The subject of the utility model is a set of three modules for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track.
Recreational tracks particularly intended for cycling, but also for roller skating, are known under the name pump-track and are a purposefully prepared small tracks with combined riding on a two-wheeled device (usually a bicycle) and providing a comprehensive training.
It is made of high-speed curves and moguls. It develops users' reflexes, a sense of balance and fitness.
From the French application document FR2757075, a modular skating track is known. The track is made of a horizontal surface connected to modular curved sections. The upper part of the end section is covered by a cylindrically-shaped bumper. The slope is connected to the platform by a safety barrier. The curved surfaces are supported on a frame made of vertical, horizontal and diagonal bars. They are stiffened with triangular bars and connected to each other by mounting plates. The horizontal surface is supported by bars beneath it, and inclination can be varied with means of feet of variable height.
From the European application document EP0378725A1 a track solution is known, in particular for a skateboard, which is made of individual modules. In order to set up a skateboard track which can be built outdoors and which has a long service life with simultaneously excellent rolling properties, it is proposed to build a skateboard track from individual modules that consist of precast concrete elements, and therefore have excellent riding characteristics on their riding side, while simultaneously producing less noise than previously known tracks.
From the European application document EP0870523A1, a roller track solution made of individual elements is known. The track structure consists of many sections that form a hollow track with a flat bottom, and a number of end sections with which the structure has a closed semicircular end. The hollow track consists of concave sections that have flat horizontal platforms along the hill. Platforms are used for starting or landing. Users can also move along the structure and along the semicircular end. The concave sections are supported by struts. A roof can be added to the structure.
From the European application description EP0796641A1 a roller track solution made of individual modules is known. A roller track comprises at least one portion with a bent surface, wherein this portion consists of a bent surface which is mainly supported solely by curved slats which extend primarily in the direction of curvature of the bent plate.
Known tracks can be made of wood, concrete or plastic, wherein concrete can be poured on the construction site of the track, for example, or they can be made in the form of modular elements manufactured externally to the construction site and appropriately selected depending on the needs, particularly the shape of terrain or the need to ensure proper track construction.
Recreational tracks known from the state of the art, particularly tracks made of concrete elements, are characterized by high weight, which causes great difficulties in their construction and also affects their cost.
The purpose of the utility model is to provide a set of modular elements for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, which in addition to low costs of track construction, ensure optimal riding trajectory for the user, thus improving the level of safety, contributing to the ergonomics of riding and enabling the construction of tracks of various shapes.
