In the following description, members and portions having the same functions are denoted by the same reference numerals, and repeated descriptions of members and portions denoted by the same reference numerals are omitted.

(definition of direction)
Herein, from the rear end 11 of the lift boarding platform 1 (in other words, the end farthest from the lift out platform) to the front end 12 of the lift boarding platform 1 (in other words, close to the lift out platform). side edge) is defined as "first direction DR1", and the direction opposite to first direction DR1 is defined as "second direction DR2". As illustrated in FIG. 2, the first direction DR1 matches the moving direction of the chair 113 on which the user is sitting.

In this specification, the width direction of the lift boarding platform 1 is defined as "third direction DR3".

(First embodiment)
A lift boarding platform 1A in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6. FIG. 1, 5, and 6 are schematic cross-sectional views schematically showing a lift boarding platform 1A in the first embodiment. FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 are schematic plan views schematically showing the lift boarding platform 1A in the first embodiment. FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically showing an example of the wax coating device 20. As shown in FIG.

The lift boarding platform 1A in the first embodiment comprises a wax applicator 20. As shown in FIG.

In the example illustrated in FIG. 1 , the wax applying device 20 applies wax to the back surface E1 of the board E for the user A sitting on the chair 113 attached to the carrier wire 111 of the lift 110 . In this specification, the planing board E includes skis and snowboards. Also, in the example shown in FIG. 1, the gliding board E is attached to the user's foot via the boot F. As shown in FIG.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, the wax applicator 20 is arranged directly below the track along which the chair 113 moves. In the example shown in FIG. 2, when the chair 113 moves in the first direction DR1, the gliding board E of the user A sitting on the chair 113 also moves in the first direction DR1. Therefore, it is not necessary to newly provide a conveying device for moving the sliding plate E relative to the wax coating device 20 . In addition, since there is no need to provide a new transport device, it is possible to contribute to energy saving and decarbonization.

In the first embodiment, the wax is applied to the gliding board E by the user getting on the chair 113 of the lift 110 and the chair 113 moving. Thus, in the first embodiment, a lift riding platform 1A is provided in which wax can be applied to the back side E1 of the planing board E without taking up the user's time and without imposing a burden on the user. In this specification, "ride" means getting on the lift 110 (more specifically, the chair 113), and "getting off" means getting off the lift 110 (more specifically, the chair 113). means to get off.

(optional additional configuration)
Next, optional additional configurations that can be employed in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6. FIG.

(Chair 113)
In the example illustrated in FIG. 2, the chair 113 allows a plurality of users including a first user A and a second user B to sit. In other words, the chair 113 has a first seat portion 113A on which the first user A sits and a second seat portion 113B on which the second user B sits. In the example shown in FIG. 2, the wax application device 20 is arranged in an area AR1 directly below the movement track of the first seat portion 113A and in an area AR2 directly below the movement track of the second seat portion 113B. there is In this case, the wax application device 20 can be used by multiple users (A, B) at the same time. For example, when a plurality of friends use the chair 113, it is possible to apply wax to the sliding boards E of the plurality of persons at the same time. Therefore, there is no need for the other friend to wait while the wax is applied to the friend's planing board E, unlike the conventional wax applicator. In the example shown in FIG. 2, the chair 113 is a chair for two people, but the chair 113 may be a chair for three people or a chair for four people.

(Wax coating device 20)
In the example shown in FIG. 2, the wax application device 20 includes a wax application roller 21 and a shaft 23 that supports the wax application roller 21 rotatably around the rotation axis AX1. In the example illustrated in FIG. 2, the rotation axis AX1 extends along a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the chair 113 (more specifically, the third direction DR3). When the rotation axis AX1 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the chair 113, the orientation of the sliding plate E in contact with the wax application roller 21 is likely to be maintained parallel to the first direction DR1.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, one wax application roller 21 is arranged across an area AR1 directly under the movement track of the first seat 113A and an area AR2 directly under the movement track of the second seat 113B. ing. In this case, the number of parts constituting the wax coating device 20 can be reduced. However, in the embodiment, the first wax application roller is arranged in the area AR1 directly under the movement track of the first seat 113A, and the first wax application roller is arranged in the area AR2 directly under the movement track of the second seat 113B. A second wax application roller, separate from the roller, may be arranged.

