Definitions
- the invention relates to a shoe, especially sports, and more particularly relates to a shoe for skiing, athletic walking, or athletics.
- Such shoes can be used in areas such as cross-country skiing or telemark, walking or running flat or mountain, mountaineering or snow surfing, snowshoeing, rollerblading, wheeling, cycling, ball sport, or whatever.
- the shoe is structured to prevent the intrusion of foreign bodies within it during use. For example, in the field of cross-country skiing, we will try to prevent the intrusion of snow in the stem.
- the shoe 1 comprises a sole 2 and a rod 3.
- the latter 3 comprises a flexible envelope 4 provided to surround the ankle and partially cover at least the foot of a user.
- the envelope 4 defines the upper end 5 of the shoe. Because it is elastic and structured to exert a compression around the ankle 6 of the user, the envelope prevents the penetration of foreign bodies in the shoe. For example the inadvertent entry of snow is avoided.
- the flexible envelope has the disadvantage of not maintaining the heel of the user in the shoe. This is why it was planned to provide the shoe with a band 8. It extends from one side 10 to the other 11 of the shoe bypassing the envelope 4 above the heel 12. Of course the band 8 is oriented to oppose lifting the heel 13 of the foot. Thus the heel of the user is properly maintained in the shoe, which allows precise driving, and avoids trauma.
- the boot 1 comprises a gripping member 14 secured to the casing 4 at the upper end 5 of the boot, on the side of the heel 12.
- the member 14 makes it possible to pull on the casing 4 to slide it along the foot and ankle when putting on shoes. This facilitates the introduction of the foot into the shoe.
- an object of the invention is to facilitate the boot, that is to say, to ensure that the foot enters more easily in the shoe.
- the invention proposes a shoe according to claim 1.
- the reinforcement can be in different aspects. In all cases it allows to extend the subdivision of the envelope that connects the gripping member to the rear end.
- the tension can be temporary, or permanent.
- the reinforcement guides the heel of the foot in front of the foot. back end or heel of the shoe. It follows advantageously that the foot easily enters the shoe. The boot is not embarrassed, or is only very little.
- the shoe according to the invention is an improvement of the prior art, with a wider field of use.
- the invention more particularly relates to shoes for cross-country skiing, or telemark.
- the invention applies to other fields such as those mentioned before.
- a cross-country ski boot 21 is provided to accommodate the foot of the user.
- the shoe 21 comprises an outer sole 22 and a rod 23.
- the shoe 21 extends in length from a rear end or heel 24 to a front end or tip 25, in width between a lateral side 26 and a medial side 27, and in height from the sole 22 to an upper end 28.
- the rod 23 comprises a lower portion 31, provided to cover the foot 32, and an upper portion 33, provided to surround the pin 34.
- the lower portion 31 comprises in particular a lateral portion 36, the heel 24, and a medial district 37, which surround the foot 32 of the user.
- the quarters 36, 37 and the heel 24 are secured to the sole 22 by any means, such as a collage.
- the shoe 21 also comprises an envelope 38. It is this envelope 38 which constitutes the upper portion 33 and, as a result, surrounds the ankle 34. At this level the envelope 38 forms a tube, which surrounds the ankle. By corollary the envelope 38 defines the upper end 28 of the shoe.
- the envelope 38 also extends towards the quarters 36, 37 and the heel 24. This means that the envelope 38 extends both at the level of the lower portion 31 and of the high portion 33.
- the envelope 38 is a part of the boot 21 intended to come into direct contact with the foot and the ankle. It 38 therefore extends inside the enclosure formed by the quarters 36, 37 and the heel 24. This provides comfort to the user.
- the envelope 38 is flexible and, in a nonlimiting manner, elastic. This means that it can be distended by an external action, to naturally resume its original form when the action ceases.
- the envelope 38 is structured to exert a restraining force around the ankle 34. It is therefore made of extensible and elastic fabric pieces. Of course, it may be provided that all the pieces of fabric are elastic or, alternatively, only part of the pieces. In all cases, the effect obtained is a protection against the intrusion of foreign bodies into the shoe, when the latter is worn by the user.
- the shoe comprises a rear support element 41.
- This element 41 itself comprises a band 42 which extends from the lateral side 26 to the medial side 27, bypassing the top Heel 24. At this level the band 42 runs along the envelope 38. It can therefore be said that the band 42 bypasses the envelope.
