Description
- This invention relates to a ski boot or off-track ski boot comprising perfected hinge means.
- Ski boots or off-track ski boots comprise a foot portion, typically fixed, and suitable to accommodate the user's foot, and a leg portion, typically hinged to said foot portion, and suitable to accommodate the tibial portion of the user.
- The leg portion is hinged to the foot portion by hinge means, such as typically a pair of pins arranged in correspondence of the user's malleolus.
- These pins are portions of the boot subject to significant mechanical stresses and, therefore, are very strained.
- In fact, the leg portion transmits very high mechanical stresses to the foot portion also by means of the hinging pins, which are subjected to combined shearing and flexion stresses.
- For this reason, the pins of the prior art are made with extremely resistant materials and with significant thicknesses to ensure the reliability of such components over time.
- It should also to be noted that the pins are made of metal materials and are inserted into portions of the foot and leg portions that are, instead, made of polymeric materials: therefore, in the known solutions, it is necessary to over-dimension the portions of the foot and leg portions that receive such pins which, otherwise, would end up scoring and mechanically weakening said portions of foot and leg portions.
- Therefore, the solutions of the known art described above have disadvantages due mainly to the fact that they require over-dimensioning both the pins and the portions of the foot and leg portions that receive the latter.
- It follows, then, that the known solutions, to ensure the required reliability, are heavy and aesthetically unattractive because the shapes are constrained by the necessary over-dimensioning of the pins and plastic portions of the foot and leg portions.
- The purpose of this invention is to provide a ski and/or off-track ski boot that solves the drawbacks cited with reference to the known art.
- These drawbacks and limitations are solved by an off-track ski boot according to
claim 1. - Other embodiments of the boot according to the invention are described in the subsequent claims.
- Further characteristics and advantages of this invention will be more understandable from the following description of its preferred and non-limiting examples of embodiments, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a ski boot equipped with hinging means according to this invention; -
Figures 2 ,3 and 4 are sectional views of a detail of the boot ofFigure 1 , in three different and consecutive phases of assembly of the boot. - The members, or parts of members, in common between the embodiments described below will be indicated with the same reference numbers.
- With reference to the aforesaid figures, the

- Also the definitions of
foot portion 8 andleg portion 12 should be considered in a general and not restrictive manner: this invention presents no type of limitation with respect to shapes, sizes, materials, type of foot portion and leg portion and therefore the invention also covers types offoot portion 8 andleg portion 12 that at least partially embrace the foot and the upper part of the leg, i.e., the shin of the skier. - For this reason, the type of boot shown in the figures should be considered as a non-limiting example for the purposes of the field of application of this invention.
- In the type of off-track ski boot, as in the case of
Figure 1 , theleg portion 12 is hinged to thefoot portion 8 with respect to hinge means 16 defining an axis of rotation X-X, so as to be able to rotate with respect to the foot portion about said axis of rotation X-X. - Preferably, there is provided a pair of hinge means 16 arranged on
side parts leg portion 12. - The leg portion for example comprises closure means 18 to allow the opening/closing of flaps arranged in correspondence of said
side parts - Preferably, the said hinge means 16 identify a horizontal rotation axis X-X, i.e., parallel to a sole 18 of the
boot 4. - The
leg portion 12 is hinged to thefoot portion 8 so as to be able to rotate relative to thefoot portion 8 around said hinge means 16 both forwards, i.e., towards atip 20 of theboot 4, and backwards towards aheel 22 of theboot 4. - The hinge means 16 pass through and rotatably connect between them a fastening portion of the
leg portion 24 and a fastening portion of thefoot portion 28. - Said fastening portions of the leg portion and the
foot portion leg portion 12 and of thefoot portion 8 suitably shaped and drilled to rotatably accommodate the hinge means 16. - In particular, the hinge means 16 comprise at least one pin 32 having a
head 36 and ashank 40, wherein theshank 40 passes through said fastening portions of the leg portion and of thefoot portion head 36 interfaces with the fastening portion of theleg portion 24. - Advantageously, the
head 36 of the pin 32, in correspondence with alower face 44 facing the fastening portion of theleg portion 24, comprises a shaped portion 48 which creates a shape coupling with the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 so as to obtain an undercut and a constraint in the radial direction R, said radial direction R being incident and perpendicular to said axis of rotation X-X. - According to an embodiment, said shaped portion 48 of the
head 36 of the pin 32 comprises an arched surface 52 that delimits a seat 56 of thehead 36, and wherein the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 comprises aprotuberance 60 counter-shaped in relation to said seat 56 of thehead 36 so as to be housed in the latter. - Preferably, the seat 56 of the
head 36 and theprotuberance 60 of the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 are axisymmetric with respect to said axis of rotation X-X. - According to a further embodiment, the shaped portion 48 of the
