[0001] Snow gliding device for gliding on snow

[0002] The invention relates to a snow sliding device for sliding on snow, comprising a board-like or board-shaped base body defining a longitudinal axis with an upper side and a lower side, wherein the base body has a sliding surface on the lower side for sliding on snow.

[0003] Such snow-gliding devices are known from the state of the art in various designs, e.g., snowboards, skis, or snow skates, and have been continually developed to offer users the best possible riding characteristics. Improving the riding characteristics of such snow-gliding devices, in turn, provides the basis for executing simple and / or challenging riding maneuvers—depending on the user's skill level—such as cornering, jumps, grinds, etc.

[0004] Although various snow gliding devices exist that generally meet the requirements of both inexperienced and experienced users, further improved driving characteristics are desired in order to further enhance the driving experience of both inexperienced and experienced users, for example with regard to the execution of certain driving maneuvers.

[0005] Based on this, the present invention is based on the object of providing an improved snow sliding device for sliding on snow.

[0006] The object is achieved by a snow sliding device according to independent claim 1, the dependent claims relating to this relate to possible embodiments of the snow sliding device according to independent claim 1.

[0007] A first aspect of the invention relates to a snow gliding device for gliding on snow. The snow gliding device is thus fundamentally designed as a device that enables a user, at least with appropriate practice, to glide on snow in a controlled manner. During intended use, the user typically stands with at least one leg on the snow gliding device; for this purpose, as explained in more detail below, the snow gliding device can have at least one fastening interface for a binding that is configured to attach a boot, e.g., a snowboard boot or a ski boot, to the snow gliding device. Specific embodiments of the snow gliding device described herein are a snowboard, a ski, or a snow skate; the snow gliding device described herein can thus be designed, for example, as a snowboard, a ski, or a snow skate.

[0008] The snow sliding device comprises a board-like or -shaped base body defining a longitudinal axis or direction and a transverse axis or transverse direction, with an upper and a lower side. The base body can also be referred to or considered a base board. The base body can have a core or a core structure made of a single- or multi-layer, optionally sandwich-like, core material or a single- or multi-layer, optionally sandwich-like, core material structure; a corresponding core material can be or comprise, for example, wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material. A corresponding core material structure can be or comprise, for example, a material structure comprising wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material.

[0009] On the underside of the base body, a sliding surface or a running surface, sometimes also referred to as a "base," for sliding on snow is arranged or formed at least in sections, in particular completely. The underside of the base body is thus provided at least in sections, in particular completely, with a sliding surface or a running surface for sliding on snow. A corresponding sliding surface or a corresponding running surface can be formed, for example, from graphite, plastic, in particular a polyethylene-based plastic, or metal, or can comprise at least one of the aforementioned materials.

[0010] At least one structural body is arranged on the upper side of the base body. The at least one structural body has at least one first spring region having elastic-resilient properties, which is formed by at least one first curvature (longitudinal curvature) extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body. The snow sliding device therefore has a configuration with a corresponding base body, on the upper side of which at least one separate or separate structural body is arranged, which is formed by at least one first spring region having elastic-resilient properties or has such a structural body, which at least one first spring region is formed by at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body. The configuration of the snow sliding device therefore provides that on the base body, ieOn the upper side of the base body, at least one structural body is arranged, which has at least one first spring region that has elastic-resilient properties and is thus elastically resilient under appropriate loading or force application, which is formed by at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body. The at least one structural body, ie in particular the at least one first spring region, can also be referred to or considered as a first spring body due to its elastic-resilient properties.

[0011] The at least one first curvature is typically a convex curvature; the at least one structural body therefore has, at least due to the first spring region formed by the at least one first curvature, a surface that is curved outwards, in particular with respect to the upper side of the base body; the snow sliding device is thus higher than conventional snow sliding devices, at least with regard to the maximum height extension.

[0012] The at least one structural body can in principle be formed from the same material or the same material structure as the base body, i.e. in particular as the core or the core structure of the base body, and thus differ from the base body in particular by its geometric configuration, i.e. in particular the at least one first curvature. Alternatively, the at least one structural body can be formed from a different material or a different material structure than the base body, i.e. in particular as the core or the core structure of the base body, and thus differ from the base body not only by its geometric configuration, i.e. in particular by the at least one first curvature, but also by its "materiality".

[0013] The at least one structural body, i.e., in particular, the at least one first spring region, is expediently formed from an elastically resilient material or from an elastically resilient material structure, in particular a multi-layer elastically resilient material structure. Specifically, the at least one structural body, i.e., in particular, the at least one first spring region, can be formed, for example, from wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material; a design comprising a single- or multi-layer material structure comprising wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material, is also conceivable.

[0014] The at least one first curvature forming the at least one first spring region of the at least one structural body is characterized in particular by a radius extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body, in particular by a radius not present in the base body, so that the at least one structural body fundamentally differs from the base body, in particular by the radius. The radius can, for example, be in a range between 1750 mm and 1950 mm, in particular in a range between 1800 mm and 1900 mm. Tests have shown that for versions for women, a radius in a range between 1825 mm and 1875 mm, in particular of approximately 1855 mm, and for men, a radius in a range between 1875 mm and 1915 mm, in particular of approximately 1895 mm, can be advantageous. The at least one structural body can, for example, be designed in a web-like or bar-shaped manner.Specifically, the at least one structural body can be formed, for example, by at least one single-layer or multi-layer board having a corresponding first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and thus a corresponding first spring region, or by at least one single-layer or multi-layer plate having a corresponding first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and thus a corresponding first spring region. The at least one structural body can therefore be formed by a board that is at least partially, in particular predominantly, if necessary completely, formed with a curvature or curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and thus have a board-like or shaped geometry, or by at least partially, in particular predominantly, if necessary completely, formed with a curvature or curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body.A plate can be formed with a curvature and thus have a plate-like or plate-shaped geometry.

[0015] Irrespective of the specific geometry of the at least one structural body or of the first spring region, the structural body, as will become apparent below, can be fastened or is fastened to the base body, ie in particular on or at its upper side, via one or more fastening points or regions, in particular via one or more first fastening points or regions and via one or more second fastening points or regions.

[0016] Also conceivable are embodiments of the at least one structural body with a plurality of corresponding boards or plates, e.g., arranged side by side, behind, and / or one above the other. The at least one structural body can thus also comprise a plurality of corresponding boards or plates arranged side by side, behind, and / or one above the other, possibly stacked, in particular in order to specifically influence its structural properties, i.e., in particular, its elastic-spring properties and its rigidity.

[0017] However, the snow sliding device is not only characterized by at least one structural body arranged on the upper side of the base body, which has at least one first spring region formed by at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and having elastic-resilient properties, but also by the fact that the base body has at least one second spring region formed by at least one second curvature extending in the transverse direction of the base body and having elastic-resilient properties. Thus, the base body also has at least one spring region (second spring region) formed by at least one curvature (second curvature) and having elastic-resilient properties, wherein the at least one second curvature, in contrast to the at least one first curvature, does not extend in the longitudinal direction of the base body, but in the transverse direction.Transverse direction of the base body. The directions of extension of the at least one first curvature of the structural body and the at least one second curvature of the base body are thus orthogonal to one another, resulting in special structural properties, ie in particular elastic-spring properties, of the snow sliding device as a whole.

[0018] By providing at least one corresponding structural body on the upper side of the base body and by providing at least one second spring region on the side of the base body, the structural properties, i.e. in particular the elastic-spring properties and the rigidity, and thus also the driving properties or driving behavior of the snow gliding device can be significantly influenced, for example by imparting a certain elasticity, in particular in the direction of a normal to the upper side of the base body, and rigidity, in particular in the direction of the longitudinal and / or transverse axis of the base body. The elasticity and rigidity that can be realized or is realized by means of the at least one first curvature on the side of the structural body and the at least one second curvature on the side of the base body result in various advantages for both inexperienced and experienced users.It is essential that the at least one first curvature on the side of the structural body, and thus the first spring region, is coordinated with the at least one second curvature on the side of the base body, and thus the second spring region, and vice versa, in order to synergistically realize special properties of the snow sliding device. The geometric-structural properties of the at least one first curvature on the side of the structural body, and thus the first spring region, are thus selected taking into account the geometric-structural properties of the at least one second curvature, and thus the second spring region, and vice versa, which synergistically results in special structural properties, i.e. in particular special elastic-spring properties and special rigidity, of the snow sliding device.

