Definitions
- the present invention relates to a closure device, particularly for fastening flaps of a sports shoe.
- a first closure device of the type that includes a metallic plate, which is fixed to a first flap of the shoe and is provided with two wings on which a lever arm is pivoted transversely by means of a pivot.
- a connecting member is rotatably associated between the wings of the lever arm and has, at a free end, an engagement member for selective coupling to a rack that is rigidly coupled to a second flap of the shoe.
- lever arm By virtue of the lever arm, it is possible to achieve a high closure tension of the flaps of the shoe by applying a limited force to the lever arm, making such conventional closure device suitable for shoes subjected to intense stresses during use, such as for example ski boots or skates.
- a second type of conventional closure device for fastening the flaps of a quarter with overlapping flaps of a sports shoe is constituted by a band that wraps perimetrically around the quarter and is coupled thereto in an intermediate point thereof by means of a rivet.
- the band supports, at a first end, a ring, inside which the band is guided proximate to a second end thereof, which can be fastened to itself detachably by virtue of a temporary grip means, constituted for example by two layers of the material known by the Trademark "Velcro".
- This second type of conventional closure device is performed by pulling the second end of the band which, by virtue of the rivet, generates a force for fastening the two flaps that is approximately equal in intensity to the traction force applied by the user.
- the tension generated on the band which is approximately equal to the value of the traction applied to its second end in the portion comprised between the second end and the rivet, and approximately equal to twice this value in the portion comprised between the rivet and its first end, provides an additional contribution to the closing force of the two overlapping flaps, mainly due to the effect of the tangential friction between the band and the side wall of the cuff.
- the aim of the present invention is to solve the above cited technical problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the prior art, by providing a closure device that allows safe and reliable manual fastening of a first flap and a second flap of a sports shoe, so as to ensure the closure of shoes subjected to intense stresses during their use, such as for example ski boots or skates.
- an object of the invention is to provide a closure device that allows to achieve a high degree of fastening of two overlapping flaps by means of a safe and reliable manual fastening, which can be achieved by applying a low-intensity force on the part of the user.
- Another object is to provide a closure device that is constituted by a small number of components that are easy and cheap to manufacture.
- Another object is to provide a closure device that is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.
- a closure device particularly for fastening flaps of a sports shoe, characterized in that it comprises a first band, which wraps around a quarter of the shoe over a portion of its perimeter and is rigidly coupled thereto in an intermediate point, the first band supporting, at a first end, a first ring inside which a second band slides, the second band being rigidly coupled, at a first end, to the first band in a point that is comprised between the intermediate point and a guiding point of the first band on a second ring, and associated, at a second free end, at the second ring with which the first band is slidingly associated, the second free end of the first band being manually tensionable and fastenable selectively to itself in a removable manner by a temporary grip means.
- the reference numeral 1 designates a closure device according to the invention for fastening a first flap 2 and a second flap 3, which partially overlap, for example of a quarter 4 of a sports shoe 5, such as for example a ski boot or a roller skate, in-line skate or ice skate.
- the closure device 1 is constituted by a first band 6, which is made for example of a fabric that has high mechanical strength properties and wraps externally around the quarter 4 along at least one portion of its perimeter.
- the first band 6 can have, conveniently, an overall length that exceeds the overall external perimeter of the quarter 4, and is coupled rigidly thereto in an intermediate point 7 thereof by virtue of a connecting member, which is constituted for example by a rivet 8.
- the intermediate point 7 can be located in a region that lies closer to a first end 9 of the first band 6, which during use is arranged laterally to the quarter 4; by doing so, the rivet 8 affects the quarter at its rear region 4a, for example at the major axis of the approximately elliptical plan shape of the quarter 4.
- the intermediate point 7 can be arranged in a lateral region of the portion of the perimeter of the quarter 4 that is affected by the first band 6, which is approximately comprised between the first end 9 of the first band 6 and the front region 4b of the quarter 4, which is adjacent to the first flap 2 and the second flap 3.
- the intermediate point 7, therefore, increases its distance from the first end 9 of the first band 6 as it is placed further toward the front region 4b of the quarter 4.
- the first band 6 supports, at its first end 9, a first ring 10, made for example of metallic material or plastic material, inside which a second band 11, made of a material similar to the material of the first band 6, is guided slidingly.
- the second band 11 is rigidly coupled, at a first end 12, to the first band 6, and supports at a second end 13 a second ring 14, inside which the second end 15 of the first band 6 is guided.
- the second ring 14 preferably is smaller than the first ring 10, so that it can pass easily within the first ring.
- the first end 12 of the second band 11 is coupled rigidly to the first surface 16, which is internal because it is directed toward the first flap 2, of the first band 6, in a point that lies between the intermediate point 7, for rigid connection between the first band 6 and the quarter 4, and the guiding point of the first band inside the second ring 14.
- the connecting point between the first end 12 of the second band 11 and the first band 6 is arranged at the front region 4b of the quarter 4, in a region affected by the first flap 2 and the second flap 3.
- the second band 11 is thus interposed for a portion, which is adjacent to its first end 12, between the quarter 4 and the first band 6.
