Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of snow sliding sports practiced using at least one board, such as alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, surfing and their derivatives. More specifically, it targets a new structure integrating internal reinforcements intended to serve as a stiffener, and to improve the transmission of efforts of the skier's foot towards the edges.
  • the pressure is generally maximum at level of the skate area, and more particularly below the binding.
  • the pressure is lower, but nevertheless existing at the level of the lines of front and rear contact, corresponding to the limits of the contact surface between the sole and snow.
  • One of the objectives of the invention is to allow optimal attachment to the entire length of the ski in order to improve driving precision.
  • document FR 2 779 658 presents a means of strengthening a gliding board intended to increase its lifespan. This way particular consists of a longitudinal blade crossing the core in its height.
  • the problem which the invention therefore proposes to solve is the transmission effective support exerted by the skier towards the sole of the board, so that the entire length of the edge is under pressure sufficient to ensure optimal grip on snow.
  • Such a board is characterized in that it includes a plate located at the level of the skate area, and able to move in the direction of the lower assembly under the pressure exerted by the user's foot, and at least one arm rigid longitudinal, housed inside the structure of the board, crossing at less the thickness of the core, the end of the arm furthest from the pad area bearing on the underside of the core, on the lower assembly of the board, the end of the arm closest to the skate area bearing under the plate, near the feet of the user, so that the forces exercised by the user on the upper surface of the board at the area board skate are directly transmitted to the bottom surface of the board by the end of the arm oriented towards the lower assembly of the board.
  • the invention consists in equipping the board with a rigid element intended to serve as a transmission element from the mounting area of the binding towards the areas where the pressure is minimum, on the traditional boards.
  • the characteristic arm provides direct mechanical continuity between the plate located at the level of the pad area on which the attachment, and the front and / or rear areas of the sole of the board. Arms can be embedded inside the core, or even pass entirely through the nucleus, therefore its upper and lower surfaces.
  • each arm comprises, at least one of its ends, a support pad intended to distribute the forces transmitted by the arm.
  • the arm can be equipped with an element intended to improve the capture efforts exerted by the skier, and can also be equipped with an element located at the lower end of the arm, intended to distribute the forces transmitted by this arm over a area greater than that of the arm section proper.
  • the board according to the invention may have an arm located at the front of the skate area, and oriented in the axis longitudinal of the board, said arm being equipped at its furthest end of the skate area, of a transverse buffer intended to distribute the forces transmitted by the arm over a substantial part of the width of the board.
  • the arm and the tampon characteristics have a general T shape, the bar of which rests on the sole or more generally on the lower assembly, while the foot of the T comes near the ski skating area.
  • the board may include a second arm similar geometry located at the back of the skate area.
  • the board may have two arms substantially parallel, located at the front of the skate area, each arm being positioned on each edge of the board.
  • the mechanical transmission takes place so differentiated according to whether the supports are exerted on the internal or external edge, which makes the support more effective on the edge concerned.
  • the board may include a second pair parallel arms, transversely offset and located at the rear of the skate area.
  • the plate is located either above the upper assembly of the board, or inside a housing provided for this purpose in the upper assembly of the board.
  • the plate can also be located either between the upper assembly and the nucleus, either still inside the nucleus, outcropping at the top, or being totally drowned.
  • the rigid plate may comprise at minus a layer of viscoelastic or elastic material, placed on one of its faces, so as to allow displacement by crushing of the layer elastic.
  • the arms located at the front and at the rear can be part of a single piece extending under the plate.
  • the arms form a portico consisting of two front parts and rear resting on the lower assembly and a central part in the form of a bridge on which the rigid plate rests. Under the impulse force of the skier's feet the rigid plate moves downward by pressing on the bridge, which has the effect to orient this force on each of the arms, forward and backward.
  • the two arms located at the front and / or at the rear can cross, so as to stiffen the board in torsion in very localized areas.
  • the arms can be covered a layer of elastic or visco-elastic material giving them a certain ability to move relative to the nucleus they pass through.
  • the arms can also be housed inside sheaths to allow the sliding.
  • the arms may have an axis of revolution giving them isotropic mechanical properties, identical in any direction oriented perpendicular to the direction of the arm.
  • the arms have anisotropic mechanical properties conferred by a section whose geometry favors mechanical resistance in a particular direction.
  • the arm has resistance important to the forces transmitted perpendicular to the gliding sole, but does not does not penalize the lateral deformation of the board because it does not exert resistance important in these directions parallel to the sliding sole and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the board.
  • the arms can be made of a wide variety of materials such as metal tubes, aluminum alloy or other, rigid steel rods, or even strings of glass or carbon fibers, metal profiles or in composite material, or even in glass, carbon or fibers aramids.
  • Figure 1 is a top view of a ski according to the invention, in which the characteristic elements appear in dotted lines.
  • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view at the level of the pad area II - II of the ski of figure 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view along the reference plane III-III of FIG. 1.

  • a ski (1) includes in known manner, a skid zone (2) corresponding substantially to the most close to skiing.
  • This skate area (2) is extended at the back by a heel area (3), and at the front, by a spatula area (4).
