Abstract
A skateboard structure is provided which is formed of a top piece and a bottom piece, the pieces being formed of appropriate injection molded plastic material, such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, "Plexiglass", or other plastic material which is susceptible to injection molding; or aluminum casting or compression molded fiberglass; or any other material which may be molded or cast. The inner surface of each piece is formed with a lattice-work of integral webs, so that when the pieces are fitted together they define a reinforcing honeycomb-like core.
Claims6
In a skateboard which comprises a platform and wheels mounted at each end of the platform, said platform being formed of a top piece and a bottom piece, each of the two pieces having intersecting lattice-work formed integral with the inner surface thereof, said pieces being fitted to one another to cause the lattice work of each piece to be contiguous to one another and to form a reinforcing honeycomb-like cellular core therebetween, a plurality of bushings formed integral with one of the pieces, and a plurality of nipples formed integral with the other of the pieces to be received in the bushings when the pieces are fitted together, and a plurality of screws extending through one of the pieces and through the nipples to be received in corresponding ones of said bushings to hold the two pieces together.
