Abstract

The ski-boot consists of a shell (1) forming the upper and sole, a collar (4) which fits around the base of the leg and a second collar (7) which supports the inside of the leg. The second collar is semi-rigid and is attached to the first collar, covering slightly more than half of the circumference at the top of the boot. A wedge-shaped projection (12) fits into a notch (13) at the top of the boot and controls the flexibility of the boot when the leg is flexed.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet une chaussure de ski constituée essentiellement d'une coque formant la semelle et la tige et d'un collier de bas de jambe articulé sur la coque et muni d'un élément de renfort intérieur fixé au collier et renforçant le côté de la chaussure correspondant au côté intérieur de la jambe.The present invention relates to a ski boot essentially consisting of a shell forming the sole and upper and a lower leg collar articulated on the hull and provided with a reinforcing element inside attached to the collar and reinforcing the side of the shoe corresponding to the inner side of the leg.

Une telle chaussure est connue du brevet FR 2 649 594. Dans cette chaussure, le collier est muni d'un renfort constitué d'une plaque relativement rigide fixée de manière réglable et amovible sur la face intérieure du collier. Cette plaque est en matière synthétique, mais pourrait être en métal ou en fibres de verre ou de carbone. Elle a pour but d'améliorer la qualité de la transmission de l'effort latéral de la jambe au ski de manière à améliorer le contrôle des skis. Pour le reste, cette chaussure se comporte comme une chaussure non munie de renfort, en particulier en ce qui concerne le chaussage et le déchaussage.Such a shoe is known from patent FR 2,649,594. In this shoe, the collar is provided with a reinforcement consisting of a relatively rigid plate fixed from adjustable and removable way on the inside of the necklace. This plate is made of synthetic material, but could be metal or fiberglass or carbon. It aims to improve the quality of transmission of lateral force from the leg to the ski so as to improve the control of the skis. For the rest, this shoe behaves like a shoe not provided with reinforcement, in particular with regard to putting on and taking off.

Du brevet FR 2 742 026, on connaít par ailleurs une chaussure de ski dont le collier est muni d'une plaque frontale servant d'appui tibial. Dans le brevet EP 0685 178, il est en outre proposé d'utiliser des pièces auxiliaires de renfort de forme asymétrique permettant, selon leur position, d'améliorer les caractéristiques dynamiques de la chaussure soit pour le slalom et le ski sur glace, soit pour la descente. Ces pièces viennent se fixer amoviblement sous la partie antérieure du collier. From patent FR 2 742 026, we also know a ski boot whose collar is provided with a plate frontal serving as tibial support. In the EP patent 0685 178, it is further proposed to use parts asymmetrical reinforcement auxiliaries allowing, according to their position, to improve the characteristics dynamics of the shoe for both slalom and ski on ice, either for the descent. These parts come to be fixed detachably under the part front of the collar.

La présente invention vise un but différent. Elle a pour but d'améliorer le confort et de faciliter le chaussage et le déchaussage de la chaussure sans porter préjudice aux performances de la chaussure, c'est-à-dire à ses caractéristiques dynamiques. En d'autres termes, l'invention consiste en la fabrication d'une chaussure utilisant des matériaux souples, donc confortables, dont les caractéristiques dynamiques, en particulier la prise d'appui vers l'intérieur et vers l'avant et la flexion, sont modifiées par l'adjonction du renfort.The present invention has a different purpose. She has to improve comfort and facilitate putting on and taking off the shoe without wearing damage to the performance of the shoe, i.e. to its dynamic characteristics. In others terms, the invention consists in the manufacture of a shoe using flexible materials, so comfortable, whose dynamic characteristics, particularly the inward support and towards the front and the bending, are modified by the addition reinforcement.

A cet effet, la chaussure selon l'invention est caractérisée en ce que l'élément de renfort est constitué d'une pièce semi-rigide en forme de demi collier fixée au collier et entourant le bord supérieur de la coque sur un peu plus de la moitié du pourtour du collier, et en ce que la chaussure comprend des moyens d'interférence du renfort avec la coque de manière à ce que l'élément de renfort contrôle la flexibilité de la chaussure lors de la flexion de la jambe.To this end, the shoe according to the invention is characterized in that the reinforcing element is consisting of a semi-rigid piece in the shape of a half collar attached to the collar and surrounding the upper edge of the hull on a little more than half of the circumference of the collar, and in that the shoe comprises means interference of the reinforcement with the shell so that that the reinforcing element controls the flexibility of the shoe when bending the leg.

De cette manière, il est possible de réaliser une chaussure dont la coque est relativement souple et confortable, l'appui côté intérieur et l'appui tibial étant assurés par la pièce de renfort, lorsque le collier est fermé. Lorsque le collier est ouvert pour le chaussage ou le déchaussage, il libère la flexibilité de la coque, de telle sorte que celle-ci peut être plus facilement chaussée et déchaussée. In this way, it is possible to perform a shoe with a relatively flexible shell and comfortable, internal side support and tibial support being provided by the reinforcement piece, when the collar is closed. When the collar is open for putting on or taking off, it releases the flexibility of the shell, so that it can be more easily put on and taken off.

