Description
Article chaussant et notamment chaussure de sport
La présente invention se rapporte à un article chaussant et plus spécialement à une chaussure de sport de type classique en cuir, matériau synthétique ou toile.., par exemple une chaussure adaptée à la pratique du tennis, du football, de l'athlétisme ou de tout autre sport.Footwear and in particular sports shoe
The present invention relates to an article of footwear and more particularly to a classic type sports shoe made of leather, synthetic material or canvas, for example a shoe suitable for playing tennis, football, athletics or any other sport.
De manière classique, les chaussures de sport sont constituées d'un semelage sur lequel est montée une tige dont la partie supérieure couvrant l'avant-pied ou claque se prolonge vers l'arrière par une languette protégeant le cou de pied qui est recouverte au moins partiellement par deux éléments ou quartiers de tige constituant la partie supérieure de la tige. Conventionally, sports shoes consist of a sole assembly on which is mounted a rod whose upper part covering the forefoot or slap is extended towards the rear by a tongue protecting the instep which is covered at the at least partially by two rod elements or quarters constituting the upper part of the rod.
Pendant très longtemps, les chaussures de ce type ont été fermées au moyen d'un lacet passant dans des oeillets percés à cet effet sur les bords se faisant face des deux quartiers de tige. Après avoir mis en place le lacet dans les oeillets, ce qui ne constitue par toujours une opération très facile, l'utilisateur doit le serrer, puis le nouer. En plus de son caractère relativement incommode, ce mode de fermeture présente l'inconvénient de nécessiter un remplacement très fréquent des lacets, par suite de leur usure rapide de plus, il arrive souvent que l'utilisat-eur casse le lacet au moment où il le noue, I'empêchant de fermer sa chaussure s'il n'en a pas un autre à sa disposition. For a very long time, shoes of this type have been closed by means of a lace passing through eyelets pierced for this purpose on the edges facing the two quarters of the upper. After putting the lace in place in the eyelets, which is not always a very easy operation, the user must tighten it, then tie it. In addition to its relatively inconvenient nature, this closure method has the drawback of requiring very frequent replacement of the laces, due to their rapid wear, moreover, it often happens that the user breaks the lace at the moment it ties him up, preventing him from closing his shoe if he doesn't have another one at his disposal.
Par ailleurs, la mise en place des oeillets sur les quartiers de tige constitue une opération longue et relativement délicate augmentant notablement le coût de fabrication des articles chaussants.Furthermore, the installation of the eyelets on the stem quarters constitutes a long and relatively delicate operation significantly increasing the cost of manufacturing footwear.
Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, on a proposé d'équiper les quartiers de tige des articles chaussants de pattes comportant des organes de fermeture auto-agrippants du type "Velcro" (marque déposée). To overcome these drawbacks, it has been proposed to equip the upper parts of the footwear with tabs comprising hook-and-loop fasteners of the "Velcro" type (registered trademark).
Ces systèmes présentent, toutefois, l'inconvénient de ne pas toujours permettre un serrage satisfaisant de l'article et d'avoir une durée de vie relativement brève. De plus, les pattes de fermeture auto-agrippantes sont particulièrement sensibles aux salissures et risquent de devenir totalement inefficaces sur terrain boueux. These systems have, however, the disadvantage of not always allowing satisfactory clamping of the article and of having a relatively short lifespan. In addition, the hook-and-loop fastening tabs are particularly sensitive to soiling and risk becoming totally ineffective on muddy ground.
La présente invention a pour objet de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un article chaussant du type ci-dessus qui puisse être fermé très simplement, et ce, par un dispositif garantissant, en toute circonstance, un serrage satisfaisant et peu sensible à l'usure, et, d'autre part, être déchaussé à l'aide d'un geste simple : une pression de l'autre pied, par exemple. The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing an article of footwear of the above type which can be closed very simply, and this, by a device guaranteeing, in all circumstances, a satisfactory tightening and not very sensitive to wear. , and, on the other hand, be barefooted using a simple gesture: a pressure from the other foot, for example.
