Definitions

• the present invention relates to an easy closure device to implement and adjust, it can adapt to any support, and to any closure wanting to avoid the extra thickness.
• This closure can be of the edge-to-edge or cross type, and can be used in leather goods, in the textile, or in the middle of the shoe, and in many other cases.
• This device can be used in the first layer of leather or any other support by removing or removing part of this thickness, or from below the thickness of the leather by cutting this thickness and by juxtaposing underneath the part or parts necessary to avoid the extra thickness.
• a closure by traction and pressure in order to obtain an easy closure.
• a shoe clamping means without creating an extra thickness formed by at least one tongue integral with the outer part of the rod, substantially perpendicular to its edge and an eyelet carried by the other internal part of the rod, the edge of which each inner and outer portion has at least one indentation.
• the tongue has at least one looped portion and it slides in the eyelet of the inner part, then it is intended to be folded by simply pressing on the adhesive notched portion of the other hung outer edge opposite the notch or lodge the eyelet after pressing on the tongue.
• the eyelet pivots at the bottom of 1 notch. This closure does not cause any extra thickness.
• the tongue starts from one edge passes in an eyelet fixed in another edge to fall back on itself on the adhesive part of hooked indented.
• the tongue is often composed of two parts: a buckled part to lodge in the indented part of hooked after being folded on itself, and a flat part, so that the eyelet can rotate in the housing of its indentation, when the tongue is folded without causing thick, according to the prior Patent No. 0400658. it has 0 necessarily in this clamping means, an eyelet which acts as a hoist so that the pressure of the tongue can be done to obtain a closure means without thickness.
• shoe closure device systems comprising at least one tongue attached to one of the edges set back from the free edge thereof and provided with a fastening means disposed opposite, at least in the area the free end intended to cooperate with complementary hooked means disposed opposite on the other edge, and even on the edge or is fixed the tongue.
• the tongue is sewn on one of the edges of the rod, then folds over the self gripping parts.
• This elastic part is located just on the kick and it undergoes various twists and pressures.
• the invention is a closure device applicable to all media, clothing, textiles, leather goods, shoes or all known media, as well as any known and appropriate material.
• This closure device comprises at least two edges and in at least one of the edges a tongue provided with a self-gripping textile and at least on the other edge facing is disposed a recess provided with complementary self-gripping means.
• an elastic part is retained by one end at an anchorage point under the said first edge and at the other longitudinal end of the elastic part is secured by gluing or sewing a tongue, while the other end free of the tongue opens outwardly from the first edge through a buttonhole or an outer slot made in and on the outer leather or other support of said edge, at a distance from its outer edge. So that pulling the 'tab, the traction exerted on the tab causes an extension of the resilient part which allows the tongue to extend out of the slot and to apply and to subdue the touch at least on the complementary part of the notch of the opposite edge
• the notches can be on both edges, in this case the tongue is applied, firstly on the indentation made on the edge where the tongue leaves and in a second movement on the notch of the opposite edge vis-à-vis -vis, in order to maintain a tight closure.
• the tongue extends over at least or almost half the lengths on the outer and inner sides without creating extra thickness.
• the anchoring part under said first edge is disposed at a distance such that it can provide a sufficient length of tongue under said first edge and secondly the elastic portion must be at a distance from the slot to the rest state, so that during maximum traction of the elastic portion, the portion of the tongue not visible under the first edge extends out of .de. the slit without the elastic part appearing or going through the slit.
• the traction on the tongue is effected so as to position the tongue to the maximum position of its housing formed by one or the indentations.
• the notches and the tongue are provided with self gripping means ensuring their subjection by simple pressure.
• the notches by way of example consist of a hook-type textile and the tongue consists of a curly type textile on the tongue.
• the tongue after tightening is housed in one or the respective indentations.
• Such clamping allows easy adjustment adapted, easy, aesthetic and avoids the attachment of dirt on the notches.
