Description

La présente invention se rapporte aux chaussures de ski alpin du type à entrée par l'arrière, comportant une coque rigide dont un bas de coque est surmonté d'une tige au moins partiellement articulée sur ce dernier et constituée elle-même d'une partie postérieure ou capot arrière rabattable par rapport à une partie antérieure ou capot avant pour se refermer sur le bas de jambe du skieur, par l'intermédiaire d'un ensemble de fermetures.The present invention relates to alpine ski boots of the rear entry type, comprising a rigid shell of which a shell bottom is surmounted by an at least partially articulated rod on the latter and itself made up of a part rear or rear cover which can be folded down with respect to an anterior part or front cover to close on the lower leg of the skier, by means of a set of closures.

Celles-ci sont constituées, d'une part de manière connue par le brevet français n° 2 620 311, par un système de serrage à lien souple assujetissant ledit capot arrière en position de rapprochement contre le capot avant par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de guidage du lien, qui est constitué d'un évidement obtenu sur le capot arrière de la tige, orienté dans le sens de passage du lien et coiffé d'un couvercle amovible correspondant, pourvu de moyens d'accrochage démontables coopérant avec la paroi du capot arrière dans sa zone supérieure postérieure.These are formed, on the one hand in a manner known by French Patent No. 2,620,311, by a flexible link tightening system securing said rear cover in the position of approximation against the front cover by means of a link guide device, which consists of a recess obtained on the rear cover of the rod, oriented in the direction of passage of the link and capped with a corresponding removable cover, provided with removable attachment means cooperating with the wall of the rear cover in its upper rear area.

Un tel système présente le double avantage de maintenir le lien souple, d'une part à proximité des moyens d'accouplement du levier tendeur sur le capot avant lorsque le capot arrière est rabattu sur ce dernier et, d'autre part, sur le capot arrière quelle que soit la position de celui-ci et en particulier, lorsqu'il est désaccouplé du capot avant, et d'intégrer le lien souple et ses moyens de guidage dans le volume du capot arrière sans présenter d'aspérités, tout en garantissant le coulissement dudit lien et son remplacement éventuel grâce à des dispositions le rendant amovible.Such a system has the double advantage of maintaining the flexible link, on the one hand near the coupling means of the tensioning lever on the front cover when the rear cover is folded over the latter and, on the other hand, on the cover. rear whatever the position thereof and in particular, when it is uncoupled from the front cover, and to integrate the flexible link and its guide means in the volume of the rear cover without having any roughness, while guaranteeing the sliding of said link and its possible replacement thanks to provisions making it removable.

D'autre part, une autre fermeture supplémentaire connue, consiste un une sangle ajustable de maintien en fermeture de l'extrémité du haut de la tige, comportant des moyens de retenue sur ledit capot arrière.On the other hand, another known additional closure, consists of an adjustable strap for keeping the end of the top of the rod closed, comprising means for retaining said rear cover.

Une telle sangle évite principalement la flexion de la partie haute du capot avant de la chaussure et procure le maintien en contact étroit du bas de jambe du skieur, afin de lui éviter la sensation de liberté procurée par les évasements supérieurs des capots avant et arrière.Such a strap mainly prevents bending of the upper part of the front cover of the boot and provides the skier's lower leg with close contact, in order to avoid the feeling of freedom provided by the upper flares of the front and rear covers.

Cette sangle prend naissance ou est solidarisée par fixation sur le capot arrière, constituant un élément dorsal de rigidification de la tige, et vient entourer en serrage le capot avant pour se reboucler sur elle-même à son extrémité libre par l'intermédiaire d'une boucle solidarisée dudit capot arrière avec ou sans moyen auto-agrippable.This strap originates or is secured by fixing to the rear cover, constituting a dorsal element for stiffening the rod, and comes to tightly surround the front cover to loop back on itself at its free end by means of a integral loop of said rear cover with or without self-gripping means.

Les moyens de retenue de la sangle sur le capot arrière, sont constitués par une première paire de rivets pinçant une bride, rapportée à l'une des extrémités de ladite sangle, contre la partie interne d'une aile latérale du capot arrière à sa partie supérieure. Une autre bride fixée de manière identique par deux autres rivets est disposée sur l'autre aile latérale et est porteuse de la boucle.The means for retaining the strap on the rear cover, consist of a first pair of rivets pinching a flange, attached to one end of said strap, against the internal part of a side wing of the rear cover in its part superior. Another flange fixed identically by two other rivets is disposed on the other side wing and carries the buckle.

Une telle fixation de la sangle présente bon nombre d'inconvénients, en ce sens qu'elle nécessite une opération spécifique de montage sur le capot, distincte de celle du système de serrage à lien souple situé à un niveau inférieur.Such a fastening of the strap has a number of drawbacks, in that it requires a specific mounting operation on the cover, distinct from that of the flexible link tightening system located at a lower level.

