Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to lacing systems and, in particular, to lace lockers for facilitating tensioning and de-tensioning lacing systems.
  • In-line skates, quad skates, ice skates, snowboard boots, ski boots, and other sporting footwear often include a high-back boot upper that attaches to a boot sole, and receives the user's foot, thereby securing the skate or other footwear to the user.
  • An opening or vamp is typically provided near the front of the upper to facilitate putting on and taking off the boot.
  • Various mechanisms for securing the boot upper about the user's foot are known and commonly practiced in the art.
  • skates, such as in-line skates frequently include both a lace-type fastening system and a strap-type fastener.
  • the lace-type fastening system allows the user to tighten the upper along at least a portion of the length of the vamp, providing a secure and comfortable fit for the user.
  • one or more strap assemblies -typically having oppositely-disposed straps attached on either side of the vamp and employing an adjustable buckling mechanism—provide a strong and secure attachment. Strap assemblies are typically located near the top of the upper, providing a binding force about the user's ankle. Often a second strap assembly is provided that extends generally over the user's instep.
  • the strap-type fastener is typically much sturdier than the lace system and, therefore, provides a more robust connection that is able to withstand the stresses of even a very rigorous skater's activity, while also protecting the lace from excessive stresses.
  • Lace lockers typically provide a lace-clamping mechanism that may be slidably disposed on the laces, and is adapted to releasably hold the laces in a tightened configuration.
  • An example of a lace locker is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,477,593 to Leick. Leick discloses a lace locker having a circular locking member slidably disposed in a converging cavity of a body that is adapted to receive a lace. When the locking member is near the narrow end of the cavity, it clampingly engages the laces.
  • the locking member When the locking member is near the wider end of the cavity, the locking member releases the lace, permitting the lace locker to slide along the length of the lace (or the lace to slide through the lace locker).
  • the locking member is biased toward the locking position, i.e., toward the narrow end of the cavity, and a "pusher" button is attached to the locking member, permitting the user to move the locking member against the biasing force to release the lace.
  • prior art lace lockers require two hands to engage and/or disengage the lace locker.
  • a user in a slidable lace locker a user must grasp the lace in one hand and grasp the lace locker with the other hand to push the lace locker along a portion of the length of the lace.
  • the user to remove a boot equipped with such lace lockers, the user must first loosen the lace locker and then typically pull outwardly on the tongue of the boot.
  • Another disadvantage of prior art lace lockers is that the lace locker must be positioned generally at the top of the uppermost lace keeper to hold the lace in the tightened position.
  • a device for releasably securing a lace is disclosed, that is particularly, though not exclusively, suitable for using in athletic footwear, such as skates and the like.
  • the disclosed lace locker may be conveniently secured to a boot tongue, for example, and provides a quick and simple means for the user to tension a lace, and/or to selectively release the lace tension.
  • a lace locker in the currently preferred embodiment, includes a housing that pivotably supports an activation mechanism such as a cam lever.
  • the cam lever includes a lever portion that extends out of the housing, and is engaged by the user to release the lace locker, that is, to move the lace locker form the locking position to the release position.
  • the lever portion includes an aperture therethrough, adapted to accommodate the lace.
  • the cam lever also includes a cam portion, that may be toothed.
  • the cam portion is disposed adjacent a wall portion of the housing, defining a channel therebetween that is adapted to receive the lace.
  • a biasing element such as a spring, may bias the cam lever towards the locking position.
  • the disclosed lace locker includes an attachment flange, that may be used to attach the lace locker, for example to the tongue of a sports boot.
  • an attachment flange that may be used to attach the lace locker, for example to the tongue of a sports boot.
  • To tighten the lace the user simply pulls upwardly on the lace.
  • the tension in the lace will tend to further hold the lace locker toward the locking position.
  • To release tension in the lace the user simply pushes upwardly on the lever portion of the cam lever, to move the lace locker towards the release position.
  • a latching mechanism is provided to optionally allow the user to temporarily latch the lace locker in the release position.
  • FIGURE 1 is a front view of a lace locker according to the present invention, attached to the upper portion of a tongue of a sports boot;
  • FIGURES 2 A and 2B are perspective views of the lace locker shown in FIGURE 1, FIGURE 2A showing the lace locker in the locking position, FIGURE 2B showing the lace locker in the open position;
  • FIGURE 3 is a cross-sectional side view of the lace locker shown in FIGURES 1 ;

  • FIGURE 1 shows a lace locker 100 made in accordance with the present invention, and mounted near the upper end of a tongue 92 on a sports boot 90, for example an inline skate boot.
  • the boot 90 includes an elongate slot or vamp 98 that is biased to a closed position by a conventional lace 96.
  • a conventional strap assembly 94 is also provided, generally about the ankle portion of the boot 90.
  • the lace locker 100 is preferably attached to the tongue 92, and above the strap assembly 94. As discussed in more detail below, the lace locker 100 allows the user to easily tension the lace 96, by simply pulling upwardly on the lace 96.

It can now be seen that the cam lever 120 includes the lever portion 122 and an attached or integral cam portion 123. In this embodiment the cam portion 123 is integral with the lever portion 122.
  • the lever portion 122 includes a cutout or aperture 121 therethrough.
  • the lace 96 is clampingly engaged between the cam portion 123 of the cam lever 120 and the front wall 114 of the housing 110, and extends upwardly through the cutout or aperture 121 in the lever portion 122 of the cam lever 120.
  • the cam portion 123 of the cam lever 120 may also include outwardly-extending teeth 124 that are positioned to engage the lace 96 when the cam lever 120 is in the locking position.
  • the teeth 124 are positioned on the cam portion 123 above the pivot point of the cam lever 120, such that when the lace 96 is in tension during use, the lace 96 will produce a generally downward force on the teeth 124 of the cam lever 120, thereby urging the cam lever 120 towards the locking position, and improving the clamping engagement of the lace 96.
  • the housing 110 includes a pair of oppositely disposed rearward walls 131 (one visible in Figure 3).
  • the cam portion 123 of the cam lever 120 has a transverse aperture 133 therethrough, at the pivot point for the cam lever 120.
  • a pivot pin 135 extends through the cam lever transverse aperture 133 and through oppositely disposed, apertures (not visible) in the rearward walls 131, to pivotably attach the cam lever 120 to the housing 110.
  • a spring or other biasing device may optionally be provided to bias the cam lever 120, preferably towards the locking position.
  • the flange 112 of the lace locker 100 provides a surface to facilitate very secure attachment of the lace locker 100 to the boot, for example to the tongue or other portion of the boot upper.
  • the flange 112 may, for example, be sewn to the boot, and/or may be disposed underneath an outer layer of the boot.
  • An adhesive or other fixative may be used to fix the lace locker 100 to the boot.
  • the lace locker 100 may alternatively be removably attached to the boot, for example by providing the lace locker 100 with a releasable engagement mechanism, such as a hook or the like that engages a corresponding engagement mechanism (not shown) on the boot.
