Abstract

The footwear (21) has an integration unit comprising a stitching (45) for affixing an envelope (43) of a fitting element (41) i.e. external fitting element, to a strobel sole (44) of the fitting element. Another integration unit with another stitching (48) affixes another envelope (46) of another fitting element i.e. internal fitting element, to another strobel sole (47) of the latter fitting element. The former stitching extends over an entire junction between the former envelope and the former strobel sole of the former fitting element. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing footwear.

Description

L'invention se rapporte à des chaussures de marche ou de sport dont la tige est double, dans le sens où elle comprend une enveloppe extérieure et une enveloppe intérieure. De telles chaussures peuvent être utilisées dans des domaines tels que la marche, la course sur terrain plat ou en montagne, la planche à roues, un sport de balle, le ski de fond ou de télémark, le surf sur neige, la raquette à neige, ou autre.The invention relates to walking or sports shoes whose stem is double, in the sense that it comprises an outer envelope and an inner envelope. Such shoes can be used in areas such as walking, running on flat terrain or in the mountains, wheeling, ball sport, cross-country skiing or telemark skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing , Or other.

Pour les utilisations envisagées, chaque chaussure doit notamment présenter une certaine souplesse et une bonne capacité d'amortissement. La souplesse doit être comprise comme une aptitude à épouser certaines déformations du pied. Il s'agit par exemple de permettre un bon déroulement du pied pendant la marche. L'amortissement quant à lui a vocation à réduire, voire empêcher, les fatigues ou les traumatismes qui peuvent résulter d'appuis ou d'impacts sur le sol, ou de sollicitations diverses.For the intended uses, each shoe must have particular flexibility and good damping capacity. Flexibility should be understood as an ability to conform to certain deformities of the foot. This is for example to allow a smooth running during walking. The depreciation is intended to reduce, or prevent, fatigue or trauma that may result from support or impacts on the ground, or various solicitations.

Une chaussure doit également remplir des fonctions variées, parfois antinomiques, comme assurer un maintien et/ou un serrage suffisant du pied tout en lui offrant un confort satisfaisant.A shoe must also fulfill various functions, sometimes antithetical, such as ensuring a maintenance and / or a sufficient tightening of the foot while offering a satisfactory comfort.

Ainsi il est connu de fabriquer des chaussures montrées sur des figures 1 et 2, lesquelles font partie d'un dessin annexé qui sera présenté plus loin. Selon ces figures, une chaussure 1 représentée en coupe transversale totale ou partielle comprend un semelage externe 2 et une tige 3. Cette dernière comprend une première enveloppe 4 et une deuxième enveloppe 5, toutes deux prévues pour couvrir le pied directement ou indirectement. La première enveloppe 4 est associée à une première semelle de montage 6, pour former un premier élément chaussant 7. Par analogie la deuxième enveloppe 5 est associée à une deuxième semelle de montage 8 pour former un deuxième élément chaussant 9, ce dernier étant monté à l'intérieur du premier élément chaussant 7. Le deuxième élément chaussant est souvent un chausson. En conséquence les semelles de montage 6, 8 font partie d'un semelage interne 10. La première enveloppe 4 de la chaussure 1 s'étend notamment au niveau d'un côté latéral 11 et d'un côté médial 12, ainsi qu'au niveau d'une portion substantielle de la première semelle de montage 6. Cette structure est classique, car la première enveloppe 4 est collée sur la semelle de montage 6 par une couche de colle 13. La semelle 6 est une semelle relativement rigide, afin de résister au processus de montage, appelée aussi première de montage. Le collage se fait en tirant l'enveloppe 4 pour la plaquer sur la semelle 6, sachant qu'une forme est insérée dans l'élément chaussant 7. On appelle cela le montage traditionnel sur forme. Cela permet d'exercer une pression suffisante pendant le chauffage de la colle, pour obtenir le premier élément chaussant 7. Le deuxième élément chaussant 9, quant à lui, est par exemple réalisé en solidarisant la deuxième enveloppe 5 à la deuxième semelle de montage 8 au moyen d'une couture 14. On appelle cela le montage strobel. La semelle 8 est une semelle souple, pouvant être cousue, appelée semelle strobel. Il aurait alternativement pu être prévu une structure monobloc moulée, ou tout équivalent.Thus it is known to manufacture shoes shown on Figures 1 and 2 which are part of an attached drawing which will be presented later. According to these figures, a shoe 1 represented in total or partial cross section comprises an outer sole 2 and a rod 3. The latter comprises a first envelope 4 and a second envelope 5, both provided to cover the foot directly or indirectly. The first envelope 4 is associated with a first mounting flange 6, to form a first footwear element 7. By analogy, the second envelope 5 is associated with a second mounting flange 8 to form a second footwear element 9, the latter being mounted to the inside of the first piece of footwear 7. The second piece of footwear is often a slipper. As a result, the mounting flanges 6, 8 are part of an internal sole 10. The first envelope 4 of the boot 1 extends in particular at a lateral side 11 and at a medial side 12, as well as at the a level of a substantial portion of the first mounting flange 6. This structure is conventional because the first casing 4 is bonded to the mounting flange 6 by a layer of glue 13. The flange 6 is a relatively rigid sole, in order to resist the editing process, also called first editing. The gluing is done by pulling the envelope 4 to press it on the sole 6, knowing that a shape is inserted into the footwear element 7. This is called the traditional form fitting. This makes it possible to exert sufficient pressure during the heating of the glue, to obtain the first footwear element 7. The second footwear element 9, for its part, is for example made by joining the second envelope 5 to the second mounting flange 8 by means of a seam 14. This is called the strobel assembly. The sole 8 is a flexible sole, which can be sewn, called strobel sole. It could alternatively be provided a molded monobloc structure, or any equivalent.

