Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of sliding sports, and more specifically to that of snowboarding. It aims more particularly at improving shoes allowing the practice of this sport.
  • the rigid shoes approaching the shoes intended for downhill skiing and mainly consisting of a shell rigid and a sole cooperating with a binding, consisting of a front stirrup and an articulated heel, either formed by a system with retractable lugs allowing automatic fitting.
  • This type of rigid shoe is relatively uncomfortable for walking.
  • the problem which the invention therefore proposes to solve is that of compatibility of surf boots with the plurality and variety of existing fixings on the market.
  • the invention therefore relates to a surf shoe of the known type comprising a rod associated with a sole, in which the sole comprises at the level median of the cooperation members with a fixing located on the surfboard.
  • This shoe is characterized in that the sole has at the median level, a housing in which is removably disposed an adaptation piece intended to receive under its underside the members for cooperation with the binding.
  • the invention consists in providing under the sole of the shoe a clearance inside which can be inserted an intermediate shim whose lower profile allows either the adaptation of different bases of cooperation with fixation, that is, direct cooperation with fixation.
  • the shoe can be made compatible with a large number of fixings.
  • the housing opens laterally on both sides of the sole.
  • the sides front and rear of the adapter piece are convex, i.e. curved forward and backward respectively of the shoe. So by these engaging shapes, the adaptation piece can receive cooperation devices with the attachment of large size.
  • the front and rear sides of the adapter piece are inscribed in the same cylindrical or conical surface, so as to allow rotation of the adapter piece in the housing. In this way, the user can adjust the angular position of the cooperation members with the fixing relative to the longitudinal axis of the shoe, and thus modify the orientation of its feet on surfing without intervention on the bindings.
  • the housing has a diameter of between one hundred five millimeters and one hundred and twenty millimeters, and a depth of between fifteen millimeters and twenty millimeters, and preferably equal to eighteen millimeters.
  • the part on the underside of the recessed portions intended for to welcome, at least in part, the cooperation bodies with the fixings.
  • these fixing members are totally or partially embedded in the adaptation shims, which allows on the one hand, to obtain a hooking more effective and on the other hand, to reduce the total size of the shoe.
  • the sole has a plurality of sets of holes allowing the joining of the cooperation members, through the sets of holes corresponding drilled through the adapter piece.
  • the cooperation members and therefore the part adapters are secured to a rigid element disposed inside the shoe, above the sole.
  • the cooperation bodies with the fixing consist of a generally rectangular stud projecting laterally on each side of the sole.
  • the active parts of cooperation bodies consist of a pair of lateral extensions of the sole.
  • these bodies for cooperation with the fixing consist of a set of two offset oriented axes substantially along the longitudinal axis of the shoe, and connected by a plate openwork embedded in the adaptation piece.
  • the cooperation bodies with the fixing are constituted by two lateral recesses dug in the faces side of the adapter.
  • the lateral recesses are produced by inserts made of a material of hardness greater than the rest of the adapter piece.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of a shoe according to the invention.
  • FIGS 2, 3, 4 and 5 are summary perspective views of parts adaptation according to three variant embodiments.
  • Figure 6 is a sectional view of Figure 5 according to arrows VI-VI '.
  • Figure 7 is a bottom view of a bare sole.
  • Figure 8 is a bottom view of a sole fitted with the cooperation.
  • Figure 9 is a longitudinal section of a sole receiving the part adaptation and cooperation bodies with fixation.
  • the invention relates to a surf shoe (1), of the type known mainly comprising a flexible rod (2) and a sole (3), typically made of injected plastic.
  • One of the aims of the invention is to allow adaptation on the same shoe of various types of bindings. This goal is achieved by using a coin adapter inserted inside a housing (6) disposed at the level of the roof sole of the shoe.
  • this housing (6) has a flat upper face (7) and is bordered by two vertical sides front (8) and rear (9) respectively. These sections (8, 9) are curved so as to give the housing (6) a convex shape with a maximum surface area.
  • the invention also covers the variants in which the upper face (7) is not flat but follows a shape allowing cooperation or interpenetration of the adaptation piece with the sole.
  • the housing (6) opens onto the two sides of the sole (3) by two openings (10, 11).
  • This accommodation (6) therefore receives according to the invention an adaptation piece (20) forming a shim intended to receive the organs (30) for cooperation with the fixing proper.
  • this adaptation piece (20) has a front side (21) of curvature complementary to the vertical section (8) of the housing and therefore curved in the direction of the point (5) of the sole (3).
  • the rear side (22) of this adaptation piece (20) is itself arched towards the heel (4) of the sole.
  • the two lateral sides (23 and 24) have profiles allowing them to be flush with the openings (10, 11) of the housing (6).