head 36 comprises aprotuberance 60 that protrudes toward the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 and the latter comprises a seat 56 housing saidprotuberance 60. - Also in this case, preferably
protuberance 60 of the shaped portion 48 of thehead 36 and the seat 56 of the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 are axisymmetric with respect to said axis of rotation X-X. - According to an embodiment, the
head 36 of the pin 32 comprises aperimeter appendage 64, axisymmetric in relation to the axis of rotation X-X, which has a truncated-conical shape that widens when moving from thehead 36 towards the fastening portion of theleg portion 24. - Said
perimeter appendage 64 creates a radial undercut that encloses and radially delimits the fastening portion of theleg portion 24. - For example, the
perimeter appendage 64 is inserted in acircumferential groove 68 derived on the fastening portion of theleg portion 24. - Preferably, the
head 36 comprises aconcave portion 72, on the side opposite theleg portion 12 and thelower face 44, so as to realise a discharge and relief for the pin 32. Furthermore, saidconcave portion 72 reduces overall dimensions of the boot in correspondence of the hinge means 16 and reduces the risk of collision/breakage of the hinge means themselves. - The
shank 40 comprises afirst section 76 that interfaces with the fastening portion of theleg portion 24 and asecond section 80 that interfaces with the fastening portion of thefoot portion 28, wherein said first andsecond sections first section 76 being greater than the diameter of thesecond section 80. - The
first section 76 is joined to thehead 36 by an axisymmetric connectingwall 84 that defines said shaped portion 48, which creates a shape-coupling with the fastening portion of theleg portion 24, so as to obtain an undercut and a constraint in the radial direction R. - The
first section 76 narrows radially with arecess 88 in correspondence to thesecond section 80, saidrecess 88 defining an abutment between thefirst section 76 of theshank 40 and the fastening portion of thefoot portion 28. - The
second section 80 comprises closure means 92 that pass through the fastening portion of thefoot portion 28 and are bent radially against said fastening portion of thefoot portion 28, so as to create an undercut for the fastening portion of thefoot portion 28 along the axis of rotation X-X. - For example, said closure means 92 comprise a bent cylinder; preferably, said closure means include a central hole that facilitates the plastic deformation and bending against the fastening portion of the
leg portion 28, in addition to contributing to the lightening of the pin 32. - It is also possible to use a nut and a screw as closure means 92.
- As can be appreciated from the description, the ski boot or off-track ski boot according to the invention allows overcoming the drawbacks presented in the prior art.
- In particular, the hinge means of this invention are, at the same time, extremely light on the one hand but also reliable and robust on the other.
- In fact, thanks to its particular shape, the pin is overall lighter with respect to a pin of the prior art, which provides a greater thickness as well as the use of a head convex towards the outside.
- It is possible to reduce the thickness of the pin of this invention thanks to the particular shape of both the head and body of the pin, which allow distributing the flexion and shearing stresses received by the leg portion so as not to have excessive local concentrations of stresses that would, instead, require the special thickening required, precisely, by the known solutions.
- In fact, the conformation of the lower portion of the pin head allows obtaining a radial undercut in respect of the portion of the leg portion that surrounds the pin itself. Therefore, the head is intimately fixed to the leg portion so as to distribute the shear/flexion stresses on a larger portion of the leg portion itself. This avoids having to over-dimension/strengthen the portion of leg portion surrounding the housing seating of the pin, since it obtains a more uniform distribution of the stresses, i.e., it avoids any punctiform/local concentration of the stresses themselves.
- As for the shank of the pin, it has a dual diameter: a first section in correspondence of the head has a larger diameter and a second section, on the side opposite the first section, which has a smaller diameter.
- The first section, of larger diameter, interfaces with the leg portion and cooperates with the head to obtain more uniform distribution of the stresses transmitted by the leg portion itself.
- Thanks to this uniform distribution of the stresses, it is thus possible to reduce the thickness of the pin head, which can then provide a portion concave towards the outside, lighter with respect to the convex pin heads of the prior art.
- The second section has a smaller diameter than the first section and is thinner and therefore lighter, since it receives less mechanical stress compared to the first section.
- In addition, the second section of the shank also includes the tailstock, which has the function of realising an undercut on the side opposite to the head, to ensure the axial locking between the pin, leg portion and foot portion.
- From the above, one can see that the particular geometry/shape of the pin allows reducing the thickness of the pin itself and the portions of the leg portion and foot portion engaged in housing of the pin, since a uniform distribution of the stresses is obtained and local concentrations of mechanical stresses are avoided.
- A person skilled in the art, in order to satisfy contingent and specific needs, may make numerous modifications and variations to the boots described above, all however contained within the scope of the invention as defined by the following claims.
