Description

La présente invention est du domaine de la sécurité des personnes exposées à glisser sur des sols pentus et/ou glissants et elle a pour objet un moyen général antidérapant comme décrit dans le document FR-A-10 33 312.The present invention is in the field of safety of people exposed to sliding on sloping and / or slippery floors and it relates to a general non-slip means as described in document FR-A-10 33 312.

Selon la présente invention, un dispositif antidérapant fixable à une chaussure au moyen de sangles, ledit dispositif comprenant essentiellement une surface antidérapante solidaire d'un patin, est caractérisé d'une manière générale en ce que la surface antidérapante est constituée d'au moins une couche de matériau alvéolaire élastique à cellules ouvertes et de faible densité.According to the present invention, a non-slip device which can be fixed to a shoe by means of straps, said device essentially comprising a non-slip surface secured to a shoe, is generally characterized in that the non-slip surface consists of at least one layer of low density elastic open cell foam material.

D'une façon avantageuse, ledit matériau alvéolaire élastique sera du groupe comprenant les mousses de caoutchouc naturel, les mousses de caoutchouc synthétique, les mousses de polyuréthanne, de polyéther, de polyester; par faible densité, on entend une densité comprise dans la fourchette de 30 à 40 kg/m3.Advantageously, said elastic cellular material will be of the group comprising natural rubber foams, synthetic rubber foams, polyurethane, polyether, polyester foams; by low density is meant a density in the range of 30 to 40 kg / m 3 .

La surface de cette couche de matériau, qui sera en contact avec le sol, devra avoir été coupée de telle sorte que l'ouverture des alvéoles soit en regard de celle sur laquelle sera utilisé le dispositif; par exemple, une peau extérieure de cette couche, généralement présente lorsque la mousse est formée, supprimerait le caractère antidérapant; la couche inférieure dite de contact devra donc avoir une structure d'éponge.The surface of this layer of material, which will be in contact with the ground, must have been cut so that the opening of the cells is opposite that on which the device will be used; for example, an outer skin of this layer, generally present when the foam is formed, would remove the non-slip character; the so-called contact lower layer must therefore have a sponge structure.

Suivant une forme particulière d'application, la surface antidérapante ou de contact est appliquée contre une seconde couche de matériau alvéolaire de forte élasticité située entre la face inférieure du patin et la couche, dite première, de matériau à cellules ouvertes.According to a particular form of application, the non-slip or contact surface is applied against a second layer of cellular material of high elasticity situated between the underside of the pad and the so-called first layer of open cell material.

Avantageusement, au moins une feuille de tissu extensible, tel que tricot de nylon, est collée entre les deux couches de mousse, l'adhérence de ladite feuille au moins étant plus grande sur la seconde couche que sur la première, d'où il résulte à la fois que la feuille de tissu s'oppose au déchirement des couches de mousse et qu'elle autorise l'échange de la première couche.Advantageously, at least one sheet of extensible fabric, such as nylon knit, is bonded between the two layers of foam, the adhesion of said sheet at least being greater on the second layer than on the first, from which it results both that the fabric sheet opposes the tearing of the layers of foam and that it allows the exchange of the first layer.

Les dispositions sus-définies étant appliquées à un patin du style dans lequel la surface antidérapante est fixée à un patin rigide lui-même fixable à la chaussure, le patin a une forme de coque rigide comportant en creux l'empreinte d'une chaussure; de préférence, la fixation du patin à la chaussure est réalisée par un couple de pièces dites platines, comportant un trou de passage d'axe et deux lumières allongées sensiblement dans le prolongement l'une de l'autre et orientées à environ 135° l'une par rapport à l'autre, le trou d'axe étant compris dans l'angle des lumières et étant destiné au passage d'une vis vissable dans des inserts disposés à la partie antérieure de la paroi de ladite empreinte et de chaque côté de celle-ci ; de préférence encore, l'emplacement de chaque platine est défini par une alvéole en creux dans la paroi de l'empreinte; de préférence encore, l'empreinte débouche à l'extérieur de la coque à sa partie postérieure, le débouché étant ponté par une barrette faisant fonction de poignée.The above-defined provisions being applied to a shoe of the style in which the non-slip surface is fixed to a rigid shoe itself which can be fixed to the shoe, the shoe has the shape of a rigid shell comprising in hollow the imprint of a shoe; preferably, the fixing of the shoe to the shoe is carried out by a couple of pieces called plates, comprising an axis passage hole and two slots elongated substantially in the extension of one another and oriented at about 135 ° l '' with respect to each other, the axis hole being included in the angle of the lights and being intended for the passage of a screw screw in inserts arranged at the front part of the wall of said cavity and on each side of it; more preferably, the location of each plate is defined by a hollow recess in the wall of the cavity; more preferably, the imprint opens on the outside of the shell at its rear part, the outlet being bridged by a bar acting as a handle.

Suivant une forme avantageuse du sanglage, ladite sangle est une sangle continue dont la longueur est telle qu'elle lui permet de passer quatre fois au-dessus de la chaussure, d'un côté à l'autre du pied en passant dans chacune des lumières des boucles, et deux fois derrière le talon, deux boucles assurant respectivement la fermeture de la bande sur elle-même et son renvoi.According to an advantageous form of the strap, said strap is a continuous strap whose length is such that it allows it to pass four times over the shoe, from one side to the other of the foot passing through each of the lights. loops, and twice behind the heel, two loops respectively ensuring the closure of the band on itself and its return.

Suivant une autre forme de réalisation ou d'application de l'invention, un dispositif antidérapant en forme de semelle souple fixable à la chaussure est caractérisé d'une manière générale en ce qu'il est constitué d'au moins une plaque de «mousse» et de moyens de fixation à une chaussure, solidaires de ladite plaque; de préférence, lesdits moyens de fixation sont constitués par des liens et lesdits liens sont rendus solidaires de ladite plaque par une toile tissée du genre gaze.According to another embodiment or application of the invention, a non-slip device in the form of a flexible sole which can be fixed to the shoe is generally characterized in that it consists of at least one "foam" plate. »And means of attachment to a shoe, integral with said plate; preferably, said fixing means are constituted by links and said links are made integral with said plate by a woven fabric of the gauze type.

Suivant une forme plus particulière de réalisation, une semelle de l'invention incorpore, empilés successivement, les éléments suivants: une première plaque de mousse, un couple de liens dépassant formant des boucles situées chacune vers le milieu des côtés du dispositif, la gaze, une seconde couche de mousse; les éléments empilés peuvent être assemblés par couture aussi bien qu'assemblés par collage.According to a more particular embodiment, a sole of the invention incorporates, stacked successively, the following elements: a first foam plate, a pair of protruding links forming loops each located towards the middle of the sides of the device, the gauze, a second layer of foam; the stacked elements can be assembled by sewing as well as assembled by gluing.

Suivant d'autres formes de réalisation, les moyens de fixation pourront être constitués par des éléments auto-agrippants, du genre de ceux commercialisés sous la marque déposée Velcro, certains de ces éléments étant fixés sur la face supérieure du dispositif d'autres éléments antagonistes étant destinés à être collés à la chaussure, ou encore être constitués par une feuille de plastique mince découpée suivant la forme des liens et boucles précités, ou encore constitués d'éléments adhésifs.According to other embodiments, the fixing means may be constituted by hook-and-loop elements, of the kind of those marketed under the registered trademark Velcro, some of these elements being fixed to the upper face of the device from other antagonistic elements. being intended to be glued to the shoe, or to be constituted by a thin plastic sheet cut according to the shape of the aforementioned links and loops, or also made up of adhesive elements.