- the band 42 is for example made of textile fibers, arranged to make the band flexible but inextensible.
- the band 42 comprises a lateral attachment end 43 which connects it to the lateral quarter 36.
- the end 43 is secured to the quarter 36 in an adjustable manner, for example by cooperation of two soft plastic parts, one with loops and the other with hooks.
- one end of the band 42 is secured to a region of the shoe in an adjustable manner.
- the band 42 comprises a medial attachment end 47 which connects it to the medial quarter 37.
- the end 47 is secured to the quarter 37 in a fixed manner, for example by a seam or any equivalent means.
- the band 42 is further from the sole 22 than its ends 43, 47. Consequently, the band 42 forms with the sole 22 an angle such that it is opposed to an elevation of the heel of the foot 32. In other words the band 42 maintains the heel of the foot in the shoe.
- the band 42 is necessary because the flexibility of the envelope 38 makes the latter unfit to maintain the heel of the foot.
- the shoe 21 also comprises a gripping member 48, secured to the casing 38 at the upper end 28, the side of the rear end 24.
- This member 48 is here made in the form of a loop, made with a strap and sewn on the envelope.
- a rigid handle could be provided to make the member 48, such as a rigid handle.
- the loop has the advantage of being flexible, compact, easy to manufacture. It serves to pull the back of the envelope 38, in a direction away from the sole 22, at the time of donning.
- the shoe 21 comprises an inextensible reinforcement 50 which connects the rear end 24 to the gripping member 48.
- This allows to stretch the casing 38, in its subdivision between the rear end 24 and the gripping member 48 when traction is exerted on the latter 48, according to the arrow A1.
- traction tends to move the member 48 away from the sole assembly 22.
- This traction is exerted simultaneously with the entry of the foot into the boot, along the arrow A2.
- the localized tension of the envelope 38 allows it to guide the heel of the foot into the shoe. In other words the heel of the foot does not encounter any obstacle to the boot.
- the reinforcement 50 comprises a distribution tab 51. This serves to distribute the pressure exerted on the top of the heel of the foot by the band 42, through the envelope 38.
- the tongue 51 extends in the direction of the height from a low end 52 to a high end 53.
- the low end 52 is located at the heel 24, away from the sole 22.
- end 52 is secured to the heel 24 by any means such as a seam.
- the upper end 53 is located between the lower end 52 of the tongue 51 and the upper end 28 of the shoe.
- the distribution tab 51 is located at the rear of the shoe, above the heel 24.
- the tongue 51 is of course interposed between the band 42 and the envelope 38.
- the tongue 51 is for example constituted by a plastic material.
- the tongue 51 extends transversely from a lateral edge 54 to a medial edge 55. Between the edges 54, 55, the tongue 51 delimits a contact face 56 which is concave. This face 56 is supported on the casing 38. Opposite the contact face 56, the tongue 51 defines a free face 57 which is convex. Note that the free face 57 has a guide 58 for the band 42 of the rear support element 41. This keeps the band 42 in its nominal position.
- the reinforcement 50 comprises a non-stretchable flexible strap 61.
- the strap 61 comprises a central portion, or body 62, delimited longitudinally by a low end 63 and an upper end 64.
- the lower end 63 is secured to the distribution tab 51, for example by means of a seam 65.
- the high end 64 is secured to the envelope 38, at or near the upper end 28 of the boot 21, for example by means of a seam 66.
- the body 62 is opposite the the envelope 38 without being subject to it. In other words at this level the body 62 is free.
- the absence of connection between the body 62 and the envelope 38 leaves it free from deformation, which allows it to exert a uniform compression around the ankle or the lower leg of the user.
- the constituent strap of the gripping member 48 and the strap 61 of the reinforcement 50 extend one another.
- a single strap forms part of the reinforcement 50 and the loop or gripping member 48.
- the seam 66 secures both the upper end 64 of the strap 61 and the loop 48 to the envelope 38. This simplifies the structure of the shoe.
- the lower end 63 of the strap 61 is secured to the upper end 53 of the distribution tab 51 and, as we have seen, the tongue 51 is secured to the heel 24 by its lower end 52.
- the location at its ends 52, 53 of the securing means of the tongue 51 makes that a traction along the arrow A1 is transmitted directly to the heel, that is to say without any torque solicits the tongue 51 to deform or the orient in a direction other than arrow A1. Consequently the guidance of the heel of the foot, at the time of fitting, is most accurate.