De plus, une telle technique de fixation de la sangle rend son remplacement difficile, voire impossible, hors atelier : en effet, la dépose et la repose des rivets nécessitent le démontage du capot et le rivetage est en soi une opération délicate, impliquant un outillage approprié.In addition, such a strap fixing technique makes its replacement difficult, even impossible, outside the workshop: in fact, removing and installing the rivets requires dismantling the cover and riveting is in itself a delicate operation, involving tooling. appropriate.

Or, la sangle est d'une texture fragile comparé au reste de la chaussure, par exemple la coque, et c'est un élément consommable, de par sa fragilité et le nombre de manoeuvres qu'on lui fait subir à chaque chaussage ou déchaussage. Il faut également considérer qu'elle est autant exposée aux agents extérieurs tels que la neige, la glace, etc... que la coque elle-même pour une résistance bien inférieure.However, the strap is of a fragile texture compared to the rest of the shoe, for example the shell, and it is a consumable element, by its fragility and the number of maneuvers that it is subjected to each putting on or taking off. . It should also be considered that it is as exposed to external agents such as snow, ice, etc ... as the hull itself for a much lower resistance.

Cela conduit à penser qu'il faut rendre la sangle facilement interchangeable pour l'utilisateur, sans nécessiter l'intervention d'un spécialiste ou l'utilisation d'outillage, en réduisant au strict minimum le temps d'intervention.This leads us to think that the strap must be made easily interchangeable for the user, without requiring the intervention of a specialist or the use of tools, reducing the intervention time to the strict minimum.

Le but de la présente invention est d'atteindre ce résultat en remédiant à tous les inconvénients précités.The object of the present invention is to achieve this result by remedying all the aforementioned drawbacks.

A cet effet, elle concerne une chaussure du type précité, comportant un ensemble de fermetures, à savoir, un système de serrage à lien souple et une sangle ajustable de maintien de l'extrémité du haut de la tige, caractérisée en ce que les moyens de retenue de la sangle sur le capot arrière sont disposés sur un prolongement vers le haut du couvercle recouvrant le dispositif de guidage du lien pour constituer un couvercle unique des moyens de guidage ou de retenue arrière de l'ensemble des fermetures.To this end, it relates to a shoe of the aforementioned type, comprising a set of closures, namely, a tightening system with flexible link and an adjustable strap for holding the end of the top of the upper, characterized in that the means retaining strap on the rear cover are arranged on an upward extension of the cover covering the link guide device to form a single cover guide means or rear retaining all the closures.

On comprend aisément par là que les moyens de fixation de la sangle ayant été transférés sur un prolongement d'un couvercle coopérant déjà avec le dispositif de guidage du lien, on a supprimé une opération de montage complexe en ce qui concerne la sangle.It is easily understood by this that the means for fixing the strap having been transferred to an extension of a cover already cooperating with the link guide device, a complex mounting operation has been eliminated with regard to the strap.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le prolongement comporte à sa partie supérieure un évidement interne transversal définissant un passant avec la paroi du capot arrière, sur laquelle prend appui l'extrémité du couvercle unique, pour constituer les moyens de retenue de la sangle.According to another characteristic of the invention, the extension comprises at its upper part a transverse internal recess defining a pass with the wall of the rear cover, on which the end of the single cover bears, to constitute the means for retaining the strap .

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'évidement transversal formant passant comporte des moyens d'immobilisation en translation de la sangle après positionnement.According to another characteristic of the invention, the transverse recess forming a loop comprises means for immobilizing the strap in translation after positioning.

L'invention sera du reste mieux comprise en se reportant à la description qui suit, faite en regard des dessins annexés, montrant à titre d'exemple, un mode de réalisation de cette dernière :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une chaussure de ski, pourvue d'un couvercle unique des moyens de retenue arrière de l'ensemble des fermetures selon l'invention.
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective éclatée des éléments constituant les moyens de retenue arrière de l'ensemble des fermetures selon la figure 1.
  • la figure 3 est une vue du haut de tige de la chaussure selon la figure 1, après serrage des fermetures.
The invention will moreover be better understood by referring to the description which follows, made with reference to the appended drawings, showing by way of example, an embodiment of the latter:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a ski boot, provided with a single cover of the rear retaining means of all the closures according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the elements constituting the rear retaining means of all the closures according to FIG. 1.
  • Figure 3 is a view of the upper of the shoe upper according to Figure 1, after tightening the closures.

