Description

SPORTS SHOE Technical field
The present invention relates to a sports shoe preferably usable for sports such as roller skating, in¬ line skating, ice skating, hockey, mountain skiing, cross¬ country skiing, snowboarding, basketball, or gymnastics. Background Art Current conventional sports shoes, such as for example skates, are constituted by a rigid shell that is adapted to contain a soft innerboot for the user's foot; an equally rigid quarter is articulated to said shell by means of studs, rivets, or other fastening systems located at the alleolar region.
These conventional sports shoes therefore have two rigid components that are articulated to each other to allow the leg to flex with respect to the foot; the rigidity of the shell and of the quarter allows to transmit forces.
These conventional sports shoes, however, have drawbacks in contrast with the above-mentioned advantages.
In skiing, the knee has a very active role in transmitting forces, whereas the ankle remains very static inside the relatively rigid structure constituted by the shell and by the quarter, which are nonetheless articulated in a point that is adjacent to the malleolar region.
In dynamic terms, this is correct; in terms of fit, however, it is not possible to achieve, for all users, optimum positioning of the seats for the malleoli due to the predefined articulation point constituted by the studs .
In skating, the ankle has a much more active role in generating forces; the consequent static condition of the ankle is a drawback, but said ankle must be protected against the torques that might be generated during sports practice by less expert skaters.
The current structure of the skate shoe is very similar to that of the ski boot, and excellently protects the ankle against torques but prevents the use of maximum efficiency in the movements that allow advanced practice of the sport.
Skaters who are experts in speed skating and roller and ice hockey conventionally wear, for this purpose, skates having a soft leather shoe that leaves the ankles free to act by controlled flexing. Disclosure of the Invention
A principal aim of the present invention is therefore to solve the described problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the cited prior art, by providing a sports shoe that allows the user to perform a correct movement of the foot while maintaining good support and protection for the foot and ankle.
Within the scope of this aim, an important object is to provide a shoe that allows to achieve a comfortable fit that can be adapted to the different foot shapes of the various users that lead to an individually different location of the malleoli.
Another important object is to provide a sports shoe having an optimum ratio between rigidity and flexing, both longitudinally and laterally, in order to achieve optimum performance even at the beginner's level.
Another object is to obtain, together with the above characteristics, a shoe the rigidity whereof is such as to allow optimum protection of the user's foot against any torques that can occur during sports practice.
Another object is to provide a shoe that is reliable and safe in use, can be obtained with low production costs, and can be produced with conventional machines and equipment. This aim, these objects, and others that will become apparent hereinafter are achieved by a sports shoe, comprising a soft innerboot that has a cuff that partially wraps around the user's leg, characterized in that a semirigid collar is associated with said cuff and is laterally provided with first guiding seats for tabs that protrude from a semirigid body associated with said innerboot at least in the heel region, said collar being connected to said body at the rear. Brief description of the drawings
Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of a particular embodiment thereof, illustrated only by way of non-limitative example in the accompanying drawings, wherein: figures 1 and 2 are, respectively, a side view and a rear view of a soft innerboot; figures 3 and 4 are, respectively, a side view and a rear view of the innerboot of the preceding figures with a collar associated therewith; figures 5 and 6 are, respectively, a side view and a rear view of the shoe of figure 5, with a reinforcement associated therewith; figure 7 is a side view of the invention; figures 8 and 9 are, respectively, a rear view and a sectional view, taken along the plane IX-IX of figure 7, of the sports shoe; figure 10 is an exploded view of the shoe. Ways of carrying out the Invention
With reference to the above figures, the reference numeral 1 designates a sports shoe, particularly for roller skating, in-line skating, ice skating, hockey, mountain skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, basketball, or gymnastics.
The sports shoe 1 is constituted by an innerboot 2, preferably made of blanked or injection-molded soft material, possibly preformed by injection, which is stitched or welded so as to assume a desired shape.