Il va de soi que le premier élément chaussant 7 est prévu pour assurer un maintien et un serrage du pied, tandis que le deuxième élément chaussant 9 remplit d'autres fonctions comme l'apport d'un certain confort. En complément, on observe que le premier élément chaussant 7 est solidarisé au semelage externe 2 au moyen d'une couche de colle 15. Au final, la chaussure 1 selon les figures 1 et 2 présente une certaine souplesse et une certaine capacité d'amortissement.It goes without saying that the first footwear element 7 is provided to maintain and tighten the foot, while the second footwear element 9 performs other functions such as the contribution of a certain comfort. In addition, it is observed that the first footwear element 7 is secured to the outer sole assembly 2 by means of a glue layer 15. In the end, the shoe 1 according to the Figures 1 and 2 has some flexibility and some cushioning capacity.

D'une manière générale les chaussures souples munies de deux éléments chaussants selon l'art antérieur présentent l'inconvénient suivant : elles gênent encore, au moins en partie, le déroulement du pied du fait de la première de montage rigide, surtout pour la course, et la transmission des appuis, des impacts et autres sollicitations est trop intense. En d'autres termes les chaussures connues manquent de souplesse et présentent une capacité d'amortissement insuffisante, car la partie rabattue de l'enveloppe 4, associée à la couche de colle 13, crée une surépaisseur qui augmente la rigidité de la chaussure.In general, the soft shoes provided with two footwear elements according to the prior art have the following disadvantage: they still hinder, at least in part, the unwinding of the foot due to the rigid mounting first, especially for the race , and the transmission of supports, impacts and other solicitations is too intense. In other words the known shoes lack flexibility and have insufficient cushioning capacity, because the folded portion of the casing 4, associated with the adhesive layer 13, creates an extra thickness that increases the rigidity of the shoe.

Un autre inconvénient est celui de l'isolation thermique. En effet, pour des conditions d'utilisation difficiles comme la marche dans la neige, l'utilisateur peut avoir froid aux pieds. Cela est dû à la formation d'un pont thermique à la jonction de la tige et du semelage externe, pont créé par l'écrasement du matériau lors de l'opération de montage traditionnel sur forme. En effet, lors de cette opération, il est nécessaire de chauffer et de tirer très fort sur les matériaux constitutifs de l'enveloppe 4.Another disadvantage is that of thermal insulation. Indeed, for difficult conditions of use such as walking in the snow, the user can be cold feet. This is due to the formation of a thermal bridge at the junction of the rod and outer sole, bridge created by crushing the material during the traditional form fitting operation. Indeed, during this operation, it is necessary to heat and fire very hard on the constituent materials of the envelope 4.

Un autre inconvénient est celui de la difficulté de fabrication en montage traditionnel. En effet, la mise en place par collage d'une enveloppe sur une semelle de montage est un processus relativement délicat. Il faut pour cela des machines puissantes et précises pour effectuer la traction sur l'enveloppe, les mises en place et le collage.Another disadvantage is the difficulty of manufacturing in traditional assembly. Indeed, the establishment by gluing an envelope on a mounting plate is a relatively delicate process. This requires powerful and precise machines to pull the envelope, set up and glue.

Un autre inconvénient, inhérent à certaines chaussures souples connues, est la faible stabilité de position du deuxième élément chaussant dans le premier. Il arrive par exemple que le retrait du pied entraine un déplacement intempestif du deuxième élément relativement au premier.Another disadvantage, inherent to some known soft shoes, is the low positional stability of the second footwear element in the first. It happens for example that the withdrawal of the foot causes an inadvertent movement of the second element relative to the first.

Par rapport à cela, l'invention a pour but de fournir une chaussure améliorée. Notamment l'invention cherche à faciliter le déroulement du pied dans une chaussure munie de plusieurs éléments chaussants, et à améliorer sa capacité d'amortissement.With respect to this, the object of the invention is to provide an improved shoe. In particular, the invention seeks to facilitate the unfolding of the foot in a shoe provided with several footwear elements, and to improve its damping capacity.

L'invention cherche aussi à garantir le maintien d'un élément chaussant par rapport à l'autre.The invention also seeks to ensure the maintenance of a footwear element relative to the other.

L'invention veut également apporter une bonne isolation thermique, notamment à la jonction de la tige et du semelage externe.The invention also aims to provide good thermal insulation, especially at the junction of the rod and the outer sole.

L'invention cherche encore à simplifier la fabrication de la chaussure, et à baisser les coûts de production.The invention still seeks to simplify the manufacture of the shoe, and to lower production costs.

Pour ce faire, l'invention propose une chaussure comprenant un semelage et une tige, la chaussure s'étendant en longueur depuis une extrémité arrière jusqu'à une extrémité avant, en largeur entre un côté latéral et un côté médial, et en hauteur depuis le semelage jusqu'à une extrémité supérieure, la chaussure comprenant un premier élément chaussant ainsi qu'un deuxième élément chaussant.To do this, the invention provides a shoe comprising a sole and a rod, the shoe extending in length from a rear end to a front end, in width between a lateral side and a medial side, and in height since the sole to an upper end, the shoe comprising a first footwear element and a second footwear element.

