Definitions

  • the present application relates to a strap for holding and tightening for a sports shoe. More particularly, the present invention relates to a so-called "lower leg” tightening strap, because it maintains and tightens the upper part of a sports shoe against the lower leg of a user.
  • Such straps are used in ski boots and in particular in shoes that have a rigid shell and an internal comfort element called inner booties.
  • these lower leg straps comprise a first strap portion, for example anchored to the lateral side of the collar, a second strap portion, then anchored to the medial side of the collar, pairing means of the two strap portions and means for adjusting the length of one of the two strap portions.
  • the document EP 1 484 992 discloses such a device wherein the pairing means is a loop attached to one end of the first strap portion and adapted to receive the passage of the second webbing portion.
  • the length adjustment means are, for their part, constituted by two complementary portions of self-gripping tape (velcro) attached to the second strap portion.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a lower leg clamp which will in turn improve comfort or performance.
  • the object of the present invention is also to provide a clamping device of the lower leg for a sports shoe that allows a greater modularity of use for the user.
  • the object of the invention is also to simplify the use of the clamping device of the lower leg for the user.
  • the first anchoring means is positioned on one side, medial or lateral, of the shoe and in that the second anchoring means is positioned on the other side, medial or lateral.
  • a third anchoring means is provided for connecting the second webbing portion to the shell.
  • This third anchoring means may comprise a flange and optionally a loop through which the second strap portion passes.
  • the second anchoring means comprises a ring integral with the shell and in which passes the second strap portion.
  • the second anchoring means comprises a hook integral with one of the two following elements; the shell or the second strap portion, said hook cooperating with a ring secured to the other of said two elements.
  • the figure 1 discloses a ski boot equipped with an optional strap according to a first embodiment of the invention.
  • the ski boot 1 consists of a rigid shell 2, itself having a shell bottom 22 surmounted by a collar 21.
  • the bottom shell 22 and the collar 21 are for example obtained by plastic injection type PA, PU, PE or any other injectable material. They can also be made using composite materials, in particular using fibers (carbon, glass, etc.) embedded in a thermosetting or thermoplastic resin.
  • An inner liner 3 is inserted inside the shell 2 to ensure the comfort of the user.
  • the liner is composed of an assembly, glued and / or sewn and / or welded different elements whose details will not be included in this description.
  • the ski boot 1 comprises a plurality of closure device 5 as well as an optional clamping device 4.
  • the figures 2 and 4 describe a partial section of the shoe in a substantially horizontal plane.
  • the collar 21 comprises a rear portion 211 intended to be facing the rear part of the lower leg of the user.
  • This posterior portion 211 is extended respectively on the medial side and on the lateral side by medial and radial overlaps 212, 213.
  • the sliding of the medial overlap 212 on the radial overlap 213 makes it possible to adapt the circumference of the collar 21 to the user.
  • the optional clamping device 4 of the lower leg of the user comprises a first strap portion 41 fixed by means of a first anchoring means 43 to the collar 21.
  • the first anchor 43 is secured integrally and substantially permanently on the medial side of the collar.
  • the first anchoring means 43 may for example comprise a rivet or a screw-nut assembly.
  • means are provided to change the precise position of the first anchoring means. For example, a high position and a low position may be provided for better adaptation to the morphology of the user.
  • a modification of the position of the first anchoring means may be provided, it is nevertheless considered that the fixing of the first anchoring means is essentially permanent insofar as the first portion of strap will always be anchored to the collar, which that is the precise position.
  • the optional clamping device comprises a second strap portion 42 which together with the first strap portion 41 provides the surrounding of the lower leg of the user.
  • Matching means 44 and adjustment means 45 in length of one of the two webbing portions are provided to ensure the adaptation to the circumference desired by the user.
  • the pairing means 44 consist of a loop 441 which is attached to the end of the first strap portion 41 and through which the second portion of the strap passes. 42.
  • the length adjusting means 45 comprise two strips of self-gripping material, for example of the Velcro type, which are fastened to the second strap portion 42.
  • a second, non-permanent anchoring means 46 is provided for connecting the second strap portion 42 to the collar on the opposite side to the side on which the first anchoring means 43 is attached.
  • the second anchoring means 46 comprises a hook 461 capable of cooperating with a ring 462.
  • the ring 462 is fixed to the second strap portion 42 by means of a first band 421.
  • the hook 461 is attached to the collar 21 via a second band 422.
  • a third anchoring means 47 is provided between the second strap portion 42 and the collar.
  • This third anchoring means is essentially permanent. That is to say that in the daily use of the ski boot, the user will not be led to undo it.
  • the third anchoring means 47 consists of a loop 471 attached to one end of a flange 472. The other end of the flange 472 is attached to the collar 21.
  • the third anchoring means consists of a simple flange 472, one end of which is attached to the second strap portion 42 and the other end of the flange is attached to the collar 21.
  • the third anchoring means 47 guarantees, among other things, a better positioning of the second strap portion 42, in particular in the configuration of the optional strap which will be described hereinafter with reference to the figures 3 and 5 .
  • the second anchoring means In the configuration of the optional strap described in figures 2 and 4 the second anchoring means is in a "connected" state and the strap behaves like a lower leg strap of the prior art.
  • the user exerts a pull on the free end 424 of the second webbing portion 42.
  • This traction is transmitted, on the one hand, to the medial part of the collar 21, by means of the matching means 44 and the first strap portion 41 and, on the other hand, to the side portion of the collar via the second anchoring means 46.
  • the user folds the free end 424 so that the two velcro strips of the length adjusting means 45 interconnect with each other and the clamping is maintained.
  • the user will preferably choose this configuration when he wants performance, that is to say, in particular to ski more quickly and more engaged.
  • the slipper and therefore the lower leg of the user, are firmly held in the rigid shell.
  • the skier is aware of the support offered by the hull 2 simultaneously forwards and backwards.
  • the figures 3 and 5 show the ski boot in a second configuration.
  • the second anchoring means 46 is in a "disconnected" state. Indeed, the hook 461 is no longer prisoner of the ring 462. So that, on the lateral side of the shoe, there is no longer connection between the collar and the second strap portion. Therefore, even when the lower leg tightening device is tight, the lower leg has a certain laxity because the shoe 3 is no longer pressed against the rear portion 211 of the collar.
  • the user will preferably choose this configuration when he wants more comfort.
  • the boot, and therefore the leg of the user retains the support of the front part of the hull.
  • the Figures 6 and 7 partially describe a third embodiment of the invention.
  • the third embodiment differs from the second embodiment, firstly by pairing means 44 of the first loop portion 41 with the second loop portion 42, as well as adjustment means 45 which are different from those present in FIG. the second embodiment.
  • the pairing means 44 and the length adjustment means 45 are combined on the same element called claw buckle.
  • the claw buckle includes a buckle 441 secured to the free end of the second strap portion 42, and a claw 451 which is pivotally mounted in the buckle, such that when the first strap portion 41 is pulled into the buckle In the direction of tightening, the claw 451 pivots to let the strap slide while when the strap is trying to slide in the direction of loosening, the claw is positioned in such a way that it obstructs the passage and prevents slipping.
  • the third embodiment is also distinguished from the second embodiment by the second anchoring means. Indeed it is no longer constituted by a simple ring 462 through which passes (cf. figure 6 ) or does not pass (cf. figure 7 ) the first portion of strap 41.
  • a third anchoring means is provided between the second strap portion 42 and the collar.
  • This third anchoring means is permanent.
  • the third anchoring means 47 consists of a flange 472 fastened on the one hand to the second strap portion 42 and on the other hand to the collar 21.