Un autre avantage important de l'invention est la possibilité, à partir d'une souplesse minimale de la coque, par exemple 54 Shore D, et d'un collier relativement souple, de réaliser des chaussures de différentes rigidités par l'adjonction d'un renfort plus ou moins rigide. Ceci facilite dans une grande mesure la gestion des stocks.Another important advantage of the invention is the possibility, from a minimum flexibility of the shell, for example 54 Shore D, and a collar relatively flexible, to make different rigidities by the addition of a reinforcement more or less rigid. This facilitates in a large measures inventory management.

Selon un mode préférée de l'invention, le côté intérieur du bord supérieur de la coque présente une encoche en V et l'élément de renfort présente, sur sa face intérieure, une saillie en forme de coin venant s'emboíter, en position fermée de la chaussure, dans l'encoche en V. L'encoche en V a pour effet de faciliter l'ouverture de la coque pour le chaussage, la saillie en forme de coin de l'élément de renfort venant supprimer cette flexibilité supplémentaire une fois chaussé.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the side inside the upper edge of the hull has a V-shaped notch and the reinforcing element present on its inner side, a wedge-shaped projection coming from fit in the closed position of the shoe in the V notch. The V notch has the effect of facilitate the opening of the shell for fitting, wedge-shaped projection of the reinforcing element coming from remove this extra flexibility once shod.

En outre, la pièce de renfort vient avantageusement s'appuyer frontalement contre le bord supérieur de la coque en assurant une continuité d'épaisseur, ainsi qu'une continuité de la face intérieure de la coque.In addition, the reinforcement piece advantageously comes lean frontally against the upper edge of the shell ensuring thickness continuity, as well that a continuity of the interior face of the hull.

Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, un mode d'exécution de l'invention et une variante de celui-ci.The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, a mode of the invention and a variant thereof.

La figure 1 est une vue en éclaté de la coque, du collier et de l'élément de renfort. Figure 1 is an exploded view of the shell, the collar and reinforcement element.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe verticale, à plus grande échelle, à travers l'une des articulations du collier sur la coque.Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view, more large scale, through one of the joints of the necklace on the shell.

La figure 3 représente une variante d'exécution.Figure 3 shows an alternative embodiment.

La chaussure représentée est constituée d'une coque 1 constituant, de manière connue, la tige 2 se fermant sur le devant de la chaussure par deux rabats et la semelle 3 de la chaussure, d'un collier 4 articulé sur la coque 1, de chaque côté de celle-ci, en deux points opposés, tels que le point 5, au moyen d'un rivet 6 (figure 2), et d'un élément de renfort 7. Toutes ces pièces sont des pièces injectées, par exemple en polyuréthanne avec ajout d'un additif de manière à obtenir une rigidité plus ou moins grande, ceci de manière bien connue.The shoe represented consists of a shell 1 constituting, in known manner, the rod 2 closing on the front of the shoe by two flaps and the sole 3 of the shoe, of a collar 4 articulated on shell 1, on each side thereof, at two points opposite, such as point 5, by means of a rivet 6 (Figure 2), and a reinforcing element 7. All of these parts are injected parts, for example in polyurethane with addition of an additive so as to obtain a greater or lesser rigidity, this of well known way.

Le matériau de la coque 1 présente, par exemple, une rigidité de 54 Shore D, ce qui est approximativement la dureté minimale pour cette application. Le collier 4 est relativement souple, alors que l'élément de renfort 7 présente une rigidité supérieure à celle de la coque 1.The material of the shell 1 has, for example, a stiffness of 54 Shore D, which is approximately the minimum hardness for this application. The necklace 4 is relatively flexible, while the reinforcing element 7 has a rigidity greater than that of the shell 1.

L'élément de renfort 7 s'étend sur un peu plus de la moitié du pourtour du collier 4. Il est muni, à l'avant, d'un téton 8 venant s'emboíter, de l'intérieur du collier 4, dans un trou 9 de ce collier et, à l'arrière, d'un second téton 10 venant s'emboíter dans un trou 11 prévu dans le dos du collier 4. L'élément de renfort 7 s'étend donc de chaque côté du trou 11, de telle sorte qu'il vient entourer partiellement le bas du mollet.The reinforcing element 7 extends over a little more than the half of the circumference of the collar 4. It is provided, at the front, of a nipple 8 coming to fit, from the inside of the collar 4, in a hole 9 of this collar and, at the rear, a second stud 10 which fits into a hole 11 provided in the back of the collar 4. The element of reinforcement 7 therefore extends on each side of the hole 11, so that it partially surrounds the bottom calf.