- the second band 11 surrounds externally the perimetric portion of the quarter 4 that is not affected by the first band 6 and is comprised between the guiding point of the first band inside the second ring 14 and the first ring 10, which is rigidly coupled to the first end 9 of the first band 6.
- the second band 11, which is guided at the first ring 10, thus has its second end 13 directed toward the outside of the cuff, like the second ring 14, so as to allow the guiding of the first band 6 toward the front region 4b of the quarter 4 through the second ring 14.
- a means for temporary grip which is constituted by a first layer 17, made for example of the material known by the Trademark "Velcro" and arranged on a portion of the second surface 18, which is directed away from the second band 11, of the first band 6, preferably approximately at the front region 4b of the quarter 4 when the device 1 is in the closed position, and by a second layer 19, which is made of the same material and is arranged on a portion of the second surface 18 of the first band 6 that is adjacent to the second end 15 of the latter.
- a first layer 17 made for example of the material known by the Trademark "Velcro" and arranged on a portion of the second surface 18, which is directed away from the second band 11, of the first band 6, preferably approximately at the front region 4b of the quarter 4 when the device 1 is in the closed position
- a second layer 19 which is made of the same material and is arranged on a portion of the second surface 18 of the first band 6 that is adjacent to the second end 15 of the latter.
- the second free end 15 of the first band 6 can therefore be tensioned manually by the user and can be fastened selectively onto itself in a removable manner by superimposing the first layer 17 and the second layer 19.
- the operation of the closure device with easier tensioning 1 entails that in order to allow the insertion of the foot and of the lower part of the leg of the user inside the sports shoe 5, the second end 15 of the first band 6 is extracted from the second ring 14, which can be made to slide, in turn, within the first ring 10, which is preferably larger, so as to disengage the second band 11 from the first ring.
- closure device 1 is arranged in a first position, also termed fully open position, which is shown in Figure 1; in this position, it is possible to move the two flaps 2 and 3 of the quarter 4 or of the cuff of the shoe 4 mutually apart, so as to facilitate the insertion of the user's foot.
- the second ring 14 can then be made to pass inside the first ring 10, which is preferably larger, so that the second band 11 is guided at the ring, as shown in Figure 2.
- the closure device 1 can be tensioned manually by the user by applying a traction force at the second end 15 of the first band 6; the stress induced by this force induces, inside the portion of the first band 6 that is comprised between its second end 15 and the rivet 8, a traction whose intensity is approximately equal to the intensity of the applied force.
- the second band 11 is actuated, at its second end 13, by a traction force whose intensity, as a first approximation, is deemed approximately equal to twice the force applied by the user to the second end 15 of the first band 6; this traction force is transmitted to the first band at the first end 12 of the second band, which is rigidly coupled to the first band 6.
- the first band 6 is therefore affected, in its portion comprised between the point where it is coupled rigidly to the first end 12 of the second band and the intermediate point for connection between the first band and the quarter 4, by a traction that is equal, as a first approximation, to approximately three times the force applied by the user to the second end 15, which is free, of the first band 6; this traction is then transmitted to the quarter 4 by the rivet 8 at the intermediate point 7.
- the portion of the first band 6 that is comprised between the intermediate point 7 and the first end 9 of the first band is instead affected by a traction which, as a first approximation, is deemed approximately equal to four times the force applied by the user to the second free end 15 of the first band 6; this traction acts on the rivet 8 in the opposite direction with respect to the traction that is present in the portion of the first band that is comprised between the intermediate point 7 and the connecting point between the first band and the first end of the second band.
- the total force accordingly applied to the rivet and thus transmitted to the quarter 4 or cuff of a sports shoe is, if one considers only the traction forces that act on the first and second bands, as a first approximation, approximately equal to the force applied by the user to the second end 15 of the first band 6.
- the first band is, as described above, affected internally by a traction that is equal to a few times the force applied externally by virtue of the force multiplying effect ensured by the presence of the second band 11; this traction, by being transmitted circumferentially to the quarter 4 by friction, thus increases the fastening force of the first and second flaps 2 and 3 of the quarter, which is therefore much higher than the force applied by the user to the second end of the first band.
- closure device with easier tensioning 1 is therefore particularly suitable in shoes for women or children, who would otherwise be unable to achieve on their own, a safe fastening of the shoe, capable of withstanding the stresses imposed by the use of the shoe.
- the closure device 1 is also suitable for use in competitive sports shoes, because it allows to achieve a high closure force.
- the temporary grip means must be capable of contrasting the tension applied to the second end 15 of the first band 6, which is much weaker than the tension that acts along the remaining portions of the first band.
- the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a device having been provided which allows safe and reliable manual fastening of a first flap and a second flap of a sports shoe, so as to ensure the closure of shoes subjected to intense stresses during their use, such as for example ski boots or skates.
- Another important object achieved by the invention is to allow safe and reliable manual fastening while requiring the application of a low-intensity force on the part of the user.
- Another important object achieved by the invention is that it is constituted by a small number of components that are easy and cheap to manufacture.
