use a single gondola. This is a problem especially in ski resorts with high occupancy rates, as fewer people can be transported.

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three skis, which can preferably be manufactured in a cost-effective and material-saving manner and which occupies a small volume of space and has a small space requirement, respectively, in order, for example, to enable the transport of as many persons as possible during transport in a gondola.

This object is solved according to the invention by the features of the independent claims. Further advantageous embodiments are subject of the subclaims.

According to a first aspect of the present invention, a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis comprises a standing means on which a user can stand.

In the present description, the term “for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis” can be understood as meaning that the ski winter sports device is constructed and configured to slide downhill with three skis. In other words, three skis can be arranged on the ski winter sports device in order to slide downhill with the ski winter sports device. For the sake of completeness, it is pointed out that if only two skis are arranged, the ski winter sports device may be poorly usable or not usable at all.

Two skis can be arranged on the standing means, side by side in the direction of travel, so that one ski is available for each foot of a user. The two skis can be arranged on the standing means in such a way that they are hip-width spaced.

Further, the ski winter sports device comprises a frame means for connecting the standing means to a holding means for holding by hand, wherein the frame means and the standing means being relatively movably connected to each other.

The frame means and the standing means can be configured to be foldable relative to each other so that the required spatial volume of the ski winter sports device in particular the overall length and/or the overall height of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced.

In the present description, the term “spatial volume” can be understood to mean that a rectangular cuboid having a height, a length and a depth, is placed over the ski winter sports device, wherein the ski winter sports device contacts each surface of the cuboid. In other words, the ski winter sports device fits exactly within the spatial volume of a rectangular cuboid. In this rectangular cuboid, one side surface may be oriented parallel to the surface of the earth and ground, respectively. In this context, “spatial volume” is further understood to mean that the ski winter sports device, in an operating and/or transport state, in each state comprises a position in which it has the smallest possible volume or the smallest possible size or the smallest local requirement or the smallest space requirement. Furthermore, “spatial volume” can be understood as the product of total length, total height and/or depth, whereby the “spatial volume” in an operating state of the ski winter sports device can differ from a “spatial volume” in a transport state of the ski winter sports device. In addition, “foldable” or “folding” may be understood to mean an arrangement in which parts and/or means and/or components and/or elements are rotatably connected to each other.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device can be configured to be transformed or transferred from a transport state to an operating state and vice versa, in particular to be transferred without tools.

In the transport state, the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use.

In the operating state, the ski winter sports device can be ready for use for downhill sliding.

It is also possible for the ski winter sports device to have a larger spatial volume in the operating state compared to the transport state, in particular a larger overall length and/or overall height.

In the transport state, the overall length of the ski winter sports device may be at least 15% or at least 30% less than in the operating state.

The overall length of the ski winter sports device can be formed, in the operating state and viewed in the direction of travel, by the distance from the foremost end of the frame means or a holding means with or without a steering fork to the rearmost end of the standing means, in particular to the rear end of at least one mounting frame part.

The overall length of the ski winter sports device, in the transport state and viewed in the direction of travel, can be formed by the distance from an upper end of a tilting member of the standing means to the rearmost end of the standing means, in particular to the rear end of at least one mounting frame part.

Furthermore, the overall length of the ski winter sports device in the transport state and as viewed in the direction of travel can be formed from the end of the holding means which, as viewed against the direction of travel, projects beyond the rearmost end of the standing means in the operating state, in particular the rear end of mounting frame parts, to an upper end of a tilting member of a first connecting means which connects the frame means to the standing means in a relatively movable manner with respect to one another.

In the transport state, the overall height of the ski winter sports device may be at least 15% or at least 30% less than in the operating state.

The overall height of the ski winter sports device may be formed by the distance from the highest end of the frame means or a holding means to the ground or to at least one mounting frame part of the standing means when viewed transversely to the direction of travel in the operating state.

Also, the overall height of the ski winter sports device in the transport state, as viewed transversely to the direction of travel, can be formed by the distance from the highest end of the frame means or the holding means to the ground or to at least one mounting frame part of the standing means.

In this context, total length and/or total height can be understood and determined in such a way that at least one ski or the skis or at least one mounting frame part of the standing means rests on the ground or the surface of the earth when determining them.

Further, in a transport state, the frame means and the standing means may be movable toward each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of closing scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife, and/or away from each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of opening scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife.

It is also conceivable that in a transport state, in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, the frame means can be folded in the direction of the standing means or vice versa, so that the spatial volume, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height, of the ski winter sports device is reduced in comparison with the operating state.

Further, in an operating state, the frame means and the standing means may be movable relative to each other within a limited angular range or within a limited range.

Throughout the description, the terms “limited angular range” and “limited range” may be used interchangeably.

In the operating state, the frame means can be configured to be movable relative to the standing means within a limited angular range, so that unevenness of the ski slope during downhill sliding can be compensated for by the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means within the limited angular range.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device may be configured such that the frame means and the standing means remain rotatably connected to each other beyond a limited angular range, for example, after the toolless and non-destructive release of a quick-connection means of a first connecting means, so that the ski winter sports device can be transferred from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the frame means relative to the standing means.

Additionally or alternatively, the ski winter sports device may be configured, particularly in the operating condition, such that the frame means and the standing means are rotatably connected to each other within a limited angular range, for example, after the toolless and releasable installation of a quick-connection means of a first connecting means, so that, by moving the frame means relative to the standing means, unevenness of the ski slope during downhill sliding can be compensated for by the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means within the limited angular range, wherein it is not possible to transfer from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the frame means relative to the standing means.

It is also conceivable that the limited angular range allows relative rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees from the frame means to the standing means.

Further, the limited angular range may allow relative rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from a frame component of the frame means to a frame member of the standing means or to a mounting frame part of the standing means.

Further, the ski winter sports device may be configured such that the frame means and the standing means together have an L-shape in the operating condition, similar to a hockey stick. Thus, in the operating condition the frame means and the standing means together may include an angle between 100 and 150 degrees or a 135 degree angle. Such an angle allows for an ergonomic posture on the ski winter sports device.

A second aspect of the present invention comprises a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis.

It is noted that the features of the ski winter sports device as mentioned in the second aspect may individually or in combination apply to the ski winter sports device according to the first aspect.

Also, the features mentioned above under the first aspect of the invention may be combined with the features according to the second aspect of the invention.

Thus, a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis, in particular according to the first aspect, can have a holding means for holding by hand, or to which a user can hold on, wherein a ski can be arranged on the holding means.

Further, the ski winter sports device may include a frame means for connecting the holding means to a standing means on which a user may stand.

In addition, the frame means and the holding means can be configured to be foldable relative to each other so that the required spatial volume of ski winter sports device, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced.

Further, the ski winter sports device may be foldable about at least one axis oriented perpendicular to the direction of travel of the ski winter sports device.

It is conceivable that the frame means and the standing means can be folded and/or moved about at least one horizontal axis that is aligned transversely to the direction of travel.

Also, the frame means and the holding means can be foldable and/or movable about at least one horizontal axis that is oriented transversely to the direction of travel.

Furthermore, it is possible that in a transport state the frame means and the holding means are movable towards each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of a closing pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife, and/or movable away from each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of an opening pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife.

In a transport state, in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, the holding means can be folded in the direction of the frame means or vice versa, so that the spatial volume, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height, of the ski winter sports device is reduced compared to an operating state in which the ski winter sports device is ready for use for downhill sliding.

Also, the ski winter sports device may be configured such that the frame means and the holding means together have an upside-down V-shaped configuration when in the operating state.

In the operating state, the frame means and the holding means can be configured to be rotationally rigid with respect to each other about at least one horizontal axis oriented transversely to the direction of travel.

In the transport state, the frame means and the holding means can be configured to rotate relative to each other about at least one horizontal axis oriented transversely to the direction of travel.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device can be configured in such a way that the frame means and the holding means remain rotatably connected to one another, for example, after a quick-connection means of a second connecting means has been released without tools and without destruction, so that the ski winter sports device can be transferred from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the holding means relative to the frame means.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device may be configured such that the frame means and the holding means are rotationally rigidly connected to each other, for example, after the toolless and releasable installation of a quick-connection means of a second connecting means, so that a transfer from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa is not possible by moving the frame means relative to the holding means.

A third aspect of the present invention comprises a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis.

It is expressly noted that the features as mentioned in the third aspect of the invention may individually or in combination apply to the first and/or second aspect.

Also, the features mentioned above under the first and/or second aspect of the invention may be combined with the features according to the third aspect of the invention.

Thus, according to the first and/or second aspect, a ski winter sports device, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three arrangeable skis may comprise a holding means for holding by hand, wherein a ski is arrangeable on the holding means.

In addition, the holding means may include a head tube element for receiving a steerer tube of a steering fork.

The head tube element may allow relative rotation of the steerer tube and the frame means to achieve a change in direction for a ski on the holding means with the aid of a rotation of the steering fork.

The holding means for holding may comprise a handlebar and a steering fork, in particular a bicycle fork.

