Definitions

  • This invention relates to a ski boot having a bootleg tiltable along the longitudinal direction of the boot shell.
  • Ski boots are known wherein the bootleg is pivoted to the boot shell about two opposite hinge points aligned along a transverse axis of the boot, whereby the bootleg can be tilted lengthwise of the boot shell.
  • the bootleg In normal skiing trim the bootleg is in all cases to take a predetermined position of forward inclination, and yet be allowed to swing farther forward from that position setting.
  • the bootleg When the boot is not used for skiing, but worn all the same by the skier, such as for normal walking, the bootleg should be allowed to tilt back toward a substantially vertical position. It is, in fact, this ability to swing to the vertical position that makes the ski boot usable in normal footwear fashion, allowing the leg muscles to relax as befits such situations of use of the ski boot other than for skiing.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a ski boot capable of satisfying, in use, the above indicated contrasting demands and at the same time it is simple and reliable.
  • a ski boot having a boot shell, and a bootleg pivoted to the boot shell such that it can be tilted lengthwise of the boot shell, and including an adjuster device for controlling the tilting movement of the bootleg relative to the boot shell, characterized in that said adjuster device comprises a stud mounted fixedly on either one of said boot shell and bootleg, and an adjustment member associated with the other of said boot shell and bootleg, said adjustment member being shiftable through a range of different settings and formed with a slot for engagement with the stud, whereby constraints on the relative movement of the bootleg and boot shell can be selectively imposed according to the adjustment member setting.
  • a ski boot generally designated as 10, which comprises a boot shell 11 and a bootleg 12 fitted over the shell 11.
  • the bootleg 12 is pivoted to the shell 11 about two opposite hinge points 13 which are aligned along a transverse axis to the boot 10; in this way, the bootleg 12 can be tilted lengthwise of the shell 11, or rather swung either toward the toe or the heel end of the boot 10.
  • a stud 14 mounted on the rearward portion of the shell 11 is a stud 14, preferably molded integral with the boot shell.
  • a circular opening 15 is formed in the bootleg 12 correspondingly with the stud which provides a socket whereinto a knob 16 is received rotatably in engagement with the stud 14.
  • the knob 16 has a cylindrical body 17 whose lateral surface 18 mates with the rim 19 of the opening 15.
  • a U-shaped slot 20 is formed in the body 17 which runs straight, radially out from the center to the periphery of the body 17; the stud 14 is received inside the slot 20.
  • the wings 21 are provided, on their respective surface facing the bootleg, with a respective dog 22 adapted to snap into corresponding recesses 23 formed in the juxtaposed bootleg surface at a spacing of 90 degrees from each another. It should be noted that the recesses 23 only concern the bootleg surface next to the shell, and do not extend through to the opposite surface, being thereby hidden from view when the boot is in its assembled state.
  • the body 17 of the knob 16 protrude outwards through the opening 15, and formed on its outward face, is a diametrically extending tongue 24.
  • the knob 16 and stud 14 enable the tilting movement of the bootleg 12 relative to the shell 11 to be controlled.
  • the bootleg 12 is allowed to swing relative to the shell 11 in a constrained fashion between a predetermined position of forward inclination (chain line) and a more forward tilted position (solid line) as may be imposed by a condition of maximum bend of the skier's leg.
  • This constrained oscillation is controlled by the mutual engagement of the stud 14 and the slot 20; the oscillation is allowed by the slot riding the stud; and the travel limits of the slot on the stud, as defined by the slot bottom abutting against the stud, at one end, and the rim 19 of the opening 15 abutting against that stud, at the other end, will define the aforesaid positions of forward inclination for the bootleg 12.
  • the knob 16 is moved between the above-described positions by simply turning it about the stud 14 axis, a feature made possible by that the engagement of the stud 14 with the slot 20 allows for rotation of the slot relative to the stud; for the knob to be turned, the stud should locate at the slot bottom with the knob centered.
  • a change in the knob setting from the foregoing first position to the second, and from the second position to the third, is brought about by turning the knob 16 through 90 degrees; upon the knob reaching one of the above positions, the dog 11 will snap into one of the recesses 23 correspondingly with the position reached and lock the knob in that position.
  • the ski boot 10 can reconcile the conflicting demands mentioned in the introductory part.
  • the setting shown in Figures 5, 6 would be used for normal skiing
  • the setting shown in Figures 7, 8 would be usedfor contest skiing
  • the setting of Figures 9, 10 would be used to relax the skier's leg muscles, e.g. while riding a mechanical ascent means or for normal walking with the boots on.
  • the dog 22 and recesses 23 afford accurate definition of the knob 16 settings.
  • the tongue 24 makes it easier to grasp the knob 16 for turning, and provides a visual indication of the knob setting.
  • the slot may be made to a different pattern from that shown, contingent on the swing angle sought for the bootleg.
  • knob may be replaced with any other adjustment member which can serve equivalent functions.
  • the stud could be mounted fixedly to the bootleg and the adjustment member associated with the boot shell.
