Definitions

• the invention relates to a sliding board, in particular a ski or a snowboard, with at least one interface element connected to the sliding board body, in particular a rail or guide element, for arranging binding elements on the upper side of the sliding board.
• the invention further relates to a method for producing a gliding board, in particular a ski or a snowboard, in which a preformed gliding board upper part having an upper shell is connected to a gliding board lower part which has an outsole, optionally a lower flange and steel edges, and foam is introduced.
• a sliding board of the above-mentioned embodiment is known from EP-A-1 161 972.
• a rail system consisting of at least one profile rail is connected to the sliding board body via at least one molded-on dowel or dowel section by means of a dowel connection or anchoring.
• the gliding board or the ski body is shaped in such a way that at least in the binding area on the upper side a trough-like depression extending in the longitudinal direction of the gliding board and on both sides of this depression are provided a raised area extending in the longitudinal direction.
• the profile rails are fastened to the raised areas, the respective rail being inserted into a slot made in the slide board body and open at the top of the slide board by means of an adhesive / dowel connection using profile sections which are provided with a profile which improves the anchoring and be anchored there by gluing.
• the mounting of the profile rail should already take place during the manufacture or when pressing the sliding boards. Even if the one suggested here Dowel fastening of the profile rails has certain advantages compared to screw fastening - possibility of fastening over longer lengths, compact design of the rails - it is a matter of fastening the profile rails to an already pre-shaped sliding board. In order to reduce the manufacturing costs and the manufacture of the ski or gliding board system with a rail or To simplify the guide system, however, it would be desirable to be able to actually connect these components together during the manufacture of the gliding board.
• a scaffold or a cassette is integrated in the gliding board body, on which the interface element (s), in particular the rail or guide element (s), is anchored, the scaffolding or the cassette, preferably also the interface elements, is or are connected to further sliding board parts via foam, preferably via a foamed core.
• the method according to the invention is characterized in that when the sliding board parts or layers are joined together, at least one interface element, in particular a rail or guide element, for anchoring and guiding a binding part is anchored to a scaffold or a cassette positioned between sliding board parts, followed by foam is so that the interface element (s) and / or the framework or the cassette is or are connected to one another, to the foam and the further sliding board parts.
• the invention is therefore actually an integration of the interface element (s) with the gliding board body during the production of the ski or gliding board. Subsequent fastening and gluing processes for arranging rail or guide elements are therefore unnecessary. Rail or guide elements integrated according to the invention are therefore also very resilient.
• the scaffold or the cassette consists of struts and / or supports which cross each other and which are provided with openings or holes. Through the openings or holes, the still liquid foam material can pass through unhindered during the manufacture of the ski and the necessary connection of the hardened foam with the other gliding board parts can take place.
• the connecting elements of the rail or guide elements are carried out through individual holes, elongated holes, slots or the like in the upper shell and possibly in other layers of the sliding board. This measure also supports inexpensive and economical manufacture of sliding boards designed according to the invention.
• Fig. 2 is a plan view of the ski of Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 shows a cross section through a further embodiment of a ski according to the invention.
• FIG. 1 shows a cross section through a ski which has an outsole 1, two steel edges 3, a lower flange 2 and an upper shell 4.
• the core 6 of the ski is foamed and, at least in those areas where rail or guide elements 5 are integrated in the core 6 and the upper shell 4, is interspersed with a frame or a cassette 7 or in a number of core elements which are in contact with one another connected, shared.
• At least one rail or guide element 5 extending in the longitudinal direction of the ski is provided for each ski binding or for each ski binding part. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, two such elements 5 are integrated into the ski structure for each ski binding part.
• a ski binding part for example a front or rear binding jaws
• a ski binding part or the ski binding are not the subject of this invention, are therefore not explained and are also not shown.
• a base plate 14 pushed onto the two elements 5 is indicated only by a dashed line.
