Description

La présente invention concerne une chaussure pour sport de glisse tel que patin du type à roues en ligne obtenue à partir d'une semelle externe, destinée à être rendue solidaire de façon amovible ou non de la platine supérieure d'un châssis sur lequel sont disposées les roues constituant l'organe de glisse et à partir de laquelle semelle s'étend une tige recouvrant le pied et se prolongeant en direction de la cheville d'un patineur.The present invention relates to a shoe for sliding sports such as a skate of the in-line wheel type obtained from an external sole, intended to be made detachably or not removably secured to the upper plate of a chassis on which are disposed. the wheels constituting the sliding member and from which the sole extends a rod covering the foot and extending towards the ankle of a skater.

Ce type de patin est destiné à l'entraînement des patineurs sur glace hors patinoire, mais également à tous sportifs désireux d'entretenir ou de perfectionner sur un sol dur goudronné, cimenté, etc. les techniques utilisées dans des sports de glisse tels que le ski de piste, le ski de fond, le patin à glace, etc.This type of skate is intended for the training of skaters on ice outside the ice rink, but also for all athletes wishing to maintain or improve on hard paved, cemented ground, etc. techniques used in board sports such as downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, ice skating, etc.

C'est ainsi que la pratique de ce sport comprend une phase motrice ou propulsive en faisant diverger le patin vers l'extérieur et en prenant un appui latéral sur les roues ainsi inclinées, à la manière d'une prise de carre, puis une phase de glisse s'effectuant en repositionnant les roues perpendiculairement par rapport au sol.Thus the practice of this sport includes a driving or propulsive phase by making the skate diverge outwards and taking lateral support on the wheels thus inclined, in the manner of an edge grip, then a phase sliding by repositioning the wheels perpendicularly to the ground.

Une chaussure de ce type est connue par le brevet US N° 5 171 033. Celui-ci décrit une chaussure présentant la particularité d'être réalisée à partir d'une coque rigide dont une zone limitrophe à la semelle comporte une pluralité d'ouvertures de ventilation débouchant dans le volume interne de la coque. Un chausson est disposé librement dans cette coque afin que les mouvements du pied provoquent une ventilation interne par coopération entre une action de pompage fournie par le mouvement du chausson et lesdites ouvertures de la coque.A shoe of this type is known from US Patent No. 5,171,033. This describes a shoe having the particularity of being made from a rigid shell of which an area bordering the sole has a plurality of openings ventilation opening into the internal volume of the hull. A liner is freely placed in this shell so that the movements of the foot cause internal ventilation by cooperation between a pumping action provided by the movement of the liner and said openings in the shell.

Si un tel concept est susceptible de favoriser l'aération du pied, en revanche il conserve à la chaussure toute sa rigidité, car la coque, même si elle reçoit un chausson souple, constitue une structure enveloppante ferme et peu confortable du pied. Par ailleurs, un mouvement du pied à l'intérieur de la coque pendant la pratique du sport n'est pas souhaitable pour des raisons de contrôle du patin, mais également pour des raisons de confort, tout mouvement entre le pied et la coque pouvant engendrer des frottements et donc la formation d'ampoules.If such a concept is likely to favor the ventilation of the foot, on the other hand it keeps all the rigidity in the shoe, because the shell, even if it receives a flexible liner, constitutes a firm and not very comfortable enveloping structure of the foot. In addition, a movement of the foot inside the shell during sport is not desirable for reasons of skate control, but also for reasons of comfort, any movement between the foot and the shell may cause friction and therefore the formation of blisters.

Or, les différents mouvements du pied du patineur pour effectuer les diverses phases de patinage précitées, avec efficacité mais aussi un certain confort, ont conduit à la recherche d'une structure de chaussure souple et légère assurant par ailleurs une bonne tenue du pied et un confort d'utilisation.However, the different movements of the skater's foot to perform the various aforementioned skating phases, with efficiency but also a certain comfort, have led to the search for a flexible and light shoe structure which also ensures good foot support and a comfort in use.

