Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a snow board on snow such as a ski, a monoski, a surf, or other. It relates more particularly to an improvement relating to a gliding board comprising a base, on which is fixed at least one complementary element.
  • gliding boards and in particular skis, which are constituted by an elongated beam whose front end is raised to form the spatula, while the lower surface comprises a sliding sole bordered by metal edges.
  • the present invention provides multipurpose skis consisting of a base and at least one complementary element whose cooperation of shapes, dimensions and structure, gives the whole of ski its necessary characteristics, as much of comfort as of driving of ski.
  • the gliding board on snow such as a ski, a monoski or a surf, of vertical plane of general symmetry
  • the gliding board on snow is of the type comprising a main part, said body or base, comprising at least in the zone of the shoe two recessed lateral housing extending longitudinally to form a longitudinal rib, each of the longitudinal housing opening at least upwards, in which said body is fixed at least in the zone of the pad a complementary element consisting of two parts longitudinal sides extending longitudinally substantially parallel, the two longitudinal side portions being fixed in said hollow recesses, characterized in that the two longitudinal side portions are interconnected by at least one transverse connecting portion.
  • the two longitudinal lateral parts are interconnected by two transverse connection parts.
  • each of the recessed lateral recesses constitutes two grooves which open upwards according to another complementary characteristic each of the recessed lateral recesses constitute two lateral recesses which open laterally towards the outside and upwards, while they do not open down to form a lower side edge.
  • the thickness of the lower side edge of the base and the height of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element progressively decrease from the ski center, towards the front and / or towards the rear.
  • the thickness of the lower side edge of the base is constant, while the height of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element, is variable.
  • the height of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element decreases from the center of the ski forward and / or backward.
  • the thickness of the lower side edge of the base is variable, while the height of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element, is constant.
  • the thickness of the base lateral edge may be constant to decrease from the center of the ski forward and / or backward.
  • the height of each one or / and the other of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element is equal to or greater than the height of the corresponding clearances.
  • the base has its own distribution of thickness, coastline, width and stiffness.
  • the width of the side clearances is variable longitudinally, to be greater in the center of the ski, and to decrease forwards and / or backwards.
  • the longitudinal side part or parts of the complementary element are constituted by elongated profiles whose transverse section evolves in its dimensions and / or in its forms.
  • the width of the longitudinal lateral parts of the complementary element may be variable longitudinally, to be greater in the center of the ski, and to decrease towards the front and / or towards the rear.
  • the length of the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element is equal to or greater than 30% of the length of the base.
  • each of the longitudinal lateral parts of the complementary element is slightly greater than the height of the corresponding clearance.
  • the complementary element is a hollow profile, made of composite material, and is made by thermoforming or hot forming a composite sheet material.
  • a determined base corresponds to a set of several different complementary elements.
  • the ski with the general reference (1) is a set of elongate shapes having a median vertical (P) plane of general symmetry whose front is raised to form the spatula (8).
  • the ski (1) is constituted by a main part that we will call body or base (2) on which at least one complementary element (4) is fixed at least in the region of the shoe (3)
  • the base (2) is the element in contact with the snow and has the shape of an elongate beam having on its lower surface a sliding sole (6) laterally bordered by lateral edges (7a, 7b) of metal.
  • the base (2) is an elongate beam whose front end is raised to form the spatula (8) of the ski.
  • This base (2) has its own distribution of thickness, coastline, width and stiffness and can be of all types and constitutions.
  • the elongate beam constituting the base (2) can be of all types of designs such as those known to date as, for example, sandwich type, box type, or shell type, or even the type combining shell and side fields, taken alone or in combination, or mixed and consisting of a set of elements and components known in themselves.
  • Figure 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a ski of type associating a shell, and side fields (20a, 20b).
  • the complementary element (4) is intended to participate in the flexural holding of the ski, and therefore acts as a stiffener.
  • the complementary element (4) has the general shape of an "H", and comprises two longitudinal longitudinal portions (4a, 4b) extending longitudinally, and which are connected by a transverse portion of link (4c) extending transversely, substantially in the middle zone of the complementary element.
