Description

DISPOSITIF AMOVIBLE POUR ÉLIMINER LA BOUCLE DES LACETS ET  REMOVABLE DEVICE FOR REMOVING THE LOOP FROM THE LACES AND
POUR BLOQUER LES LACETS  TO BLOCK THE LACES
Domaine technique Technical area
[0001 ] L'invention concerne un dispositif amovible pour éliminer la boucle des lacets de chaussures et pour bloquer lesdits lacets. The invention relates to a removable device for removing the buckle shoe laces and for locking said laces.
Etat de la technique State of the art
[0002] La mode vestimentaire actuelle des jeunes, des adolescents principalement et de certains adultes, est de porter des chaussures à lacets sans effectuer de boucle de maintien à leurs chaussures. La boucle est ainsi éliminée car non esthétique et les lacets non noués sont placés à l'intérieur des deux côtés de la chaussure pour éviter qu'ils ne traînent. [0002] The current fashion of young people, mainly teenagers and some adults, is to wear lace-up shoes without performing a buckle of support to their shoes. The loop is eliminated because not aesthetic and nonwoven laces are placed inside the two sides of the shoe to prevent them from lying around.
[0003] Des inconvénients liés à cette nouvelle mode existent cependant et sont les suivants : Disadvantages related to this new fashion however exist and are as follows:
[0004] - l'inconfort produit par les lacets rentrés dans les chaussures et les douleurs aux pieds que cela peut engendrer, [0004] the discomfort produced by the laces in the shoes and the foot pain that this may cause,
[0005] - la chaussure est trop lâche car non attachée et le pied n'est pas maintenu correctement, ce qui peut provoquer des torsions de la cheville notamment, - The shoe is too loose because not attached and the foot is not maintained properly, which can cause twisting of the ankle including,
[0006] - le désagrément des lacets pouvant ressortir des chaussures, désagrément pouvant de plus provoquer également une chute de la personne marchant sur son lacet qui traîne. The inconvenience of the laces can come out of the shoes, inconvenience can also cause a fall of the person walking on her shoelace lace.
[0007] Au vu des inconvénients engendrés par cette nouvelle mode vestimentaire, il apparaissait donc important de pouvoir répondre à ce problème des lacets non noués. In view of the disadvantages caused by this new fashion dress, it seemed important to be able to address the problem of not tied laces.
[0008] On connaît dans l'art antérieur de nombreux documents dont certains ont comme objectif de maintenir fermement la boucle déjà formée par les lacets. Ces documents sont notamment : Many documents are known in the prior art, some of which have the objective of firmly holding the loop already formed by the laces. These documents include:
[0009] - La demande de brevet WO2012162737 qui divulgue un dispositif amovible de maintien des lacets de chaussure composé d'une partie pliable permettant d'insérer les deux lacets et maintenir la boucle à l'intérieur et d'une partie décorative maintenue dessus. - The patent application WO2012162737 which discloses a removable device for maintaining shoe laces composed of a foldable part to insert the two laces and keep the loop inside and a decorative part held on it.
[0010] - La demande de brevet US5649342 qui divulgue un dispositif pour maintenir la boucle des lacets d'une chaussure comprenant une partie basse et un couvercle avec un mécanisme pour connecter les deux parties et maintenir ainsi la boucle des lacets. - The patent application US5649342 which discloses a device for holding the loop of the laces of a shoe comprising a lower part and a cover with a mechanism for connecting the two parts and thus maintain the loop laces.
[001 1 ] Un autre document concerne un dispositif complexe permettant d'attacher les lacets. Il s'agit de la demande de brevet W0200812048 qui divulgue un dispositif amovible constitué de trois parties permettant d'éviter que les lacets de chaussure se défassent et gênent. Les lacets sont insérés par deux trous dans une partie de base et les lacets sont attachés dans un espace par la partie intermédiaire laquelle est recouverte par une partie décorative. Ce dispositif, en plus de sa complexité, ne permet pas de faire varier le relâchement des lacets de manière simple. [001 1] Another document relates to a complex device for attaching the laces. This is the patent application WO200812048 which discloses a removable device consisting of three parts to prevent shoe laces from disfiguring and interfering. The laces are inserted by two holes in a base portion and the laces are attached in a space by the intermediate portion which is covered by a decorative part. This device, in addition to its complexity, does not allow to vary the loosening of the laces in a simple way.
