Definitions
- the present invention relates to an inner lining for a ski boot, having parts of relatively rigid compact synthetic material lined, inside, with a synthetic material of lesser hardness.
- the term “interior trim” means any part intended to garnish the bare shell, such as liner, tongue, anterior and posterior spoilers, edges, etc.
- This type of lining is commonly used in ski boots made of injected synthetic material.
- the compact synthetic material does not always have the flexibility necessary for a perfect adaptation of the slipper to the shape of the foot or of the ankle and to deform during flexion of the leg.
- the tongue has a relatively hard and rigid outer part and an inner lining made up of at least one elastic compressible layer.
- the known tongues do not, however, have a truly anatomical shape, but simply a rounded shape more or less matching the shape of the instep and the leg.
- the object of the present invention is to produce an interior lining, the compact plastic parts of which adapt automatically, to the greatest possible extent, to the shape of the wearer's foot or ankle and do little to prevent deformation. when bending the leg.
- the interior trim according to the invention is characterized in that at least one of the relatively rigid plastic parts has at least one cut of closed contour.
- the cut can be unique, that is to say, extend over both the instep and on the part of the tongue located above the instep, or in two parts, one located on the instep and the other on the part of the tongue located above the instep.
- the cut, respectively the cutouts ensures a good adaptation of the tongue to the morphology of the foot.
- the shape of the upper part of the cut takes into account that the lower front part of the leg is not symmetrical.
- the inner part of the leg consists essentially of the tibia, while the muscles occupy the outer part.
- the tongue of the boot according to the invention distributes the pressure more evenly, because the tongue is always in uniform contact with the surface of the tibia.
- the transverse rigidity of the tongue is reduced and the pressure and lateral friction, caused by the edges of the known tongues which tend to sink into the calf, particularly inside the leg, are eliminated.
- the part of the cut, respectively the cut of the tongue, located on the instep reduces the rigidity of the tongue at this location and allows the clean extensor muscles of the big toe to lift without encountering too much resistance.
- This part of the cut is preferably offset laterally towards the inside of the foot so that the middle of the cut is located on the proper extensor muscle of the big toe.
- Figure 1 shows a boot according to a first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a front view of the tongue of the bootie of FIG. 1.
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the tongue can be used in the boot of Figure 1 in place of the tongue shown.
- FIG. 4 is a view in longitudinal median section of the tongue shown in FIG. 3.
- Figure 5 shows the tongue of Figure 3 without its lining.
- Figure 6 shows the foam lining of this same tongue.
- FIG. 7 is a side view of the lining shown in FIG. 6.
- Figure 8 shows a third embodiment of the tongue.
- Figure 1 shows a boot of known shape, in the form of a boot having, at the front, a deep indentation 1 extending as far as the instep.
- This boot can be made of felt or synthetic material coated with a soft lining.
- a tongue 3 made of relatively hard and rigid synthetic material and thermoformed in the form of a horse saddle so as to approximately adapt to the shape of the instep.
- This tongue 3 is lined internally by a synthetic foam 4 which appears through two cutouts 5 and 6 of the tongue 3.
- the cutout 5 has a first part 5a extending transversely a little below the upper edge of the tongue 3, this part 5a being followed by a part 5b extending longitudinally on the left side of the tongue - or of the wearer, the booties shown being the booties of the right foot - that is to say on the inside of the leg, substantially parallel to the lateral edge of the tongue 3.
- the lower end of the part 5b is just above the instep.
- the cutout 6 is on the other hand oval in shape and extends over the instep, so that it extends substantially equally on either side of the proper extensor muscle of the big toe.
- the resistance to deformation of the foam 4 is increased by transverse grooves 7 to 12 obtained by hot crushing of the material 4.
- the tongue 3 is sewn at point 2 of the liner by its end 13. The tongue 3 closes the notch 1 when the shoe is closed.
- the part 5b of the cutout 5 allows the right part, in the drawing, of the tongue to better adapt to the tibia which is flush with the inside of the leg, by eliminating the localized compression zone. Due to an inadequacy of the curvature of the tongue to the shape of the tibia which has an edge followed by an approximately flat surface.