[0019] The resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device thus arise from the combination of the geometric and structural properties of the base body and the at least one structural body arranged on its upper side. The configuration of the snow-gliding device with at least one structural body arranged on the upper side of the base body thus opens up significantly improved driving characteristics compared to conventionally configured snow-gliding devices with regard to the achievable structural properties—which, as mentioned, include, in particular, particular elasticity and rigidity, and thus also particular bending or torsional properties in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction of the base body—and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow-gliding device.The improved handling characteristics of the snow gliding device can, in turn, have a positive effect on the execution of certain driving maneuvers; specifically, the increased elastic-spring properties can improve takeoffs and landings, for example. The snow gliding device can thus, for example, exhibit more "pop" and / or "flex" than conventional snow gliding devices. In any case, the "pop" and / or "flex" of the snow gliding device, this applies in particular to snowboards, can be specifically influenced through the interaction of the base body equipped with the second spring region and the at least one structural body arranged on top of the base body and equipped with the first spring region, thus the coordinated design of the first and second spring regions.

[0020] In addition to the combination of the respective structural properties of the base body and the at least one structural body, aspects such as the specific dimensions of the at least one structural body, in particular relative to the dimensions of the base body, the shape of the at least one structural body, the orientation and / or position of the at least one structural body relative to the base body as well as the number, dimensions and arrangement of the contact surfaces of the at least one structural body on the base body are also of importance for the resulting structural properties and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow sliding device.Therefore, the described configuration of the snow gliding device also makes it possible to specifically influence the resulting structural properties and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow gliding device not only through the respective structural properties, but also through other aspects, in particular those mentioned above.

[0021] As will become apparent below, during intended use, a user typically stands not on the base body, but on at least one structural body. The configuration of the snow gliding device thus also allows a user to stand at a higher level than with conventional configurations, which can also have a positive effect on the riding characteristics.

[0022] In specific embodiments, the interaction of the base body having the at least one second spring region and the structural body arranged or fastened on its upper side and having the at least one first spring region can result in the snow sliding device being able to exhibit special torsional or winding behavior; for example, the special torsional or winding behavior of the snow sliding device can enable twisting of up to 45° in or around the longitudinal axis of the base body. The at least one structural body can act as an additional lever which, in particular with regard to the execution of certain driving maneuvers such as cornering, jibs, jumps, grinds, etc., not only leads to or supports improved driving characteristics, but also compensates for orenables compensation for any driving errors, which can lead to falls being avoided or at least reduced; this can result, for example, from the fact that the described configuration of the snow gliding device makes it possible to compensate for tilting while driving, e.g. by "levering back" to an original position. As a user, as mentioned, typically does not stand on the base body but rather elevated on at least one structural body, cornering is also made easier or supported, so that cornering or corresponding turns can be initiated with reduced effort; the configuration of the snow gliding device can therefore include a type of "power steering", which makes it easier for inexperienced users to learn and enhances their driving experience.

[0023] Overall, there is an improved snow gliding device for gliding on snow.

[0024] The at least one structural body, in particular the at least one first spring region, typically has elastic-resilient recovery properties with respect to forces directed or acting on the upper side of the base body, in particular weight forces. The elastic-resilient recovery properties typically result from the at least one first curvature. The first spring region formed by the at least one first curvature thus acts like a leaf spring or gives the structural body the properties of a leaf spring. The elastic-resilient recovery properties of the at least one structural body, ie in particular of the at least one first spring region, can therefore not only be determined by the elastic-resilient properties of the material forming the at least one structural body or the material structure forming the at least one structural body, but in particular also by the specific geometric configuration, iein particular the radius which sets at least a first curvature.

[0025] In an analogous manner, the at least one second spring region can have elastic-resilient recovery properties with respect to forces directed or acting on the upper side of the base body, in particular weight forces. The elastic-resilient recovery properties typically result from the at least one second curvature. The second spring region formed by the at least one second curvature can therefore act like a leaf spring or imparts the properties of a leaf spring to the base body. The elastic-resilient recovery properties of the at least one second spring region can therefore be adjusted not only by the elastic-resilient properties of the material forming the base body or the material structure forming the base body, but in particular also by the specific geometric configuration, i.e. in particular the radius, of the at least one second curvature.

[0026] Between the upper side of the base body and the at least one structural body, in particular the at least one spring region formed by the at least one first curvature, a free space is typically formed which is curved in the longitudinal direction of the base body, in particular arch-like or arch-shaped when viewed in the longitudinal direction, and possibly dome-like or dome-shaped when viewed three-dimensionally. The dimensions of the free space, i.e. in particular the maximum distance of the free space from the upper side of the base body or the maximum height of the free space defined by the dimensions of the at least one first curvature, can also influence the driving characteristics of the snow sliding device, as they can affect, for example, the damping properties or damping behavior of the at least one structural body.

[0027] Specifically, the free space can, for example, have a maximum distance or a maximum height relative to the top side of the base body of 10 cm, in particular 9 cm, further in particular 8 cm, further in particular 7 cm, further in particular 6 cm, further in particular 5 cm, further in particular 4 cm, further in particular 3 cm, further in particular 2 cm, further in particular 1 cm. As will become apparent below, the maximum distance or the maximum height of the free space can be varied, in particular under corresponding loading, for example by specifically changing the arrangement of one or more front first fastening points or regions relative to one or more rear first fastening points or regions of the at least one structural body, or vice versa, on the top side of the base body. This can optionally also be achieved by a floating fastening orStorage of at least one structural body on the base body must be supported.

[0028] The dimensions of the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region in the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device, and thus its longitudinal extent, are typically selected with regard to the dimensions of the base body in the longitudinal direction and thus its longitudinal extent. The dimensions of the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region in the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device, and thus its longitudinal extent, are typically smaller than the dimensions of the base body in the longitudinal direction and thus its longitudinal extent; the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region is thus typically shorter than the base body, in particular with respect to the respective maximum longitudinal extent.

[0029] For example, the at least one structural body can have a maximum length dimension which corresponds to at least 15%, in particular at least 20%, further in particular at least 25%, in particular at least 30%, further in particular at least 35%, further in particular at least 40%, further in particular at least 45%, further in particular at least 50%, further in particular at least 55%, further in particular at least 60%, further in particular at least 65%, further in particular at least 70%, further in particular at least 75%, further in particular at least 80%, further in particular at least 85%, further in particular at least 90%, further in particular at least 95%, of the maximum length dimension of the base body.The selection of the maximum length dimension of the at least one structural body and / or the degree of coverage of the base body by the at least one structural body also provides a measure for specifically influencing the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device. Of course, the maximum length dimension of the at least one structural body can vary depending on the specific design of the snow-gliding device; for designs of the snow-gliding device as a ski, the length dimension of the at least one structural body should be at least 15 cm, e.g., to enable the proper attachment of a ski binding.

[0030] With regard to the arrangement of the at least one structural body on the upper side of the base body, the at least one structural body can, in principle, be arranged in any region of the upper side of the base body. The selection of the location of the arrangement of the at least one structural body on the upper side of the base body, in particular in combination with a specific length dimension of the at least one structural body, also provides a measure for specifically influencing the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0031] In the longitudinal direction, the base body can have a first base body section having a first free end, a second base body section having a second free end, and a third base body section arranged between the first and second base body sections. The third base body section can, for example, occupy at least 25%, in particular at least 30%, further in particular at least 35%, further in particular at least 40%, further in particular at least 45%, further in particular at least 50%, further in particular at least 55%, further in particular at least 60%, further in particular at least 65%, further in particular at least 70%, further in particular at least 75%, further in particular at least 80%, further in particular at least 85%, further in particular at least 90%, further in particular at least 95% of the maximum length dimension of the base body.The at least one structural body can be arranged at least partially, in particular predominantly, if necessary completely, covering it within or above the third base body section.

[0032] The same applies to the width or transverse extent of the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device, i.e. in a direction of the snow sliding device extending transversely to the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device. Therefore, the dimensions of the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent are typically selected with regard to the dimensions of the main body in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent. The dimensions of the at least one structural body or of the at least one first spring region in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device are typically smaller than the dimensions of the main body in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent; the at least one structural body orThe at least one first spring region is thus typically narrower than the base body, in particular with respect to the respective maximum width or transverse extent.

[0033] The dimensions of the at least one second spring region in the width or transverse direction, and thus its width or transverse extent, can also be selected with regard to the dimensions of the base body in the width or transverse direction, and thus its width or transverse extent. The dimensions of the at least one second spring region in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device can correspond to the dimensions of the base body in the width or transverse direction, and thus its width or transverse extent. However, it is also conceivable for the dimensions of the at least one second spring region in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device to be smaller than the dimensions of the base body in the width or transverse direction, and thus its width or transverse extent; the at least second spring region can thus be narrower than the base body, in particular with respect to the respective maximum width or transverse extent.

