Ski Bindings

Ok i'm doing a graphics assignment...it's like an industrial design thing where we have to design any product we lke n Inventor

I've chosen a ski binding, does anyone have sketche or plans of a binding and its components? Tere's like none on the internet :P
 
don't you have to design them yourself?

you should make bindings with rockets on them. so no one would have to use lifts. and also it would come with a book titled "how to get out of your tresspassing charges"
 
Here's the requirements

PROBLEM :

You are to draw a mechanical or engineering device of your own choice. The device must have at least 5 different

components. The device can be an existing product or one you have designed for a purpose.



Check with your teacher to ensure your choice is suitable.



Part A – Planning Due:

• Give a brief description of the mechanical device that

you are drawing

• Draw a neat pictorial sketch of the assembled

mechanical device

• Neatly sketch each component showing all

measurements

• Sketch and describe the process of making each

component. This will include a number of sketches for

each component. See Dovetail slide Fig 2. Use

comments to assist the process.



Part B – Drawings on CAD Due:

• Draw a 3D model of each component using Autodesk



Inventor

• Assemble each component to show the complete 3D model of the mechanical device. Printout required.

• Orthographic: Draw an orthographic projection of the assembled mechanical device. Subtitle each view and show most dimensions. Show an extra feature in the drawing eg., detailed view; auxiliary view etc.

• Show a sectional view and material list of the mechanical device.

• Display a rendered 3D Model. You may either render by hand or on computer.



Computer rendering must be

printed to a high quality. Consider Texture, Tone, Contrast, Colour and shadow.

• Use all AS1100 standards: Borders, Lines, Titles, Lettering, etc. Use correct printing sizes

• Create and print an Open in line for assembly: Position each 3D component in line.

• Animate the open and in line for assembly drawing and save as an animated file.



Drawings should include:

1. 3D model – Rendered

2. Orthographic views with extra feature – dimensioned and subtitled.

3. Sectional view and material list

4. Open and in line for assembly

5. Animated assembly drawing

 
ID is sweet. where do you go to school?

anyway, i think youll be SOL. theres no way those are gonna be just handed to you, or easily available. and even if they were, thered still be alot of blank spots. you could just bust out some calipers, and take a toe or heelpiece apart, and get all your dimensions that way.

however, it sounds like this is a fairly in depth project, so why not take it the little step further and design your own binding. use the opportunity to do a little research, improve the design, and showcase your ideas. that way, not only do you get your assignment done, but then, you also instantly upgrade from cloning someone elses work for practice, to having a possible portfolio quality piece for just a little extra effort.

 
um...Ferny Grove State High, QLD, Australia

We've got heaps of bindings at the ski shop i work at, but i don't want to really brake them open or anything, might get fired for that :P

I don't really know much about the binding system on skis other then if you fall hard they un-lock, so this will give me more expierence in the line of bindings and as you said if it's done well, would be nice in a folio :)