- the upper part 3a of the tongue 3 located above the part 5a of the cutout 5 forms a transverse strip which can deform differently from the rest of the tongue.
- this part 3a can flex, both forwards and downwards, so that the upper edge of the tongue 3 no longer exerts painful compression on the tibia.
- the part 3b of the tongue extending between the lateral edge and the part 5b of the cutout 5 is also in the form of a strip capable of deforming relatively easily.
- the L-shaped shape of the cutout 5 ensures good adaptation of the tongue 3 to tightening and bending while retaining a resistant part to receive the pressure of the tightening loops.
- This resistant part is essentially constituted by the zone 3c located inside the L.
- cutout 6 The effect of cutout 6 is twofold. In the absence of such a cut, the bending of the tongue 3 above the instep has the effect of reducing the transverse curvature of the tongue on the instep, which has the effect of compress the clean extensor muscle of the big toe. The presence of the cutout 6 significantly reduces this effect. On the other hand, the cutout 6 allows the proper extensor muscle of the big toe to lift up while meeting only the weak resistance of the foam 4.
- the tongue 3 'shown in FIGS. 1 to 7 differs from the tongue 3 only in the shape of the cutout.
- the tongue 3 ' has a single cutout 14 extending over the greater part of the length of the tongue.
- This cutout 14 also has an upper part 14a extending transversely and parallel to the upper edge of the tongue 3 'like the part 5a of the cutout 5, this part 14a being followed by a part 14b extending laterally and substantially parallel to the inner lateral edge of the tongue, like the part 14b, and connected to a part 14c of oval shape, like the cutout 6 of the first embodiment, extending over the instep, by a part having firstly an enlargement 14d corresponding to the flexion zone of the foot, followed by a narrowing 14e.
- This tongue 3 ' has better flexibility in bending than the tongue 3 of the first embodiment.
- FIGS 3 to 7 illustrate more fully the constitution of the tongue. This constitution is also valid for the tongue 3 of the first embodiment.
- the edge of the cut is sewn to the lining 4 of the tongue by a seam 15.
- the foam 4 is itself doubled by a thick non-woven, soft textile layer, 16, lined internally with a fabric 17. We find on the tongue 3 'the transverse crushing 7', 8 ', 9' etc. corresponding to transverse crushing 7, 8, 9 etc.
- the tongue 3 'and the foam 4 are shown separately in FIGS. 5 to 7.
- the shape and dimensions of the cutout, respectively of the cutouts shown, may of course differ slightly from the shapes and dimensions shown. The main thing is to respect the layout and orientation claimed.
- thermoformable materials instead of synthetic foam, it is possible to use other thermoformable materials to make the lining of the tongue. The only condition is that this material is substantially less hard than the material of the tongue.
- FIG. 8 illustrates another example of execution.
- the material of the tongue 3 is, for example, the same as in the previous embodiments.
- This tongue 3 has two cutouts 22 and 23 similar to the cutouts 5 and 6 of Figures 1 and 2, but of a slightly different shape.
- This tongue is lined with a thermoformable synthetic material 24 which is substantially less hard than the tongue.
- This material 24 is given the desired shape and thickness by thermoforming, then the part obtained is fixed to the tongue 3 by sewing or by high frequency welding.
- the material 24 By using, for the material 24, a material compatible with that of the tongue, for example of the same family, but less hard, the material 24 can be fixed to the tongue by overmolding or over-injection. Such a tongue is more resistant; its manufacturing cost is reduced; its aesthetic appearance is improved and it is possible to obtain tongues of different aspects.
- Cutouts could also be provided in the rear part 18 of the bootie, as well as in the upper edges 19, 20 and 21 projecting from the shell of the shoe and resting on sensitive parts of the ankle and the bottom of the calf.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet une garniture intérieure pour chaussure de ski, présentant des parties en matière synthétique compacte relativement rigide doublée, à l'intérieur, d'une matière synthétique de moindre dureté. Par garniture intérieure, on entend toute partie destinée à garnis la coque nue, telle que chausson, languette, spoilers antérieurs et postérieurs, bords, etc.The present invention relates to an inner lining for a ski boot, having parts of relatively rigid compact synthetic material lined, inside, with a synthetic material of lesser hardness. The term “interior trim” means any part intended to garnish the bare shell, such as liner, tongue, anterior and posterior spoilers, edges, etc.
