Abstract

The shoe (1) has a sole (10) internally comprising an insert (2) with a cavity (31) opened on lower surface of the sole to tightly accommodate a removable module (4) that is maintained by wedging. The insert includes side tabs (32) extending on both sides of the cavity. Notches that form a cradle are formed in the elements. The removable module includes lateral lugs designed to abut in one of the notches that constitutes penetration depth stops so that a surface of the removable module remains exposed to a plane of the sole.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet dans le domaine de la chaussure, une chaussure tout terrain.The present invention relates in the field of footwear, an all-terrain shoe.

De manière habituelle sur une chaussure c'est la semelle qui assure la liaison avec le sol, et le niveau d'adhérence au sol dépend étroitement du matériau dont est faite ladite semelle, et de la nature du sol, qui peut être par exemple du bois, de la pierre, des matériaux plastiques, des résines, du ciment peint etc.In the usual way on a shoe is the sole that ensures the connection with the ground, and the level of adhesion to the ground depends closely on the material of which said sole is made, and the nature of the ground, which can be for example the wood, stone, plastic materials, resins, painted cement etc.

D'autre part, les conditions d'adhérence dépendent souvent des conditions climatiques. Ainsi, par exemple, des semelles en matières plastiques peuvent être parfaitement adhérentes sur certains sols lorsque ces derniers sont secs, mais générer des glissades lorsque lesdits sols sont mouillés.On the other hand, the conditions of adhesion often depend on the climatic conditions. Thus, for example, plastic soles may be perfectly adherent on some soils when they are dry, but generate slips when said soils are wet.

Par ailleurs dans le cas d'un sol gelé, si certaines semelles en caoutchouc permettent de moins glisser que d'autres, elles ne sont pas entièrement fiables, pas aussi fiables que des crampons métalliques par exemple.Moreover, in the case of a frozen ground, if some rubber soles allow to slide less than others, they are not entirely reliable, not as reliable as metal cleats for example.

Il existe ainsi pour chaque type de sol, une ou plusieurs matières susceptibles d'assurer un bon niveau d'adhérence. Cependant, il n'est pas possible de changer de chaussure à chaque fois que la nature du sol change, et ou que les conditions climatiques changent.There is thus for each type of soil, one or more materials that can ensure a good level of adhesion. However, it is not possible to change shoes every time the nature of the soil changes, and or that climatic conditions change.

Pour pallier ces inconvénients on a déjà proposer divers dispositifs notamment celui des documents FR 2 076 475 et US 2 920 403 , et qui comprend une plaque de métal disposée dans l'espace vide en avant du talon de la chaussure, et montée mobile en pivotement en sorte de pour prendre deux positions, l'une rétractée dans ledit espace vide, l'autre déployée en sorte qu'une partie de celle-ci déborde le plan de contact de la semelle avec le sol en sorte de constituer une zone d'accrochage.To overcome these drawbacks we have already proposed various devices including that of documents FR 2 076 475 and US 2,920,403 , and which comprises a metal plate disposed in the empty space in front of the heel of the boot, and mounted pivotally movable so as to take two positions, one retracted into said empty space, the other deployed so that part of it exceeds the contact plane of the sole with the ground so as to form a hooking zone.

Dans le document FR 2 495 448 , un dispositif similaire est agencé dans des cavités créées dans la semelle et dans le talon d'une chaussure.In the document FR 2,495,448 a similar device is arranged in cavities created in the sole and in the heel of a shoe.

On connaît également par le document EP 0 078 913 un dispositif de coque destiné à être enfilé par-dessus la chaussure et comprenant inférieurement des crampons permettant d'assurer une fonction d'antidérapage.It is also known from the document EP 0 078 913 a hull device adapted to be threaded over the boot and comprising inferiorly crampons for providing an anti-slip function.