A cet effet, l'article chaussant conforme à l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il est muni d'un dispositif de fermeture constitué par une chatnette repliée en forme de U et susceptible de se déplacer dans des organes de guidage mis en place à cet effet le long des bords latéraux des deux quartiers de tige et constituant les deux branches du U, l'une des extrémités de la chatnette ou première extrémité étant fixée à la partie supérieure de la languette tandis que l'autre extrémité ou seconde extrémité est munie d'organes de traction pouvant être tirés afin de rapprocher l'un de l'autre les bords latéraux des deux quartiers de tige t por suite fermer la chaussure en réglant la force de serrage à une valeur plus ou moins élevée, la seconde extrémité de la chainette coopérant avec des organes de verrouillage mobiles entre une première position ou position de réglage dans laquelle ils autorisent 1 translation de la chainette dans les organes de guidage et une seconde position ou position de repos dans laquelle ils interdisent cette translation. To this end, the footwear according to the invention is characterized in that it is provided with a closure device constituted by a catnette folded in the shape of a U and capable of moving in guide members put in place. for this purpose along the lateral edges of the two stem quarters and constituting the two branches of the U, one of the ends of the catnette or first end being fixed to the upper part of the tongue while the other end or second end is fitted with pulling members which can be pulled in order to bring the lateral edges of the two upper quarters of the upper closer to each other t close the shoe by adjusting the tightening force to a higher or lower value, the second end of the chain cooperating with movable locking members between a first position or adjustment position in which they allow 1 translation of the chain in the guide members and a second position or positio n rest in which they prohibit this translation.
L'article chaussant conforme à l'invention peut être fermé très simplement en exerçant une simple traction sur les organes de traction. The footwear according to the invention can be closed very simply by exerting a simple pull on the traction members.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la languette est reliée par l'un de ses bords au bord du quartier de tige correspondant, notamment par piqure. According to another characteristic of the invention, the tongue is connected by one of its edges to the edge of the corresponding rod quarter, in particular by stitching.
I1 s'agit là en fait d'une caractéristique connue en elle-même qui se retrouvent dans un grand nombre de chaussures de sport ; dans le cas de l'invention, celle-ci oblige à choisir, comme seconde extrémité de la cha;nette (munie des organes de traction) l'extrémité contiguë au quartier de tige solidaire de la languette. This is in fact a characteristic known in itself which is found in a large number of sports shoes; in the case of the invention, this requires choosing, as the second end of the chain; net (provided with traction members) the end contiguous to the quarter of the rod secured to the tongue.
Conformément à l'invention, la chainette est de préférence constituée par une chainette à billes, notamment une chainette à billes métalliques. According to the invention, the chain is preferably constituted by a ball chain, in particular a chain with metal balls.
Cette caractéristique permet d'éviter toute usure rapide de la chai nette ou tout risque de rupture lors de l'opération de traction. This characteristic makes it possible to avoid any rapid wear of the net cellar or any risk of breakage during the traction operation.
Bien entendu, les organes de traction peuvent être quelconques sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention ; ils peuvent me me etre simplement constitués par l'une des extrémités de la chainette ; cependant, l'utilisation d'un anneau, notamment métallique, permet de simplifier pour l'utilisateur l'opération de fermeture de sa chaussure. Of course, the traction members can be any without departing from the scope of the invention; they can be me simply constituted by one of the ends of the chain; however, the use of a ring, in particular a metal ring, makes it possible to simplify for the user the operation of closing his shoe.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les organes de guidage sont constitués par deux éléments tubulaires solidaires, chacun, d'une patte de fixation respectivement fixée au quartier de tige, notamment par piqûre. According to another characteristic of the invention, the guide members consist of two tubular elements which are each integral with a fixing lug respectively fixed to the quarter of the rod, in particular by stitching.
La configuration la plus simple de ces éléments tubulaires est constituée par un élément souple (cuir, matériau synthétique, toile...) correspondant ou non au matériau constitutif de l'article chaussant, replié en deux et muni d'une piqûre à la partie arrière de la pliure. The simplest configuration of these tubular elements is constituted by a flexible element (leather, synthetic material, canvas ...) corresponding or not to the material of the footwear, folded in half and provided with a stitching at the part back of the fold.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la languette est munie à sa partie supérieure d'un élément de blocage à section en forme de fourche, susceptible de recevoir, à force, une portion de chaSnette située entre deux billes pour assurer son blocage à ce niveau. According to another characteristic of the invention, the tongue is provided at its upper part with a blocking element with a fork-shaped section, capable of receiving, by force, a portion of chain located between two balls to ensure its blocking. this level.
Cette caractéristique permet de régler la longueur de chainette libre en fonction de la taille du pied de l'utilisateur, et donc d'éviter la présence, au niveau de l'anneau de traction d'une longueur de chainette trop importante pouvant occasionner une gêne pour l'utilisateur, voire des risques de chute. This characteristic makes it possible to adjust the length of the free chain according to the size of the foot of the user, and therefore to avoid the presence, at the traction ring, of too long a chain length which can cause discomfort. for the user, or even the risk of falling.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les organes de verrouillage sont constitués par une portion d'un élément tubulaire montée élastiquement, maintenue sous contrainte dans le prolongement de la partie complémentaire de cet élément tubulaire en position de réglage et rappelée élastiquement vers une position décalée latéralement par rapport à cette partie complémentaire constituant la position de repos. According to another characteristic of the invention, the locking members consist of a portion of an elastically mounted tubular element, held under stress in the extension of the complementary part of this tubular element in the adjustment position and resiliently returned to a position laterally offset with respect to this complementary part constituting the rest position.
