Abstract

The assembly consists of a rubber or polymer under sole (40), a sole reinforcing element (50), and an upper reinforcing element (20) that is connected to the sole reinforcing element so they are supple in a transverse direction. The connection between the two reinforcing elements is made by sticking them to an intermediate shock-absorbing sole (60). The upper reinforcing element is also attached to the shoe's upper.

Description

La présente invention est relative aux chaussures dont le semelage est réalisé suivant une structure stratifiée présentant plusieurs couches ou éléments remplissant des fonctions distinctes et se rapporte en particulier au couplage d'un élément de renfort de la tige avec l'un des éléments du semelage.The present invention relates to shoes, the sole assembly of which is carried out according to a laminated structure with several layers or elements fulfilling functions distinct and relates in particular to the coupling of a rod reinforcing element with one elements of the sole assembly.

Par le US 6,000,148 a été proposée une construction de chaussure comportant, d'une part, un semelage comprenant une semelle d'usure et un élément de renfort de semelage, et d'autre part, un élément de renfort de tige qui est couplé à l'élément de renfort de semelage, une couche de renfort amortissante et élastique du semelage étant interposée entre la tige et ledit élément de renfort de semelage.By US 6,000,148 a shoe construction was proposed comprising, on the one hand, a sole assembly comprising a outsole and a sole reinforcement element, and the other part, a rod reinforcement element which is coupled to the sole reinforcement element, a shock absorbing and elastic reinforcing layer of the sole being interposed between the upper and said sole reinforcement element.

Le couplage des éléments de renfort de tige et de renfort de semelage permet une transmission optimum des mouvements du pied à la semelle.The coupling of the rod reinforcement and sole reinforcement elements allows a optimum transmission of movements from the foot to the sole.

Une telle construction est particulièrement intéressante pour la marche ou la course sur des terrains accidentés car elle permet d'améliorer la stabilité du pied, la précision des appuis dans l'interface semelage / sol tout en permettant le déroulement du pied.Such a construction is particularly advantageous for walking or running on uneven terrain because it improves the stability of the foot, the precision of the supports in the sole / soil interface while allowing the foot to unfold.

Une telle construction de chaussure est donc particulièrement indiquée pour des applications de type "raid", c'est-à-dire impliquant de la course à pied dans des terrains accidentés.Such a shoe construction is therefore particularly suitable for "raid" type applications, that is to say running in terrain casualties.

Bien que très satisfaisante et apportant une excellente tenue et stabilité en direction transversale, une telle construction de chaussure s'avère cependant trop rigide, notamment en direction transversale pour certains utilisateurs privilégiant l'aspect course et/ou ayant des exigences moins élevées en ce qui concerne l'aspect stabilité transversale.Although very satisfactory and providing excellent handling and directional stability transverse, such a shoe construction proves to be too rigid, in particular in transverse direction for certain users favoring the racing aspect and / or having lower requirements regarding the transverse stability aspect.

Le but de la présente invention est de remédier à ces inconvénients et de perfectionner une chaussure du type précitée.The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks and to improve a shoe of the aforementioned type.

Ce but est atteint dans la chaussure selon l'invention qui est du type comportant, d'une part, un semelage comprenant au moins une semelle d'usure et un élément de renfort de semelage et, d'autre part, un élément de renfort de la tige qui est couplé à l'élément de renfort de semelage, par le fait que le couplage de l'élément de renfort de semelage et de l'élément de renfort de tige est souple au moins en direction transversale.This object is achieved in the shoe according to the invention which is of the type comprising, on the one hand, a sole assembly comprising at least one outsole and a sole reinforcement element and, on the other hand, a rod reinforcing element which is coupled to the reinforcing element sole assembly, by the fact that the coupling of the sole reinforcement element and the element of rod reinforcement is flexible at least in transverse direction.

En effet, le couplage souple en direction transversale de l'élément de renfort de semelage et de l'élément de renfort de tige permet d'assouplir la chaussure pour une application course tout en conservant une excellente transmission des mouvements du pied à la semelle via la tige.Indeed, the flexible coupling in transverse direction of the sole reinforcement element and of the reinforcement element of the rod allows to soften the shoe for a race application while retaining excellent transmission of movement from the foot to the sole via the upper.

Une telle construction est donc toujours adaptée à une utilisation en terrain accidenté, tout en étant plus optimisée pour une application course.Such a construction is therefore always suitable for use in uneven terrain, all by being more optimized for a racing application.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le couplage de l'élément de renfort de semelage et de l'élément de renfort de tige est effectué via une semelle intermédiaire amortissante.According to a preferred embodiment, the coupling of the sole reinforcement element and the rod reinforcement element is effected via a shock absorbing midsole.