[0012] D'autres documents de l'art antérieur ont pour objectif d'éviter que les enfants ne défassent leurs lacets. On peut citer notamment le brevet US 5,918,352 qui décrit un dispositif permettant d'éviter aux enfants de défaire leurs lacets. Le dispositif en forme de petite boîte est inséré facilement sous le nœud de la boucle, le couvercle est famé et une sécurité permet de maintenir le couvercle en position fermée. Other documents of the prior art are intended to prevent children from undoing their laces. There may be mentioned in particular US Patent 5,918,352 which describes a device for preventing children from undoing their laces. The small box-shaped device is easily inserted under the loop node, the lid is famed and security keeps the lid in the closed position.
Objet de l'invention Object of the invention
[0013] Rien dans l'art antérieur ne permet de répondre aux inconvénients engendrés par les lacets coincés dans la chaussure, et ce pour éviter la formation de la boucle de maintien (le nœud) des lacets des chaussures. Nothing in the prior art can address the disadvantages caused by the laces stuck in the shoe, and to avoid the formation of the buckle of maintenance (the node) laces of the shoes.
[0014] La présente invention permet de résoudre ce problème des chaussures à lacets pour lesquelles certains utilisateurs ne souhaitent pas former les boucles de maintien. The present invention solves this problem lace shoes for which some users do not wish to form the holding loops.
[0015] L'inventeur a mis au point un dispositif simple et peu coûteux qui permet, de manière discrète sur la chaussure, de répondre au problème posé. Description générale de l'invention The inventor has developed a simple and inexpensive device that allows, discreetly on the shoe, to answer the problem. General description of the invention
[0016] Un premier objet selon l'invention consiste en un dispositif amovible pour bloquer et éliminer la boucle des lacets de chaussures constitué de deux pièces maintenues entre elles : A first object according to the invention consists of a removable device for blocking and eliminating the shoe laces loop consisting of two pieces held together:
[0017] - la première pièce dite stop-lacet (1 ) est plate, rigide et de forme quelconque et comprend un minimum de six (2n > 6, avec n étant un nombre entier de 3 à 5 ou plus) trous (2, 3, 4) pour passer et fixer l'extrémité des lacets, [0017] the first so-called stop-lace piece (1) is flat, rigid and of any shape and comprises a minimum of six (2n> 6, with n being an integer of 3 to 5 or more) holes (2, 3, 4) to pass and fix the ends of the laces,
[0018] - la seconde pièce, de mêmes dimensions en largeur et longueur que le stop-lacet (1 ), est un couvercle (5) de forme quelconque maintenu sur le stop-lacet (1 ) par des rainures intérieures (6) situées en bordure de couvercle, ou en d'autres mots, comme décrit plus en détail ci-dessous, la seconde pièce est un couvercle (5) de forme et de dimensions appropriées pour former une cavité (7) capable d'emprisonner l'extrémité des lacets (8) entre la paroi interne du couvercle (5) et le stop-lacet (1 ) et de forme et de dimensions appropriées en sa base pour s'adapter et être maintenu sur le stop-lacet (1 ) par des rainures intérieures (6) situées en bordure de couvercle. The second piece, of the same dimensions in width and length as the stop-lace (1), is a cover (5) of any shape maintained on the stop-lace (1) by internal grooves (6) located at the lid edge, or in other words, as described in more detail below, the second piece is a lid (5) of shape and dimensions suitable for forming a cavity (7) capable of trapping the end laces (8) between the inner wall of the lid (5) and the lace stop (1) and of appropriate shape and size at its base to fit and be held on the lace stop (1) by grooves interior (6) located at the edge of the lid.
