Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sports shoe, such as for example a roller skate or ice skate.
  • Adjustable-size skates are currently commercially available which are usually constituted by a shell divided into a heel unit and a separate toe unit, which are slidingly associated along an axis that lies longitudinally to the shoe.
  • a supporting frame for an ice-skating blade or for a plurality of wheels is associated with the heel unit in a downward region.
  • the user can insert his foot within a soft innerboot that is accommodated inside the shell and can then fasten his foot inside the sports shoe by activating closure means arranged transversely to the shell or transversely to the two flaps of the soft innerboot.
  • Said soft innerboot further has means that are elastically deformable at least in a longitudinal direction in order to allow an elongation that is equal to the elongation of the shell.
  • the main drawback of this known type of sports shoe is the fact that a selected elongation of the shell, obtained by sliding the toe unit forward with respect to the heel unit, is often not matched by an equally effective elongation of the soft innerboot.
  • the elongation of the soft innerboot often must be achieved by inserting the foot in such innerboot, with consequent user discomfort.
  • Another important drawback consists in that due to manufacturing requirements the shell often does not surround the soft innerboot completely but does so only partially at the toe and heel.
  • the aim of the present invention is therefore to solve the noted technical problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the cited known art, by providing a sports shoe of adjustable size that allows the user to have at his disposal all the sizes planned during design.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe that is comfortable to wear regardless of the preset size.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe that allows to protect the soft innerboot against wear and any damage.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe that is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.
  • a sports shoe comprising a semirigid shell divided into a heel unit and a separate toe unit, which are slidingly associated, and a soft innerboot that can be accommodated in said shell, characterized in that it comprises means for detachable interconnection between said soft innerboot and an element for at least partial covering and/or fastening of said soft innerboot, said element being associated with said toe unit and protruding therefrom.
  • the numeral 1 designates a sports shoe, such as for example a roller skate, with four wheels 2 arranged in line.
  • Said wheels 2 are associated, by way of mechanical means 3 of a known type, with a supporting frame 4 whose transverse cross-section is arch-shaped, i.e. is like an inverted U.
  • the wheels 2 are associated between the downward-pointing wings of the frame 4.
  • a box-like heel unit designated by the reference numeral 5, is associated above the rear portion of said frame 4 and is open at the front and top.
  • the frame 4 has, in an upward region, guides 6 for the longitudinal sliding of a toe unit 7, from the lower surface of which, not shown, an edge 7a protrudes laterally and frontally and is designed to contain the foot of the user.
  • the toe unit 7 and the heel unit 5 constitute a shell, generally designated by the reference numeral 8, that is advantageously made of semirigid material and is adapted to contain a soft innerboot 9 for accommodating the foot of the user.
  • the soft innerboot 9 can be associated with the heel unit 5 advantageously by further interlocking means.
  • interlocking means are associated laterally with the soft innerboot 9, approximately to the rear of the malleolar region, and comprise at least a pair of rigid cleats 10, only one of which is shown in the figures.
  • Said cleats 10 can be arranged within complementarily shaped openings 11 formed in the heel unit 5, so as to ensure mutual locking once the foot has been inserted in the skate.
  • the sports shoe 1 further comprises detachable interconnection means, designated by the reference numeral 12, for interconnection between the soft innerboot 9 and an element for the at least partial covering and/or fastening of said soft innerboot 9, such as for example a sheath or overshoe 13.
  • Said overshoe 13 is associated with the toe unit 7 at its front region and has two lateral flaps, respectively designated by the reference numerals 14a and 14b, that protrude to the rear of said toe unit 7 toward the heel unit 5.
  • said pair of flaps 14a and 14b affects or are adapted to enclose the soft innerboot 9 laterally, interposing itself partially between said innerboot and the sides of the heel unit 5.
  • said detachable interconnection means 12 are advantageously constituted by a tongue 15 that protrudes from the innerboot 9 approximately proximate to the toe region, can be arranged through a slot 16 formed transversely in the overshoe 13 and is provided with engagement means, designated by the reference numerals 17a and 17b, for engagement with said soft innerboot 9.
  • the engagement means 17a and 17b can be constituted advantageously for example by a press-stud.
  • the overshoe 13 can comprise fastening means for fastening the shoe 1 around the user's foot, such as for example laces 18 guided between the flaps 14a and 14b of the overshoe 13.
  • the sports shoe according to the invention moreover, is very comfortable regardless of the preset size, since the soft innerboot is deformed by the necessary extent before foot insertion.
  • the overshoe preserves the soft innerboot from wear and any damage, since it covers the lower part of said innerboot, i.e., the part that is particularly subjected to contacts with the ground or with other objects.
  • the sports shoe finally, is very simple from the structural standpoint and therefore has low manufacturing costs.