Cette configuration présente l'avantage, pour l'utilisateur, de pouvoir faire passer les organes de verrouillage en position de réglage en exerçant notamment avec un pied une pression à ce niveau, permettant ainsi un déchaussage rapide. This configuration has the advantage, for the user, of being able to pass the locking members into the adjustment position by exerting in particular with a foot a pressure at this level, thus allowing rapid heaving.
La partie d'élément tubulaire constituant les organes de verrouillage est, de préférence, située à la partie médiane de l'élément tubulaire correspondant. The part of the tubular element constituting the locking members is preferably located at the middle part of the corresponding tubular element.
Le dispositif de fermeture décrit ci-dessus permets à l'utilisateur, d'enlever ses chaussures ou de les mettre en les serrant de manière satisfaisante, très simplement et de façon sûre, ctest-à-dire sans risque de rupture d'un élément tel que lacet. The closure device described above allows the user to remove or put on his shoes by tightening them satisfactorily, very simply and securely, that is to say without risk of breaking an element. such as lace.
Les caractéristiques de l'article chaussant qui fait l'objet de l'invention seront décrites plus en détail en se référant aux dessins annexés dans lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue d'ensemble d'un article chaussant conforme à l'invention,
- la figure 2 est une vue détaillée de l'article chaussant représenté sur la figure 1, au niveau de la languette,
- la figure 3 représente les éléments de verrouillage en position de repos,
- la figure 4 représente l'élément de blocage.The characteristics of the footwear which is the subject of the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
FIG. 1 is an overall view of an article of footwear according to the invention,
FIG. 2 is a detailed view of the footwear shown in FIG. 1, at the level of the tongue,
FIG. 3 represents the locking elements in the rest position,
- Figure 4 shows the locking element.
Selon la figure 1, l'invention se rapporte plus spécialement à une chaussure de sport qui est constituée, de manière classique, d'un semelage 1 sur lequel est montée une tige 2 dont la partie supérieure couvrant l'avant-pied 3 qui est généralement nommée claque, se prolonge par une languette 5 protégeant le cou du pied. According to Figure 1, the invention relates more particularly to a sports shoe which is constituted, in a conventional manner, of a sole assembly 1 on which is mounted a rod 2 whose upper part covering the forefoot 3 which is generally called slap, is extended by a tongue 5 protecting the neck of the foot.
De manière classique, la languette 5 est partiellement recouverte, à sa partie supérieure, par deux quartiers de tige 6 et 6' qui doivent être rapprochés comme indiqué par la flèche A pour fermer la chaussure. Conventionally, the tongue 5 is partially covered, at its upper part, by two rod quarters 6 and 6 'which must be brought together as indicated by the arrow A to close the shoe.
Selon la figure 2, conformément à l'invention, la languette 5 est reliée par l'un de ses bords 50 au bord correspondant 60' du quartier de tige contigu 6' au moyen d'une piqûre 7 qui n'a été représentée que partiellement sur la figure. Par suite de cette configuration, lorsque l'on veut fermer la chaussure, seul le quartier de tige 6 peut être déplacé selon la flèche
B. Pour permettre ce mouvement, il est prévu un dispositif de fermeture schématiquement constitué d'une chainette à billes métalliques 8 repliée en forme de U et dont une première extrémité 80 est bloquée de façon réglable à la partie supérieure 51 de la languette 5, tandis que la seconde extrémité 81 est munie d'un anneau métallique de traction 9 dont le rôle sera décrit dans la suite de cet exposé.According to Figure 2, in accordance with the invention, the tongue 5 is connected by one of its edges 50 to the corresponding edge 60 'of the adjoining stem quarter 6' by means of a stitching 7 which has only been shown partially in the figure. As a result of this configuration, when it is desired to close the boot, only the stem quarter 6 can be moved along the arrow
B. To allow this movement, a closing device is schematically provided, consisting of a chain of metal balls 8 folded in a U shape and of which a first end 80 is locked in an adjustable manner at the upper part 51 of the tongue 5, while the second end 81 is provided with a metal traction ring 9, the role of which will be described in the rest of this description.
