Safety arrangement for a snowboard brake 2000

Abstract

A snowboard braking assembly [ 10] having a support assembly/raiser-plate [ 140] with one of its sides a hinge member [ 140 a ] within. The center of the support [ 140] has a set of attachment [ 24] apertures [ 144] for the brake [ 10] to a snowboard [ 20]. Rotating within the hinge [ 140 a ] is a portion of a single irregular multiple-bent elongated lever arm member [ 90] forming four legs/sections. The first [ 90 a ], second [ 90 b ], and third legs [ 90 c ] form a substantial geometric irregular “U” shape. The fourth leg [ 90 d ] having a sufficiently upward orientation to the first [ 90 a ] and second [ 90 b ] legs, forming an irregular geometric “L to V” shape. The first leg [ 90 a ] having a lever arm opposite end [ 100], and the fourth leg [ 90 d ] terminating as a braking end [ 106]. The third leg [ 90 c ] of a length to extend outwards away from the edge of the snowboard [ 20]. The fourth leg [ 90 d ] of the lever arm [ 90] is of a length to extend downward too sufficiently lift one side of and drag below the snowboard [ 10]. About the second leg [ 90 b ] is a pre-stress torsion spring member [ 190] having a first spring leg [ 190 a ] of the torsion spring [ 190] upon the surface of the support member [ 140]. Furthermore a second spring leg [ 190 b ] about the elongated third leg [ 90 c ] or first leg [ 90 a ], respectfully, providing a constant angular force of the torsion spring [ 190] against the lever arm leg [ 90 c ] for braking.

I claim:  
     
         1 . A brake for snowboard and vehicles sliding on snow comprising: 
 a. a support member [ 140 ] of flat body of material consisting of a predetermined height and geometric shape, having a predetermined number of vertical centered apertures [ 144 ] and furthermore within one of said support member sides a support hinge member [ 140   a ] of a predetermined length, height and inside diameter, furthermore rotating within said hinge support [ 140   a ] a binding assembly [ 50 ], and    b. said binding assembly [ 50 ] consisting of a single irregular multiple bent elongated rod lever arm member [ 90 ] therefore having a predetermined number of legs-sections, length and diameter and furthermore about one leg of said lever arm [ 90 ] a torsion spring [ 190 ] and    c. furthermore said lever arm [ 90 ] having a first leg [ 90   a ] terminating to an opposite end [ 100 ] the other end to a second leg [ 90   b ] residing longitudinally within said support hinge member [ 140   a ] and also about said second leg [ 90   b ] said torsion spring [ 190 ] and furthermore a third leg [ 90   c ] communicating with said second leg [ 90   b ] and said first leg [ 90   a ], respectfully, forming a irregular “U” shape and communicating upon said third leg [ 90   c ], a torsion spring leg [ 190   b ] and    d. furthermore communicating with said third leg [ 90   c ] a fourth leg [ 90   d ] having its opposite end terminating as a braking end [ 106 ] and furthermore said third leg and said fourth leg [ 90   d ] forming a upward orientation within the same plane to said “U” shape [ 90   a ,  90   b ,  90   c ] and    e. whereby said torsion spring[ 190 ] pre-stressed condition [ 190 ,  190   b ] communicating with said elongated member [ 90 ] said third leg [ 90   c ] providing means of an outward angular mechanical transmission for braking.    
     
     
         2 . The brake of  claim 1  wherein said flat body is a rigid material.  
     
     
         3 . The brake of  claim 2  wherein is of a plastic, light aluminum or similar materials.  
     
     
         4 . The brake of  claim 1  wherein said lever arm is of a tubular material.  
     
     
         5 . The brake of  claim 4  wherein said tubular material is piano wire, harden wire or similar material.  
     
     
         6 . A mechanical brake transmission for vehicles sliding on snow comprising: 
 f. a support member [ 140 ] having a predetermined geometric shape and furthermore on its perimeter and within said support member a hinge member [ 140   a ] having a cylinder shaped cavity throughout of a predetermined length, width, and form, and said support [ 140 ] having a means for attachment [ 24 ] to said vehicle [ 20 ] and    g. furthermore residing within said hinge member [ 140   a ] a binding assembly [ 50 ] constituting of an irregular, bent elongated arbor member [ 90 ] and    h. whereas, said elongated member [ 90 ] having a three legs [ 90   a ,  90   b ,  90   c ], respectfully, forming a varying geometric irregular “U” shape [ 90 ] and    j. furthermore having a fourth leg [ 90   d ] of a predetermined raised orientation to said “U” shape [ 90 ] and    k. surrounding said second leg [ 90   b ] of said elongated member [ 90 ] a torsion spring member [ 190 ] and    l. furthermore, having a torsion springs leg member [ 90   b ] about and pre-pressuring one leg of said elongated members [ 90 ], and    m. whereby said pre-stress torsion spring [ 190 ] providing means for outward angular motion for elongated member [ 90 ] therefore a means of mechanical transmission for braking.
