Abstract

The boot for skiing, mountain or country walking comprises a rigid shell (1) on which is articulated, about a transverse spindle (8), an upper (2, 3). The upper is articulated around two portions of the spindle (8) which are locked in respect of transverse translational movement and capable of being displaced while each is being guided in a longitudinal slot arranged in the bottom of the upper (2, 3). The boot also advantageously comprises a tongue (12), at the base of the leg, articulated (at 13) transversely relative to the shell (1). The articulations (8, 13) with slots (9, 14) make it possible to enable the ankle to move naturally whilst being securely held. <IMAGE>

Description

L'invention est relative à une chaussure destinée à la pratique du ski, de la montagne, ou de la randonnée et comprenant une coque inférieure rigide portant la semelle et une tige articulée par rapport à la coque rigide autour d'un axe transversal.The invention relates to a shoe intended for the practice of skiing, of the mountain, or of hiking and comprising a rigid lower shell carrying the sole and a rod articulated with respect to the rigid shell around a transverse axis.

Ce type de chaussure, par l'articulation réglable ou non de la tige sur la coque, représente une amélioration certaine par rapport aux chaussures antérieurement connues, cependant il ne laisse que très peu de liberté de mouvement pour skier et marcher dans de bonnes conditions de confort, une assez grande amplitude de flexion de la cheville étant hautement souhaitable. Par ailleurs, le bas de tige et le dessus de la coque rigide peuvent exercer sur le cou-de-pied des pressions locales indésirables qui sont à l'origine de douleurs, du fait du non-respect de l'anatomie et du mouvement naturel de la cheville. La présence éventuelle d'une chaussure intérieureen matériau mou et relativement confortable en position statique ne résoud pas ce problème car il ne peut compenser que très partiellement la rigidité de la chaussure lors des mouvements naturels de flexion autour de la cheville.This type of shoe, by the adjustable articulation or not of the rod on the shell, represents a definite improvement compared to previously known shoes, however it leaves very little freedom of movement for skiing and walking in good conditions. comfort, a fairly large degree of flexion of the ankle being highly desirable. In addition, the bottom of the upper and the top of the rigid shell can exert on the instep undesirable local pressures which are at the origin of pains, due to the non-respect of the anatomy and the natural movement. ankle. The possible presence of an inner shoe made of a soft and relatively comfortable material in a static position does not solve this problem because it can only very partially compensate for the stiffness of the shoe during natural bending movements around the ankle.

La présente invention vise à surmonter ces inconvénients en restituant à la cheville une liberté de flexion suffisante permettant la marche dans de meilleures conditions de confort et une meilleure absorption des irrégularités, bosses et creux, dans la pratique du ski, ce qui se traduira par une plus grande souplesse et une fatigue moindre des muscles du fait que la position d'équilibre pourra être assurée sans contrainte douloureuse. La sécurité s'en trouvera donc accrue.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks by restoring sufficient freedom of flexion to the ankle allowing walking in better conditions of comfort and better absorption of irregularities, bumps and hollows, in skiing, which will result in a greater flexibility and less fatigue of the muscles because the equilibrium position can be ensured without painful constraint. Security will therefore be increased.

Ce but est atteint en permettant à la tige non seulement de tourner par rapport à la coque autour de l'axe transversal d'articulation lors des appuis avant ou arrière, mais aussi de pouvoir respectivement reculer ou avancer d'une certaine quantité par rapport à cet axe pendant le mouvement de rotation.This object is achieved by allowing the rod not only to rotate relative to the shell around the transverse axis of articulation during the front or rear supports, but also to be able to respectively retreat or advance by a certain amount relative to this axis during the rotational movement.

L'invention dont les caractéristiques font l'objet des revendications est exposée dans la description qui suit et pour l'intelligence de laquelle on se référera aux dessins dont :

  • - La figure 1 représente schématiquement une chaussure conforme à l'invention.
  • - La figure 2 représente la même en vue partielle, la partie antérieure de la tige étant arrachée.
The invention, the features of which are the subject of the claims, is set out in the following description, for the understanding of which reference will be made to the drawings, of which:
  • - Figure 1 schematically shows a shoe according to the invention.
  • - Figure 2 shows the same in partial view, the front part of the rod being torn off.

