Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lacing system for an article of footwear and more specifically, the invention relates to a lacing device for fastening a boot.
  • a most common form of footwear lacing assembly uses a simple lace passing through a series of eyelets located on both sides of the footwear opening.
  • the lace is pulled to close the opening about the user's foot and the tension in the lace can be adjusted for a comfortable fit.
  • This basic system entirely satisfactory for light shoes having but a few eyelets on each side of the opening, becomes less satisfactory with boots where the length of the lace and the number of eyelets make it cumbersome to adjust the tension along the entire opening of the boot.
  • the lace must often be tightened in sections starting from the lower portion of the opening to the upper portion of the opening while holding on to the lace to maintain the tension when moving the hands to the next section.
  • US Pat. No. 245,387 discloses eyelets having V-shaped formations in which the lace is wedged during the tightening process. US Pat. No. 245,387 also discloses a lacing hook having a V-shaped formation of a different design. These eyelets and hooks provide a means of wedging the lace at least partially in order to help in the tightening of the boot. However, the user must still go through the tedious process of tightening the boot section by section. Furthermore, the lace may end up being wedged so tightly that it becomes difficult to pull.
  • Some boots have been fitted in the upper portion of the boot with lacing hooks having teeth such that when the bottom portion of the boot is tightened, the lace is engaged to these lacing hooks in order to lock the lace under tension and complete the fastening of the upper part of the boot.
  • lacing hook is partially disclosed in US Pat. No. 5,761,777. These locking hooks by their design do not allow the lace to slide and cannot be used to pull on the lace for tightening. They serve as a lace locking means to assist in the transition point between the lower and upper portion of the boot.
  • Canadian Patent No. 1,001,843 discloses a skate boot having a plurality of plastic side loops on each side of the boot's opening instead of the standard eyelets.
  • the interior portion of the side loops has a curvilinear profile, which enables the lace to slide therethrough and allow the user to tighten the lace with a single pull.
  • Top side loops are provided with a locking element in which the user introduces the lace under tension to lock the lace as the user makes the final knot.
  • US Pat. No. 5,956,823 also discloses a lacing assembly in which a plurality of low friction guide elements are located on each side of the boot's opening and in which the lace passes.
  • Guide/blocking elements are located on each side of the boot opening at the upper end of the lacing zone. The user is able with a single pull on the end of the lace, to tighten the entire lower portion of the boot.
  • the guide/blocking element has a cylindrical sliding portion in which the lace is inserted and a blocking portion comprising a series of teeth. The user pulls the lace in an upward direction through the sliding portion and when the desired tension is attained, brings the lace across the opening and into the blocking portion of the guide/blocking element. The user may complete the knot while the lace tension is maintained.
  • 1,001,843 limits the number of side loops to a minimum to provide more length of lace for opening the boot for insertion of the foot.
  • the last guide/blocking elements are positioned on the lower portion of the boot's opening. The ankle portion of the boot must be tightened by other means.
  • the invention provides a lacing stud for slidably retaining a lace, the lacing stud comprising:
  • the braking means comprises at least one locking tooth protruding from the inner side surface or the outer side surface.
  • the braking tooth comprises a leading edge having a mild inclination to allow the lace to slide smoothly in a first direction and a trailing edge having a sharp inclination which restricts the motion of the lace in a second direction opposite the first direction.
  • the lacing stud comprises an insertion restriction adapted to partially enclose the lace within the curved groove such that the lace has to be snapped in and out of engagement with the curved groove of the lacing stud.
  • the invention provides a boot comprising a sole and an upper including a left quarter and a right quarter disposed at opposite sides of the upper and defining an opening therebetween for insertion of the user's foot inside the boot.
  • the boot includes a tongue depending from a toe area and connected thereto, the tongue closing the opening and providing cushioning means for a front portion of the user's foot and ankle.
  • the upper further comprising:
  • Figure 1 illustrates a typical in-line roller skate boot 20 having a sole 22 and an upper 24.
  • Upper 24 includes a left quarter 26 and a right quarter 28 disposed at opposite sides of upper 24 and defining an opening 30 therebetween for insertion of the user's foot inside boot 20.
