Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shoe for sports activities in which apparatus for sliding on the ground are used.
  • the invention is intended for a ski-boot, to which reference will be made henceforth by way of example.
  • ski-boots generally have a rigid shell inside which the foot is accommodated and a leg-piece which is articulated on the shell and which surrounds and extends above the ankle.
  • the articulation between shell and leg-piece (or, technically speaking, "ski-walk articulation") allows the forwards/backwards inclination of the latter with respect to the former, about a pivoting axis which passes approximately in the region of and along the ankle joint.
  • the leg-piece is provided with means for temporary fastening to the shell so as to be able to be both locked with the shell during skiing in a position inclined forwards and released during walking, this favouring and facilitating the movement of the ankle.
  • ski-walk articulation is clearly to allow the boot to be adapted to two different operating conditions - skiing and walking - which require a different configuration for the boot.
  • the leg-piece has a rear "spoiler" associated with it in order to increase the support for the calf against the boot.
  • the spoiler is removable or can be fixed on the leg-piece in two or three positions, but requires a long and difficult manual operation.
  • the spoiler can be inclined, as desired, with respect to the leg-piece. The function, in these cases, is to allow the skier to adapt the height of the spoiler on the calf: a greater height during skiing, for greater control, a smaller height during walking, for greater freedom of movement.
  • the real comfort of the spoiler is a problem. Whether the spoiler be fixed, removable or displaceable, it cannot be adapted quickly to the conditions of use, because it is required to adjust the boot by means of long and awkward operations.
  • the main object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe which has a spoiler which can be adapted to the actual operating condition in a simple and quick manner.
  • a shoe for sports activities using sliding apparatus comprising a shell, a leg-piece, a support spoiler for the calf mounted so as to be displaceable with respect to the leg-piece, characterized in that it comprises linear displacement means for displacing linearly the spoiler relative to the leg-piece between two positions of maximum and minimum projection therefrom.
  • the invention provides a shoe which is very comfortable and safe.
  • the displacement means comprise a lever member which is hinged both with the shoe and with a connecting-rod piece connected to the spoiler so that displacement of the lever member between two limit positions produces a corresponding linear displacement of the spoiler between the two positions of maximum and minimum projection from the leg piece.
  • the lever member is hinged at one end on the leg-piece and in such a way as to perform a rotation with a free end inside a longitudinal (preferably centre) plane of the shoe.
  • the lever member is arranged in a position which is accessible for the skier and at the same time protected, as well as requiring a very easy movement to be performed by the skier.
  • the free end of the lever member has a projection which, with said rotation, can be inserted in a complementary way inside a seat formed in the shell so as to lock the leg-piece and the shell together.
  • This advantage of the invention is considerable: in addition to modifying the position of the spoiler, the leg-piece engages and disengages at the same time with/from the shell, performing with the same device two important functions, resulting in benefits in terms of efficiency and comfort.
  • the leg-piece is provided with an opening which can be arranged over a seat formed in the shell so that said projection is able to pass through the opening and the seat so as to lock together the leg-piece and the shell. Therefore, a mutual locking mechanism is achieved in a simple manner.
  • the shoe comprises resilient means for recalling the lever member, or in general the functional part or parts of the displacement means, into its/their two limit positions. This results in greater safety of the boot and in particular ease of use.
  • the shoe comprises locking means for locking the lever member, or in general the functional part or parts of the displacement means, in at least one of the two limit positions. This results in greater safety of the boot.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a first embodiment of a boot 10 according to the invention. It is composed of a shell 12, which is partly shown, and a leg-piece 14 articulated with the shell 12 using known techniques so as to pivot about an axis X approximately coinciding with the axis of articulation of the ankle.
  • Fig. 2 shows the displacement of the leg-piece 14 between two end positions, in one of which it is shown in broken lines for comparison.
  • the leg-piece 14 has, associated with it, a lug 20 (or spoiler) guided so as to slide vertically along a directrix Y between two positions, i.e. an extracted position ( Fig. 1 ) and a retracted position ( Fig. 2 ), where the free end of the spoiler 20 is raised from the top edge of the leg-piece 14 by a minimum amount D min , more or less equal to zero (see Fig. 2 ), and a maximum position D max (see Fig. 1 ), respectively.