On connaît également par le document FR 2 788 414 une chaussure renfermant un mécanisme permettant de faire saillir du talon, au travers de moyens moteurs, des dents permettant de transformer la chaussure en chaussure à crampons.It is also known from the document FR 2 788 414 a shoe containing a mechanism for protruding from the heel, through motor means, teeth to transform the shoe into a cleated shoe.

Ces dispositifs, outre leur conception complexe, sont chacun limités dans leur utilisation à un type de sol, et essentiellement à un sol verglacé.These devices, in addition to their complex design, are each limited in their use to a type of soil, and essentially to icy ground.

On connaît également par le document CA 2 573 740 une chaussure dont la semelle comporte des reliefs présentant des cavités rétentrices, aptes à accueillir des éléments amovibles munis d'éléments aptes à faire saillie du plan de la semelle. Une telle chaussure présente l'inconvénient qu'au gré de l'usure de la semelle, les cavités rétentrices deviennent inopérantes.It is also known from the document CA 2,573,740 a shoe whose sole comprises reliefs having retentive cavities, adapted to accommodate removable elements provided with elements capable of projecting from the plane of the sole. Such a shoe has the disadvantage that, depending on the wear of the sole, the retentive cavities become inoperative.

On connaît également par les documents FR 2 831 030 et CA 2 573 740 des chaussures sur la semelle desquelles est rapporté un élément comportant des reliefs susceptibles de constituer un moyen d'accrochage. Cet élément rapporté prend place dans une cavité ménagée dans la semelle, et est fixé, au travers d'une extension qui est rabattue sur au moins un bord latéral de la chaussure ou de la tige, ou bien engagé dans une cavité que créent les reliefs de la semelle. Outre le défaut esthétique dû aux fixations latérales, ces chaussures présentent l'inconvénient, là encore, que l'usure des semelles peut rendre inopérants les moyens de fixation des éléments rapportés.It is also known from the documents FR 2,831,030 and CA 2,573,740 shoes on the sole of which is reported an element having reliefs likely to be a means of attachment. This insert is placed in a cavity in the sole, and is fixed, through an extension which is folded over at least one side edge of the shoe or the rod, or engaged in a cavity that creates the reliefs of the sole. In addition to the aesthetic defect due to the lateral fasteners, these shoes have the disadvantage, again, that the wear of the soles may render inoperative the attachment means of the inserts.

On notera d'ailleurs, qu'on a pu constater que l'utilisation de certaines de ces chaussures ou de ces dispositifs est susceptible, du fait de la surépaisseur que cela crée sous la semelle, de modifier le centre de gravité de l'utilisateur, ce qui peut générer des troubles physiques, au niveau du dos et/ou des pieds.Note also that it has been found that the use of some of these shoes or devices is likely, because of the extra thickness that creates under the sole, to change the user's center of gravity , which can cause physical disorders, in the back and / or feet.

On connaît également par le document FR 2 278 508 , une chaussure dont la semelle et/ou dans le talon comporte un logement destiné à recevoir un élément réversible, lequel comprend une face inactive pourvue d'un revêtement correspondant à celui de la semelle ou du talon de la chaussure, et une face active opposée, pourvue de moyens antidérapants tels que des picots par exemple. Dans ce documents, l'élément réversible est assujetti à la chaussure selon deux versions, dans la première il est vissé dans une cavité, dans la seconde il est inséré par coulissement, dans le deux cas la chaussure comporte de plus des moyens d'immobilisation et de verrouillage de l'élément réversible dans la cavité, qui peuvent consister en une vis enfoncée transversalement dans le talon depuis l'extérieur et engagée dans l'insert.It is also known from the document FR 2,278,508 , a shoe whose sole and / or in the heel has a housing for receiving a reversible element, which comprises an inactive face provided with a coating corresponding to that of the sole or heel of the shoe, and an opposite active face, provided with non-slip means such as pins for example. In this document, the reversible element is subject to the shoe in two versions, in the first it is screwed into a cavity, in the second it is inserted by sliding, in both cases the shoe further comprises immobilization means and locking the reversible element in the cavity, which may consist of a screw driven transversely into the heel from the outside and engaged in the insert.