• the rail or guide elements 5 can be provided with guide projections 5a on their edges that extend on the outside and in the longitudinal direction of the ski, which are overlapped by corresponding laterally curved edge regions of the base plate 14 shown in broken lines when the same is pushed on.
• the steel edges 3, the outsole 1, the upper shell 4 and the lower flange 2 can in principle be constructed in a conventional manner.
• the upper shell 4, which is only shown in one layer, can also have two or more layers.
• An embodiment is preferred in which the upper shell 4 is already pre-shaped in a shell-like manner before the core 6 is foamed. Additional layers can be introduced below the upper shell 4.
• the upper shell 4 is for connecting the rail or guide element 5 to the framework or the already mentioned Cassette 7 and for incorporating the same or the same in the core 6 with a number of, for example, circular connecting holes 8.
• the holes 8 are arranged in the form of a row of holes extending in the longitudinal direction of the ski. Instead of a row of holes, a single elongated hole or several elongated holes, which also extend in the longitudinal direction of the ski, can be provided.
• 5 connecting extensions 9 are arranged on the underside of each rail or guide element.
• each connecting extension 9 is slotted in the middle and provided with undercuts which can engage behind latching openings 10a in a longitudinal strut 10 of the frame or the cassette 7.
• the end regions 9a of the connecting extensions 9 ensure, as a result of their slotted design, that the extensions 9 can be easily inserted into the latching openings 10a.
• the latching of the connecting extensions 9 at the latching openings 10a thus requires an elastic deformability of either the connecting extensions 9 or the framework or the cassette 7, which can be deformable in such a way that the latching openings 10a can widen to the required extent.
• the scaffold or the cassette 7 is shown only schematically in FIG. 1 and here consists of a plurality of support struts 11 running between the upper shell 4 and the lower flange 2, a plurality of longitudinal struts 10 and at least one or a plurality of connection struts 12 which connect to the support struts 11 for the second rail or guide element 5. All struts or walls of the scaffold or the cassette 7 are provided with a number of openings or holes 13 in order, as will be described below, to allow the foam material to pass through and form a firm connection when the core 6 is foamed and formed To ensure core 6 with the frame or the cassette 7, the rail or guide elements 5 and the other ski components.
• a one-piece guide element 5 ' is provided for a ski binding part or the like.
• the guide element 5 'therefore has two lateral guide lugs 5'.
• the design of the Guide elements (s) 5, 5 'or their guide attachments 5a, 5a' can be made differently and are especially adapted to the respective ski binding part.
• the production of a ski according to the invention with integrated rail or guide elements 5 can take place in such a way that initially the single or multi-layer upper shell 4, which is in particular already provided with a decorative layer, is manufactured as a shell and forms the upper part of the ski which is connected to the consisting of steel edges 3, lower flange 2 and outsole 1 existing ski base is connected in a known manner.
• the scaffold or the cassette 7 is positioned in advance in the shell of the upper part of the ski and connected to the rail or guide elements 5 by inserting and clipping the connecting extensions 9.
• the frame or the cassette 7 serves as a spacer between the upper part of the ski and the lower part of the ski and as a supporting frame during the manufacture of the ski.
• the core 6 of the ski forms, the polymeric material of the foam simultaneously being the connecting means for the individual layers or elements with one another.
• the scaffold or the cassette 7 can advantageously not only be an auxiliary construction for fixing the rail or guide elements 5, but also, as a so-called torsion box, can also take on the task of influencing or improving the rigidity of the ski.
• the material and / or the structural design of the framework or the cassette 7 can have a targeted influence on the stiffness behavior of the ski.
• the design of the frame or the cassette 7 can be varied both in the longitudinal direction of the ski and in the transverse direction of the ski in order to do justice to the desired different bending behavior of the ski over its length.
• the invention has been described on the basis of an exemplary embodiment relating to a ski.
• other types of sliding boards for example snowboards, can also be designed or manufactured according to the invention.
• at least the framework or the cassette is non-positively integrated via the foam, the rail or guide elements are preferably also held via the foam material.