La chaussure selon l'invention est caractérisée par le fait que le premier élément chaussant comprend une première enveloppe et une première semelle de type strobel, le moyen de solidarisation de la première enveloppe à la première semelle de type strobel comprenant une couture, et par le fait que le deuxième élément chaussant comprend une deuxième enveloppe et une deuxième semelle de type strobel, le moyen de solidarisation de la deuxième enveloppe à la deuxième semelle de type strobel comprenant une couture.The shoe according to the invention is characterized in that the first footwear element comprises a first envelope and a first sole of the strobel type, the means of securing the first envelope to the first sole of the strobel type comprising a seam, and by the the second footwear element comprises a second envelope and a second sole of strobel type, the securing means of the second envelope to the second sole of strobel type comprising a seam.

L'utilisation d'une couture, pour solidariser une enveloppe et une semelle de type strobel, préserve la structure de ces dernières. Cela signifie notamment que les enveloppes et les semelles de type strobel ne sont pas ou sont peu étirées, comprimées ou altérées d'une manière générale, pendant la fabrication. Ainsi par exemple l'épaisseur d'une enveloppe ou d'une semelle de type strobel reste constante, ou quasiment constante, selon toute son étendue. On observe aussi que la technique de couture se fait en utilisant une semelle de type strobel qui est plus souple qu'elle ne le serait avec la technique de collage. En effet, dans ce dernier cas une semelle de montage est structurée pour résister aux pressions d'application et de collage de l'enveloppe sur la semelle, ainsi que pour tenir l'enveloppe en place après collage. Pour la chaussure de l'invention ces contraintes n'ont pas lieu, ce qui rend la souplesse du bas de tige et/ou du semelage plus grande que pour une chaussure selon l'art antérieur. Les semelles de type strobel, qui peuvent être cousues, sont réalisées avec des matériaux souples et/ou amortissants. Par corollaire, la meilleure souplesse de la chaussure de l'invention permet une meilleure dissipation de l'énergie liée aux impulsions, impacts ou sollicitations diverses.The use of a seam, to secure an envelope and a sole of strobel type, preserves the structure of the latter. This means in particular that envelopes and soles strobel type are not or are not stretched, compressed or altered in general, during manufacture. Thus, for example, the thickness of a shell or sole of the strobel type remains constant, or almost constant, over its entire extent. It is also observed that the technique of sewing is done using a sole of strobel type which is more flexible than it would be with the technique of collage. Indeed, in the latter case a mounting plate is structured to withstand the application and bonding pressures of the envelope on the sole, and to hold the envelope in place after bonding. For the shoe of the invention these stresses do not take place, which makes the flexibility of the lower shank and / or the sole greater than for a shoe according to the prior art. The soles of strobel type, which can be sewn, are made of flexible materials and / or damping. By corollary, the best flexibility of the shoe of the invention allows a better dissipation of the energy related to the pulses, impacts or various solicitations.

Parmi les avantages qui en découlent, on peut citer un meilleur déroulement du pied et, globalement, un meilleur amortissement.Among the benefits that result, we can mention a better running of the foot and, overall, better depreciation.

On observe aussi une bonne stabilité de position du deuxième élément chaussant dans le premier. En effet la technique de couture permet l'emploi de patronages précis, ce qui au final donne des géométries d'éléments chaussants précises. Il est donc facile de prévoir un ajustement sans jeu et sans contrainte du deuxième élément dans le premier. Un des avantages qui en découlent est une meilleure tenue du pied dans la tige.There is also good stability of position of the second footwear element in the first. Indeed the sewing technique allows the use of precise patterns, which ultimately gives the geometries of precise footwear elements. It is therefore easy to provide a fit without play and without constraint of the second element in the first. One of the advantages that ensues is a better hold of the foot in the stem.

La chaussure selon l'invention présente une meilleure isolation thermique, notamment à la jonction de la tige et du semelage externe. Cela résulte de la préservation des matériaux constitutifs des enveloppes et/ou des semelles de type strobel. Cette préservation est bien entendu la conséquence de l'emploi de la technique de couture. Il n'est pas nécessaire de tendre ou de chauffer des matériaux. On remarque que la technique de l'invention simplifie la fabrication de la chaussure, et la rend plus économique.The shoe according to the invention has a better thermal insulation, especially at the junction of the rod and outer sole. This results from the preservation of the constituent materials envelopes and / or soles strobel type. This preservation is of course the consequence of the use of the sewing technique. It is not necessary to tension or heat materials. It is noted that the technique of the invention simplifies the manufacture of the shoe, and makes it more economical.

La première forme de réalisation qui va être décrite après concerne par exemple des chaussures pour la marche sur un sol dur ou dans la neige. Cependant l'invention s'applique à d'autres domaines tels que ceux évoqués avant.The first embodiment which will be described after relates for example to shoes for walking on hard ground or in the snow. However, the invention applies to other fields such as those mentioned before.

La première forme est décrite ci-après à l'aide des figures 3 à 7.The first form is described below using the Figures 3 to 7 .

Comme le montre la figure 3, une chaussure de marche 21 est prévue pour accueillir le pied de l'utilisateur. De manière connue, la chaussure 21 comprend un semelage externe 22 et une tige 23 disposée sur le semelage. La chaussure s'étend en longueur, selon une direction longitudinale L, entre une extrémité arrière ou talon 24 et une extrémité avant ou pointe 25, et en largeur, selon une direction transversale W, entre un côté latéral 26 et un côté médial 27.As shown in figure 3 , a walking shoe 21 is provided to accommodate the foot of the user. In known manner, the shoe 21 comprises an outer sole 22 and a rod 23 disposed on the sole. The shoe extends in length, in a longitudinal direction L, between a rear end or heel 24 and a front end or tip 25, and in width, in a transverse direction W, between a lateral side 26 and a medial side 27.

