Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved skate, which is particularly suitable for the practice of so-called "aggressive" skating.
- skates used for this sports practice, comprise a frame which supports a plurality of in-line wheels and a sports shoe associated to the frame.
- the sports shoe comprises a rigid sole and a shell, which is usually connected to a cuff.
- the shell and the cuff surround an internal liner for accommodating the user's foot.
- the shell and the cuff are fitted with a pair of opposing flaps that may be fastened together through suitable fastening buckles arranged transversely to these flaps.
- a first shortcoming consists in that the walls of the shell and/or cuff are relatively thick, since their function is to ensure a satisfactory transmission of forces to the frame and, overall, ensure protection for the foot and the lower portion of the user's leg. This fact entails that the skate is often cumbersome, heavy and unattractive from the aesthetic point of view. This problem is worsened by the fact that the acrobatic sport activity causes damages to the outer surface of the skate, which thus shortly appears somewhat scratched and ruined. A further problem consists in that the plastic shell and/or cuff do not allow a satisfactory transpiration of the user's foot. This fact, combined with the relatively high sturdiness of the shell, implies that known skates are often uncomfortable and present high levels of internal moisture and temperature.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to an improved skate, which is particularly suitable for the practice of so-called "aggressive" skating.
- Nowadays, "aggressive" skating is quite known and widespread. Basically, this kind of sports practice consists of a series of acrobatics movements such as, for example, the so-called "grinding" (i.e. a crosswise passage along kerbs or handrails) or other stunt movements. Known skates, used for this sports practice, comprise a frame which supports a plurality of in-line wheels and a sports shoe associated to the frame. The sports shoe comprises a rigid sole and a shell, which is usually connected to a cuff. The shell and the cuff surround an internal liner for accommodating the user's foot. The shell and the cuff are fitted with a pair of opposing flaps that may be fastened together through suitable fastening buckles arranged transversely to these flaps.
- However, the skates of the known type suffer some drawbacks.
- A first shortcoming consists in that the walls of the shell and/or cuff are relatively thick, since their function is to ensure a satisfactory transmission of forces to the frame and, overall, ensure protection for the foot and the lower portion of the user's leg. This fact entails that the skate is often cumbersome, heavy and unattractive from the aesthetic point of view. This problem is worsened by the fact that the acrobatic sport activity causes damages to the outer surface of the skate, which thus shortly appears somewhat scratched and ruined. A further problem consists in that the plastic shell and/or cuff do not allow a satisfactory transpiration of the user's foot. This fact, combined with the relatively high sturdiness of the shell, implies that known skates are often uncomfortable and present high levels of internal moisture and temperature. Document
WO 99/43400 - Therefore, the aim of the present invention is to provide a skate, particularly suitable for "aggressive" sports practice, which ensures a suitable protection for the foot and the lower portion of the user's leg against impacts and other accidental events and which ensures, at the same time, a relatively high level of comfort for the user and a pleasing aesthetic appearance.
- Within this aim, an object of the present invention is to provide a skate which has reduced weight and overall size.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a skate which is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.
- Therefore, the present invention provides a skate, which comprises:
- a frame supporting a plurality of wheels; and

- Further characteristics and advantages of the skate, according to the present invention, will become better apparent from the following detailed description of some particular embodiments thereof, illustrated by way of non-limitative example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of the skate, according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of a detail of the skate, according to the present invention. - The skate, according to the present invention, will be described hereinafter with particular reference to its use in "aggressive" skating. This is only for sake of simplicity and it does not imply any limitation of the scope of the present invention. In fact, the present gliding device can be advantageously used without distinction in many other gliding sports such as traditional or speed skating, rolling and the like.