The wax application roller 21 may be a passive roller rotated by the sliding plate E upon contact with the sliding plate E. Alternatively, the lift boarding platform 1A may comprise a drive 25 that rotates the waxing roller 21 (in other words, rotates the shaft 23).

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the driving device 25 moves the wax application roller 21 such that the movement direction ER1 of the upper end 21e of the wax application roller 21 coincides with the movement direction of the chair 113 (in other words, the first direction DR1). 21 and shaft 23 are rotated around rotation axis AX1. Since the movement direction ER1 of the upper end 21e of the wax application roller 21 coincides with the movement direction of the chair 113, the gliding plate E and the wax application roller 21 are less likely to be caught.

The driving device 25 controls the movement speed of the upper end 21e of the wax application roller 21 in the first direction DR1 to be equal to the movement speed of the chair 113 in the first direction DR1 or faster than the movement speed of the chair 113 in the first direction DR1. The wax application roller 21 and the shaft 23 may be rotated around the rotation axis AX1 so that the speed becomes even faster. In this case, catching between the sliding plate E and the wax coating roller 21 is even less likely to occur.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the wax application device 20 includes a storage tank 27 that stores the liquid wax D, and the lower end 21 f of the wax application roller 21 is in contact with the liquid wax D in the storage tank 27 .

The wax applying roller 21 may be a sponge roller or a brush roller having a brush extending away from the rotation axis AX1.

In the examples shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the wax applicator 20 is a device that applies a liquid wax D. As shown in FIG. Alternatively, the wax applicator 20 may be a device that applies solid wax to the back surface E1 of the planing board E. As shown in FIG. 2 to 4, the wax applicator 20 has a wax applicator roller 21. As shown in FIGS. Alternatively or additionally, the wax applicator 20 may have a nozzle for spraying liquid wax toward the rear surface E1 of the planing plate E. In the example shown in Figures 2-4, the wax applicator 20 (more specifically the reservoir 27) is embedded within the base portion 13 of the lift platform 1A. By embedding the wax application device 20 (more specifically, the storage tank 27 ) in the base portion 13 , the protrusion amount of the wax application device 20 from the upper surface 13 u of the base portion 13 can be reduced.

(first mark 31)

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the distance L1 between the first mark 31 and the wax coating device 20 is 2 m or more and 30 m or less, or 6 m or more and 20 m or less. When the distance L1 is 2 m or more or 6 m or more, the user can adjust the position of the buttocks after sitting on the chair 113, and then concentrate on applying the wax to the gliding board E with time to spare. . In addition, corresponding to the distance L1 being 2 m or more or 6 m or more, the total length of the lift boarding platform 1A may be longer than the total length of a general lift boarding platform. Further, by setting the distance L1 to 30 m or less or 20 m or less, the overall length of the lift boarding platform 1A is not excessively increased.

(height of wax applicator)
In the example shown in FIG. 6, the height of the wax application device 20 (more specifically, the height of the upper end 21e of the wax application roller 21) is determined by the user applying wax to the back surface E1 of the sliding plate E. The height is set so that it is possible to select whether the back surface E1 of the sliding board E is not coated with wax by pulling up the sliding board E. As shown in FIG. More specifically, in the example shown in FIG. 6, user C in a normal posture can apply wax to the back surface E1 of the gliding board E, and user A in a knee-lifted posture can apply wax to the gliding board E. It is possible to prevent the back surface E1 of the plate E from being coated with wax. For example, the user A who has previously applied wax to the back surface E1 of his/her own ski board E can avoid the wax being applied to the back surface E1 of the ski board E in a superimposed manner.

For example, the distance H1 between the upper end 21e of the wax applying roller 21 and the seat surface of the chair 113 (in other words, the upper surface of the seat portion of the chair 113) is set to 30 cm or more and 75 cm or less, or 40 cm or more and 65 cm or less. be.