Telle que représentée la tige 23 comprend une portion basse 30, prévue pour entourer le pied, ainsi qu'une portion haute 31, prévue pour entourer la cheville et éventuellement le bas de jambe. Cependant, on verra par la suite qu'il peut être envisagé une tige comprenant seulement la portion basse.As shown in the rod 23 comprises a lower portion 30, provided to surround the foot, and a high portion 31, provided to surround the ankle and possibly the lower leg. However, it will be seen later that it can be considered a rod comprising only the lower portion.

Selon la première forme de réalisation décrite, la chaussure 21 s'étend en hauteur depuis le semelage externe 22 jusqu'à une extrémité supérieure 32, c'est-à-dire jusqu'à l'extrémité libre de la portion haute 31 ou de la tige 23.According to the first embodiment described, the boot 21 extends in height from the outer sole 22 to an upper end 32, that is to say up to the free end of the upper portion 31 or the rod 23.

La chaussure 21 est structurée pour permettre un bon déroulement du pied pendant la marche, des transmissions d'informations sensorielles, et des impulsions pour des appuis ou des réceptions. C'est pourquoi le semelage externe 22 et la tige 23 sont relativement souples.The shoe 21 is structured to allow a smooth running of the foot during walking, transmissions of sensory information, and impulses for support or receptions. This is why the outer sole 22 and the rod 23 are relatively flexible.

La chaussure 21 comprend encore un premier dispositif de serrage 35, prévu pour serrer la tige 23 de manière réversible. Ce dispositif 35 n'est pas décrit ici car il est bien connu de l'homme du métier. On observe néanmoins que, toujours dans l'esprit de l'invention, on peut prévoir de ne pas équiper la chaussure 21 de dispositif de serrage. Cela signifie que dans ce cas la tige 23 est continue depuis le côté latéral 26 jusqu'au côté médial 27.The shoe 21 further comprises a first clamping device 35, provided for clamping the rod 23 in a reversible manner. This device is not described here because it is well known to those skilled in the art. It is nevertheless observed that, still in the spirit of the invention, provision can be made not to equip the shoe 21 with a clamping device. This means that in this case the rod 23 is continuous from the lateral side 26 to the medial side 27.

Comme on le comprend notamment à l'aide des figures 4 à 6, la chaussure 21 comprend un premier élément chaussant 41 ainsi qu'un deuxième élément chaussant 42. On verra mieux après que le premier élément chaussant 41 est un élément extérieur, directement exposé à d'éventuels contacts avec des obstacles. Le premier dispositif de serrage 35 est d'ailleurs disposé sur cet élément 41. Par corollaire le deuxième élément chaussant 42 est un élément intérieur, prévu pour être inséré dans le premier élément 41.As is understood in particular by the help of Figures 4 to 6 , the boot 21 comprises a first footwear element 41 and a second footwear element 42. It will be seen better after the first footwear element 41 is an external element, directly exposed to possible contacts with obstacles. The first clamping device 35 is moreover disposed on this element 41. By corollary the second footwear element 42 is an inner element, intended to be inserted in the first element 41.

Selon l'invention le premier élément chaussant 41 comprend une première enveloppe 43 et une première semelle de type strobel 44, le moyen de solidarisation de la première enveloppe 43 à la première semelle de type strobel 44 comprenant une couture 45, et le deuxième élément chaussant 42 comprend une deuxième enveloppe 46 et une deuxième semelle de type strobel 47, le moyen de solidarisation de la deuxième enveloppe 46 à la deuxième semelle de type strobel 47 comprenant une couture 48.According to the invention, the first footwear element 41 comprises a first envelope 43 and a first strobel type sole 44, the means for securing the first envelope 43 to the first strobel sole 44 comprising a seam 45, and the second footwear element. 42 comprises a second casing 46 and a second strobel type sole 47, the securing means of the second casing 46 to the second strobel type sole 47 comprising a seam 48.

En ce qui concerne le vocabulaire employé, le respect rigoureux de la tradition consiste à parler de première et deuxième semelles de type strobel 44, 47, désignées ainsi parce que prévues pour être cousues respectivement aux enveloppe 43, 46. Pour faciliter la lecture, il est prévu pour l'invention de parler simplement de première 44 et deuxième 47 strobel.With regard to the vocabulary used, the strict respect of the tradition consists in speaking of first and second strobel type insoles 44, 47, designated as such because they are intended to be sewn respectively to the envelopes 43, 46. For ease of reading, it is intended for the invention to simply speak of first 44 and second 47 strobel.

Par l'emploi d'une couture 45 entre la première enveloppe 43 et la première strobel 44, le premier élément chaussant 41 présente une grande souplesse. Cela signifie que la souplesse de cet élément 41 est plus grande qu'elle ne l'aurait été par la technique traditionnelle du montage par collage sur forme. Bien entendu le deuxième élément chaussant 42 est lui aussi très souple, car lui aussi obtenu par une technique autre qu'un montage par collage sur forme. En conséquence la chaussure 21 présente une grande souplesse, notamment au niveau de la jonction entre la tige 23 et le semelage externe 22. Il s'ensuit que le déroulement du pied, pendant la marche ou la course, est facilité.By the use of a seam 45 between the first envelope 43 and the first strobel 44, the first footwear element 41 has great flexibility. This means that the flexibility of this element 41 is greater than it would have been by the traditional technique of assembly by gluing on form. Of course the second footwear element 42 is also very flexible, because it also obtained by a technique other than a collage assembly form. As a result, the shoe 21 has great flexibility, especially at the junction between the rod 23 and the outer sole 22. It follows that the unwinding of the foot, during walking or running, is facilitated.

