Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of clothing; it relates more particularly to a boot-type footwear intended to be worn by an individual.
  • the upper and lower parts are secured together by a hinge structure whose axis of rotation extends at least approximately coaxially with respect to the axis of flexion / extension of the ankle.
  • Such boots are for example described in the document CH-481 592 or DE-2,025,283 .
  • a boot of this kind is for example illustrated in the document US-2003/0145484 .
  • the present invention thus relates to a new boot structure whose rod is made in one piece in a flexible waterproof material, which aims to improve the comfort of the user, especially during the movements of flexion / extension of his ankle, while controlling the supination and pronation movements of the ankle.
  • the boot according to the invention is distinguished by the particular structure of its rod which comprises, at its portion intended to cover the user's ankle, two frontal zones, one anterior and the other posterior, having a reduced stiffness (or in other words an increased flexibility or flexibility) relative to the rest of the stem.
  • the article of footwear according to the invention comprises a sole extended by a one-piece rod, advantageously without yaw, in a flexible flexible material which comprises at least one layer made of an elastomeric material;
  • this rod comprises (i) a lower part, intended to cover the user's foot, and having two ends arranged along an anterior / posterior axis: an anterior end located on the toe side and a rear end located on the heel side, (ii) an upper portion having a longitudinal axis for covering at least a portion of the leg of said individual, and (iii) a medial portion for covering the ankle of said individual, which middle portion has two opposite end faces; an anterior and a posterior respectively oriented on the side of the anterior and posterior ends of said lower part, and two opposite lateral faces, connecting said two end faces and through which the axis of flexion / extension of the ankle passes.
  • the middle part of the stem is composed of several zones having different stiffnesses, namely: (i) two distinct frontal zones of folding, one anterior and the other posterior extending respectively at least at its anterior and posterior faces, and (ii) two lateral holding zones formed at its lateral faces and separating said frontal zones.
  • This layer made of an elastomeric material extends at least at said middle portion, and in particular at said two folding front zones and said two lateral holding zones.
  • the front fold zones each comprise a generally U-shaped section, in an anterior / posterior sectional plane, which consists of a front portion, formed at one of the anterior / posterior faces of the medial portion, extended by two side portions each extending over a portion of the length of the side faces; and which frontal areas have a lower stiffness with respect to the stiffness of said lateral zones and with respect to the stiffness of the adjoining portions of said lower and upper portions of the rod.
  • these frontal zones of folding ensure optimal support of the ankle by a limitation, or even a suppression, lateral movements of the supination and pronation type.
  • the present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the footwear item described above.
  • This method which comprises at least (i) parts laying steps constituting the different parts of the rod, preferably made of rubber, and (ii) a step of assembling said parts, is characterized in that at least two said parts are positioned to constitute the frontal zones of folding of the median part of the rod, which parts constituting the frontal zones of folding have a lower stiffness compared to the stiffness of the lateral zones of the median part of the rod and with respect to the stiffness of the lower and upper parts of the stem.
  • the boot 1 As represented on the Figures 1 to 3 and conventionally, the boot 1 according to the invention comprises a sole 2 extended by a rod 3.
  • the bottom 4 of the shaft portion has two ends, namely - a front end 4a, intended to be located on the side of the toes of the individual, and - a rear end 4b , intended to be located on the side of his heel.
  • the middle part 6 of the rod 3 can be considered as consisting of two pairs of faces, arranged opposite and at a distance from one another.
  • Two opposite end faces, one anterior 6a and a posterior 6b, respectively are oriented on the anterior ends of the side 4 a and 4 b posterior of the lower part 4 (the rear face 6b is intended to cover in particular the Achilles tendon (or calcaneal tendon)).
  • Two side faces 6c connect for their both end faces 6a and 6b (only one of them is visible in Figures 1 to 3 ).
  • These side faces 6 c are intended to be at or at least approximately to the level of the malleoli of the ankle.
  • This boot upper 3 is made of a flexible material.
  • the corresponding material is here chosen from flexible waterproof materials; it comprises for this purpose at least one layer preferably made of an elastomeric material, which may be chosen from natural elastomeric compounds such as rubber, or synthetic elastomeric compounds such as polyvinyl chloride.
  • the rod 3 comprises a median part 6 which is more flexible or flexible than the lower 4 and upper 5 parts.
  • the advantage of such a rod 3 is to generate less effort and reduce the tightening points on the ankle of the individual, particularly during forward and / or backward flexion movements between its lower parts 4 and upper 5, while maintaining resistance to lateral movements of the ankle (supination and pronation).
  • These frontal zones of folding 7 and 8 have a stiffness which is lower (i) with respect to the stiffness of the lateral zones of maintenance 9 and (ii) with respect to the stiffness of the lower parts 4 and higher 5 of the rod 3 (or at least one strip or adjoining portion of these parts 4 and 5).
