Description

Description Movement mechanism and brake in the skate

The present invention relates to a sports equipment such as a roller-skate twin-line skate, a frame for supporting wheels, and a shoe or a shoe mounting shoe.

-Regarding connection to the brake and brake. Background art

Conventionally, the shoe or the plate on which the shoe is mounted and the frame that supports the wheel are mainly integrated or uniaxially connected.The brake mechanism is a form in which fixed rubber is attached to the front and back of sports equipment and pressed against the ground. Others are known to have a shape in which the ankle is bent forward or backward and the wheel is braked using a wire rod.

With these sports equipment, beginners often lost their balance and fell when driving. Even a slight loss of balance causes the wheel to rotate on its own, causing the foot to flow forward or backward, leading to a fall. To prevent such a fall, catch this slight imbalance and stop the wheel immediately when the wheel tries to turn, whether it is forward or backward, to prevent it from falling. Was necessary and was a problem. Disclosure of the invention

In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a multi-axis mechanism in which two or more shafts are provided on a shoe or a plate on which a shoe is mounted, or a frame supporting a wheel, and the shoe or plate and the frame are connected through the shafts. And connect It incorporates a mechanism that allows the shoe or plate to move like a pendulum with respect to the frame around each of the axes.

With this multi-axis mechanism, it was possible to lower the heels of both feet at the same time, or to open the feet forward and backward, lower the heels of the front feet, raise the heels of the rear feet, and apply the brakes simultaneously with both feet.

When raising the heel of the hind leg, raise the heel to a certain angle or more and then apply the brake at the tip of the foot, so that the brake can be applied with a lower center of gravity like the telemark style of ski jumping It is.

In this multi-axis mechanism, the axis is distributed to the front and back of the foot, and the front axis is preferably located near or ahead of the thumb hill. Can be secured.

The rear axle is a position where the brake can be applied by lowering the heel with this axis as a fulcrum. The area near or behind the ankle of the foot is better, which also ensures stability during running.

To stabilize the movement of a shoe or plate like a pendulum, grooves and protrusions were provided to guide the shaft.

Furthermore, by adding a hinge-like movable plate to one axis, the hinge-like plate works as a guide, and the movement like a pendulum becomes more stable.

In addition, by incorporating a one-way rotation mechanism between the frame and the wheel, the reverse rotation of the wheel is stopped, so that the foot does not escape backward until the hind foot functions as a brake, The brake action in this multi-shaft mechanism was compensated for.

By incorporating a spring that returns the shoe or plate to the running position, the frame does not sag when the foot is lifted. Stable when driving In addition to maintaining a stable posture, kicking and braking can be performed stably.

Next, a link mechanism that connects and interlocks the front brake and the rear brake, or a belt, chain, wire, etc. is provided, and a part of it is pushed and pulled by raising and lowering the heel. The front and rear brakes are applied simultaneously. As a result, the brakes can be applied reliably.

A mechanism in which the front brake and the rear brake are connected by a link mechanism or connected by a belt, a tune, a wire, or the like to simultaneously apply the front and rear brakes is hereinafter referred to as a brake interlocking mechanism.

When you lose balance or want to apply a brake by using the multi-axis mechanism, one-way rotation mechanism, and brake interlocking mechanism, apply the brakes on both feet simultaneously by lowering the heel or raising the heel. Things come out.

As a result, even if the brakes on one foot were worn and the effectiveness became worse, the brakes could be applied with the other foot, greatly improving safety.

This multi-axis mechanism lowers the heel, raises the heel, raises the heel, and lowers the toe, so that the rubber for the brake can be pressed against the ground, or a part of the brake interlocking mechanism can be pushed or pulled. You can apply the brakes.

In the brake interlocking mechanism, the brake can be applied by pressing the brake shoe against the wheel or the drum disk integrated with the wheel. With this brake interlocking mechanism, it is possible to make adjustments so that the brakes can be applied even with slight loss of balance or foot operation.

In this way, the brake interlocking mechanism simultaneously shakes the front and rear wheels. —Because the brakes can be applied, all wheels can be braked and the brakes can be applied more reliably. It goes without saying that it is effective to brake the front and rear wheels independently.

As in the third embodiment, in the case of a mechanism that applies braking only to the rear wheel, the heel is raised to bring the toe into contact with the frame. The fulcrum can be used to lift the front shaft 33 and apply the brake.

When the front and rear brakes are connected as in this brake interlocking mechanism and the front and rear wheels are braked at the same time, a spring is incorporated in this mechanism to prevent the brake from being applied to only one of the front and rear wheels. "We have made it possible to adjust the tension balance for the rake.

In this brake interlocking mechanism, the shoe or the plate on which the shoe is mounted and the frame can be connected and operated by one axis. A shoe or plate is connected to a part of the brake interlocking mechanism at a position closer to the foot than this axis, and the heel is lowered with this axis as a fulcrum, causing the joint to shake.

—You can pull up part of the key linkage and push down part of the brake linkage with the heel to brake the front and rear wheels simultaneously.

In addition, with a mechanism that links the front and rear brakes using a belt or chain wire, the tension of the brakes that act on the front and rear wheels, the drums and the disks that are linked to the wheels, and the discs are easily applied evenly, and are stable. You can apply the brakes.

It can also function by connecting the front brake to the toe of the shoe or the plate to which the shoe is attached using a belt or chain wire, and connecting the rear brake to the heel. . In this case, it is better to incorporate a spring to adjust the tension of the front and rear brakes. Brake mechanisms that use these belts or chain wires can reduce weight.

In this way, by incorporating the multi-axis mechanism, one-way rotation mechanism, and brake interlocking mechanism together, there are various braking methods, and even if you lose your balance while driving, your feet can move forward or backward. It did not flow, and it was able to maintain its position, making it an extremely stable sporting equipment.

The use of sports equipment such as the conventional roller-skate line-skate required a high level of skill and skill. The characteristic of this sports equipment is that the wheels can rotate freely at any time. It was difficult to adjust the balance, and even stationary on the spot was unstable and required a lot of practice.

Beginners in particular often lose balance, and even a slight loss of balance causes the wheels to rotate on their own, causing the feet to flow forward or backward, leading to a fall. In order to prevent such a fall, it is necessary to catch this slight imbalance and stop the wheel immediately when the wheel tries to turn unexpectedly to prevent the fall.

The present invention has solved these weaknesses. By incorporating the multi-axis structure, one-way rotation mechanism and brake interlocking mechanism according to the present invention, anyone can easily adjust and stop the balance without requiring high skills and skill, and the stability is greatly improved. It was done.

Because of this stability, anyone can use this sporting equipment, and it can be enjoyed by everyone as a simple sporting equipment when going to a vacation spot with family or friends. It became a sporting tool that could be used more easily by people of various ages.

Because it is small, it can be put in the trunk of a car for everyone.

It can be expected that the present invention will increase the number of sports people and increase the number of healthy people.
