Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a non-slip deck pad that is attached to the surface of a snowboard deck part, and more particularly to a snowboard deck pad that can scrape a hardened snow lump attached to the sole of a snow boot. is there.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the snowboard 1 is a pair of bindings in which feet are put on the upper surface of the board 2 formed into a substantially long plate shape using a plate material such as glass fiber, wood, polyurethane, Kepler or carbon fiber as a base material. 3 and 4 are provided. The snowboard 1 configured as described above is configured such that the legs are put on the bindings 3 and 4 and placed on the board 2 to slide on the snow.
[0003]
When using the snowboard 1, when getting on and off the lift on the slope, the foot located on the rear side of the board 2 is removed from the binding 4 and the board 2 is suspended and held by the front foot, but the lift is lowered. Since there is sometimes an inclination, it is necessary to place the rear foot on the deck portion 5 located between the bindings 3 and 4 on the board 2.
[0004]
However, since the deck portion 5 of the board 2 has a smooth surface, it is slippery when a foot wearing snow boots is placed, and there is a risk of falling. Accordingly, various deck pads 6 have been proposed which are used by being attached to the surface of the deck portion 5 of the board 2 to prevent slipping.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the conventional deck pad 6 has a large number of rubber or synthetic resin protrusions attached to the surface of the deck portion 5 of the board 2. This type of rubber or synthetic resin deck pad 6 has a problem that its anti-slipping effect tends to decrease due to deformation or wear during use of the snowboard 1.
[0006]
A hard plastic deck pad is also proposed, but since the deck portion 5 of the snowboard 1 is a portion that bends gently during downhill, the deck pad made of such a hard material is peeled off from the deck portion 5. It also had the problem of being easy to do.
[0007]
The present invention has been developed to solve the above-described problems. That is, an object of the present invention is to form a heartwood at the center of each protrusion, so that a hard snow lump that has become icy at the sole can be easily scraped off, and the anti-slip effect of the foot against the deck portion is enhanced. Another object is to provide a snowboard deck pad that can improve the durability of the deck pad itself.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, a deck pad (7) to be attached to the surface of the deck portion (5) of the snowboard (1), the plurality of protrusions made of a soft synthetic resin material having an insertion hole (11) in the protruding direction. Inserting the projection (9) and the sheet material (10) made of a soft synthetic resin material so as to follow the deformation of the deck portion (5) due to the bending of the snowboard (1) during the down-swing of the snowboard (1) The tip (12a) is exposed in the hole (11) , and the protrusion (9) is made of a synthetic resin material harder than the protrusion (9) inserted so as not to be removed from the insertion hole (11) . tip and (12a) is narrower rear portion core formed as described (12b) is thicker (12) consists, on the deck portion (5), as can paste the rear surface of the sheet material (10) A snowboard characterized by Board private deck pad is provided.
[0010]
A snow scraping edge (13) made of a material harder than the material of the sheet material (10) is provided at a central portion of the sheet material (10) so as to be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the snowboard (1). Can be formed.
[0011]
In the configuration of the above invention, the deck portion (5) can be prevented from slipping only by attaching the back surface of the sheet material (10) of the deck pad (7) to the deck portion (5) of the snowboard (1). (5) A fall accident can be prevented because the foot does not slip on the top. In particular, since the tip (12a) of the core material (12 ) is exposed from the center of each projection (9) of the deck pad (7), the hard snow lump that has become icy on the shoe sole is easily scraped off. be able to. Therefore, since the tip portion (12a) of the core material (12) inserted into each projection (9) of the deck pad (7) comes into direct contact with the shoe sole, the anti-slip effect of the foot on the deck portion (5) Is expensive.
[0012]
Since the core (12) is inserted into the protrusion (9) so that the tip (12a) of the core (12) is exposed from the protrusion (9) , the deck pad (7) can be Even if it is stepped on, the core material (12) made of a hard material has an action of protecting the protrusion (9), and the durability of the deck pad (7) can be improved. The rod-shaped core material (12) is formed so that the tip end portion (12a) is thin and the rear end portion (12b) is thick, so that it cannot be easily removed from the insertion hole 11 of the protrusion 9. Particularly, since the sheet material (10) made of a soft synthetic resin material can be attached to the surface of the deck portion (5) from the back surface, the core material (12 inserted into the protrusion (9) of the deck pad (7) ) Can follow the deformation of the deck portion (5) due to bending during the downhill of the snowboard (1).