La chaussure objet de ce document présente des inconvénients qui la rendent inefficace. En effet, la cavité étant d'une profondeur supérieure à celle de l'épaisseur de l'élément réversible, et puisqu'il n'y pas de réglage de la profondeur d'insertion par vissage de l'élément réversible, en position active les picots sont forcément affleurants à la semelle ou au talon, et sont donc inefficaces.The shoe object of this document has disadvantages that make it ineffective. Indeed, the cavity being of a depth greater than that of the thickness of the reversible element, and since there is no adjustment of the insertion depth by screwing the reversible element, in active position the pins are necessarily flush with the sole or heel, and are therefore ineffective.

Cet inconvénient n'apparaît pas dans le cas d'une insertion par coulissement, par contre une telle architecture nécessite une grande rigidité de la partie réceptrice, qui nuit au confort du porteur.This disadvantage does not appear in the case of insertion by sliding, against such an architecture requires a high rigidity of the receiving part, which affects the comfort of the wearer.

La présente invention a pour but de proposer une chaussure tout terrain permettant de remédier aux divers inconvénients précités.The present invention aims to provide an all-terrain shoe to overcome the various aforementioned drawbacks.

La chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention comporte au moins une cavité ouverte sur la face inférieure de la semelle, destinée à accueillir un module amovible qui comporte au moins une partie dont une surface est munie de moyens présentant des caractéristiques d'adhérence adaptées à la nature du sol, et il se caractérise essentiellement en ce que ladite semelle comporte intérieurement au moins un insert comprenant ladite cavité ouverte sur la face inférieure de ladite semelle, et qui est destiné à loger étroitement ledit module amovible qui y est maintenu par coincement; en ce que ledit insert comprend deux éléments latéraux s'étendant de part et d'autre de ladite cavité, dans chacun desquels est pratiquée une échancrure formant berceau; et en ce que ledit module comporte deux ergots latéraux conçus aptes à chacun venir en appui dans l'une desdites échancrures qui constituent des butées de profondeur d'enfoncement, en sorte que la surface dudit module amovible demeure affleurante au plan de ladite semelle.The all-terrain shoe according to the invention comprises at least one cavity open on the underside of the soleplate, intended to accommodate a removable module which comprises at least one part whose surface is provided with means having adhesion characteristics adapted to the nature of the soil, and it is characterized essentially in that said sole has internally at least one insert comprising said cavity open on the underside of said sole, and which is intended to fit tightly said removable module which is held there by wedging; in that said insert comprises two lateral elements extending on either side of said cavity, in each of which is formed a recess forming a cradle; and in that said module comprises two lateral lugs designed adapted to each abut in one of said notches which constitute abutments depth of depression, so that the surface of said removable module remains flush with the plane of said sole.

Le module est prévu pour être remplacé à volonté en fonction de la nature et/ou de la qualité du sol sur lequel l'utilisateur doit se déplacer.The module is intended to be replaced at will depending on the nature and / or the quality of the soil on which the user must move.