- the combination of the gripping member 48, the strap 61 and the distribution tab 51 form a shoehorn integrated shoe 21. This shoehorn is arranged to be efficient at the time of donning , and totally imperceptible when using the shoe.
- the shoe 21 with its sole 22, its stem 23, its heel 24, and its lateral 36 and medial 37.
- the shoe 21 also includes a lower portion 31 and an upper portion 33, with an envelope 38 which defines a upper end 28.
- the shoe 21 also comprises a rear support element 41, with a band 42, and a gripping member 48 and a reinforcement 80.
- the latter 80 comprises a tongue 51.
- the reinforcement 80 comprises a tie rod 81 which connects the distribution tab 51 to the gripping member, or loop 48.
- the tie rod 81 is a rigid piece, made for example with a plastic, a metal, or any suitable material.
- the distribution tab 51 and the tie rod 81 form a single piece, made of plastic.
- this piece is connected to the heel 24 by any appropriate means, such as a seam, at the lower end 52 of the portion which forms the tongue 51.
- the piece is connected to the envelope 38 by any appropriate means, such as a seam 66, at the upper end 64 of the portion forming the tie rod 81. Therefore the subdivision the envelope 38 which extends opposite the workpiece, that is to say opposite the tongue 51 and the tie rod 81, is tensioned permanently.
- the gripping member 48 consists of a loop, that is to say here by a strap, which is secured to the envelope 38 and at the upper end 64 of the tie rod 81 by the means represented in the form of the seam 66.
- the manufacture of the boot 21 is faster because it is not necessary to secure the tie rod 81 to the tongue 51.
- the band 42 could be split into two subdivisions which would each connect one side of the shoe to the tongue or distribution plate.
- inextensible reinforcement 50, 80 we have seen that it is disposed outside the shoe 21. Nevertheless, alternatively, it could be arranged inside.

Description
L'invention se rapporte à une chaussure, notamment de sport, et concerne plus particulièrement une chaussure destinée à la pratique du ski, de la marche sportive, ou de l'athlétisme.The invention relates to a shoe, especially sports, and more particularly relates to a shoe for skiing, athletic walking, or athletics.
De telles chaussures peuvent être utilisées dans des domaines tels que le ski de fond ou de télémark, la marche ou la course à plat ou en montagne, l'alpinisme ou encore le surf sur neige, la raquette à neige, le patin à roues, la planche à roues, le cyclisme, un sport de balle, ou autre.Such shoes can be used in areas such as cross-country skiing or telemark, walking or running flat or mountain, mountaineering or snow surfing, snowshoeing, rollerblading, wheeling, cycling, ball sport, or whatever.
Pour certaines pratiques il est intéressant que la chaussure soit structurée pour empêcher l'intrusion de corps étrangers en son sein pendant l'utilisation. Par exemple, dans le domaine du ski de fond, on va chercher à empêcher l'intrusion de neige dans la tige.For some practices it is interesting that the shoe is structured to prevent the intrusion of foreign bodies within it during use. For example, in the field of cross-country skiing, we will try to prevent the intrusion of snow in the stem.
Une chaussure de ski de fond selon l'art antérieur est présentée à l'aide de la
Selon la
L'enveloppe souple présente l'inconvénient de ne pas maintenir le talon de l'utilisateur dans la chaussure. C'est pourquoi il a été prévu de munir la chaussure d'une bande 8. Celle-ci s'étend d'un côté 10 à l'autre 11 de la chaussure en contournant l'enveloppe 4 au-dessus du talon 12. Bien entendu la bande 8 est orientée pour s'opposer à un soulèvement du talon 13 du pied. Ainsi le talon de l'utilisateur est correctement maintenu dans la chaussure, ce qui permet une conduite précise, et évite des traumatismes.The flexible envelope has the disadvantage of not maintaining the heel of the user in the shoe. This is why it was planned to provide the shoe with a
De manière complémentaire la chaussure 1 comprend un organe de préhension 14, solidarisé à l'enveloppe 4 au niveau de l'extrémité supérieure 5 de la chaussure, du côté du talon 12. L'organe 14 permet de tirer sur l'enveloppe 4 pour la faire glisser le long du pied et de la cheville au moment du chaussage. Cela facilite l'introduction du pied dans la chaussure.In a complementary manner, the
Il est toutefois apparu que, parfois, l'introduction du pied dans la chaussure n'est pas si facile. En fait il arrive que le talon du pied bute sur le talon 12 de la chaussure au moment du chaussage. Cela gêne ou arrête le pied. De ce fait l'utilisateur doit prolonger les manipulations pour compléter le chaussage.However, it has become apparent that sometimes the introduction of the foot into the shoe is not so easy. In fact, it happens that the heel of the foot abuts on the
Le document
Par rapport à cela l'invention cherche à améliorer une chaussure qui comprend une enveloppe souple. Notamment un but de l'invention est de faciliter le chaussage, c'est-à-dire faire en sorte que le pied entre plus facilement dans la chaussure.In relation to this the invention seeks to improve a shoe which comprises a flexible envelope. In particular an object of the invention is to facilitate the boot, that is to say, to ensure that the foot enters more easily in the shoe.
