CA 2367512

A lateral toe pick (30) for an ice skate blade (14) is provided for enhancing the ice-gripping ability of the forward toe end (18) of a skate blade (14) and reducing slippage at the blade-to-ice interface in the interest of generating more lift and acceleration for the skater. The toe pick (30) extends laterally from the skate blade (14) and forwardly toward a first fore end (18) of the skate blade (14) to define another second point of engagement between the skate blade (14) and the ice surface during certain skating maneuvers. In a preferred embodiment, the invention includes a second toe pick (30') extending laterally from the skate blade (14) on the opposite side of the skate blade (14) than the first pick (30) and disposed in a similar arrangement relative the first fore end (18) of the skate blade (14) as the opposing first pick (30). Such second pick (30') defines a third point of engagement between the skate blade (14) and the ice surface, thereby simply further enhancing the ice-gripping capability of the first fore end (18) of the skate blade (14).

L'invention concerne un ensemble dents latérales (30), destiné à une lame (14) de patin à glace, aux fins d'accroissement de la capacité de prise sur la glace de l'extrémité avant (18) de la lame (14) et de réduction du glissement au niveau de l'interface lame/glace, de manière à apporter au patineur une levée et une accélération plus grandes. Cette série de dents (30) s'étend latéralement à partir de la lame (14) et vers l'avant en direction d'une première extrémité avant(18)de la lame (14), afin de déterminer un second point de prise entre la lame (14) et la surface de la glace, pendant certaines figures de patinage. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, l'invention concerne un second ensemble dents (30') s'étendant latéralement à partir de la lame (14), du côté opposé de la lame (14) où se situe le premier ensemble (30), ce second ensemble étant disposé, par rapport à la première extrémité avant (18) de la lame (14), selon un agencement similaire à celui du premier ensemble dents (30). Ce second ensemble dents (30') définit un troisième point de prise entre la lame (14) et la surface de la glace, accroissant encore ultérieurement la capacité de prise sur la glace de la première extrémité avant (18) de la lame (14).