Ce type de garniture est communément utilisé dans les chaussures de ski en matière synthétique injectée. Dans ces garnitures, en particulier les chaussons, la matière synthétique compacte ne présente pas toujours la flexibilité nécessaire à une parfaite adaptation du chausson à la forme du pied ou de la cheville et pour se déformer lors de la flexion de la jambe. C'est particulièrement le cas de la languette destinée à répartir la pression de serrage exercée par les boucles de la chaussure sur le cou-de-pied et sur la partie antérieure du bas de la jambe. A cet effet, la languette présente une partie extérieure relativement dure et rigide et une doublure intérieure constituée d'au moins d'une couche élastique compressible. Les languettes connues ne présentent toutefois pas une forme véritablement anatomique, mais simplement une forme arrondie épousant plus ou moins bien la forme du cou-de-pied et de la jambe. Pour la pratique du ski, la chaussure doit être bien serrée sur le pied et la pression de serrage n'est généralement pas repartie de façon uniforme sur le pied par la languette, mais il se crée au contraire des zones de compression localisées, précisément en raison de la mauvaise adaptation de la forme de la languette au cou-de-pied et à la jambe, ces zones de compression localisées étant désagréables et pouvant devenir douloureuses au bout d'un certain temps. Ces remarques s'appliquent également aux autres parties de la garniture constituées d'un plastique relativement dur.This type of lining is commonly used in ski boots made of injected synthetic material. In these linings, in particular the slippers, the compact synthetic material does not always have the flexibility necessary for a perfect adaptation of the slipper to the shape of the foot or of the ankle and to deform during flexion of the leg. This is particularly the case of the tongue intended to distribute the tightening pressure exerted by the buckles of the shoe on the instep and on the anterior part of the lower leg. To this end, the tongue has a relatively hard and rigid outer part and an inner lining made up of at least one elastic compressible layer. The known tongues do not, however, have a truly anatomical shape, but simply a rounded shape more or less matching the shape of the instep and the leg. For skiing, the boot must be tight on the foot and the clamping pressure is not generally distributed uniformly on the foot by the tongue, but on the contrary, localized compression zones are created, precisely in due to the poor adaptation of the shape of the tongue to the instep and the leg, these compression zones localized being unpleasant and can become painful after a certain time. These remarks also apply to the other parts of the packing made of relatively hard plastic.
Il serait certes possible d'adapter la forme de la languette et des autres parties concernées à la morphologie du pied, mais compte tenu des différences morphologiques entre les individus, l'adaptation devrait se faire de façon individuelle pour chaque individu, ce qui n'est pratiquement pas réalisable.It would certainly be possible to adapt the shape of the tongue and the other parts concerned to the morphology of the foot, but taking into account the morphological differences between individuals, adaptation should be done individually for each individual, which does not is practically not achievable.
En outre, en ce qui concerne la languette, lors de la flexion du pied vers l'avant, le muscle extenseur propre du gros orteil a tendance à se déplacer vers l'avant et vers le haut. Or, s'il est déjà comprimé par le serrage de la chaussure, il est dans l'impossibilité d'effectuer ce déplacement naturel. Cette remarque s'applique aussi à d'autres muscles et tendons tels que le tendon d'Achille, par exemple.Also, with regard to the tongue, when flexing the foot forward, the proper extensor muscle of the big toe tends to move forward and upward. However, if it is already compressed by the tightening of the shoe, it is impossible to carry out this natural displacement. This also applies to other muscles and tendons such as the Achilles tendon, for example.