Cet objectif a été atteint par la présente invention qui concerne à cet effet, une chaussure de patin du type à roues en ligne obtenue à partir d'une semelle externe, destinée à être rendue solidaire de la platine supérieure d'un châssis sur lequel sont disposées les roues et à partir de laquelle semelle s'étend une tige recouvrant le pied et se prolongeant en direction de la cheville d'un patineur,
   caractérisée en ce que la tige se compose d'une première partie réalisée en un matériau relativement rigide issu de la semelle pour former une coque basse pourvue à sa partie supérieure d'une ouverture longitudinale s'étendant depuis une zone relevée formant un contrefort arrière jusqu'à proximité d'un bout d'extrémité opposé et d'une seconde partie constituant une claque, réalisée en un matériau relativement souple rapportée et fixée sur le pourtour de l'ouverture longitudinale de la coque basse pour venir en recouvrement d'un avant-pied et contribuer à réaliser en association avec ladite coque basse, la tige de la chaussure. En effet, une telle construction de tige réalise à la fois les objectifs de tenue du pied par la coque basse et de confort et légèreté par la partie de tige souple.
This object has been achieved by the present invention which for this purpose relates to a skate shoe of the in-line wheel type obtained from an outer sole, intended to be made integral with the upper plate of a chassis on which are arranged the wheels and from which sole extends a rod covering the foot and extending towards the ankle of a skater,
characterized in that the upper consists of a first part made of a relatively rigid material from the sole to form a low shell provided at its upper part with a longitudinal opening extending from a raised area forming a rear buttress up to '' near an opposite end end and a second part constituting a slap, made of a relatively flexible material attached and fixed on the periphery of the longitudinal opening of the low shell to come to cover a front -foot and contribute to achieve in association with said low shell, the upper of the shoe. Indeed, such a rod construction achieves both the objectives of holding the foot by the low shell and comfort and lightness by the flexible rod part.

La présente invention concerne également les caractéristiques qui ressortiront au cours de la description qui va suivre, et qui devront être considérées isolément ou selon toutes leurs combinaisons techniques possibles.The present invention also relates to the characteristics which will emerge during the description which follows, and which should be considered in isolation or according to all their possible technical combinations.

Le patin à roues en ligne 1 désigné dans son ensemble et représenté sur la figure 1 comprend une chaussure 2 constituée d'une semelle externe 3 destinée à être rendue solidaire de la platine supérieure 4 d'un châssis 5 sur lequel sont disposées les roues 6, semelle 3 à partir de laquelle s'étend une tige 7 recouvrant l'ensemble du pied et se prolongeant en direction de la cheville du patineur.The inline skate 1 designated as a whole and shown in Figure 1 comprises a shoe 2 consisting of an outer sole 3 intended to be made integral with the upper plate 4 of a chassis 5 on which the wheels 6 are arranged , sole 3 from which extends a rod 7 covering the entire foot and extending in the direction of the skater's ankle.

La semelle 3 de la chaussure 2 est rendue solidaire du châssis 5 formant la platine supérieure horizontale 4 sur laquelle est fixée ladite semelle 3 par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation, en l'occurrence des vis 8 traversant la platine 4 pour se visser dans les bords latéraux de la semelle 3. Elle peut également être fixée par des rivets ou d'autres moyens de fixation non permanents.The sole 3 of the shoe 2 is made integral with the chassis 5 forming the horizontal upper plate 4 on which said sole 3 is fixed by means of fixing means, in this case screws 8 passing through the plate 4 to be screwed into the lateral edges of the sole 3. It can also be fixed by rivets or other non-permanent fixing means.

Le châssis 5 comporte également une partie inférieure perpendiculaire à la platine 4 selon son axe longitudinal et par exemple constituée par deux ailes latérales verticales 10 parallèles entre elles et disposées de part et d'autre de l'axe longitudinal.The chassis 5 also includes a lower part perpendicular to the plate 4 along its longitudinal axis and for example constituted by two vertical lateral wings 10 parallel to each other and arranged on either side of the longitudinal axis.

Les ailes latérales 10 se prolongent respectivement à leur partie supérieure par un retour perpendiculaire 11, chacun d'eux étant dirigé vers l'extérieur et constituant un plan définissant la platine horizontale 4.The lateral wings 10 extend respectively at their upper part by a perpendicular return 11, each of them being directed towards the outside and constituting a plane defining the horizontal plate 4.

De cette manière les ailes latérales verticales 10 définissent globalement avec la semelle 3 de la chaussure 2, un U renversé entre les ailes duquel sont disposées une pluralité de roues 6, par exemple au nombre de quatre, par l'intermédiaire des axes d'articulation transversaux 12 solidaires du châssis 4 pour constituer un train roulant.In this way the vertical lateral wings 10 define generally with the sole 3 of the shoe 2, an inverted U between the wings of which are arranged a plurality of wheels 6, for example four in number, by means of the articulation axes. transverse 12 integral with the chassis 4 to form a running gear.