  • Boot 20 includes a tongue 32 depending from a toe area 34 and connected thereto, tongue 32 closing opening 30 and to the extent required, providing cushioning for the front portion of the user's ankle and foot.
  • Inner edges 36 and 38 of quarters 26 and 28 which define opening 30, include a plurality of side loops 40 arranged in opposing pairs evenly spaced apart along the lower portion of opening 30.
  • a single bottom loop 41 is provided at the bottom edge of opening 30.
  • Two sets of lacing studs 42a and 42b are disposed on each side of the ankle portion of each quarter 26 and 28 at a short distance from edges 36 and 38 of opening 30.
  • a lace 45 passes through bottom loop 41 and through each side loop 40 in a conventional crisscross fashion. Above the series of side loops 40, lace 45 is anchored to first and second sets of lacing studs 42a and 42b, after which, a knot 49 is tied and boot 20 is fully fastened.
  • Each side loop 40 comprises an inner portion 46 enclosed in a fabric band 47 which is wrapped around inner plastic portion 46 thereby closing the loop and preventing lace 45 from exiting side loops 40.
  • Side loops 40 are sewn or otherwise attached to the interior portion of edges 36 and 38.
  • the interior portion of side loop 40 where lace 45 is nested consists essentially of a plastic pathway on which lace 45 is able to slide easily.
  • Side loops 40 are designed to reduce the lace friction to a minimum to allow the user to tighten the lower portion of boot 20 with a single pulling action on the lace ends.
  • the user Prior to engaging lace 45 to the first set of lacing studs 42a, the user grips the ends of lace 45 above the series of side loops 40 and pulls to tighten the lower portion of boot 20.
  • the low friction side loops 40 provides a substantially even distribution of the lace tension to each pair of opposing side loops 40. Once the lower portion of opening 30 is firmly tightened, the user then simply loops lace 45 around lacing studs 42a and 42b to complete the fastening of skate boot 20.
  • FIGs 2-6 illustrate a first embodiment of a lacing stud 42 isolated from boot 20.
  • Lacing stud 42 is a molded plastic piece comprising a central post 50 and a thin planar anchoring base 52.
  • Post 50 comprises a top portion 51, an intermediate portion 53 and a lower portion 55.
  • lacing studs 42a and 42b are installed under the layer of material 25 making up the exterior portion of boot 20, into apertures 27 made in external material 25; apertures 27 having the general shape of the central post 50.
  • Anchoring base 52 of lacing studs 42a and 42b and the exterior layer of material 25 are sewn together as depicted by stitching lines 54 and 57; the thickness of anchoring base 52 being sufficiently thin to allow stitching therethrough.
  • lacing studs 42 could be used as well.
  • the boot construction itself may dictate the preferred type of fastening of lacing stud 42 to the boot.
  • a hard shell skate boot may require rivets to properly secure lacing studs 42 to the boot.
  • the anchoring portion of lacing studs 42 may easily be modified to accommodate different types of fastening.
  • the use of rivets requires a least one hole and preferable a pair of holes to be made in anchoring base 52 to accommodate the rivets which may then be fastened to the boot.
  • Figure 3 is a side elevational view of lacing stud 42 shown with anchoring base inserted under the exterior layer of material 25 of boot 20.
  • the intermediate portion 53 of post 50 comprises a curved groove 60 defined by transversely by an inner side surface 54, an outer side surface 56 and a bottom surface 58 extending between inner side surface 54 and outer side surface 56.
  • Curved groove 60 extends at least partially around the periphery of post 50 and defines a neck portion for guiding and slidably retaining a lace engaged therein.
  • Curved groove 60 is oriented substantially parallel to anchoring base 52 and therefor parallel to the side of boot 20 when installed.
  • Curved groove 60 includes braking means for impeding sliding motion of the lace.
  • the braking means includes in a specific embodiment, a pair of teeth 62a and 62b projecting toward one another and protruding from inner side surface 54 and from outer side surface 56 respectively to reduce the dimension of curved groove 60 thereby restricting the passage of the lace when the latter is engaged into curved groove 60.
  • the outer side surface 56 further comprises an insertion restriction in the form of a snapping knob 64 extending across the entry of curved groove 60 to partially enclose the lace within curved groove 60 such that the lace must be forced in and out of engagement with lacing stud 42.