[0013]
Furthermore, by forming the snow scraping edge (13) on the sheet material (10), it is possible to easily scrape off a large and hard snow lump on the shoe sole. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the snow boots from slipping in the deck portion (5).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an embodiment of a snowboard deck pad according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a plan view showing another embodiment of the snowboard deck pad of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an enlarged side sectional view showing a plurality of protrusions.
The snowboard deck pad 7 of the present invention is affixed to a deck portion 5 positioned between a pair of bindings 3 and 4 provided on the upper surface of the board 2 of the snowboard 1. The deck pad 7 is formed by arranging one or a plurality of protrusions 9 on a sheet material 10. The sheet material 10 is made of a synthetic resin material such as polyurethane, and is attached to the deck portion 5 with an adhesive or the like on the back surface thereof.
[0015]
As shown in FIG. 3, each protrusion 9 is formed by forming a soft material such as a synthetic resin such as polyurethane into a substantially hemispherical shape. The material of the protrusions 9 and the sheet material 10 is not limited to a synthetic resin such as polyurethane, but has a certain degree of rigidity, but is capable of following the deformation of the deck portion 5 of the snowboard 1 that bends gently during downhill. Various synthetic resin materials can be used as long as they have flexibility.
[0016]
Each projection 9 is formed with an insertion hole 11 in the protruding direction. A rod-shaped core material 12 is inserted into the insertion hole 11 so that the distal end portion 12a is exposed. In the present invention, the rod-shaped core material 12 is formed in an inverted wedge shape, that is, the front end portion 12a is thin and the rear end portion 12b is thick so as not to easily come out from the insertion hole 11 of the protrusion 9. At the same time, the shape of the insertion hole 11 is formed such that the upper end (front end) is narrow and the lower end (rear end) is wide so that the core material 12 can be inserted without a gap. Since the core 12 is a part that functions as a “claw” so that the ice-like hardened snow lump can be easily scraped off at the sole, it is harder than the synthetic resin material of the protrusion 9. It is made of a material such as polycarbonate resin or ABS resin. The snowboard deck pad 7 configured as described above is used by being attached to the deck portion 5 of the snowboard 1. Note that the distal end portion 12 a of the core material 12 can be inserted so as not to be exposed from the insertion hole 11 of the protrusion 9.
[0017]
Further, a snow scraping edge 13 is formed at a central portion of the sheet material 10 so as to be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the snowboard 1 (see FIGS. 1 and 2). The edge 13 is made of the same material as the core material 12, for example, a hard material made of polycarbonate resin, ABS resin, or the like so that an ice-like hardened snow lump can be easily scraped off the shoe sole. As a means for fixing the edge 13 to the sheet material 10, the edge 13 having a reverse wedge shape is fixed to a long hole or a long groove formed in the center portion of the sheet material 10. In this way, by forming the edge 13 dedicated to snow scraping on the deck pad 7, it is possible to easily scrape a large and hard snow lump that is icy at the sole.
[0018]
4A, 4B, 4C and 4D are plan views showing other embodiments of the sheet material of the present invention.
(A) is a rhombus-shaped sheet material in which four protrusions are arranged, (b) is a rectangular sheet material in which four protrusions are arranged, and (c) is a hexagonal sheet material in which seven protrusions are arranged. , (D) shows two triangular sheet materials on which three protrusions are arranged. The shape of the sheet material 10 is preferably a rhombus shape as shown in FIG. 1 or an ellipse shape as shown in FIG. However, the shape of the sheet material 10 is not limited to a rhombus or an ellipse, and may be various shapes such as a quadrangle or a hexagon as illustrated. In addition, the size of the sheet material 10 and the number of protrusions are not particularly limited.

In addition, this invention is not limited to embodiment mentioned above, By forming the core material 12 in the processus | protrusion 9 which has a non-slip effect | action, while being able to scrape off the hard snow lump of a shoe sole and the anti-slip effect of a foot | leg Of course, the configuration is not limited to the configuration of the substantially hemispherical projection 9 and the inverted wedge-shaped core material 12 shown in the drawing, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. .
[0020]
Moreover, although the deck pad 7 of the present invention has been described as being affixed to the deck portion 5 of the snowboard 1, it is not limited to snow games such as this snowboard. For example, if it is an amusement device that requires durability as well as a non-slip action, it can be used by sticking to the surface of the deck part of the board of sports equipment or equipment used in marine sports such as surfing and windsurfing. .
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the snowboard deck pad according to the present invention can easily scrape off the hardened snow lump on the shoe sole, so that the anti-slip effect of the foot against the deck portion can be enhanced. .
[0022]