[0019] La forme (contour) du stop-lacet peut être généralement quelconque, par exemple ovale, ronde, carrée, rectangulaire, polygonale ou même irrégulière et celle de la base du couvercle est choisie de manière s'adapter à cette forme et ainsi s'emboîter par les rainures sur le stop-lacet. En d'autres mots, l'ouverture formée par la base (bordure) du couvercle présente des dimensions sensiblement identiques et une forme essentiellement complémentaire à celles du stop-lacet. Le couvercle lui-même peut être essentiellement plat (avec des bords droits) ou de préférence galbé. Le dispositif présente en général une épaisseur totale fermée d'au plus 10 mm, de préférence d'au plus 8 mm, de manière davantage préférée d'au plus 6 mm. The shape (outline) of the stop-lace can be generally any, for example oval, round, square, rectangular, polygonal or even irregular and that of the base of the lid is chosen to adapt to this shape and so snap into the grooves on the stop-lace. In other words, the opening formed by the base (border) of the cover has substantially identical dimensions and a shape substantially complementary to those of the stop-lace. The lid itself can be essentially flat (with straight edges) or preferably curved. The device generally has a total closed thickness of at most 10 mm, preferably at most 8 mm, more preferably at most 6 mm.
[0020] Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier aux inconvénients de cette nouvelle tendance de la mode notamment de la façon suivante : The device according to the invention overcomes the disadvantages of this new fashion trend including the following way:
[0021 ] - Les lacets ne sont plus rentrés dans les chaussures mais restent enroulés dans le couvercle du dispositif par exemple sur une longueur de 2 à 4 cm environ, sans nuire à l'esthétique de la chaussure. [0022] - Le dispositif permet un serrage réglable des lacets par le passage desdits lacets dans les trous. - The laces are no longer entered into the shoes but remain wrapped in the device cover for example over a length of 2 to 4 cm, without harming the aesthetics of the shoe. - The device allows an adjustable tightening laces by the passage of said laces in the holes.
[0023] - Les lacets ne risquent plus de ressortir des chaussures puisque leur bout reste dans le couvercle, il n'existe plus aucun problème de douleur ou de chute dû aux lacets non attachés. - The laces are no longer likely to come out of the shoes since their end remains in the lid, there is no longer any problem of pain or falling due to unattached laces.
[0024] Les avantages du dispositif selon l'invention sont notamment les suivants : The advantages of the device according to the invention are in particular the following:
[0025] - Il s'adapte parfaitement à la tendance actuelle et au besoin esthétique de la jeunesse. [0025] - It perfectly adapts to the current trend and the aesthetic need of youth.
[0026] - Il s'adapte très facilement et très rapidement à tout type de chaussures à lacets. - It adapts very easily and very quickly to any type of lace-up shoes.
[0027] - Il autorise un réglage de la longueur du lacet en général de 2 à 4 cm à chaque extrémité des lacets afin de s'adapter à chaque saison. It allows adjustment of the length of the lace in general from 2 to 4 cm at each end of the laces to adapt to each season.
[0028] - Il permet aux personnes handicapées, dont l'usage d'une main n'est pas possible, de mettre et enlever leurs chaussures facilement. [0028] It allows disabled persons, whose use of a hand is not possible, to put on and take off their shoes easily.
[0029] - Le couvercle plat ou galbé peut être doté d'un design. Il est de faible épaisseur et il peut recevoir sur le dessus l'impression ou l'incrustation d'un logo, d'une marque, d'un dessin décoratif ou commercial, ce qui lui donne un atout décoratif et commercial indéniable. - The flat or curved lid can be equipped with a design. It is thin and it can receive on the top the printing or inlay of a logo, a brand, a decorative or commercial design, which gives it an undeniable decorative and commercial advantage.
[0030] - Les deux pièces sont de plus d'une grande simplicité de fabrication et le coût dudit dispositif est faible. - Both parts are more of a great simplicity of manufacture and the cost of said device is low.
[0031 ] Contrairement à certains dispositif connus, le présent dispositif permet donc d'enfermer entièrement les extrémités des lacets, sans devoir faire de nœud, il ne comprend pas de charnière et n'a pas besoin de broches fixées sur le couvercle pour coincer les lacets. Unlike some known devices, the present device allows to completely enclose the ends of the laces, without having to knot, it does not include a hinge and does not need pins attached to the cover to jam the laces.
