Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gliding board, particularly the invention relates to a ski for snow or a snowboard.
  • the sliding boards comprise several components assembled to each other by different techniques such as gluing, welding, or injection.
  • a gliding board comprises a top, a sliding surface, also called sole, at least one upper reinforcement, at least one lower reinforcement and an intermediate structure placed between the lower reinforcement and the upper reinforcement.
  • the patent FR 2 781 686 describes a ski of this type where the intermediate structure consists of a single piece called the core.
  • each of the reinforcing materials has well-defined properties.
  • a ski with aluminum reinforcements has a soft contact with the snow, and that it dampens the relief.
  • Such a ski is powerful and well placed on the snow. It is more suited to downhill or giant slalom practices.
  • a ski with fiber reinforcements is lively and nervous, it has a good rebound.
  • This type of ski is suitable for bumps or the sequence of short turns.
  • the geometry of the gliding board also determines its behavior. Since the appearance of the skis to the lines of dimensions dug, as have so-called parabolic skis, the ends of the ski (spatula, heel) widen, and it is observed that this results in intolerant behavior at the extremities. Indeed, the ends can then be, in some cases, vibrant, guiding, tricky for skiers with a low level and this depending on snow or terrain.
  • the present invention aims to provide a gliding board that allows to overcome the limitations posed by the devices known in the prior art.
  • the invention aims to provide a gliding board whose behavior is improved.
  • the object of the invention is obtained by providing a gliding board having a front end and a rear end, said front end and said rear end being distant from each other along a longitudinal axis, which board being constituted by the superposition of the following elements: a gliding sole; at least one lower reinforcement; at least one upper reinforcement; an intermediate structure, placed between said at least one lower reinforcement and said at least one upper reinforcement.
  • at least one of the ends of the gliding board, said at least one lower reinforcement and / or said at least one upper reinforcement comprises (respectively, each comprise) a longitudinal slot so that, in an area of said at least one of the ends there is a reduced thickness of reinforcement above and / or below said intermediate structure.
  • Slots are preferably provided in the lower reinforcement and in the upper reinforcement and these slits are through, so that said zone of said at least one of the ends of the board, said intermediate structure is not interposed between a portion of said at least one lower reinforcement and said at least one upper reinforcement.
  • the intermediate structure comprises a one-piece core, or by the fact that the intermediate structure comprises a rigid core resistant to vertical compression and a connecting element made of a material distinct from the rest of the core, placed in said area and capable of flexing in a transverse direction.
  • the rigid core comprises a slot at said area facing the slots in the lower and upper reinforcements.
  • the slot in the rigid core has dimensions, that is to say, width and length, greater than those slots in the reinforcements, upper and lower. This slot is completely filled by the connecting element whose outer dimensions are identical to those of the slot.
  • the connecting element is made of a rubber-like material.
  • the slot formed in the lower reinforcement and the slot in the upper reinforcement are equivalent (substantially the same length and the same width) and they are placed rigorously one above the other. 'other.
  • the length lo-i-1 of the lower slot of the lower reinforcement may be larger or smaller than the length lo-s-1 of the upper slot of the upper reinforcement.
  • the width La-i-1 of the lower slot of the lower reinforcement may be larger or smaller than the width La-s-1 of the upper slot of the upper reinforcement.
  • the top layer 11 has a slot of length Lo-s-1, respectively Lo-s-2.
  • the length of the slot, Lo-s-1 is between 150 mm and 400 mm, preferably between 200 mm and 350 mm.
  • the measurement of the length of the slot is from the tip of the gliding board, whether or not it is covered and possibly extended by a plastic tip.
  • the length of the slot Lo-s-2 is between 20 mm and 200 mm, preferably between 50 mm and 180 mm. In particular, good results have been obtained with a rear slot whose length Lo-s-2 is approximately equal to 150 mm.
  • Figure 2 shows in cross section the front end 6 of the gliding board.
  • the lower reinforcement 4 and the upper reinforcement 3 both comprise two portions separated by a slot.
  • the upper slot formed in the upper reinforcement 3 has a width La-s-1 which is equal to the width La-i-1 of the lower slot formed in the lower reinforcement 4.
  • This common width is between 5 mm and 30 mm preferably between 7 mm and 20 mm. Good results are obtained with a slot in the lower reinforcement 4 whose width La-i-1 is approximately equal to 10 mm.
  • the intermediate structure 5 comprises a core 8 whose front and rear ends comprise a slot.
  • the slot located at its front end is visible in Figure 2. It is a slot which passes vertically through the core 8. Its dimensions (width, length) are greater than those of the slots in the lower reinforcement and the upper reinforcement.
  • the intermediate structure 5 also comprises a connecting element 9 which fills the space left free by the slot formed in the core 8.
  • the connecting element 9 is constituted by a block of rubber, or in any equivalent material, for example elastomer, having the same thickness as the core and dimensions such that it can fit into the slot therein.