  • Knob 64 restricts the entrance of the lace into curved groove 60 at a single point by reducing the the distance between the end of knob 64 and inner side surface 54 to a distance smaller than the lace diameter such that the user must snap the lace into lacing stud 42 in order to engage groove 60. In use, knob 64 prevents the lace from unduly disengaging lacing stud 42 yet enable the user to disengage the lace easily. As shown in Figure 3, knob 64 extends downwardly from outer side surface 56 and its end restricts entry into groove 60.
  • Figures 4 and 5 are cross-sectional views of the interior portion of lacing stud 42 depicting the curved profile of groove 60.
  • a lace 45 is illustrated in dotted lines following a generally curvilinear path around a portion of post 50.
  • the curvilinear profile of groove 60 enable lace 45 to slide unhindered up to the point where it engages braking teeth 62a and 62b.
  • Tooth 62a (opposite tooth 62b, Figure 5) is located into the path of lace 45 when the latter is engaged to bottom surface 58 and is being pulled in the normal direction "P".
  • teeth 62a and 62b provide the dual function of allowing lace 45 to slide although partially hindered in direction "P" and preventing the sliding back of lace 45 when the user reduced the exertion of tension on lace 45.
  • Figure 5 illustrates the outer side surface 56 of curved groove 60 with braking tooth 62b protruding therefrom.
  • lace 45 engages braking tooth 62b when lace 45 is being pulled in the normal pulling direction "P".
  • Teeth 62b and 62a are substantially triangular and feature a leading edge 68 having a mild inclination to allow lace 45 to slide relatively smoothly in direction "P", and a trailing edge 67 having a sharper inclination to restrict the sliding motion of lace 45 in the opposite direction.
  • knob 64 also protrudes from outer side surface 56 and partially prevents the disengagement of lace 45 from locking stud 42.
  • Figure 6 illustrates lacing stud 42 viewed from the back of the boot with an arrow "P" showing the normal upward lace tightening direction.
  • the profile of tooth 62a is substantially triangular with a leading edge 68 having a mild inclination to allow the lace to slide relatively smoothly in direction "P" and a trailing edge 67 having a sharp inclination which restricts the motion of the lace in the opposite direction.
  • the profile of tooth 62b is a mirror image of tooth 62a as best seen in Figures 4 and 5.
  • teeth 62a and 62b requires the user to exert on the lace ends a pulling force which exceeds the force necessary for tightening the footwear by an amount of force at least superior to the force necessary to overcome the restriction of teeth 62a and 62b against the sliding motion of lace 45 in the direction "P".
  • the pulling force is reduced and the lace brought transversely across opening 36 as shown in Figure 1, the lace is restricted from sliding back through curved groove 60 by the sharper trailing edges 67 of teeth 62a and 62b.
  • lace 45 is refrained from sliding back through curved groove 60 by the braking means located in the lace path.
  • the user may therefore tighten lace 45 while engaged to lacing studs 42a and then bring lace 45 transversely across opening 36 to the other side in a normal crisscross fashion while exerting very little tension on lace 45 since lace 45 is restricted from sliding back by the braking means.
  • Each lace end is then brought transversely across opening 36 to reach the upper lacing studs 42b and in a similar fashion, lace 45 is pulled in the normal upward lace tightening direction "P" for further tightening of the ankle portion 24 of boot 20.
  • the user may then complete knot 49 without having to maintain a substantial tension on the lace end.
  • Lacing studs 42 enable the user to tighten lace 45 in a single step or pulling action without having to, as a second step, bring lace 45 into engagement with some locking portion. Lace 45 being already engaged to the braking means when the user is pulling on the lace ends along the normal upward pulling direction "P", lace 45 is restricted from sliding back through lacing stud 42 without requiring the user to lock the lace as a second step to the pulling action. This simplifies the overall tightening operation of a boot.
  • FIGs 7 to 10 illustrate a second embodiment of a lacing stud according to the invention.
  • a lacing stud 80 is shown having a substantially circular post 82 and a thin planar anchoring base 84 for the purpose of securing lacing stud 80 to the exterior layer of material of a skate boot as previously described.