[0034] The at least one structural body or the at least one first spring region can, as indicated, have a geometry defined by at least one length dimension and at least one width or transverse dimension. The width or transverse dimension of the at least one structural body or the at least one first spring region can be constant or variable along its length, i.e., decrease and / or increase. The same can apply to the at least one second spring region; thus, the width or transverse dimension of the at least one second spring region can be constant or variable along its length, i.e., decrease and / or increase.

[0035] The at least one structural body or the at least one first spring region can fundamentally have at least one first region, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body, and at least one second region, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and different from the first width dimension. The at least one structural body or the at least one first spring region can therefore have different widths or transverse dimensions; the shaping in the width or transverse direction, i.e. in particular the realization of regions of different widths or narrows, also represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.Specifically, the at least one structural body or the at least one first spring region can have at least one first region, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body, at least one second region, which can optionally also be referred to as a connecting or intermediate web, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and is smaller than the first width or transverse dimension, and a third region, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and is larger than the second width dimension. The width or transverse dimensions of the first and third regions can be the same or different.The at least one second region can be arranged or formed between the first and third regions in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the base body. The at least one structural body can thus have at least one waist due to three separate, possibly different, width or transverse dimensions; the realization of at least one corresponding waist, as well as its specific dimensions or shape, also represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device. This applies in particular to designs of the snow-gliding device as a snowboard or ski.

[0036] In corresponding embodiments of the at least one structural body with three regions, the at least one first spring region can be formed by the at least one second region or encompass this. The at least one second region can therefore be convexly curved. The at least one first curvature can therefore be formed by the at least one second region. The respective first and third regions, on the other hand, can be flat. The respective first and third regions can form first and second support or force introduction regions or corresponding support surfaces with which the at least one structural body rests on the upper side of the base body and via which forces acting on the at least one structural body can be introduced into the base body when the snow sliding device is in use.

[0037] The at least one second spring region can also fundamentally have at least one first region, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body, and at least one second region, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and different from the first width dimension. The at least one second spring region can therefore have different widths or transverse dimensions; the shaping in the width or transverse direction, i.e. in particular the realization of regions of different widths or narrows, also represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the base body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0038] Specifically, the at least one second spring region can have at least one first region, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body, at least one second region, which can optionally also be referred to as a connecting or intermediate web, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and is smaller than the first width or transverse dimension, and a third region, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body and is larger than the second width dimension. The width or transverse dimensions of the first and third regions can be the same or different. The at least one second region can be arranged or formed between the first and third regions in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the base body.The base body can therefore have at least one sidecut due to three separate, possibly different, width or transverse dimensions. The implementation of at least one corresponding sidecut, as well as its specific dimensions or shape, represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the base body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device. This applies in particular to snowboard or ski versions of the snow-gliding device.

[0039] At this point, it should be noted in general that the at least one structural body can rest directly on the upper side of the base body via corresponding support or force introduction areas or corresponding support surfaces; however, this is not absolutely necessary, because one or more, e.g., strip-like or strip-shaped, spacer elements can be arranged or formed between the at least one structural body and the upper side of the base body, so that the at least one structural body does not rest directly on the upper side of the base body, but on one or more corresponding spacer elements which rest directly on the upper side of the base body. The resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device can also be specifically influenced via the number, dimensions, arrangement and structural properties of the spacer elements. The dimensions of one or more spacer elements in the height direction, i.e.in a direction normal to the top side of the base body, the height and / or angular position of a user relative to the top side of the base body can also be influenced. Corresponding spacer elements can therefore, for example, have a height of 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, 16 mm, 17 mm, 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm or more. Corresponding spacer elements can, for example, be formed from an elastic-spring material or an elastic-spring material structure, which can also influence the elastic-spring properties of the snow sliding device. Corresponding spacer elements can, for example, be formed from an elastomer material or comprise such a material; In this way, damping properties can also be created or influenced, for example to improve landing behavior after a jump.

[0040] Likewise, a configuration of the at least one structural body with a plurality of second regions, each spaced apart from one another by at least one gap, is conceivable. One, a plurality of, or all of the second regions can be arranged aligned parallel to the longitudinal axis of the base body. Alternatively or additionally, one, a plurality of, or all of the second regions can be arranged aligned obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the base body. At least two of the plurality of second regions can be arranged aligned parallel to one another. At least two of the plurality of second regions can be identical or different in their dimensions in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction. Regardless of their orientation and / or position or their dimensions, the at least one spring region can be formed by or comprise the plurality of second regions spaced apart from one another by the at least one gap.Thus, the number, orientation, and / or position, in particular relative to the longitudinal axis of the base body and / or relative to each other, as well as the dimensions of the respective second regions, also provide a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device. This, in turn, applies in particular to designs of the snow-gliding device as a snowboard or ski.

[0041] In addition to the at least one first curvature, which, as mentioned, extends in the longitudinal direction of the base body, the at least one first spring region can also have at least one further curvature (transverse curvature) extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body. The at least one structural body can, at least as far as the second region is concerned, be a dome-like or dome-shaped component; thus, at least the at least one first spring region can be dome-like or dome-shaped due to the curvatures in the longitudinal and transverse directions. By forming the at least one first spring region with at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and at least one further curvature extending in the width or transverse direction,The further curvature extending transversely of the base body and the resulting three-dimensional shaping of the at least one structural body provide a further measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0042] The first and the further curvature of the at least one first spring region can be the same or different in their geometric parameters, i.e., in particular, their respective radii; the specific geometric parameters of the respective first and further curvatures also provide a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0043] In addition to the at least one second curvature, which, as mentioned, extends in the transverse direction of the base body, the at least one second spring region can also have at least one further curvature (longitudinal curvature) extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body. The at least one second spring region can, at least as far as the second region is concerned, be a dome-like or dome-shaped structure; thus, at least the at least one second spring region can be dome-like or dome-shaped due to the curvatures in the longitudinal and transverse directions. By forming the at least one second spring region with at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and at least one further curvature extending in the width or width direction, the at least one second spring region can be domed or domed.The further curvature extending transversely of the base body and the resulting three-dimensional shaping of the at least one second spring region provide a further measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the base body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0044] The first and the further curvature of the at least one second spring region can be identical or different in their geometric parameters, i.e., in particular, their respective radii; the specific geometric parameters of the respective first and further curvatures also provide a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the base body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device.

[0045] As mentioned above, the at least one structural body is typically fastened to the base body, i.e. in particular to the upper side of the base body. The at least one structural body can therefore have at least one first fastening interface for fastening the at least one structural body to the base body. A corresponding first fastening interface can, for example, be a positive and / or non-positive and / or material-locking fastening interface, so that the at least one structural body can be fastened to the base body via a positive and / or non-positive and / or material-locking fastening type. Positive and / or non-positive fastening types can, in particular, be a clamping, screwing, tensioning or snap-in fastening; corresponding fastening interfaces can therefore, for example, be clamping, screwing, tensioning or snap-in interfaces, so that, for example, at least sectionally by a screw ora screw bolt can be used. Material-locking fastening methods can in particular be adhesive or welded fastenings; corresponding fastening interfaces can therefore be adhesive or welded interfaces, so that, for example, adhesive or welded surfaces can be used. In particular, for form-fitting and / or force-fitting fastening methods, these can enable a fastening of the at least one structural body to the base body, which can be detachable if necessary (without causing damage or destruction). It can therefore be possible to fasten the or at least one structural body interchangeably to the base body, which in turn opens up the possibility of providing the snow sliding device with different structural properties by replacing a first structural body with a second structural body that has a different geometric-constructive configuration, for example.It is possible to configure the same base body for users with different riding abilities and / or for different riding situations. For example, in riding situations that involve a lot of jumps, such as in a halfpipe, a structural body that supports takeoffs and landings due to its structural properties and attachment to the top of the base body can be advantageous. However, in riding situations that involve a lot of cornering, such as snowboard cross, a structural body that supports cornering due to its structural properties and attachment to the top of the base body can be advantageous.

[0046] Specifically, the at least one structural body can have, in particular, at least one front first fastening interface for fastening the at least one structural body to the base body, which is arranged or formed in the region of a first or front structural body section facing a first free end of the base body, and at least one rear first fastening interface for fastening the at least one structural body to the base body, which is arranged or formed in the region of a second or rear structural body section facing a second free end of the base body.

