Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif amortisseur pour chaussures. The present invention relates to a shock absorbing device for shoes.
On sait que les micro-chocs répétés provoqués par la marche à pied se répercutent dans l'ensemble du corps et ont souvent pour effet, à la longue, des douleurs notamment dorsales. We know that the repeated micro-shocks caused by walking have repercussions throughout the body and often have the effect, in the long run, of pain, particularly back pain.
Pour pallier cet inconvénient on a proposé des chaussures dont les semelles incorporent un dispositif amortisseur. To overcome this drawback, shoes have been proposed, the soles of which incorporate a shock-absorbing device.
Les dispositifs amortisseurs connus à ce jour sont nombreux et de types différents, la fonction d'amortissement étant assurée soit par la nature des matériaux employés dans la confection de la semelle, soit par la structure de cette dernière. The damping devices known to date are numerous and of different types, the damping function being provided either by the nature of the materials used in the manufacture of the sole, or by the structure of the latter.
Dans le premier cas la semelle ou la première est réalise en un matériau élastique absorbant les chocs. In the first case, the sole or the first is made of an elastic shock-absorbing material.
Dans le second cas, la semelle présente une certaine épaisseur et peut comporter au moins une cavité hermétique remplie d'air, éventuellement gonflable, ou une cavité remplie d'un liquide de haute viscosité, les chaussures ainsi équipées étant plus particulièrement destinées à la pratique du sport. In the second case, the sole has a certain thickness and may include at least one hermetic cavity filled with air, possibly inflatable, or a cavity filled with a high viscosity liquid, the shoes thus equipped being more particularly intended for practice. Sport.
Ces divers dispositifs présentent toutefois des inconvénients, notamment de cout de fabrication et de tenue dans le temps. However, these various devices have drawbacks, in particular in terms of manufacturing cost and resistance over time.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un dispositif amortisseur pour chaussures qui offre l'avantage d'un coût de fabrication peu élevé et d'une parfaite tenue dans le temps. The aim of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a shock-absorbing device for shoes which offers the advantage of a low manufacturing cost and of perfect resistance over time.
Le dispositif selon l'invention se caractérise essentiellement en ce qu'il comprend un insert en matière plastique élastique disposé dans une cavité pratiquée dans la semelle de la chaussure, ledit insert comportant une partie supérieure prolongée périphériquement et vers le bas par un bord d'une hauteur égale à celle de ladite cavité, ladite partie supérieure présentant une face supérieure plane percee d'orifices régulièrement espacés prolongés chacun par une pièce tubulaire dont l'extrémité inférieure, fermée, est hémisphérique. The device according to the invention is essentially characterized in that it comprises an insert of elastic plastic material disposed in a cavity formed in the sole of the shoe, said insert comprising an upper part extended peripherally and downwards by an edge of a height equal to that of said cavity, said upper part having a planar upper face pierced with regularly spaced orifices each extended by a tubular part whose lower end, closed, is hemispherical.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, la semelle et l'insert sont recouverts d'une première en matériau caoutchouteux du type latex. According to an additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, the sole and the insert are covered with a first of rubbery material of the latex type.
Les avantages et les caractéristiques de la présente invention ressortiront plus clairement de la description qui suit et qui se rapporte au dessin annexé, lequel en représente un mode de réalisation non limitatif. The advantages and characteristics of the present invention will emerge more clearly from the description which follows and which refers to the appended drawing, which represents a non-limiting embodiment thereof.
Dans le dessin annexe :
- la figure 1 représente une vue en perspective et en éclaté, avec arraché partiel, d'un dispositif selon l'invention.In the accompanying drawing:
- Figure 1 shows a perspective and exploded view, partially broken away, of a device according to the invention.
- la figure 2 représente une vue en plan, vue de dessus, du même dispositif. - Figure 2 shows a plan view, top view, of the same device.
- la figure 3 représente une vue en plan, vue de dessous, du méme dispositif. - Figure 3 shows a plan view, seen from below, of the same device.
- la figure 4 represente une vue en coupe longitudinale médiane selon l'axe XX' de la figure 2. FIG. 4 represents a view in median longitudinal section along the axis XX ′ of FIG. 2.
Si on se réfère à la figure 1 on peut voir un insert 1 en matière plastique souple destiné à être introduit dans une cavité 20 pratiquée dans la partie arrière 21, au niveau du talon 22, de la semelle 2 d'une chaussure, non représentée. If we refer to Figure 1 we can see an insert 1 of flexible plastic material intended to be introduced into a cavity 20 formed in the rear part 21, at the heel 22, of the sole 2 of a shoe, not shown .
Si on se réfère également aux figures 2, 3 et 4 on peut voir que l'insert 1 comporte une face supérieure plane 10 et un bord périphérique inférieur 11 conférant à l'insert 1 une rigidité suffisante. If we also refer to Figures 2, 3 and 4 we can see that the insert 1 has a flat upper face 10 and a lower peripheral edge 11 giving the insert 1 sufficient rigidity.
La face supérieure plane 10 de l'insert 1 est percée d'orifices 12 espacés régulièrement, prolongés chacun par une partie tubulaire 13 dont l'extrémité inférieure 14 est hémisphérique. The planar upper face 10 of the insert 1 is pierced with regularly spaced orifices 12, each extended by a tubular part 13 whose lower end 14 is hemispherical.
Lorsque le pied de l'utilisateur, et plus particulièrement son talon, appuie sur l'insert 1, les extrémités 14 des parties tubulaires 13 s'écrasent sur le fond 23 de la cavité 20 de la semelle 2 et entrent en contact les unes avec les autres, limitant ainsi l'enfoncement de l'insert 1, et elles reprennent leur forme lorsque la pression cesse de s'exercer, conférant ainsi à l'insert une élasticité qui entraîne un grand confort de marche. When the user's foot, and more particularly his heel, presses on the insert 1, the ends 14 of the tubular parts 13 are crushed on the bottom 23 of the cavity 20 of the sole 2 and come into contact with each other. the others, thus limiting the insertion of the insert 1, and they resume their shape when the pressure ceases to exert, thus giving the insert an elasticity which results in great walking comfort.
L'écrasement de l'insert 1 peut être limité en recouvrant celui-ci d'une première, non représentée, réalisée par exemple en latex, qui obture partiellement les orifices 12, de manière à limiter et contrôler la sortie de l'air contenu dans les parties tubulaires 13, le relâchement de la pression permettant la reprise d'air. The crushing of the insert 1 can be limited by covering the latter with a first, not shown, made for example of latex, which partially closes the orifices 12, so as to limit and control the exit of the contained air. in the tubular parts 13, the release of the pressure allowing the air intake.
Il va de soi que la présente invention ne saurait être limitée à la description qui précède d'un de ses modes de réalisation, susceptible de subir un certain nombre de modifications sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. It goes without saying that the present invention cannot be limited to the preceding description of one of its embodiments, capable of undergoing a certain number of modifications without departing from the scope of the invention.
