Definitions

  • This invention relates to a rear-entry ski boot including a bootleg hingedly connected to a boot shell in overlapping relationship with an instep portion of said boot shell in continuation thereof, a cutout formed rearwardly on said bootleg and said boot shell to define a rear opening for putting the boot on, which opening is removably closed by a flap in swivelling association with the boot shell.
  • Such boots have usually a fixed volume shell, that is a shell wherein the portion intended to accommodate the foot is made as a fully enclosed monolithic case.
  • the shell has the bootleg and rear flap hinged thereto.
  • the flap is connected hingedly to the shell by means of the same hinge pins provided for the bootleg, or alternatively, by the use of a pair of hinge pins set slightly rearward of the former but in all cases affixed to the shell.
  • a drawback of the former arrangement for attaching the flap to the shell is that the tilt-out movement in opening the flap is somewhat restricted by the so-called "heel" portion of the shell interfering with the bottom edge of the flap; in fact, this design only allows a partial rearward tilting of the flap when putting the boot on, which is of apparent hindrance to the introduction of the foot into the boot.
  • the problem that underlies this invention is to provide a rear-entry ski boot so structured as to permit tilting of the rear flap fully out when putting on the boots, but without interfering with the swivel movement of the bootleg on the shell.
  • ski boot of the type outlined above being characterized in that said flap is connected hingedly to said bootleg in different areas from the area where the bootleg is hinged to the shell.
  • the boot shell is of the variable volume, not fully enclosing type, and fastening means are provided for adjustably tightening portions of said shell to each other.
  • FIG. 1 Generally shown at 1 in Figure 1 is a ski boot embodying this invention.
  • the ski boot 1 comprises a shell 2 of the variable volume type, that is not all-enclosing at a back 3 due to two overlapping flaps 3a,b being provided which can be tightened over each other by operation of conventional fastening means 4 of the lever kind.
  • This construction enables the shell 2 to be brought to a tight fit, together with the inner shoe which will intervene between the shell and the foot with the ski boot in its assembled condition, by so changing the boot volume as to lock it on the skier's foot much more effectively than is provided by fixed volume boot shells.
  • the shell 2 extends upwardly into an instep 5 which is made deformable elastically by the provision of slits 6 and formed rearwardly with a cutout 7, as typifying rear-entry ski boots, indeed to allow the foot to enter the boot.
  • a raised molding 10 Formed between the bottom edge of the cutout 7 and a heel 9 of the boot, in the so-called heel area of the shell, is a raised molding 10 from the outside wall of the shell.
  • Two slots 11 are formed symmetrically in the instep portion 5 of the shell 2 whose function will be explained hereinafter.
  • a bootleg 15 is connected hingedly, as by means of two hinge pins 16, to opposed sides of the shell in a so-called malleolar area.
  • the bootleg 15 is wrapped around the instep portion 5 and open rearwards, at the cutout 7, to provide an additional cutout 18.
  • each side wall of said bootleg Formed in each side wall of said bootleg is a respective slot 20 arranged to be in registry with the slots 11 in the shell.
  • a rivet 21 fits through each pair of slots, 11 and 20, whereby the bootleg 15 is secured laterally of the instep 5 of the shell 2 with limited freedom of oscillation relatively to the latter.
  • Two bracket formations are provided at the base of the cutout 18 which have free ends 22a arranged to face each other a mutual distance apart.
  • a hinge pin 24 for a flap 25 Carried between the ends 22a is a hinge pin 24 for a flap 25 providing an eave to cover the opening defined by the cutouts 7, 18.
  • the two bracket formations 22 also act as travel stops for the rearward swivel movement of the bootleg 15 on the shell 2, with the molding 10 used as an abutment member therefor.
  • Two small flexible straps, both shown at 26, extend with free sections thereof across the cutout 18 and carry at their free ends conventional fastening lever means 28 provided with a ring 29 which is engaged in a corresponding rack 30 affixed frontally to the bootleg 15.
  • the straps 26 are either formed integrally with a side wall of the bootleg or otherwise attached to the same.
  • the flap 25 has an enlarged portion 31 at its bottom portion which is through-penetrated by a clearance hole 32 accommodating the hinge pin 24 in loose fit relationship; said flap 25 is terminated at the opposite end with a plate-like formation adapted to provide a rest (commonly referred to as "spoiler” in the specific art) for the skier's calf.
  • That flap 25 forms a rear closure for the boot 1 and can be swung between a closed position, where it will abut against the shell 2 and the bootleg 15, at the cutouts 7 and 18, and an open position where it will be tilted approximately 90° to the rear.
  • the flap 25 In the closed position, the flap 25 would be held tightly against the shell 2 and the bootleg 15 by the straps 26.
  • the fastening lever means 28 are first released from their respective racks 30 so as to have both straps 26 released; likewise, the lever fasteners 4 are released to allow the shell 2 to expand at the back 3 into its state of maximum volume.
  • the bootleg 15 will stay close against the shell 2 due to the rivets 21 provided, so that it does not hinder the operations for putting the ski boot on.
  • the shell is then tightened onto the foot by manipulation of the fastening means 4 and of the bootleg through its corresponding means 28.
  • the bootleg In use, the bootleg is allowed to swing about the hinge pins 16 together with the flap 25. This oscillatory movement will be limited by the amount of play provided by the slots 11, 20 and by the bracket formations 22 abutting on the molding 10.
  • a major advantage of this ski boot is that it facilitates the put-on operations through the ability to tilt the flap covering the rear opening fully to the rear; an additional advantage is that a variable volume shell can be used, which affords improved ski control by locking the foot more effectively inside the ski boot.