L'avantage ci-avant évoqué est obtenu avec des enveloppes 43, 46 de structure générale connue. Ainsi, même si sa représentation est simplifiée, la première enveloppe 43 comprend, selon les applications, une ou plusieurs couches. Par exemple, la première enveloppe 43 comprend une couche extérieure, une âme, une couche intérieure, et une doublure interne. Dans le même esprit la deuxième enveloppe 46 comprend une ou plusieurs couches. Par exemple, la deuxième enveloppe 46 comprend une couche de mousse isolante, ou encore une membrane étanche à l'eau, ou une combinaison des deux. Dans le cas où une couture est réalisée sur une membrane étanche, la couture peut être couverte par une substance ou une bande destinée à boucher les trous faits lors de la couture. Au final la tige 23 comprend au moins deux enveloppes 43, 46 dont les propriétés mécaniques, physiques, sont différentes.The advantage mentioned above is obtained with envelopes 43, 46 of known general structure. Thus, even if its representation is simplified, the first envelope 43 comprises, depending on the application, one or more layers. For example, the first envelope 43 includes an outer layer, a core, an inner layer, and an inner liner. In the same spirit the second envelope 46 comprises one or more layers. For example, the second envelope 46 comprises an insulating foam layer, or a watertight membrane, or a combination of both. In the case where a seam is made on a waterproof membrane, the seam may be covered by a substance or a band for closing the holes made during sewing. Finally the rod 23 comprises at least two envelopes 43, 46 whose mechanical properties, physical, are different.

On remarque que la chaussure 21 comprend un semelage interne 55, lequel comprend la première strobel 44 et la deuxième strobel 47. Il peut être prévu que le semelage interne 55 comprenne aussi, en plus, une semelle de propreté non représentée. Bien entendu, cette semelle irait en contact avec le pied, car disposée dans le deuxième élément chaussant 42.Note that the shoe 21 comprises an internal sole 55, which comprises the first strobel 44 and the second strobel 47. It can be expected that the inner sole 55 also comprises, in addition, a soles not shown cleanliness. Of course, this sole would come into contact with the foot, as arranged in the second footwear element 42.

En prenant en compte l'ensemble des constituants, la chaussure 21 comprend un semelage complet 56 constitué par le semelage externe 22 et par le semelage interne 55. Etant donné que le premier élément chaussant 41 fait appel à la technique de la couture, la première strobel 44 est choisie très souple par rapport à la semelle de montage utilisée en technique traditionnelle de collage sur forme. Cette souplesse permet la réalisation d'une couture. C'est pourquoi le semelage complet 56 selon l'invention est plus souple qu'un semelage complet selon l'art antérieur.Taking into account all the components, the shoe 21 comprises a complete sole assembly 56 constituted by the outer sole 22 and the inner sole 55. Since the first footwear 41 uses the technique of sewing, the first strobel 44 is chosen very flexible compared to the mounting base used in traditional technique of gluing on form. This flexibility allows the realization of a seam. It is why the complete assembly 56 according to the invention is more flexible than a complete assembly according to the prior art.

A titre d'exemple, de manière non limitative, la souplesse de la première strobel 44 est sensiblement égale à la souplesse de la deuxième strobel 47. Cela signifie que la souplesse de la première strobel 44 est égale à plus ou moins 50 % de la souplesse de la deuxième strobel. On pourrait dire aussi que la rigidité de la première strobel 44 est égale à plus ou moins 50% de la rigidité de la deuxième strobel 47, même si ces rigidités sont faibles. Par comparaison, dans l'art antérieur, en technique de collage sur forme, la rigidité de la première semelle de montage est égale ou supérieure à 150% de la rigidité de la semelle de type strobel du deuxième élément chaussant.By way of example, without limitation, the flexibility of the first strobel 44 is substantially equal to the flexibility of the second strobel 47. This means that the flexibility of the first strobel 44 is equal to plus or minus 50% of the flexibility of the second strobel. One could also say that the rigidity of the first strobel 44 is equal to plus or minus 50% of the stiffness of the second strobel 47, even if these rigidities are weak. By comparison, in the prior art, in form gluing technique, the rigidity of the first mounting flange is equal to or greater than 150% of the rigidity of the strobel type sole of the second footwear element.

Pour construire la chaussure 21 selon la première forme de réalisation, comme on le comprend à l'aide des figures 4 à 7, la couture 45 qui solidarise la première enveloppe 43 à la première strobel 44 s'étend sur la totalité de la jonction de l'enveloppe 43 et de la première 44. En d'autres termes, la couture 45 fait le tour complet de la première strobel 44. Cela confère au premier élément chaussant 41 une souplesse maximale. Il aurait alternativement pu être prévu une couture partielle, et l'utilisation de colle là où une couture n'est pas employée. Dans ce cas certaines parties de l'élément 41 sont plus souples que d'autres.To build the shoe 21 according to the first embodiment, as understood with the help of Figures 4 to 7 , the seam 45 which secures the first envelope 43 to the first strobel 44 extends over the entire junction of the envelope 43 and the first 44. In other words, the seam 45 makes the complete turn of the first strobel 44. This gives the first footwear element 41 maximum flexibility. It could alternatively be provided a partial seam, and the use of glue where a seam is not used. In this case some parts of the element 41 are more flexible than others.