Conformément à l'invention, la chaussure de ski représentée en figure 1 présente une tige 1 constituée d'une partie antérieure 2, ou capot avant, et d'une partie postérieure 3, ou capot arrière et un bas de coque 4 sur lequel la tige 1 est reliée par l'intermédiaire de rivets 5. Dans cet exemple de construction, le capot arrière 3 est monté articulé sur des extensions latérales inférieures 6 du capot avant au moyen d'un axe transversal 7. Le système de serrage 8 et de fermeture de la tige 1 de la chaussure sur le bas de jambe du skieur comporte, d'une manière connue en soi, un levier-tendeur 11 qui assujettit en tension un lien souple 9 tel qu'une boucle à câble, laquelle est solidarisée du capot avant 2 par ses deux extrémités, tandis que sa partie intermédiaire contourne la capot arrière 3. L'une des extrémités de la boucle (non représentée) est montée sur un pot d'ancrage (non représenté) du capot avant 2, tandis que l'autre extrémité 13 de cette boucle est reliée au levier-tendeur 11 qui coopère avec les crans d'une crémaillère 14 fixée sur ledit capot avant.According to the invention, the ski boot shown in Figure 1 has a rod 1 consisting of a front part 2, or front cover, and a rear part 3, or rear cover and a shell bottom 4 on which the rod 1 is connected by means of rivets 5. In this example of construction, the rear cover 3 is mounted articulated on lower lateral extensions 6 of the front cover by means of a transverse axis 7. The clamping system 8 and closure of the upper 1 of the boot on the lower leg of the skier comprises, in a manner known per se, a tensioning lever 11 which subjects in tension a flexible link 9 such as a cable loop, which is secured to the front cover 2 by its two ends, while its intermediate part bypasses the rear cover 3. One end of the loop (not shown) is mounted on an anchoring pot (not shown) of the cover front 2, while the other end 13 of this loop is connected to the tensioning lever 11 which cooperates with the notches of a rack 14 fixed on said front cover.

Un dispositif de guidage 15 du câble 9 formant la boucle est associé et intégré au capot arrière 3 dans la zone correspondant à celle des passages du câble 9 dans sa position active, telle que visible en figure 3 ; dans cette position, le câble est sous tension par l'intermédiaire du levier-tendeur 11 en prise sur la crémaillère 14 et sa partie intermédiaire, qui entoure le capot arrière 3, provoque le basculement et le maintien de ce dernier contre le capot avant 2. Le dispositif de guidage 15 représenté aux figures 1 à 3, comporte un évidement 16 obtenu sur le capot arrière 3 et un couvercle amovible 17 qui s'adapte sur ledit évidement de manière complémentaire. L'évidement 16 étant orienté transversalement à l'axe de la tige présente deux canaux de guidage 18 délimités, chacun, dans leur sens transversal, par la paroi du capot 3 qui constitue des épaulements 19 et par une saillie centrale 20, chaque canal ainsi délimité donnant le passage à un brin de câble 9 ; par ailleurs, deux ouvertures 21 sont réalisées dans la saillie centrale 20, traversent la paroi du capot 3 et coopèrent avec des moyens d'accrochage 22' du couvercle 17 sur ce dernier. Le couvercle 17 est pourvu de deux encoches 28 complémentaires aux canaux de guidage 18 et de deux tenons 22 constituant une partie des moyens d'accrochage 22' et dont l'espacement et les dimensions sont correspondants aux ouvertures 21 ; l'extrémité respective des tenons 22 débouche du côté intérieur du capot 3 et comporte des cannelures verticales 23, destinées à recevoir un cavalier 24 qui s'emboîte dans celles-ci, réalisant ainsi la retenue en position desdits tenons sur le capot. Ce cavalier 24 est escamotable grâce à une encoche de manoeuvre 25. Par ailleurs, des bossages latéraux 26 réalisés sur le capot arrière 3 constituent les butées d'appui du couvercle 17 sur ce dernier.A device 15 for guiding the cable 9 forming the loop is associated and integrated into the rear cover 3 in the zone corresponding to that of the passages of the cable 9 in its active position, as visible in FIG. 3; in this position, the cable is under tension by means of the tensioning lever 11 engaged on the rack 14 and its intermediate part, which surrounds the rear cover 3, causes the latter to tilt and hold against the front cover 2 The guide device 15 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 comprises a recess 16 obtained on the rear cover 3 and a removable cover 17 which fits on said recess in a complementary manner. The recess 16 being oriented transversely to the axis of the rod has two guide channels 18 delimited, each in their transverse direction, by the wall of the cover 3 which constitutes shoulders 19 and by a central projection 20, each channel thus delimited giving passage to a strand of cable 9; moreover, two openings 21 are made in the central projection 20, pass through the wall of the cover 3 and cooperate with means of attachment 22 ′ of the cover 17 on the latter. The cover 17 is provided with two notches 28 complementary to the guide channels 18 and two pins 22 constituting a part of the attachment means 22 'and whose spacing and dimensions correspond to the openings 21; the respective end of the pins 22 opens on the inside of the cover 3 and has vertical grooves 23, intended to receive a jumper 24 which fits into them, thus making the retention in position of said pins on the cover. This rider 24 is retractable thanks to an operating notch 25. Furthermore, lateral bosses 26 produced on the rear cover 3 constitute the abutments for supporting the cover 17 on the latter.