  • zone Z1 there is a continuity in the transverse direction of the intermediate structure 5 while there is discontinuity of the lower reinforcements 4 and upper 3. In other words, in the zone Z1, the intermediate structure 5 does not is not interposed between the upper reinforcement 3 and the lower reinforcement 4.
  • the gliding board also comprises a gliding base 2, placed under the lower reinforcement 4, metal edges 10 and a top 11, placed on the upper reinforcement 3.
  • a slot is cut in the gliding base 2.
  • This slot of the sole is slightly smaller than the slot in the lower reinforcement so that the edges of the sole surrounding the slit of the sole cover the edges of the lower reinforcement surrounding the slot of the lower reinforcement, thereby sealing the lower surface of the gliding board.
  • a slot called the slot above, is also formed in the top 11. This slot is slightly smaller than the slot in the upper reinforcement 3. Thus, at the slot, the edges of the top 11 cover the edges of the upper reinforcement 3, sealing the upper surface of the gliding board.
  • Figure 3 describes in a cross section similar to that of Figure 2, the new behavior of the gliding board made possible by the construction of the latter according to the invention.
  • the discontinuity of the lower and upper reinforcements introduces a flexibility, a certain flexibility in a transverse direction.
  • the element of liaison ensures a continuity of the structure of the gliding board, especially in terms of longitudinal flexural characteristics.
  • a split gliding board according to the invention is for the user easier to skid and therefore easier to control.
  • the drawbacks of gliding boards with dug-out lines and short radii of curvature, that is to say less than 15 meters are considerably lessened.
  • the gliding boards made according to the invention are very progressive, they are homogeneous in the course of the curve, they are accessible and in particular tolerant and easy. On the other hand, these boards of gliding are very stable on flat ground while allowing an extreme softness of the ends on the reliefs.
  • Figure 4 shows in section a second embodiment of the invention.
  • the gliding board is constituted by the superposition of a sliding sole 2, a lower reinforcement 4, an upper reinforcement 3 and an intermediate structure 5, placed between said at least one lower reinforcement 4 and said at least one upper reinforcement 3.
  • the intermediate structure 5 essentially consists of a core 8 completed in a zone Z1, of the front end 6, and in a zone Z2 of the rear end, by a connecting element 9. In these zones Z1 and Z2, the intermediate structure 5 is not interposed between the upper reinforcement 3 and the lower reinforcement 4.
  • Figure 4 shows in cross section the front end 6 of the gliding board.
  • the area Z1 will be discussed.
  • all that is written is also valid for the rear end and zone Z2.
  • the lower reinforcement 4 and the upper reinforcement 3 both comprise two portions separated by a slot.
  • the upper slot formed in the upper reinforcement 3 has a width La-s-1 which is equal to the width La-i-1 of the lower slot formed in the lower reinforcement 4.
  • the top layer 11, does not have, as in the previous embodiment, slit.
  • the top layer 11 rests directly on the connecting element 9.
  • the zone Z1 is visually marked by a portion of the top layer slightly set back from the rest of the upper surface of the gliding board. .
  • the depth of this recessed zone is determined by the thickness of the upper reinforcement 3.
  • the sliding sole 2 also has no slot.
  • the sliding sole is in direct contact with the connecting element 9.
  • the sole has a smaller thickness, so that the groove 12 visible in the sole has a depth greater than the thickness of the lower reinforcement 4.
  • the part placed at the bottom of the groove having a different color from that of the rest of the sole.
  • the construction of the ski is simplified. Indeed, in this case, the waterproofness of the ski at the slot is more easily obtained.
  • Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8 show a third embodiment of the invention.
  • Figures 5, 6 and 7 respectively show a simplified longitudinal section, a top view and a bottom view, while Figure 8 shows a cross section.
  • the gliding board 1 is constituted by the superposition of a gliding sole 2, a lower reinforcement 4, an upper reinforcement 3 and an intermediate structure 5, placed between the said at least one lower reinforcement 4 and the said at least one upper reinforcement 3.
  • the intermediate structure 5 consists essentially of a core 8 completed in a zone Z1, of the front end 6, and in a zone Z2 of the rear end, by a connecting element 9. these zones Z1 and Z2, the intermediate structure 5 is not interposed between the upper reinforcement 3 and the lower reinforcement 4.
  • the gliding board also comprises a top 11 and edges 10 disposed on either side of the gliding base 2. In the chosen construction, the top 11 rests directly on the edges 10. This is not a question of a limiting feature of the invention and we can achieve the invention with a construction for which songs are inserted between the edges and the top.
  • a zone Z1 is defined in which the upper reinforcement 3 has a slot of length Lo-s-1 and width La-s- 1.
  • the lower reinforcement 4 has a slot of length Lo-i-1 and width La-i-1.
  • the length of the slot of the upper reinforcement Lo-s-1 is smaller than that of the slot of the upper reinforcement Lo-i-1, while the width La-s-1 is also smaller than the width of the slot of the Lower reinforcement La-i-1.