  • Post 82 generally comprises a top portion 51, an intermediate portion 53 and a lower portion 55.
  • the intermediate portion 53 of post 82 comprises a curved groove 83 generally parallel to anchoring base 84 and extending at least partially around the periphery of post 82.
  • Curved groove 83 defines a neck portion for guiding and slidably retaining a lace engaged thereto.
  • Curved groove 83 is defined transversely by an inner side surface 90, an outer side surface 92 and a bottom surface 94. Curved groove 83 comprises three braking teeth 85, 86 and 87 as braking means to restrict the sliding motion of a lace engaged thereto.
  • Anchoring base 84 is illustrated as completely surrounding post 82. However, anchoring base 84 may extend only partially around post 82. Indeed anchoring base 84 may extend on the side of curved groove 83 such that the extension of anchoring base 84 provides a retaining force to lacing stud 80 which counteracting the pulling force in the direction "P" and the lace tension once the boot is fastened.
  • a first braking tooth 96 having a substantially triangular profile protrudes from outer side surface 92, its leading and trailing edges having substantially the same angle.
  • a second braking tooth 97 and a third braking tooth 98 protrude from inner side surface 90 and are disposed one on each side of the opposing first braking tooth 96 thereby creating a braking zone in curved groove 83 of lacing stud 80.
  • the braking zone portion has reduced dimension for restricting the passage of a lace 45 when the latter is engaged into curved groove 83 and is bearing against bottom wall 94.
  • the three braking teeth 96, 97 and 98 are positioned such that they engaged lace 45 when the user is pulling lace 45 in the direction "P".
  • braking teeth 96, 97 and 98 form a braking zone in which lace 45 must snake its way through causing restriction of the sliding motion of lace 45 and partially blocking lace 45.
  • Second braking tooth 97 and third braking tooth 98 feature a generally triangular profile.
  • the combination of teeth 96, 97 and 98 forms a restriction into curved groove 83 which impedes sliding motion of lace 45.
  • the braking zone of lacing stud 80 thereby enables the user to tighten his or her boot in a simple and convenient single step procedure that requires only to pull in a normal upward direction "P" prior to crossing the lace to the following lacing stud 80 or completing the knot.
  • lacing stud 80 is provided with a marker 100 protruding from lower portion 55 of post 80.
  • Marker 100 is a reference point during installation and positioning of lacing stud 80 onto a boot. Since lacing stud 80 has a circular configuration, it may be installed improperly on a boot. To avoid this eventuality, marker 100 is positioned opposite curved groove 83 such that during installation, marker 100 must be oriented facing the opening 36 of boot 20 (fig.1).
  • lacing stud 80 provides the dual function of allowing lace 45 to slide, although partially hindered in direction "P", and preventing the sliding back of lace 45 when the user reduces the pulling tension on the ends of lace 45. Once the desired tightening of lace 45 is reached, the user brings lace 45 across the boot's opening using only minimal force on the lace ends.
  • the overall shape and configuration of teeth 96, 97 and 98 requires the user to exert on the lace ends, a pulling force in the direction "P" which exceeds the force necessary to overcome the restriction of teeth 96, 97 and 98 against the sliding motion of lace 45 in order to tighten lace 45.
  • the sliding restriction of lace 45 caused by teeth 96, 97 and 98 is identical in both directions due to the symmetrical disposition of teeth 96, 97 and 98.
  • the braking means is shown as being positioned substantially parallel to the normal upward lace tightening direction "P". However it is understood that the braking means may be positioned at any point within curved grooves 60 or 83 which is engaged to lace 45 when the latter is being pulled along direction "P". For example, the braking means of curved grooves 60 or 83 may be located in a position preceding the segment of curved grooves which is parallel to the normal upward lace tightening direction "P" illustrated in the Figures. Lacing studs 42 or 80 would still perform their function of braking lace 45 and preventing its sliding back motion such that the user does not have to insert lace 45 into a lace blocking area. Lacing studs 42 and 80 simultaneously allow the user to tighten lace 45 while providing adequate braking to prevent lace 45 from sliding back through curved groove when the tension is reduced on lace 45.