La partie visible du module est disposée dans le même plan que le reste de la semelle, mais la nature du matériau dont elle est faite permet d'assurer une certaine adhérence. Le fait que cette partie visible du module soit dans le même plan que le reste de la semelle, permet qu'il n'y ait aucune incidence sur le centre de gravité de l'utilisateur.The visible part of the module is arranged in the same plane as the rest of the sole, but the nature of the material of which it is made ensures a certain adhesion. The fact that this visible part of the module is in the same plane as the rest of the soleplate, allows that there is no impact on the user's center of gravity.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, l'insert comprend une platine s'étendant longitudinalement et parallèlement au plan général de la chaussure.According to an additional feature of the all terrain shoe according to the invention, the insert comprises a plate extending longitudinally and parallel to the general plane of the shoe.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, les échancrures que comportent les éléments latéraux présentent une forme rétentrice pour les ergots, en sorte de permettre d'y encliqueter ces derniers.According to another additional characteristic of the cross-country shoe according to the invention, the indentations that comprise the lateral elements have a retentive shape for the lugs, so as to allow them to snap into them.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, le module amovible est conçu en deux pièces, une première pièce conformée aux dimensions de la cavité et destinée à y être insérée et maintenue par coincement, et une seconde pièce recouvrant une face de ladite première pièce et destinée à constituer la partie visible affleurant le plan de la semelle.According to another additional feature of the all-terrain shoe according to the invention, the removable module is designed in two parts, a first piece shaped to the dimensions of the cavity and intended to be inserted and held by wedging, and a second piece covering a face of said first piece and intended to form the visible portion flush with the plane of the sole.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, la seconde pièce est plus large de la première, en sorte de présenter des extensions latérales qui recouvrent la jonction entre le module et l'insert.According to another additional feature of the all terrain shoe according to the invention, the second piece is wider than the first, so as to have extensions side which cover the junction between the module and the insert.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, la seconde pièce présente sur sa face visible des éléments qui en font saillie.According to another additional feature of the all-terrain shoe according to the invention, the second piece has on its visible face elements that project.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, les éléments qui font saillie de la face visible consistent en des crampons en caoutchouc ou en élastomère.According to a particular embodiment of the all terrain shoe according to the invention, the elements which project from the visible face consist of rubber or elastomer cleats.

Les crampons en caoutchouc ou en élastomère débordent le plan de la partie visible et donc de la semelle, mais cette configuration est destinée aux terrains souples, dans lesquels les crampons peuvent pénétrer aisément, sans incidence sur le centre de gravité de l'utilisateur.The rubber or elastomer studs extend beyond the plane of the visible part and therefore of the sole, but this configuration is intended for soft terrain, in which the crampons can penetrate easily, without affecting the user's center of gravity.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation particulier de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, les éléments qui font saillie de la face visible consistent en des crampons en métal.According to another particular embodiment of the all terrain shoe according to the invention, the elements that project from the visible side consist of metal studs.

Ces crampons en métal sont très courts, de l'ordre du millimètre, et ils sont suffisants à permettre de pénétrer dans de la glace.These metal cleats are very short, of the order of a millimeter, and they are sufficient to allow penetration into ice.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation particulier de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, l'insert est disposé intérieurement au talon de la semelle.According to another particular embodiment of the all terrain shoe according to the invention, the insert is disposed internally at the heel of the sole.

Les avantages et les caractéristiques de la chaussure tout terrain selon l'invention, ressortiront plus clairement de la description qui suit et qui se rapporte au dessin annexé, lequel en représente plusieurs modes de réalisation non limitatifs.The advantages and characteristics of the all terrain shoe according to the invention will become more clearly apparent from the description which follows and which refers to the appended drawing, which represents several non-limiting embodiments thereof.

En référence à la figure 1, on peut voir une chaussure tout terrain 1 selon l'invention dont la semelle 10, et plus particulièrement le talon 11, renferme un insert 2.With reference to the figure 1 , one can see an all terrain shoe 1 according to the invention, the sole 10, and more particularly the heel 11, contains an insert 2.

On notera que la description qui suit est limitée à une chaussure comprenant un insert dans le talon, mais il est parfaitement possible que l'insert soit placé dans la partie avant de la semelle, ou bien que cette partie avant de la semelle et le talon comportent chacun un insert.Note that the description which follows is limited to a shoe comprising an insert in the heel, but it is perfectly possible that the insert is placed in the front part of the sole, or that this front part of the sole and the heel each comprise an insert.

En référence aux figures 2, 3 et 4, on peut voir que l'insert 2 comprend deux éléments, à savoir un support 3 et un module amovible 4.With reference to Figures 2, 3 and 4 it can be seen that the insert 2 comprises two elements, namely a support 3 and a removable module 4.

