  • a system has been illustrated according to which it is possible to modify the effective length of the front strand (920) attached to the attachment point (922), thanks to a succession of notches (20). Of course such a provision could be adopted for the rear strand (921).
  • each of the blades is retained at its upper end (71) by a link (92) or a cable comprising a front strand (920) and a rear strand (921).
  • the variation of the inclination of blades can be obtained by changing the length of the front strands (920) and rear (921). This modification can be obtained by all appropriate means.
  • the restraint of the lower end (70) of each of the blades (7a, 7b) is suitable and allows, on the one hand, the pivoting of these in its own plane and, on the other hand, the outward movement to allow the buckling of said blades.

  • the articulation between the lower part (4a) on the upper part (4b) can be carried out in different ways, such as, for example, with a joint with an axis (5), as illustrated in FIG. 1, or with a flexible zone (500), as illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6, or as it is shown in Figure 9 where the lower part (4a) and the upper part (4b) are surmounted on a flexible deformable link (501).
  • FIGs 10 and 11 illustrate another embodiment according to which the plane of the spring blades (7a, 7b) is not parallel to the plane of general symmetry (P) of the shoe, as in the realizations above, but arranged substantially perpendicular to this plane.
  • the two lateral blades (7a, 7b) are inclined to extend backwards, while a connecting element is provided transverse (10) retaining the upper ends (71) of said two blades.
  • this transverse element (10) extends horizontally behind the user's Achilles heel, and that as in the embodiment of Figures 5 and 6, said ends (70 and 71) are connected to lower parts (4a) and upper parts (4b) via a strand front (920) and a rear strand (921) of a link (92).

It is therefore enough, to vary the inclination, to modify winding the cable by pivoting the pulley after having uncoupled from the transverse element (10). It goes without saying that the device is symmetrical with respect to the plane (P).

  • the load F is offset relative to the axis of the neutral fiber, the shift "e” gives rise to a moment F x e, before to achieve the critical force of Euler's buckling proper, which allows to obtain a rounded curve as illustrated by curve b of Figure 14.
  • the load is offset more than half the thickness of the blade.
  • Figure 13c illustrates a another variant in which said blade has an initial curvature giving an offset "e” similar to that obtained in the realization of Figure 13b.
  • the spring leaves (7a, 7b) must store a quantity significant energy and withstand a large number of bending cycles with high forces and stresses, this for a minimum weight and a reasonable cost. Thus, they are advantageously made in composite material.

  • the matrices or resins can be of the thermoplastic or thermosetting type.
  • the spring blades (7a, 7b) can consist of a stack of several woven sheets of fibers, for example, bidirectional, the particular orientation of the fibers constituting each woven sheet having an appropriate orientation so that the blades have the characteristics adequate elasticity.
  • 90 ° fibers allow better resistance to this shear, for example at the heart of the blade, near the neutral fiber, by pultrusion, or by gluing or welding a layer of fiber low volume ratio in matrix with large elastic elongation, on the two sides of the blade.
  • the core of the blade is subjected mainly to shear forces, and contributes little to rigidity, resistance and the stored energy, we can use a construction of the type called sandwich, with plastic lighter than composite at the core, and unidirectional fibers on the faces.
  • Figures 16a and 16b are illustrations of a blade of the type sandwich, whereby a core layer at the heart (75c) is covered by two outer layers (75a, 75b).
  • the central layer (75c) may be rigid or flexible plastic, while the layers external (75a, 75b) are made of composite material as proposed previously, the density at the ends (70, 71) of the heart (75c) of the blade being at least equal to the density of the heart in the center.
  • the leaf springs (7a, 7b) are of elongated shape of low thickness to be able to deform by buckling. Their constitution and their size must be chosen according to the performance at get. Likewise, their width can be either constant, as is illustrated in FIGS. 5, 6, 11a and 15a, either variable, as illustrated in Figures 1 and 15b.
  • Figures 15d and 15e illustrate a variant additional possible that the thickness of the blade is variable, the compression face being for example plane, while the face external (75a) subjected to traction has a transverse curvature, and this, so that the side edges of the blades are thinner than the central part.
  • the thickness of the blades can be constant or variable, as illustrated in figures 15c and 16b (in the longitudinal direction) as in Figures 15d and 15e (in the transverse direction), without depart from the scope of the invention.