[0047] The at least one front first fastening interface can enable the at least one structural body to be fastened so that it can move in at least one degree of freedom in a plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side of the base body. The at least one front first fastening interface can therefore be used to create a so-called floating fastening or mounting of the at least one structural body on the upper side of the base body, which in turn represents a measure for specifically influencing the driving characteristics of the snow gliding device. In concrete terms, cornering, for example, can be influenced in this way, as a user has additional degrees of freedom at his or her disposal in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when executing turns. Alternatively or additionally, the spring or restoring properties of the at least one structural body and thus, for example, the take-off orLanding behavior can be improved in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when performing jumps. Alternatively or additionally, the at least one rear first fastening interface can enable the at least one structural body to be attached so that it can move in at least one degree of freedom in a plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side of the base body. A so-called floating attachment or mounting of the at least one structural body on the upper side of the base body can therefore also be realized via the at least one rear first fastening interface, which likewise represents a measure for specifically influencing the driving characteristics of the snow gliding device. For example, cornering can also be influenced in such a way that a user has additional degrees of freedom at his or her disposal in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when performing turns.Alternatively or additionally, the spring or recovery properties of the at least one structural body and thus, for example, the take-off or landing behavior can be improved in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when performing jumps.

[0048] According to a specific exemplary embodiment, only the at least one rear first fastening interface, and optionally all rear first fastening interfaces, can enable a fastening of the at least one structural body that is movable in at least one degree of freedom of movement in a plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side of the main body, whereas the at least one front first fastening interface, and optionally all front first fastening interfaces, are fixedly fastened to the main body and thus not movable in at least one degree of freedom of movement in a plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side of the main body. In a corresponding arrangement, the at least one rear first fastening interface is therefore also mounted so as to be movable relative to the at least one front first fastening interface. An inverse configuration is also conceivable.

[0049] Specifically, the at least one front first fastening interface and / or the at least one rear fastening interface can, for example, enable the at least one structural body to be fastened to or on the base body in at least one translational degree of freedom in a translation axis oriented in or transverse to the longitudinal direction of the base body. At least one front first fastening interface and / or at least one rear first fastening interface can be displaced relative to the base body along a translation axis oriented in or transverse to the longitudinal direction of the base body. This can, for example, be realized via guide devices arranged or formed on or in the base body and / or the at least one structural body; corresponding guide devices can, for example, be designed as guide slots, within which, for example,Guide pins serving as fastening elements are mounted so as to engage therein. Corresponding guide slots can be arranged or formed, e.g., in a straight line or a curved line, in a direction parallel to the longitudinal and / or transverse axis of the base body or at an angle thereto, ie, in particular oblique, on or in the base body or the at least one structural body.

[0050] Alternatively or additionally, the at least one front first fastening interface and / or the at least one rear first fastening interface can enable the at least one structural body to be fastened to or on the base body in at least one rotational degree of freedom in a rotation axis oriented at right angles to the plane of movement. At least one front first fastening interface and / or at least one rear first fastening interface can thus be pivoted relative to the base body about a rotation axis oriented at right angles to the plane of movement. This can also be achieved, for example, via guide devices arranged or formed on or in the base body and / or the at least one structural body; corresponding guide devices can in turn be, for example, guide slots, within which, for example,Guide pins serving as fastening elements are mounted so as to engage therein. Corresponding guide slots can be arranged or formed, e.g., in a straight line or a curved line, in a direction parallel to the transverse axis of the base body or at an angle thereto, ie, in particular obliquely, on or in the base body or the at least one structural body.

[0051] The at least one front first fastening interface and / or the at least one rear first fastening interface can be arranged or formed, for example, in the region of a structural body section forming a flat support on the upper side of the base body, i.e., for example, in a first and / or third region of the structural body mentioned above. In this way, a stable fastening of the at least one structural body to the base body can be realized despite the at least one translational and / or rotational degree of freedom of movement of the at least one structural body relative to the base body.

[0052] As mentioned above, the snow-gliding device can have at least one fastening interface for a binding, such as a snowboard or ski binding, via which a boot, i.e., a snowboard boot or a ski boot, can be fastened to the snow-gliding device. A corresponding fastening interface can be arranged or formed, in particular, on the at least one structural body. Thus, in all embodiments, the at least one structural body can have at least one second fastening interface for attaching a binding for a user.In particular, the at least one structural body can have one or more second fastening interfaces for fastening a first binding, which are arranged or formed in the region of a structural body section facing a first free end (front free end) of the base body, as well as one or more second fastening interfaces for fastening a second binding, which are arranged or formed in the region of a structural body section facing a second free end (rear free end) of the base body. This applies in particular to snowboard designs.

[0053] A corresponding second fastening interface can, for example, be a positive and / or non-positive fastening interface, so that a binding can be fastened to the at least one structural body via a positive and / or non-positive fastening type. In particular, positive and / or non-positive fastening types can enable a fastening of the binding to the at least one structural body that can be detachably fastened, if necessary (without causing damage or destruction). Positive and / or non-positive fastening types can, in particular, be a clamping, screwing, tensioning, or snap-in fastening; corresponding fastening interfaces can therefore, for example, be clamping, screwing, tensioning, or snap-in interfaces, so that, for example, openings that can be penetrated at least in sections by a screw or bolt come into consideration.

[0054] A further measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the at least one structural body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device can be implemented in that the at least one structural body has one or more influencing structures that locally influence the elastic-spring properties in at least one direction, in particular in the longitudinal direction and / or in the transverse direction of the base body, in particular in the form of local stiffeners and / or weakeners. Corresponding local stiffeners can be realized, for example, through geometric-structural parameters, such as (in comparison) greater wall thicknesses, material accumulations, stiffening geometries, such as rib geometries, etc. Analogously, corresponding local weakenings can be realized, for example, through geometric-structural parameters, such as (in comparison) smaller wall thicknesses, material reductions, weakening geometries, such asOpenings, etc. can be realized.

[0055] In addition to the at least one structural body, the base body can also be configured in a special way in order to improve the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device and thus its driving characteristics. For example, the base body can have, in the longitudinal direction, a first base body section having a first free end, a second base body section having a second free end, and a third base body section arranged between the first and the second base body section, wherein the third base body section has the at least second curvature and thus forms the second spring region. The third base body section can therefore have a second spring region formed by the at least one second curvature extending in the longitudinal and / or transverse extent of the base body and having elastic-resilient properties. The second spring region can, for example,be formed by a comparatively smaller wall thickness of the base body. Specifically, the at least one second spring region of the base body can thus be formed, for example, by a depression extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body, in particular a trough-like or trough-shaped depression, and / or by an elevation extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body.

[0056] A corresponding depression and / or elevation can have a maximum length dimension which corresponds to at least 15%, in particular at least 20%, further in particular at least 25%, in particular at least 30%, further in particular at least 35%, further in particular at least 40%, further in particular at least 45%, further in particular at least 50%, further in particular at least 55%, further in particular at least 60%, further in particular at least 65%, further in particular at least 70%, further in particular at least 75%, further in particular at least 80%, further in particular at least 85%, further in particular at least 90%, further in particular at least 95%, of the maximum length dimension of the base body.By selecting the maximum length dimension of the recess and / or elevation, a measure is provided to specifically influence the structural properties of the base body and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device. Of course, the maximum length dimension of the recess and / or elevation can vary depending on the specific design of the snow-gliding device.

[0057] The width or transverse dimension of the depression and / or elevation can be constant or variable along its longitudinal and / or transverse extent, i.e., decrease and / or increase. The depth of the depression and / or the height of the elevation can also be constant or variable along its longitudinal and / or transverse extent, i.e., decrease and / or increase. In general, a corresponding depression and / or elevation can therefore have a cross-sectional geometry that is constant or variable in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction.

[0058] A corresponding recess or elevation in the base body is typically formed on the upper side of the base body. This is primarily due to the fact that the underside of the base body, which is provided with the sliding surface or running surface, can then be easily processed, for example, for service and / or repair purposes, as with conventional snow sliding devices.

[0059] The second spring region or the at least one second curvature forming it can be integrated into the base body at least partially, optionally completely. In particular, the second spring region or the at least one second curvature forming it can be formed by a core structure of the base body, which has at least one second curvature extending transversely of the base body. The second spring region can thus be formed by a core structure of the base body arranged between the top and bottom sides of the base body, which core structure has at least one second curvature extending transversely of the base body.

[0060] With regard to the nature of the at least one first curvature and the at least one second curvature, it is true that they can be designed in opposite directions. Thus, for example, the at least one first spring region can have at least one convex curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body, and the at least one second spring region can have at least one concave curvature extending in the transverse direction of the base body. However, a configuration in which the at least one first curvature and the at least one second curvature are of the same type is also conceivable in principle.

[0061] Specifically, the at least one first spring region can thus have at least one convex curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body, and the at least one second spring region can be formed by a core structure of the base body, which has at least one concave curvature extending in the transverse direction of the base body. Such a configuration of the snow sliding device was surprisingly distinguished in tests by particularly advantageous properties with regard to driving characteristics and behavior.