• the closure surface is provided with sufficient self-gripping means so that the tongue holds the foot. Less elastic surface is used, only part of the lateral force of the elastic is used in the case of a shoe closure. The adjustment is easy and adapted to each point of tightening.
• the tongue and its elastic can be fixed under said edge to an anchor point, and when pulling on the elastic, the free portion of the tongue passes through a said lateral slot of the outer free edge then slides in a loop fixed on a notch or on said opposite edge to extend and fasten on the complementary part of V notch of the first edge.
• the tongue is large enough to extend and fall back on itself.
• a fabric can be put under the tongue and sewn except at its end to support and allow extension in the same axis.
• One particularity relates to notches which can be made in two different ways: either by removing the thickness of the top of the leather and then sticking the textile part hanging on each of the indentations or by cutting the leather or by means of any other support corresponding to the indentations. In the latter case, from below is glued or is sewn at the locations of the indentations a hooked textile support and a lining hidden from below the adhesive hooked textile fabrics. The principle is to avoid the extra thickness so that the tongue can lodge on this the
• the notches can be of. curly type or hook depending on the game. covered with the tongue.
• the main function is its subjection by complementary means of VELCRO type, or other.
• the tongue is sewn and glued at one end, over a gripping length of at least one tenth of its length, to an elastic textile, as an indication if its length is 16 centimeters, the visible part of the tongue is 14.5 cm before extension passing through the slot.
• the elastic textile allows a maximum extension of the tongue of 1.5 cm depending on the length and quality of the elastic, it is attached sewn and glued in its extension under the inner part and lined from below a lining.
• the elastic textile is of the same width as the tongue. The extension of the elastic textile may be more or less important depending on the strength of the foot.
• This closure can be adapted for cross closures in this case, a tongue from one edge and passes through a slot.
• the slot is positioned at any distance from the free portion of said edge, and the tab after traction applies and closes by pressure on at least one or notch, on the opposite edge, for a so-called cross-type closure,
• the edge where the tongue is would be wider to cover the kick, and it would pass under another edge, such as the edge or the tongue passes under the other edge after closure.
• a tongue is also folded on a notch from which the tab and on a notch of the opposite edge, ie on two notches designed opposite to the two edges, for a closure so-called edge to edge.
• the tongue is generally fixed on the same edge, but in a variant aesthetically, said tongue could very well from the other side, and use alternative closures or not according to the requirement of fashion and support ; . . . . . . .
• the closure of the invention is to bring opposite edges either by crossing or edge to edge, through a tongue that leaves only one edge.
• the traction exerted on the tongue causes an extension of the elastic portion which allows the tongue to extend out of the slot and to apply and seat by pressure on the notched area of the same edge or and the opposite edge , without the elastic part appearing or passing through the slot.
• the elastic fabric stitched to the tongue allows to adjust the tongue on the scallops, and maintain it.
• the second technique is a tongue that comes out through a slit made in the outer side edge and not on the top of the leather, the tongue after pulling passes in an eyelet or loop placed on the opposite edge or in a notch to avoid the over thickness and the tab is folded to secure on the other edge on the complementary part of its notch.
• the tongue and the notch of said edge are provided with self gripping means. This technique increases the strength of this fastener.
• FIG. 1 illustrates a closure of two edges, of the edge-to-edge type, comprising at least one tongue in at least one edge used, as an indication, for a shoe whose textile parts for hanging the cut-outs of the two edges are sewn and glued from underneath the outer leather.
• the notches of the two edges are respectively opposite.
• FIG. 2 represents the closure according to FIG. 1, with the two edges close together.
• FIG. 3 illustrates a closure of two edges, comprising at least one tongue extending at least from one edge for a so-called crossed closure, used as an indication for a shoe whose hooked textile part is sewn from underneath the outer leather to the location of the notch, only on the opposite edge of the tongue.
• the boot may comprise several tongues and therefore several notches on the opposite edge in the boot.
