Abstract

Athletic shoe sole with cleats having exchangeble grip elements that are snap-locked to a mounting stud. The grip element can easily be inserted and removed again, without impairment of shoe sole stability or danger of damage thereto, by the provision of interactive engagement formations, comprised of a minimum of one raised area 16, 17, 26 and a complementary recessed area 19, 28, that have at least one inclined surface that produces a relative axial shifting between the gripping element and mounting stud when the gripping element is rotated about its longitudinal axis. Preferably, the raised areas 16, 17, 26 are arranged such that, in the snap-locked condition, they do not have operative contact with the recessed areas 19, 28, but can be brought into operative contact by rotating grip element 11 around its longitudinal axis x, and thereafter the grip element 11 can be pressed out over the catch point of the snap-lock device or snap-lock devices 8, 12 to release the grip element from the mounting stud.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Sportschuh gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1, wie er beispielsweise aus der DE-A-2 810 363 bekannt ist.The present invention relates to a sports shoe according to the preamble of claim 1, as is known for example from DE-A-2 810 363.

Bei derartigen Sportschuhen ist es bekannt, die Greifelemente in zylindrische Gewindeöffnungen der Schuhsohle einzuschrauben. Hierdurch wird die Schuhsohle an den Befestigungsstellen geschwächt. Durch die hohe Belastung, die die Greifelemente auf die Gewindeöffnungen ausüben, besteht die Gefahr, dass diese - jedenfalls bei Überbelastungen - ausgeweitet oder gar beschädigt werden, so dass ein sicherer Halt der Greifelemente nicht mehr bei allen Arten von Belastungen gewährleistet ist.In such sports shoes, it is known to screw the gripping elements into cylindrical threaded openings in the sole of the shoe. This weakens the sole of the shoe at the fastening points. Due to the high load that the gripping elements exert on the threaded openings, there is a risk that they will be expanded or even damaged, at least in the event of overloading, so that a secure hold of the gripping elements is no longer guaranteed under all types of loads.

Mit der Erfindung soll bei einem Sportschuh der eingangs genannten Art die Aufgabe gelöst werden, die Greifelemente und die Schuhsohle so auszubilden, dass diese leicht einsetzbar und auch wieder leicht entfernbar sind. Dies soll möglichst ohne Herabsetzung der Festigkeit der Schuhsohle und ohne die Gefahr von deren Beschädigung ermöglicht werden.With a sports shoe of the type mentioned in the introduction, the invention is intended to solve the problem of designing the gripping elements and the sole of the shoe in such a way that they are easy to use and also easy to remove. This should be possible without reducing the strength of the shoe sole and without the risk of damaging it.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruches 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Durch das elastische Material der Greifelemente oder ihres der Schuhsohle zugewandten Teils, das günstigerweise auch weicher oder elastischer ist als das der Zapfen und/oder das Sohlenmaterial selbst, wird ein leichtes Aufrasten und Entfernen ohne Beschädigung der Schuhsohle erreicht. Durch die vorgesehenen Erhöhungen nach Art einer schiefen Ebene wird bei Verdrehen des Greifelementes ein Abhebedruck erzeugt, der das Greifelement über das Rastmoment nach aussen drückt. Somit können auch beim Entfernen der Greifelemente keinerlei Beschädigungen der Schuhsohle auftreten und die Entfernung sowie die eventuelle Neubestückung ist in sehr kurzer Zeit möglich.Due to the elastic material of the gripping elements or their part facing the shoe sole, which is advantageously also softer or more elastic than that of the pin and / or the sole material itself, it is easy to snap on and remove without damaging the shoe sole. Due to the provided elevations in the manner of an inclined plane, when the gripping element is rotated, a lifting pressure is generated which presses the gripping element outwards via the cogging torque. This means that no damage to the shoe sole can occur even when the gripping elements are removed, and removal and possible re-fitting is possible in a very short time.

In Figur 1 ist mit 1 ein Teil einer Schuhsohle, insbesondere die Laufsohle eines Sportschuhes, beispielsweise eines Fussball-, Hockey- oder Feldhandballschuhes bezeichnet Diese besteht im allgemeinen aus einem einzigen Teil aus gespritztem oder gegossenem Kunststoff, wie Polyurethan, Polyäthylen, Polyamid, Hexamethylendiamin-Adipinsäure-Polykondensat oder dgl. Sie erstreckt sich über die gesamte Sohle, also bis zur Ferse. Es können aber auch der Absatz und das eigentliche Sohlenteil aus zwei getrennten Teilen bestehen, wobei dann in jedem dieser Teile die erfindungsgemässen, nachfolgend beschriebenen Zapfen vorgesehen sein können. Die Verteilung der Zapfen erfolgt in an sich bekannter Weise, beispielsweise nach dem Belastungsprofil der Sohle und/oder nach der erforderlichen Griffigkeit des Sportschuhes auf einem Spielfeld.In FIG. 1, 1 denotes a part of a shoe sole, in particular the outsole of a sports shoe, for example a football, hockey or field handball shoe. This generally consists of a single part made of injection-molded or cast plastic, such as polyurethane, polyethylene, polyamide, hexamethylene diamine. Adipic acid polycondensate or the like. It extends over the entire sole, that is to the heel. However, the heel and the actual sole part can also consist of two separate parts, in which case the pins according to the invention, described below, can then be provided in each of these parts. The tenons are distributed in a manner known per se, for example according to the load profile of the sole and / or according to the required grip of the sports shoe on a playing field.