The holding means and the frame means can be configured so that the handlebar can be rotated relative to the frame means so that the direction of a ski on the holding means can be changed in its direction.

Also, the ski winter sports device can comprise a standing means on which a user can stand, wherein two skis can be arranged on the standing means, which can be arranged next to each other in the direction of travel, so that one ski is available for each foot of a user.

Further, the ski winter sports device may include a frame means for connecting the holding means to the standing means, the frame means and the standing means being relatively movably connected to each other.

In addition, both the frame means and the standing means can be configured to fold relative to one another and the frame means and the holding means can be configured to fold relative to one another, so that the required spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced.

Further, the ski winter sports device may include a first connecting means for connecting the frame means to the standing means for relative movement with respect to each other.

The first connecting means can be configured to enable a relative movement of the frame means and the standing means with respect to each other, in particular to increase and/or decrease the relative movement, but in particular not to prevent the relative movement.

Also, the first connecting means may articulately connect the frame means and the standing means.

Furthermore, the frame means and the standing means may be connected to each other, in particular exclusively, via the first connecting means.

It is also conceivable that the frame means is arranged, in particular exclusively, on the first connecting means.

Furthermore, it is possible that the standing means is arranged, in particular exclusively, on the first connecting means.

Furthermore, the first connecting means can be configured to limit the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means with respect to each other in an operating state in which the ski winter sports device is ready for use for downhill sliding, such that they can be moved relative to each other within a limited range, in particular within a limited angular range, and thus to ensure safe downhill sliding.

It is also conceivable, in an operating state in which the ski winter sports device is ready for use for downhill sliding, to limit the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means with respect to one another in such a way that they can be moved relative to one another within a limited range, in particular within a limited angular range, and thus to ensure safe downhill sliding.

It is also possible that the limited range, in particular the limited angular range, allows a movement between 2 and 5 cm, in particular a rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from the frame means to the standing means.

Furthermore, it is also possible that the limited range, in particular the limited angular range, allows a movement between 2 and 5 cm, in particular a rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from a frame component of the frame means to a frame member of the standing means or to a mounting frame part of the standing means.

Furthermore, it is conceivable, in a transport state in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, to increase the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means in such a way that, by folding the frame means and the standing means relative to one another, in particular as seen in the direction of travel, the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced in comparison to an operating state.

Furthermore, the first connecting means can be configured to increase the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means in a transport state, in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, in such a way that by folding the frame means and the standing means relative to one another, in particular as seen in the direction of travel, the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall length and/or the overall height of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced in comparison to the operating state.

It is further conceivable, in a transport state in which the ski winter sports device is transportable to the place of use, to increase the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means such that they are movable relative to one another beyond a limited range or a limited angular range and thus the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall height and/or the overall length of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced compared to an operating state.

It is also possible that the first connecting means is configured to increase the relative movement of the frame means and the standing means in a transport state in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, such that they can be moved relative to one another beyond the limited range and thus the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall height and/or the overall length of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced compared to the operating state.

Also, the first connecting means can be arranged on the frame means and/or on the standing means, in particular directly.

Moreover, it is conceivable that the first connecting means is configured to fold and/or move the frame means and the standing means about at least one horizontal axis that is oriented transversely to the direction of travel.

Furthermore, in a transport state, a relative movement of the frame means towards the standing means can be enlarged, for example with the aid of the first connecting means, in such a way that the frame means and the standing means, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of a closing pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife, are configured to be foldable, as a result of which the required spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall height and/or the overall length of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced compared to the operating state.

Furthermore, in the operating state, a relative movement of the frame means towards the standing means can be reduced, for example with the aid of the first connecting means, in such a way that the first connecting means prevents folding, while still ensuring safe downhill sliding.

It may also be possible that, in the operating state, a relative movement of the frame means towards the standing means can be reduced or minimized, for example with the aid of the first connecting means, in such a way that a movement of the frame means relative to the standing means via the first connecting means can be limited at least for the most part, in particular to a limited angular range.

In this case, the limited angular range may allow a rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from the frame means to the standing means.

In addition, the limited angular range may allow rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from a frame component of the frame means to a frame member of the standing means or to a mounting frame part of the standing means.

Furthermore, the first connecting means may be configured to allow movement and/or folding of the frame means relative to the standing means.

When folding, the frame means can be moved within a larger angular range relative to the standing means than when moving. When moving, the angular range or limited angular range may be less than the angular range when folding, for example less than or equal to 50%.

In this context, the first connecting means may comprise at least one first connecting element having a first pivot point, formable into a swivel joint, to which the frame means is rotatably attached, in particular in the transport state, preferably only in the transport state.

Also, the first connecting means may include at least a first connection member having a second pivot point, formable into a swivel joint, to which the first connecting element is rotatably attached to a second connecting element of the first connecting means.

Further, the first and second pivot points may be located at opposite ends of the first connecting element.

Also, the first and/or second pivot points may form part of a swivel joint.

Furthermore, it is possible that the first connecting element comprises a junction to the frame means, in particular between the first and second pivot points, in order to prevent relative movement between the frame means and the first connecting element about the first pivot point with the aid of a toolless, non-destructive, releasably fastenable quick-connection means.

In addition, it can be provided that the junction for a toolless, non-destructive, releasably fastenable quick-connection means is formed as a feedthrough through the first connecting element.

In this case, the pivot point of the second connecting element may be arranged within the second connecting element.

In addition, the second connecting element may include first and second end stops for a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means.

Also, it is possible for the first and second end stops to be spaced apart to limit relative movement of a first connecting element of the first connecting means with respect to the second connecting element.

Furthermore, it is conceivable that a first leg, formed by a line between the first end stop and the pivot point of the second connecting element, and a second leg, formed by a line between the second end stop and the pivot point of the second connecting element, enclose an angle of between 60 and 120 degrees, in particular of 100 degrees.

Each end stop may be formed as a nose projecting from the second connecting element.

Furthermore, each end stop can be adapted in terms of its shape to a toolless, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means to ensure non-destructive slinging.

Furthermore, the second connecting element between the first and second end stop can comprise a curved path, preferably a circular path, and in particular be disc-shaped.

In addition, the first connecting means may include a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means for slinging against at least one end stop of a second connecting element and limiting relative movement between first and second connecting elements of the first connecting means.

It is also possible that the quick-connection means is configured to connect the first connecting element to the frame means, in particular to releasably fasten the first connecting element to the frame means without tools and in a non-destructive manner. In this way, rotation of the at least one first connecting element relative to the frame means about the first pivot point of the at least one first connecting element can be prevented.

Furthermore, the quick-connection means can be adapted to a junction of a first connecting element of the first connecting means with respect to shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

In the operating condition, the quick-connection means may be disposed in the junction of the first connecting element to prevent rotation of the first connecting element relative to the frame means about the first pivot point of the first connecting element.

In the transport state, the quick-connection means may be removed from the junction of the first connecting element, allowing rotation of the first connecting element relative to the frame means about the first pivot point of the first connecting element.

Furthermore, it can be provided that the first connecting means comprises a tilting member which is configured to tilt transversely to a direction of travel according to the inclination of the standing means, in particular its two arrangeable skis or the inclination of the mounting frame parts of the standing means.

In addition, it is possible that the first connecting means comprises a tilting member which is connected to a parallelogram guide so that transversely to a direction of travel the inclination of the standing means or the inclination of the mounting frame parts of the standing means, in particular its two arrangeable skis, can be transferred to the tilting member or can be synchronized with the tilting member.

Further, the tilting member may include an upper end and a lower end.

The parallelogram guide can be a parallel crank gear or a gear of a four-link chain, each of whose opposite links are of equal length.

The parallelogram guide or its components may have a shape similar to a sheet of metal, the width and length of which are much greater than its thickness.

The parallelogram guide, in particular its components, can be or have been created by means of a punching process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

Furthermore, the parallelogram guide may include four components.

A first and second component may be parallel to each other, horizontally arranged, and oriented transverse to the direction of travel.

In addition, a tilting member of a first connecting means can be arranged, in particular centrally, on the first and second components.

Also, the first and/or second component of the parallelogram guide may each have two legs that are inclined with respect to each other, in particular forming a V-shape.

Centered on the first and second components, particularly at the transition from one leg of the V-shape to the other leg, the tilting member of the first connecting means may be rotatably attached.

It is also possible for the first and/or second components to each form a swivel joint at their ends with a third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide, the axis of rotation of which is oriented in the direction of travel and inclined towards the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

The first and/or second component can form a swivel joint with the tilting part, the axis of rotation of which is oriented in the direction of travel and inclined towards the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

As already mentioned, the parallelogram guide can include four components.

A third and fourth component can be parallel to each other and aligned in the direction of travel.

A first and a second component of the parallelogram guide may be rotatably disposed on the third and fourth components, respectively.

The third and fourth components may form multiple swivel joints with the first and second components, respectively.

A third component can be arranged on a first mounting frame part, in particular on its at least one frame member, preferably rotatably.

Also, a fourth component of the parallelogram guide can be arranged on a second mounting frame part, in particular on its at least one frame member, preferably rotatably.