Des ajoures 13 ont pour but essentiel d'alléger la structure du châssis 7 décrit ci-dessus.Openwork 13 has the essential purpose of lightening the structure of the chassis 7 described above.

Selon l'invention, d'une manière générale la tige 7 se compose d'une première partie 14 réalisée en un matériau relativement rigide issue de la semelle 3 pour former une coque basse pourvue à sa partie supérieure d'une ouverture longitudinale 15 s'étendant depuis une zone relevée 16 formant un contrefort arrière jusqu'à proximité d'un bout d'extrémité opposé 17 et d'une seconde partie 18 constituant une claque réalisée en un matériau relativement souple rapportée et fixée sur le pourtour de l'ouverture longitudinale 15 de la coque basse 14 pour venir en recouvrement d'un avant-pied et contribuer à réaliser en association avec ladite coque basse 14, la tige 7 de la chaussure 2.According to the invention, in general the rod 7 consists of a first part 14 made of a relatively rigid material from the sole 3 to form a low shell provided at its upper part with a longitudinal opening 15 s' extending from a raised area 16 forming a rear buttress as close to an opposite end end 17 and a second part 18 constituting a slap made of a relatively flexible material attached and fixed on the periphery of the longitudinal opening 15 of the low shell 14 to cover a forefoot and contribute to producing, in association with said low shell 14, the upper 7 of the shoe 2.

En fait, la claque 18 est obtenue à partir d'une pièce d'un matériau relativement souple constitué par un tissu de façon à procurer à la fois confort et tenue de pied.In fact, the slap 18 is obtained from a piece of a relatively flexible material constituted by a fabric so as to provide both comfort and foot support.

A titre d'exemple le tissu constituant le matériau souple dans lequel est obtenue la claque 18 est un tissu à grosses malles formant un filet.By way of example, the fabric constituting the flexible material in which the slab 18 is obtained is a fabric with large trunks forming a net.

Par contre, la coque basse 14 est réalisée dans un matériau plastique rigide pour une tenue de pied optimum.On the other hand, the low shell 14 is made of a rigid plastic material for optimum foot support.

Par ailleurs, la zone centrale de la claque souple 18 comporte une fente longitudinale 19 délimitant deux rabats transversaux 20 pourvus de moyens de serrage 21 destinés à agir après introduction du pied d'un patineur.Furthermore, the central zone of the flexible slap 18 comprises a longitudinal slot 19 delimiting two transverse flaps 20 provided with clamping means 21 intended to act after introduction of the foot of a skater.

Selon le présent exemple les moyens de serrage 21 sont constitués par des lacets disposés de manière traditionnelle, mais pourront être également constitués pour tout autre moyen comme des crochets, des systèmes auto agrippant, etc.According to the present example, the tightening means 21 are constituted by laces arranged in the traditional way, but could also be constituted for any other means such as hooks, self-gripping systems, etc.

Selon l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur la figure 2, la claque 18 est obtenue à partir d'une pièce d'un matériau relativement souple dans laquelle ont été pratiquées des encoches latérales 22 partant de son bord périphérique inférieur 18a et dirigées vers son axe longitudinal dans un sens sensiblement perpendiculaire à celui-ci, afin d'obtenir un assouplissement et un allégement de la tige 7, tout en conservant la tenue de pied nécessaire et en fournissant également une certaine aération du pied, à la manière d'une sandalette, dont des languettes latérales 23 issues d'une zone centrale 24 et délimitant lesdites encoches 22 coopèrent en fixation par leurs extrémités libres 25 avec un bord périphérique 14a de l'ouverture longitudinale 15 de la coque basse 14.According to the embodiment shown in Figure 2, the slap 18 is obtained from a piece of a relatively flexible material in which have been made side notches 22 starting from its lower peripheral edge 18 a and directed towards its longitudinal axis in a direction substantially perpendicular thereto, in order to obtain a softening and a lightening of the rod 7, while retaining the necessary foot support and also providing a certain ventilation of the foot, in the manner of a sandal, whose lateral tabs 23 from a central zone 24 and demarcating said notches 22 cooperate fastener 25 at their free ends with a peripheral edge 14a of the longitudinal opening 15 of the lower shell 14.

Des moyens de raccordement 26 sont disposés entre le bord périphérique inférieur 18a de la claque 18 et le bord périphérique supérieur 14a de la coque basse 14.Connection means 26 are arranged between the lower peripheral edge 18 a of the vamp 18 and the upper peripheral edge 14a of the lower shell 14.