  • the complementary element (4) could comprise two transverse connecting parts (4c, 4'c) connecting the two longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) as shown in Figures 14 and 14a.
  • the complementary element (4) comprises in such a variant, a front link portion (4c) and a rear link portion (4'c).
  • the two longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) are advantageously constituted by elongate profiles, the section of which in a transverse section is advantageously progressive, in its dimensions and / or in its shapes.
  • each of the longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) has its own configuration and structure, its own distribution of thickness, width and stiffness and can be of all types of constructions.
  • the complementary element (4) with its two longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) can be formed by a monobloc element made of one and the same material. But it can be of a completely different design as, for example, formed by a profile having substantially the shape of a tube comprising an outer wall made, for example, composite material, whose central portion would be empty or filled with a filling material, such as a synthetic foam, as shown in Figure 18.
  • the complementary element is for example obtained by thermoforming or hot forming.
  • each of the longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) is a profile whose section advantageously decreases progressively from the central zone (30) towards the front (AV) and towards the rear ( AR), in width and thickness.
  • the base (2) comprises lateral recesses (8a, 8b) in each of which is fixed one of the longitudinal side parts (4a, 4b).
  • the base (2) comprises a left lateral clearance (8a) in which is fixed the left longitudinal side portion (4a), and a right lateral clearance (8b) in which is fixed the left longitudinal side portion (4b).
  • each of the side clearances is partially complementary shape to receive the corresponding longitudinal side portion (4a, 4b).
  • each of the side clearances (8a, 8b) opens laterally outward (EX) and upward (HA), while it does not open downwards (BA), to form two lateral housings (8a, 8b), intended to receive the longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4).
  • width (L1) of the clearances is advantageously longitudinally variable, to be wider in the center (30) of the ski (1), and advantageously decrease progressively, forward (AV) or rearward (AR), and advantageously forward (AV) and backward (AR).
  • the height (H1) of the clearances (8a, 8b) is advantageously longitudinally variable, to be greater in the center of the ski, and advantageously decrease progressively, forward (AV) or rearward (AR), and advantageously forward (AV) and backward (AR).
  • the height (H2) of the profile of the two longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) is greater than the height (H1) of the corresponding clearance (8a, 8b), and this, over all or part of the length of the longitudinal side portion of the complementary element. But, according to the preferred mode, it is the height (H2) of the profile of the two longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) which is greater than the height (H1) of the corresponding recess (8a, 8b),
  • the general plane (P3) of the upper surface (40) of the longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) is located above the plane (P1) of the upper surface (110) of the longitudinal rib (11).
  • the height (H2) of the profile of each of the longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4) could be equal to the height (H1) of the clearance or corresponding housing (8a, 8b ), and this, along the entire length of the complementary element.
  • the general plane (P3) of the upper surface (40) of the longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) would be located in the same general plane (P1) of the upper surface (110) of the longitudinal rib (11).
  • the height (H2) of the profile of at least one of the longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4) may be equal to or greater than the height (H1) of the openings or corresponding housing (8a, 8b).
  • the width (L2) of the longitudinal lateral portions (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4) is advantageously variable longitudinally, to be wider at the center of the ski, and advantageously to decrease progressively from the center (30) of the ski (1), forward (AV) or rearward (AR), while their height (H2) is also advantageously progressively variable forward (AV) and rearward (AR) longitudinally for be greater in the center (30) of the ski (1), and decrease in the forward (AV) or rearward (AR),
  • the height (H), namely, the thickness of the ski (1), that is to say the height of the base (2) plus the height of the lateral parts longitudinal (4a, 4b) is equal to the distance between the upper surface (40) of the longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) and the lower sliding surface (6).
  • the height (H) corresponding to the thickness of the ski (1) at the longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) is equal to the height (H2) of said lateral portions plus the thickness (H3) of the lateral edge (20) of the base (2).
  • height (H) is variable to advantageously decrease progressively forward (AV) or rearward (AR), and advantageously forward (AV) and rearward (AR).
