Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet une chaussure de ski munie d'un chausson intérieur de confort dépassant l'extrémité supérieure de la tige en matière synthétique semi-rigide munie d'au moins une boucle pour son serrage autour de la jambe, et comportant une courroie pour le serrage de la partie dépassante du chausson autour de la jambe.The present invention relates to a ski boot provided with an inner comfort boot exceeding the upper end of the rod in semi-rigid synthetic material provided with at least one loop for its tightening around the leg, and comprising a strap for tightening the protruding part of the liner around the leg.
De telles chaussures ont été mises sur le marché par plusieurs fabricants. On peut citer, à titre d'exemple, le modèle TSI PREFIT de LANGE et le modèle NR 981 de NORDICA. Le prolongement du chausson au-dessus de la tige, sur l'avant de celle-ci, a pour but d'améliorer le confort du skieur dont la jambe, lorsqu'elle est en flexion, vient s'appuyer en avant contre le chausson. La courroie a pour but d'assurer une tenue suffisante du chausson lors de cet appui en avant. Dans ces chaussures, la courroie serrant la partie dépassante du chausson est indépendante de la tige de la chaussure et agit uniquement sur le chausson, de telle sorte que la qualité de l'appui est limitée par la souplesse du chausson qui a tendance a fléchir trop facilement vers l'avant, réduisant ainsi la tenue du pied et le guidage du ski.Such shoes have been put on the market by several manufacturers. Examples include the TSI PREFIT model from LANGE and the NR 981 model from NORDICA. The extension of the liner above the upper, on the front thereof, is intended to improve the comfort of the skier whose leg, when in flexion, comes to rest forward against the liner . The purpose of the strap is to ensure sufficient hold of the liner during this forward pressing. In these shoes, the strap tightening the projecting part of the boot is independent of the upper of the shoe and acts only on the boot, so that the quality of the support is limited by the flexibility of the boot which tends to bend too much. easily forward, reducing foot hold and ski guidance.
Du document FR-A-2 498 431, on connaît une chaussure de ski comportant une pièce en forme de gouttière articulée sur la coque, s'étendant très haut sur l'avant de la jambe et destinée à répartir les efforts sur la cheville et la jambe. Cette gouttière est attachée à la jambe par une sangle passant derrière la jambe en entourant également le haut d'un chausson de confort. A l'avant, la gouttière présente une fente d'élasticité recouvrant une languette de rembourrage. L'appui avant de la languette de rembourrage dans la partie supérieure de la gouttière n'est assuré que par la partie fendue de celle-ci.Document FR-A-2 498 431 discloses a ski boot comprising a piece in the form of a gutter articulated on the shell, extending very high over the front of the leg and intended to distribute the forces over the ankle and leg. This gutter is attached to the leg by a strap passing behind the leg, also surrounding the top of a comfort bootie. At the front, the gutter has a slot of elasticity covering a padding tab. The front support of the padding tab in the upper part of the gutter is only ensured by the split part of the latter.
La présente invention a pour but d'améliorer la tenue de la jambe au niveau de la partie dépassante du chausson, sans pour autant limiter le confort de l'appui avant du tibia contre le bord supérieur de la tige de la chaussure.The object of the present invention is to improve the holding of the leg at the level of the protruding part of the boot, without however limiting the comfort of the front support of the tibia against the upper edge of the shoe upper.
La chaussure de ski selon l'invention est caractérisée par le fait que le bord supérieur de la tige de la chaussure est muni de deux oreilles prolongeant la tige de chaque côté de la chaussure, ces oreilles étant munies chacune d'un passant pour le passage de ladite courroie de serrage vers l'avant du chausson.The ski boot according to the invention is characterized in that the upper edge of the upper of the boot is provided with two ears extending the upper on each side of the boot, these ears being each provided with a loop for the passage of said tightening strap towards the front of the liner.
La courroie étant attachée à la tige de la chaussure, le chausson ne peut plus se déplacer vers l'avant sans la tige, d'où une meilleure tenue de la jambe en appui avant. Par ailleurs, la souplesse de la courroie et la possibilité de régler la tension de cette courroie permet d'obtenir, sans restriction, le confort souhaité.The strap being attached to the upper of the shoe, the liner can no longer move forward without the upper, resulting in better hold of the leg in front support. Furthermore, the flexibility of the belt and the possibility of adjusting the tension of this belt makes it possible to obtain, without restriction, the desired comfort.
La courroie est de préférence fixée sous tension par accrochage de l'une de ses faces sur l'autre face par un système de type VELCRO (marque déposée).The belt is preferably fixed under tension by hooking one of its faces to the other face by a VELCRO type system (registered trademark).
Le dessin présenté, à titre d'exemple, a deux formes d'exécution de l'invention.The drawing presented, by way of example, has two embodiments of the invention.
La figure 1 est une vue partielle d'une chaussure selon la première forme d'exécution.Figure 1 is a partial view of a shoe according to the first embodiment.
La figure 2 est une vue de la partie modifiée selon la seconde forme d'exécution.Figure 2 is a view of the modified part according to the second embodiment.
La figure 3 est une vue partielle de la figure 1 avec une courroie de retenue.Figure 3 is a partial view of Figure 1 with a retaining strap.
La figure 1 représente partiellement une chaussure de ski en matière synthétique comprenant une partie inférieure ou empeigne munie de deux boucles de serrage 2 et 3 et une tige 4 munie de deux colliers 5 et 6 serrables au moyen de deux boucles 7 et 8 sur une languette 9 solidaire de la partie 1. A l'intérieur de la chaussure est disposé un chausson de confort 10 muni d'une languette 11. Ce chausson de confort, en matière souple et moelleuse, dépasse le bord supérieur de la tige 4 relativement rigide, pour empêcher que la jambe vienne s'appuyer directement sur le bord de cette tige, en particulier le bord intérieur 12, en créant des pressions localisées douloureuses. La partie supérieure du chausson est munie extérieurement d'un revêtement extérieur en plastique.FIG. 1 partially represents a ski boot made of synthetic material comprising a lower part or upper provided with two
La tige 4 de la chaussure est munie à l'arrière d'un spoiler 13 pour l'appui arrière de la jambe. La tige 4 est en outre munie de deux oreilles 14 et 15 prolongeant la tige vers le haut de chaque côté de celle-ci, légèrement en avant de l'axe de la tige 4. Ces oreilles 14 et 15 sont munies d'une fente verticale 16, respectivement 17, formant passant dans lesquelles passe une courroie 18 (fig. 3) dont une extrémité est munie d'un plot de retenue 19, retenant cette extrémité de la courroie 18 contre l'oreille 15 lorsqu'on tire sur la courroie. La courroie 18 est de préférence du type VELCTO (marque déposée), c'est-à-dire que l'une de ses faces est couverte de microcrochets venant s'accrocher dans les microboucles recouvrant l'autre face. La courroie est non élastique, par exemple en matière plastique telle du PVC souple. La courroie étant fixée à la tige, elle assure un appui non élastique de la jambe vers l'avant, et par conséquent une bonne tenue de la jambe.The upper 4 of the shoe is provided at the rear with a
Dans la seconde forme d'exécution représentée dans la figure 2, les fentes verticales 16 et 17 sont remplacées par des boucles métalliques 24 et 25 montées sur des charnières 20 et 21 fixées aux oreilles 14 et 15 par des rivets 22 et 23. Les boucles 24 et 25 étant en avant des oreilles 14 et 15, ces dernières seront de préférence situées un peu plus en arrière que dans la première forme d'exécution.In the second embodiment shown in Figure 2, the