  • a minimum amount D min more or less equal to zero
  • D max see Fig. 1
  • the spoiler 20 has an elongated shape in the form of a hook towards the top and comprises a step 21 against which one end of a spring 22 bears, its other end bearing against a step 23 formed inside the leg-piece 14. In this way the spring 22 remains seated between the spoiler 22 and the leg-piece 14 and presses against the two steps 21, 23.
  • the bottom end of the spoiler 20 opposite to the free end is pivotably hinged by means of a pin 30 on one end of a connecting-rod piece 28 with a curved L shape in turn pivotably hinged at its opposite end by means of a pin 32 on a rounded head 25b of a vertically pivoting lever 24.
  • the lever 24 is curved at one end 25a opposite to the head 25b, while with the head 25b it is rotatably hinged on the leg-piece 14 by means of a pin 26 so as to be able to rotate about it (see trajectory F in Fig. 2 ).
  • the shell 12 has at the rear a recessed seat 34, in the bottom of which a plate 36 with a hole 37 is arranged (cf. Figs. 1 and 2 ).
  • the arrangement and the relative dimensions of the lever 24, the pin 26, the plate 36 and its hole 37 are such that, when the lever 24 is completely lowered ( Fig. 1 ), its curved end 25a is inserted inside the seat 34 and in particular is inserted inside the hole 37 which has matching dimensions.
  • the shell 12 has a recess 38 with a substantially semi-circular bottom and of suitable size for allowing unimpeded rotation of the head 25b about the pin 26.
  • the bottom of the recess 38 has a slit for allowing the connecting-rod piece 28 to pass through it and thus be able to move inside the leg-piece 14.
  • Fig. 2 the boot 10 is shown in the walking position, i.e. with the spoiler 20 retracted and the leg-piece 14 disengaged from the shell 12.
  • the lever 24 is raised and by means of the connecting-rod piece 28 keeps the spoiler 20 lowered, also owing to the expansive force of the spring 22 which opposes any slight accidental lowering of the lever 24.
  • the spoiler 20 causes minimum obstruction for the skier's leg, while the freedom of pivoting movement of the leg-piece facilitates walking.
  • Figures 3 to 10 show a second embodiment of part of a boot 110 (partially shown for the sake of simplicity). It is composed of a shell 112 and a leg-piece 114 (only the central rear part of which is shown) articulated on the shell 112. A vertically movable spoiler 120 is associated with the leg-piece 114.
  • the spoiler 120 has an elongated form and its bottom end, opposite to the free end, is integral with two parallel segments 128a, 128b of a connecting-rod piece 128.
  • Each arm 128a, 128b has a shape which is curved towards the outside of the boot 120 - approximately in the manner of a "J" - and has (see Figs. 7 and 9 ) an end portion 129a, 129b which is curved laterally and rotatably engaged inside a corresponding hole in a rounded head 125b of a lever 124.
  • the head 125b of the lever 124 is housed inside a cavity 150 formed in the leg-piece 114 and is rotatably hinged with it by means of a horizontal pin 126: the lever 124 may therefore pivot vertically (see arrow F in Figs. 8 and 10 ). At the opposite end to the hinged end, the lever 124 is free and has a curved portion 125a.
  • the shell 112 has at the rear a recessed seat 134 (see Figs. 4 and 8 ).
  • the arrangement and the relative dimensions of the lever 124, the pin 126 and the seat 134 are such that, when the lever 124 is completely lowered (see Figures 3 to 6 ), its curved end 125a reaches and engages inside the seat 134.
  • a plate with a hole, similar to the previous plate 36, may be inserted inside the seat 134.
  • a spring 122 is arranged between the two segments 128a, 128b of the connecting-rod piece 128 and is fixed, at one end, to a horizontal pin 160 integral with the head 125b and, at the other end, to a horizontal pin 162 situated at the top of the cavity 150 and integral with the leg-piece 114.
  • FIGs. 7-10 show the boot 110 in the walking position (spoiler 120 retracted and leg-piece 114 released from the shell 112).
  • the lever 124 is raised and, by means of the connecting-rod piece 128, keeps the spoiler 120 lowered.