  • the overall length (L4) of the complementary element (4) and in particular of its longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) may extend over all or part of the length of the base . It may be, for example, equal to or greater than 30% of the length (L) of the base (2), such as, for example, between 30% and 90%.
  • the length (L4) of the complementary element may have, for example, a length of between 50 and 150 centimeters, for a ski having a length of 170 centimeters.
  • the two longitudinal side portions (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4) advantageously have the same length, but may have different lengths.
  • the length of one of the longitudinal portions (4a or 4b) may be longer than the other longitudinal portion (4b or 4a).
  • each of the elements may be as illustrated, but may be of square round, rectangular or other section. Note also that the shape of the section can be scalable and vary longitudinally.
  • a base (2) may correspond to a set of several complementary elements (4, 4 ', 4 ").
  • a given base (2) may correspond several complementary elements of different lengths (L4, L'4, L "4), and, for example, three complementary elements of different lengths, as illustrated in FIG.
  • there may be several complementary elements of different thicknesses it should also be noted that at a given base (2) there may also be several complementary elements of different mechanical characteristics, intended to confer on the ski (1) constituted by the base (2) and its complementary element (4) characteristics of different behaviors.
  • the different characteristics can be obtained by different thicknesses of the complementary elements, or by a different structure, or even different materials, or even a different geometry.
  • connection (9) can be made over the entire surface of the complementary element (4) common with its housing, as shown in Figure 8, or this connection (9a, 9b) can be achieved only on a part of the surface as, for example, in the areas of front (13) and rear (14), as shown in Figure 9.
  • connection of the complementary element (4) to the base (2) is carried out mechanically, for example by projecting recess (15) in corresponding holes (16), such as that is represented by FIG.
  • Figures 11 and 12 illustrate how can be fixed the ski bindings (90a, 90b) for retaining the shoe of the skier.
  • it is, for example, provided two brackets, front (10a) back (10b), on which are fixed the fasteners (90a, 90b), said stirrups being attached to the complementary side elements.
  • the stirrup can be attached to the lateral complementary elements (3a, 3b) by any known means, gluing, screws, etc.
  • transverse connecting part (4c) could also serve as a platform on which the fasteners (90a, 90b) would be mounted, and would then be of sufficient length.
  • the fasteners (90a, 90b) could not be fixed to an intermediate stirrup, such as the stirrups previously described, but could be fixed on the longitudinal lateral parts (4a, 4b) of the complementary element (4) or, of course, on the base (2).
  • Figure 13 is a view similar to Figure 12, showing an alternative embodiment in which the two stirrups (10a, 10b) are connected to each other to form a single stirrup (10).
  • the base (2) comprises a longitudinal rib (11) bordered by the two lateral recesses (8a, 8b), the width (L5) of which is smaller than the width (L6) of the lower part (12) of said base (2).
  • Each of the lateral clearances is therefore limited towards the plane of symmetry (P) by the longitudinal rib (11) and downwards by the lower part (12) of the base which comprises the metal edges (7a 7b) and the sole of slip (6).
  • the ski (1) may be such that the left longitudinal lateral part (4a) is different from the right longitudinal lateral part (4b) by its length, as already mentioned above, but by its section, its transverse dimensions, its constructive characteristics, even its technical characteristics.
  • the upper surface (40) of one of the longitudinal lateral parts is not necessarily at the same level as the upper surface (40) of the other of the lateral parts.
  • the two recessed lateral recesses (8a, 8b) extending longitudinally open upwards and laterally to form two lateral recesses, but it could be otherwise without departing from the invention. Indeed, these two lateral housings for receiving the longitudinal side portions of the complementary element, could only lead upwards to form two lateral grooves as shown in Figures 15,16,17.
  • the complementary element forming the stiffener for the base (2) can, as we said earlier, be made from composite material sheet.
  • cross-linking portion (4c) is according to the exemplary illustrations fixed on the surface (110) of the central rib (11), but it could be otherwise, as by example housed in a transverse groove formed in the longitudinal rib (11) of the base.
