Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de montage et de fermeture pour chaussure et plus particulièrement pour chaussure de sport.The present invention relates to a mounting and closing device for a shoe and more particularly for a sports shoe.
Pour mettre en évidence les différentes fonctions assurées par la chaussure, il a été nécessaire de procéder à l'étude des problèmes anatomiques, à savoir l'étude de la meilleure adaptation du pied à la chaussure et à sa surface de travail.To highlight the different functions provided by the shoe, it was necessary to study anatomical problems, namely the study of the best adaptation of the foot to the shoe and its work surface.
En particulier, dans le domaine de la chaussure de sport, il est très important que les efforts développés par l'athlète soient transmis avec le minimum de déformation et, ce, dans les meilleures conditions de confort physiologique pour le pied. En outre, bien souvent, la légèreté de la chaussure est un élément important.In particular, in the field of sports shoes, it is very important that the efforts developed by the athlete are transmitted with the minimum of deformation and this, under the best conditions of physiological comfort for the foot. In addition, very often, the lightness of the shoe is an important element.
Le compromis se situe donc autour des chaussures suffisamment structurées pour éviter que les déformations n'affectent les transmissions mécaniques et suffisamment souples et légères pour répondre aux exigences de la compétition.The compromise is therefore around shoes which are sufficiently structured to prevent deformations from affecting the mechanical transmissions and which are flexible and light enough to meet the requirements of competition.
La présente invention a pour but d'assurer une totale solidarité entre le pied et la chaussure tout en assurant un confort et une sécurité maximaux au moindre poids.The object of the present invention is to ensure total solidarity between the foot and the shoe while ensuring maximum comfort and security at the lowest weight.
Conformément à la présente invention, on utilise un dispositif de montage et de fermeture pour chaussure caractérisé en ce qu'entre la tige et la semelle de la chaussure est fixée une sangle au niveau du creux plantaire qui constitue dans le pied en extension l'endroit où se transmettent les efforts, ladite sangle enserrant totalement la tige de la chaussure et comportant un organe de fermeture assurant la liaison des deux extrémités de la sangle.In accordance with the present invention, a mounting and closing device for a shoe is used, characterized in that between the upper and the sole of the shoe is fixed a strap at the level of the plantar hollow which constitutes in the foot in extension the place where the forces are transmitted, said strap completely enclosing the upper of the shoe and comprising a closure member ensuring the connection of the two ends of the strap.
Le retour de la sangle s'effectue par l'intermédiaire d'une boucle légèrement cintrée, permettant par un décalage de la partie rabattante dans un sens ou dans l'autre une adaptation anatomique à tous les cous-de-pied.The return of the strap is made via a slightly curved loop, allowing by an offset of the folding part in one direction or the other anatomical adaptation to all the instep.
Cette sangle assure également le soutien de la voûte plantaire, évitant ainsi les déformations de la structure du pied (pieds plats) constatées par les podologues, et diminuant la fatigue consécutive à l'effort.This strap also provides support for the arch of the foot, thus avoiding deformations of the foot structure (flat feet) observed by podiatrists, and reducing fatigue following effort.
Les parties avant et arrière de la chaussure peuvent être montées avec toutes les méthodes de montage, avec ou sans utilisation de demi-première de montage ou de renforts (ailettes, bouts durs, contreforts, cambrions).The front and rear parts of the shoe can be fitted with all mounting methods, with or without the use of a fitting semi-premiere or reinforcements (fins, hard tips, buttresses, shanks).
L'utilisation du montage radial de la sangle de fermeture supprime en outre les fermetures classiques, en donnant au serrage du pied les possibilités de réglage maximales, le maintien étant garanti par la totale stabilité dimensionnelle de la sangle.The use of the radial mounting of the closure strap also eliminates conventional closures, giving the tightening of the foot the maximum adjustment possibilities, the maintenance being guaranteed by the total dimensional stability of the strap.
La réduction de poids apportée par l'invention est également importante par l'extrême simplification du dispositif de montage et de fermeture et la suppression des renforts indéformables habituellement utilisés pour pallier les déformations longitudinales.The reduction in weight provided by the invention is also important by the extreme simplification of the mounting and closing device and the elimination of the non-deformable reinforcements usually used to compensate for longitudinal deformations.