Afin d'autoriser la flexion de la cheville tout en assurant une bonne tenue du pied, il a été proposé de scinder la languette en deux parties reliées par une bande flexible, l'une s'étendant sur le pied et l'autre sur la jambe, c'est-à-dire le tibia, mais chacune des parties est elle-même rigide et ne résout pas le problème des pressions localisées (US-A-4 534 122)In order to allow the ankle to flex while ensuring a good hold of the foot, it has been proposed to split the tongue into two parts connected by a flexible strip, one extending over the foot and the other over the leg, that is to say the tibia, but each part is itself rigid and does not solve the problem of localized pressures (US-A-4,534,122)
La présente invention a pour but de réaliser une garniture intérieure dont les parties en matière synthétique compactes s'adaptent automatiquement, dans une mesure aussi grande que possible, à la forme du pied ou de la cheville du porteur et s'opposent peu à une déformation lors de la flexion de la jambe.The object of the present invention is to produce an interior lining, the compact plastic parts of which adapt automatically, to the greatest possible extent, to the shape of the wearer's foot or ankle and do little to prevent deformation. when bending the leg.
La garniture intérieure selon l'invention est caractérisée par le fait qu'au moins l'une des parties en matière synthétique relativement rigide présente au moins une découpe de contour fermé.The interior trim according to the invention is characterized in that at least one of the relatively rigid plastic parts has at least one cut of closed contour.
Sur la languette du chausson, par exemple, la découpe peut être unique c'est-à-dire s'étendre à la fois sur le cou-de-pied et sur la partie de la languette située au-dessus du cou-de-pied, ou en deux parties, l'une située sur le cou-de-pied et l'autre sur la partie de la languette située au-dessus du cou-de-pied.On the tongue of the liner, for example, the cut can be unique, that is to say, extend over both the instep and on the part of the tongue located above the instep, or in two parts, one located on the instep and the other on the part of the tongue located above the instep.
La découpe, respectivement les découpes assure une bonne adaptation de la languette à la morphologie du pied. La forme de la partie supérieure de la découpe tient compte du fait que la partie inférieure antérieure de la jambe n'est pas symétrique. La partie intérieure de la jambe est constituée essentiellement par le tibia, alors que les muscles occupent la partie extérieure. La languette du chausson selon l'invention distribue la pression de façon plus homogène, car la languette est toujours en contact d'une façon uniforme avec la surface du tibia. La rigidité transversale de la languette est réduite et la pression et le frottement latéral, provoqués par les bords des languettes connues qui ont tendance à s'enfoncer dans le mollet, particulièrement à l'intérieur de la jambe, sont supprimés.The cut, respectively the cutouts ensures a good adaptation of the tongue to the morphology of the foot. The shape of the upper part of the cut takes into account that the lower front part of the leg is not symmetrical. The inner part of the leg consists essentially of the tibia, while the muscles occupy the outer part. The tongue of the boot according to the invention distributes the pressure more evenly, because the tongue is always in uniform contact with the surface of the tibia. The transverse rigidity of the tongue is reduced and the pressure and lateral friction, caused by the edges of the known tongues which tend to sink into the calf, particularly inside the leg, are eliminated.
La partie de la découpe, respectivement la découpe de la languette, située sur le cou-de-pied réduit la rigidité de la languette à cet endroit et permet aux muscles extenseurs propres du gros orteil de se soulever sans rencontrer une trop grande résistance. Cette partie de la découpe est de préférence déportée latéralement vers l'intérieur du pied de telle manière que le milieu de la découpe soit situé sur le muscle extenseur propre du gros orteil.The part of the cut, respectively the cut of the tongue, located on the instep reduces the rigidity of the tongue at this location and allows the clean extensor muscles of the big toe to lift without encountering too much resistance. This part of the cut is preferably offset laterally towards the inside of the foot so that the middle of the cut is located on the proper extensor muscle of the big toe.
Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, trois formes d'exécution de l'invention.The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, three embodiments of the invention.
La figure 1 représente un chausson selon une première forme d'exécution.Figure 1 shows a boot according to a first embodiment.
La figure 2 est une vue de face de la languette du chausson de la figure 1.FIG. 2 is a front view of the tongue of the bootie of FIG. 1.
La figure 3 est une vue en perspective d'une seconde forme d'exécution de la languette susceptible d'être utilisée dans le chausson de la figure 1 à la place de la languette représentée.Figure 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the tongue can be used in the boot of Figure 1 in place of the tongue shown.
La figure 4 est une vue en coupe médiane longitudinale de la languette représentée à la figure 3.FIG. 4 is a view in longitudinal median section of the tongue shown in FIG. 3.
