Benefits of technology

[0024] Advantageously, the pole that is the subject of the invention makes it possible to simplify the construction technique of poles with composite struct

Problems solved by technology

A first drawback is constituted by the fact that said pole is difficult to construct, since it is necessary to process with great precision at least two of the tubular elements that are coaxially coupled to each other in order to obtain the desired mutual connection.
Another drawback lies in that the tubular body of the pole offers uniform resistance on its entire cross section and the

Embodiment Construction

[0034] The pole for sporting activities that is the subject of the invention is shown in FIG. 1, where it is indicated as a whole by 1 and where it can be observed that it comprises a tubular body 2 provided at one end 2a with a tip 3 and at the opposite end 2b with a handgrip 4.

[0035] According to the invention and with reference to the cross section shown in FIG. 5, the tubular body 2 comprises: [0036] a tubular element 5 that develops mainly longitudinally and whose cross section has a closed profile; [0037] at least one shaped element 6 fitted inside the tubular element 5 and whose cross section has an open profile.

[0038] It can be observed that the tubular element 5 has a circular profile in cross section, while the shaped element 6 has a C-shaped profile.

[0039] In other embodiments of the invention the tubular element and the shaped element may have cross section profiles different from the circular profile and the C-shaped profile.

Abstract

The invention is a pole for sporting activities of the type comprising a tubular body provided at one end with a tip and at the opposite end with a handgrip, wherein the tubular body comprises a tubular element developing mainly in longitudinal direction and having a closed profile in cross section, and at least one shaped element developing mainly in longitudinal direction fitted inside the tubular element and having an open profile in cross section. Between the outer surface of the shaped element and the inner surface of the tubular element opposing each other there is a filling structure.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention concerns a pole for sporting activities, particularly suited to be used for activities like skiing, trekking and the like. [0002] It is known that the poles that are used in the sporting activities mentioned above substantially comprise a tubular body that develops longitudinally and is provided at one end with a tip that is pushed against the ground and at the opposite end with a handgrip that is held by the user. [0003] The tubular body of the pole is generally made of aluminium or an aluminium alloy, but the most modern versions use also highly technological materials, like for example carbon. [0004] However, it is indispensable for the tubular body of the pole to be light and above all resistant, due to the fact that during use it is subjected to particularly heavy stress. [0005] For this reason poles have been designed, whose tubular body is made of a composite material, like for example the pole described in patent DE 20220186U....