In the innerboot 2, the reference numeral 3 designates a first tip region and the reference numeral 4 designates, at the opposite end, a second heel region. Said innerboot 2 furthermore has a cuff 5 that partially wraps around the user's leg and in which a tongue 5a is formed to the rear; said tongue is provided by forming two longitudinal openings that partially affect the cuff 5 starting from its upper end. A semirigid collar 6 is associable with the cuff 5 and partially wraps around said cuff 5 at the part lying above the second heel region 4, so as to affect the rear and lateral parts of the leg.
An essentially V-shaped central recess 6a is formed to the rear on the collar 6; its vertex is arranged approximately below the point where the tongue 5a couples to the cuff 5; a first protrusion 7a and a second protrusion 7b are provided adjacent to the recess 6a and protrude, in a tapering fashion, laterally to the innerboot 2 at the second heel region 4 so as to protect the malleoli.
A first circular opening and a second circular opening are provided respectively above the first protrusion 7a and the second protrusion 7b of the collar
6, and therefore above the malleoli, and are adapted to form first seats 8a and 8b.
A first band 9a and a second band 9b protrude from the upper perimetric edge of said first seats 8a and 8b. The collar 6 is preferably sewn laterally to the cuff 5, as shown in figure 9, where the seams are designated by the reference numeral 10.
The collar 6 is provided, at the rear, with an anchoring protrusion 11 the transverse cross-section whereof is preferably shaped like an inverted L, with the free end arranged at the sole of the sports shoe 2.
A thinner region is provided perimetrically to the recess 6a of the collar 6 and thus forms a depression 12.
A reinforcement 13 is associated with the collar 6 and is superimposed on the cuff 5 externally and to the rear, so that the lower perimetric edge is accommodated at the depression 12 and is connected thereto by conventional coupling means 14; said reinforcement 13 is thus superimposed on the tongue 5a. A first semirigid body 15 is associated with the innerboot 2 and is constituted by a mid-sole 16 shaped complementarily to the lower part of said innerboot 2; a third band 17 protrudes perimetrically from the mid-sole 16 and wraps around the second region 4 of the innerboot 2 until it reaches approximately the pre-arch region.
A first tab 19a and a second tab 19b protrude from the third band 17 in the opposite direction with respect to the mid-sole 16 and are mirror-symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal median plane lying at right angles to said mid-sole 16.
The first tab 19a and the second tab 19b can be inserted, with their free end, at the first seats 8a and
8b that are present on the collar 6, which thus act as a guide for the free sliding of said first and second tabs 19a and 19b.
The third band 17 is provided, to the rear, with an engagement means 20 for the protrusion 11.
A second semirigid reinforcement and protection body 18 can be arranged at the first tip region 3 and is shaped complementarily to said first region 3.
The first body 15 and the second body 18 can of course be formed together monolithically.
Operation is as follows: the collar 6 is associated with the innerboot 2, thus placing the first seats 8a and 8b at the malleolar region; the rear reinforcement 13 is associated with the collar 6 by means of rivets or other devices; then the first body 15 is associated with the innerboot 2, inserting the upper end of the first and second tabs 19a and 19b in the first guiding seats 8a and 8b to position them between the collar 6 and the cuff 5; then the second body 18 is associated with the first tip region 3.
The lack of rivets or studs at the malleolar region and most of all the free connection between the tab and the collar in that point allow the user's foot to move both longitudinally and laterally, in a controlled manner, with respect to the shoe.
It has thus been observed that the conceived shoe has achieved the intended aim and objects, since it allows the user to perform a correct movement of the foot while maintaining good support and protection for the foot and the ankle, since the collar is semirigid and fixed to the innerboot; this allows to achieve an excellent ratio between rigidity and flexing in order to achieve optimum performance even at the beginner level.
The shoe furthermore allows to achieve a comfortable fit that can be adapted to the shape differences of the user's feet, which become apparent in the position of the malleoli, since said region is not occupied by studs or rivets.
The invention is of course susceptible of numerous modifications and variations, all of which are within the scope of the same inventive concept.
The materials and the dimensions constituting the individual components of the device may of course be the most appropriate according to the specific requirements.