  • the adaptation piece (20) is inscribed by its sides front (21) and rear (22) in a cylinder, which allows to adjust the position angle of the cooperation members with the fixing relative to the axis longitudinal of the foot, and therefore that of the foot on the surf, without having to act on the fixing itself.
  • the sides (21) and (22) of the part adapter (20) have an identical curvature and their centers of curvature are confused.
  • the diameter allowing a number to be adapted maximum type of fixing while remaining compatible with the constraints of stiffness and manufacturing of the shoe, must be between 105 and 120 millimeters and the associated depth of the housing must be between 15 and 20 millimeters, and preferably in the vicinity of 18 millimeters.
  • the adaptation piece (20) fits its front (21) and rear (22) sides in a cone whose virtual vertex is located under the shoe.
  • the housing (6) has undercuts which oppose the tearing of the adaptation piece (20) and ensure thus good behavior of the characteristic elements.
  • the shim (20) has a transverse recess (25) whose transverse sides (27, 28) are parallel between them and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shoe.
  • the side edges of this housing (25) opens laterally into the openings (10, 11) of the housing (6).
  • the upper face (26) of this housing (25) is intended to receive the cooperation bodies that constitute the stud (30).
  • the end portions (33, 34) of the stud (30) are intended to overflow from the housing (25) of the adaptation piece (20), and consequently from the housing (6) of the sole (3).
  • the stud may include a plurality of holes (35), in which are inserted fastening devices such as screws, rivets, or threaded rivets internally, and which pass through the adapter piece (20) through a set of holes (29), to anchor inside the sole (3) through the assembly of holes (14).
  • this can be done directly in the sole (3), or in a preferred form, inside a reinforcing element (50) arranged inside the shoe above the sole (3), and which can advantageously be part of an articulated frame as described in particular in document FR 95.05615 of the Applicant not published on the date of filing of the this request.
  • this reinforcement does not extend beyond the zone metatarsophalangeal joint to allow flexion of the foot during walking.
  • the essential advantage of the surf shoe according to the invention is that allow the adaptation of different cooperation bodies with the fixation by not modifying that the adaptation piece inserted in the housing (6).
  • the adapter piece (40) illustrated in Figure 3 has an outer contour identical to the adaptation piece (20) of FIG. 2. More precisely, the edges front (41) and rear (42) of this adaptation piece (40) also coincide with the vertical sections (8) and (9) of the housing (6) of the sole (3). This piece adapter (40) can therefore come in place of the adapter piece (20).
  • the shim (40) has a plurality of recesses (43, 44) in which the cooperation member (60) is embedded with the fixing proper. More specifically, the recesses (43) form a cross according to the diagonals of the adapter piece (40) while the channels (44) follow the front and rear edges (41, 42) of this same adaptation piece. The zones (46-49) protruding around these recesses allow efficient positioning of the element (60).
  • this element (60) consists of two axes (61, 62) arranged laterally to the sole, and substantially parallel to the portions of the outline of the shoe which they are facing. These axes (61, 62) are intended to be trapped in the binding located on the surfboard (not shown). These axes (61, 62) are connected by a portion forming a plate openwork having segments (63, 64) corresponding to the channels (43, 44) of the plate (40).
  • this member (60) in the sole is done by screwing or any other equivalent means through the holes (65) located opposite drilled holes (45) in the adaptation piece (40). These same holes (45) lead to a set holes (15) drilled for this purpose in the upper face (7) of the housing (6) of the sole (3).
  • the joining can be done directly in the sole or in an element additional (50) located inside the shoe.
  • the adapter piece has on its face upper of the pins intended to plug the holes of the sole corresponding to the other adapter blocks dedicated to different fixings.
  • the surf shoe according to the invention can receive a third adapter part (70) as illustrated in FIG. 4.
  • this adaptation piece has front (71) and rear (72) sides complementary to the vertical sections (8 and 9) of the housing (6).
  • This piece adapter (70) has thicker zones (76, 77), located at front and rear and connected by the axis (73) of cooperation with a fixing.
  • this adaptation piece (70) has holes (75) in look of holes drilled on the upper face (7) of the housing (6).
  • the surf shoe according to the invention can also receive a fourth adapter part (80) as illustrated in FIG. 5. More specifically, this adaptation piece (80) has on each of its lateral faces (83, 84), a recess (81.82), arranged substantially at mid-height, from 3 to 10 centimeters in wide and 0.5 to 2 centimeters high. These lateral recesses (83,84) receive, as illustrated in Figure 6 two inserts (85,86) made of a stiffness material much higher than that of the rest of the adapter piece (80). Typically, these inserts (85,86) are made of rigid plastic or metal. They are intended to be interpenetrated by transverse jaws of the surfboard fixing (not represented).
  • the invention covers multiple variants of geometries and architecture responding to the same principle, that is to say allowing from a single shoe, by simply replacing an adapter, mounting of different types of cooperative bodies with architectural fixings very varied.
