Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is for detachably fixing a shoe A to a snowboard F.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when riding a snowboard, it is common to attach the shoe holder to the snowboard with screws and fix the shoe to the shoe holder with a band, but wear thick gloves. It was very difficult to operate the band. Therefore, there has been a long-awaited method of putting on and taking off shoes as easily as skiing. For this reason, we found some equipment that had metal fittings attached to the sole of the shoe and fasteners combined with it, and equipment that had the metal fitting attached to the bottom of the shoe holder and could be removed freely, but these were actually used because they were combined with the fixing metal fittings at the sole of the shoe. In this case, there was a drawback that it became extremely difficult to use because of snow adhering to the soles.

[0003]

When fixing a shoe on a snowboard, the band must be operated by a gloved hand, which is very inconvenient. It was very inconvenient because there were many situations where it was necessary to operate such as when moving in a flat place or riding a lift.

[0004]

According to the present invention for solving the above inconvenience, a shoe holder B attached to a shoe A is provided with a side plate 3 having a projection 2, and the shoe holder-receiver E receives them. However, the force in the left-right rotation direction on the snowboard F applied to the shoe A is received by the contact surface or the contact line between the L-shaped side plate 4 and the side plate 3, and the force in the front-back and up-down directions. Is protrusion 2 and L
It is received by a mechanism such as claws 5, 6, 7 combined with the letter-shaped side plate 4.

[0005]

The shoe holder-B and the shoe A are attached and detached by the band 1 in the same manner as the conventional method, but the shoe holder-B and the shoe holder-receiver E can be attached and detached with one touch, and the shoes are received on the side surface. Snow on the bottom no longer interferes. When the side plate 3 is integrally formed with the sole 12 of the shoe A, the shoe is directly attached and detached. Therefore, it is much more convenient when you get on and off the lift and remove one foot for short-distance horizontal movement.

[0006]

EXAMPLES Examples will be described with reference to the drawings. First, the side plate 3 having the protrusion 2 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is fixed to the side surface C of the shoe holder-B. If shoe holder-B is made of plastic or aluminum alloy, side plate 3
Is made of a relatively hard metal such as stainless steel and attached by screws or rivets. When the shoe holder-B is a hard metal, the side plate 3 may be integrally formed with the side surface C of the shoe holder-B. The protrusion 4 is directly formed on the shoe holder-B. Next, the claw 5 and the spring 13 that engage with the protrusion 2 are combined with the L-shaped side plate 4 in which the protrusion 2 can be accommodated and the groove D is cut, and two of these are faced to each other and attached to the shoe holder-receiver substrate 8, and the shoe holder. -Configure the receiver E. Side plate 3 and L
The character-shaped side plate 4 is in contact with the surface or line, and the protrusion 2 is housed in the groove D and the claw 5
Engages the protrusion 2.

It is natural that the L-shaped side plate 4 and the shoe holder-receiver substrate 8 may be welded or screwed together and the right and left sides of the same material may be bent from the beginning. When the shoe holder-B is mounted, the claw 5 automatically moves in the opening direction by the spring 13 and the shape of the upper part of the claw, and after the mounting, the protrusion 2 can be reliably pressed upward. Lever-1 for nail 5
1 is configured appropriately, and the pawl 5 is operated by operating the lever 11.
Releases the protrusion 2. The mechanism of the claw 5 is a well-known technique which is also used for automobile doors and the like, and there are many methods and shapes, but it goes without saying that any of them may be used. It's not about being involved.

When claim 2 is explained with reference to FIG. 7, the claw 6
The auxiliary claw 7 for restraining the movement of the auxiliary claw 6 makes the operation of the claw 6 more reliable, and at the same time, by providing the step on the sliding surface of the auxiliary claw 7, the claw 6 can be operated in a stepwise manner. It becomes possible to obtain the same level of safety as the door state. A lever 11 is attached to the auxiliary claw 7, and the lever 11
The lever can be shaped in many other ways.

Claim 3 will be described with reference to FIGS. The cam 9 that controls the auxiliary pawl 7 and the shaft 10 that interlocks the left and right cams 9 are rotated by the operation of the lever 11, and finally the operation of the pawl 7 can be controlled. Due to the shape and combination of the claws according to the present invention, it is possible to release the left and right claws 6 from the locked state with one hand, and unless the left and right claws 6 are simultaneously locked, the lever-1.
1 does not rotate, and a safety confirmation function has been added.

In the shoe A according to claim 4, the arch portion of the shoe sole 12 is constructed so that the side plate 3 can be directly attached, or
Alternatively, the shoe holder B is integrally formed, and the function of the shoe holder-B is integrally incorporated in the shoe as it is.

A commercially available shoe holder comprises a bottom surface J having a screw hole for fixing to a snowboard as shown in FIG. 14, a side surface C thereof, two front and rear belts 1, and a rear presser foot H. Although the shoe holder B according to the present invention does not need a screw hole on the bottom surface and is different from a commercially available product, the purpose of using the same word is to make the explanation of the invention easy to understand. This is because it is possible to use a commercially available product as it is as the shoe holder B of the present invention.

The shoe holder B according to the present invention comprises a side surface A, a bottom surface J, and a band 1. The horizontal movement of the shoe A with respect to the snowboard F is received from the side surface C by the L-shaped side plate 4. Stop
The vertical movement is received by the claws 5 and 6 of the L-shaped side plate 4 and the auxiliary claw 7 from the projection 2. The bottom surface only needs to transmit those forces through the side surfaces, and can be made significantly smaller than those on the market. Also, when the side surface and the bottom surface are integrally formed of metal, the side plate 5 and the side surface A become the same surface and the projection 4
Can also be provided.

Therefore, integrally forming the shoe holder-B on the sole 12 of the shoe A means that the protrusion 2 of the shoe holder-B according to the present invention is directly formed on the sole 12 as shown in FIGS. This means that the band 1 may or may not be attached to the sole 12 as a reinforcing element of the shoe A, and the side plate 3 and the sole 12 may be the same material or different materials.

Claim 5 will be described with reference to FIG. The L-shaped side plate 14 is provided with a hole G having a shape in which the protrusion 2 is in close contact with the upper portion and is free with respect to the lower portion. The protrusion 2 is fixed from the front and rear and the upper side by being inserted from the lower part and being housed in the upper hole.

The L-shaped side plate 4 and the L-shaped side plate 14 are paired on the left and right to form a shoe holder-receptor E. The L-shaped side plate 4 is combined with a claw and other mechanisms, but the L-shaped side plate 14 does not require any other component. The present invention makes it possible to simplify the shoe A without changing the function of fixing the shoe A on the side surface.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the attaching / detaching mechanism is based on the side surface C of the shoe holder-B and the shoe holder-receiver E, the shoe A or the shoe A is removed while the shoe holder-B is removed from the snowboard. The snow adhering to the bottom of the shoe holder-B will not interfere with the wearing, and the feet can be attached and detached very easily and surely.

In Claims 2 and 3, the operability and safety of the lock mechanism are remarkably improved, and in Claims 4 and 5, simplification of parts and additional convenience are added.
