Definitions

  • Ice skates including hockey skates, speed skates, figure skates and other types of skates, include boots with metal blades attached to the bottom, used to propel oneself across an ice surface.
  • the metal blades have sharp edges.
  • poor maintenance practices such as improper or inconsistent sharpening, and damage from, for example, misuse, can often result in poor edge quality. Such damage can be caused by a blade coming in contact with a surface other than ice.
  • These "bad" edges can have a significant effect on skating ability.
  • other types of skates including roller skates and inline skates, include boots with wheels attached to the bottom. Although these wheels are not damaged as easily as ice skate blades, they may not be appropriate for all surfaces or all situations.
  • ice skaters It is common for ice skaters to walk on surfaces other than ice while wearing skates, such as the rubber floor surfacing leading from dressing areas, which may be a considerable distance away.
  • someone skating on a pond or other outdoor skating surface may walk in their skates from a car, warming hut or other location to and from the edge of the ice while wearing skates. Walking in skates over these various non-ice surfaces can be hazardous to the blades and may cause damage to them, such as nicks and dulling, thereby making the blades less effective.
  • the reduced surface area offered by the skate blade or a traditional narrow skate guard in comparison to the width of a boot of the skate or other shoe, fails to provide adequate stability for the person and could potentially lead to injury.
  • the minimal surface area of the lower travel surface of an ice skate blade or an ice skate blade within a conventional blade guard provides little to no lateral support, which could lead to serious ankle injuries for a skater.
  • skaters In order to prevent damage to ice skate blades, skaters typically use a covering device to protect the blades from damage.
  • Existing devices for protecting skate travel surfaces provide a narrow cover that slips over and is secured to the skate. Although such devices do prevent damage to ice skate blades, the devices are not ideal for walking great distances in skates.
  • Conventional blade guards are not much wider than the blade of the skate, thus providing little lateral or side-to-side support for the person wearing the skates.
  • GB536193 discloses a skate shoe apparatus according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • US5513881 , US1982524 and US189923 also disclose guards for blades of ice skates.
  • Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a skate shoe apparatus and may be provided for ice skates, such as hockey skates, figure skates and speed skates, and/or roller skates, such as traditional roller skates or inline skates.
  • the skate shoe apparatus prevents damage to the travel surface of an ice skate when an ice skater wearing the skate walks on non-skating surfaces (e.g., walking in ice skates from a dressing area to the ice or across a parking lot to an arena or walking in traditional roller skates or inline skates in a store or restaurant). Further, the skate shoe apparatus is shaped to promote stability and ease of walkability while wearing skates.
  • the skate shoe apparatus includes a base portion having a top side, a bottom side, a left side and a right side, the base portion having a heel end and a toe end, and at least one channel wall extending from the top side of the base portion.
  • the channel wall(s) e.g. a left and right wall on a single skate shoe
  • the skate shoe includes at least one support member such as a strut or a brace extending from an upper region of the channel wall(s) to the top surface of the base portion.
  • a tread may be defined on the bottom side of the base portion, thereby providing a gripping surface for traction of the base portion on a ground surface.
  • the support members are triangularly shaped, such that the hypotenuse of a triangle formed by the support member with the at least one channel wall and the base portion extends from the upper region of the at least one channel wall to an outer region of the top surface of the base portion, the base of the triangle extends laterally along the top surface of the base portion from an intersection of a lower region of the at least one channel wall and an inner region of the top surface of the base portion to the outer region of the top surface of the base portion, and the height of the triangle extends along the at least one channel wall and the inner region of the top surface of the base portion to the upper region of the at least one channel wall and the inner region of the top surface of the base portion to the upper region of the at least one channel wall.
  • the skate shoe apparatus further includes a perimeter lip extending upward from the outer region of the top surface of the base portion from the heel end to the toe end and the base portion, the at least one channel wall, the perimeter lip are constructed from a common molded material and are integrally formed with each other, the combination of the base portion, the at least one channel wall, the perimeter lip providing rigidity to the skate shoe apparatus.
  • the common molded material may be a rubberized material, a semi-flexible polymer material, and a solid material.
  • the base portion, the channel wall, and the tread may be constructed from a common molded material and may be integrally formed with each other.
  • the channel walls may include a left channel wall and a right channel wall, with the left and right channel walls having inner sides spaced apart at a distance defining the slot to receive the lower travel surface of the skate. Further, a thickness of the channel wall may provide lateral rigidity for the skate.
  • the base portion may have a width that is substantially equivalent to the width of a boot of a skate. Further a density of support members may be greater at a center region of the base portion. Additionally, drain holes may be provided in the base portion under the channel. In other embodiments, a shank may be disposed in the base portion providing rigidity.
  • the tread defined on the bottom side of the base portion may include lugs to provide added traction, and the tread defined on the bottom side of the base portion may be curved at a toe and a heel of the tread.
  • an attachment device may be provided for securing the skate shoe apparatus to a skate.
  • the attachment device may include a strap, and the strap may pass through a slot in the base portion or through a hole in the skate above the lower travel surface of the skate.
  • the attachment device may include spring bands extending over the lower travel surface of the skate.
  • skate shoe apparatus such as by molding a material into a mold to form the skate shoe apparatus as described above.

  • the left and right channel walls 210a, 210b have thicknesses 214a, 215b, respectively, that provide lateral rigidity for the skate.
  • the perimeter lip 217 also has a thickness 218 that provides rigidity to the perimeter lip 217 and the base 205.
  • a density of support members 220 may be greater at a center region 245 of the base portion 205.
  • the increased density of support members 220 at the center region 245 provides additional rigidity of the base portion 205 at a region where an attachment device (not shown) (e.g., strap 160 of FIG. 1 ) attaches to the base portion 205.
  • an attachment device e.g., strap 160 of FIG. 1
  • greater forces are exerted on the base portion 205, thus causing an increased chance of deformity of the base portion 205.
  • the additional support provided by the increased density of support members 220 counteracts these greater forces.
  • the base portion 205 may be curved at a toe end 241 and a heel end 242 to provide a curved surface to walk on in a natural heel-to-toe manner.
