Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rear support adjustment device, particularly usable in ski boots.
  • Said bracket which has a fixed configuration, has a screw, at the base arranged outside the quarter, the activation of the screw causing the threaded stem thereof to compress a plate which is associated with the quarter in a rearward position.
  • This operation must necessarily be performed twice, once to find the correct inclination and once to eliminate this selection so as to be able to comfortably remove the foot from the boot.
  • Straps are associated at one side of the quarter and can be tensed by means of adapted levers which interact, by means of adapted teeth arranged longitudinally thereto, with the set of teeth defined on the wing which protrudes from the shell.
  • the tensing of the straps causes a variation in the inclination of the wing which protrudes from the shell.
  • 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 the optimum and rapid adjustment of the rear support for the skier's leg.
  • an important object is to provide a device wherein the degree of rear support can be preset in a rapid manner by means of simple operations which are easy for the skier.
  • Another important object is to provide a device which associates with the preceding characteristics that of allowing, in an equally rapid and easy manner, the optimum walking of the skier once skiing has ended.
  • Another important object is to provide a device wherein the skier can rapidly identify the degree of rear support achieved previously when deactivating it.
  • Another important object is to provide a device which allows to optimally select the degree of rear support of the skier's leg independently of the degree of securing of the shell or of the quarter.
  • Not least object is to provide a device which associates with the preceding characteristics that of being structurally simple, said device not substantially altering the usual aesthetic configuration of boots and being at the same time reliable and safe in use.
  • a rear support adjustment device particularly for ski boots composed of at least one quarter associated with a shell, characterized in that said at least one quarter has a rear recess which acts as seat for a spoiler which is pivoted thereto, the ends of a substantially U-shaped bracket being pivoted to said quarter, said bracket having means for temporary engagement with grip means defined on said spoiler.
  • the reference numeral 1 generally indicates a front-entry ski boot which comprises a shell 2 with which a quarter 3 is associated.
  • Adapted known closure devices such as levers 5 for tensing adapted tension elements, are arranged at the shell 2 and at the front region 4 of the quarter 3.
  • Said quarter 3 has, in the rear region 6, a recess 7 which affects said quarter starting from the upper perimetric edge 8 up to the vicinity of the lower perimetric edge 9.
  • a spoiler 10 can be arranged at the recess 7 and is pivoted, at a pivot 11, transversely to the quarter 3 in the rear region 6 which is adjacent to the lower perimetric edge 9 of said quarter 3.
  • the ends 14 of a substantially U-shaped bracket 15 are pivoted, by means of adapted studs or rivets 13, at the lateral ends 12 of the quarter 3 which are adjacent to the recess 7.
  • Said bracket has, at the base 16 for connection to the ends 14, means 17 for temporary engagement with grip means defined on the spoiler 3.
  • the temporary engagement means 17 can be constituted for example by similar solutions described in the above mentioned US patent no. 4,882,857, whereas the grip means defined on the spoiler 10 can be advantageously constituted by a plurality of teeth 18 which are defined transversely and protrude rearward with respect to said spoiler 10.
  • the protrusion of said teeth 18 from the spoiler 10 is advantageously such as to allow optimum interaction with the temporary engagement means 17 defined on the bracket 15 as its angular position varies.
  • the operation of the device is thus as follows: once the boot has been put on, the skier grips the base 16 of the bracket 15 and raises it until the temporary engagement means 17 interact with the required tooth 18, thus imparting the required inclination to the spoiler 10.
  • This adjustment can be performed after closing the quarter and the shell and thus after presetting the optimum degree of securing thereof according to the type of skiing.
  • the skier disengages the temporary engagement means 17 from the selected tooth 18, arranging the bracket 15 turned downward, with the base 16 adjacent to the lower perimetric edge 9 of the quarter 3: in this manner the spoiler 10 is free to oscillate with respect to the quarter 3, allowing the skier to walk optimally even with the boot completely closed.
  • the downward turning of the spoiler 10 facilitates the insertion of the foot inside the boot.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a device having been obtained which allows to optimally adjust the rear support for the skier's leg, said adjustment being easy and immediate.
  • the activation of the device is furthermore equally rapid both during the engagement of the bracket 15 with the spoiler 10 and during the disengagement thereof.
  • the device is furthermore completely separate from the means adapted to close the quarter 3 or the shell 2: thus, for example, it is possible to walk easily in an upright position while keeping the degree of securing of the quarter unchanged.
  • the spoiler 10 can naturally also be constituted by a wing which protrudes rearward with respect to the shell 2.
  • the ends 14 of the bracket 15 can be pivoted inside or outside the quarter 3.