[0062] A second aspect of the invention relates to a method for producing a snow sliding device according to the first aspect of the invention. The method comprises, in particular, the following steps: providing a board-shaped base body defining a longitudinal axis and having an upper and a lower side, wherein the base body has, on the lower side, a sliding surface for sliding on snow and at least one second spring region formed by at least one second curvature extending in the transverse extent of the base body and having elastic-spring properties; and fastening at least one structural body on the upper side of the base body, wherein the at least one structural body has at least one spring region formed by at least one first curvature extending in the longitudinal extent of the base body and having elastic-spring properties.All statements relating to the snow sliding device apply analogously to the procedure and vice versa.

[0063] The invention is explained again below with reference to the embodiments shown in the figures; in which:

[0064] Fig. 1 - 5 each show a schematic diagram of a snow sliding device according to an embodiment;

[0065] Fig. 6 - 12 each show schematic diagrams of a snow sliding device according to further embodiments; and Fig. 13 and 14 each show a schematic diagram of a base body of a snow sliding device according to an embodiment.

[0066] Figs. 1-5 each show a schematic diagram of a snow sliding device 10 according to an exemplary embodiment. The snow sliding device 10 is shown in Fig. 1 in a perspective view, in Fig. 2 in a top view, and in Fig. 3 in a side view. Figs. 4 and 5 show enlarged views of details IV and V in Fig. 2.

[0067] The snow gliding device 10 is designed as a device that enables a user, at least with appropriate practice, to glide on snow in a controlled manner. During intended use, the user typically stands with at least one leg on the snow gliding device 10; for this purpose, as explained in more detail below, the snow gliding device 10 can have at least one (second) attachment interface for a binding, which is configured to attach a boot, e.g., a snowboard boot, to the snow gliding device 10.

[0068] In the embodiments shown in the figures, the snow gliding device 10 is configured as a snowboard; however, the following explanations apply analogously to other embodiments of the snow gliding device 10, such as, for example, ski or snow skate versions.

[0069] The snow sliding device 10 comprises a board-like or -shaped base body 20 defining a longitudinal axis A1 or direction and a transverse axis A2 or transverse direction, having a top side 21 and a bottom side 22. The base body 20 can also be referred to or considered as a base board and can have a core or a core structure 28 made of a single- or multi-layer, optionally sandwich-like, core material or a single- or multi-layer, optionally sandwich-like, core material structure; the core material can be, for example, wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material, and the core material structure can be, for example, a material structure comprising wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material.

[0070] On the underside 22 of the base body 20, a sliding surface 23 or a running surface, sometimes also referred to as a "base," for sliding on snow is arranged or formed, at least in sections, in particular completely. The underside 22 of the base body 20 is thus provided, at least in sections, in particular completely, with a sliding surface 23 or a running surface for sliding on snow. The sliding surface 23 or the running surface can be made, for example, of graphite, plastic, in particular a polyethylene-based plastic, or metal, or can comprise at least one of the materials mentioned. A structural body 30 is arranged on the upper side 21 of the base body 20. In the exemplary embodiment, the structural body 30 has a first spring region 31 having elastic-resilient properties, which is formed by a first curvature 32a (longitudinal curvature) extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20.The snow sliding device 10 thus has a configuration with a base body 20, on the upper side of which a separate structural body 30 is arranged, which is formed by or has a first spring region 31 having elastic-spring properties. The first spring region 31 is formed by the first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20. The configuration of the snow sliding device 10 thus provides that a structural body 30 is arranged on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, which has a first spring region 31 having elastic-spring properties and thus elastically resilient under appropriate loading or force application, which is formed by the first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20.

[0071] The structural body 30, ie in particular the first spring region 31, can also be referred to or considered as the first spring body due to its elastic-spring properties.

[0072] From Figs. 1 and 3, it is evident that the first curvature 32a can be a convex curvature; the structural body 30 therefore has, at least due to the first spring region 31 formed by the first curvature 32a, an outwardly curved surface, particularly with respect to the upper side 21 of the base body 20; the snow sliding device 10 is thus higher than conventional snow sliding devices, at least in terms of its maximum height.

[0073] The structural body 30 can basically be formed from the same material or the same material structure as the base body 20, i.e. in particular as the core or the core structure of the base body 20, and thus differ from the base body 20 in particular by its geometric configuration, i.e. in particular the first curvature 32a. Alternatively, the structural body 30 can be formed from a different material or a different material structure than the base body 20, i.e. in particular as the core or the core structure of the base body 20, and thus differ from the base body 20 not only by its geometric configuration, i.e. in particular by the first curvature 32a, but also by its "materiality".

[0074] The structural body 30, i.e., in particular, the first spring region 31, is expediently formed from an elastically resilient material or from an elastically resilient material structure, in particular a multi-layer elastically resilient material structure. Specifically, the structural body 30, i.e., in particular, the first spring region 31, can be formed, for example, from wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material; a design comprising a single- or multi-layer material structure comprising wood, plastic, metal, or a composite material, such as a fiber composite material, is also conceivable.

[0075] The first curvature 32a forming the first spring region 31 is characterized in particular by a radius R extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20, which radius R is not present in the base body 20, so that the structural body 30, as the figures show, fundamentally differs from the base body 20 in particular by the radius R. The radius R of the first curvature 32a can, for example, be in a range between 1750 mm and 1950 mm, in particular in a range between 1800 mm and 1900 mm. In configurations of the snow gliding device 10 for women, the radius R can be in a range between 1825 mm and 1875 mm, in particular approximately 1855 mm, and in configurations of the snow gliding device 10 for men, the radius R can be in a range between 1875 mm and 1915 mm, in particular approximately 1895 mm.

[0076] The figures show that the structural body 30 can, in principle, be designed, for example, in a web-like or web-shaped manner. Specifically, the figures show that the structural body 30 can be formed by a single- or multi-layer board or a corresponding single- or multi-layer plate having a corresponding first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20 and thus a corresponding first spring region 31. The structural body 30 can thus be formed by a board or a corresponding plate that is at least partially, in particular predominantly, possibly completely, designed with a curvature or curvature and thus has a curved or bent board-like or board-shaped geometry or a curved or bent plate-like or plate-shaped geometry.

[0077] Also conceivable are embodiments of the structural body 30 with a plurality of corresponding boards or plates, e.g., arranged side by side, behind, and / or one above the other. The structural body 30 can therefore also have a plurality of corresponding boards or plates arranged side by side, behind, and / or one above the other, possibly stacked, in order to specifically influence its structural properties, i.e., in particular, its elastic-spring properties and its rigidity.

[0078] By providing the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, the structural properties, i.e. in particular the elastic-spring properties and the rigidity, and thus also the driving properties or driving behavior of the snow sliding device 10 can be significantly influenced, for example by imparting to the snow sliding device 10 a certain elasticity, in particular in the direction of a normal to the upper side 21 of the base body 20, and rigidity, in particular in the direction of the longitudinal and / or transverse axis of the base body 20. The elasticity and rigidity that can be realized or is realized by means of the structural body 30 results in various advantages for both inexperienced and experienced users. As can be seen from Fig. 1, which shows a perspective view of a base body 20 of a snow sliding device 10.13, 14, their structural properties are not only characterized by at least one structural body 30 arranged on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 (this is not shown in Figs. 13, 14 to simplify the illustration, although it is present), which has a first spring region 31 formed by at least one first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20 and having elastically springy properties, but also by the fact that the base body 20 has a first spring region 31 formed by at least one first curvature 32a extending in the transverse direction of the base body.

[0079] 20 extending second curvature 27a and having elastic-spring properties. The base body 20 therefore has a spring region 27 (second spring region) formed by at least one curvature (second curvature 27a) and having elastic-spring properties, wherein the at least one second curvature 27a of the second spring region 27, in contrast to the at least one first curvature 32a of the first spring region 31, does not extend in the longitudinal extent or longitudinal direction of the base body 20, but in the transverse extent or transverse direction of the base body 20. The extension directions of the at least one first curvature 32a of the structural body 30 and the at least one second curvature 27a of the base body 20 are therefore orthogonal to one another, which results in special structural properties, ie in particular elastic-spring properties, of the snow sliding device as a whole.

[0080] The resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10 thus arise from the combination of the geometric and structural properties of the base body 20 and the structural body 30 arranged on its upper side 21. The configuration of the snow sliding device 10 with the structural body 30 arranged on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 thus opens up significantly improved driving characteristics compared to conventionally configured snow sliding devices with regard to the achievable structural properties - which, as mentioned, include in particular a special elasticity and rigidity and thus also special bending or torsional properties in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction of the base body 20 - and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow sliding device 10.The improved handling characteristics of the snow-gliding device 10 can, in turn, have a positive effect on the execution of certain maneuvers. Specifically, the increased elastic-spring properties can improve takeoffs and landings, for example. The snow-gliding device 10 can thus, for example, exhibit more "pop" and / or "flex" than conventional snow-gliding devices. In any case, the "pop" and / or "flex" of the snow-gliding device 10, especially for snowboards, can be adjusted by the surface on the upper side.