Further, a third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide may have an L-shape, similar to a hockey stick. Here, the third and/or fourth components may include an angle between 100 and 150 degrees or a 135 degree angle between two legs.

The L-shape can comprise a short leg and a long leg, wherein, for example, the short leg can be arranged on a mounting frame part, in particular on its at least one frame member, and in particular rotatably.

Also, the short leg may include a first end and a second end, wherein the long leg may be disposed at the second end.

Also, at the second end, a rotational point, formable into a swivel joint, can be formed, at which the third and/or fourth component can be rotatably arranged, in particular fastened, to the corresponding mounting frame part, in particular to its at least one frame member.

The rotational point at the second end and a corresponding rotational point of the at least one mounting frame part, in particular the rotational point of the at least one frame member, may form a swivel joint.

The short leg can be arranged between two frame members of a mounting frame part, in particular rotatably.

At the first end of the short leg, a quick-connection point to a mounting frame part, in particular to its at least one frame member, can be arranged in order to prevent the relative movement of the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide to the mounting frame part with the aid of a quick-connection means that can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructive manner.

The quick-connection point for a toolless, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means can be formed in each case as a feedthrough through the third and/or fourth component, in particular through its short leg.

Furthermore, the quick-connection point can be adapted to a toolless, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means with regard to shape and fit, in particular configured as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

On the long leg of the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide, the first and second components thereof, that is, the first and second components of the parallelogram guide, may be spaced apart.

Furthermore, the first and second components can be rotatably arranged on the long leg.

In addition, the first and second components may be rotatably disposed at the ends of the long leg of the third and fourth components of the parallelogram guide.

Also, the short and long legs may have a shape similar to a sheet of metal.

Furthermore, it is possible that each leg has a shape similar to a sheet of metal, the width and length of which are much greater than its thickness.

It may further be provided that the third and/or fourth component is or has been created by means of a stamping process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

The short leg and the long leg can be twisted 90 degrees to each other and placed against each other.

The third and/or fourth components, in particular their short and long legs, can be formed in one piece.

In an operating state in which the ski winter sports device is ready for downhill sliding, the relative movement of the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide to the mounting frame part may be prevented, thus ensuring safe downhill sliding.

Furthermore, in a transport state in which the ski winter sports device can be transported to the place of use, the relative movement of a mounting frame part to the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide can be permitted, so that by rotating the third and/or fourth component and the mounting frame part relative to one another, in particular as viewed in the direction of travel, the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, in particular the overall height and/or the overall length of the ski winter sports device, can be reduced in comparison with the operating state.

In an operating state, the angle between the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide, in particular its long leg, and the associated mounting frame part, in particular to its at least one frame member, can be unchangeable.

Furthermore, in a transport state, the angle between the third and/or fourth component, in particular its long leg, and the associated mounting frame part, in particular to its at least one frame member, can be changed.

Also, in the operating condition, the third and/or fourth component, in particular its long leg, may include an angle of between 90 and 150 degrees, in particular of 120 degrees, with the associated mounting frame part.

In the transport state, the third and/or fourth component, in particular its long leg, can enclose an angle of between 150 and 200 degrees, in particular 180 degrees, with the associated mounting frame part.

Also, in the transport state, in order to reduce the spatial volume of the ski winter sports device, the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide can be rotatably connected to the at least one mounting frame part, in particular in a clockwise direction.

The rotational point at the second end of the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide and the rotational point of the at least one mounting frame part, in particular the rotational point of the at least one frame member, may form a swivel joint.

In the transport state, the third and/or fourth component can be folded into line with the mounting frame part so that a long leg of the third and/or fourth component is arranged in extension of the mounting frame part, whereby the spatial volume, in particular the overall height and/or the overall length, of the ski winter sports device can be reduced compared to the operating state.

The third and/or fourth component and the mounting frame part can be configured to be foldable and/or movable about at least one horizontal axis that is oriented transversely to the direction of travel.

Furthermore, the parallelogram guide may comprise a fifth component with which the rear ends, with respect to the direction of travel of the ski winter sports device, of the two mounting frame parts are hingedly connected to each other.

The fifth component may have two legs that are inclined towards each other, in particular forming a V-shape.

A connection means for connecting the fifth component to the frame means and/or to the first connecting means can be arranged centrally on the fifth component, in particular at the transition from one leg of the V-shape to the other leg.

The fifth component can have a pivot point at each of its ends, formable into a swivel joint, whose axis of rotation is oriented in the direction of travel and inclined towards the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

The fifth component may have at its center a pivot point for a connection means whose axis of rotation is oriented in the direction of travel and inclined toward the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a race car.

It is noted that the following features may apply individually or in combination to the first, second, third, fourth and/or fifth aspects.

Thus, the standing means may include a connection means that connects the fifth component of the parallelogram guide to the frame means and/or to the first connecting means.

The connection means can have a variable length, in particular it can be telescoped. It is also conceivable that the variable length can be locked, so that the connection means can be fixed at the desired length after setting. It is also possible for the connection means to have an invariable or unchangeable length.

Also, the connection means may comprise an energy storage and/or an energy converter. Thus, the connection means can have a spring element and/or a damper element. Thus, movements between the frame member and the standing means can be limited and/or damped.

The energy storage and/or energy converter and/or telescoping formation may be arranged in a line.

The connection means can be attached to the frame means and/or to the first connecting means in a toolless, non-destructively releasable manner via a quick-connection means that can be attached in a toolless, non-destructively releasable manner.

Further, a first end of the connection means may receive the quick-connection means.

Also, the connection means may have a feedthrough at its first end through which the quick-connection means may be passed.

A corresponding feedthrough may also be provided in the frame component of the frame means, so that the quick-connection means is insertable into said feedthroughs of the frame component and the connection means to connect them all together.

The feedthrough, in particular formed as a bore, can form a fit with the quick-connection means, in particular a clearance fit or a transition fit.

The connection means may include a second end attached to the fifth component of the parallelogram guide, in particular rotatably attached to a pivot point of the fifth component to form a swivel joint or a rigid connection.

The connection means can be attached to the fifth component of the parallelogram guide in a toolless, non-destructively releasable manner via a quick-connection means.

Further, the first end of the connection means may receive the quick-connection means.

Also, the connection means may have a feedthrough at its second end through which the quick-connection means may be passed.

The feedthrough, in particular formed as a bore, can form a fit with the quick-connection means, in particular a clearance fit or a transition fit.

Both the pivot point of the fifth components and the second end of the connection means may each have, or may be configured as, a feedthrough, configured as a bore, for receiving a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means connecting the connection means and the fifth component.

The aforementioned feedthroughs and the quick-connection means can be adapted to each other in terms of shape and fit, in particular configured as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

As a result, therefore, the quick-connection means can be released at the first and/or second end of the connection means to quickly release the connection means from the fifth component of the parallelogram guide and/or the frame means without tools or destruction.

Furthermore, the connection means can be constructed in at least two parts. The two parts can be configured to be movable relative to each other. In particular, the two parts can be connected to each other via a lockable and releasable swivel joint.

Here, each part of the connection means or only one of the two can be configured to be telescopic.

Also, each part of the connection means may include an energy storage and/or an energy converter.

Further, the standing means may include a foot receiving means that receives a shoe of a user.

The foot receiving means can be foldably arranged on at least one mounting frame part of the standing means or on a connecting component of at least one mounting frame part. The foot receiving means can be folded about an axis which is oriented in the same direction as the direction of travel.

The foot receiving means may include a base member attached to a connecting component of at least one mounting frame part, and on which the sole of a user's shoe is placeable.

The base member can be formed as a plate and with protrusions to increase the friction between the sole of a shoe and the base member.

In addition, the standing means may include a foot receiving means that receives a shoe of a user.

The foot receiving means may include a retaining means that is attached to a connecting component of at least one mounting frame part, and that at least partially prevents removal of a user's shoe through an opening between the retaining means and a base member of the foot receiving means.

The retaining means can be C-shaped or U-shaped.

One of the two opposing flanges of the C-shaped or U-section retaining means can be attached to a base member of the foot receiving means and/or to a connecting component of at least one mounting frame part.

Furthermore, the retaining means can have at least one guide along which one of the two opposing flanges of the C-shaped or U-section retaining means can be slidably arranged in order to adapt the distance between the flange and the base member and/or the position in the direction of travel to the size and shape of a user's shoe.

As mentioned above, it is noted as a precaution that the following features may apply individually or in combination to the first, second, third, fourth and/or fifth aspects.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device may be configured such that the holding means remains rotatably connected to the frame means after a tool-less, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means of a second connecting means of the ski winter sports device has been released, so that the ski winter sports device may be transferred from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the holding means relative to the frame means.

Also, the ski winter sports device may include a second connecting means for attaching the holding means to the frame means.

The second connecting means may be configured to quickly allow and quickly stop pivoting of the frame means and the holding means.

The second connecting means may include a third connecting element for connecting the frame means to the holding means.

The third connecting element may be arranged between two frame components of the frame means.