  • Such a board comprises in known manner a upper assembly (6) consisting of the upper protective layer (7) forming decoration support as well as an upper reinforcement (8), generally made of fabric coated glass fiber.
  • a ski also comprises in known manner a lower assembly (10) including the sliding sole (11) proper forming the underside of the ski, and bordered laterally by metal edges (12).
  • This lower set (10) optionally includes a lower reinforcement (13), most often produced also in coated glass fiber fabric.
  • the ski comprises between the upper assembly (6) and the assembly lower (10), a core (15) of injected polyurethane, bordered laterally by edges (16) which can equip all or part of the height of the board.
  • the internal structure of the board comprises a or several arms (20-23) intended to transmit the forces exerted by the skier, from the upper face (9) of the ski at the level of the shoe (2), to the sole (11) ski, at the tip and / or heel areas.
  • the ski comprises two pairs (20, 21; 22, 23) of arms as well as an internal plate (25). More specifically, a first pair of two parallel arms (20, 21) is arranged in before the skate area (2). Each of the arms (20, 21) of the front pair has its rear end (30, 31) coming into contact with the internal plate (25).
  • the internal plate (25) is covered on its faces upper and lower of an elastic band (27, 28) intended to allow a slight relative movement of the plate (25) in the vertical direction.
  • These elastic bands (27, 28) have a thickness of 0.1 to 3 millimeters.
  • the internal plate (25) is placed in the core manufacturing mold with the different arms (20, 21; 22, 23). Then after closing this mold, injecting the polyurethane to form the core (15) thus including, embedded in its structure, the plate (25) and the arms (20 - 23). This core is then placed, conventionally, in the mold for manufacturing the board, between the lower (10) and upper (6) assemblies.
  • the elastic band (27) disposed above of the internal plate (25) comes directly into contact with the reinforcing layer upper (8), so as to be able to receive the forces exerted by the skier at only through the thickness of the upper assembly (6).
  • the two arms (20, 21) of the front pair are equipped, at their end front, pads or buffer elements (40, 41) intended to distribute the transmitted forces by the arms (20, 21) at an area much greater than the section arms (20, 21), so as to prevent these arms (20, 21) from coming damage the lower reinforcement element (13) of the lower assembly (10).
  • the pads or the front ends (40, 41) of the front arms (20, 21) are arranged approximately 100 millimeters from the front contact line, in the zone where the load is minimal on a traditional board.
  • the board according to the invention can be fitted with a second pair of arms (22, 23), located at the rear of the skate area (2), and also cooperating with the internal plate (25) by their ends (32, 33).
  • the precise orientation of the arms (20-23) can be more or less adapted in depending on the geometry of the ski itself.
  • the two arms come precisely in line with the edges (12), and adopt a geometry slightly divergent.
  • the internal plate (25) housed in the upper part of the core (15) receives, through the upper assembly (6), the mounting screws (36) fixation.
  • the pressure exerted on the edges (12) is relatively uniform, and in any case relatively distributed over the length of the edge, which allows good registration in the turn, and driving precision.
  • the plate (45) receiving the efforts of the skier is located above the upper face (9) of the ski.
  • the characteristic arm (46) crosses the upper assembly (6) of the ski to come into contact with the plate (45).
  • the mounting of the binding is then done directly on the plate characteristic (45) which is apparent.
  • This plate rests on an elastic band (47) itself in contact with the upper face (9) of the ski.
  • the ability to deformation of this elastic band (47) allows the plate (45) to move in vertical direction, and exerting stress on the characteristic arm (46).
  • the board includes a pair of characteristic arms (50), arranged on each side of the board, each extending from the front to the rear thereof, and forming a bridge (52) at the level of the plate (53).
  • the support forces on the plate (53) are then broken down into two forces directed towards the ends and distributed by the buffers at the front (54) and at the rear (55).
  • Figures 6 to 8 illustrate alternative embodiments of the plates and arms characteristics.
  • the plate (60) of Figure 6 cooperates at its front (61) and rear (62) ends with a central arm (63, 64) arranged in the axis longitudinal of the ski, and which comprises at its front end (65) (or rear (66) for the rear arm), a transverse bar (67) intended to exert support on almost width of the sole at the level where this bar is arranged.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates an embodiment in which the ski comprises two pairs of arms (71, 72, 73, 74) arranged at the front and at the rear of the plate characteristic (70).
  • the arms are associated, at the level of their opposite end to the plate (70), by a transverse bar (75, 76) allowing to ensure, like the bar (67) of Figure 6, a support on a part the width of the sole.
  • FIG. 8 illustrates another embodiment in which the board comprises two pairs of arms (81-84) located at the front and at the rear of the plate (80). Inside each pair, the arms are arranged crosswise so as to stiffen the front and rear areas of the board in torsion.
  • This embodiment is more particularly suitable for planks of slides of great width whose structure is not sufficiently rigid in torsion.
  • the crossed arrangement of the arms more particularly allows reinforcement of torsional stiffness.
  • the arm (20) can be arranged inside a tube (29) in which it can slide, so as to limit the friction between the arm (20) proper and the structure of the core (15).
  • the arm (20) can also be coated with a plastic material forming a sheath and able to deform during the slight movement of the arm inside the core.