Le support 3, qui est noyé dans la matière dont sont faits le talon 11 et la semelle 10, comprend essentiellement une platine 30 sensiblement plate, disposée parallèlement au plan général de la semelle 10. Le support 3 délimite avec le talon 11 une cavité 31 destinée à recevoir le module amovible 4.The support 3, which is embedded in the material of which the heel 11 and the sole 10 are made, essentially comprises a substantially flat plate 30, arranged parallel to the general plane of the sole 10. The support 3 delimits with the heel 11 a cavity 31 intended to receive the removable module 4.

Le support 3 est réalisé dans un matériau rigide ou semi-rigide, plus dur que celui dont sont faits le talon 11 et la semelle 10. Il est destiné à garantir les dimensions de la cavité 31, et notamment dans le sens de la profondeur.The support 3 is made of a rigid or semi-rigid material, harder than that of which are made the heel 11 and the sole 10. It is intended to ensure the dimensions of the cavity 31, and in particular in the direction of the depth.

On notera que la cavité 31 pourrait être délimitée uniquement par le support 3, avec cependant l'inconvénient de perdre une partie de la souplesse conférée par le matériau dont est fait le talon 11.It will be noted that the cavity 31 could be delimited solely by the support 3, with the disadvantage of losing part of the flexibility conferred by the material of which the heel 11 is made.

Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le support 3 comporte deux pattes latérales 32 qui font saillie de la platine 30 pour constituer une partie de la paroi délimitant la cavité 31, et sur lesquelles vient s'adapter le module 4.In the embodiment shown, the support 3 comprises two lateral tabs 32 which project from the plate 30 to constitute a part of the wall delimiting the cavity 31, and on which the module 4 is fitted.

Le module 4 comprend un corps 40 adaptable au support 3 et destiné à prendre place dans la cavité 31, et dont une face est recouverte fixement d'une pièce 41The module 4 comprises a body 40 adaptable to the support 3 and intended to take place in the cavity 31, and whose face is fixedly covered with a part 41

Le corps 40 se présente sous la forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle aux dimensions transversales correspondant à celles de la cavité 31, en sorte de pouvoir y être introduit axialement.The body 40 is in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped with transverse dimensions corresponding to those of the cavity 31, so as to be introduced axially.

Le corps 40 comporte sur chacune de ses deux faces opposées 42, dont une seul est visible sur la figure 3, un ergot 43 destiné à prendre place dans une échancrure 33 que comporte chacune des pattes latérales 32, en sorte d'assurer le bon assujettissement du module 4 au support 3.The body 40 has on each of its two opposite faces 42, only one of which is visible on the figure 3 , a lug 43 intended to take place in a notch 33 that includes each of the lateral lugs 32, so as to ensure the proper subjection of the module 4 to the support 3.

Les échancrures 33 forment des berceaux pour les ergots 43, et constituent des butées de profondeur permettant de définir la limite d'enfoncement du module 4.The notches 33 form cradles for the lugs 43, and constitute depth stops for defining the driving limit of the module 4.

De manière avantageuse, les échancrures 33 peuvent être rétentrices, en sorte qu'elles peuvent retenir les ergots 43, et permettre une fixation réversible du module 4 par encliquetage.Advantageously, the notches 33 may be retentive, so that they can retain the lugs 43, and allow a reversible attachment of the module 4 snap.

De manière avantageuse, la pièce 41 comporte des extensions latérales 45 qui s'étendent au-dessus des ergots 43, et qui permettent de recouvrir la zone de jonction entre le corps 42 et le support 3, en venant notamment recouvrir les extrémité libres des pattes latérales 32Advantageously, the piece 41 has lateral extensions 45 which extend above the lugs 43, and which make it possible to cover the junction zone between the body 42 and the support 3, in particular by covering the free ends of the lugs. side 32

L'épaisseur du module 4 est telle que la pièce 41 affleure le plan du talon 11, en sorte qu'en utilisation la pièce 41 vienne en contact avec le sol.The thickness of the module 4 is such that the part 41 is flush with the plane of the heel 11, so that in use the part 41 comes into contact with the ground.