In addition, the third connecting element can comprise a pivot point, in particular formed as a feedthrough and/or formable into a swivel joint, about which the holding means is rotatably attached to the frame means, in particular in the transport state, preferably only in the transport state.

The pivot point can be configured for a bolt or a screw.

Further, the pivot point and a rotational point of the second end of the frame component of the frame means may form a swivel joint.

The second connecting means or the third connecting element of the second connecting means may be integrally formed with the holding means or integrally formed with a control tube member of the holding means.

The third connecting element can comprise a quick-connection point, in particular formed as a feedthrough and/or formable into a swivel joint, in order to prevent the relative rotational movement of the holding means to the frame means about the pivot point with the aid of a quick-connection means which can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructively releasable manner.

The quick-connection point and the second junction at the second end of the frame component, together with the pivot point and the rotational point, may form a lockable and/or releasable swivel joint.

The quick-connection point can be adapted to a toolless, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means in terms of shape and fit, in particular configured as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

Further, the pivot point and the quick-connection point may be spaced apart so that relative rotation of the holding means and the frame means is permitted or possible and/or can be prevented.

In the operating state, the frame means and the third connecting element can be connected positively and/or non-positively, in particular with the aid of the quick-connection means.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device, in particular its first connecting means and/or its second connecting means, may comprise at least one quick-connection means for the toolless, non-destructive and releasable attachment of means and/or elements.

In addition, the ski winter sports device may comprise at least one quick-connection means for the toolless, non-destructive and releasable mounting of means and/or elements and the ski winter sports device may be configured to quickly and non-destructively release the holding means from the frame means and/or the standing means from the frame means and/or the parallelogram guide from the mounting frame part, as well as to quickly connect them in order to transfer the ski winter sports device from the transport state to the operating state or vice versa.

The quick-connection means can be configured to connect a first connecting element of the first connecting means to the frame means in a toolless, non-destructive, and releasably fastenable manner.

Furthermore, the quick-connection means can be configured to connect the frame means, in particular its frame component, to a third connecting element of the second connecting means in a toolless, non-destructive and releasably fastenable manner.

The quick-connection means can be configured to connect the third and/or fourth component of the parallelogram guide to the mounting frame part in a toolless, non-destructive and releasable manner.

“Tool-less” may be understood in the present context to mean that the quick-connection means is operable by a user by hand, without the use of a tool that must be carried.

“Non-destructively and releasably fastenable” or a “toolless, non-destructively and releasably fastenable” can be understood in the present description as meaning, for example, that a quick-connection means can be used to arrange two elements and/or an element with a means and/or two means against each other in such a way that they can be released from each other and reconnected to each other as often as desired without destruction.

Furthermore, the quick-connection means can be configured similar to a quick release.

The quick release may comprise an eccentric lever and a clamping axle, at one end of which the eccentric lever is arranged and at the other end of which a clamping element is arranged.

The quick release can clamp means and/or elements of the ski winter sports device together.

The quick release may include a clamping element formed as a bolt, a first end of which has a thread.

The clamping element may also include a nut for screwing.

A second end of the clamping element may include an eccentric clamping lever for generating a clamping force.

Further, the quick-connection means may include a snap lock.

The snap lock may be formed on a means or on an element or on the frame means.

The quick-connection means may have a plug-in element to be received in a snap lock.

The plug-in element may have a shape similar to a screw.

In addition, the snap lock may be similar to a carabiner that secures a corresponding counterpart.

The quick-connection means can be configured as a tension lock.

The tension lock may comprise a strap and a tensioning lever, wherein the tension lock connects a means, a part or an element to a further means, part or element in a positive and/or non-positive manner.

Furthermore, the quick-connection means can be configured as a screw connection, in particular with a screw body with external thread and internal thread.

The internal thread can be cut into a means or into an element or can be realized with a nut.

Furthermore, the quick-connection means can be configured as a plug-in bolt, in particular as a plug-in bolt with a safety device to prevent it from being pulled out.

The quick-connection means may be in the form of a bolt, the second end of which has a grip portion for gripping and guiding.

In addition, the quick-connection means may have a threaded portion at its first end and a grip portion at its second end for gripping and guiding.

Also, the quick-connection means and the junctions and quick-connection points may have a fit, particularly a clearance fit or a transition fit.

Furthermore, a pivot point and/or rotational point can be configured as a feedthrough.

The swivel joint formed by these can be configured to be lockable and/or releasable.

In addition, the swivel joint or the swivel joint formed by a pivot point and/or by a rotational point, in which one component is relatively rotatable with respect to another component, may be formed as a plain bearing and/or as a rolling bearing.

Further, the frame means may include a carrying means for carrying by hand and/or for hooking to a seat of a ski lift.

In the operating state, the quick-connection means can movably connect the first connecting means to the frame means.

In the transport state, a connection between the first connecting means and the frame means may be released after the quick-connection means is released, and another connection may persist.

Furthermore, three skis can be arranged on the ski winter sports device.

The three skis can be arranged relative to each other similar to the wheels of a tricycle.

The ski of the holding means can be arranged in front of the two skis of the standing means in the direction of travel.

The ski of the holding means can be arranged between two skis of the standing means, viewed transversely to the direction of travel of the ski winter sports device.

The first mounting frame part and the second mounting frame part, and thus the two skis, can be arranged hip-width apart.

Of course, it is also possible that the ski winter sports device comprises skis, in particular three skis.

In the present description, the term “in the direction of travel” can be understood as a direction starting at the standing means, towards the frame means and further towards the holding means, whereby all three mentioned means can be arranged in series and one behind the other.

Furthermore, the terms “in particular” and “for example” may be used synonymously throughout this description.

The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to an example of an embodiment in conjunction with associated drawings. Here schematically:

FIG. 16 shows an enlarged, three-dimensional view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1; and

FIG. 17 shows a side view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1 in an operating state.

In the following description, the same reference signs are used for the same objects.

FIG. 1 shows a spatial view of a ski winter sports device 1 and FIG. 2 shows a top view of the ski winter sports device from FIG. 1.

More specifically, FIGS. 1 and 2 show a ski winter sports device 1, more particularly a ski trike, for downhill sliding with three skis A, B, C (schematically indicated).

The ski winter sports device 1 has a holding means 4 for holding by hand, wherein a ski C can be arranged on the holding means 4.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device 1 has a standing means 2 on which a user can stand, wherein two skis A, B can be arranged on the standing means 2, which can be arranged next to each other in the direction of travel F, so that one ski A, B is available for each foot of a user.

In addition, the ski winter sports device 1 comprises a frame means 3 for connecting the holding means 4 to the standing means 2, wherein the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are relatively movably connected to each other.

Furthermore, both the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are configured to be foldable relative to each other, and the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 are configured to be foldable relative to each other, so that the required spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the overall length GL and the overall height GH of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced.

However, it is also possible that only the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are configured to be foldable relative to each other, so that the required spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the total length GL and the total height GH of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced.

Another possibility is that only the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 are configured to be foldable relative to each other, so that the required spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced.

In this context, total length GL and total height GH are understood and determined in such a way that, when determining them, at least the skis or mounting frame parts 27, 28 of the standing means 2 rest on the ground or the surface of the earth.

With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1, as viewed in the direction of travel F, is formed by the distance from the foremost end of the holding means 4 with steering fork 65 to the rearmost end of the standing means 2, in particular to the rear end of mounting frame parts 27, 28.

The overall height GH of the ski winter sports device 1 is formed by the distance from the highest end of the holding means 4 to mounting frame parts 27, 28 of the standing means 2, viewed transversely to the direction of travel F.

FIGS. 3 to 8 show what the above-mentioned foldable design actually means.

FIG. 3 shows a side view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1 in an operating state, FIG. 4 shows a side view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1 during the transition from the operating state of FIG. 1 to a transport state, and FIG. 5 shows a side view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1 in a transport state.

FIGS. 6 to 8 show a spatial view of the ski winter sports device of FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, respectively, in various states.

Said FIGS. 3 to 8 show that the ski winter sports device 1 is configured to be transformed or transferred from a transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8) to an operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6) and vice versa, in particular to be transferred without tools.

In the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), the ski winter sports device 1 can be transported to the place of use, and in the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6), it is ready for use for downhill sliding.

Furthermore, in the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6), the ski winter sports device 1 has a larger spatial volume RV compared to the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), in particular a larger overall length GL and overall height GH.

In the present description, the term “spatial volume” is understood to mean that a rectangular cuboid with a height H, a length L and a depth T is placed over the ski winter sports device 1. Thereby, the ski winter sports device 1 contacts each surface of the cuboid. In other words, the ski winter sports device 1 fits exactly into the spatial volume RV of the rectangular cuboid. In the case of this rectangular cuboid, one side surface may be aligned parallel to the surface of the earth or to the ground.

The spatial volume RV or a side view of the rectangular cuboid with a height H and a length L is indicated in FIGS. 3 and 5. The depth of the spatial volume RV is not shown due to the side view shown. The depth corresponds to the width of the ski winter sports device 1.

The depth T or width is indicated in FIGS. 6 to 8.