[0032] Dans la présente invention, on entend par: In the present invention, the following terms mean:
[0033] - « rigide » le fait que la pièce stop-lacet ne se torde pas et maintienne sa forme plate malgré la tension engendrée par le passage des lacets dans les trous pour effectuer le maintien et/ou le serrage des lacets, [0034] - « maintenu sur le couvercle » le fait que le couvercle ferme la pièce stop-lacet et reste solidaire de celle-ci. « Les deux pièces maintenues entre elles » signifie également que la pièce stop-lacet (1 ) et le couvercle (5) ne forme qu'une seule et même pièce une fois le couvercle emboîté sur le stop-lacet par pression sur les rainures intérieures (6) du couvercle. - "rigid" the fact that the stop-yaw piece does not twist and maintains its flat shape despite the tension generated by the passage of the laces in the holes to perform the maintenance and / or tightening of the laces, - "maintained on the lid" the fact that the lid closes the piece stop-lace and remains integral therewith. "The two pieces held together" also means that the stop-lace piece (1) and the cover (5) form one and the same piece once the cover is fitted on the lace stopper by pressing on the inner grooves (6) of the lid.
[0035] Un deuxième objet de l'invention concerne une méthode pour bloquer et éliminer la boucle des lacets de chaussures, comprenant l'utilisation d'un dispositif selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 6 par chaussure, dans laquelle A second object of the invention relates to a method for blocking and eliminating the loop of shoe laces, comprising the use of a device according to any one of claims 1 to 6 by shoe, wherein
[0036] - chaque extrémité libre du lacet est passée successivement (alternativement) par un premier trou d'un premier côté du stop-lacet vers le second côté, puis par le deuxième trou de nouveau vers le premier côté, ensuite par le troisième trou de nouveau vers le deuxième côté, et - Each free end of the lace is passed successively (alternatively) by a first hole of a first side of the stop-lace to the second side, then by the second hole again to the first side, then by the third hole back to the second side, and
[0037] - le couvercle est emboîté sur le stop-lacet de manière à former la cavité entre le second côté du stop-lacet (où se trouvent les extrémités des lacets) et l'intérieur du couvercle. - The cover is fitted on the stop-lace so as to form the cavity between the second side of the stop-lace (where the ends of the laces are located) and the inside of the cover.
[0038] En cas d'un nombre de trous supérieur à six (2n avec n>3) Description d'une exécution préférée In case of a number of holes greater than six (2n with n> 3) Description of a preferred embodiment
[0039] Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention et sont des modes de réalisation non limitatifs de son objet. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention and are non-limiting embodiments of its object.
[0040] La figure 1 représente le stop-lacet (1 ) et son couvercle (5). Les deux lacets sont indiqués comme entrant par l'orifice 2, puis 3, puis 4 pour rester enfermés dans le couvercle. L'extrémité des lacets est indiquée en 8 et la partie des lacets allant vers la chaussure est indiquée en 9. La rainure 6 du couvercle permet au bord de la pièce stop-lacet 1 de s'insérer dans le couvercle par simple pression des doigts. Figure 1 shows the stop-lace (1) and its cover (5). Both laces are indicated as entering through port 2, then 3, then 4 to remain locked in the lid. The end of the laces is indicated at 8 and the part of the laces going to the shoe is indicated at 9. The groove 6 of the lid allows the edge of the stop-lace piece 1 to be inserted into the lid by simply pressing the fingers. .
[0041 ] La figure 2 représente une vue en coupe du dispositif selon l'invention, illustrant le principe de fixation du couvercle sur la pièce stop-lacet et le principe de maintien des lacets. Le sens d'insertion des lacets dans la partie stop-lacet est illustré par une flèche sur un lacet. Figure 2 shows a sectional view of the device according to the invention, illustrating the principle of fixing the cover on the stop-lace part and the principle of maintaining the laces. The insertion direction of the laces in the stop-lace part is illustrated by an arrow on a lace.
