Abstract
An ice blade assembly includes a hollow base frame including an upper wall with two sides, a side wall extending downward from each side of the upper wall, and a pair of spaced retaining ribs projecting downward from an underside of the upper wall and extending toward each other, defining a space therebetween. Each side wall includes an upper section and a lower section, the upper sections being dimensioned to be securely received in a space defined by two parallel mounting ribs extending from an underside of an upper structure of a skate, the lower sections defining a passage in alignment with the space. An ice blade passes through the passage, with an upper edge thereof securely mounted between the retaining ribs and with a mediate section thereof retained between the passage.
Claims4
An ice blade assembly for being attached to a pair of parallel mounting ribs at an underside of a skate, said ice blade assembly comprising:
- a hollow base frame including an upper wall with two sides, a side wall extending downward from each said side of said upper wall and along a longitudinal direction of said mounting ribs, and a pair of spaced retaining ribs projecting downwardly from an underside of said upper wall, inwardly spaced from said side walls, and extending toward each other to define a space therebetween, each said side wall including an upper section and a lower section, said upper sections being dimensioned to be securely received between said mounting ribs, said lower sections converging toward each other to define a passage therebetween in alignment with said space defined by said retaining ribs;
- and
- an ice blade passing through said passage, with an upper edge thereof securely mounted between said retaining ribs and with a mediate section thereof retained between said passage.
