Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a front and/or rear support adjustment device, particularly for ski boots.
  • this solution does not solve the problem of the adaptability of the boot for example to the particular morphological configurations of the athlete's calf, and can thus be uncomfortable or painful in use.
  • US patent, No. 4,203,235 discloses a boot provided with a rear supporting element for the calf which is made of two mutually articulated parts between which a band, provided with internal transverse wedges, is removably inserted.
  • the aim of the present invention is therefore to eliminate the disadvantages described above in known types by providing a device which allows to achieve, for the skier, an optimum support for the calf or for the tibia.
  • an important object is to provide a device wherein the skier can achieve the optimum adaptation of the calf and/or tibia in a rapid and easy manner.
  • Another important object is to provide a device which allows to customize the degree of comfort of the boot according to the specific requirements.
  • Still another object is to provide a device in which it is possible to achieve a wide range of adjustments which can be activated by the skier in a rapid and simple manner.
  • Another object is to provide a device which associates with the preceding characteristics that of being structurally simple, of being easy to industrialize and of having low manufacturing costs.
  • Not least object is to provide a device which associates with the preceding characteristics that of being reliable and safe in use.
  • a support adjustment device particularly for ski boots composed of at least one quarter associated with a shell, characterized in that it comprises by at least one slider which can move axially with respect to said at least one quarter and has at least one inclined plane which interacts with at least one supporting element, for the calf and/or tibia, which is associated with said at least one quarter.
  • the reference numeral 1 indicates a ski boot constituted by at least one quarter 3 associated with a shell 2; the quarter may be monolithic or composite in order to allow the rear entry of the foot.
  • a supporting element 5 for the calf and/or tibia of the skier is preferably laterally articulated to the upper perimetric edge 4 of the quarter 3.
  • Said supporting element can thus be arranged in front and/or behind the quarter 3.
  • the supporting element 5 externally embraces the quarter 3 and protrudes above the perimetric edge 4 thereof.
  • a recess 6 may be provided at the perimetric edge 4 of the quarter 3 in the rear region thereof in order to achieve a considerable forward inclination of the supporting element 5.
  • the device for adjusting the front and/or rear support of the skier's leg is furthermore constituted by at least one slider 7 which can move axially and selectively with respect to the quarter 3.
  • the slider 7 has in fact a polygonal configuration which has, in a transverse cross-section, the shape of a right-angle trapezoid with the acute angle directed toward the perimetric edge 4 of the quarter 3 and the inclined plane 8 interposed between the internal surface 9 of the supporting element 5 and the rear surface 10 of the quarter 3.
  • the longer side 11 of the slider 7 can therefore slide at an adapted seat 12, axially defined at the back of the quarter 3, and at least one projection 13 protrudes downward from said side and therefore toward the seat 12, and can be selectively arranged at one or more adapted holes 14 defined on said seat 13.
  • the operation of the device is therefore as follows: by acting on the slider 7, the skier can move the inclined plane 8 and therefore modify its interaction with the supporting element 5, forcing said element into a more or less steep inclination.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a front and/or rear support adjustment device for ski boots having been obtained which allows the skier to rapidly and easily achieve optimum support both for the calf, or optionally, for the tibia, the device being structurally very simple and therefore easy to industrialize.
  • the use of the slider allows to customize the degree of comfort of the boot according to the specific requirements.
  • Structural simplicity furthermore entails very low manufacturing costs.
