Description

Les systèmes de fermeture pour souliers actuellement utilisés présentent différents inconvénients qui sont notamment les suivants : dans le système à lacets, le plus répandu, les lacets s'usent rapidement et cassent lors d'une traction énergique, enfin le laçage est relativement long à réaliser ; dans le système à bandes élastiques, celles-ci se détendent rapidement et en l'absence de possibilité de réglage la chaussure a tendance à bailler enfin, dans le système à courroie il n'y a qu'une possibilité de réglage et il faut chaque fois passer la courroie libre dans la boucle et rechercher la position permettant à l'ardillon de pénétrer dans le trou de la courroie libre correspondant à la traction optimum. Ce système de fermeture (par exemple décrit dans US-A-2 925 672) nécessite une traction supplémentaire de la courroie pour pouvoir introduire l'ardillon dans le trou de la courroie et après cette introduction il se produit le recul de la courroie à sa position définitive.The closure systems for shoes currently used have various drawbacks which are in particular the following: in the lace system, the most widespread, the laces wear quickly and break during an energetic traction, finally the lacing is relatively long to realize ; in the elastic band system, these relax quickly and in the absence of adjustment possibility the shoe tends to yawn at last, in the belt system there is only one adjustment possibility and each once pass the free belt through the buckle and find the position allowing the barb to enter the hole in the free belt corresponding to optimum traction. This closing system (for example described in US-A-2 925 672) requires an additional traction of the belt to be able to introduce the barb in the hole of the belt and after this introduction the retraction of the belt occurs at its final position.

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de fermeture du type à courroie permettant d'obtenir deux réglages dont un permanent et fonction de la forme du pied et l'autre permettant d'assurer la fermeture proprement dite par un mouvement simple et rapide.The present invention relates to a closing device of the belt type making it possible to obtain two adjustments, one of which is permanent and depends on the shape of the foot and the other making it possible to ensure the actual closing by a simple and rapid movement.

Dans ce but, ce dispositif comprend un premier système de courroies fixé sur la face extérieure du soulier, un deuxième système de courroies fixé sur la face intérieure du soulier, les deux systèmes étant reliés entre eux par un passant métallique, le premier des systèmes étant du type classique à deux courroies, l'une des courroies étant munie à son extrémité libre d'une boucle avec ardillon dans laquelle est introduite l'extrémité libre de l'autre courroie percée de trous pour le passage de l'ardillon, sur le premier système,' étant enfilé le passant métallique de liaison avec le deuxième système qui est à une seule courroie passant dans ledit passant métallique et repliée sur elle-même, son extrémité libre venant s'accrocher sur un ergot fixé sur la partie de la courroie du deuxième système, partie qui est en contact avec l'empeigne.For this purpose, this device comprises a first system of belts fixed on the outside face of the shoe, a second system of belts fixed on the inside face of the shoe, the two systems being connected to each other by a metal loop, the first of the systems being of the conventional type with two belts, one of the belts being provided at its free end with a pin buckle into which is introduced the free end of the other belt pierced with holes for the passage of the barb, on the first system, 'being threaded the metal pass connecting with the second system which is a single belt passing through said metal pass and folded over on itself, its free end coming to hang on a lug fixed on the part of the belt of the second system, part which is in contact with the upper.

L'invention sera mieux comprise en se référant au dessin représentant un mode de réalisation donné à titre d'exemple et dans lequel :

  • la Figure 1 est une vue en élévation du côté intérieur du soulier muni du dispositif suivant l'invention ;
  • la Figure 2 est une vue en plan du soulier ;
  • la Figure 3 est une vue en élévation du côté extérieur du soulier ;
  • la Figure 4 est une coupe partielle à plus grande échelle de l'une des courroies suivant la ligne 4-4 de la Fig. 1 ;
  • la Figure 5 est une vue partielle en perspective du système de courroies de la Fig. 3.
The invention will be better understood by referring to the drawing representing an embodiment given by way of example and in which:
  • Figure 1 is an elevational view of the inner side of the shoe provided with the device according to the invention;
  • Figure 2 is a plan view of the shoe;
  • Figure 3 is an elevational view of the outer side of the shoe;
  • FIG. 4 is a partial section on a larger scale of one of the belts on line 4-4 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 is a partial perspective view of the belt system of FIG. 3.