As can be seen in particular by looking at FIGS. 6 to 8, the ski winter sports device 1 can be folded about the axes G1, G2, G3, G4 which are oriented perpendicular to the direction of travel F of the ski winter sports device 1.

More precisely, the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are foldable and movable around the horizontal axes G1, G2, G3, G4, which is oriented transversely to the direction of travel F.

Furthermore, the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 can be folded and moved about a horizontal axis G3, which is also aligned transversely to the direction of travel F.

In summary, it can be stated that the axes G1, G2, G3, G4 are aligned parallel to each other, so that as a result the ski winter sports device 1 can be folded and moved about a horizontal axis G which is aligned transversely to the direction of travel F.

In other words, in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are movable towards each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of a closing pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife, and/or are movable away from each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of an opening pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife.

The same applies to the frame means 3 and the holding means 4, which are also movable towards each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of a closing pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife, and/or movable away from each other, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of an opening pair of scissors or similar to a folding blade of a pocket knife.

Thus, in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), the frame means 2 is folded or foldable in the direction of the standing means 2 or vice versa, so that the spatial volume RV, in particular the overall length GL and the overall height GH, of the ski winter sports device 1 is reduced compared to the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6).

Furthermore, in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), the holding means 4 is folded or foldable in the direction of the frame means 3 or vice versa, so that the spatial volume RV, in particular the total length GL and the total height GH, of the ski winter sports device 1 is reduced compared to the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6).

With reference to FIG. 5, which shows the transport state, the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1, as seen in the direction of travel F, is formed as follows; namely from the end of the holding means 4, which, as seen against the direction of travel F, projects beyond the rearmost end of the standing means 2 in the operating state, in particular the rear end of mounting frame parts 27, 28, to an upper end 15 of a tilting member 14 of a first connecting means 5, which connects the frame means 3 to the standing means 2 so as to be movable relative to one another.

FIG. 9 shows another spatial view of the ski winter sports device 1 of FIG. 1, but with only one frame component 17. FIG. 10, on the other hand, shows an enlarged view of FIG. 9, with FIG. 11 showing the same view as FIG. 10 with further elements not shown in order to facilitate description and increase clarity.

FIG. 12 shows an enlarged view of FIG. 10, while FIG. 13 shows the same view as FIG. 12 but with additional elements not shown.

For the sake of simplicity and brevity, the aforementioned FIGS. 9 to 13 are described together, whereby reference is made to the respective figure concerning particular details, which illustrates the described features recognizably well.

As shown in FIGS. 9 to 13, but also in FIGS. 1 to 8, the ski winter sports device 1 has a first connecting means 5 that connects the frame means 3 to the standing means 2 in a relatively movable manner with respect to each other.

The first connecting means 5 is configured to allow a relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 with respect to each other, in particular to increase and/or decrease it, but in particular not to prevent it.

Also, the first connecting means 5 connects the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 to each other in an articulated manner, wherein the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are precisely connected to each other via the first connecting means 5.

In this context, the first connecting means 5 is configured to limit the relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 with respect to each other in the operating state (cf. FIG. 9), in which the ski winter sports device 1 is ready for use for downhill sliding, in such a way that they can be moved relative to each other within a limited angular range and thus to ensure safe downhill sliding.

Here, the limited angular range allows a rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees from a frame component 17 of the frame means 3 to a frame member 29, 30 of the standing means 2 or to a mounting frame part 27, 28 of the standing means 2.

Furthermore, the first connecting means 5 is configured to increase the relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 in the transport state in which the ski winter sports device 1 can be transported to the place of use (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), to increase the relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 in such a way that, by folding the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 relative to one another, in particular as viewed in the direction of travel F, the spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the overall length GL and the overall height GH of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced in comparison with the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3 and 6).

Also, the first connecting means 5 is arranged on the frame means 3 and on the standing means 2.

In this case, the first connecting means 5 is configured to fold or move the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 about the horizontal axes G1 and G2, which are aligned transversely to the direction of travel F.

Furthermore, in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), a relative movement of the frame means 3 towards the standing means 2 can be increased with the aid of the first connecting means 5 in such a way that the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are configured to be foldable, similar to rotatably interconnected levers of a closing pair of scissors or similar to a foldable blade of a pocket knife. As a result, the required spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the overall height GH and the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced compared to the operating state (compare FIGS. 5, 8 with FIGS. 3, 6).

In the operating state, on the other hand (cf. FIGS. 9 to 13 and 3, 6), a relative movement of the frame means 3 towards the standing means 2 is reduced with the aid of the first connecting means 5 in such a way that the first connecting means 5 prevents folding, but safe downhill sliding is ensured.

Thus, in the operating state, a relative movement of the frame means 3 towards the standing means 2 is reduced with the aid of the first connecting means 5 in such a way that a movement of the frame means 3 relative to the standing means 2 via the first connecting means 5 can be limited at least to a large extent, in particular to a limited angular range.

As mentioned above, the limited angular range permits rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from the frame means 3 to the standing means 2 or to a mounting frame part 27, 28 of the standing means 2.

Also, the first connecting means 5 is configured to allow movement or folding of the frame means 3 relative to the standing means 2.

To realize the above-mentioned functions, the first connecting means 5 has two first connecting elements 6, each with a first pivot point 7, formable into a swivel joint, to which the frame means 3 is rotatably attached, in particular in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 9 and 10).

In addition, the first connecting means 5 or its two first connecting elements 6 has a second pivot point 8, formable into a pivot joint, to which the first connecting elements 6 are rotatably attached with a second connecting element 10 of the first connecting means 5 (cf. FIGS. 9 and 10).

Here, the first and second pivot points 7, 8 are arranged at opposite ends of the respective first connecting element 6 and form part of a swivel joint.

As can be seen from FIGS. 9 and 10, the first connecting elements 6 are formed from a sheet of metal whose width and length are much greater than its thickness, each connecting element 6 having been created using a stamping process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

Furthermore, each first connecting element 6 has a junction 9 to the frame means 3 between the first and second pivot points 7, 8 (cf. FIGS. 9 and 10) in order to prevent relative movement between the frame means 3 and the first connecting element 6 about the first pivot point 7 with the aid of a toolless, non-destructive, releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A (not shown, only its attachment point).

The junction 9 is configured for a toolless, non-destructive, releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A as a feedthrough through the first connecting element 6.

Also, the junction 9 is adapted to a toolless, non-destructive, releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A with respect to shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

Thus, in the operating state, the quick-connection means 67A movably connects the first connecting means 5 to the frame means 3, and in the transporting state, after the quick-connection means 67A is released, a connection between the first connecting means 5 and the frame means 3 is released and another connection persists. As a result, in the transport state, the pivot point 7 at which the frame components 17 of the frame means 3 are rotatably arranged forms a pivot point around which frame components 17 and the first connecting elements 6 can rotate.

As FIGS. 9 to 13 further show, the first connecting means 5 has a second connecting element 10 with a pivot point 11, formable into a swivel joint (cf. in particular FIGS. 10 and 11).

A first connecting element 6 of the first connecting means 5 is rotatably attached to the pivot point 11. The pivot point 11 of the second connecting element 10 is rotatably connected to the second pivot point 8 of the first connecting elements 6 to form a swivel joint.

In this case, the pivot point 11 is arranged within the second connecting element 10, wherein the second connecting element 10 comprises a first and a second end stop 12, 13 for a toolless, non-destructively releasable quick-connection means 67A (cf. FIGS. 11 and 12).

Further, the first and second end stops 12, 13 are spaced apart to limit relative movement of the first connecting elements 6 of the first connecting means 5 with respect to the second connecting element 10.

As can be seen in FIG. 12, a first leg S1, formed by a line between the first end stop 12 and the pivot point 11 of the second connecting element 10, and a second leg S2, formed by a line between the second end stop 13 and the pivot point 11 of the second connecting element 10, enclose an angle δ of 100 degrees.

As FIGS. 11 and 12 show, each end stop 12, 13 is formed as a nose projecting from the second connecting element 10.

Each end stop 12, 13 is adapted in terms of its shape to a toolless, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A (not shown) to ensure non-destructive slinging.

Furthermore, as FIGS. 11 and 12 show, the second connecting element 10 has a curved path or is disc-shaped between the first and second end stops 12, 13.

As indicated, the first connecting means 5 has a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A (not shown) for slinging against the end stops 12, 13 of the second connecting element 10 and limiting relative movement between the first and second connecting members 6, 10 of the first connecting means 5.

In this case, the quick-connection means 67A (not shown) is configured to connect the first connecting elements 6 to the frame means 3, in particular to releasably fasten the first connecting elements 6 to the frame means 3 without tools and in a non-destructive manner.

Here, the quick-connection means 67A (not shown) is adapted to the junction 9 of the first connecting element 6 of the first connecting means 5 in terms of shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or transition fit.

In the operating condition, the quick-connection means 67A (not shown) is arranged in the junction 9 of the first connecting element 6 to prevent rotation of the first connecting elements 6 relative to the frame means 3 about the first pivot point 7 of the first connecting element 6.