[0081] 21 of the base body 20. In addition to the combination of the respective structural properties of the base body 20 and the structural body 30, aspects such as the specific dimensions of the structural body 30, in particular relative to the dimensions of the base body 20, the shape of the structural body 30, the orientation and / or position of the structural body 30 relative to the base body 20, as well as the number, dimensions and arrangement of the support surfaces 33a, 33b of the structural body 30 on the base body 20, are also of particular importance for the resulting structural properties and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow sliding device 10.Thus, the described configuration of the snow sliding device 10 also makes it possible to specifically influence the resulting structural properties and the resulting driving characteristics of the snow sliding device 10 not only through the respective structural properties, but also through other aspects, such as in particular those mentioned above.

[0082] As will be apparent from the following and from the figure, when used as intended, a user typically does not stand on the base body 20, but rather on the structural body 30. The configuration of the snow sliding device 10 thus also enables a user to stand at a higher level compared to conventional configurations, which can also have a positive effect on the driving characteristics.

[0083] In specific embodiments, the interaction of the base body 20 and the structural body 30 arranged or fastened on its upper side 21 can achieve the effect that the snow sliding device 10 can have a special torsional or twisting behavior; the special torsional or twisting behavior of the snow sliding device 10 can enable twisting of up to 45° in or around the longitudinal axis of the base body 20. The structural body 30 can act as an additional lever, which, particularly with regard to the execution of certain driving maneuvers, such as cornering, jibs, jumps, grinds, etc., not only leads to or supports improved driving characteristics, but also enables the compensation of any driving errors, which can lead to falls being avoided or at least reduced. This can result, for example, from the fact that the described configuration of the snow sliding device 10 enables, for example,by "levering back" to its original position to compensate for tilting during driving. Since, as mentioned, a user typically stands not on the base body 20, but rather elevated on the structural body 30, cornering is also facilitated or supported, so that cornering or corresponding turns can be initiated with reduced effort. The configuration of the snow gliding device 10 can thus include a type of "power steering," which makes it easier for inexperienced users to learn and enhances their driving experience.

[0084] The structural body 30, in particular the first spring region 31, has, due to its geometry, elastic-resilient recovery properties with respect to forces directed or acting on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, in particular weight forces. The elastic-resilient recovery properties result in particular from the first curvature 32a. The first spring region 31 therefore acts like a leaf spring or imparts the properties of a leaf spring to the structural body 30. The elastic-resilient recovery properties of the structural body 30, i.e. in particular of the first spring region 31, can therefore be adjusted not only by the elastic-resilient properties of the material forming the structural body 30 or the material structure forming the structural body 30, but also in particular by the specific geometric configuration, i.e. in particular the radius R, of the first curvature 32a.

[0085] In an analogous manner, the second spring region 27 has elastic-resilient recovery properties with respect to forces directed or acting on the upper side of the base body 20, in particular weight forces. The elastic-resilient recovery properties typically result from the at least one second curvature. The second spring region 27 can therefore act like a leaf spring or impart the properties of a leaf spring to the base body 20. The elastic-resilient recovery properties of the second spring region 27 can therefore be adjusted not only by the elastic-resilient properties of the material forming the base body 20 or the material structure forming the base body 20, but in particular also by the specific geometric configuration, i.e. in particular the radius, of the at least one second curvature 27a.

[0086] From the figure, it is further evident that between the upper side 21 of the base body 20 and the structural body 30, in particular the first spring region 31 formed by the first curvature 32a, a free space FR is formed which is curved in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20, in particular arch-like or arch-shaped when viewed in the longitudinal direction, and possibly dome-like or dome-shaped when viewed three-dimensionally. The dimensions of the free space FR, ie in particular the maximum distance of the free space FR from the upper side 21 of the base body 20 or the maximum height h defined by the dimensions of the first curvature 32a m ax of the free space FR, can have an influence on the driving characteristics of the snow sliding device 10, as they can, for example, affect the damping properties or the damping behavior of the structural body 30.

[0087] Specifically, the free space FR can, for example, have a maximum distance or a maximum height relative to the upper side 21 of the base body 20 of 10 cm, in particular of 9 cm, further in particular of 8 cm, further in particular of 7 cm, further in particular of 6 cm, further in particular of 5 cm, further in particular of 4 cm, further in particular of 3 cm, further in particular of 2 cm, further in particular of 1 cm. As will be apparent below, the maximum distance or the maximum height h max of the free space FR, in particular under corresponding load, for example by deliberately changing the arrangement of one or more front first fastening points 37a or areas relative to one or more rear first fastening points 37b or areas of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20. This can optionally also be supported by a floating fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the base body 20, as explained in more detail below.

[0088] The dimensions of the structural body 30 or the first spring region 31 in the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device 10, and thus its longitudinal extent, are typically selected with regard to the dimensions of the base body 20 in the longitudinal direction and thus its longitudinal extent. The dimensions of the structural body 30 or the first spring region 31 in the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device 10, and thus its longitudinal extent, are typically smaller than the dimensions of the base body 20 in the longitudinal direction and thus its longitudinal extent; the structural body 30 or the first spring region 31 is thus typically shorter than the base body 20, particularly with respect to the respective maximum longitudinal extent.

[0089] From Figs. 1-5, it is evident that the structural body 30 can, for example, have a maximum length dimension that corresponds to at least 50% of the maximum length dimension of the base body 20. The selection of the maximum length dimension of the structural body 30 and / or the degree of coverage of the base body 20 by the structural body 30 also provides a measure for specifically influencing the resulting structural properties of the snow-gliding device 10. Of course, the maximum length dimension of the structural body 30 can vary depending on the specific design of the snow-gliding device; for designs of the snow-gliding device 10 as a ski, the length dimension of the structural body 30 should be at least 15 cm, e.g., to enable the proper attachment of a ski binding.

[0090] With regard to the arrangement of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, the structural body 30 can, in principle, be arranged in any region of the upper side 21 of the base body 20. The choice of the location of the arrangement of a structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, in particular combined with a specific length dimension of the structural body 30, also provides a measure for specifically influencing the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0091] 1-5 show that the base body 20 can have, in the longitudinal direction, a first base body section 24 having a first free end, a second base body section 25 having a second free end, and a third base body section 26 arranged between the first and second base body sections 24, 25. The third base body section 26 can, for example, occupy at least 50% of the maximum length dimension of the base body 20. In the exemplary embodiments, the structural body 30 is arranged, for example, within or above the third base body section 26 and covers it at least in sections, in particular predominantly, and optionally completely.

[0092] The same applies to the width or transverse extent of the structural body 30 or of the first spring region 31 in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device 10, i.e. in a direction of the snow sliding device 10 extending transversely to the longitudinal direction of the snow sliding device 10. Therefore, the dimensions of the structural body 30 or of the first spring region 31 in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent are typically selected with regard to the dimensions of the base body 20 in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent. The dimensions of the structural body 30 or of the first spring region 31 in the width or transverse direction of the snow sliding device 10 are typically smaller than the dimensions of the base body 20 in the width or transverse direction and thus its width or transverse extent; the structural body 30 orThe first spring region 31 is thus typically narrower than the base body 20, particularly with respect to the respective maximum width or transverse extent.

[0093] As indicated, the structural body 30 can have a geometry defined by at least one length dimension and at least one width or transverse dimension. The width or transverse dimension of the structural body 30 can be constant along its length or, as shown by way of example in the figures, can be variable, ie, can decrease and / or increase.

[0094] The figure also shows that the structural body 30 can fundamentally have at least one first region 34, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20, and at least one second region 36, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20 and different from the first width dimension. The structural body 30 can therefore have different widths or transverse dimensions; the shaping in the width or transverse direction, i.e. in particular the realization of regions of different widths or narrows, also represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0095] Specifically, the figures show that the structural body 30 can have a first region 34, which has a first width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20, at least one second region 36, which can optionally also be referred to as a connecting or intermediate web, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20 and is smaller than the first width or transverse dimension, and a third region 35, which has a second width or transverse dimension extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20 and is larger than the second width dimension. The width or transverse dimensions of the first and third regions 34, 35 are (essentially) the same in the exemplary embodiment, but could in principle also be different.The at least one second region 36 is arranged or formed between the first and third regions 34, 35 in the direction of the longitudinal axis A1 of the base body 20. The structural body 30 can thus have a waist due to three separate, possibly different, width or transverse dimensions; the realization of a corresponding waist, as well as its specific dimensions or shape, also represents a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0096] As can be seen, in corresponding embodiments of the structural body 30 with three regions 34-36, the first spring region 31 can be formed by or encompass the at least one second region 36. Consequently, the at least one second region 36 can be convexly curved. The first curvature 32a can thus be formed by the at least one second region 36. The first and third regions 34, 35, on the other hand, can be flat and form first and second support or force introduction regions or corresponding support surfaces 33a, 33b, with which the structural body 30 rests on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 and via which forces acting on the structural body 30 can be introduced into the base body 20 when the snow sliding device 10 is in use.