In die Laufsohle 1 ist ein Zapfen 2 mittels eines an ihm angebrachten Flansches 3 fest eingespritzt oder eingegossen. Vorzugsweise sind im Flansch 3 Aussparungen 4, beispielsweise in Form von Durchbrüchen, vorgesehen, um eine gute Verankerung des Flansches 3 mit dem Sohlenmaterial zu gewährleisten. Grundsätzlich können die Zapfen 2 aber auch aus dem Material der Laufsohle 1 bestehen und damit mit dieser integriert sein.A pin 2 is firmly injected or cast into the outsole 1 by means of a flange 3 attached to it. Recesses 4, for example in the form of openings, are preferably provided in the flange 3 in order to ensure good anchoring of the flange 3 to the sole material. Basically, the pins 2 can also consist of the material of the outsole 1 and thus be integrated with the latter.

Der Zapfen 2 überragt die Sohlenlauffläche 5. Der Zapfen 2 kann zylindrisch oder kegelstumpfförmig ausgebildet sein und zwar mit der breiteren Basis an der Schuhsohle 1.The pin 2 projects beyond the sole tread 5. The pin 2 can be cylindrical or frustoconical in shape, namely with the wider base on the shoe sole 1.

Der Aussenmantel 6 des Zapfens 2 ist im Endbereich 7 mit einer als Ringnut 8 ausgebildeten Rastanordnung versehen. Die Schuhsohle 1 oder ein auf die Schuhsohle 1 gesondert aufgebrachter Sohlenteil ist mit einem Ringwulst 9 versehen, der den Zapfen 2 in einem gewissen Abstand umgibt, so dass zwischen dem Aussenmantel 6 des Zapfens 2 und der Innenwand des Ringwulstes 9 ein kreisförmiger Freiraum 10 gebildet ist.The outer jacket 6 of the pin 2 is provided in the end region 7 with a locking arrangement designed as an annular groove 8. The shoe sole 1 or a sole part applied separately to the shoe sole 1 is provided with an annular bead 9 which surrounds the pin 2 at a certain distance, so that a circular free space 10 is formed between the outer jacket 6 of the pin 2 and the inner wall of the annular bead 9 .

Auf den Zapfen 2 ist ein Greifelement 11 möglichst ohne Spiel aufsteckbar und in den Freiraum 10 möglichst spielfrei einsetzbar. Dieses Greifelement 11 besitzt als Rastmittel eine Ringrippe 12, die in die Ringnut 8 einrasten kann und damit das Greifelement 11 auf dem Zapfen 2 befestigt. Das Greifelement 11 liegt dabei zweckmässig mit seinem Boden 13 kraftschlüssig am freiliegenden Boden 14 des Flansches 3 an, der den Zapfenfuss 15 umgibt. Grundsätzlich können auch zwei oder mehr Ringrippen 12 bzw. Ringnuten 8 am Greifelement 11 bzw. am Zapfen 2 angebracht sein.A gripping element 11 can be plugged onto the pin 2 with as little play as possible and can be inserted into the free space 10 with as little play as possible. This gripping element 11 has as a locking means an annular rib 12 which can snap into the annular groove 8 and thus fasten the gripping element 11 on the pin 2. The gripping element 11 expediently rests with its base 13 in a force-fitting manner on the exposed base 14 of the flange 3, which surrounds the pin base 15. In principle, two or more ring ribs 12 or ring grooves 8 can also be attached to the gripping element 11 or to the pin 2.