Ces moyens 26 peuvent être constitués par une couture périphérique réunissant le bord inférieur 18a de ladite claque 18 et le bord supérieur 14a de ladite coque basse 14, ou par d'autres moyens de fixation tel que rivets, colle,...etc.These means 26 may be constituted by a peripheral seam joining the lower edge 18 a of said slap 18 and the upper edge 14 a of said lower shell 14, or by other fixing means such as rivets, glue, etc. .

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la tige 7 est une tige basse ne s'étendant pas en hauteur au delà du contrefort arrière 16, et comportant une articulation 27 disposée à proximité des extrémités supérieures 16a des parois latérales du contrefort arrière 16 de la coque basse 14 et destinée à recevoir un collier 28 de serrage d'un bas de jambe, ledit collier 28 s'étendant vers le haut à partir de son articulation 27, au-delà de l'extrémité supérieure 16a de la tige 7.According to another characteristic of the invention, the rod 7 is a low rod not extending in height beyond the rear buttress 16, and comprising an articulation 27 disposed near the upper ends 16 has side walls of the rear buttress 16 of the lower shell 14 for receiving a clamp 28 for clamping a lower leg, said collar 28 extending upwards from its articulation 27, beyond the upper end 16 a of the rod 7.

Ce collier 28 est obtenu à partir d'une matière plastique semi-rigide et permet une tenue latérale ou maintien en direction transversale de la tige tout en conservant la liberté de mouvement de flexion de l'articulation pied/cheville.This collar 28 is obtained from a semi-rigid plastic material and allows lateral holding or holding in transverse direction of the rod while retaining the freedom of flexion movement of the foot / ankle joint.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la tige 7 constituée par la coque basse 14, la claque 18 ou le collier 28 comporte au moins un élément de confort interne.According to another characteristic of the invention, the rod 7 constituted by the lower shell 14, the slap 18 or the collar 28 comprises at least one element of internal comfort.

Selon l'exemple de la figure 6, l'élément de confort interne est constitué par un chausson monobloc 29 glissé de manière amovible à l'intérieur de la tige 7, ledit chausson 29 étant constitué d'une première partie basse et arrière 30 correspondant sensiblement à la coque basse 14 et se prolongeant vers le haut pour constituer la zone arrière 31 du collier 28 et d'une seconde partie avant ou languette 32 solidaire de manière souple de la première partie 30,31 et correspondant sensiblement à la claque 18.According to the example of FIG. 6, the internal comfort element is constituted by a one-piece liner 29 removably slid inside the upper 7, said liner 29 consisting of a first lower and rear part 30 corresponding substantially at the bottom shell 14 and extending upward to constitute the rear zone 31 of the collar 28 and of a second front part or tongue 32 flexibly secured to the first part 30, 31 and corresponding substantially to the slap 18.

Ce chausson ainsi constitué est par exemple réalisé en mousse de polyuréthane et le fait d'être amovible lui permettra de manière connue, d'être retiré de la chaussure pour être séché ou lavé.This boot thus formed is for example made of polyurethane foam and the fact of being removable will allow it, in known manner, to be removed from the shoe to be dried or washed.

Conformément au mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 7, l'élément de confort interne est constitué en deux parties distinctes 32 et 33 dont l'une 32 est un chausson disposé fixement à l'intérieur de la tige basse 7 constituée par la coque basse 14 et la claque 18 et dont l'autre 33 est un rembourrage du collier articulé 28 qui constitue la partie haute de la tige 7 et auquel il est rendu solidaire.In accordance with the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the internal comfort element is made up of two distinct parts 32 and 33, one of which 32 is a liner fixedly disposed inside the low upper 7 formed by the low shell 14 and the slap 18 and the other 33 of which is a padding for the articulated collar 28 which constitutes the upper part of the rod 7 and to which it is made integral.

Dans ce cas et selon une autre caractéristique, le chausson 32 comprend sur sa partie correspondant sensiblement à la claque 18 de la tige 7, une zone élastique 34 apte à favoriser l'introduction du pied et permettre une ventilation de celui-ci grâce à des ajourages 35 qui y sont pratiqués.In this case and according to another characteristic, the liner 32 comprises on its part corresponding substantially to the slap 18 of the upper 7, an elastic zone 34 capable of promoting the introduction of the foot and allowing ventilation thereof by means of openings 35 which are practiced there.