In the transport state, however, the quick-connection means 67A (not shown) is removed from the junction 9 of the first connecting elements 6, allowing rotation of the first connecting elements 6 relative to the frame means 3 about the first pivot point 7 of the first connecting elements 6.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, the first connecting means 5 has a tilting member 14 which is configured to tilt transversely to a direction of travel F according to the inclination of the standing means 2, in particular its two arrangeable skis A, B or the inclination of the mounting frame parts 27, 28 of the standing means 2.

Thus, the first connecting means 5 has a tilting member 14 which is connected to a parallelogram guide 34 so that the inclination of the standing means 2, in particular its two arrangeable skis A, B or mounting frame parts 27, 28, can be transferred to the tilting member 14 transversely to the direction of travel F or can be synchronized with the tilting member 14.

The tilting member 14 has an upper end 15 and a lower end 16, with the second connecting element 10 of the first connecting means 5 being rotatably or rigidly attached to the lower end.

The lower and upper ends 15, 16 are rotatably connected to a first and to a second component 35, 36 of a parallelogram guide 34, respectively.

The second component 36 of the parallelogram guide 34 is aligned in parallel at the lower end 16 with the first component 35 of the parallelogram guide 34 at the upper end 15.

The tilting member 14 of the first connecting means 5 and the second connecting element 10 of the first connecting means 5 are formed in one piece or integrally or from one piece.

In summary, it can be stated for FIGS. 1 to 12 that in one operating state the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are movable relative to each other in a limited angular range. In this case, the frame means 3 is configured to be movable relative to the standing means 2 within a limited angular range, so that unevenness of the ski slope during downhill sliding can be compensated for by the relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 within the limited angular range.

Furthermore, it can be summarized that the ski winter sports device 1 is configured in such a way that the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 remain rotatably connected to each other beyond a limited angular range after the toolless and non-destructive release of a quick-connection means 67A of a first connecting means 5. Thus, the ski winter sports device 1 can be transferred from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the frame means 3 relative to the standing means 2.

Expressed again in other words, the ski winter sports device 1 is configured in the operating state such that the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 are rotatably connected to each other within a limited angular range after the tool-less and releasable installation of a quick-connection means 67A of a first connecting means 5. Thus, by moving the frame means 3 relative to the standing means 2, unevenness of the ski slope during downhill sliding can be compensated by the relative movement of the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 within the limited angular range, whereby a transfer from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa is not possible by moving the frame means 3 relative to the standing means 2.

As mentioned above, the limited angular range allows relative rotational movement between 15 and 30 degrees, from a frame component 17 of the frame means 3 to a frame member 29, 30 of the standing means 2 or to a mounting frame part 27, 28 of the standing means 2.

In this context, the ski winter sports device 1 is configured in such a way that the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 together have an L-shape in the operating state, similar to an ice hockey stick. Thus, the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 together may include an angle between 100 and 150 degrees in the operating condition. Such an angle enables an ergonomic posture on the ski winter sports device.

Further, as can be seen in FIGS. 10 to 13, the standing means 2 has a parallelogram guide 34 which synchronizes the inclination of the mounting frame parts 27, 28 and thus optional associated skis A, B transverse to a direction of travel F.

The parallelogram guide 34 is a parallel crank gear or a gear of a four-link chain, each of whose opposite links are of equal length.

Also, the parallelogram guide 34 or its individual parts have a shape similar to a sheet of metal, the width and length of which are much greater than its thickness, the parallelogram guide 34, in particular its components 35, 36, 37, 38, having been produced by means of a punching process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

Furthermore, the parallelogram guide 34 has four components 35, 36, 37, 38, as can be seen particularly well in FIG. 13, wherein a first and a second component 35, 36 are parallel to each other, horizontally arranged and oriented transversely to the direction of travel F.

As shown in FIGS. 10 to 13, centrally, at the first and second components 35, 36, the tilting member 14 of the first connecting means 5 is arranged.

The first and second components 35, 36 of the parallelogram guide 34 each have two legs that are inclined with respect to each other to form a V-shape.

Centered on the first and second components 35, 36, in particular at the transition from one leg of the V-shape to the other leg, the tilting member 14 of the first connecting means 5 is rotatably attached.

The first and second components 35, 36 each form a swivel joint 39, 40, 41, 42 at their ends with a third and fourth component 37, 38, respectively, of the parallelogram guide 34, wherein the axis of rotation H of the swivel joints 39, 40, 41, 42 is oriented in the direction of travel F and is inclined toward the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

The first and second components 35, 36 each form a swivel joint 43, 44 with the tilting member 14, the axis of rotation H of which is also oriented in the direction of travel F and is inclined towards the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

Further, as previously mentioned, the parallelogram guide 34 has third and fourth components 37, 38 that are parallel to each other and oriented in the direction of travel F.

As will be discussed in more detail below, the standing means 2 includes first and second mounting frame parts 27, 28 each of which for mounting a foot receiving means 55 and a ski A, B.

In this case, the two mounting frame parts 27, 28 each comprise two frame members 29, 30, to which a connecting component 31 for a foot receiving means 55 and for a ski A, B is attached.

Regarding the parallelogram guide 34, it should be noted that now its third component 37 is rotatably arranged on the first mounting frame part 27, in particular on its frame members 29, 30, and the fourth component 38 is rotatably arranged on the second mounting frame part 28, in particular on its frame members 29, 30.

As shown in particular in FIGS. 11 and 13, the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 have an L-shape, similar to a hockey stick.

In this case, the L-shape has a short leg K and a long leg L, the short leg K being rotatably arranged in each case on the aforementioned mounting frame parts 27, 28, in particular on their frame members 29, 30.

The short leg K has a first end and a second end, with the long leg L disposed at the second end.

Also formed at the second end is a rotational point 45, formable into a swivel joint, at which the third or fourth component 37, 38 is rotatably arranged on the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28, in particular on its frame members 29, 30 (cf. FIGS. 3 to 8 and 11, 13).

The rotational point 45 at the second end and a corresponding rotational point 32 of the mounting frame parts 27, 28, in particular the rotational point 32 of the frame members 29, 30, form a swivel joint.

The short leg K is rotatably arranged between the two frame members 29, 30 of the first and second mounting frame parts 27, 28, respectively.

At the first end of the short leg K, a quick-connection point 46 is arranged to the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28, in particular to its frame members 29, 30. Thus, with the aid of a quick-connection means 67B which can be fastened in a non-destructively releasable manner without tools, the relative movement of third or fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 to the mounting frame part 27, 28 can be prevented.

For a quick-connection means 67B that can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructively releasable manner, the quick-connection point 46 is formed in each case as a feedthrough through the third or fourth component 37, 38, in particular through its short leg K.

Furthermore, the quick-connection point 46 is adapted to a quick-connection means 67B that can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructively releasable manner with respect to shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

On the long leg L of the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34, their first and second components 35, 36 are spaced apart (cf. FIGS. 10 to 13).

Thus, on the long leg L, the first and second components 35, 36 are rotatably arranged, the first and second components 35, 36 being rotatably arranged at the ends of the long leg L of the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34.

The short and long legs K, L have a shape similar to a sheet of metal whose width and length are much greater than its thickness, wherein the third and fourth components 37, 38 have been created by means of a stamping process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

The short and the long leg K, L are, as FIG. 13 shows, twisted by 90 degrees to each other and arranged against each other, whereby the third and fourth components 37, 38, in particular their short and long leg K, L, are formed in one piece.

Furthermore, FIGS. 10 to 13 and 3, 6 show that in the operating condition in which the ski winter sports device 1 is ready for use for downhill sliding, the relative movement of the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 with respect to the mounting frame parts 27, 28 is prevented, thus ensuring safe downhill sliding.

Furthermore, in the transport state in which the ski winter sports device 1 can be transported to the place of use, the relative movement of the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28 to the third or fourth component 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 is permitted, so that by rotating the third and fourth components 37, 38 and the mounting frame part 27, 28 relative to one another, in particular as viewed in the direction of travel F, the spatial volume RV of the ski winter sports device 1, in particular the overall height GH and the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1, can be reduced in comparison with the operating state (cf. FIGS. 3, 6 with 5, 8).

As shown in FIGS. 10, 12 and 13, in the operating condition the angle β between the third or fourth component 37, 39 of the parallelogram guide 34, in particular its long leg L, and the associated mounting frame part 27, 28, in particular to its frame members 29, 30, is unchangeable.

On the other hand, in the transport state (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8), the angle β between the third and fourth components 37, 38, in particular their long leg L, and the associated mounting frame part 27, 28, in particular to its frame members 29, 30, is changeable.

Thus, in the operating condition, the third and fourth components 37, 38, or their long legs L, enclose the angle β of 120 degrees with the associated mounting frame part 27, 28 (cf. FIGS. 10, 12 and 13).

In the transport state, however, the third or fourth component 37, 38 or its long leg L encloses an angle β of 180 degrees with the associated mounting frame part 27, 28 (cf. FIGS. 5 and 8).

Thus, in the transport state, in order to reduce the volume of space RV of the ski winter sports device 1, the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 are rotatably connected to the mounting frame parts 27, 28.

