Abstract

Abstract Ski with a core of light-weight material, preferably of specific gravity from 0.1 to 0.25, and an outer sheathing composed of a reinforced synthetic plastics material. The core has an internal reinforcement of relatively narrow ribs of unreinforced plastics material with a wall thickness less than 1.5 mm and preferably about 0.5 mm extending substantially at right angles to its upper side and/or its under side directly unified with the plastics material of the sheathing.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 171 words
Ski comprising a core of light-weight material and an outer sheathing composed of a reinforced synthetic plastics material, said core having an internal reinforcement of relatively narrow ribs extending substantially at right angles to at least one of its upper side and its under side, and directly unified with said plastics material of said sheathing, wherein said ribs consist of unreinforced synthetic plastics material being filled in narrow grooves formed in said core and said ribs having a wall thickness less than 1.5 mm and preferably about 0.5 mm, and wherein corner edges of the core over substantially the whole length of the ski are chamfered enabling said edges to be strengthened with a thickness of about 2 - 3 mm of said reinforced synthetic plastics material of said sheathing, said core at the ends of said ski being narrower than at the middle of the ski to permit said reinforced synthetic plastics material of said sheathing to form a substitute protective layer for edges of said ski at said ends.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 171 words
Ski comprising a core of light-weight material and an outer sheathing composed of a reinforced synthetic plastics material, said core having an internal reinforcement of relatively narrow ribs extending substantially at right angles to at least one of its upper side and its under side, and directly unified with said plastics material of said sheathing, wherein said ribs consist of unreinforced synthetic plastics material being filled in narrow grooves formed in said core and said ribs having a wall thickness less than 1.5 mm and preferably about 0.5 mm, and wherein corner edges of the core over substantially the whole length of the ski are chamfered enabling said edges to be strengthened with a thickness of about 2 - 3 mm of said reinforced synthetic plastics material of said sheathing, said core at the ends of said ski being narrower than at the middle of the ski to permit said reinforced synthetic plastics material of said sheathing to form a substitute protective layer for edges of said ski at said ends.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
Ski according to claim 1, wherein said outer sheathing and said ribs share the same synthetic plastics material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
Ski according to claim 1, wherein said ribs have a depth of at least 1 mm with a maximum depth at the centre of the ski and a minimum depth at the ends of the ski and a mutual spacing of up to 20 mm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
Ski according to claim 3, wherein said depth is from 2 to 7 mm and said mutual spacing is approximately 5 mm.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
Ski according to claim 1, wherein said light-weight material has a specific gravity of from 0.1 to 0.25.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
Ski according to claim 5, wherein said light-weight material is balsa wood.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
Ski according to claim 5, wherein said light-weight material is a synthetic plastics foam material selected from the group consisting of acrylimide and polyurethane foam materials.
