Benefits of technology

[0001]The object of the present patent of invention is to present new edges for skis, snowboards and ice skates, that with the incorporation of more than one edge will increase the grip when turning and braking.

Problems solved by technology

Both snow and ice do not offer a uniform surface as the hardness and homogeneity vary according to temperature, humidity and wind.
If this inclination goes past the point of maximum grip, the grip power will decrease and this situation could cause a loss of control or provoke a fall.
The edges that currently exist have partially achieved to increase control and safety, but present the limitation of having only one edge and the limitations that this implies.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]In order to mitigate or eliminate the above mentioned problems, this new type of edge is presented to be used for skis, snowboards and ice skates, that with the incorporation of more than one edge achieves a greater grip when turning and braking.

[0015]When increasing the number of edges, a greater grip on the surface is achieved.

[0016]The combination of the number of edges and the alignment of the edges (in a straight line or curved) is to be determined by the skiing or skating technique that is to be executed. Aligning the edges in a straight line might be more appropriate for making short and powerful turns while the curved alignment might be better adapted for long and high speed turns.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017]In order to complement the description, and to help understanding the characteristics of the invention, enclosed you will find in this descriptive memorandum and as integral part of the same, a series of drawings in which, in an illustrative sense and not limi...

Abstract

Edges for skis snowboard and skates that with the incorporation of more than one edge allow for an increased grip when turning and braking.It has a special application in the sports sector where you move over snow or ice, where edges of these characteristics are required.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION[0001]The object of the present patent of invention is to present new edges for skis, snowboards and ice skates, that with the incorporation of more than one edge will increase the grip when turning and braking.[0002]This new type of edges for skis, snowboards and ice skates has a special application in the sport sector in which you slide on snow or ice, where you would require edges with these characteristics.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The edges for skis, snowboards and skates have two things in common:[0004]1. Reduce the friction with the surface to increase speed.[0005]2. Assure the grip to the surface when turning and braking.[0006]To assure the grip to the surface when turning and braking, metallic edges are currently used, and in some cases these are strengthened by different types of treatments or combining different materials in the manufacturing process, but in all cases there is only one edge.[0007]The evolution in the use of different material...
