Description with protection claims
Any formable body made of flexible material The innovation relates to any formable body made of flexible material, which consists of at least one part and is provided with at least one preferably continuous cavity, in particular a hose or tube made of flexible material.

Elastically deformed bodies tend to be deformed to return to the starting position, whereby the internal forces created in the material of the body are balanced out again or dismantled.

Arrangements are known in which a rigid body accordingly any desired shape is formed and then covered with an elastic body. The rigid one In this case, the body alone is actually the load-bearing element, while the elastic cover can consist of several layers and has to perform completely different tasks.

The disadvantage here is that for the production of the load-bearing element Rigid material requires special tools. Also need to handle these tools partially Special knowledge and a certain skill of the person performing the work must be available.

In the case of larger, bulky and rigid bodies, larger means of transport are required for transport to the location. In addition, the application of the elastic covers, especially at the junctures of the bulky bodies, is quite complicated and is associated with certain dexterity that nichi: everyone given are.

The task of the innovation is to provide any formable body made of flexible material in the deformed state with a bearing element is provided in such a way that the shape once formed is retained. This attaching the load-bearing element should be done with the simplest possible means and in the simplest possible way in such a way that the execution is carried out even by laypeople can be.

! In a more detailed development of the innovation, this takes place in that ■ a load-bearing element in the cavity of the body is foamed is arranged with rigid foam. Another embodiment consists in forming this load-bearing element from cast resin. With the simplest tools it is possible according to the innovation, to stabilize a shape formed with a flexible hose or tube by filling it with a hardenable substance.

Further details of the innovation emerge from the following described and illustrated in the drawings embodiments. It shows

Fig. 1 shows the subject matter of the invention before and after deformation FIG. 2 according to FIG. 1 with an insertable part and FIG. 3 according to FIG. 2 with rigid and flexible foam

In Fig.1 a body 1 is formed with a cavity 5 around the To stabilize the shape, after the deformation provided with a hardenable material as a load-bearing element 2. The main one Element can be formed on the one hand by foaming with rigid foam and on the other hand by pouring resin. In Fig.2 the body 1 can be seen with the cavity 5 in which the profiled, flexible part 3 is arranged to be insertable. This insertable part 3 has spike-like on the outer circumference Elevations 6 and a continuous hollow space 7 on. The load-bearing element is placed between the insertable part 3 and the outer body 1, while the inner cavity 7 remains free.

In Figure 3 an arrangement according to Figure 2 can be seen, in which in the Cavity of the insertable part 3 a load-bearing element by foaming with rigid foam and in the cavity between the insertable Part 3 and the outer body of soft foam is arranged.

Claims (5)

The application of the subject of the innovation is very diverse and easy to use. For this purpose, normal garden hoses can be used, which are deformed according to a desired shape and then provided with a load-bearing element and stabilized by foaming or pouring the cavities. In this way, chair frames or even play equipment for the single playground can be produced. Each individual can even develop building systems according to their own ideas, which can then be easily put together. The innovation is not limited to the explanations described, but can be modified by making appropriate changes Ί of the individual). ) Features claims for protection 1.