Pour ce faire l'invention propose une chaussure selon la revendication 1.To do this, the invention proposes a shoe according to
On verra par la suite que le renfort peut se présenter sous différents aspects. Dans tous les cas il permet de tendre la subdivision de l'enveloppe qui relie l'organe de préhension à l'extrémité arrière. La tension peut être temporaire, ou bien permanente.It will be seen later that the reinforcement can be in different aspects. In all cases it allows to extend the subdivision of the envelope that connects the gripping member to the rear end. The tension can be temporary, or permanent.
Ainsi lorsque l'utilisateur introduit un pied dans la chaussure et que, dans le même temps, il sollicite l'organe de préhension dans un sens inverse à celui d'introduction du pied, alors le renfort guide le talon du pied en avant de l'extrémité arrière ou talon de la chaussure. Il s'ensuit avantageusement que le pied entre facilement dans la chaussure. Le chaussage n'est pas gêné, ou l'est seulement très peu.Thus when the user introduces a foot in the shoe and, at the same time, it solicits the gripping member in a direction opposite to that of introduction of the foot, then the reinforcement guides the heel of the foot in front of the foot. back end or heel of the shoe. It follows advantageously that the foot easily enters the shoe. The boot is not embarrassed, or is only very little.
D'une manière générale la chaussure selon l'invention est une amélioration de l'art antérieur, avec un champ d'utilisation plus large.In general, the shoe according to the invention is an improvement of the prior art, with a wider field of use.

L'invention concerne plus spécialement des chaussures pour la pratique du ski de fond, ou de télémark. Cependant l'invention s'applique à d'autres domaines tels que ceux évoqués avant.The invention more particularly relates to shoes for cross-country skiing, or telemark. However, the invention applies to other fields such as those mentioned before.
L'invention est décrite à l'aide des
Comme le montrent par exemple les
De manière connue, la chaussure 21 comprend un semelage externe 22 et une tige 23. La chaussure 21 s'étend en longueur depuis une extrémité arrière ou talon 24 jusqu'à une extrémité avant ou pointe 25, en largeur entre un côté latéral 26 et un côté médial 27, et en hauteur depuis le semelage 22 jusqu'à une extrémité supérieure 28.In known manner, the
Telle que représentée la tige 23 comprend une portion basse 31, prévue pour couvrir le pied 32, ainsi qu'une portion haute 33, prévue pour entourer la cheville 34. La portion basse 31 comprend notamment un quartier latéral 36, le talon 24, et un quartier médial 37, lesquels entourent le pied 32 de l'utilisateur. Bien entendu, les quartiers 36, 37 et le talon 24 sont solidarisés au semelage 22 par tout moyen, comme un collage. La chaussure 21 comprend aussi une enveloppe 38. C'est cette enveloppe 38 qui constitue la portion haute 33 et, de ce fait, entoure la cheville 34. A ce niveau l'enveloppe 38 forme un tube, lequel entoure la cheville. Par corollaire l'enveloppe 38 délimite l'extrémité supérieure 28 de la chaussure.As shown in the
De manière non limitative, l'enveloppe 38 s'étend aussi en vis-à-vis des quartiers 36, 37 et du talon 24. Cela signifie que l'enveloppe 38 s'étend à la fois au niveau de la portion basse 31 et de la portion haute 33.In a nonlimiting manner, the
L'enveloppe 38 est une partie de la chaussure 21 prévue pour venir directement en contact du pied et de la cheville. Elle 38 s'étend donc à l'intérieur de l'enceinte formée par les quartiers 36, 37 et le talon 24. Cela apporte du confort à l'utilisateur.The
L'enveloppe 38 est souple et, de manière non limitative, élastique. Cela signifie qu'elle peut être distendue par une action extérieure, pour reprendre naturellement sa forme initiale quand l'action cesse. Ainsi l'enveloppe 38 est structurée pour exercer un effort de contention autour de la cheville 34. Elle est de ce fait constituée de pièces de tissu extensibles et élastiques. Bien entendu, il peut être prévu que toutes les pièces de tissu soient élastiques ou, alternativement, une partie seulement des pièces. Dans tous les cas, l'effet obtenu est une protection contre l'intrusion de corps étrangers dans la chaussure, lorsque celle-ci est portée par l'utilisateur.The