La chaussure comporte également une sangle ajustable 30 de maintien en fermeture de l'extrémité 19 de la tige 1, comportant des moyens de retenue sur ledit capot arrière 3.The shoe also includes an adjustable strap 30 for keeping the end 19 of the upper 1 closed, comprising retaining means on said rear cover 3.

Selon l'invention, les moyens de retenue de la sangle 30 sur le capot arrière 3 sont disposés sur un prolongement 17a dirigé vers le haut du couvercle 17 recouvrant le dispositif de guidage du lien 9 pour constituer un couvercle unique 31, des moyens de guidage ou de retenue arrière de l'ensemble des fermetures.According to the invention, the means for retaining the strap 30 on the rear cover 3 are arranged on an extension 17a directed upwards of the cover 17 covering the link guide device 9 to form a single cover 31, guide means or rear retaining of all closures.

Les moyens de retenue de la sangle 30 sont constitués par un passant 32, formé d'une part, par un évidement interne transversal 33 et, d'autre part, par la partie supérieure 3a du capot arrière 3 sur laquelle prend appui l'extrémité 31a du couvercle unique 31.The strap retaining means 30 are constituted by a pass-through 32, formed on the one hand, by a transverse internal recess 33 and, on the other hand, by the upper part 3a of the rear cover 3 on which the end bears. 31a of the single cover 31.

Par ailleurs, le couvercle unique 31 comporte dans sa zone d'appui d'extrémité 31a, des moyens d'accrochage supérieurs démontables, coopérant avec la paroi dudit capot arrière 3.Furthermore, the single cover 31 comprises in its end support zone 31a, removable upper hooking means, cooperating with the wall of said rear cover 3.

Ces moyens sont constitués par deux crochets 37 dirigés vers le haut et dont le plan vertical intérieur est à une distance du fond de l'évidement 33, au moins égale à l'épaisseur de la paroi du capot arrière 3. En effet, ces crochets 37 sont destinés à être engagés, dans un mouvement de bas en haut de façon légèrement inclinée, dans des lumières d'emboîtement correspondantes 38 du capot arrière 3 et à y être retenus ; après un mouvement de basculement du couvercle 31 vers le capot 3, en prenant appui sur la paroi interne de ce dernier, dans une zone limitrophe des lumières 38.These means are constituted by two hooks 37 directed upwards and whose internal vertical plane is at a distance from the bottom of the recess 33, at least equal to the thickness of the wall of the rear cover 3. Indeed, these hooks 37 are intended to be engaged, in a movement from bottom to top in a slightly inclined manner, in corresponding nesting slots 38 of the rear cover 3 and to be retained therein; after a tilting movement of the cover 31 towards the cover 3, bearing on the internal wall of the latter, in a zone bordering on the openings 38.

Le basculement précité du couvercle 31 provoque le plaquage de la partie 17 du couvercle unique 31 contre le capot 3, d'où l'introduction des tenons 22 dans les ouvertures correspondantes 21 du système de serrage 8 du lien souple 9. Il suffit alors d'engager le cavalier 24 dans les cannelures 23, de l'autre côté de la paroi du capot 3, pour immobiliser et assurer la fixation définitive du couvercle unique 31.The aforementioned tilting of the cover 31 causes the portion 17 of the single cover 31 to be pressed against the cover 3, hence the introduction of the pins 22 into the corresponding openings 21 of the tightening system 8 of the flexible link 9. It then suffices engaging the rider 24 in the grooves 23, on the other side of the wall of the cover 3, to immobilize and ensure the final fixing of the single cover 31.

Avantageusement, le couvercle unique 31 est obtenu simultanément avec les crochets supérieurs 37, le pion 34 et les tenons inférieurs 22, au cours d'une même opération de moulage de matière plastique.Advantageously, the single cover 31 is obtained simultaneously with the upper hooks 37, the pin 34 and the lower pins 22, during the same plastic molding operation.

Bien entendu, le pion 34 pourra être également réalisé sur le capot arrière 3. Dans ce cas, le logement 36 sera réalisé, à l'inverse sur la paroi interne du couvercle 31.Of course, the pin 34 can also be produced on the rear cover 3. In this case, the housing 36 will be produced, conversely on the internal wall of the cover 31.

Le profil extérieur du couvercle unique 31 est ajusté sensiblement à celui du capot arrière 3 dont il en assure la continuité.The outer profile of the single cover 31 is adjusted substantially to that of the rear cover 3 which it ensures continuity.