La figure 5 représente la languette de la figure 3 sans sa doublure.Figure 5 shows the tongue of Figure 3 without its lining.
La figure 6 représente la doublure en mousse de cette même languette.Figure 6 shows the foam lining of this same tongue.
La figure 7 est une vue de profil de la doublure représentée à la figure 6.FIG. 7 is a side view of the lining shown in FIG. 6.
La figure 8 représente une troisième forme d'exécution de la languette.Figure 8 shows a third embodiment of the tongue.
La figure 1 représente un chausson de forme connue, en forme de botte présentant, à l'avant, une profonde échancrure 1 s'étendant jusque sur le cou-de-pied. Cette botte peut être en feutre ou en matière synthétique revêtue d'une doublure moelleuse. En un point 2 situé sur le cou-de-pied, à l'intérieur du chausson, est fixée une languette 3 en matière synthétique relativement dure et rigide et thermoformée en forme de selle de cheval de manière à s'adapter approximativement à la forme du cou-de-pied. Cette languette 3 est doublée intérieurement par une mousse synthétique 4 qui apparaît à travers deux découpes 5 et 6 de la languette 3. La découpe 5 présente une première partie 5a s'étendant transversalement un peu en dessous du bord supérieur de la languette 3, cette partie 5a étant suivie d'une partie 5b s'étendant longitudinalement sur le côté gauche de la languette - ou du porteur, le chausson représenté étant le chausson du pied droit - c'est-à-dire du côté intérieur de la jambe, sensiblement parallèlement au bord latéral de la languette 3. L'extrémité inférieure de la partie 5b est juste au-dessus du cou-de-pied. La découpe 6 est par contre de forme ovale et s'étend sur le cou-de-pied, de telle sorte qu'elle s'étend sensiblement également de part et d'autre du muscle extenseur propre du gros orteil. Dans les découpes 5 et 6, la résistance à la déformation de la mousse 4 est augmentée par des rainures transversales 7 à 12 obtenues par écrasement à chaud de la matière 4. La languette 3 est cousue au point 2 du chausson par son extrémité 13. La languette 3 vient fermer l'échancrure 1 lors de la fermeture de la chaussure.Figure 1 shows a boot of known shape, in the form of a boot having, at the front, a deep indentation 1 extending as far as the instep. This boot can be made of felt or synthetic material coated with a soft lining. At a
Lors du serrage de la chaussure, la partie 5b de la découpe 5 permet à la partie droite, sur le dessin, de la languette de mieux s'adapter au tibia affleurant à l'intérieur de la jambe, en supprimant la zone de compression localisée due à une inadaptation de la courbure de la languette à la forme du tibia qui présente une arête suivie d'une surface approximativement plane. La partie supérieure 3a de la languette 3 située au-dessus de la partie 5a de la découpe 5 forme une bande transversale pouvant se déformer de façon différente du reste de la languette. Lors de la flexion de la jambe, c'est-à-dire de l'appui du tibia sur la languette, cette partie 3a peut fléchir, aussi bien vers l'avant que vers le bas, de telle sorte que le bord supérieur de la languette 3 ne vient plus exercer de compression douloureuse sur le tibia. La partie 3b de la languette s'étendant entre le bord latéral et la partie 5b de la découpe 5 est également en forme de bande susceptible de se déformer relativement facilement. La forme en L de la découpe 5 permet d'assurer une bonne adaptation de la languette 3 au serrage et à la flexion tout en conservant une partie résistante pour recevoir la pression des boucles de serrage. Cette partie résistante est essentiellement constituée par la zone 3c située à l'intérieur du L. Une telle combinaison de caractéristiques de rigidité et de souplesse n'aurait pas pu être obtenue par une découpe longitudinale médiane ou par deux découpes parallèles à l'axe de la languette.When tightening the shoe, the
L'effet de la découpe 6 est double. En l'absence d'une telle découpe, la flexion de la languette 3 au-dessus du cou-de-pied a pour effet de réduire la courbure transversale de la languette sur le cou-de-pied, ce qui a pour effet de comprimer le muscle extenseur propre du gros orteil. La présence de la découpe 6 réduit sensiblement cet effet. D'autre part, la découpe 6 permet au muscle extenseur propre du gros orteil de se soulever en ne rencontrant que la faible résistance de la mousse 4.The effect of
