Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rigid-shell ski boot comprising a hull bottom and a collar hingedly connected by means of a connecting ring.
  • a ski boot requires rigidity and significant resistance because it undergoes many efforts during its use. Strong rigidity is also necessary to achieve a good performance of the shoe which, as an intermediary between the skier and the ski, transmits the efforts of the skier to the ski to guide the latter.
  • the boot must also allow the skier to open it for putting on and off and allowing him to flex his knees forward to ski. This flexion is reached by the articulation of the collar on the shell bottom, the latter being secured to the ski.
  • This arrangement requires a hinge axis between the collar and the bottom of the hull, which axis plays an important role since it participates in the transmission of the efforts of the skier to the ski.
  • EP2 620 068 discloses a ski boot with a reinforced hinge.
  • a general object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement for the optimized connection between a collar and a shell bottom, which optimizes the performance of the shoe.
  • a first object of the present invention is to provide a ski boot for the efficient transmission of the efforts of the skier to the ski.
  • a second optional object of the present invention is to provide a ski boot for adjusting the inclination of the collar relative to the bottom of the shell.
  • the shoe reaches these objects by means of a specific connecting ring hingedly connecting the collar and the shell bottom, which guarantees a good transmission of efforts and a good behavior of the shoe ski.
  • the connecting ring comprises a blocking surface arranged in an opening of the shell bottom, so as to prevent the rotation of the connecting ring relative to the shell bottom, and a rotational surface arranged in an opening of the collar of so as to guide the rotation of the collar relative to the shell bottom around this second surface.
  • This rotation surface advantageously has a large dimension.
  • the vertical direction refers to the direction from bottom to top, that is to say from the sole of the shoe to the top of the shoe.
  • the longitudinal direction designates the perpendicular direction in the vertical direction, oriented from the back to the front of the shoe.
  • the transverse direction is the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal and vertical directions.
  • the two longitudinal and transverse directions define a horizontal plane, in which is located substantially the sole of the ski boot.
  • inner surface will refer to the surface of an inward facing member of the ski boot, the foot side, and the term “outer surface” will refer to a surface of an outward facing member. of the ski boot.
  • the figure 1 illustrates an alpine ski boot 1 according to one embodiment of the invention, which comprises a rigid outer shell, for example formed of injected plastic material, for example polyurethane, or polyamide or polyolefin.
  • This rigid shell comprises in particular a collar 20 hinged to a bottom of shell 30 around a connecting axis via a connecting ring 10.
  • the bottom of shell 30 extends, in the vertical direction, from the running sole 6 to beyond the level of the axis of articulation and connection with the collar 20.
  • This axis of articulation is positioned laterally, at a height substantially at or slightly above the malleolus of the foot of a skier, even at the level of his ankle.
  • a comfort slipper 5 is inserted into the rigid shell.
  • the sole 6 is extended towards its two front and rear ends by sidewalks 7 of a format adapted for cooperation with the jaws of a ski boot binding device, which allows the bottom shell 30 to be held on the ski, while that the collar 20 remains articulated about its axis of articulation substantially transverse to the bottom of the shell.
  • the invention relates more specifically to the articulated connection between the collar 20 and the shell bottom 30, via the connecting ring 10.
  • Figures 2 to 5 illustrate more precisely the connection arrangement between the collar 20 and the shell bottom 30 according to the embodiment of the invention.
  • the shell bottom 30 comprises a through opening 34, of dimension provided for the passage of a nut 19 from its inner surface. It further comprises an opening 31, through or alternatively not completely through arranged from its outer surface. According to this embodiment, this opening 31 is non-through and has a square section.
  • the collar 20 has a through opening 24 formed from its inner wall by a first cylindrical opening 22.
  • the axis of rotation 15 of the collar 20 relative to the bottom of the shell 30 corresponds to the axis which passes through the center of the opening 24.
  • the collar 20 From its outer surface, the collar 20 comprises a second, cylindrical opening 23, non-through, that is to say, it does not extend over the entire thickness of the collar 20.
  • the two cylindrical openings 22, 23 of the collar 20 form two coaxial cylinder portions and of different diameter.
  • openings arranged in the walls of the collar 20 and the bottom of shell 30 are provided to come into correspondence during assembly of the ski boot.
  • a connecting ring 10 is then arranged in these openings, to allow the articulated connection of the collar 20 and the shell bottom 30.
  • the connecting ring 10 comprises three complementary parts over its thickness. This thickness is measured in the substantially transverse direction of the shoe.
  • This connecting ring 10 has a through opening 14 whose center is aligned with the center of the opening 34 formed in the shell bottom 30. As shown in FIGS. Figures 1 to 5 according to this embodiment, the center of the opening 14 corresponds to the axis of rotation 15 of the rotation surface 12, around which the collar 20 rotates by its surface 22. More generally, in this embodiment, the centers of the openings 14, 24 and 34 are aligned with the axis of rotation 15.
  • a first portion of the connecting ring 10 forms a locking surface 11, intended for a housing in the opening 31 formed in the outer surface of the
  • this locking surface 11 thus has a section substantially close to a square, of dimensions corresponding to those of the corresponding housing of the bottom shell 30.
  • the blocking surface 11 of the ring 10 has a square cross-section of between 0.7 and 1.5 centimeters, preferably 1 centimeter, and a thickness of between 0.1 and 0.7 centimeters, preferably 0, 3 centimeters. It allows the locking of the rotation of the connecting ring relative to the bottom shell 30.