[0097] At this point, it should be noted in general that the structural body 30 in the embodiment according to Figs. 1 - 5 can rest directly on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 via corresponding support or force introduction areas or corresponding support surfaces 33a, 33b; however, as the embodiment according to Fig. 9 shows, this is not absolutely necessary, because between the structural body 30 and the upper side 21 of the base body 20, one or more, e.g., strip-like or -shaped, spacer elements 40 can be arranged or formed, so that the structural body 30 does not rest directly on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, but on one or more corresponding spacer elements 40, which are directly on the upper side 21 of the base body

[0098] 20. The resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10 can also be specifically influenced by the number, dimensions, arrangement and structural properties of the spacer elements 40. The dimensions of one or more spacer elements 40 in the vertical direction, ie in a direction normal to the upper side

[0099] 21 of the base body 20, the height and / or angular position of a user relative to the upper side 21 of the base body 20 can also be influenced. Corresponding spacer elements 40 can therefore, for example, have a height of 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, 16 mm, 17 mm, 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm or more. Corresponding spacer elements 40 can, for example, be formed from an elastic-spring material or an elastic-spring material structure, which also influences the elastic-spring properties of the snow sliding device 10. Corresponding spacer elements 40 can, for example, be formed from an elastomer material or comprise such a material; In this way, damping properties can also be created or influenced, for example to improve landing behavior after a jump.

[0100] As mentioned above, the structural body 30 is fastened to the base body 20, i.e. in particular to the upper side 21 of the base body 20. The structural body 30 can therefore have at least one first fastening interface 37a, 37b for fastening the structural body 30 to the base body 20. A corresponding first fastening interface 37a, 37b can, for example, be a positive and / or non-positive and / or material-locking fastening interface, so that the structural body 30 can be fastened to the base body 20 via a positive and / or non-positive and / or material-locking fastening type. Positive and / or non-positive fastening types can, in particular, be a clamping, screwing, tensioning, or locking fastening; corresponding first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b can therefore, for example, be clamping, screwing, tensioning, or locking interfaces, so that, for example, at least sectionallyOpenings through which a screw bolt can pass can be considered. Material-to-material fastening methods can, in particular, be adhesive or welded fastening; corresponding first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b can thus be adhesive or welded interfaces, so that, for example, adhesive or welded surfaces can be considered.

[0101] In particular, for form-fitting and / or force-fitting fastening types, it is true that these can enable a fastening of the structural body 30 to the base body 20, which can be detachably fastened if necessary (without causing damage or destruction). Thus, it may be possible to fasten the structural body 30, or at least one structural body 30, interchangeably to the base body 20, which in turn opens up the possibility of providing the snow sliding device 10 with different structural properties by replacing a first structural body 30 with a second structural body 30 that has a different geometric or structural configuration, for example. In this way, it is possible, for example, to configure one and the same base body 20 for users with different driving abilities and / or for different driving situations. For example, for driving situations in which many jumps have to be completed, such asIn a halfpipe, a structural body 30 may be advantageous, which supports takeoffs and landings due to its structural properties and attachment to the top side 21 of the base body 20, whereas in riding situations in which many turns have to be made, such as in a snowboard cross, a structural body 30 may be advantageous, which supports turns due to its structural properties and attachment to the top side 21 of the base body 20. The figure shows that the structural body 30 may have one or more front first attachment interfaces 37a for attaching the structural body 30 to the base body 20, which are arranged or formed in the region of a first or front structural body section facing a first or front free end of the base body 20 (cf. Fig.4), and one or more rear first fastening interfaces 37b for fastening the structural body 30 to the base body 20, which are arranged or formed in the region of a second or rear structural body section facing a second or rear free end of the base body 20 (cf. Fig. 5).

[0102] From Fig. 5 it can be seen that at least one front first fastening interface 37a, namely the fastening interface 37a shown as elongated, can enable the structural body 30 to be fastened so that it can move in at least one degree of freedom in a plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side of the base body 20. Via this front first fastening interface 37a, a so-called floating fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 can be realized, which in turn represents a measure for specifically influencing the driving characteristics of the snow gliding device 10. Specifically, cornering, for example, can be influenced in this way, as a user has additional degrees of freedom at his or her disposal in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when executing turns. Alternatively or additionally, the spring orThe recovery properties of the structural body 30 and thus, for example, the take-off or landing behavior can be improved in order to introduce and / or absorb forces when performing jumps.

[0103] In the exemplary embodiment, an exemplary combination of two differently configured front fastening interfaces 37a is shown, wherein the fastening interfaces 37a arranged directly in the region of the front free end of the structural body 30 can each basically realize a floating fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20, whereas the other two fastening interfaces 37a shown in a circle each realize a fixed fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20.

[0104] From Fig. 5 it can be seen that the rear first fastening interfaces 37b can also enable a movable fastening of the structural body 30 in at least one degree of freedom of movement in the plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side 21 of the base body 20. A so-called floating fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20 can therefore also be realized via the rear first fastening interfaces 37b, which also represents a measure for specifically influencing the driving characteristics of the snow gliding device 10. For example, cornering can also be influenced in such a way that a user has additional degrees of freedom at his or her disposal in order to introduce and / or absorb forces, for example when executing turns. Alternatively or additionally, the spring or restoring properties of the structural body 30 and thus, for example, the take-off orLanding behavior can be improved in order to introduce and / or absorb forces when performing jumps, for example.

[0105] In the exemplary embodiment, an exemplary combination of two identically configured rear fastening interfaces 37b is shown, each of which can realize a floating fastening or mounting of the structural body 30 on the upper side 21 of the base body 20.

[0106] In principle, and thus independently of the exemplary embodiments shown in the figures, only at least one front or rear first fastening interface 37a, 37b, and optionally all front or rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b, can enable the structural body 30 to be fastened in a movable manner in at least one degree of freedom of movement in the plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side 21 of the base body 20, whereas the remaining front or rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b are fixed in position and thus not fastened to the base body 20 in a movable manner in at least one degree of freedom of movement in the plane of movement arranged parallel to the upper side 21 of the base body 20.

[0107] Returning to the exemplary embodiment shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the front and rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b, which implement a floating fastening or mounting, specifically enable the structural body 30 to be fastened to or on the base body 20 in a translational degree of freedom in a translation axis aligned in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20. The corresponding front and rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b, and in any case the rear first fastening interfaces 37b, can thus be displaced relative to the base body 20 along a translation axis aligned in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20. This can be achieved, for example, via guide devices arranged or formed on or in the base body 20 and / or the structural body 30, which, as shown by way of example in the figures, can be, for example,be designed as guide slots 38a, 38b, within which, for example, guide bolts serving as fastening elements 39a, 39b are mounted so as to engage therein. Corresponding guide slots 38a, 38b can be arranged or formed, for example, in a straight line or, although not shown, curved, in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the base body 20 or, although not shown, at an angle thereto, i.e. in particular oblique, on or in the base body 20 or the structural body 30. Although not shown, the front and rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b, which implement a floating fastening or mounting, can enable the structural body 30 to be fastened to or on the base body 20 in at least one rotational degree of freedom in a rotation axis oriented at right angles to the plane of movement.At least one front and / or rear first fastening interface 37a, 37b can thus be pivoted relative to the base body 20 about a rotation axis oriented at right angles to the plane of movement. This can also be realized, for example, via guide devices arranged or formed on or in the base body 20 and / or the structural body 30; corresponding guide devices can in turn be, for example, guide slots, within which, for example, guide bolts serving as fastening elements are mounted so as to engage therein. Corresponding guide slots can be arranged or formed, for example, straight or curved, in a direction parallel to the transverse axis of the base body 20 or at an angle thereto, i.e. in particular oblique, on or in the base body 20 or the structural body 30.