Um das Greifelement 11 wieder leicht von dem Zapfen 2 entfernen zu können, sind am Boden 14 des Flansches 3 Erhöhungen 16 in Form von radialen, dachförmigen Rippen vorgesehen. Ebenso sind am inneren Ende des Greifelementes 11 Erhöhungen 17 mit den Bodenteilen 13 dadurch gebildet, dass der Fuss 18 des Greifelementes 11 mit radialen, dachförmigen Nuten 19 versehen ist, die mit den Erhöhungen 16 am Boden 14 des Flansches 3 korrespondieren. Es ist jeweils wenigstens eine Erhöhung 16 bzw. 17 am Zapfenboden 14 bzw. am Greifelementboden 13 vorgesehen und wenigstens eine davon ist auf wenigstens einer Seite als schiefe Ebene ausgebildet.In order to be able to easily remove the gripping element 11 again from the pin 2, 3 elevations 16 in the form of radial, roof-shaped ribs are provided on the bottom 14 of the flange. Likewise, elevations 17 are formed at the inner end of the gripping element 11 with the bottom parts 13 in that the foot 18 of the gripping element 11 is provided with radial, roof-shaped grooves 19 which correspond to the elevations 16 on the bottom 14 of the flange 3. At least one elevation 16 or 17 is provided on the pin base 14 or on the gripping element base 13, and at least one of them is designed as an inclined plane on at least one side.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäss den Fig. 1 bis 4 sind durch die dachförmige Ausbildung der Erhöhungen 16 bzw. der Nuten 19 beide Seiten schräg abfallend ausgebildet. Der leichteren Montage wegen sind sie derart einander zugeordnet ausgebildet, dass sie sich im verrasteten Zustand nicht oder nur geringfügig berühren. Erst wenn das Greifelement 11 um seine Längsachse x (Fig. 2) verdreht wird, gleitet eine Erhöhung 17 auf der schiefen Ebene der korrespondierenden Erhebung 16 oder beide schiefe Ebenen gleiten aufeinander. Dadurch entsteht eine Kraft in Richtung der Längsachse x, durch die das Greifelement 11 nach unten von der Schuhsohle 1 weggedrückt wird Die Höhe der Erhöhungen 16, 17 ist so bemessen, dass die Rastverbindung zwischen dem Zapfen 2 und dem Greifelement 11 überwunden wird, also die Ringrippe 12 aus der Ringnut 8 herausschnappt.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4, the roof-shaped design of the elevations 16 and the grooves 19 has both sides sloping. The easier one Because of assembly, they are designed to be assigned to one another in such a way that they do not touch or only touch slightly in the locked state. Only when the gripping element 11 is rotated about its longitudinal axis x (FIG. 2) does an elevation 17 slide on the inclined plane of the corresponding elevation 16 or both inclined planes slide on one another. This creates a force in the direction of the longitudinal axis x, by means of which the gripping element 11 is pressed downward from the shoe sole 1. The height of the elevations 16, 17 is dimensioned such that the latching connection between the pin 2 and the gripping element 11 is overcome, that is to say the Ring rib 12 snaps out of the ring groove 8.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung dieser Anordnung sieht vor, dass die Erhöhungen 16, 17 so angeordnet sind, dass das Greifelement 11 um einen toten Winkel a (Fig. 3) verdrehbar ist, ohne dass die Erhöhungen 16, 17 miteinander in Wirkverbindung kommen. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäss Fig. 3 ist dies dadurch möglich, dass die Bodenteile 13 des Greifelementes 11 kleiner sind als die Bodenteile 14 des Flansches 3. In die Fig. 3 ist ein solches Bodenteil 13 in ein entsprechendes Bodenteil 14 gestrichelt eingezeichnet. Auch ist der tote Winkel a eingetragen. Dabei ist hier vorausgesetzt, dass die Nut 19 tiefer ist als die Erhöhung 16.An advantageous embodiment of this arrangement provides that the elevations 16, 17 are arranged such that the gripping element 11 can be rotated by a blind angle a (FIG. 3) without the elevations 16, 17 coming into operative connection with one another. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3, this is possible in that the bottom parts 13 of the gripping element 11 are smaller than the bottom parts 14 of the flange 3. In FIG. 3, such a bottom part 13 is shown in dashed lines in a corresponding bottom part 14. The blind spot a is also entered. It is assumed here that the groove 19 is deeper than the elevation 16.

Um das Greifelement 11 gut drehen zu können, sind an ihm Schlüsselangriffsflächen 20 dadurch gebildet, dass in der Aussenwandung vorzugsweise spitzwinklige Einkerbungen 21 (Fig. 4) vorgesehen sind. Die Aussenwandung kann auch als Vier- oder Sechskant oder dgl. ausgebildet sein, so dass übliche Maulschlüssel Verwendung finden können und kein Spezialschlüssel erforderlich ist.In order to be able to rotate the gripping element 11 well, key engagement surfaces 20 are formed on it by preferably providing acute-angled notches 21 (FIG. 4) in the outer wall. The outer wall can also be designed as a square or hexagon or the like, so that conventional combination wrenches can be used and no special key is required.