  • this connecting ring 10 comprises a second cylindrical intermediate portion, forming a peripheral rotating surface 12, housed within the cylindrical opening 22 made from the inner surface of the collar 20, the wall of which is intended to cooperate with less clearance with this peripheral rotational surface 12 of the connecting ring 10.
  • This arrangement makes it possible to achieve a rotational mobility of the collar 20 relative to the connecting ring 10, more particularly around the peripheral rotation surface 12, and consequently a rotational mobility of the collar 20 relative to the shell bottom 30 around the axis of rotation 15.
  • the third portion 13 of the ring link 10 presents a larger dimension, which forms a head, which is housed in the non-through opening 23 on the side of the outer surface of the collar 20, which forms a stop for the connecting ring and prevents any relative displacement of the connecting ring and the collar in transverse direction, and in particular avoids the exit of the collar to the outside of the shoe.
  • This third part 13 has a truncation 16 making it possible to visualize the orientation of the connecting ring 10.
  • the truncation 16 also allows the disassembly of the connecting ring 10 by means of a suitable tool, for example a flat head screwdriver.
  • a screw 18 is inserted inside the connecting ring 10, through the through opening 14 of the connecting ring, by the outer surface of the ski boot, and cooperates with a nut 19 inserted into the opposite by the inner surface of the shell bottom of the shoe.
  • the total thickness of the connecting ring 10 substantially corresponds to the thickness of the walls of the collar 20 and the bottom shell 30, so that in the final position, the connecting ring 10 is substantially completely inserted into the thicknesses of these elements.
  • the thickness of the shell bottom is in general between 0.3 and 0.6 cm, preferably substantially equal to 0.4 cm
  • the thickness of the collar is in general between 0.4 and 0.7 centimeters, preferably substantially 0.5 centimeters.
  • the connecting ring 10 has an outgrowth positioned beyond the outer surface of the collar 20.
  • the thickness of the first portion forming a locking surface 11 of the connecting ring corresponds to the thickness of the opening 31 of square section of the shell bottom 30.
  • the end of the ring link 10 thus comes into abutment within the thickness of the shell bottom 30.
  • a link without freedom is thus obtained between the connecting ring 10 and the shell bottom 30 and ensures the locking of the rotation of the ring relative at the bottom of the hull.
  • the total thickness of the second and third parts 12, 13 of the connecting ring 10 substantially corresponds to the thickness of the wall of the collar.
  • the thickness of the second part is the most important because it forms a cylindrical section whose peripheral wall forms a rotational surface 12 for the collar 20.
  • the third portion 13 comes into outer abutment, preventing any transverse movement of the ring. connection 10 relative to the collar 20, and avoiding the displacement of the collar transversely outwards.
  • the front surface 17 of the second part comes into contact against the outer surface of the shell bottom, which is arranged to form a flat receiving surface 37 to ensure a plane contact and optimal support.
  • the connecting ring 10 is in a one-piece form, comprising a locking surface 11 and a rotating surface 12. According to a simplified variant, it could not have a third part 13 forming a head, or this part could be formed by a separate component, such as a washer or for example by a portion belonging to the screw 18. According to another variant, the connecting ring 10 may be in several distinct elements associated with each other. Naturally, the connecting ring 10 may have other shapes and features.
  • the blocking surface 11 could have another section.
  • this section is in the form of a polygon comprising between three and six sides, in particular quadrilateral for example square as shown, or hexagonal.
  • the rotating surface is chosen large, and preferably has a surface greater than the blocking surface and / or has a section larger than the size of the section of the blocking surface. The sides of this polygon may be rectilinear or curved, curved.
  • the strength of the behavior of the ring in the shell is obtained by a sufficient thickness of the blocking surface, in particular of the square shape, and a sufficient length of the sides of the polygon, including the square.
  • the connecting ring 10 may be made of metal material of aluminum type, but also of plastic, in particular fiber-filled plastic.
  • the connecting ring 10 may also allow the lateral adjustment of the inclination of the collar 20 relative to the shell bottom 30, with respect to a vertical longitudinal plane, in order to optimize the edge grip and / or to compensate for a specific morphology of the skier.
  • This inclination is also often referred to by the Anglo-Saxon expression "canting".
  • the connecting ring 10 has an eccentric architecture, that is to say that the center o of the through opening 14 of the connecting ring 10 and its blocking surface 11 does not coincide with the center c of the rotational surface 12, disposed on the axis of rotation around which the collar 20 rotates, as shown in FIGS. Figures 7a to 7c .
  • FIGS 8a to 8c illustrate a connecting ring according to another configuration, wherein the eccentricity described above, that is to say the offset between the center o of the through opening of the blocking surface 11 and the center c of the surface of rotation 12, is simply reduced. This allows a lower amplitude, finer canting setting.
  • Figures 9a to 9c illustrate the non-eccentric connecting ring, as already described above with reference to Figures 2 to 5 .
  • a skier can have the three connecting rings for his shoe, and thus choose the binding ring which seems to him adapted to the intended use of his ski boot. This gives him flexibility on the possible settings of the canting of his shoe.
  • the ski boot can be manufactured without additional cost, according to a conventional method, and has the advantage of better performance by an enlarged rotation surface of the collar, while by providing the possibility of a simple canting setting to implement and a mechanical strength of the assembly is provided by the blocking surface of the ring inserted into a shape dug in the lateral sides of the shell bottom.
  • the connecting ring as described above can be used on each lateral side of the shoe, or alternatively on one side, the other side can be equipped with a different conventional connection.
  • more or less eccentric rings may be used in combination, such as for example a 0 ° ring, neutral ring, on one of the lateral sides of the shoe, in combination with a ring at 0.5 ° on the other side of the shoe.