  • the frontal zones of folding 7 and 8 have a resistance to deformation (advantageously of the elastic deformation type) which is lower than that of the lateral zones of maintenance 9.
  • the frontal areas 7 and 8 each have a horizontal section which is generally U-shaped, open towards each other.
  • horizontal section means a sectional plane approximately parallel to that passing through the sole 2, or parallel to the longitudinal axis 4 'of the lower portion 4.
  • these front fold areas 7 and 8 are each composed of (i) a front portion 7a and 8a, respectively formed in the anterior posterior faces 6 a and 6 b of the middle portion 6, and (ii) two side portions 7b and 8b, extending the front portion 7a / 8 at the side faces 6c, over part of their length.
  • the side portions 7b, 8b of the end fold areas 7, 8 each have a generally V-shaped inclined to the side, that is to say with an axis oriented parallel or at least approximately parallel, with respect to the anterior / posterior axis 4 '.
  • flexible frontal zones 6 and 6b each have here a general form bellows.
  • these flexible front zones 7 and 8 each comprise several folding lines 7 'and 8' which extend over their entire width, that is to say from the end of one of the side portions 7. b, 8b at the end of the other side portion 7 b, 8 b.
  • each front zone 7, 8 meet at the end of the side portions 7b , 8b ; they are further regularly spaced from each other by a regular angular sector, or at least approximately regular.
  • the fold lines 7 ', 8' are here three in number; in general, this number is advantageously between 1 and 10.
  • the frontal zones 7, 8 are made of a first elastomer material whose hardness is less than the hardness of a second material constituent elastomer of the lateral zones 9.
  • the front zones 7 and 8 may be made of a first elastomer material having a hardness of between 30 and 40 Shore A; the lateral zones 9 are made of a second elastomer material whose hardness is between 50 and 60 Shore A.
  • the front fold areas 7 and 8 each have a height, at their front portion 7a or 8a, between 10 and 30 mm.
  • the side portions 7b and 8b have a length of between 10 and 80 mm, and moreover have an angle, at rest, advantageously between 20 ° and 40 °.
  • the lateral zones 9 have a stiffness greater than that of the frontal zones of folding 7, 8. They favor the flexion / extension movement, while limiting the phenomena of lateral deformations of the supination and pronation type (c '). that is rotations along an axis parallel to the anterior / posterior axis 4 ').
  • the flexible front zones 7 and 8 are here bordered by a monoblock structure of reinforcement 10, whose function is to promote their deformations in folding / deployment, and to limit the possibilities of lateral deformations.
  • This reinforcing structure 10 consists of two bands, one anterior 10a surrounding the front end area 6a, and the other posterior 10 b surrounding the rear end zone 6 b.
  • reinforcing tapes 10 a and 10 b are joined at side faces 6c of the middle portion 6, and more precisely at the lateral zones of retention 9.
  • this reinforcing structure 10 is advantageously greater (i) with respect to the stiffness of the flexible front zones 6 a , 6 b and also (ii) with respect to the stiffness of the adjoining portions of the lower 4 and upper 5 parts of the rod 1.
  • the front frontal zone 7 undergoes a folding or folding phenomenon; simultaneously, the posterior frontal zone 8 undergoes a phenomenon of unfolding, deployment or elongation.
  • the anterior frontal zone 7 undergoes the phenomenon of deployment or elongation and the posterior frontal zone 8 undergoes the folding phenomenon.
  • frontal zones 7 and 8 bellows undergo a folding on themselves, which reduces or even eliminates the pressure points on the ankle.
  • the boot 1 described above can be obtained and manufactured by the implementation of a method as detailed in relation to the figure 4 .
  • the various suitably positioned parts are then secured hermetically by an appropriate operation, for example vulcanization type.
  • the parts 27 and 28 intended to constitute the frontal zones 7 and 8 of the median part 6 of the rod 3 have a lower stiffness with respect to the stiffness of the parts constituting the lower parts 4 and upper 5 of the rod 3.
  • the slap 22 advantageously comprises an upper rim having two extensions 22a, intended to extend at the level of the lateral zones 9 while preserving the free frontal zones 7 and 8 (as illustrated figure 4C ).
  • the area 23 and the front casing 24 each have a lower edge 23 a and 24 a that covers the extensions 22 has a vamp 22, again while maintaining free the end zones 7 and 8 (as shown on the Figures 4D and 4E ).
  • the boot described here can be obtained by injection, including the rod 3, a flexible material adapted for example poly (vinyl chloride).
  • the folding front zones 7, 8 are advantageously obtained by a local reduction of the thickness of the flexible material.
