- 1. Field
- A fastener for utilization with cleats for athletic footwear is disclosed. In particular, a two piece fastener including a pin and sleeve having an internal lock providing both moisture resistance and ease or removal is disclosed.
- 2. General Background
- Athletic shoes may require the use of cleats or other antislip devices. The cleats made be made of metal of ceramic. One of the challenges for providing athletic footwear is to provide an efficient technique to attach the cleats to the shoe.
- There are currently several types of fasteners utilized for placing metal cleats in athletic shoes. Previous designs for metal cleat includes utilizing a solid squeeze rivet for removal of the cleats. However, these designs do not allow removal and replacement of cleats once they are worn down from excessive use.
- Other previous designs of cleat fasteners utilize an internal lock having a spline lock design wherein the pin contains locking splines on the shank of the pin. While providing for a removable fastener, the locking splines create grooves in the fastener that create leak points into the shoes, allowing excess moisture into the shoes.
- Thus, there is a need to provide a fastener for attaching cleats to footwear that prevents leakage and still provides easy removability.
- A fastener for securing at least one sole member to a metal cleat to provide better traction in footwear is disclosed. In exemplary embodiments, the fastener is a two piece member having both a sleeve and a pin.
- In an exemplary embodiment, the fastener has an internal locking mechanism that provides moisture resistance for the fastener, but also allows for easy removability.
- In an exemplary embodiment, the internal locking mechanism directs a portion of material of the sleeve substantially radially inward to lock the pin and sleeve together and stop axial movement of the pin into the sleeve during installation
- In one embodiment of the fastener, the sleeve member comprises an enlarged head sleeve shank portion, a through bore, and a sleeve stop shoulder. The through bore having an bore portion and a reduced diameter bore portion.
- In another embodiment, the pin member comprises an enlarged head, a shank portion with a diameter, and a reduced diameter shank portion, the reduced diameter shank portion having a diameter about the same as and providing a clearance with the reduced diameter bore portion, wherein at a juncture of the shank portion and reduced diameter shank portion is a pin stop shoulder, the reduced diameter shank portion having an internal locking section adjacent the pin stop shoulder.
- During installation of the fastener, the pin stop shoulder and sleeve stop shoulder engage for directing the material of the sleeve stop shoulder substantially radially inward into the internal locking section to lock the pin and sleeve together and stop axial movement of the pin into the sleeve
- Other objects, features, and advantages of the present disclosure will become apparent from the subsequent description and the appended claims.
- The foregoing aspects and advantages of present disclosure will become more readily apparent and understood with reference to the following detailed description, when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of the fastener showing both the pin and sleeve prior to installation of the fastener. -
FIG. 2 illustrates another exemplary embodiment of the fastener showing the pin and sleeve pressed together and locked. -
FIG. 3 illustrates a close up view of one exemplary embodiment of the fastener, showing an exemplary embodiment of the sleeve stop shoulder. -
FIG. 4 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of the fastener prior to installation in relationship to a plurality of sole plies and a metal cleat. -
FIG. 5 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of the installed fastener. -
FIG. 6 illustrates an exemplary tool that may be utilized to remove the fastener and replace the cleat. - A fastener for attaching cleats to footwear is disclosed. The cleats provide improved traction for footwear. Any type of cleat may be utilized for any sport. In exemplary embodiments, the fastener is utilized to connect the cleat to the footwear. Looking now at the Figures, the fastener comprises a
hollow sleeve 12 and apin 14 which are to be joined together with an internal locking mechanism. - The
hollow sleeve 12 has a generally straightshank portion 16 with a uniform outer diameter terminating at itsouter end 18 with an enlargedhead 20. Thesleeve 12 has a central throughbore 22 which includes ashank bore portion 24 and a reduceddiameter bore portion 26. The hollow sleeve further comprises anannular stop shoulder 28 defined at the juncture of theshank bore portion 24 and the reduceddiameter bore portion 26. - In an exemplary embodiment shown in
FIG. 3 , asmall slit 30 separates the stop shoulder from the reduceddiameter bore portion 24. In exemplary embodiments, the sleeve stop shoulder may terminate in a tapered portion 34 to assist in moving of thestop shoulder 28 into a locking position. Thestop shoulder 28 has a similar outer diameter to that of theshank bore portion 26. - The
pin 14 includes anelongated shank portion 38 terminating at one end with an enlarged head portion. Thepin member 14 comprises an elongated generally smoothpin shank portion 42 and a generally smooth reduced diameterpin shank portion 48. In an exemplary embodiment, the enlarged head portion has an enlargedflush head 45. At theother end 50 of thepin member 14 has aslight taper 58 to help move thepin 14 into the reduceddiameter bore portion 26 of thesleeve 12 during installation. - The diameter of