The rotational point 45 at the second end of the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 and the rotational point 32 of the mounting frame parts 27, 28, in particular the rotational point 32 of the frame members 29, 30, form a swivel joint.

In the transport state—as shown in FIGS. 5 and 8—the third and fourth components 37, 38 are folded in line or along a direction with the mounting frame part 27, 28, so that the long leg L of the third and fourth components 37, 38 is arranged in extension of the mounting frame part 27, 28. As a result, the spatial volume RV, in particular the overall height GH and the overall length GL, of the ski winter sports device 1 can be reduced compared to the operating state (compare FIGS. 5 and 8 with FIGS. 3 and 6).

The third and fourth components 37, 38 and the mounting frame part 27, 28 are configured to be foldable about a horizontal axis G4, which is oriented transversely to the direction of travel F.

As in FIGS. 1 to 9 and 14, which represent a further spatial view of the ski winter sports device 1 of FIG. 1, shown, the parallelogram guide 34 has a fifth component 47. The rear ends of the two mounting frame parts 27, 28, with respect to the direction of travel F of the ski winter sports device 1, are connected to the fifth component 47 in an articulated manner.

The fifth component 47 has two legs that are inclined with respect to each other, in particular forming a V-shape.

A connection means 51 for connecting the fifth component 47 to the frame means 3 or to the first connecting means 5 is arranged centrally on the fifth component 47, in particular at the transition from one leg of the V-shape to the other leg. In the present case, the fifth component 47 is connected to the frame means 3.

The fifth component 47 also has at each of its ends a pivot point 48, 49, formable into a swivel joint, whose axis of rotation H is oriented in the direction of travel F and is inclined toward the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

Furthermore, the fifth component 47 centrally has a pivot point 50 for a connection means 51, the axis of rotation H of which is also oriented in the direction of travel F and is inclined towards the surface of the earth, similar to a rear spoiler of a racing car.

FIGS. 9 and 14 show that the standing means 2 has a connection means 51, which has been omitted from the other figures for clarity.

The connection means 51 connects the fifth component 47 of the parallelogram guide 34 to the frame means 3.

The connection means 51 has a variable length or is configured to be telescopic.

In addition, the connection means 51 has an energy storage 52, wherein the energy storage 52 and the telescoping formation are arranged in a line.

As FIGS. 9 and 14 show, the connection means 51 can be attached to the frame means 3 in a toolless, non-destructively releasable manner via a quick-connection means (not shown).

Here, a first end 53 of the connection means 51 receives the quick-connection means (not shown), the connection means 51 having a passageway at its first end 53 through which the quick-connection means can be passed.

The frame components 17 of the frame means 3 also have a corresponding feedthrough, so that the quick-connection means (not shown) can be inserted into said feedthroughs of the frame components 17 and the connection means 51 to connect them all together.

The feedthrough, formed as a bore, forms a fit with the quick-connection means (not shown), in particular a clearance fit or a transition fit.

Also, the connection means 51 has a second end 54 rotatably attached to a pivot point 50 of the fifth component 47 of the parallelogram guide 34 to form a swivel joint or a rigid connection.

Both the pivot point 50 and the second end 54 have each a feedthrough, formed as a bore, to receive a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means (not shown) connecting the connection means 51 and the fifth component 47.

The aforementioned feedthroughs and the quick-connection means, which is not shown, are adapted to one another in terms of shape and fit, in particular configured as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

As a result, the quick-connection means can be released at the first and/or second ends 53, 54 to quickly release the connection means 51 from the fifth component 47 of the parallelogram guide 34 and/or the frame means 3 in a toolless and non-destructive manner.

FIGS. 2, 9 to 11 show the standing means 2 of the ski winter sports device 1, as described above, on which a user can stand and on which a ski can be arranged.

The standing means 2 has two mounting frame parts 27, 28 for arranging a foot receiving means 55 and a ski A, B.

The two mounting frame parts 27, 28 each have two frame members 29, 30, to which a connecting component 31 for a foot receiving means 55 and for a ski A, B can be attached.

Here, each mounting frame part 27, 28 has a plurality of connecting components 31 fastenable to frame members 29, 30 and to a ski A, B and to a foot receiving means 55.

Each connecting component 31 has a T-section formed by two flanges.

A ski A, B or a foot receiving means 55 is fastenable to one flange of the T-section, which is centered at the end of the other flange and transverse to the other flange.

Frame members 29, 30 are attached to the other flange of the T-section, the end of which is located on the one flange.

Each frame member 29, 30 is formed from a sheet of metal whose width and length are much greater than its thickness, each frame member 29, 30 being created by a stamping process, a laser cutting process, a milling process, and/or a cutting process.

Furthermore, as FIGS. 2, 9 to 11 show, the frame members 29, 30 are rotatably arranged on the third and fourth components 37, 38, respectively, of the parallelogram guide 34 of the standing means 2.

The parallelogram guide 34 synchronizes the inclination of the mounting frame parts 27, 28 and thus optional associated skis A, B transverse to the direction of travel F.

As can be seen in particular in FIGS. 2, 9 to 11, each mounting frame part 27, 28 has a front end and a rear end with respect to the direction of travel F of the ski winter sports device 1.

Each mounting frame part 27, 28, in particular its frame members 29, 30, has a rotational point 32 at the front end, which can be formed into a swivel joint. The third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 of the standing means 2 are rotatably arranged around the rotational point 32.

At the front end, a quick-connection point 33, formable into a swivel joint, is arranged to the parallelogram guide 34, in particular its third or fourth component 37, 38. In this way, with the aid of a quick-connection means 67B which can be fastened in a non-destructively releasable manner without tools, the relative movement of third and fourth components 37, 38 to the mounting frame part 27, 28 or to its frame members 29, 30 about the rotational point 32 of the mounting frame parts 27, 28 can be prevented.

The quick-connection point 33 is formed as a feedthrough through the frame members 29, 30, wherein the quick-connection point 33 is adapted in terms of shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or as a transition fit, to a quick-connection means 67B that can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructively releasable manner.

As already mentioned, each mounting frame part 27, 28 has two frame members 29, 30, between which connecting components 31, in particular their flanges, are arranged, to which a ski A, B and a foot receiving means 55 can be attached.

The two frame members 29, 30 are spaced from each other in such a way that between these two frame members 29, 30 connecting components 31 and a third or fourth component 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 can be arranged.

Formulated again in other words, the standing means 2 has two mounting frame parts 27, 28, in particular a first 27 and a second mounting frame part 28, each with two frame members 29, 30, between which in each case a plurality of connecting components 31 and a third or fourth component 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 are arranged (cf. FIGS. 2, 9 to 11). A ski A, B and a foot receiving means 55 can be attached to each connecting component 31.

Furthermore, as almost all figures show, the mounting frame parts 29, 30 are oriented in the same way, in particular parallel to each other.

A ski A, B and a foot receiving means 55 and a third or fourth component 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 can be attached to each mounting frame part 27, 28, as already mentioned several times, so that a ski A, B is available for each foot of a user.

Also, as shown only in FIG. 15, which is a schematic spatial view of a foot receiving means 55, the standing means 2 has a foot receiving means 55 that receives a shoe of a user.

In this case, the foot receiving means 55 has a base member 56 which is fixed to a connecting component 31 of the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28 and on which the sole of a shoe of a user can be placed.

The base member 56 is formed as a plate and with protrusions 68 to increase friction between the sole of a shoe and the base member 56.

Further, the foot receiving means 55 has a retaining means 57 attached to a connecting component 31 of the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28, which at least partially prevents removal of a shoe of a user through an opening 58 between the retaining means 57 and the base member 56 of the foot receiving means 55.

As shown in FIG. 15, the retaining means 57 is U-section-shaped, with one of the two opposing flanges 69 of the U-section-shaped retaining means 57 being attached to the base member 56 of the foot receiving means 55 and/or to the connecting component 31 of the corresponding mounting frame part 27, 28.

The retaining means 57 has a guide 59 along which one of the two opposing flanges 70 of the U-section-shaped retaining means 57 is slidably arranged to adjust the distance between the flange 70 and the base member 56 and/or the position (regarding the inclination of the flange 70) in the direction of travel F to the size and shape of a shoe of a user.

As FIGS. 1, 3 and 6, 9 and 14 show, the ski winter sports device 1 is configured such that the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 together have an upside-down V-shaped configuration when in the operating state.

Also, in the operating state, the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 are configured to be rotationally rigid with respect to each other about a horizontal axis G3, which is aligned transversely to the direction of travel F.

Furthermore, the ski winter sports device 1 is configured in such a way that the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 remain rotatably connected to each other after a quick-connection means 67C of a second connecting means 60 has been released without tools or destruction, so that the ski winter sports device 1 can be transferred from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the holding means 4 relative to the frame means 3 (cf. FIGS. 3 to 8).

Also, the ski winter sports device 1 is configured such that the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 are rotationally rigidly connected to each other after the tool-less and releasable installation of a quick-connection means 67C of a second connecting means 60, so that it is not possible to transfer from the operating state to the transport state and vice versa by moving the frame means 3 relative to the holding means 4.

