A module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, having a frame on which the modules are placed, wherein the module has an upper part intended for riding and making a curved surface, and in the top view it has a quadrilateral-like shape with two sides in the shape of arches, a rear wall and a front wall, wherein the rear wall and the front wall form the base of the module, as well as the left face wall and the opposite right face wall, which are placed between the rear wall and the front wall, characterized in that in the side view, the rear wall (3) has the quadrilateral shape, the sides of which converge upwards at an acute angle, and in the side view the front wall (4) has the shape of an arch connecting the upper part (2) with the base of the module (1), wherein the left face wall (5) and the right face wall (6) form an acute angle in a top view, and when viewed from the left face wall (5) they form the curved surface making the upper part (2) of the module (1), which is concave towards the base formed by the rear wall (3) and the front wall (4).

2. The module according to claim 1 characterized in that in the view from the left face wall (5), the upper part (2) intended for riding, in direction from the front wall (4) towards the rear wall (3), makes a straight section (m) and then a concave arc to the base of the module (1) running to the rear wall (3).

3. The module according to claim 1 characterized in that the rear wall (3) of the module (1) consists of the upper rear wall (3a) and the bottom rear wall (3b).

4. The module according to claim 1 characterized in that the rear wall (3) is inclined at an acute angle with respect to the vertical direction.

5. The module according to claim 1 characterized in that the edge of the upper part (2) adjacent to the rear side wall 4 has a curvature 7 with a radius in the range from 50 mm to 100 mm.

6. The module according to claim 1 characterized in that the upper part (2) of the module (1), which is intended for riding, has a roughened surface.

Description

[0017] The utility model is presented in the attached drawing, in which FIG. 1 shows a module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, from the side of the riding surface, in a perspective view, FIG. 2 shows the module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, in a view from the left face wall, FIG. 3 shows the module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, from the front wall side, in a straight view, FIG. 4 shows the module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, in top view, FIG. 5 shows the module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, in a straight view from the rear wall side, FIG. 6 shows the location of the module for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, in the exemplary recreational track.

[0018] Module 1 is used to construct a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, which has the frame on which modules are placed.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the module 1 has an upper part 2 intended for riding, making a curved surface. In the top view, the module 1 has a quadrilateral-like shape with two sides in the shape of arc, as it is shown in FIG. 4. The module 1 has a rear wall 3 and a front wall 4, and a left face wall 5 and an opposite right face wall 6, which are placed between the rear wall 3 and the front wall 4. The rear wall 3 and the front wall 4 form the base of the module 1.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 5, in a side view, the rear wall 3 has a quadrilateral shape, the sides of which converge upwards at an acute angle. The rear wall 3 of the module 1 consists of an upper rear wall 3a and a bottom rear wall 3b.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 2, in the view from the left face wall 5, the curved surface making the upper part 2 of the module 1 is concave towards the base formed by the rear wall 3 and the front wall 4. The front wall 4 has the shape of the arc connecting the upper part 2 with the base of the module 1, and the rear wall 3 is inclined at an acute angle with respect to vertical direction. The upper part 2 intended for riding, in direction from the front wall 4 towards the rear wall 3, makes the m straight section and then a concave turn to the base of the module 1 extending to the rear wall 3. Inclination in the plane transversal to the rear wall 3 causes a type of “pulling” of a person riding on the track towards the centre of the axis of travel direction of the module 1. While riding very slowly, the person using the track moves along the flat section m of the module 1 from the front wall 4 side.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 4, the left face wall 5 and the right face wall 6 form an acute angle in the top view. The terms “right” and “left” have conventional meanings, as the module 1 is symmetrical with respect to its transverse axis.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 and FIG. 5, the edge of the top part 2 adjacent to the rear side wall 4 has a curvature 7 with a radius in the range from 50 mm to 100 mm.

[0024] The upper part 2 of the module 1, which is intended for riding, has a roughened surface, thus increasing the safety of riding.

[0025] Roughness is obtained by covering the module 1 with paint, applying a layer of quartz silica before the paint dries, removing excess silica after the paint dries and applying another layer of paint.

[0026] The module 1 for the construction of a recreational track, particularly a bicycle track, is made of plastic with fibreglass base.
