Abstract
The invention relates to a board-type runner device (1), in particular a ski (2) or a snowboard, comprising several layers disposed between a running surface lining (25) and a top layer (24), with a top belt (31) lying closest to the top layer (24) and/or a bottom belt (32) lying closest to the running surface lining (25) of a highly tensile material. In conjunction with a core disposed between the layers, these layers form a multi-layered element and at least one profiled section (12, 13) is provided in the core. At least a part-region of the outer surface of the profiled section (12, 13) is embedded or inlaid in a layer (44, 45) of an elastic synthetic material, preferably a layer (44, 45) of expanded synthetic material above the profiled section (12, 13) that is flexible and elastically resilient under the action of forces.
Claims23
A ski or snowboard comprising several layers disposed between a running surface lining and a top layer contoured to form at least two raised areas extending in a longitudinal direction and defining a recess therebetween, including a top belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the top layer and a bottom belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the running surface lining, the layers forming a multi-layer element with a profiled section disposed between the top belt and the bottom belt below each one of the raised areas;
- the outer surface of the profiled section being embedded in, and completely surrounded by, a layer of an elastic expanded synthetic material that is flexible and elastically resilient relative to the profiled section under pressure;
- a top face of the ski or snowboard opposite the running surface lining having a contour consisting of the raised areas and recess, the cross-sectional shape or dimension of the profiled sections at least approximately conforming to the raised areas and recess of the top face contour, and the cross-sectional shape or dimension being a factor determining the top face contour.
A ski or snowboard comprising several layers disposed between a running surface lining and a top layer, including a top belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the top layer and a bottom belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the running surface lining, the layers forming a multi-layer element with at least one hollow tubular section with a closed shell surface disposed between the top belt and the bottom belt, the at least one hollow tubular section being received in an outer tubular section which is flattened at the ends thereof and the at least one hollow tubular section being shorter than the outer tubular section;
- at least a part-region of the outer surface of the at least one hollow tubular section being embedded in a layer of an elastic synthetic material that is flexible and elastically resilient relative to the at least one hollow tubular section under pressure, the layer of elastic synthetic material being arranged between the at least one hollow tubular section and the outer tubular section;
- a top face of the ski or snowboard opposite the running surface lining having a contour consisting of at least one raised area and recess, the cross-sectional shape or dimension of the at least one hollow tubular section at least approximately conforming to the at least one raised area and recess of the top face contour, and the cross-sectional shape or dimension being a factor determining the top face contour.
A ski or snowboard comprising several layers disposed between a running surface lining and a top layer, including a top belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the top layer and a bottom belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the running surface lining, the layers forming a multi-layer element with at least one profiled section disposed between the top belt and the bottom belt;
- at least a part-region of the outer surface of the at least one profiled section being embedded in a layer of an elastic synthetic material that is flexible and elastically resilient relative to the at least one profiled section under pressure, the at least one profiled section directly abutting an underside of the top belt and being spaced apart by the layer of elastic synthetic material from the bottom belt and lower layers of the multi-layer element;
- a top face of the ski or snowboard opposite the running surface lining having a contour consisting of at least one raised area and recess, the cross-sectional shape or dimension of the at least one hollow tubular section at least approximately conforming to the at least one raised area and recess of the top face contour, and the cross-sectional shape or dimension being a factor determining the top face contour.
A ski or snowboard comprising several layers disposed between a running surface lining and a top layer, including a top belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the top layer and a bottom belt of a high-tensile material laying closest to the running surface lining, the layers forming a multi-layer element with at least one profiled section disposed between the top belt and the bottom belt, the cross-sectional width of the at least one profiled section being approximately 10% to 40% of the width of the ski or snowboard;
- at least a part-region of the outer surface of the at least one profiled section being embedded in a layer of an elastic synthetic material that is flexible and elastically resilient relative to the at least one profiled section under pressure;
- a top face of the ski or snowboard opposite the running surface lining having a contour consisting of at least one raised area and recess, the cross-sectional shape or dimension of the at least one hollow tubular section at least approximately conforming to the at least one raised area and recess of the top face contour, and the cross-sectional shape or dimension being a factor determining the top face contour.
