Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of devices for installing and extracting bases used for fixing studs under the sole of a shoe, for example a sports shoe such as a football shoe.
  • the shoes can be provided with two types of bases.
  • a first type is fixed, embedded in the material forming the sole of the shoe.
  • a second type can be removed and replaced by being fixed by the inside of the shoe. It is understood that the installation or extraction of such bases from the inside of a shoe which is an inaccessible place, is a difficult operation.
  • the sole is pierced over its entire thickness with a number of holes corresponding to the number of studs that one wishes to have. The operator, during the manufacture of the shoe or during a change of base, grasps a base and arranges it from the inside of the shoe in the hole for which it is intended.
  • a clamp with two articulated branches serving on one side as a handle and on the other side as jaws for fitting and extracting bases.
  • the jaws can receive a removable rod for the extraction of bases and accessories allowing to screw and unscrew the different types of crampons.
  • Pliers provided for screwing / unscrewing two types of studs thus comprises a total of four parts.
  • the shoe is disposed between the jaws of the pliers and the upper or upper of the shoe is also clamped between said jaws.
  • the operation of this clamp is satisfactory, however it turns out to be bulky and relatively heavy in use and is therefore not suitable for being put in the pocket of a garment.
  • the clamp comprises a total of four parts, three of which are small, which present a risk of loss, for example on a football field.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy the drawbacks of the above clamp and to propose a device for fitting and extracting compact bases, lightweight and reducing the risk of loss of parts.
  • the installation and extraction device is intended for shoe stud bases.
  • the bases are intended to be mounted on top of a shoe sole and to receive studs screwed from below the sole.
  • the device comprises a first portion forming a handle, provided with means for fitting bases on a first face and a second portion forming a handle provided with means for extracting bases on a first face.
  • the first face of the first portion is capable of being fixed by interlocking in a second face of the second portion and the first face of the second portion is capable of being fixed by interlocking in a second face of the first portion.
  • the two portions nested one inside the other are the length of a user's hand.
  • the device is easily stored in a pocket of a garment.
  • the fitting means comprises a flat support surface projecting from said first face of the first portion and a threaded rod projecting from said support surface plane. It is thus possible to place a base by forcing it into the material of the sole by a tensile force obtained by screwing the threaded rod into the base by resting on the underside of the sole. This avoids crushing the upper.
  • the planar bearing surface is of hexagonal shape.
  • the extraction means comprises a cylindrical bar projecting from the first face of the second portion. The extraction is carried out by introducing the cylindrical bar into the hole provided for the crampon and by exerting a pushing force on the device.
  • the second face of the first portion comprises a first means for screwing / unscrewing crampons
  • the second face of the second portion is provided with a second means for screwing / unscrewing crampons.
  • the first face of the first portion and the first face of the second portion are capable of being fixed by interlocking.
  • the device then has no roughness.
  • the threaded rod of the first face of the first portion can protrude inside a hole provided in the bar of the first face of the second portion, and said bar can protrude into a hole provided between the rod threaded and the planar bearing surface of the first face of the first portion, and said planar bearing surface may protrude into a recess provided around the bar, in the first face of the second portion.
  • the second face of the first portion is of hexagonal shape intended to fit into a hollow of corresponding shape on the first face of the second portion. This secures the two portions in rotation.
  • the first face of the first portion may comprise a protuberance of hexagonal shape intended to come to fit into a hollow of suitable shape of the second face of the second portion.
  • the two portions are secured in rotation.
  • the device has three nesting possibilities, the first for the installation of bases, the second for the extraction of bases and the third for storage or for the instantaneous passage of a type of crampon to the another, with in all three cases an axial connection by interlocking and in rotation by complementarity of shapes between the two portions.
  • FIG. 1 schematically represents a base
  • Figure 2 is a partial view in longitudinal section of a shoe equipped with a base
  • Figure 3 is a side elevational view of the device according to the invention in a nesting mode
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 3 showing the device in another nesting mode
  • Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 3 in another nesting mode.