[0042] Les dimensions et la forme de la pièce stop-lacet (1 ) peuvent varier pour s'adapter aux divers lacets existants. [0043] Dans le dispositif selon l'invention, la pièce stop-lacet est plate et rigide et permet ainsi de maintenir les lacets sans que ceux-ci ne se desserrent. Les six trous minimum dans la pièce stop-lacet autorisent le passage des deux lacets qui sont ainsi bloqués. The size and shape of the stop-lace piece (1) may vary to accommodate the various existing laces. In the device according to the invention, the stop-yaw piece is flat and rigid and allows to maintain the laces without them loosen. The six minimum holes in the stop-lace part allow the passage of the two laces which are thus blocked.
[0044] La pièce stop-lacet doit maintenir une rigidité suffisante pour ne pas se déformer sous la pression des lacets. Pour ce faire, elle est constituée en un matériau rigide comme par exemple l'aluminium ou un plastique rigide, de préférence en plastique rigide dont l'épaisseur est comprise entre 1 et 1 ,5 mm. The stop-lace piece must maintain sufficient rigidity not to deform under the pressure of the laces. To do this, it is made of a rigid material such as aluminum or a rigid plastic, preferably rigid plastic whose thickness is between 1 and 1.5 mm.
[0045] A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le stop-lacet aura des dimensions d'environ 2 cm de largeur, 3 cm de longueur et 1 mm d'épaisseur. By way of non-limiting example, the stop-lace will have dimensions of about 2 cm in width, 3 cm in length and 1 mm in thickness.
[0046] La pièce stop-lacet peut comprendre jusqu'à dix trous pour permettre un maintien des deux lacets. Cependant six trous est le mode de réalisation préférentiel selon l'invention dans la mesure où le dispositif présentera une longueur raisonnable et la pièce stop-lacet n'aura pas tendance à se tordre sous la pression des lacets insérés dans les trous ou orifices. The stop-lace piece may include up to ten holes to allow maintenance of the two laces. However, six holes is the preferred embodiment according to the invention insofar as the device will have a reasonable length and the stop-lace piece will not tend to bend under the pressure of the laces inserted into the holes or orifices.
[0047] La pièce stop-lacet peut présenter toute forme quelconque, notamment une forme ovale, ronde, carrée ou rectangulaire. Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel selon l'invention, la pièce stop lacet est de forme ovale. The stop-lace piece may have any shape, including an oval, round, square or rectangular. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the lace stop piece is oval.
[0048] La façon de stopper le lacet consiste à faire passer l'extrémité du lacet (8) d'abord par l'orifice latéral (2), puis par un orifice central (3) pour enfin le refaire passer par le second orifice latéral (4) afin que l'extrémité du lacet (8) se retrouve dans la cavité (7). La fixation du lacet se fait par serrage en pressant d'une main le stop-lacet sur le dernier œillet (9) de sortie de la chaussure, et en tirant de l'autre main l'extrémité du lacet (8). The way to stop the lace is to pass the end of the lace (8) first through the side opening (2), then through a central hole (3) to finally redo it through the second hole lateral (4) so that the end of the lace (8) is found in the cavity (7). The binding of the lace is made by tightening by pressing with one hand the stop-lace on the last eyelet (9) output of the shoe, and pulling with the other hand the end of the lace (8).
[0049] Après serrage, il restera environ 3 centimètres de lacet entre l'orifice (4) de sortie du stop lacet (1 ) et l'extrémité du lacet (8). After tightening, there will remain about 3 centimeters of lace between the orifice (4) of the lace stop exit (1) and the end of the lace (8).