Afin de maintenir correctement le talon du pied, la chaussure comprend un élément d'appui arrière 41. Cet élément 41 comprend lui-même une bande 42 qui s'étend depuis le côté latéral 26 jusqu'au côté médial 27, en contournant le dessus du talon 24. A ce niveau la bande 42 longe l'enveloppe 38. On peut donc dire que la bande 42 contourne l'enveloppe. La bande 42 est par exemple constituée de fibres textiles, agencées pour rendre la bande souple mais inextensible.In order to properly maintain the heel of the foot, the shoe comprises a
Comme le montre la
Dans le même esprit, comme le montre la
On observe qu'au dessus du talon 24, la bande 42 est plus éloignée du semelage 22 que ne le sont ses extrémités 43, 47. En conséquence la bande 42 forme avec le semelage 22 un angle tel qu'elle 42 s'oppose à une élévation du talon du pied 32. En d'autres termes la bande 42 maintient le talon du pied dans la chaussure. La bande 42 est nécessaire, car la souplesse de l'enveloppe 38 rend cette dernière inapte au maintien du talon du pied.It is observed that above the
La chaussure 21 comprend encore un organe de préhension 48, solidarisé à l'enveloppe 38 au niveau de l'extrémité supérieure 28, du côté de l'extrémité arrière 24. Cet organe 48 est ici réalisé sous la forme d'une boucle, faite avec une sangle et cousue sur l'enveloppe. Bien entendu, une autre structure pourrait être prévue pour faire l'organe 48, comme par exemple une poignée rigide. La boucle présente l'avantage d'être souple, peu encombrante, facile à fabriquer. Elle sert à tirer l'arrière de l'enveloppe 38, dans un sens d'éloignement du semelage 22, au moment du chaussage.The
Selon l'invention, comme on le comprend à l'aide des
Le renfort 50 comprend une languette de répartition 51. Celle-ci sert à répartir la pression exercée sur le dessus du talon du pied par la bande 42, à travers l'enveloppe 38.The
La languette 51 s'étend dans le sens de la hauteur depuis une extrémité basse 52 jusqu'à une extrémité haute 53. Bien entendu l'extrémité basse 52 est située au niveau du talon 24, à l'écart du semelage 22. L'extrémité 52 est solidarisée au talon 24 par tout moyen tel qu'une couture. L'extrémité haute 53, quant à elle, est localisée entre l'extrémité basse 52 de la languette 51 et l'extrémité supérieure 28 de la chaussure. On peut dire que la languette de répartition 51 est située à l'arrière de la chaussure, au-dessus du talon 24. La languette 51 est bien entendu interposée entre la bande 42 et l'enveloppe 38. La languette 51 est par exemple constituée par une matière plastique.The
La languette 51 s'étend transversalement depuis un bord latéral 54 jusqu'à un bord médial 55. Entre les bords 54, 55, la languette 51 délimite une face de contact 56 qui est concave. Cette face 56 prend appui sur l'enveloppe 38. A l'opposé de la face de contact 56, la languette 51 délimite une face libre 57 qui est convexe. On remarque que la face libre 57 présente un guide 58 pour la bande 42 de l'élément d'appui arrière 41. Cela maintient la bande 42 dans sa position nominale.The
Le renfort 50 comprend une sangle 61 souple non extensible. La sangle 61 comprend une portion centrale, ou corps 62, délimitée longitudinalement par une extrémité basse 63 et une extrémité haute 64. L'extrémité basse 63 est solidarisée à la languette de répartition 51, par exemple au moyen d'une couture 65. Dans le même esprit l'extrémité haute 64 est solidarisée à l'enveloppe 38, au niveau ou à proximité de l'extrémité supérieure 28 de la chaussure 21, par exemple au moyen d'une couture 66. Entre les coutures 65, 66, le corps 62 est en vis-à-vis de l'enveloppe 38 sans y être assujetti. En d'autres termes à ce niveau le corps 62 est libre. L'absence de liaison entre le corps 62 et l'enveloppe 38 laisse à cette dernière une liberté de déformation, laquelle lui permet d'exercer une contention uniforme autour de la cheville ou du bas de jambe de l'utilisateur.The