La chainette 8 est introduite par son extrémité 80 ne portant pas d'anneau dans deux éléments tubulaires de guidage 10 et 11 constituant les branches du U et, munis chacun d'une patte 12, 12' fixée par une piqûre 13, 13' sur les quartiers de tige 6, 6'. The chain 8 is introduced by its end 80 not carrying a ring in two tubular guide elements 10 and 11 constituting the branches of the U and, each provided with a tab 12, 12 'fixed by a stitching 13, 13' on the stem quarters 6, 6 '.
Par suite du blocage de l'extrémité 80 de la chainette 8, si l'on exerce sur l'anneau 9 une traction représentée par la flèche F, on déplace le quartier de tige 6 selon la flèche 8, ce qui équivaut à diminuer la longueur t de la partie 82 de la chaînette 8 se trouvant entre les éléments tubulaires 10 et 11 et par suite à fermer la chaussure. As a result of the blocking of the end 80 of the chain 8, if there is a pull on the ring 9 represented by the arrow F, the stem quarter 6 is moved along the arrow 8, which is equivalent to reducing the length t of the part 82 of the chain 8 located between the tubular elements 10 and 11 and consequently closing the shoe.
Bien entendu, pour permettre ce mouvement, il est nécessaire que l'extrémité 81 de la chainette 8, portant l'anneau 9, soit située sur le quartier de tige 6' relié à la languette 5 au moyen de la piqûre 7. Of course, to allow this movement, it is necessary that the end 81 of the chain 8, carrying the ring 9, is located on the stem quarter 6 'connected to the tongue 5 by means of the stitching 7.
Selon la figure 4, l'extrémité 80 de la chaînette 8 est bloquée à la partie supérieure 51 de la languette 5 au moyen d'un élément de blocage 14 fixé à la languette de façon quelconque. Cet élément 14 a une section en forme de fourche dont les dimensions sont choisies de manière à lui permettre de recevoir, à force, une portion 83 de chainette située entre deux billes 84, 84' et de l'y maintenir. En exerçant sur la chaînette une force selon la flèche C (figure 4) il est bien entendu possible de débloquer la chainette 8 notamment pour modifier son réglage. According to Figure 4, the end 80 of the chain 8 is blocked at the upper part 51 of the tongue 5 by means of a blocking element 14 fixed to the tongue in any way. This element 14 has a fork-shaped section whose dimensions are chosen so as to allow it to receive, by force, a portion 83 of chain located between two balls 84, 84 'and to keep it there. By exerting on the chain a force according to arrow C (Figure 4) it is of course possible to unlock the chain 8 in particular to modify its setting.
Selon les figures 2 et 3, pour que le dispositif décrit susmentionné puisse permettre de fermer la chaussure, il est nécessaire de prévoir des organes de errouillage susceptibles d'empêcher toute translation de la chaînette 8 dans les éléments tubulaires 10, 11, à partir d'une position donnée. According to FIGS. 2 and 3, in order for the device described above to be able to close the boot, it is necessary to provide locking devices capable of preventing any translation of the chain 8 in the tubular elements 10, 11, from 'a given position.
Selon les figures 2 et 3, ces éléments sont cosntitués par une portion d'élément tubulaire 15 située à la partie médiane de l'élément 10 et montée élastiquement sur le quartier de tige 6'. Cet élément 15 se trouve au repos dans une position décalée latéralement par rapport à la partie complémentaire de l'élément tubulaire 10 représentée sur la figure 3. According to Figures 2 and 3, these elements are cosntitués by a portion of tubular element 15 located in the middle part of the element 10 and mounted elastically on the stem quarter 6 '. This element 15 is at rest in a position offset laterally with respect to the complementary part of the tubular element 10 shown in FIG. 3.
Dans cette position, toute translation de la chaînette 8, selon la flèche D, est impossible. A partir de cette position, et au moyen d'une compression
E exercée, par exemple, par le pied de l'utilisateur, la portion 15 peut être amenée et maintenue dans une position de réglage représentée sur la figure 2 dans laquelle elle se trouve dans le prolongement de la partie complémentaire de l'élément tubulaire 10, permettant par suite le déplacement de la chatnette selon la flèche D sous l'action d'une contrainte F exercée par l'utilisateur à partir de l'anneau 9. Lorsque la pression E est supprimée, la portion 5 est immédiatement rappelée vers sa position représentée sur la figure 3. In this position, any translation of the chain 8, according to arrow D, is impossible. From this position, and by means of compression
E exerted, for example, by the foot of the user, the portion 15 can be brought and maintained in an adjustment position shown in FIG. 2 in which it is located in the extension of the complementary part of the tubular element 10 , thereby allowing the movement of the catnette along the arrow D under the action of a stress F exerted by the user from the ring 9. When the pressure E is removed, the portion 5 is immediately recalled towards its position shown in Figure 3.
