Definitions

  • the present innovation relates to a roller skate with a foot or toze-operated brake device.
  • the US 6,047,973 describes in-line skates with a support member attached to a roller carrier that extends forward in the direction of travel and has a brake shoe at its front end. For braking, the brake shoe is pressed onto the ground. Due to the frictional forces between the brake shoe and the ground, the ride is slowed down.
  • the US 5,207,438 describes in-line skates, at whose front ends in the direction of travel in the area of the shoe tip, a roller is rotatably mounted, whose axis is aligned parallel to the axes of rotation of the rollers.
  • the roller is held between two lateral clamps and adjoins the front side of these.
  • To brake the toe tip is tilted towards the ground until the roller touches the ground. As soon as the roller touches the ground, it starts to rotate, rubbing its end against the clamps, slowing down the ride.
  • the US 5,280,931 discloses in-line skates, wherein at the rear in the direction of travel of the roller carrier, a cylinder is arranged, whose axis extends transversely to the direction of travel.
  • the cylinder is circumferentially surrounded by a brake tire which is rotatable about the axis of the cylinder.
  • a brake tire that raises Driver the tip of the in-line skates, so that the brake tire touches the ground.
  • the brake tire rotates about the axis of the cylinder, whereby strong frictional forces arise at the contact surfaces between the cylinder and the brake tire, whereby the inline skates are decelerated.
  • roller skates described above are disadvantageous, as for braking always a shift of the skate, ie a raising or lowering of the toe or a buckling of the ankle is required. As a result, the harmonic movement is disturbed, also the braking is the same in particular at a kinking of the ankle associated with a high load and can easily lead to injury.
  • brake shoes were designed for roller skates, which are to be operated via a Bowden cable, which is operated by the skater on a fastened example on the belt handle.
  • the Bowden cable forms an additional part which disturbs the skater and restricts his freedom of movement.
  • foot or toe-operated brake devices for roller skates are known in which disturbing additional parts, such as the Bowden cable, can be dispensed with.
  • a particularly advantageous braking device of the aforementioned type is in the US 5,143,387 described.
  • the known braking device for a roller skate has an elongate guide element which can be displaced translationally in the running direction and counter to the running direction.
  • the guide member carries brake shoes, which are arranged in front of the respective braked rollers, ie the brake shoes are arranged in the direction behind the rollers.
  • a rigid approach is further attached, which extends in the region of the toes of the driver. To operate the braking device, the driver must move the approach and thus the guide member against the direction so that the brake shoes are pressed from the front against the rollers.
  • the translationally displaceable guide element of the known braking device ensures a simple and specializedsunanberichten structure of the braking device.
  • the disadvantage is that the operation of the braking device is difficult.
  • the type of actuation as such namely the displacement of the approach, difficult or requires a certain "toe skill” and on the other hand, a large force is applied to apply a sufficient contact pressure of the brake shoes on the rollers.
  • the DE 298 03 919 U1 discloses a roller skate with a pivotable shaft, which acts on a arranged in the heel region of the skate deflection cam on a displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the skate and provided with brake shoes brake rod, so that the brake shoes are pressed in the direction against the rollers.
  • a roller skate is known in which the shaft of the skate is pivoted to the rear for braking, wherein a transmission member operatively connected to the shaft, which is connected to the brake device, pushes the brake device in the longitudinal direction of the skate forward, thereby facing each other Contact surfaces of the braking device are brought to the side walls of the rollers of the skate for conditioning.
  • the WO 00/50132 discloses a skate with a braking device in which a pivotable on the rear side of the skate and about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the skate pivoting control lever is pressed against a brake shoes provided with brake shoes, so that the rod thereby displaced in the longitudinal direction of the skate forward and Brake shoes are pressed against mounted on the rollers brake discs.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a roller skate of the generic type with a braking device in which only a small force of the driver must be applied to achieve a large braking effect, and has a simple structure.
  • the roller skate according to the invention such as a so-called in-line skate, has a shoe attached to a roller carrier and a number of rollers which are rotatably arranged one behind the other in the direction of travel on the roller carrier. Further, a slidable in the direction and against the running, elongated guide member is provided on which at least one brake shoe is arranged.
  • a guide element can be understood to be an element guided in a rail or the like.
  • an actuating member for moving the guide element is provided.
  • the actuator is located within the shoe and can be operated by the toes of a driver.
  • the guide element can be moved from a first position in which the rollers are freely rotatable in a second position in which the at least one brake shoe on one of Casters rests and slows them down.
  • a brake shoe can be provided on a first position in which the rollers are freely rotatable in a second position in which the at least one brake shoe on one of Casters rests and slows them down.
  • the invention is characterized in that the guide element can be displaced in the running direction into the second position, wherein the direction of movement is understood to mean the direction starting from the rear part towards the tip of the shoe.
  • the at least one brake shoe rests on the roller to be braked in such a way that the resulting friction force at least partially assists the displacement of the guide element in the direction of travel.
  • the frictional force thus causes the movement of the guide member in the second position, namely the Abbremsposition supported, so that the brake shoe is pressed even stronger against the roller.
  • the actuating member is designed as a lever pivotable about an axis.
  • the rotational movement of the lever and the translational movement of the guide element are combined in an advantageous manner.
  • the lever offers the advantage of simplifying the actuation movement, i. H. the lever must only be raised or depressed, ensures the translationally displaceable guide element a simple and forementionedsunan legien structure. By means of a reversing lever, the movement of the lever is transmitted to the guide element.