  • the spring 122 is in a constantly tensioned state and keeps the lever in the open position (as previously) owing to the favourable geometric arrangement of the lever arm consisting of the section between the pin 126 and the pin 160, which is also a fulcrum. This lever arm allows the force of the spring 122 to be used in order to support the lever 124.
  • the spring 122 shortens slightly, but remains under tension and pulls the pin 126 upwards, thereby keeping the lever 124 lowered.
  • FIGS 11 to 13 show a third embodiment of a boot 210 according to the invention. It is composed of a shell 212 and a leg-piece 214 articulated with it (only the rear part being shown).
  • the leg-piece 214 has, associated with it, a spoiler 220 which is movable vertically (direction Y), with an elongated shape, having a bottom end, opposite the free end, pivotably hinged by means of a pin 229 with a connecting-rod piece 228.
  • the connecting-rod piece 228 has a shape which is slightly curved towards the outside of the boot 220 (divided into two non-aligned segments) and is hinged by means of a pin 232 on a rounded head 225b of a vertically pivoting lever 224.
  • the lever 224 is curved at one end 225a, opposite the head 225b, where it has a locking tooth 280.
  • the end 225b is hinged rotatably with the leg-piece 214 by means of a pin 226, so as to be able to rotate about it (see trajectory F in Fig. 11 ).
  • the shell 212 has at the rear a recessed seat 234, with dimensions corresponding to the locking tooth 280, having, arranged above it, a plate 270 with a hole 272 coaxial with the seat 234.
  • the leg-piece 214 in its bottom rear part, has a hole 282, the position of which is such as to coincide with the underlying seat 234 when the leg-piece 214 is in the skiing position and fully inclined towards the toe of the boot 210.
  • the arrangement and relative dimensions of the lever 224, the pin 226 and the seat 234 are such that, when the level 224 is fully lowered ( Figs. 11 and 13 ), the tooth 280 is able to engage inside the seat 234 via the hole 282.
  • the shell 212 has a recess 238 with a substantially semi-circular bottom and of suitable size for allowing unimpeded rotation of the head 225b about the pin 226.
  • the bottom of the recess 238 has a slit for allowing the connecting piece 228 to pass through it and thus be able to move inside the leg-piece 214.
  • a horizontal pin 287 is situated at one end of the recess 238.
  • a characteristic feature of this variant is the presence, on the lever 224, of a safety pushbutton 290 in the form of a V-shaped hook 290 (see Fig. 13 ) which is rotatably hinged with a pin 292 inside a longitudinal through-slit 296 formed in the body of the lever 224.
  • the pushbutton 290 has at one end a hooked locking tooth 297 and at the other end a knurled operating surface 298.
  • a spiral spring (not shown) is mounted around the pin 292 and pushes the tooth 297 of the pushbutton 290 so that it is always in the position engaged with the pin 287.
  • Fig. 12 shows the boot 210 in the walking position, i.e. with the spoiler 220 retracted and the leg-piece 214 released from the shell 212.
  • the lever 224 is raised and keeps the spoiler lowered by means of the connecting-rod piece 228.
  • leg-piece 224 When the skier decides to ski, he/she inclines the leg-piece 224 forwards (position shown in broken lines in Fig. 12 ) and lowers the lever 224 ( Figs. 11 and 13 ) until the tooth penetrates inside the seat 234 through the hole 282, securing the leg-piece 214 to the shell 212. At the same time the head 225b of the lever 224 is rotated through approximately 140° about the pin 226 (displacement indicated by the arrow F in Fig. 12 ), raising the connecting-rod piece 228 which raises the spoiler 220.
  • a particular advantage of the invention is the fact of having a safety pushbutton in the lever 224, which is important in all those situations (extreme skiing) where it is desirable to prevent an accidental event from being able to open inadvertently the lever 224, thereby exposing the skier to the risk of injury.
  • the pushbutton or a locking mechanism may obviously also be mounted in the other two variants.
  • the parts described in the variants may clearly be formed separately or in combination, for example with the use or otherwise of resilient recall means for the lever part, the formation of two holes in the leg-piece and shell which can be arranged over each other, etc.
