DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION

OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

Es objeto de la presente invención, tal y como el título de la invención establece, por un lado, un dispositivo protector de tobillo y calzado que lo incorpora, mientras que también es objeto de la invención el calzado que incorpora dicho dispositivo.It is object of the present invention, as the title of the invention establishes, on the one hand, a protective ankle and footwear device that incorporates it, while also the object of the invention is the footwear incorporating said device.

Caracteriza a la presente invención la especial configuración y diseño del dispositivo que hacen del mismo un elemento práctico y sencillo en su montaje y utilización consiguiente evitar la torcedura de tobillos.It characterizes to the present invention the special configuration and design of the device that make it a practical and simple element in its assembly and consequent use to avoid twisting of the ankles.

Por lo tanto, la presente invención se circunscribe dentro del ámbito del calzado y de los accesorios montados sobre el calzado que evitan la torcedura de tobillos.Therefore, the present invention is circumscribed within the scope of footwear and accessories mounted on footwear that prevent twisting of ankles.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Las torceduras causan esguinces que básicamente es un ligamento estirado o roto. Los ligamentos conectan los huesos entre sí en una articulación y ayudan a que los huesos se mantengan en su lugar.Sprains cause sprains that are basically a stretched or broken ligament. The ligaments connect the bones to each other in a joint and help the bones stay in place.

El lugar más común para un esguince es un tobillo. Un esguince del tobillo puede ocurrir cuando una persona se cae, cuando súbitamente tuerce su tobillo demasiado o cuando fuerza la articulación fuera de su posición normal, esto último, por ejemplo, cuando usted cae sobre su pie de una manera anormal después de un salto. La mayoría de los esguinces de tobillo ocurren durante las actividades deportivas o al caminar o correr sobre una superficie que no es uniforme. The most common place for a sprain is an ankle. A sprained ankle can occur when a person falls, when he suddenly twists his ankle too much or when he forces the joint out of its normal position, the latter, for example, when you fall on your foot in an abnormal way after a jump. Most ankle sprains occur during sports activities or when walking or running on a surface that is not uniform.

Hay gente que es especialmente propensa a las torceduras de tobillos y por lo tanto sufren continuos esguinces. Son numerosas los remedios aplicados entre los que están: hacer una buena recuperación, eliminar el miedo, entrenamiento muscular, equilibrio entre ambas piernas y entrenamiento de tipo propioceptivo. Sin embargo, aún con todas las anteriores prácticas se siguen produciendo torceduras de tobillo, por lo que se hace necesario el empleo de medios mecánicos adicionales que montados sobre el tobillo protejan a este de torceduras sin suponer limitación alguna en el movimiento.There are people who are especially prone to sprained ankles and therefore suffer continuous sprains. There are numerous remedies applied among those who are: make a good recovery, eliminate fear, muscle training, balance between both legs and proprioceptive type training. However, even with all the previous practices ankle sprains continue to occur, so it is necessary to use additional mechanical means that mounted on the ankle protect it from sprains without involving any limitation in movement.

En algunos casos se emplean tobilleras que montadas sobre el tobillo evitan desplazamientos del tobillo no deseados, hecho que en ocasiones no es suficiente.In some cases ankle braces are used which, mounted on the ankle, prevent unwanted ankle displacement, which is sometimes not enough.

Por lo tanto, es objeto de la presente invención desarrollar un dispositivo mecánico que prevenga las torceduras de tobillos y que montado sobre el pie y la zapatilla no suponga limitación alguna en la práctica deportiva, desarrollando un dispositivo como el que a continuación se describe y queda recogido en su esencialidad en la reivindicación primera.Therefore, it is the object of the present invention to develop a mechanical device that prevents twists of the ankles and that mounted on the foot and the shoe does not suppose any limitation in sports practice, developing a device such as the one described below and remains collected in its essentiality in the first claim.