Enfin, selon une conception plus particulièrement adaptée à la chaussure selon la figure 2, l'élément de confort représenté sur la figure 3 est constitué par trois parties 36, 37 et 38 dont la première 36, correspondant au volume interne de la coque basse 14, est disposée librement dans celle-ci et constitue en fait une semelle interne en forme de coque ; dont la seconde 37 correspondant à la claque 18 et épousant son contour, est un élément de rembourrage qui lui est solidaire; et dont la troisième 38 correspondant au collier articulé 28 constituant la partie haute de la tige 7 est également un élément de rembourrage qui lui est solidaire.Finally, according to a design more particularly adapted to the shoe according to FIG. 2, the comfort element shown in FIG. 3 consists of three parts 36, 37 and 38, the first 36 of which, corresponding to the internal volume of the low shell 14 , is freely disposed therein and in fact constitutes an insole in the form of a shell; whose second 37 corresponding to slap 18 and matching its outline, is a padding element which is integral with it; and whose third 38 corresponding to the articulated collar 28 constituting the upper part of the rod 7 is also a padding element which is integral with it.

On remarquera que dans ce cas précis la seconde partie 37 de l'élément de confort effectuant le rembourrage de la claque 18 comporte des échancrures 39 correspondantes aux échancrures 22 de ladite claque 18.It will be noted that in this specific case the second part 37 of the comfort element performing the padding of the slap 18 comprises notches 39 corresponding to the notches 22 of said slap 18.

Bien entendu, les éléments de confort représentés sur les figures 6 et 7 précédemment décrits trouvent également leur adaptation dans la chaussure telle que visible sur la figure 2.Of course, the comfort elements shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 previously described also find their adaptation in the shoe as visible in FIG. 2.

On peut également imaginer, qu'il y ait ou non présence d'un élément de confort au droit desdites échancrures 22 de la claque 18, de disposer derrière celles-ci des éléments d'étanchéité, un tissu hydrophobe par exemple.One can also imagine, whether or not there is a comfort element at the right of said notches 22 of the slap 18, to have sealing elements behind them, a hydrophobic fabric for example.

La chaussure 2A telle que représentée sur la figure 4 diffère essentiellement de la précédente en ce que la coque basse 14A est réalisée par moulage d'un matériau plastique rigide, au niveau du bord supérieur périphérique 14Aa de laquelle ont été pratiquées des échancrures 22A partant dudit bord et dirigées de manière sensiblement perpendiculaire à celui-ci vers la semelle 3 afin d'obtenir un assouplissement et un allégement de la tige 7A, des languettes latérales 23A délimitées par lesdites encoches 22A coopérant en fixation par leur extrémités libres 40 avec un bord périphérique inférieur 18Aa de la claque 18A.The shoe 2A as shown in Figure 4 differs primarily from the previous in that the low shell 14A is molded from a rigid plastics material, at the upper peripheral edge 14A which has were performed starting notches 22A said edge and directed substantially perpendicular thereto towards the sole 3 in order to obtain a softening and a lightening of the rod 7A, lateral tabs 23A delimited by said notches 22A cooperating in fixing by their free ends 40 with a lower peripheral edge 18A has slap 18A.

La chaussure 2B représentée sur la figure 5 diffère essentiellement des précédentes en ce que la claque 18B est obtenue en un tissu à grosses mailles procurant à la tige 7B la souplesse recherchée, sans avoir à pratiquer d'échancrures comme dans les cas précédents. Dans ce cas, les bords périphériques respectivement inférieur et supérieur de la claque 18B et de la coque basse 14B sont raccordés par une couture périphérique 41 continue.The shoe 2B shown in FIG. 5 differs essentially from the previous ones in that the slap 18B is obtained in a fabric with large meshes providing the rod 7B with the desired flexibility, without having to practice notches as in the previous cases. In this case, the respectively lower and upper peripheral edges of the flap 18B and of the lower shell 14B are connected by a continuous peripheral seam 41.

Selon cette variante, la claque 18B comporte dans une zone supérieure longitudinale et centrale située de part et d'autre des rabats transversaux, des pièces de renfort 42 relativement souples mais réalisées dans un matériau différent plus résistant tel que du cuir, et destinées à recevoir les moyens de serrage 21.According to this variant, the slap 18B comprises, in a longitudinal and central upper zone situated on either side of the transverse flaps, reinforcement pieces 42 which are relatively flexible but made of a different more resistant material such as leather, and intended to receive the clamping means 21.
