  • Patent number: 7261791
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a board for gliding over snow comprises producing a decorative and protective exterior assembly with at least one additional piece. At least one opening is made in the exterior assembly. The additional piece or pieces are placed on an outer surface of the exterior assembly, each piece having at least one through-fixing zone, passing through the opening or openings. The through-fixing zone or zones penetrate an inner structure of the board and constitutes one or more securing means for the piece or pieces.

  • Patent number: 6755434
    Abstract: Board for gliding over snow (1) comprising a gliding sole plate (2) bordered by metal side edges (3), an upper protective and decorative layer (4), and a filler core (6), including, on at least one of its faces, the lower face and/or the upper face, at least one internal rigid reinforcement (5), wherein this internal rigid reinforcement has at least one laterally flush zone (9, 11) in the region of the heel of the board for gliding over snow so as to allow the centering of the median longitudinal axis of said reinforcement relative to the median longitudinal axis of the board for gliding over snow.

  • Patent number: 5813091
    Abstract: A safety device for automatically preventing a door accidentally closing completely. The door comprises at least one panel (2) provided with an actuator member (3) and hinged in a doorframe (4, 5, 6). The safety device comprises a moving member (10) displaceable between a safety position in which it prevents the door closing completely and a closure position in which the door can be closed, the moving member being connected (20) to the actuator member such that actuating the actuator member displaces the moving member towards its closure position.

  • Patent number: 4296791
    Abstract: The invention concerns a folding door of the kind having a primary panel pivoted about one axis on a frame, and a secondary panel articulated with respect to the primary panel and engaging a slide guide which is perpendicular to the pivotal axis of the primary panel.According to the invention, the two panels are articulated by links pivotally connected to each of the primary and secondary panels at second and third axes respectively, and the secondary panel engages the slide guide at a fourth axis located at an intermediate point along the panel, all the four axes being disposed centrally of the thickness of the panels; furthermore, the distance between the second and third axes is equal to the thickness of the panels, and the distance between the third and fourth axes is the same as between the first and second axes.With this construction, the door will open in a substantially smaller space than a conventional door and in addition it can be opened by a simple pushing action.
