Patent attributes
The invention relates to a folding ski having an articulated connection. The technical problem is to configure a folding ski structure that will act as a classic ski, which means that the assembled structure of the folding ski will act as a uniform support. The folding ski of the invention comprises a ski front section, a ski rear section, an articulated connection that inseparably connects the ski front section with the rear section, a connecting plate intended to strengthen the articulated connection of the ski, the connecting plate comprising a front and rear base plate and a bridging plate, wherein a plurality of ribs and/or grooves in the shape of a circular arc are formed on the upper side of the front base plate and the rear base plate and a plurality of grooves and/or ribs are formed on the bottom side of the bridging plate so that each pair of a rib and a groove forms a positive lock connection that transfers longitudinal shear forces, and at least a part of the ribs is formed with at least one flap and the corresponding groove is formed with a notch which receives a flap so as to form a positive lock connection which also transfers vertical forces.