[0108] From Figs. 4 and 5, it is further apparent that the front and rear first fastening interfaces 37a, 37b can be arranged or formed, for example, in the support surfaces 33a, 33b forming a flat support on the upper side 21 of the base body 20. In this way, a stable fastening of the structural body 30 to the base body 20 can be realized despite the at least one translational and / or rotational degree of freedom of movement of the structural body 30 relative to the base body 20.

[0109] Finally, Figs. 4 and 5 show that the snow gliding device 10 can have bore-like or -shaped, unspecified second fastening interfaces for one or more snowboard bindings, via which a snowboard boot can be attached to the snow gliding device 10. In the exemplary embodiment, the second fastening interfaces are arranged or formed on or in the structural body 30. Thus, in all embodiments, the structural body 30 can have one or more second fastening interfaces for attaching a binding for a user.In particular, the structural body 30 can have a plurality of second fastening interfaces for fastening a first binding, which are arranged or formed in the region of a structural body section facing a first free end (front free end) of the base body 20, and one or more second fastening interfaces for fastening a second binding, which are arranged or formed in the region of a structural body section facing a second free end (rear free end) of the base body 20.

[0110] Corresponding second fastening interfaces can, for example, be positive and / or non-positive fastening interfaces, so that a binding can be fastened to the structural body 30 via a positive and / or non-positive fastening type. In particular, positive and / or non-positive fastening types can enable a fastening of the binding to the structural body 30 that can be detachably fastened, if necessary (without causing damage or destruction). Positive and / or non-positive fastening types can, in particular, be a clamping, screwing, tensioning, or locking fastening; corresponding fastening interfaces can thus, for example, be clamping, screwing, tensioning, or locking interfaces, so that, for example, openings that can be penetrated at least in sections by a screw or bolt come into consideration.

[0111] Based on the embodiment according to Fig. 6, which shows a cross-section through a corresponding snow sliding device 10 approximately in the middle region, it can be seen that the first spring region 31, in addition to the at least one first curvature 32a, which, as mentioned, extends in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20, can also have at least one second curvature 32b (transverse curvature) extending in the width or transverse direction of the base body 20. The structural body 30 can therefore be a dome-like or dome-shaped component, at least as far as the second region 36 is concerned; thus, at least the first spring region 31 can be dome-like or dome-shaped due to the curvatures in the longitudinal and transverse directions. By forming the first spring region 31 with at least one first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body and at least one second curvature 32b extending in the width or transverse directionThe second curvature 32b extending in the transverse direction of the base body 20 and the resulting three-dimensional shape of the structural body 30 provide a further measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0112] The respective first and second curvatures 32a, 32b of the first spring region 31 can be identical or different in their geometric parameters, i.e., in particular, their respective radii R; the specific geometric parameters of the respective first and second curvatures 32a, 32b also provide a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0113] 7 and 8 show that a configuration of at least one structural body 30 with a plurality of second regions 36, each spaced apart from one another by at least one gap, is also conceivable. One, a plurality of, or all of the second regions 36 can be arranged aligned parallel to the longitudinal axis A1 of the base body 20 (cf. Fig. 7). Alternatively or additionally, one, a plurality of, or all of the second regions 36 can be arranged aligned obliquely to the longitudinal axis A1 of the base body 20 (cf. Fig. 8). In the two exemplary embodiments, it is also shown that at least two of the plurality of second regions 36 can be arranged aligned parallel to one another. At least two of the plurality of second regions 36 have the same dimensions in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction or, although not shown, differ.Regardless of their orientation and / or position or their dimensions, the spring region 31 can be formed by or encompass the plurality of second regions 36 spaced apart from one another by the at least one gap. Thus, the number, orientation, and / or position, in particular relative to the longitudinal axis of the base body 20 and / or relative to one another, as well as the dimensions of the respective second regions 36, also provide a measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10.

[0114] Based on the cross-sectional views according to Figs. 10 and 11, which are taken approximately in the center of the base body 20, it is evident that, in addition to the structural body 30, the base body 20 can also be configured in a special way to improve the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10 and, associated with it, its driving characteristics. As mentioned, the base body 20 can have, in the longitudinal direction, a first base body section 24 having a first free end, a second base body section 25 having a second free end, and a third base body section 26, shown in the figures, arranged between the first and second base body sections 24, 25. The third base body section 26 has at least one second spring region 27 formed by at least one concave curvature extending in the longitudinal and / or transverse extent of the base body and having elastically resilient properties.In the exemplary embodiment, the second spring region 27 of the base body 20 is formed by a comparatively smaller wall thickness of the base body 20. Specifically, the second spring region 27 of the base body 20 can thus be formed, for example, by a depression extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20, in particular a trough-like or trough-shaped depression, and / or, although not shown, by an elevation extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20. The cross-sectional views clearly show that the depression, in particular a trough-like or trough-shaped depression, is oriented in the transverse direction of the base body 20.

[0115] The length dimension of the recess and / or the elevation corresponds, for example, to at least 50% of the maximum length dimension of the base body 20.

[0116] The width or transverse dimension of the depression and / or elevation can be constant or variable along its longitudinal extent, i.e., decrease and / or increase. The depth of the depression and / or the height of the elevation can also be constant or variable along its longitudinal extent, i.e., decrease and / or increase. In general, a corresponding depression and / or elevation can therefore have a cross-sectional geometry that is constant or variable in the longitudinal direction.

[0117] As shown in Fig. 11, a corresponding recess or elevation in the base body 20 can be formed (also) in the upper side 21 of the base body 20. This can be expedient because the underside 22 of the base body 20, provided with the sliding surface 23 or the running surface, can thus be easily machined, for example, for service and / or repair purposes, as with conventional snow sliding devices.

[0118] Fig. 12 shows a side view, purely schematically, of an embodiment of a snow gliding device 10 with multiple structural bodies 30, each structural body 30 having a corresponding first spring region 31. Each structural body 30 can be separately attached to the base body 20. Each structural body 30 can also have one or more second attachment interfaces for a binding.

[0119] For all exemplary embodiments, a further measure for specifically influencing the structural properties of the structural body 30 and thus the resulting structural properties of the snow sliding device 10 can be implemented in that the structural body 30 has one or more influencing structures (not shown) that locally influence the elastic-spring properties in at least one direction, in particular in the longitudinal direction and / or in the transverse direction of the base body 20, in particular in the form of local stiffeners and / or weakeners. Corresponding local stiffeners can be realized, for example, by geometric-structural parameters, such as (in comparison) greater wall thicknesses, material accumulations, stiffening geometries, such as rib geometries, etc. Analogously, corresponding local weakenings can be realized, for example, by geometric-structural parameters, such as(in comparison) smaller wall thicknesses, material reductions, weakening geometries, such as openings, etc. can be realized.

[0120] Finally, it can be seen from Fig. 13, 14 that the second spring region 27 or the at least one second curvature 27a forming it can be integrated at least partially, optionally completely, into the base body 20. In particular, the second spring region 27 or the at least one second curvature 27a forming it can be formed by a core structure 28 of the base body 20, which has at least the at least one second curvature 27a extending in the transverse extent of the base body 20. The second spring region 27 can thus be formed by a core structure 28 of the base body 20, which is arranged within the base body 20 between the top and bottom sides 21, 22 of the base body 20 and has at least one second curvature 27a extending in the transverse extent of the base body 20.

[0121] With regard to the nature of the at least one first curvature 32a and the at least one second curvature 27a, these can be designed to be oppositely identical. Thus, for example, the first spring region 32a can have at least one convex curvature extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20, and the second spring region 27 can have at least one concave curvature extending in the transverse direction of the base body 20. A configuration in which the curvatures 32a and 27a are designed to be identical in nature is also conceivable in principle; Both configurations are shown by way of example in Figs. 13, 14. Specifically, the first spring region 31 can have at least one convex curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal direction of the base body 20 and the second spring region 27 can be formed by a core structure 28 of the base body 20, which has at least one concave curvature extending in the transverse direction of the base body 20.Such a configuration of the snow sliding device 10 was surprisingly distinguished in investigations by particularly useful properties with regard to driving characteristics and behavior.

[0122] A method for producing the snow sliding device 10 comprises in particular the following steps: providing a board-shaped base body 20 defining a longitudinal axis A1, having an upper side 21 and a lower side 22, wherein the base body 20 has on the lower side 22 a sliding surface 23 for sliding on snow and at least one second spring region 27 formed by at least one second curvature extending in the transverse extent of the base body 20 and having elastically resilient properties; and fastening at least one structural body 30 on the upper side of the base body 20, wherein the at least one structural body 30 has at least one spring region 31 formed by at least one first curvature 32a extending in the longitudinal extent of the base body 20 and having elastically resilient properties.

[0123] Individual, multiple or features of a first embodiment can be combined with individual, multiple or all features of at least one further embodiment.