La sangle constitutive de l'organe de préhension 48 et la sangle 61 du renfort 50 se prolongent l'une l'autre. En d'autres termes une sangle unique forme une partie du renfort 50 et la boucle ou organe de préhension 48. On remarque que la couture 66 solidarise à la fois l'extrémité haute 64 de la sangle 61 et la boucle 48 à l'enveloppe 38. Cela simplifie la structure de la chaussure.The constituent strap of the gripping
L'extrémité basse 63 de la sangle 61 est solidarisée à l'extrémité haute 53 de la languette de répartition 51 et, comme on l'a vu, la languette 51 est solidarisée au talon 24 par son extrémité basse 52. La localisation à ses extrémités 52, 53 des moyens de solidarisation de la languette 51 fait qu'une traction selon la flèche A1 est transmise directement au talon, c'est-à-dire sans qu'aucun couple ne sollicite la languette 51 pour la déformer ou l'orienter dans une direction autre que celle de la flèche A1. En conséquence le guidage du talon du pied, au moment du chaussage, est des plus précis. En fait l'association, de l'organe de préhension 48, de la sangle 61 et de la languette de répartition 51, forme un chausse-pied intégré à la chaussure 21. Ce chausse-pied est disposé pour être efficient au moment du chaussage, et totalement imperceptible lors de l'utilisation de la chaussure.The
Un exemple non couvert par les revendications est présentée maintenant à l'aide des
On retrouve notamment une chaussure 21 avec son semelage 22, sa tige 23, son talon 24, et ses quartiers latéral 36 et médial 37. La chaussure 21 comprend aussi une portion basse 31 et une portion haute 33, avec une enveloppe 38 qui délimite une extrémité supérieure 28. La chaussure 21 comprend encore un élément d'appui arrière 41, avec une bande 42, ainsi qu'un organe de préhension 48 et un renfort 80. Ce dernier 80 comprend une languette 51.One finds in particular a
Ce qui est spécifique à cet exemple, c'est que le renfort 80 comprend un tirant 81 qui relie la languette de répartition 51 à l'organe de préhension, ou boucle 48. Le tirant 81 est une pièce rigide, réalisée par exemple avec une matière plastique, un métal, ou tout matériau approprié. Ici la languette de répartition 51 et le tirant 81 forment une pièce monobloc, réalisée en matière plastique.What is specific to this example is that the
Bien entendu, cette pièce est reliée au talon 24 par tout moyen approprié, tel qu'une couture, au niveau de l'extrémité basse 52 de la partie qui forme la languette 51. Selon la même approche, la pièce est reliée à l'enveloppe 38 par tout moyen approprié, tel qu'une couture 66, au niveau de l'extrémité haute 64 de la partie qui forme le tirant 81. De ce fait la subdivision de l'enveloppe 38 qui s'étend en regard de la pièce, c'est-à-dire en regard de la languette 51 et du tirant 81, est tendue en permanence. En complément on observe que l'organe de préhension 48 est constitué d'une boucle, c'est-à-dire ici par une sangle, laquelle est solidarisée à l'enveloppe 38 et à l'extrémité haute 64 du tirant 81 par le moyen représenté sous la forme de la couture 66.Of course, this piece is connected to the
Selon cet exemple, la fabrication de la chaussure 21 est plus rapide car il n'est pas nécessaire de solidariser le tirant 81 à la languette 51.According to this example, the manufacture of the
De nombreuses structures peuvent être prévues pour réaliser le renfort, l'organe de préhension, ou l'élément d'appui arrière.Many structures can be provided to achieve the reinforcement, the gripping member, or the rear support member.
Par exemple la bande 42 pourrait être fragmentée en deux subdivisions qui relieraient chacune un côté de la chaussure à la languette ou plaque de répartition.For example, the
A propos du renfort inextensible 50, 80, on a vu que celui-ci est disposé à l'extérieur de la chaussure 21. Néanmoins, alternativement, il pourrait être disposé à l'intérieur.About the