En se reportant au dessin, on voit que sur la face interne 1 de l'empeigne au niveau du cou de pied du soulier sont fixées deux courroies parallèles 2 qui comportent chacune, dans la partie en contact avec l'empeigne 1, un bouton comprenant un disque 3 incorporé dans la courroie 2, une tige 4 faisant saillie et une tête arrondie 5 (bouton tibi genre bouton de faux col) destinée à pénétrer dans des trous 6 ménagés dans la partie libre de la courroie 2.Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that on the inner face 1 of the upper at the instep of the shoe are fixed two parallel belts 2 which each have, in the part in contact with the upper 1, a button comprising a disc 3 incorporated in the belt 2, a projecting rod 4 and a rounded head 5 (tibi button like button of false collar) intended to penetrate into holes 6 formed in the free part of the belt 2.

Sur la face externe 7 de l'empeigne, au niveau du cou de pied, sont fixées deux autres courroies parallèles 8 comprenant chacune deux brins indépendants 9 et 10, le premier 9 étant fixé à la partie inférieure de l'empeigne et le deuxième étant fixé à la partie supérieure de l'empeigne. Les deux extrémités libres des courroies 9 et 10 sont reliées entre elles de façon classique par une boucle 11 à ardillon 12 adaptée à l'extrémité de la courroie inférieure 9 et dont l'ardillon 12 est destiné à pénétrer dans des trous 13 ménagés à l'extrémité libre de la courroie 10.On the external face 7 of the vamp, at the instep, are fixed two other parallel belts 8 each comprising two independent strands 9 and 10, the first 9 being fixed to the lower part of the vamp and the second being attached to the upper part of the upper. The two free ends of the belts 9 and 10 are connected to each other in a conventional manner by a buckle 11 with a barb 12 adapted to the end of the lower belt 9 and whose barb 12 is intended to penetrate holes 13 formed at the free end of the belt 10.

Chaque courroie 9, 10 est reliée à la courroie 2 correspondante au moyen d'un passant métallique 14 enfilé sur la courroie 10 et dans lequel la courroie 2 est introduite puis repliée sur elle-même de façon que son extrémité libre puisse être appliquée sur sa partie fixe, le bouton tibi 4, 5 pénétrant dans un des trous 6 en fonction du serrage désiré.Each belt 9, 10 is connected to the corresponding belt 2 by means of a metal pass 14 threaded onto the belt 10 and into which the belt 2 is introduced and then folded back on itself so that its free end can be applied to its fixed part, the tibi button 4, 5 entering one of the holes 6 according to the desired tightening.

On voit que grâce à cette disposition on utilise le système de courroies 9, 10 pour assurer, une fois la courroie 2 fermée, un premier réglage en fonction de la forme du pied, l'ouverture et la fermeture étant réalisées ensuite uniquement avec la courroie 2 par simple enclenchement ou déclenchement du bouton tibi 5, un deuxième réglage étant assuré par le choix des trous 6.We see that thanks to this arrangement we use the belt system 9, 10 to ensure, once the strap 2 closed, a first adjustment according to the shape of the foot, the opening and closing then being performed only with the strap 2 by simple engagement or release of the tibi button 5, a second adjustment being ensured by the choice of holes 6.

Bien entendu, au lieu de systèmes à deux courroies parallèles, on pourrait utiliser des systèmes à une seule courroie ou à plus de deux courroies. D'autre part, la courroie 10, au lieu d'être fixée sur l'empeigne, pourrait être reliée directement à la courroie 9 en dessous de la boucle 11.Of course, instead of systems with two parallel belts, systems with a single belt or with more than two belts could be used. On the other hand, the strap 10, instead of being fixed on the upper, could be connected directly to the strap 9 below the loop 11.
