Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ice skate.
  • Conventional ice skates are usually constituted by a shoe, which is usually made of a plastic shell and has an articulated quarter in order to contain a soft inner boot.
  • a frame for supporting a blade is associated below the shoe shell.
  • the blade has an edge which is substantially straight in the central region and is curved in the rear and front end regions of the frame.
  • the blade edge interacts with the ice in a substantially straight central region which is radiused in a curved shape at the ends of the frame.
  • This shape of the blade allows an optimum contact with the ice while skating and also allows tilting of the skate back or forwards to perform various maneuvers.
  • the aim of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks described above by a skate that provides the user with optimum sensitivity as regards direction changes.
  • An additional object is to provide an ice skate in which this direction changing, even if performed sharply, can occur with limited friction.
  • Another object is to provide an ice skate that associates with the preceding characteristics that of allowing optimum skating with good stability even for straight paths.
  • Another object is to provide an ice skate that is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.
  • the reference numeral 1 designates the ice skate, which includes a shoe 2, constituted for example by a plastic shell, below the shoe a frame 3 is associated for supporting a blade 4.
  • the blade has an edge 5 which curves, starting from the rear end 6, towards the front end 7. At least one gap 8 is formed at this edge and is suitable to limit the surface of the edge 5 that interacts with the ice 9.
  • This gap 8 can be obtained for example by a suitable milling provided on the blade, or by a notch formed on the blade during manufacture or by subsequently machining the part.
  • Contact for the user is in any case optimum, because during normal skating, and therefore for straight paths, contact can occur not only at the central portion but also, optionally, at the rear portion or at the front portion by tilting the skate very slightly.
  • the blade may optionally have a wavelike shape so as to still form a central portion 310 that interacts directly with the surface of the ice 9 as well as rear and front portions 311 and 312 which are raised with respect to the central portion so as to further limit the surface that interacts with the ice.
  • Figure 5 illustrates a further embodiment, in which the blade 404 is shaped so as to form a series of sequentially arranged semicircles that accordingly allow localized interaction with the tangent points for example of a central semicircle 413 and optionally with one or both of the adjacent semicircles 414a and 414b.
  • Figure 6 illustrates another embodiment, in which the gap 508 affects the entire edge 505 of the blade 504 starting from regions which are adjacent to the rear end 506 and to the front end 507 so as to form, at these ends, a first protrusion 515 and a second protrusion 516 which do not interact directly with the ice 9, whereas a curved central portion 510 that connects the first and second protrusions interacts with the ice.
  • the materials of which the blades are made, as well as their dimensions, such as for example their height and width, as well as the number of gaps and their shape, may of course vary according to multiple requirements.