Le dispositif suivant l'invention procure une sécurité supplémentaire qui résulte de la suppression du laçage et des boucles pouvant accasionner certains incidents tels que l'ouverture intempestive, la chute due aux lacets qui traînent, les déformations importantes entraînant le déchaussage, le disfonctionnement du pied dans l'effort pouvant causer des crampes ou autres désagréments.The device according to the invention provides additional security which results from the removal of the lacing and loops which can accasiser certain incidents such as untimely opening, the fall due to dragging laces, major deformations causing the heaving, the foot malfunction in the effort that can cause cramps or other inconvenience.
Dans l'effort du pied en extension (dans la plupart des disciplines sportives) et plus particulièrement pendant la position de tirage (cyclisme) la déformation de la chaussure classique s'effectue essentiellement longitudinalement, le point d'application de l'effort se situant au talon alors que le point de contact avec le sol, donc la résistance à l'effort, se trouve sous l'avant-pied.In the effort of the foot in extension (in most sports) and more particularly during the pulling position (cycling) the deformation of the classic shoe takes place essentially longitudinally, the point of application of the effort being in the heel while the point of contact with the ground, therefore the resistance to effort, is under the forefoot.
Le dispositif suivant l'invention pallie cet inconvénient dans la mesure où le serrage du pied dans le creux plantaire permet l'application de l'effort sur la totalité de la sangle radiale, ce qui augmente la surface de répartition (d'où une moindre déformation à l'effort identique) et rapproche le point de tirage du point de résistance.The device according to the invention overcomes this drawback insofar as the tightening of the foot in the plantar recess allows the application of the force over the whole of the radial strap, which increases the distribution surface (hence a lesser deformation with the same force) and brings the draw point closer to the point of resistance.
En outre le coefficient de déformation de la sangle elle-même est faible, négligeable au niveau des forces appliquées par les athlètes pendant l'effort.In addition, the coefficient of deformation of the strap itself is low, negligible in terms of the forces applied by athletes during exercise.
Dans certaines disciplines sportives où le pied atteint des vitesses élevées notamment le cyclisme, l'aérodynamisme de la chaussure revêt un caractère essentiel. La fermeture de la sangle au moyen d'un velours à crochets permet, du fait de l'étroite solidarité de la partie crochets sur la partie comportant des boucles, une excellente pénétration dans l'air nettement supérieure aux dispositifs classiques de fermeture.In certain sports disciplines where the foot reaches high speeds, in particular cycling, the aerodynamics of the shoe is essential. The closure of the strap by means of a velvet with hooks allows, because of the close solidarity of the hooks part on the part comprising loops, an excellent penetration in the air markedly superior to conventional closing devices.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention seront mieux compris à la lecture de la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation et en se référant aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels :
- la figure 1 est une vue de dessus d'une chaussure suivant l'invention, montée sur une forme et avec la sangle en position ouverte ;
- la figure 2 est une même vue de dessus de la chaussure avec la sangle en position de fermeture ; et
- la figure 3 est une vue de dessous de la chaussure suivant l'invention avec la semelle démontée et la sangle en position de fermeture.
- Figure 1 is a top view of a shoe according to the invention, mounted on a form and with the strap in the open position;
- Figure 2 is the same top view of the shoe with the strap in the closed position; and
- Figure 3 is a bottom view of the shoe according to the invention with the sole removed and the strap in the closed position.
Aux figures 1, 2 et 3 on a représenté une chaussure et plus particulièrement une chaussure de sport sur laquelle est fixée, entre la tige 1 et la semelle 2, une sangle 3 enserrant totalement la tige 1 de la chaussure. La sangle 3 est fixée sur la tige au niveau du creux plantaire la qui constitue dans le pied en extension l'endroit où se transmettent les efforts.In Figures 1, 2 and 3 there is shown a shoe and more particularly a sports shoe on which is fixed, between the upper 1 and the sole 2, a
L'une des extrémités de la sangle 3 comporte une boucle 4 dans laquelle est engagée l'autre extrémité 3a de la sangle qui est rabattue sur la partie supérieure de la sangle. Pour assurer le maintien de l'extrémité 3a de la sangle sur la partie supérieure de cette dernière, on utilise un moyen de fermeture connu, mais plus particulièrement un velours à crochets qui comporte sur les faces, en regard de la sangle, des séries de crochets qui sont engagés dans des séries de boucles.One end of the
La boucle 4,légèrement cintrée, permet par décalage de la partie rabattante dans un sens ou dans l'autre une adaptation anatomique à tous les cous-de-pied.
Bien entendu diverses modifications peuvent être apportées par l'homme de l'art au dispositif ou procédé qui vient d'être décrit uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art to the device or method which has just been described solely by way of nonlimiting example without departing from the scope of the invention.