On notera que le module 4 comporte, sur une face autre que les faces 42, et prolongée dans la pièce 41, une encoche 44 apte à autoriser le passage d'un outil permettant l'enlèvement du module 4.Note that the module 4 comprises, on a face other than the faces 42, and extended in the part 41, a notch 44 adapted to allow the passage of a tool for the removal of the module 4.

La possibilité d'enlèvement du module 4 est destinée à permettre le remplacement de ce dernier par un autre qui diffère par la nature de la pièce 41 qu'il comporte. En effet, selon la nature du sol et/ou des conditions climatiques, l'utilisateur peut choisir le module 4 le mieux adapté.The possibility of removing the module 4 is intended to allow the replacement of the latter by another which differs in nature of the part 41 that it comprises. Indeed, depending on the nature of the soil and / or climatic conditions, the user can choose the most suitable module 4.

En référence aux figures 5a, 5b et 5c, on peut voir différents modes de réalisation du module 4, et plus exactement de la pièce 41.With reference to Figures 5a, 5b and 5c we can see different embodiments of the module 4, and more exactly of the part 41.

Sur la figure 5a, la pièce 41 est plane, et sa spécificité relève essentiellement de la matière dont elle est faite, telle que par exemple, non limitativement, du caoutchouc, une mousse, une gomme etc. On notera que le module 4 peut de plus avoir une fonction amortisseur dans ce cas la pièce 41 est réalisé dans un matériau adéquate et son épaisseur adaptée à cette fonction.On the figure 5a the piece 41 is flat, and its specificity is essentially the material of which it is made, such as for example, not limited to, rubber, foam, rubber etc. Note that the module 4 may also have a damping function in this case the part 41 is made of a suitable material and its thickness adapted to this function.

Sur la figure 5b, la pièce 41 est particulièrement destinée à un usage sur les sols verglacés, à cet effet elle est réalisée dans un matériau de type mousse ou caoutchouc, et comporte des petits crampons métalliques 46, qui débordent à peine le plan général de la pièce 41 et donc du talon 11.On the figure 5b , the piece 41 is particularly intended for use on icy floors, for this purpose it is made of a foam-like material or rubber, and has small metal cleats 46, which barely exceed the general plane of the piece 41 and therefore heel 11.

Sur la figure 5c, la pièce 41 est réalisée en caoutchouc ou en élastomère, et comporte de grands crampons 47, en vue de permettre une progression en terrain humide.On the figure 5c , the piece 41 is made of rubber or elastomer, and has large crampons 47, to allow progression in wet ground.

La chaussure 1 selon l'invention permet ainsi une adaptation rapide aux conditions d'adhérence rencontrées, par le remplacement du module 4 en place par un autre mieux adapté.The shoe 1 according to the invention thus allows rapid adaptation to the adhesion conditions encountered, by replacing the module 4 in place with another better adapted.

D'autre part, le positionnement et la configuration de l'insert 2 ne modifient pas le centre de gravité de l'utilisateur, puisqu'il ne déborde pas le plan de contact du talon ou de la semelle, si ce n'est lorsque la pièce 41 comporte des crampons 42 ou 43, mais dans ces deux cas les crampons 42 et 43 sont destinés à s'enfoncer dans le sol, en sorte que de ne pas modifier l'équilibre de la pose de pied.On the other hand, the positioning and configuration of the insert 2 do not change the user's center of gravity, since it does not extend beyond the contact plane of the heel or the sole, except when the piece 41 has cleats 42 or 43, but in both cases the cleats 42 and 43 are intended to sink into the ground, so that not to change the balance of the foot laying.