Selon le même principe, la couture 48 qui solidarise la deuxième enveloppe 46 à la deuxième strobel 47 s'étend sur la totalité de la jonction de l'enveloppe 46 et de la strobel 47. La couture 48 fait le tour complet de la deuxième strobel 47. Ainsi la souplesse du deuxième élément chaussant 42 est maximale. Il aurait également pu être prévu alternativement une couture partielle.According to the same principle, the seam 48 which secures the second envelope 46 to the second strobel 47 extends over the entire junction of the envelope 46 and the strobel 47. The seam 48 makes the complete turn of the second strobel 47. Thus, the flexibility of the second footwear element 42 is maximum. It could also have been provided alternately a partial seam.

Pour obtenir une chaussure 21 totalement assemblée, il faut solidariser la tige 23 au semelage externe 22. Plus précisément ici le premier élément chaussant 41 est solidarisé au semelage externe 22 par collage, à l'aide d'une couche de colle 60.To obtain a shoe 21 completely assembled, it is necessary to secure the rod 23 to the outer sole 22. More precisely here the first footwear element 41 is secured to the outer sole 22 by gluing, using a layer of glue 60.

On remarque que, de manière non limitative, le semelage externe 22 comprend plusieurs couches : par exemple une couche d'usure 61, prévue pour contacter le sol, ainsi qu'une couche d'amortissement 62, interposée entre la couche d'usure 61 et le premier élément chaussant 41. De manière connue, la couche d'usure 61 comprend du caoutchouc, ou tout matériau qui résiste à l'abrasion. La couche d'amortissement 62, quant à elle, comprend un matériau absorbant, comme une mousse d'éthyle vinyle acétate (EVA) ou tout équivalent. Bien entendu, le semelage externe 22 peut comprendre une seule couche ou, au contraire, trois couches ou plus.Note that, without limitation, the outer sole 22 comprises several layers: for example a wear layer 61, provided to contact the ground, and a damping layer 62, interposed between the wear layer 61 and the first footwear 41. In known manner, the wear layer 61 comprises rubber, or any material that resists abrasion. The damping layer 62, for its part, comprises an absorbent material, such as an ethyl vinyl acetate foam (EVA) or any equivalent. Of course, the outer sole 22 may comprise a single layer or, conversely, three or more layers.

Selon la première forme de réalisation le semelage externe 22 présente une lèvre 63, au niveau de la jonction avec le premier élément chaussant 41, pour augmenter la surface de contact avec ce dernier 41. Ici la lèvre 63 est issue de la couche d'amortissement 62. La lèvre 63 est continue, et suit la périphérie du semelage externe 22. Bien entendu il pourrait alternativement être prévu une lèvre segmentée, ou discontinue. Cependant, une lèvre continue augmente la surface utile pour solidariser le semelage 22 au premier élément chaussant 41. En conséquence la couche de colle 60 s'étend le long de la lèvre 63 et sur le dessus 64 du semelage externe 22. Par corollaire cette couche de colle 60 s'étend au niveau du dessous 65 de la première strobel 44, et au niveau de la base de la première enveloppe 43.According to the first embodiment the outer soleing 22 has a lip 63, at the junction with the first footwear element 41, to increase the contact surface with the latter 41. Here the lip 63 is derived from the damping layer. 62. The lip 63 is continuous, and follows the periphery of the outer sole 22. Of course it could alternatively be provided a segmented lip, or discontinuous. However, a continuous lip increases the useful surface to secure the sole 22 to the first element 41. Accordingly, the adhesive layer 60 extends along the lip 63 and on top 64 of the outer sole 22. As a corollary, this layer of adhesive 60 extends at the level of the underside 65 of the first strobel 44, and at the base of the first envelope 43.

Selon la première forme de réalisation de l'invention, le deuxième élément chaussant 42 est solidarisé au premier élément chaussant 41 par un moyen représenté sous la forme d'une couche de colle 70. Plus précisément, la deuxième strobel 47 est solidarisée à la première strobel 44 par collage. On pourrait alternativement prévoir d'autres structures de moyen, comme des tissus recouverts de boucles ou de crochets. Comme le montre la figure 7, la première strobel 44 présente des passages 73, prévus pour favoriser la mise en place de la colle constitutive des deux couches 60, 70. Ces passages 73 sont ici provisoires, car obtenus par des découpes partielles de la semelle 44. Cependant il peut alternativement être prévu des passages permanents, obtenus par des découpes complètes. On peut aussi prévoir l'injection de colle par des aiguilles creuses, ou l'emploi d'une colle thermoplastique. La colle 70 permet un maintien permanent des éléments chaussants l'un par rapport à l'autre.According to the first embodiment of the invention, the second footwear element 42 is secured to the first footwear element 41 by means represented in the form of a glue layer 70. More specifically, the second strobel 47 is secured to the first strobel 44 by gluing. Other means structures could alternatively be provided, such as fabrics covered with loops or hooks. As shown in figure 7 , the first strobel 44 has passages 73, provided to promote the establishment of the adhesive constitutive of the two layers 60, 70. These passages 73 are here provisional, because obtained by partial cuts of the sole 44. However it can alternatively permanent passages, obtained by complete cutouts, should be provided. It is also possible to provide the injection of glue by hollow needles, or the use of a thermoplastic glue. The glue 70 makes it possible to hold the footwear elements permanently in relation to each other.