The sole 4 is in turn connected to thesports shoe 6. Preferably, the sole 4 is arranged so as to wrap around alower portion 61 of thesports shoe 2. Theplates plates - According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in
Figure 1 , the interconnection between theframe 2 and thesports shoe 6 is preferably accomplished by means of first screws (not illustrated), which are arranged with the head towards the ground and the shank towards thesports shoe 6. Such first screws pass advantageously through a pair of first holes 7a and 7b, made in theframe 2. Moreover, such first screws are arranged to pass throughsecond holes second holes respective toe plate 5a andheel plate 5b while the opening 9a and the third hole 9b are made at the bottom of the sole 4. The first screws are advantageously connected to counter-threaded first dead holes (not illustrated), which are provided at thebottom portion 61 of thesports shoe 6. According to the needs, such first dead holes may advantageously house counter-threaded bushes (not shown). The interconnection between theplates sports shoe 6 is also guaranteed by second screws (not shown), which are arranged to pass through theplates bottom portion 61 of thesports shoe 6, approximately around said first dead holes. - The
plates dowel pins 10, which are axially perforated to allow the passage of the second screws. Thedowel pins 10 project from the top of theplates sports shoe 6. Thedowel pins 10 may be positioned in counter-shapedfourth holes 11 made in the sole 4. In this manner, a more precise and stable interconnection of theplates sports shoe 6 is achieved. - The
sports shoe 6 comprises a soft upper 12, which is suitably connected at the bottom to the sole 4. The upper 12 is fitted with a first pair offlaps 13a and 13b on which a succession ofeyelets 14 are advantageously provided to allow the passage of afastening lace 15. The soft upper 12 is advantageously made of soft materials, such as fabric, leather or similar materials. The soft upper may be arranged to surround thebottom portion 61 of thesports shoe 6. In this case, it is provided with a plurality of fifth holes (not shown), which are suitable for allow the passage of said first screws and second screws (or the dowel pins 10). - The
sports shoe 6 comprises a rigid orsemi-rigid shell 16, which is advantageously open on the upper surface of the foot. Preferably, theshell 16 is removably connected internally to the soft upper 12. The sports shoe comprises advantageously acuff 17, suitable for supporting the lower leg of the user, in particular the calf region. Thecuff 17 is mounted on theshell 16. Theshell 16 is made of rigid or semi-rigid material, such as plastics, thereby permitting an excellent transmission of the forces to theframe 2 by the user. Thus, it can be adopted for fixing on a solid base said first screws and second screws. For this aim, the mentioned first dead holes and second dead holes can be provided at the bottom of theshell 16. - An
internal liner 18 is removably associated to theshell 16 and thecuff 17 for accommodating the user's foot, thereby guaranteeing an excellent comfort. Theliner 18 and thecuff 17 are preferably fitted respectively with a second pair of opposingflaps 19a and 19b and with a third pair of opposing flaps 20a and 20b. The second pair and the third pair of flaps are closable over each other once the skate 1 has been put on. To ensure excellent closure, at least one fastening buckle 21 is arranged transversely to thecuff 17. The soft upper 12 is preferably arranged to fully wrap around both theshell 16 and thecuff 17. In this manner, the soft upper 12 provides the skate 1 with an appealing appearance, which is equivalent to that offered by lightweight, traditional types of speeding skates. - Advantageously, the soft upper 12 is provided with a pair of strap ends 22a and 22b, which project at the front of the
sports shoe 6 from opposite sides, approximately close to the ends of the fastening buckle 21. The strap ends 22a and 22b are advantageously designed to fit over the buckle 21. Advantageously, they comprise interconnection means 25, which allow them to be temporarily joined together, thereby forming a covering and protective element for the fastening buckle 21, against wear, impacts and/or accidental openings. - To provide the upper 12 with an adequate protection against impact, friction or rubbing, one or more
rigid strips 23 are connected laterally to the soft upper 12. Thestrips 23 are suitably made of materials resistant to rubbing and provided with adequate thickness to project from the upper 12, thereby acting as a protection for the same. This means that theshell 16 and thecuff 17 may be suitably designed for ensuring a good transmission of forces only and not for having necessarily protection purposes. Therefore, the thickness of the walls of theshell 16 and thecuff 17 can be remarkably reduced and provided with suitable opening to allow a good transpiration of the user's foot, with consequent increase of comfort for the user. Thus, theshell 16 and thecuff 17 may even be reduced to an essential frame structure, provided with few supporting elements and having the sole purpose of transmitting forces to theframe 2. - The user can put on the skate 1, according to the present invention, very easily.
- Operation is as follows: the user, by opening the
straps 22a and 22b and the fastening buckle 21, may pull apart the second pair offlaps 19a, 19b and the third pair of flaps 20a and 20b, thus being able to introduce the foot into thesports shoe 6. Thesports shoe 6 may subsequently be closed by means of the fastening buckle 21, acting near the instep, and also by means of thelace 15, passing through theeyelets 14 of the first pair offlaps 13a and 13b. The protection of the fastening buckle 21 may be guaranteed by positioning the strap ends 22a and 22b over it and fastening them together by way of the interconnection means 25. - It has thus been shown that the skate 1, according to the present invention, achieves the above aim and objects.
- In fact, the skate 1 is provided with a particularly sturdy structure, which makes it particularly suitable for aggressive skating. Nevertheless, the soft upper 12 provides the skate 1 with a pleasant appearance and it allows arranging the shell and/or cuff in order to permit a suitable transpiration level of the user's foot. Morever, the presence of the
liner 18 improves the comfort for the user. Thus, sport practice, particularly aggressive skating, can be accomplished with maximum effectiveness and in total safety and comfort for the user, with a skate 1, which is provided also with a relevant aestethic impact. - Finally, the structural simplicity of the skate 1, according to the present invention, allows it to be manufactured at relatively low time and costs.