  • the lever also has a support plate for supporting all toes of the driver's foot, so that all toes are allowed to act on the lever to achieve a particularly high braking force.
  • the support plate can be arranged on the lever arm.
  • the lever arm itself is plate-shaped.
  • the at least one brake shoe in the running direction is in front of the roller to be braked is arranged.
  • the direction of travel is understood to mean the direction starting from the rear part towards the tip of the shoe.
  • the front arrangement in the direction of travel also includes, for example, brake shoes which are arranged above the rollers as long as the part of the brake shoes adjoining the rollers during the braking operation is arranged behind the roller axle.
  • the at least one brake shoe is arranged in such a way that, in the second position of the guide element, it bears at least partially on the rear, upper quarter of the roller to be braked in the running direction. In this way it is ensured that a partial force of the resulting frictional force acts in the running direction of the skate and thus supports the movement of the guide element in the second position.
  • the at least one brake shoe is preferably applied to the circumference of the roller to be braked.
  • an adjustable stop element is provided which abuts in the second position of the guide element. In this way, a further displacement of the guide element in the longitudinal direction is prevented.
  • This has the advantage that, depending on the setting of the stop element, a complete blockage of the roller to be braked can be prevented. Such blocking could z. B. occur when the frictional force is too large, so that the guide element and thus the brake shoe are moved too much in the direction.
  • the guide element is biased in a preferred embodiment of the roller skate according to the invention in the first position.
  • the bias is preferably by means of a spring.
  • Fig. 1 shows a side view of an embodiment of the roller skate according to the invention.
  • the skate has a shoe 2, at the sole 4 a roller carrier 6 is attached.
  • the roller carrier 6 surrounds laterally four rollers 8, 10, 12, 14, which are arranged one behind the other in the running direction.
  • the rollers 8, 10, 12, 14 are rotatably mounted on the roller carrier 6, wherein their axes are aligned transversely to the direction. Under the direction of travel is the direction starting from the rear part towards the tip of the shoe 2, as shown by the arrow A in FIG.
  • Fig. 2 shows a schematic side view of the roller skate of Fig. 1 in a sectional view.
  • the bottom wall 16 of the shoe 2 has a recess 18, wherein an actuating member 20 extends through the recess 18.
  • the actuator 20 is formed as a lever which is rotatably disposed about an axis 22 which extends parallel to the axes of the rollers 8, 10, 12, 14.
  • the actuator 20 has a first lever arm 24 extending into the shoe 2 and a second lever arm 26 extending below the sole 4 and coupled to a brake device.
  • the braking device is additionally shown enlarged in Fig. 4, wherein Fig. 4 shows a plan view of the section line B-B of Fig. 2.
  • the braking device comprises a guide rail 28 which extends in the direction of travel and is provided on the roller carrier 6 and on which a slot 30 extending in the running direction A and pointing downwards is provided.
  • a guide rail 28 which extends in the direction of travel and is provided on the roller carrier 6 and on which a slot 30 extending in the running direction A and pointing downwards is provided.
  • an elongated guide member 32 is guided, which can be translated translationally in the direction A and counter to the direction A.
  • two brake shoes 34 are arranged, which extend through the slot 30 into the region of the rollers 10 and 12, respectively.
  • the brake shoes 34 are arranged in the direction A in front of the rollers 10 and 12 respectively.
  • a lever 36 is provided which is rotatable about an axis 38 and on the one hand to the second lever arm 26 of the actuating member 20 and on the other hand into a recess 40 in on the engages in the directional end of the guide member 32.
  • the second Lever arm 26 of the actuator 20 has for this purpose a lug 42 which extends up to the lever 36.
  • a return spring 44 is fixed, the rear-facing end in turn is fastened to a closure member 46 closing the guide rail 28.
  • a screw-like stop member 48 is further screwed, which extends through the return spring 44 and an opening in the closure member 46, wherein it has a screw head 50 behind the closure member 46.
  • the stop element 48 can be adjusted in that it is screwed deeper into the guide member 32 and further unscrewed from the guide member 32.
  • the first lever arm 24 extending into the shoe 2 is formed in one piece with a support plate 52 or as a support plate 52.
  • the support plate 52 is formed so that all toes of the driver's foot (not shown) can exert a force on the lever arm 24 and thus participate in braking.
  • a corresponding recess 54 is provided in the bottom wall 4.
  • Fig. 2 the braking device is shown in non-actuated actuator 20, d. H. the guide member 32 is in a first position in which the brake shoes 34 are not present on the rollers 10, 12.
  • the operation of the braking device will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG.
  • roller skate according to the invention requires a lower actuating force for braking, will be explained below with reference to a parallelogram of forces in FIG.
  • Due to the abutment of the brake shoe 34 to the rotating in the direction of rotation C roller 12 results in a resulting frictional force, which is shown with reference to the arrow D.
  • the resulting friction force D can be divided into partial forces, namely a horizontal partial force E and a vertical partial force F, as shown by the arrows E and F in Fig. 3.
  • the partial force E acts in the direction of travel A, so that the displacement of the guide element 32 in the second position, namely the braking position, is supported. This means that the brake shoes 34 are pressed even stronger against the rollers 10 and 12, which increases the braking effect.
  • the stop element 48 is of great importance.
  • the screw head 50 of the stop element 48 abuts in the second position of the guide member 32 to the closure element 46 and prevents further displacement beyond the second position, which z. B. occur at a very large partial force E and can lead to a complete blockage of the rollers 10 and 12 and thus to a fall of the driver.
  • the wear on the brake shoes 34 can be compensated with a corresponding adjustment of the stop element 48.
