Description

La présente invention concerne une raquette à neige et plus particulièrement un perfectionnement de la liaison de la chaussure qui en améliore les performances et le confort.The present invention relates to a snowshoe and more particularly to an improvement in the binding of the boot which improves performance and comfort.

Les raquettes à neige sont des engins connus depuis de très nombreuses années car utilisées depuis plusieurs siècles par les populations Scandinaves pour se déplacer sur la neige. Jusqu'à nos jours, les raquettes à neige étaient utilisées à des fins utilitaires ou militaires pour permettre aux populations et aux troupes alpines de se déplacer sur la neige pour leurs déplacements nécessités par la vie quotidienne. Actuellement, les raquettes à neige sont plutôt utilisées par des sportifs qui font des randonnées et des promenades, voire même des compétitions. Mais les sportifs, bien que pratiquant pour leur plaisir, sont de plus en plus exigeants pour le matériel qu'ils utilisent, et il est vrai que les produits actuellement vendus ne donnent pas entière satisfaction, et notamment lors de la progression sur neige tassée, dure ou glacée, ainsi qu'en parcours latéral sur une pente.Snowshoes have been known for many years because they have been used for centuries by the Scandinavian populations to travel on snow. Until today, snowshoes were used for utility or military purposes to allow the populations and the Alpine troops to move on snow for their displacements necessary for the daily life. Currently, snowshoes are rather used by sportsmen who go for hikes and walks, or even competitions. But the sportsmen, although practicing for their pleasure, are more and more demanding for the material which they use, and it is true that the products currently sold do not give complete satisfaction, and in particular during the progression on packed snow, hard or icy, as well as on a side course on a slope.

Ainsi, selon l'invention, la raquette à neige comprenant un tamis portant une fixation destinée à recevoir la chaussure de l'utilisateur, est caractérisée en ce que ladite fixation est reliée audit tamis de façon à pouvoir pivoter latéralement autour d'un axe longitudinal.Thus, according to the invention, the snowshoe comprising a sieve carrying a fixing intended to receive the shoe of the user, is characterized in that said fixing is connected to said sieve so as to be able to pivot laterally about a longitudinal axis .

Selon une des dispositions, l'axe longitudinal est disposé dans le plan de symétrie générale de la raquette, tandis que dans une autre disposition, il est en biais par rapport à celui-ci.According to one of the arrangements, the longitudinal axis is arranged in the general plane of symmetry of the racket, while in another arrangement, it is at an angle with respect thereto.

Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, la fixation est liée à un support articulé sur le tamis autour de l'axe longitudinal, et selon une disposition préférée, ledit support est un cadre support dont les deux parois latérales sont telles que leurs rebords inférieurs font saillie sous la surface inférieure de la raquette.According to an additional characteristic, the attachment is linked to a support articulated on the screen around the longitudinal axis, and according to a preferred arrangement, said support is a support frame whose two side walls are such that their lower edges project under the lower surface of the racket.

Selon une autre caractéristique, la fixation est disposée pivotante vers le haut par rapport au support autour d'un axe transversal, qui est situé au dessus dudit axe longitudinal.According to another characteristic, the fixing is arranged pivoting upwards relative to the support around a transverse axis, which is located above said longitudinal axis.

Par ailleurs, et selon un mode de réalisation préféré, l'axe transversal est disposé au-dessus de la surface supérieure de la raquette, tandis que l'axe longitudinal est disposé au-dessous de cette surface.Furthermore, and according to a preferred embodiment, the transverse axis is disposed above the upper surface of the racket, while the longitudinal axis is disposed below this surface.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention se dégageront de la description qui va suivre en regard des dessins annexés qui ne sont donnés qu'à titre d'exemples non limitatifs.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from the description which follows with reference to the appended drawings which are given only by way of nonlimiting examples.

La figure 5 est une vue en coupe selon V-V de la figure 2, la raquette étant en appui sur un plan de neige horizontal.Figure 5 is a sectional view along V-V of Figure 2, the racket being supported on a horizontal snow plane.

La figure 6 est une vue similaire à celle de la figure 5 montrant la raquette en appui sur un sol en dévers.Figure 6 is a view similar to that of Figure 5 showing the racket resting on a slope.

Les figures 7 et 8 sont des vues en perspective montrant des détails de réalisation de la fixation.Figures 7 and 8 are perspective views showing details of the attachment.

Les figures 9 et 10 illustrent deux autres modes de réalisation.Figures 9 and 10 illustrate two other embodiments.

