Abstract

Surfboard for water sports in which torsion boxes (12) are arranged between a laminated top chord (10) and bottom chord (11). The torsion boxes have a lateral edge area (12a) which is directed to the outside and leads in each case into a hollow, circular cross-sectional body (13), and the latter in each case encloses a tube (14) filled with compressed air. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Surfbord, wie es im Wassersport allgemein bekannt ist. Diese Geräte sind - insbesondere diejenigen, die aus Faserverbundwerkstoff gefertigt sind. - mit dem Nachteil behaftet,, daß ihre Randbereiche sehr stark einer Beschädigung ausgesetzt sind.The invention relates to a surfboard as is generally known in water sports. These devices are - especially those that are made of fiber composite material. - Affected with the disadvantage, that their edge areas are very exposed to damage.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diesen Mangel zu beheben und ein Surfbord zu schaffen, das sehr elastische Surfbordkanten besitzt.The present invention has for its object to remedy this deficiency and to create a surfboard that has very elastic surfboard edges.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die in den Ansprüchen niedergelegten Maßnahmen in einfacher. und zuverlässiger Weise gelöst. In der nachfolgenden Beschreibung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung beschrieben und in der Zeichnung erläutert. Die einzige Figur der Zeichnung zeigt in schematischer Darstellung einen Querschnitt durch das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel, das außer dem genannten Vorteil noch den weiteren Vorteil aufweist, daß durch die Vermeidung eines Vollschaumkernes eine wesentlich geringere Masse zur Fertigung erforderlich ist, was sich auch auf die Herstellungskosten auswirkt.This task is made easier by the measures set out in the claims. and solved reliably. An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described in the following description and explained in the drawing. The single figure of the drawing shows a schematic representation of a cross section through the described embodiment, which, in addition to the advantage mentioned, has the further advantage that a substantially lower mass is required for production by avoiding a solid foam core, which also affects the manufacturing costs.

Das vorgeschlagene Surfbord weist einen Obergurt 10 und einen Untergurt 11 auf, die vorzugsweise aus einem mäßig kettverstärktem Gewebe gebildet werden. Diese Gurte geben der Gesamtkonstruktion die erforderliche Biegefestigkeit und -steifigkeit. Um nun dem Gerät auch eine ausreichende Torsionssteifigkeit zu vermitteln und außerdem eine schubfeste Verbindung zwischen den Gurten zu erhalten, sind sogenannte Torsionskästen 12 vorgesehen. Der seitliche Kantenbereich 12a dieser Kästen wird als hohlkreisförmiger Querschnittskörper 13 ausgebildet und wird aus einem Laminat aus Chemiefaser zum Beispiel Poyester hergestellt. Während alle anderen Laminatanteile mit Strukturharz, d.h. mit einem Harz hoher Steifigkeit und mäßiger Bruchdehnung laminiert sind, ist der Kantenbereich mit.einem flexiblen Harz gefertigt. Dieser kreisförmige Querschnittskörper 13 wird durch einen mit Druckluft gefüllten Schlauch versehen. Die dadurch auftretende stabilisierende Wirkung des Schlauches führt dazu, daß der.in diesem Bereich kreisförmig geformte Torsionskasten 12 voll. zur Schubübertragung beiträgt. Durch diese Ausgestaltung - also elastische, runde Kante und in diesem Bereich kreisförmig geformter Torsionskasten - wird ein Maximum an Flexibilität erreicht. Um den erforderlichen Auftrieb auch bei beschädigtem Surfbord sicherzustellen, wird weiterhin vorgeschlagen, in die Kammern der Torsionskästen 12 sogenannte Kentersäcke - wie sie bei Wildwasserbooten bekannt sind - einzubringen.The proposed surfboard has an upper chord 10 and a lower chord 11, which are preferably formed from a moderately warp-reinforced fabric. These belts give the overall construction the required flexural strength and rigidity. So-called torsions are used to impart sufficient torsional rigidity to the device and also to maintain a shear-resistant connection between the belts boxes 12 provided. The lateral edge region 12a of these boxes is designed as a hollow circular cross-sectional body 13 and is made from a laminate of chemical fiber, for example polyester. While all other laminate parts are laminated with structural resin, ie with a resin with high rigidity and moderate elongation at break, the edge area is made with a flexible resin. This circular cross-sectional body 13 is provided with a hose filled with compressed air. The resulting stabilizing effect of the hose leads to the fact that the torsion box 12, which is circular in shape in this area, becomes full. contributes to thrust transmission. This configuration - that is, elastic, round edge and torsion box shaped in this area in a circular manner - achieves maximum flexibility. In order to ensure the necessary buoyancy even when the surfboard is damaged, it is also proposed to insert 12 capsized sacks into the chambers of the torsion boxes, as are known in whitewater boats.

Die Fertigung des vorgeschlagenen Surfbords erfolgt in 2 Halbschalen, wobei die Trennebene horizontal verläuft. In die beiden Halbschalen werden die Gurte 10, 11 laminiert. Die Fertigung der Torsionskästen 13 erfolgt auf aufblasbare elastische Kerne, welche nach dem Aushärten der Reaktionsmasse gefaltet und entformt werden. Nach dem Auflegen der Torsionskästen 13 auf die Druckkerne werden Kerne mit kreisförmigem Querschnitt - oder nahezu kreisförmigem Querschnitt - auf die Torsionskastenkerne angelegt und über diese Konstruktion das Chemiefaserlaminat aufgetragen.The proposed surfboard is manufactured in 2 half-shells, with the parting plane running horizontally. The straps 10, 11 are laminated in the two half-shells. The torsion boxes 13 are manufactured on inflatable elastic cores, which are folded and demolded after the reaction mass has hardened. After the torsion boxes 13 have been placed on the pressure cores, cores with a circular cross section - or almost circular cross section - are placed on the torsion box cores and the chemical fiber laminate is applied via this construction.

Anschließend werden die Kerne in die untere Formschale eingelegt, die obere Formschale aufgelegt und beide Formhälften miteinander verspannt und die Drucksäcke gefüllt. Daran schließt sich dann der Aushärtevorgang des Surfborda an.The cores are then placed in the lower mold shell, the upper mold shell is placed on top and the two mold halves are clamped together and the pressure sacks are filled. This is followed by the curing process of the surf board.