Le procédé de fabrication de la chaussure 21 peut être résumé comme suit. Ce procédé consiste à réaliser un premier élément chaussant 41 qui comprend une première enveloppe 43 et une première semelle de type strobel 44 assemblées par couture, à réaliser un deuxième élément chaussant 42 qui comprend une deuxième enveloppe 46 et une deuxième semelle de type strobel 47 assemblées ensemble par couture, à réaliser un semelage externe 22, à solidariser le deuxième élément chaussant 42 avec le premier élément chaussant 41 par collage, et à solidariser le semelage externe 22 sur le premier élément chaussant 41, de façon que l'épaisseur t1 de la première enveloppe 43 et/ou l'épaisseur t2 de la deuxième enveloppe 46, au niveau de la jonction avec le semelage 22, soit comprise entre 50 et 100 % de la valeur qu'elle présente à l'écart de cette jonction.The manufacturing process of the shoe 21 can be summarized as follows. This method consists in producing a first footwear element 41 which comprises a first envelope 43 and a first sole of strobel type 44 assembled by stitching, to form a second footwear element 42 which comprises a second envelope 46 and a second sole of the strobel 47 type assembled together by sewing, to form an outer sole 22, to secure the second footwear element 42 with the first footwear 41 by gluing, and to secure the outer sole 22 on the first footwear element 41, so that the thickness t1 of the first envelope 43 and / or the thickness t2 of the second envelope 46, at the junction with the sole assembly 22, is between 50 and 100% of the value that it has away from this junction.

En fait l'épaisseur t1 de la première enveloppe 43 est sensiblement constante notamment le long du côté latéral 26 ou du côté médial 27. C'est surtout à proximité de la jonction entre la première enveloppe 43 et la première semelle de montage 44, ainsi qu'au niveau même de cette jonction, que l'épaisseur t1 est sensiblement constante. En d'autres termes l'épaisseur t1 est sensiblement constante à proximité et au niveau de la lèvre périphérique 63 du semelage externe 22. Cela est dû au fait que la pression de collage du premier élément chaussant 41 sur le semelage 22 est faible. Les matériaux constitutifs de l'enveloppe 43 et de la première semelle 44 sont préservés, dans le sens où leur structure reste la même partout. Notamment, cette structure n'est pas écrasée de manière irréversible. De plus dans l'invention l'enveloppe n'est pas sollicitée en traction pour être appliquée sur une semelle de montage.In fact the thickness t1 of the first envelope 43 is substantially constant, especially along the lateral side 26 or the medial side 27. This is especially close to the junction between the first envelope 43 and the first mounting flange 44, and that the same level of this junction, the thickness t1 is substantially constant. In other words the thickness t1 is substantially constant near and at the peripheral lip 63 of the outer sole 22. This is due to the fact that the bonding pressure of the first footwear element 41 on the sole 22 is small. The constituent materials of the envelope 43 and the first sole 44 are preserved, in the sense that their structure remains the same everywhere. In particular, this structure is not irreversibly overwritten. Moreover, in the invention, the envelope is not stressed in tension to be applied to a mounting flange.

Sous l'angle des chiffres, l'épaisseur t1 de la première enveloppe 43, mesurée au niveau de la couture 45, est comprise entre 90 et 100 % de cette même épaisseur t1 mesurée au niveau du sommet 75 de la lèvre 63. Une variation d'épaisseur aussi faible se retrouve notamment sur une botte à neige, qui est une chaussure sans dispositif de serrage de tige, c'est-à-dire dont la tige est continue d'un côté 26, 27 à l'autre. On observe parfois une épaisseur t1, au niveau de la couture 45, comprise entre 50 et 100 % de cette même épaisseur t1 au niveau du sommet 75 de la lèvre 63. Cette variation, toujours faible par rapport à celle observée sur une chaussure traditionnelle montée par collage de l'enveloppe sur la semelle de montage, est dénotée sur des chaussures plus adaptées à la marche ou à la course sur des terrains plus durs. Dans tous les cas la conservation de toute l'épaisseur t1, ou au moins d'une partie significative de l'épaisseur t1, améliore l'isolation thermique. Cette isolation est préservée au niveau de la jonction entre l'enveloppe 43 et le semelage 22. Aucun pont thermique n'est à déplorer. Le confort de la chaussure 21 est donc meilleur, surtout dans la neige.From the angle of the figures, the thickness t1 of the first envelope 43, measured at the seam 45, is between 90 and 100% of the same thickness t1 measured at the top 75 of the lip 63. of such low thickness is found in particular on a snow boot, which is a shoe without rod clamping device, that is to say whose rod is continuous from one side 26, 27 to the other. There is sometimes a thickness t1 at the level of the seam 45, between 50 and 100% of the same thickness t1 at the top 75 of the lip 63. This variation, always small compared to that observed on a traditional shoe mounted by gluing the envelope on the sole of assembly, is denoted on shoes more suitable for walking or running on harder ground. In all cases the conservation of the entire thickness t1, or at least a significant part of the thickness t1, improves the thermal insulation. This insulation is preserved at the junction between the casing 43 and the sole assembly 22. No thermal bridge is to deplore. The comfort of the shoe 21 is therefore better, especially in the snow.