La raquette désignée sous la référence générale (1) se présente sous la forme d'une plaque ajourée de plan de symétrie générale (P) fixée sous la chaussure et qui se compose d'un cadre principal (2), constitué d'une partie périphérique (3) délimitant une zone intérieure (4), comprenant un ensemble de parois internes supportant la fixation (5) destinée à retenir la chaussure (6) de l'utilisateur. Ledit cadre principal a une forme générale allongée se prolongeant à l'arrière par une queue (7) de largeur réduite, tandis que l'avant est relevé et de forme sensiblement pointue pour constituer la spatule avant (8).The racket designated under the general reference (1) is in the form of an openwork plate of general plane of symmetry (P) fixed under the shoe and which consists of a main frame (2), consisting of a part peripheral (3) delimiting an interior zone (4), comprising a set of internal walls supporting the binding (5) intended to retain the shoe (6) of the user. Said main frame has a generally elongated shape extending at the rear by a tail (7) of reduced width, while the front is raised and of substantially pointed shape to constitute the front spatula (8).

L'ensemble des parois internes et du cadre principal forme une surface inférieure générale d'appui (9) sur la neige permettant à l'utilisateur de ne pas trop s'enfoncer dans la neige et ce, grâce à la surface portante importante. Notons que la fixation (5) destinée à retenir la chaussure (6) est selon l'invention articulée par rapport au cadre (2) de la raquette proprement dite, selon deux axes, un premier axe, dit axe transversal (XX') et un deuxième axe, dit axe longitudinal (YY'). De façon avantageuse, ladite fixation portant la référence générale (5) est constituée par une plaque articulée (10) comprenant des moyens de retenue pour la chaussure, à savoir des moyens avant (11) et des moyens arrière (12). Ainsi, l'extrémité avant (60) de la chaussure est retenue par un étrier avant (110), tandis que son extrémité arrière (61) l'est, grâce à un étrier arrière pivotant (120) comprenant un levier (121) de retenue. La plaque (10) est avantageusement rigide et s'étend longitudinalement, comprenant une surface d'appui supérieure (13) pour supporter la semelle de la chaussure. Notons aussi que de façon préférée, la position de l'étrier arrière (120) est réglable grâce à une succession de trous d'accrochage latéraux (15). Par ailleurs, le réglage fin permettant une adaptation parfaite à la longueur de la chaussure, est assuré par deux écrous latéraux (16a, 16b) disposés sur les tirants de l'étrier arrière.All of the internal walls and the main frame form a general lower support surface (9) on the snow allowing the user not to sink too far into the snow, thanks to the large bearing surface. Note that the binding (5) for retaining the shoe (6) is according to the invention articulated with respect to the frame (2) of the racket itself, along two axes, a first axis, called the transverse axis (XX ') and a second axis, called the longitudinal axis (YY '). Advantageously, said binding bearing the general reference (5) is constituted by an articulated plate (10) comprising retaining means for the shoe, namely front means (11) and rear means (12). Thus, the front end (60) of the shoe is retained by a front stirrup (110), while its rear end (61) is, thanks to a pivoting rear stirrup (120) comprising a lever (121) of detention. The plate (10) is advantageously rigid and extends longitudinally, comprising an upper bearing surface (13) for supporting the sole of the shoe. Note also that, preferably, the position of the rear bracket (120) is adjustable thanks to a succession of lateral hooking holes (15). Furthermore, the fine adjustment allowing a perfect adaptation to the length of the shoe, is ensured by two lateral nuts (16a, 16b) arranged on the tie rods of the rear caliper.

Selon une disposition préférée, l'axe transversal (XX') est disposé au dessus de l'axe longitudinal (YY'), ledit axe transversal (XX') étant, en position de repos, perpendiculaire au plan de symétrie générale (P), tandis que ledit axe longitudinal (YY') est quant à lui situé dans ledit plan (P). Notons par ailleurs que l'axe transversal (XX') est aussi disposé légèrement au-dessus du plan général supérieur (90) du tamis (4), tandis que l'axe longitudinal (YY') est disposé légèrement en-dessous dudit plan (90). Ainsi, et comme on peut le voir plus particulièrement à la figure 3, la plaque (10) peut pivoter par rapport à la raquette proprement dite, verticalement selon R1 et R2 et latéralement selon R3 et R4.According to a preferred arrangement, the transverse axis (XX ') is disposed above the longitudinal axis (YY'), said transverse axis (XX ') being, in the rest position, perpendicular to the plane of general symmetry (P) , while said longitudinal axis (YY ') is in turn located in said plane (P). Note also that the transverse axis (XX ') is also disposed slightly above the upper general plane (90) of the screen (4), while the longitudinal axis (YY') is disposed slightly below said plane (90). Thus, and as can be seen more particularly in FIG. 3, the plate (10) can pivot relative to the racket itself, vertically along R1 and R2 and laterally along R3 and R4.

