Manufacturing method for an ice skate blade

Abstract

The present invention relates to the manufacturing method of an ice skate blade. The blade originally shaped as cylinder is processed by a rolling machine and gradually being rolled into a blade with thinner upper portion and wider lower portion. A plurality of through holes with equi-distance in between are provided on the upper portion of the blade which is curved upward at both ends. Finally, a layer of light and rigid polymeric resin material is provided for covering the upper portion of the blade to complete the blade having upper and lower matching sections.

1 . An ice skate blade comprising: a blade holder and a blade, wherein said blade is manufactured by gradually process an originally cylinder shaped steel blade into a rolling machine with multi sectional process; upper portion of said blade is clipped and rolled into slightly thinner width at the first section and then clipped tighter and rolled into much thinner but suitable width in the following rolling sections to form a blade with wider lower portion and thinner upper portion; a plurality of through holes are provided on the upper portion of said blade with suitable spaced equi-distance in between and said blade is curved upward at both ends; and thinner upper portion of said blade with through holes thereon is covered with a layer of light and rigid polymeric resin material forming said blade having upper and lower sections. 
   
   
       2 . An ice skate blade according to  claim 1 , wherein said through holes on upper portion of said blade could also be replaced with a plurality of protrusions with suitably spaced equi-distance in between.