La chaussure selon l'invention représentes à la figure 1 com-porte de façon connue une coque rigide 1 portant la semelle et destinée à recevoir le pied avec ou sans chausson intermédiaire, et une tige 2,3 pour le bas de jambe. la tige 2,3 peut être réalisée en une seule pièce avec ouverture avec ou sans rabats permettant le chaussage et porte un dispositif de fermeture 4 à crochets ou autre. De façon avantageuse, et comme représenté, la tige 2,3 comportera une manchette 2 et un capot arrière 3. La coque 1 peut être fermée sur le cou-de-pied ou, comme à la figure 1, être ouverte et coiffée par une ilanguette 5 assujettie à la coque 1 par un dispositif 6 lui permettant avantageusement un certain jeu dans le sens longitudinal. La manchette 2 peut alors porter une bride de fermeture 7 passant sur cette languette 5.The shoe according to the invention represented in FIG. 1 carries in a known manner a rigid shell 1 carrying the sole and intended to receive the foot with or without an intermediate liner, and a rod 2,3 for the lower leg. the rod 2,3 can be made in a single piece with opening with or without flaps allowing the fitting and carries a closure device 4 with hooks or the like. Advantageously, and as shown, the rod 2,3 will include a cuff 2 and a rear cover 3. The shell 1 can be closed on the instep or, as in Figure 1, be open and capped by a ilanguette 5 secured to the shell 1 by a device 6 advantageously allowing it a certain play in the longitudinal direction. The cuff 2 can then carry a closure flange 7 passing over this tongue 5.

De façon connue, la tige 2,3 en une ou deux pièces, est articulée par rapport à la coque 1 autour d'un axe transversal 8 matérialisé de part et d'autre de la chaussure par deux pivots 8 munis de tête pour les arrêter en translation dans le sens transversal par rapport à la coque 1 et au bas de tige 2,3 qu'ils traversent. De façon connue également, les pivots 8 sont fixes en position par rapport à la coque 1 soit de façon définitive, soit après avoir été réglés en hauteur par rapport à celle-ci au moyen, par exemple, d'un dispositif tel que celui décrit dans la demande de brevet FR 2433311. Ces dispositifs permettent une bonne tenue du pied adaptée à son anatomie propre mais l'axe d'articulation 8 ne permet pas une amplitude de flexion suffisante autour de la cheville dans les appuis avant ou arrière. Il s'ensuit des pressions locales douloureuses, une grande fatigue musculaire et par suite des risques d'accidents..In known manner, the rod 2,3 in one or two parts, is articulated relative to the shell 1 around a transverse axis 8 materialized on either side of the shoe by two pivots 8 provided with head to stop them in translation in the transverse direction relative to the shell 1 and to the bottom of the rod 2,3 which they pass through. Also in known manner, the pivots 8 are fixed in position relative to the shell 1 either definitively or after having been adjusted in height relative to the latter by means, for example, of a device such as that described in patent application FR 2433311. These devices allow a good hold of the foot adapted to its own anatomy but the articulation axis 8 does not allow a sufficient amplitude of flexion around the ankle in the front or rear supports. This results in painful local pressure, great muscular fatigue and therefore the risk of accidents.

Pour éviter ces inconvénients et restituer à l'articulation de la cheville ses mouvements naturels tout en maintenant correctement le pied et le bas de jambe, la manchette 2 et le capot arrière 3 (ou la tige en une seule pièce) portent de chaque côté au droit de l'articulation une lumière 9 de direction générale longitudinale par rapport à la chaussure et traversée par le pivot 8 correspondant. Dans un mouvement de flexion du bas de jambe, la tige 2,3 va non seulement subir une rotation autour de l'axe 8, mais les pivots 8 fixes par rapport à la coque 1 vont se déplacer selon une certaine amplitude dans les lumières 9. En flexion avant, le bas de tige 2,3 va donc se déplacer vers l'arrière en suivant les lumières 9 et inversement dans le cas d'une flexion arrière. L'articulation de la cheville conserve donc ainsi sa liberté naturelle sans que soient induites des contraintes indésirables sur la cheville ou le cou-de-pied qui restent cependant parfaitement maintenus.To avoid these drawbacks and restore natural movement to the ankle joint while maintaining the foot and lower leg correctly, the cuff 2 and the rear cover 3 (or the rod in one piece) wear on each side to the right of the joint a light 9 of general longitudinal direction with respect to the shoe and crossed by the corresponding pivot 8. In a movement of flexion of the lower leg, the rod 2,3 will not only undergo a rotation around the axis 8, but the pivots 8 fixed relative to the shell 1 will move according to a certain amplitude in the lights 9 In front bending, the bottom of the rod 2,3 will therefore move backwards following the openings 9 and vice versa in the case of rear bending. The ankle joint thus retains its natural freedom without undue stresses being induced on the ankle or the instep which however remain perfectly maintained.

De façon avantageuse, les lumières 9 se présentent sous la forme générale d'arcs de cercle tournant leur concavité vers le haut.Advantageously, the openings 9 are in the general form of arcs of a circle turning their concavity upwards.

Le confort du porteur dans la région du pli de flexion de la partie frontale de la cheville et du bas de tibia peut encore être amélioré par un système de languettes associé à l'articulation transversale qui vient d'être décrite.The comfort of the wearer in the region of the flexion fold of the front part of the ankle and of the lower tibia can be further improved by a system of tabs associated with the transverse joint which has just been described.