Günstigerweise kann das Greifelement 11 aus zwei Teilen, nämlich dem als Rastteil ausgebildeten Greifelementteil 11' und dem das eigentliche Greifelement bildenden Greifstollen 11 bestehen. Diese Teile sind fest miteinander verbunden, beispielsweise verklebt oder verschweisst. Zur besseren Verankerung der beiden Teile 11', 11" können noch am Greifstollen 11 " angeformte Stifte 22 vorgesehen sein, die in entsprechende Bohrungen 23 des Greifelementes 11' eingreifen. Die Greifstollen 11 bestehen aus einem den Bodenverhältnissen in üblicher Weise angepassten Material.Conveniently, the gripping element 11 can consist of two parts, namely the gripping element part 11 ′ designed as a latching part and the gripping lug 11 forming the actual gripping element. These parts are firmly connected to each other, for example glued or welded. For better anchoring of the two parts 11 ', 11 ", molded pins 22" can also be provided on the gripping stud 11 ", which engage in corresponding bores 23 of the gripping element 11'. The gripping studs 11 consist of a material which is adapted to the soil conditions in the usual way.

Als Material für die Zapfen 2 wird relativ hartes oder auch sehr hartes und möglichst biegefestes Material verwendet. Bei an die Schuhsohle 1 angeformten Zapfen 2 besteht daher die Schuhsohle 1 oder wenigstens die Laufsohle, wenn die Schuhsohle aus unterschiedlichen Materialien besteht, aus derart hartem Material, wie beispielsweise Hart-PVC, Hart-Polyurethan, Polyäthylen, Polyamid, Polyimid, Polykarbonat oder dgl.. Bei der Verwendung von Zapfen 2 als eingesteckte oder eingerastete oder eingeformte Einzelelemente bestehen diese aus den genannten Kunststoffen, wobei die Sohle in diesem Falle aus einem weicheren Material bestehen kann.Relatively hard or also very hard material which is as resistant to bending as possible is used as the material for the pins 2. When molded onto the shoe sole 1, the shoe sole 1 or at least the outsole, if the shoe sole is made of different materials, consists of such a hard material, such as hard PVC, hard polyurethane, polyethylene, polyamide, polyimide, polycarbonate or the like .. When using pegs 2 as inserted, latched or molded individual elements, these consist of the plastics mentioned, in which case the sole can consist of a softer material.

Die Zapfen 2 können als Einzelelemente auch aus Metall, wie z.B. aus Aluminium, Kupfer, Messing, Bronce, Stahl, Zinkdruckguss oder dgl., oder aus Keramik, wie z.B. Aluminiumoxid, Zirkondioxid, Steatit, Siliziumkarbid oder dgl., oder aus Mischungen derselben mit anderen keramischen Versätzen wie Si02, CaO, MgO etc., bestehen.The pins 2 can also be used as individual elements made of metal, such as aluminum, copper, brass, bronze, steel, die-cast zinc or the like, or of ceramic, such as aluminum oxide, zirconium dioxide, steatite, silicon carbide or the like, or of mixtures thereof other ceramic offsets such as Si0 2 , CaO, MgO etc. exist.

Zur besseren Halterung des Greifelementes 11 auf dem Zapfen 2 kann noch ein sowohl in das Greifelement 11 bzw. in dessen Greifstollen 11" und in eine zentrale Bohrung 24 des Zapfens 2 eingreifender Bolzen 25 angebracht sein. Letzterer kann am Greifstollen 11 angeformt oder in sonst geeigneter Weise dort befestigt sein und er besteht zweckmässig aus einem gegenüber dem Greifelementmaterial zäherem, elastischem Material oder auch aus Metall.To better hold the gripping element 11 on the pin 2, a pin 25 engaging both in the gripping element 11 or in its gripping studs 11 ″ and in a central bore 24 of the pin 2 can also be attached Be fixed there and it suitably consists of a tougher than the gripping element material, elastic material or metal.

Gemäss einer anderen in den Fig. 5 und 6 dargestellten, gegebenenfalls zusätzlich anwendbaren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können die Mittel zum Abdrücken des Greifelementes 11 von dem Aussenmantel 6 des Zapfens 2 in Form von Gewindeabschnitten 26 eines mehrgängigen Gewindes vorgesehen sein. In diesem Fall ist die Innenwand 27 des Greifelementes 11 bzw. des Greifelementteiles 11" mit entsprechenden Gegengewindeabschnitten 28, beispielsweise in Form von entsprechenden Nuten versehen, die am Boden 13 offen sind.According to another embodiment of the invention shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, which may be additionally applicable, the means for pressing off the gripping element 11 from the outer jacket 6 of the pin 2 can be provided in the form of threaded sections 26 of a multi-start thread. In this case, the inner wall 27 of the gripping element 11 or the gripping element part 11 ″ is provided with corresponding counter-thread sections 28, for example in the form of corresponding grooves, which are open at the bottom 13.