La languette 3' représentée aux figure 1 à 7 ne diffère de la languette 3 que par la forme du découpage. La languette 3' présente une seule découpe 14 s'étendant sur la plus grande partie de la longueur de la languette. Cette découpe 14 présente également une partie supérieure 14a s'étendant transversalement et parallèlement au bord supérieur de la languette 3' comme la partie 5a de la découpe 5, cette partie 14a étant suivie d'une partie 14b s'étendant latéralement et sensiblement parallèlement au bord latéral intérieur de la languette, comme la partie 14b, et reliée à une partie 14c de forme ovale, comme la découpe 6 de la première forme d'exécution, s'étendant sur le cou-de-pied, par une partie présentant tout d'abord un élargissement 14d correspondant à la zone de flexion du pied, suivie d'un rétrécissement 14e. Cette languette 3' présente une meilleure souplesse à la flexion que la languette 3 de la première forme d'exécution.The tongue 3 'shown in FIGS. 1 to 7 differs from the
Les figures 3 à 7 illustrent de façon plus complète la constitution de la languette. Cette constitution est également valable pour la languette 3 de la première forme d'exécution. Le bord de la découpe est cousu à la doublure 4 de la languette par une couture 15. La mousse 4 est elle-même doublée par une épaisse couche textile non tissée, moelleuse, 16, doublée intérieurement d'un tissu 17. On retrouve sur la languette 3' les écrasements transversaux 7', 8', 9' etc. correspondants aux écrasements transversaux 7, 8, 9 etc.Figures 3 to 7 illustrate more fully the constitution of the tongue. This constitution is also valid for the
La languette 3' et la mousse 4 sont représentées séparément aux figures 5 à 7.The tongue 3 'and the
La forme et les dimensions de la découpe, respectivement des découpes représentées peuvent bien entendu différer légèrement des formes et des dimensions représentées. L'essentiel est de respecter la disposition et l'orientation revendiquées.The shape and dimensions of the cutout, respectively of the cutouts shown, may of course differ slightly from the shapes and dimensions shown. The main thing is to respect the layout and orientation claimed.
Au lieu d'une mousse synthétique, il est possible d'utiliser d'autres matières thermoformables pour réaliser la doublure de la languette. La seule condition est que cette matière soit sensiblement moins dure que la matière de la languette.Instead of synthetic foam, it is possible to use other thermoformable materials to make the lining of the tongue. The only condition is that this material is substantially less hard than the material of the tongue.
La figure 8 illustre un autre exemple d'exécution. Le matériau de la languette 3 est, par exemple, le même que dans les exécutions précédentes. Cette languette 3 présente deux découpes 22 et 23 analogues aux découpes 5 et 6 des figures 1 et 2, mais de forme un peu différente. Cette languette est doublée d'une matière synthétique thermoformable 24 sensiblement moins dure que la languette. On donne à cette matière 24 la forme et l'épaisseur désirées par thermoformage, puis on fixe la pièce obtenue à la languette 3 par couture ou par soudage à haute fréquence.FIG. 8 illustrates another example of execution. The material of the
En utilisant, pour la matière 24, un matériau compatible avec celui de la languette, par exemple de la même famille, mais moins dur, la matière 24 peut être fixée à la languette par surmoulage ou surinjection. Une telle languette est plus résistante ; son coût de fabrication est réduit; son aspect esthétique est amélioré et il est possible d'obtenir des languettes d'aspects différents.By using, for the
Des découpes pourraient également être prévues dans la partie postérieure 18 du chausson, ainsi que dans les bords supérieurs 19, 20 et 21 dépassant la coque de la chaussure et s'appuyant sur des parties sensibles de la cheville et du bas du mollet.Cutouts could also be provided in the
Dans les chaussures à entrée arrière, la partie arrière du chausson est remplacée par un spoiler postérieur et la languette par une spoiler antérieur. Ces spoilers peuvent être munis de découpes adéquates comme la languette 3.In rear entry shoes, the rear part of the boot is replaced by a rear spoiler and the tongue by a front spoiler. These spoilers can be fitted with suitable cutouts like the