pin shank portion 42 is generally the same as that of theshank bore portion 24 in thesleeve 12, i.e. slight clearance to slight interference. The smooth reduceddiameter portion 48 is generally the same as that of the to provide a slight clearance to slight interference. - An annular
pin stop shoulder 52 is defined by the juncture of the reduceddiameter pin portion 48 and thepin shank portion 40 and has anend surface 57 which is generally planar. An annularinternal locking section 44 is defined by an annular groove located immediately adjacent thepin stop shoulder 52. - In an exemplary embodiment, the annular
internal locking section 44 of thepin 14 is formed to have itswall 46 curved. This assists theinternal locking section 44 in retaining the lock material ofsleeve stop shoulder 28 and resisting rearward push out ofpin 14 during installation. - To install, at least one
sole ply 60 for the construction of a shoe and ametal cleat 66 is placed between thepin member 14 andsleeve 12. In an exemplary embodiment, three sole plies will be place Installation force should be placed on both the outer end of thesleeve 18 and the enlargedhead 40 of thepin 14 to press thepin 14 and sleeve 12 together. - As axial movement of the
pin 14 continues the pinstop shoulder surface 52 engages the sleevestop shoulder surface 28 moving it radially inwardly into theinternal locking section 44. After theinternal locking section 44 has been substantially filled, movement of thepin 14 is arrested and the relative axial force applied between thepin 14 andsleeve 12 maintains the pin locked into the sleeve member. - As previously discussed, the
sleeve stop shoulder 28 is annularly separated for a selected distance along theannular slit 30. Theslit 30 or separation enhances the radially inward folding action of the material of the sleeve stopshoulder 28 into the internal locking section of thepin 14. - In other exemplary embodiments, the sleeve
stop shoulder surface 36 is inclined or tapered to assist the material of the sleeve stopshoulder 28 to be folded or moved radially inward. In this regard the engaging surface ofpin stop shoulder 52 is oriented relative to that of thesleeve surface 36 such as to assist in the radially inward folding action; thus the material ofsleeve stop shoulder 28 will be substantially directed radially inwardly and not radially outward. - The volume of the material of the
sleeve stop shoulder 28 is selected relative to the volume of theinternal locking section 44 such that the internal locking section will be substantially filled and axial movement of thepin 14 will be stopped at the desired location generally when that filled condition occurs, i.e. such that pin break atbreakneck 60 occurs within the sleeve head. Thus, the volume ofsleeve stop shoulder 28 which is separated from the remainder of thesleeve 12 by the tapered portion and slit 30 is generally equal to or greater than the volume necessary to fill theinternal locking section 58 and adjacent area between thepin 14 andsleeve 12. - In exemplary embodiments, the pin
stop shoulder surface 57 first acts to fold and/or deform the material of thesleeve stop shoulder 28 radially inward; as this occurs substantially all of the surface 57 (including that portion extending into internal locking section 44) will be active as a stop. When filling theinternal locking section 44 the movement of locking material from thesleeve stop shoulder 28 is generally entirely radially inward. - Upon installation of the fastener, the enlarged head of the pin will interact with the
top layer 70 of sole plies 60. Theenlarged head 45 of the pin will press into thesole ply 60 so that the top 70 is flush with theend 40 of thepin member 14, improving the comfort of the footwear. - The fastener also allows for easy removal and replacement of cleats utilizing a
tool 90. Thetool 90 with include a punch ordrill piece 92 that will interact with the outer end of the pin member. To remove the fastener, thetool 90 can be pushed into the through bore of thesleeve 12 punching theouter end 50 of thepin member 14, and pushing thepin member 14 out of thesleeve 12. - In exemplary embodiments, there will be exhibited external flushness of the
pin 14 with theexternal head surface 18 of the sleeve. The flushness of theouter end 18 of thesleeve 12 and theouter end 66 of thepin 14 provides visual confirmation of proper installation. This flushness also prevents water from seeping though thefastener 10 and provide moisture resistance to the shoe. - Additionally, the disclosed construction of the fastener promotes good filling of the
locking section 44 and also minimizes variations in the axial position of thepin 14 at which thegroove 58 is filled. As a result, any moisture would be prevented from entering the shoes via thecleat fastener 10. - While the above description contains many particulars, these should not be considered limitations on the scope of the disclosure, but rather a demonstration of embodiments thereof. The fastener and uses disclosed herein include any combination of the different species or embodiments disclosed. Accordingly, it is not intended that the scope of the disclosure in any way be limited by the above description.
