1、Designation: F939 12Standard Practice forSelection of Release Torque Values for Alpine Ski Bindings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F939; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、.Anumber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONAdhering to these guidelines may help to reduce the risk of injuries resulting from improper releasetorque selection. However, skiing i

3、nvolves inherent risks. Injury can result from simply falling down,impact with another object, or from many other actions. Many injuries are unrelated to bindingrelease/retention characteristics. Furthermore, even a properly adjusted binding cannot release underall injury-producing loads or retain a

4、t all times when retention is desired. Therefore, it is to be clearlyunderstood that compliance with these guidelines in no way guarantees that injury can be prevented.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides procedures for the selection ofrelease torque values for Alpine ski/boot/bindings systems.These p

5、rocedures may be used by ski binding manufacturers intheir instructions for installation and use and by ski shops forthe adjustment of already mounted ski bindings.1.2 This practice is applicable to releasableAlpine ski/boot/binding systems.1.3 Release torque values selected using this practice mayn

6、ot be appropriate for circumstances in which:1.3.1 The skier carries an object that significantly increasesthe skiers effective body weight,1.3.2 The skier grasps or in some manner controls an objectsuch as a sled, or1.3.3 The skier encounters exceptional snow or terrainconditions not commonly found

7、 on developed ski slopes.1.4 This practice may be inappropriate for non-mechanicalbindings or bindings used with boots that reach more than halfway up the lower leg.1.5 Release torque values outside the recommendations ofthis practice may increase the risk of injury to the skier.However, skiers who

8、are informed of this potential risk mayrequest such settings and have them provided, subject to anyguidelines and limitations specified by the binding manufac-turer.1.6 These values refer to recommended release torque forinitial adjustment of a ski binding and subsequent readjustmentof the binding d

9、uring routine maintenance or following asuspected malfunction. However, these values are not intendedto apply to the condition of the equipment at any time after itis put into use.1.6.1 For information concerning applicable tolerances tobe used for the adjustment and inspection of releasable Alpines

23、F1061.5. Procedures5.1 A range of twist release torque values (Mz) based on themass of the skier is calculated from the equations given in5.1.1-5.1.3.5.1.1 Upper Limit for Twist, Mzin N-m is determined bythe following equations:5.1.1.1 If the mass of the skier is less than 70 kg:Mz5 0.84 ms1 4 (1)5.

24、1.1.2 If the mass of the skier is greater than or equal to 70kg:Mz5 0.69 ms1 15 (2)where:ms= the mass of the skier in kg.5.1.2 Lower Value for Twist, Mz, in N-m is determined bythe following equations:5.1.2.1 If the mass of the skier is less than 75 kg:Mz5 0.71 ms(3)5.1.2.2 If the mass of the skier

25、is greater than or equal to 75kg:Mz5 0.59 ms1 9 (4)where:ms= is the mass of the skier in kg.5.1.3 Ski binding manufacturers should not recommendrelease torque values higher than the upper limit of this rangebut may recommend settings below the lower limit. Manufac-turers may provide additional infor

26、mation to guide the installerand user in the selection of such values.5.2 If the mass of the skier is greater than the maximumrecommended mass for his or her height (h), use release torquevalues corresponding to his or her maximum recommendedmass, mr max, which is given by the following equation:mr

27、max5 100h 2 1! (5)for h 1.5 m,where:h = s the height of the skier in m.5.3 The recommended release torque is adjusted for skiertype, age, and other factors as follows:5.3.1 The skier type adjustment for normal settings is (10to 20) % for I, 0 % for II, and + (10 to 20) % for III or 3 Nm,whichever is

28、 greater. The adjustment for discretionary settingsshould be (10 to 20) % less than the Type I setting for ()I and(10 to 20) % greater than the Type III setting for III(+), or 3N-m, whichever is greater.5.3.2 The age adjustment for skiers age 9 years and youngeror 50 years and older is (10 to 20) %

29、or 3 Nm, whichever isgreater.5.4 The release torque in forward lean, My, is calculated interms of the skier type and age adjusted value of Myin N-m bythe following equation:My5 Mz3.6 1 0.0065 N21m21Mz!

If a calculatoris not used or its use is not required by the b

When calculating theupper and lower limits for the range of twist release torquevalues (Mz) for use in Table X1.1, the

32、Mz value to be used willreflect any adjustments for skier type as well as age.5.6 Appendix X1.3.1 provides an example of informationfor skiers dissatisfied with the release/retention performance oftheir ski/boot/binding system.6.