L'élément de renfort 7 présente, sur sa face intérieure, une saillie 12 en forme de coin orienté sensiblement verticalement. Cette saillie 12 est constituée d'une surépaisseur de la matière de l'élément de renfort. De son côté, le bord supérieur de la coque 1, du côté correspondant à l'intérieur du pied, présente une encoche 13 également en forme de V géométriquement semblable à la forme de la saillie 12 et sensiblement de même étendue. Lorsque les pièces représentées sont assemblées, la saillie 12 est engagée dans l'encoche 13.The reinforcing element 7 has, on its face interior, a wedge-shaped projection 12 oriented substantially vertically. This projection 12 is consisting of an extra thickness of the material the reinforcing element. For its part, the upper edge of the shell 1, on the side corresponding to the interior of the foot, has a notch 13 also V-shaped geometrically similar to the shape of the projection 12 and substantially the same extent. When the pieces shown are assembled, the projection 12 is engaged in notch 13.

L'encoche 13 a pour effet d'augmenter la capacité de déformation de la partie supérieure de la coque 1 et par conséquent de faciliter le chaussage et le déchaussage de la chaussure en libérant les rabats de la coque. Par contre, lorsque le collier 4 est serré autour de la jambe, l'encoche 13 est occupée par la saillie 12 de telle sorte que la coque devient indéformable et que la flexibilité est fortement réduite. Ainsi, au moyen d'un renfort unique, on améliore simultanément l'appui avant intérieur, donc la conduite du ski, et la rigidité dynamique de la chaussure.The notch 13 has the effect of increasing the capacity of deformation of the upper part of the shell 1 and therefore to facilitate the fitting and release of the shoe by releasing the flaps shell. By cons, when the collar 4 is tight around the leg, the notch 13 is occupied by the projection 12 so that the shell becomes non-deformable and flexibility is strongly scaled down. Thus, by means of a single reinforcement, we simultaneously improves the front interior support, so the driving the ski, and the dynamic stiffness of the shoe.

A la figure 2, on voit que l'élément de renfort 7 présente une partie inférieure amincie 7a entourant le bord supérieur de la coque 1. Au-dessus de cette partie amincie, l'élément de renfort 7 présente une zone relativement épaisse 7b venant s'appuyer frontalement contre le bord supérieur 14 de la coque 1 de manière à assurer une continuité de la face intérieure 15 de la coque. En outre, au-dessus du bord inférieur de la partie 7a, la coque va en s'amincissant légèrement et il en est de même du collier 4. Une certaine continuité de l'épaisseur totale se trouve ainsi assurée dans la zone de superposition de la coque, du collier et de l'élément de renfort.In FIG. 2, it can be seen that the reinforcing element 7 has a thinned lower part 7a surrounding the upper edge of the hull 1. Above this part thinner, the reinforcing element 7 has a zone relatively thick 7b coming to bear frontally against the upper edge 14 of the shell 1 so as to ensure continuity of the inner face 15 of the shell. In addition, above the bottom edge of the part 7a, the hull becomes slightly thinner and it is the same for necklace 4. A certain continuity of the total thickness is thus ensured in the overlapping area of the shell, collar and the reinforcing element.

La chaussure est bien entendu munie de moyens de serrage conventionnels tels que des boucles, ainsi que d'un chausson intérieur de confort.The shoe is of course provided with means of conventional tightening such as buckles, as well as an inner comfort shoe.

Selon une variante d'exécution, l'angle de l'encoche 13 pourrait être plus grand que l'angle formé par la saillie 12 et l'espace subsistant entre au moins un côté de l'encoche 13 et la saillie pourrait être rempli d'un matériau élastomère. L'angle de l'encoche 13 pourrait être agrandi seulement vers l'avant, de sorte que l'élastomère serait seulement en avant de la saillie, conférant ainsi une certaine élasticité au collier lors de la flexion de la jambe.According to an alternative embodiment, the angle of the notch 13 could be larger than the angle formed by the projection 12 and the remaining space between at least one side of notch 13 and the projection could be filled of an elastomeric material. The angle of the notch 13 could be enlarged only forward, so that the elastomer would only be in front of the protruding, thus giving a certain elasticity to the collar when bending the leg.

La figure 3 représente une variante d'exécution dans laquelle la saillie 12 est remplacée par un téton 16 et l'encoche en V 13 est remplacée par une lumière 17 découpée dans la coque 2, en arc de cercle centré sur l'articulation 5. La partie antérieure de cette lumière 17 est occupée par un matériau élastomère 18, tel que du caoutchouc, laissant libre un trou 19 dans lequel vient s'engager le téton 16 lors de la fermeture du collier. En flexion avant, le matériau élastique 18 confère au collier une plus grande flexibilité.FIG. 3 represents an alternative embodiment in which the projection 12 is replaced by a stud 16 and the V notch 13 is replaced by a light 17 cut in shell 2, in an arc centered on the joint 5. The front part of this lumen 17 is occupied by an elastomeric material 18, such as rubber, leaving a hole 19 in which comes to engage the pin 16 when closing the necklace. In forward bending, the elastic material 18 gives the necklace greater flexibility.

La lumière 17 pourrait être remplacée par un trou correspondant au trou 19.Light 17 could be replaced by a hole corresponding to hole 19.