Comme déjà dit, une languette 5 peut recouvrir la coque 1 ouverte sur le cou-de-pied et jouir d'un certain jeu dans le sens longitudinal par rapport à celle-ci. Cette languette 5 sur laquelle s'appuie le cou-de-pied va donc tout en maintenant parfaitement celui-ci, pouvoir le suivre dans ses mouvements de faible amplitude vers l'avant ou l'arrière.As already said, a tongue 5 can cover the shell 1 open on the instep and enjoy a certain play in the longitudinal direction relative to the latter. This tongue 5 on which the instep rests will therefore while maintaining it perfectly, be able to follow it in its movements of small amplitude towards the front or the rear.

Avantageusement, cette languette 5 se prolonge au-dessus du pli de flexion sous la manchette 2 jusqu'au bord supérieur de la chaussure. De préférence, une échancrure 10 la divise en deux branches 11 formant fourche devant la partie antéro-inférieure du tibia, de sorte que celle-ci puissent s'écarter dans les poussées vers l'avant et par leur élasticité revenir dans le cas contraire en suivant les déplacements vers l'avant ou l'arrière du bas de jambe.Advantageously, this tongue 5 extends above the bending fold under the cuff 2 to the upper edge of the shoe. Preferably, a notch 10 divides it into two branches 11 forming a fork in front of the anterior-lower part of the tibia, so that the latter can move apart in the thrusts forward and by their elasticity return otherwise according to the movements towards the front or the back of the lower leg.

Cette partie supérieure 11 de la languette 5 peut à son tour être recouverte par une demi-languette 12 enveloppant la partie antérieure du bas de jambe sous la manchette 2. Avantageusement cette demi-languette 12 sera articulée sur la première 5 autour de deux pivots latéraux 13 fixes par rapport à celle-ci 11 et au dessus du pli de flexion pour suivre les déplacements de la partie supérieure 11 de cette première languette 5. Cette possibilité de souplesse peut encore être améliorée en faisant passer chaque pivot 13 dans une lumière 14 approximativement verticale ou légèrement oblique et ménagée dans la demi-languette 12. Cette demi-languette 12 pourra se déplacer légèrement vers le haut ou le bas par rapport aux pivots 13 tout en pouvant tourner autour d'eux en épousant les déplacements du bas de jambe. Ainsi seront supprimées les zones douloureuses dues aux pressions locales intempestives communes dans cette région.This upper part 11 of the tongue 5 can in turn be covered by a half-tongue 12 enveloping the front part of the lower leg under the cuff 2. Advantageously this half-tongue 12 will be articulated on the first 5 around two lateral pivots 13 fixed relative to the latter 11 and above the bending fold to follow the displacements of the upper part 11 of this first tongue 5. This possibility of flexibility can be further improved by passing each pivot 13 through a lumen 14 approximately vertical or slightly oblique and formed in the half-tongue 12. This half-tongue 12 can move slightly up or down relative to the pivots 13 while being able to rotate around them by matching the movements of the lower leg. Thus will be removed the painful areas due to untimely local pressure common in this region.

Dans le cas où la coque 1 ne serait pas ouverte sur le cou-de-pied, la languette 5 disparaîtrait dans sa partie antérieure et sa partie supérieure 11 pourrait subsister et s'accrocher sur la coque 1. La demi-languette extérieure 12 serait alors articulée directement sur la coque 1 de la même manière qu'elle l'était sur la languette 5.In the case where the shell 1 would not be open on the instep, the tongue 5 would disappear in its front part and its upper part 11 could remain and hang on the shell 1. The external half-tongue 12 would then articulated directly on the shell 1 in the same way as it was on the tongue 5.

De ce qui précède on voit donc que le pied tout en restant constamment fermement tenu tant dans la coque rigide que dans la tige, pourra toujours conserver ses mouvements naturels de flexion soit pour la pratique du ski, soit pour la marche, ce qui doit faire disparaître de nombreuses fatigues musculaires et la plupart des accidents qui en résultent.From the above it can therefore be seen that the foot, while remaining constantly firmly held both in the rigid shell and in the upper, will still be able to retain its natural flexing movements either for skiing or for walking, which must do disappear many muscular fatigue and most of the accidents which result from it.

L'invention peut s'appliquer à toute chaussure à coque rigide et tige en une seule ou en deux pièces. Elle présente en outre l'avantage important de compenser automatiquement les gonflements et autres déformations, de la coque, qui se traduisent habituellement, elles aussi, par des compressions locales indésirables sur le pied.The invention can be applied to any shoe with rigid shell and upper in one or two pieces. It also has the important advantage of automatically compensating for swelling and other deformations of the shell, which also usually result in unwanted local compression on the foot.