FIG. 16 shows an enlarged, spatial view of the ski winter sports device of FIG. 1, while FIG. 17 shows a side view of the ski winter sports device 1 of FIG. 1 in an operating state, identical to FIG. 3.

For simplicity and brevity, both FIGS. 16 and 17 are described together below.

Thus, said figures show the frame means 3 of the ski winter sports device 1, as already described, which serves to connect with the holding means 4 and with the standing means 2 of a ski winter sports device 1.

Here, the frame means 3 has the frame component 17 with a first and a second end 18, 19, wherein the standing means 2 is arranged at the first end 18 and the holding means 4 is arranged at the second end 19.

The frame component 17 has a plurality of recesses 20, 21, 22 as a lightweight measure and is formed from a sheet of metal whose width and length are much greater than its thickness. Each frame component 17 has been created by means of a stamping process, a laser cutting process, a milling process and/or a cutting process.

The recesses 20, 21, 22 have an angular shape and are in the form of a honeycomb structure.

The first end 18 has a pivot point 23 to which the first connecting means 5 of the ski winter sports device 1 is rotatably attached, and which is formable into a swivel joint.

At this pivot point 23, the frame component 17 is pivotally connected to the first pivot point 7 of the first connecting elements 6 of the first connecting means 5 to form a swivel joint.

Further, the frame component 17 has a first junction 24 to the first connecting means 5 at the first end 18 to prevent relative movement of the frame means 3 and the first connecting elements 6 of the first connecting means 5 about the pivot point 23 with the aid of a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67A.

The second end 19 also has a rotational point 25 to which the holding means 4 of the ski winter sports device 1 is rotatably attached.

The frame component 17 further has a second junction 26 to the holding means 4 at the second end 19 to prevent relative movement of the frame means 3 and the holding means 4 about the rotational point 25 with the aid of a tool-less, non-destructively releasably fastenable quick-connection means 67C,

In this case, the rotational point 25 and the second junction 26 are spaced apart from one another, the second junction 26 being adapted to a quick-connection means 67C, which can be fastened in a toolless, non-destructively releasable manner, in terms of shape and fit, in particular configured as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

As can be seen in, for example, FIGS. 6 to 8, the frame means 3 has—strictly speaking—two frame components 17 which are spaced apart from one another in order to receive therebetween a third connecting element 61 (cf. FIG. 16) for connection to the holding means 4 and the first connecting means 5 which connects the frame means 3 to the standing means 2 so as to be movable relative to one another.

As indicated above, the ski winter sports device 1 has a second connecting means 60 for attaching the holding means 4 to the frame means 3.

The second connecting means 60 is configured to quickly allow and quickly stop pivoting of the frame means 3 and the holding means 2.

The second connecting means 60 comprises the third connecting element 61 for connecting the frame means 3 to the holding means 2, wherein the third connecting element 61 is arranged between two frame components 17 of the frame means 3 (cf. FIGS. 16 and 6 to 8).

The third connecting element 61 is also hinged to the frame means 3.

Also, the third connecting element 61 has a pivot point 62, in particular formed as a feedthrough, about which the holding means 4 is rotatably attached to the frame means 3, in particular in the transport state.

The pivot point 62 is configured for a bolt or screw, wherein the pivot point 62 and the rotational point 25 of the second end 19 of the frame components 17 of the frame means 3 form a swivel joint.

Furthermore, FIG. 16 in particular shows that the third connecting element 61 comprises a quick-connection point 63, in particular formed as a feedthrough and/or formable into a swivel joint, in order to prevent the relative rotational movement of the holding means 4 to the frame means 3 about the pivot point 62 with the aid of the quick-connection means 67C, which can be fastened without tools and in a non-destructively releasable manner.

The quick-connection point 63 and the second junction 26 at the second end 19 of the frame component 17, together with the pivot point 62 and the rotational point 25, form a lockable and releasable swivel joint.

In this case, the quick-connection point 63 is adapted to a toolless quick-connection means 67C that can be fastened in a non-destructively releasable manner with respect to shape and fit, in particular formed as a clearance fit or as a transition fit.

Further, the pivot point 62 and the quick-connection point 63 are spaced apart so that relative rotation can be prevented by the holding means 4 and the frame means 3.

In the operating state, the frame means 3 and the third connecting element 61 are connected positively and/or non-positively, in particular with the aid of the quick-connection means 67C.

As shown in particular in FIGS. 16 and 17, the holding means 4 has a head tube element 64 for receiving a steerer tube of a steering fork 65.

The head tube element 64 allows relative rotation of the steerer tube and frame means 2 to achieve a change in direction for a ski C on the holding means 4 with the aid of a rotation of the steering fork 65.

Furthermore, as just mentioned, the holding means 4 for holding has a handlebar 66 and a steering fork 65, in particular a bicycle fork.

The holding means 4 and the frame means 3 are configured in such a way that the handlebar 66 can be rotated relative to the frame means 3 so that the direction of a ski C on the holding means 2 can be changed in its direction.

As already mentioned several times, the ski winter sports device 1 has several quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C for toolless, non-destructive and releasable mounting of means and/or elements and is configured to quickly and non-destructively release the holding means 4 from the frame means 3 and the standing means 2 from the frame means 3 and the parallelogram guide 34 from the mounting frame parts 27, 28 as well as to quickly connect them in order to transfer the ski winter sports device 1 from the transport state to the operating state or vice versa.

In this case, the quick-connection means 67A is configured to connect the first connecting elements 6 of the first connecting means 5 to the frame means 3 in a toolless, non-destructive and releasably fastenable manner, whereas the quick-connection means 67C is configured to connect the frame means 3, in particular its frame components 17, to a third connecting element 61 of the second connecting means 60 in a toolless, non-destructive and releasably fastenable manner.

In addition, the quick-connection means 67B is configured to connect the third and fourth components 37, 38 of the parallelogram guide 34 to the mounting frame parts 27, 28 in a toolless, non-destructive and releasably fastenable manner.

Although not evident from the figures, the quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C are configured as plug-in pins, in particular as plug-in pins with a safety device to prevent them from being pulled out.

In this case, the quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C, which are configured as plug-in pins, have a hole at their first end for a split pin, in particular for a folding pin or for a spring split pin, transverse to the axial direction thereof. At their second end they have a grip part for gripping and guiding.

Alternatively, it is possible for all three quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C to have different designs.

For example, each quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C may also include a snap lock formed similar to a carabiner that receives or secures a plug-in element having a shape similar to a screw and formed on a means or element.

Also, each quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C may be formed as a snap lock comprising a strap and a clamping lever, wherein the snap lock connects a means, part or element to another means, part or element in a force-locking and/or form-locking manner.

Generally, each quick-connection means 67A, 67B, 67C and the junctions and quick-connection points have a fit, particularly a clearance fit or a transition fit.

Finally, it should be noted that a pivot point and/or rotational point is configured as a feedthrough, wherein the swivel joint formed by these is configured to be lockable and/or releasable.

The swivel joint or the swivel joint formed by a pivot point and/or by a rotational point, in which one component is relatively rotatable with respect to another component, is configured as a plain bearing. This seems most suitable for temperatures around freezing point.

In summary, it can be stated for FIGS. 1 to 17 that in the transport state, the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1 is at least 30% less than in the operating state.

Also, the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1 in the operating state and viewed in the direction of travel F is formed by the distance from the foremost end of the holding means 4 with steering fork 65 to the rearmost end of the standing means 2, in particular to the rear end of the mounting frame parts 27, 28.

In the transport state, on the other hand, the overall length GL of the ski winter sports device 1 and viewed in the direction of travel F is formed by the distance from the upper end 15 of the tilting member 14 of the standing means 2 to the rearmost end of the standing means 2, in particular to the rear end of the mounting frame parts 27, 28.

Furthermore, it is shown in FIGS. 1 to 17 that in the transport state, the overall height GH of the ski winter sports device 1 is at least 30% less than in the operating state.

The overall height GH of the ski winter sports device 1 is formed by the distance from the highest end of the holding means 4 to the mounting frame parts 27, 28 when viewed transversely to the direction of travel F in the operating state.

In the transport state, the overall height of the ski winter sports device 1, viewed transversely to the direction of travel F, is formed by the distance from the highest end of the holding means 4 to the mounting frame parts 27, 28.

Furthermore, it should be mentioned that the frame means 3 may comprise a carrying means for carrying by hand and/or for hanging on a seat of a ski lift (not shown).

Thus, FIGS. 1 to 17 show a ski winter sports device 1 on which three skis A, B, C can be arranged, wherein the three skis A, B, C can be arranged relative to one another in a manner similar to the wheels of a tricycle and the ski C of the holding means 4 can be arranged in front of the two skis A, B of the standing means 2 in the direction of travel F.

The ski C of the holding means 4, viewed transversely to the direction of travel F of the ski winter sports device 1, can be arranged between two skis A, B of the standing means 2, wherein the first mounting frame part 27 and the second mounting frame part 28 and thus the two skis A, B being arranged hip-width apart.