  • the base 1 comprises a flat upper face 2, a cylindrical portion 3 perpendicular to the upper face 2 and extending downwards, and a plurality of claws 4 arranged on the edge of the base 1, around the cylindrical portion 3 and directed downwards.
  • a hole 5 coaxial with the cylindrical portion 3 passes through the assembly of the base 1 and is provided with a thread.
  • a shoe 6 comprises a sole 7 and a vamp 8.
  • the sole 7 is provided with a plurality of through holes 9, only one of which is shown in FIG. 2.
  • the sole 7 comprises on its lower surface 7a, a circular receiving surface 10 and disposed around the hole 9.
  • the sole 7 comprises on its upper surface 7b, a base 1 whose cylindrical portion 3 is disposed in the hole 9 and whose claws 4 protrude in the material, generally synthetic, forming the sole 7.
  • the device for installing and extracting bases comprises a first portion 11 and a second portion 12.
  • the first portion 11 comprises a first face 13 and on the opposite side a second face 14.
  • the first face 13 comprises a threaded rod 15 projecting towards the outside and of a diameter adapted to cooperate with the threading of the hole 5 of the base 1.
  • the threaded rod 15 is of suitable length to be screwed into the base 1, over a sufficient length even before base 1 has been forced into the material of the sole 7.
  • the first face 13 of the first portion 11 also comprises a flat bearing surface 16 provided around the threaded rod 15, hexagonal in shape and slightly projecting from the first face 13 proper, for example projecting 7 mm, while the threaded rod 15 projecting 1 11 mm relative to the bearing surface 16. Radially, between the thread rod e 15 and the bearing surface 16 is provided a bore
  • Each side of the bearing surface 16 is of length equal to 7 mm.
  • the second face 14 of the first portion 11 comprises a hexagonal projection 18 of short length, for example 3 mm, and sides of the order of 13 mm.
  • a recess 19 is provided in the center of this projection 18.
  • a metal insert not shown, annular and comprising three radial pins directed inwards and of a shape adapted to a given type of crampons. We can thus engage with a crampon for its screwing or unscrewing.
  • the second portion 12 comprises a first face 20 and a second face 21 opposite the first.
  • the first face 20 comprises a first hexagonal hollow 22 with dimensions adapted to the projection 18 of the second face 14 of the first portion 1 1, a second recess 23 coaxial with the first recess 22 and of dimensions adapted to the bearing surface 16 of the first face 13 of the first portion 11, and a hollow cylindrical bar 24 coaxial with the recesses 22 and 23 projecting relative to the first face 20, for example of the order of 12 mm.
  • the hole 25 of the cylindrical bar 24 traverses the latter over its entire length and opens onto the second face 21 of the second portion 12.
  • the hole 25 is smooth and of diameter suitable for receiving the threaded rod 15 of the first face 13 of the first portion 1 1.
  • the second face 21 of the second portion 12 comprises a hexagonal recess 26 coaxial with the hole 25 of the cylindrical bar 24 and in communication with said hole 25.
  • the recess 26 is of dimension adapted to cooperate with the protuberance formed by the bearing surface 16 of the first face 13 of the first portion 11 and with a given type of studs for their screwing and unscrewing.
  • the first portion 1 1 and the second portion 12 are made of synthetic material with the exception of the threaded rod 15, the cylindrical bar 24 and the metal insert.
  • the side walls l ia and 12a of the first and second portions 1 1 and 12 are provided with reliefs intended to promote gripping and the passage of torque between the hand of a user and the device.
  • the first face 13 of the first portion 11 fits into the second face 21 of the second portion 12.
  • the threaded rod 15 and the bearing surface 16 then protrude into the hole. hexagonal 26. Torque transmission is ensured by the cooperation of the protuberance formed by the bearing surface 16 with the hexagonal hollow 26.
  • the device is thus in the position provided for extracting bases while being able to ensure the screwing / unscrewing of a type of crampon.
  • the first face 20 of the second portion 12 and the second face 14 of the first portion 11 are ready to fit together.
  • the cylindrical bar 24 protrudes into the hexagonal recess 19 and the hexagonal projection 18 is housed in the hexagonal recess 22 of corresponding size, which allows the transmission of torque.
