Abstract

A skating track, in particular of the skateboard ramp type, includes: a self-supporting carrier structure of rigid foam, able to rest on the ground; and a skating surface attached to the carrier structure. The carrier structure has mortises and tenons embedded in the mortises. The skating surface is fixed to the tenons, the tenons and the mortises coupling the skating surface on the carrier structure and holding it in position.

Claims (16)

1. A skating track of the skateboard ramp type comprising:

a self-supporting carrier structure comprising rigid foam, which is able to rest on the ground, and mortises;

at least one running sheet having a skating surface; and

a plurality of tenons, each tenon coupled to the at least one running sheet through one of a demountable connection and a permanent surface-to-surface connection;

wherein the tenons are embedded in the mortises to couple the at least one running sheet to the carrier structure and hold the at least one running sheet in position relative to the carrier structure.

2. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the tenons and the mortises form a mechanical connection of a dovetail type.

3. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one running sheet is coupled to the tenons by demountable surface-to-surface connections.

4. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one running sheet is coupled to the tenons by the permanent surface-to-surface connections.

5. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one running sheet consists of a single running sheet.

6. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one running sheet comprises an assembly of running sheets.

7. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the self-supporting carrier structure consists of a single block of rigid foam.

8. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the self-supporting carrier structure comprises an assembly of self-supporting blocks of rigid foam.

9. The skating track according to claim 8 , wherein the self-supporting blocks comprise mechanical connections between blocks of the tenon/mortise type in a dovetail.

10. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein each mortise emerges on at least one face of a block by an opening, the mortise being able to receive a tenon by through this opening.

11. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein the self-supporting carrier structure consists of rigid foam.

12. The skating track according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of tenons extends from the at least one running sheet in a direction that is perpendicular to the skating surface.