Ce qui précède s'applique aussi au deuxième élément chaussant 42. L'épaisseur t2 de la deuxième enveloppe 46 est sensiblement constante notamment le long du côté latéral 26 ou du côté médial 27. A proximité de la jonction entre la deuxième enveloppe 46 et la deuxième strobel 47, ainsi qu'au niveau de cette jonction, l'épaisseur t2 est sensiblement constante. L'épaisseur t2 est sensiblement constante à proximité et au niveau de la lèvre périphérique 63 du semelage externe 22. Là encore la pression de collage du deuxième élément chaussant 42 dans le premier élément 41 est faible, voire très faible. Les matériaux constitutifs de l'enveloppe 46 et de la deuxième semelle 47 sont préservés, leur structure restant la même partout.The above also applies to the second footwear element 42. The thickness t2 of the second envelope 46 is substantially constant, especially along the lateral side 26 or the medial side 27. Near the junction between the second envelope 46 and the second strobel 47, and at this junction, the thickness t2 is substantially constant. The thickness t2 is substantially constant near and at the level of the peripheral lip 63 of the outer sole 22. Again, the bonding pressure of the second footwear element 42 in the first element 41 is small or very low. The constituent materials of the envelope 46 and the second sole 47 are preserved, their structure remaining the same everywhere.

L'épaisseur t2 de la deuxième enveloppe 46, mesurée au niveau de la couture 48, est comprise entre 90 et 100 % de cette même épaisseur t2 mesurée au niveau du sommet 75 de la lèvre 63. Là encore on observe parfois, au niveau de la couture 48, une épaisseur t2 comprise entre 50 et 100 % de cette même épaisseur t2 au niveau du sommet 75 de la lèvre 63.The thickness t2 of the second envelope 46, measured at the seam 48, is between 90 and 100% of the same thickness t2 measured at the apex 75 of the lip 63. Again, it is sometimes observed that the seam 48, a thickness t2 between 50 and 100% of the same thickness t2 at the top 75 of the lip 63.

Pour certaines applications, il est prévu que la deuxième enveloppe 46 comprenne une couche et/ou une membrane étanche à l'eau, et que la deuxième strobel 47 comprenne aussi une couche et/ou une membrane étanche à l'eau. Ainsi dans ce cas le deuxième élément chaussant 42 est un chausson, étanche ou très résistant à la pénétration d'eau. Il est avantageusement prévu, même si cela n'est pas représenté, de couvrir la couture 48 par une bande collée à la fois sur la deuxième enveloppe 46 et sur la deuxième semelle 47. Cette bande étanchéifie la couture 48, en bouchant les trous de passage des fils. Bien entendu l'étanchéité peut être obtenue par d'autres moyens, comme l'application directe d'une matière de couverture, ou la mise en place d'une sursemelle étanche.For certain applications, it is expected that the second envelope 46 comprises a layer and / or a waterproof membrane, and that the second strobel 47 also comprises a layer and / or a waterproof membrane. Thus in this case the second footwear element 42 is a liner, waterproof or highly resistant to the penetration of water. It is advantageously provided, even if not shown, to cover the seam 48 with a tape bonded to both the second envelope 46 and the second sole 47. This tape seals the seam 48, by sealing the holes of passage of the wires. Of course the seal can be obtained by other means, such as the direct application of a roofing material, or the establishment of a sursemelle waterproof.

La deuxième forme de réalisation de l'invention est présentée ci-après sommairement à l'aide de la figure 8. Seules les différences par rapport à la première forme de réalisation sont mises en évidence.The second embodiment of the invention is presented below briefly with the aid of the figure 8 . Only the differences with respect to the first embodiment are highlighted.

Selon la deuxième forme, une chaussure 81 comprend un semelage externe 82 et une tige 83. Ce qui est spécifique à cette chaussure 81, c'est que la tige 83 est basse, dans le sens où elle comprend une portion basse 90 à l'exclusion de toute portion haute. Cela revient à dire que l'extrémité supérieure 92 de la portion basse 90 se situe sous le niveau de la cheville lorsqu'un utilisateur a chaussé la chaussure 81. Cette dernière est par conséquent bien adaptée à la marche ou à la course.According to the second form, a shoe 81 comprises an outer sole 82 and a rod 83. What is specific to this shoe 81 is that the rod 83 is low, in the sense that it comprises a lower portion 90 to exclusion of any high portion. That is to say that the upper end 92 of the lower portion 90 is below the level of the ankle when a user has put on the shoe 81. The latter is therefore well suited to walking or running.

Dans tous les cas l'invention est réalisée à partir de matériaux et selon des techniques de mise en oeuvre connus de l'homme du métier.In all cases the invention is made from materials and according to processing techniques known to those skilled in the art.

Bien entendu l'invention n'est pas limitée aux formes de réalisation ci-avant décrites, et comprend tous les équivalents techniques pouvant entrer dans la portée des revendications qui vont suivre.Naturally, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and includes all technical equivalents that fall within the scope of the claims that follow.

En particulier il peut être prévu d'ajouter encore un ou plusieurs éléments chaussants. Ainsi la chaussure peut comprendre un troisième élément chaussant.In particular, it may be provided to add one or more footwear elements. Thus the shoe may comprise a third footwear element.

Il peut aussi être prévu de laisser un espace libre entre deux éléments chaussants. Cet espace se remplit naturellement d'air, et sert d'isolant thermique. Alternativement, l'espace peut être comblé par d'autres matériaux isolants.It can also be expected to leave a free space between two footwear elements. This space fills naturally with air, and serves as thermal insulation. Alternatively, the space can be filled by other insulating materials.