[0050] Les 3 centimètres de lacet entre l'orifice (4) de sortie du stop lacet (1 ) et l'extrémité du lacet (8) restent enroulés et bloqués dans le volume intérieur ou cavité du couvercle (7), emprisonnés entre la paroi interne du couvercle (5) et le stop-lacet (1 ). [0051 ] Afin que les lacets ne dépassent pas de plus de 4 cm, il est possible soit de couper l'extrémité des lacets, soit de changer le lacet d'origine pour le remplacer par un lacet plus court. Le but étant d'avoir une extrémité du lacet dans la cavité qui ne dépasse pas, après passage dans le dernier trou de la pièce stop- lacet, de 4 cm de longueur maximum. The 3 cm of lace between the hole (4) of the lace stop (1) and the end of the lace (8) remain wound and locked in the interior volume or cavity of the lid (7), trapped between the inner wall of the cover (5) and the stop-lace (1). So that the laces do not exceed more than 4 cm, it is possible to cut the end of the laces, or change the original lace to replace it with a shorter lace. The goal is to have one end of the lace in the cavity that does not exceed, after passing through the last hole of the stop-lace piece, 4 cm maximum length.
[0052] Le serrage et le desserrage des lacets peuvent se faire simplement par coulissage des lacets dans les trous. Cette technique est simple et efficace rapidement. The tightening and loosening of the laces can be done simply by sliding the laces in the holes. This technique is simple and effective quickly.
[0053] Les dimensions et la forme du couvercle peuvent varier pour s'adapter en premier lieu à la forme de la pièce stop-lacet. Elle peut notamment prendre une forme ovale, ronde, carrée ou rectangulaire en sa base. Outre la forme en sa base, le couvercle peut présenter toute forme, angulaire ou ronde, toute forme de fantaisie et décorative, pour former la cavité (7). The dimensions and shape of the lid may vary to fit in the first place to the shape of the stop-lace piece. It can in particular take an oval, round, square or rectangular shape at its base. In addition to the shape at its base, the cover may have any shape, angular or round, any form of fantasy and decorative, to form the cavity (7).
[0054] Le couvercle sera de préférence en matière plastique afin de permettre l'insertion des rainures situées en bordure de couvercle sur la pièce stop-lacet. Tout autre matériau souple, permettant l'insertion des rainures sur la pièce stop- lacet, peut être utilisé. The cover will preferably be plastic to allow the insertion of the grooves located at the lid edge on the stop-lace piece. Any other flexible material, allowing the insertion of the grooves on the stop-lace part, can be used.
[0055] Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel selon l'invention, le couvercle présente la forme d'une capsule de forme ovale de préférence. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the lid has the shape of a capsule of oval shape preferably.
[0056] La hauteur du couvercle peut varier par exemple de 3 à 10 mm. Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel, le couvercle présente une hauteur de 6 mm. The height of the cover may vary for example from 3 to 10 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the lid has a height of 6 mm.
[0057] Dans le dispositif préféré selon l'invention, la pièce stop-lacet (1 ) comprend six trous et l'épaisseur totale du dispositif est d'environ 6 à 10 mm. In the preferred device according to the invention, the stop-lace part (1) comprises six holes and the total thickness of the device is about 6 to 10 mm.
[0058] Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à bloquer des lacets par un système de serrage par passage de l'extrémité des lacets dans un nombre impair d'au moins trois trous par lacet et à les masquer par un couvercle décoratif. The device according to the invention is particularly intended to block laces by a clamping system by passing the end of the laces in an odd number of at least three holes by lace and hide them by a decorative cover.
[0059] Les lacets en coton ou nylon® sont correctement stoppés dans le dispositif selon l'invention. Une fois insérés dans les trous ou orifices de la pièce stop-lacet, ils ne glissent pas et permettent ainsi de maintenir la chaussure fermée à souhait (lâche ou fermement serrée). [0060] Les trous bloquant les lacets dans la pièce stop-lacet présentent une dimension adaptée aux lacets pour permettre un serrage et maintien des lacets. La dimension des trous sera de préférence juste supérieure au diamètre des lacets permettant de laisser passer les lacets pour effectuer le serrage, sans pour autant que les lacets puissent coulisser. Laces cotton or nylon® are correctly stopped in the device according to the invention. Once inserted into the holes or holes of the stop-lace part, they do not slip and thus allow to keep the shoe closed at will (loose or firmly tightened). The holes blocking the laces in the stop-lace piece have a dimension adapted to the laces to allow clamping and maintaining the laces. The size of the holes will preferably be just greater than the diameter of the laces allowing the laces to pass through in order to effect tightening, without the laces being able to slide.