La partie centrale du tamis (4) comprend un trou central (17) s'étendant longitudinalement et dans lequel prend place un cadre support (18) pivotant autour de l'axe longitudinal (YY'). Le trou central (17) se prolongeant vers l'avant (AV) par un trou avant (170) permet le passage de l'avant de la plaque (10) lors de son pivotement, ainsi que de l'extrémité avant (60) de la chaussure. Ce support (18) a la forme générale d'un cadre rectangulaire limité périphériquement par deux parois verticales latérales (19, 20) et par deux parois verticales d'extrémité (21, 22). Ces deux dernières parois (21, 22) comprenant chacune un trou, respectivement un trou avant (23) et un trou arrière (24) dont les axes sont alignés et destinés chacun à recevoir un axe de pivotement (25, 26) lié chacun au tamis (2) pour réaliser ensemble l'axe longitudinal (YY'). Par ailleurs, l'extrémité avant dudit cadre support (18) comprend deux saillies latérales (27, 28) s'étendant vers le haut et étant percées d'un trou (270, 280), destiné à recevoir l'axe (29) de la plaque (10) pour réaliser ensemble l'axe transversal (XX') de pivotement vers le haut ou vers le bas selon R1, R2. Notons qu'avantageusement, l'axe (29) est disposé en retrait vers l'arrière d'une distance (D) de l'avant (30) de la chaussure pour que l'axe de pivotement (XX') soit disposé au niveau des métatarses et permettre ainsi un meilleur appui. Par ailleurs, et selon une caractéristique complémentaire, les parois latérales (19) et (20) ont une hauteur (H) suffisamment importante pour que les rebords inférieurs latéraux (190, 200) soient en saillie par rapport au plan général inférieur d'appui (9) du tamis (4), comme cela apparaît plus particulièrement aux figures 2 ,4 et 5. Par ailleurs, notons que les rebords inférieurs latéraux (190, 200) sont aussi en saillie sous le plan (P1) défini par le rebord inférieur (30) de la paroi (3) du cadre principal.The central part of the screen (4) comprises a central hole (17) extending longitudinally and in which takes place a support frame (18) pivoting about the longitudinal axis (YY '). The central hole (17) extending forward (AV) by a front hole (170) allows the passage of the front of the plate (10) during its pivoting, as well as of the front end (60) of the shoe. This support (18) has the general shape of a rectangular frame bounded peripherally by two vertical side walls (19, 20) and by two vertical end walls (21, 22). These last two walls (21, 22) each comprising a hole, respectively a front hole (23) and a rear hole (24) whose axes are aligned and each intended to receive a pivot axis (25, 26) each linked to the sieve (2) to make the longitudinal axis (YY ') together. Furthermore, the front end of said support frame (18) comprises two lateral projections (27, 28) extending upwards and being pierced with a hole (270, 280), intended to receive the axis (29) of the plate (10) to realize together the transverse axis (XX ') of pivoting up or down according to R1, R2. Advantageously, the axis (29) is set back behind a distance (D) from the front (30) of the shoe so that the pivot axis (XX ') is disposed at metatarsal level and thus allow better support. Furthermore, and according to an additional characteristic, the side walls (19) and (20) have a height (H) large enough so that the lateral lower edges (190, 200) are projecting relative to the lower general support plane. (9) of the sieve (4), as appears more particularly in FIGS. 2, 4 and 5. Furthermore, note that the lateral lower edges (190, 200) are also projecting under the plane (P1) defined by the edge lower (30) of the wall (3) of the main frame.

Il va de soi que l'on ne sortirait pas du cadre de l'invention si l'axe longitudinal (YY') était disposé en biais par rapport au plan (P) longitudinal de symétrie générale de la raquette, comme cela est représenté à titre d'exemple, à la figure 9.It goes without saying that it would not go beyond the scope of the invention if the longitudinal axis (YY ') was disposed at an angle relative to the longitudinal plane (P) of general symmetry of the racket, as shown in as an example, in Figure 9.

Bien entendu, il se pourrait que la fixation de la chaussure soit différente de celle décrite, et par ailleurs, elle ne pourrait être associée à la raquette que pour pouvoir basculer latéralement, comme cela est illustré de façon schématique à la figure 10.Of course, it could be that the binding of the shoe is different from that described, and moreover, it could not be associated with the racket only to be able to tilt laterally, as shown schematically in Figure 10.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemples, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques ainsi que leurs combinaisons.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown by way of examples, but it also includes all the technical equivalents and their combinations.