De toute façon, l'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres caractéristiques de celle-ci seront mises en évidence à l'aide de la description qui suit en référence au dessin schématique annexé, en illustrant à titre d'exemples non limitatifs plusieurs modes de réalisation et dans lequel :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective avant d'une chaussure comportant un renfort de tige et de semelage selon l'invention,
  • la figure 2 est une vue de dessous de l'ensemble renfort de semelage / semelle intermédiaire,
  • la figure 3 est une vue en perspective éclatée du semelage complet avant assemblage,
  • la figure 4 est une vue en coupe selon IV-IV de la figure 2,
  • la figure 5 est une vue en coupe selon V-V de la figure 2,
  • la figure 6 est une vue en perspective d'un élément de renfort du semelage et de tige selon un second mode de réalisation.
In any case, the invention will be better understood and other characteristics thereof will be highlighted with the aid of the description which follows with reference to the appended schematic drawing, illustrating by way of nonlimiting examples several modes and in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a shoe comprising a upper and sole reinforcement according to the invention,
  • FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the sole reinforcement / midsole assembly,
  • FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the complete sole assembly before assembly,
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view along IV-IV of FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 5 is a sectional view along VV of FIG. 2,
  • Figure 6 is a perspective view of a sole and rod reinforcement element according to a second embodiment.

La chaussure 1 représentée à titre d'exemple non limitatif sur la figure 1 comporte une tige 10 munie d'un renfort de tige 20 et un semelage 30 comportant une structure stratifiée décrite ci-après en référence aux figures 2 à 5.The shoe 1 shown by way of nonlimiting example in FIG. 1 comprises a upper 10 provided with a rod reinforcement 20 and a sole assembly 30 comprising a laminated structure described below with reference to Figures 2 to 5.

Ainsi que le montre plus particulièrement la figure 3, le semelage 30 est constitué, du bas vers le haut, d'une semelle d'usure 40, d'un élément de renfort de semelage 50 et d'une semelle intermédiaire 60.As shown more particularly in Figure 3, the sole assembly 30 is constituted, from the bottom upwards, a outsole 40, a sole reinforcement element 50 and a sole intermediate 60.

La semelle d'usure 40, également appelée semelle de marche est en un matériau adhérent et résistant à l'usure tel que de préférence du caoutchouc, mais aussi du polyuréthane ou polymère sur base thermoplastique.The outsole 40, also called a walking sole, is made of an adherent material and wear resistant such as preferably rubber, but also polyurethane or polymer on thermoplastic base.

La semelle intermédiaire 60 est en un matériau amortissant tel que EVA, polyuréthane ou alliage de polymères thermodurcissables.The midsole 60 is made of a cushioning material such as EVA, polyurethane or alloy of thermosetting polymers.

Elle est fixée directement sur la tige 10 de la chaussure et s'étend sur toute la surface du semelage. L'élément de renfort de semelage 50 est constitué par une plaque en matériau relativement rigide et présentant de préférence des caractéristiques d'élasticité, tel que polyamide, polyuréthane, PEBE, PEBA, PBT.It is fixed directly to the upper 10 of the shoe and extends over the entire surface of the the sole assembly. The sole reinforcement element 50 consists of a plate of material relatively rigid and preferably having elasticity characteristics, such as polyamide, polyurethane, PEBE, PEBA, PBT.

Il peut également être constitué par un insert textile de préférence inextensible et résistant à l'abrasion, telle que polyester, polyamide, rigidifié par de la colle, telle que colle polyuréthane, thermofusible ou néoprène.It can also consist of a textile insert, preferably inextensible and resistant to abrasion, such as polyester, polyamide, stiffened by adhesive, such as polyurethane adhesive, hot melt or neoprene.

Chacun des éléments 40, 50, 60 formant le semelage forme une couche s'étendant sensiblement sur toute la surface dudit semelage et/ou du pied de l'utilisateur. Notamment l'élément de renfort 50 s'étend sur pratiquement toute la longueur du semelage correspondant à celle du pied de l'utilisateur, et comporte des découpes destinées à assouplir ledit renfort en direction transversale et/ou longitudinale afin de permettre un meilleur déroulement du pied, et plus de sensations en direction transversale.Each of the elements 40, 50, 60 forming the sole assembly forms a layer extending substantially over the entire surface of said sole assembly and / or the foot of the user. Especially the reinforcing element 50 extends over practically the entire length of the sole assembly corresponding to that of the user's foot, and includes cutouts intended to soften said reinforcement by transverse and / or longitudinal direction in order to allow a better unrolling of the foot, and more sensations in transverse direction.

Ainsi l'élément de renfort 50 comporte à l'avant des fentes 51 en forme de chevrons et s'étendant jusqu'au bord médial de l'élément de renfort 50. Chaque fente 51 comporte une grande branche 52 orientée sensiblement selon l'axe d'articulation métatarsophalangienne du pied et s'étendant sur à peu près la moitié de la surface transversale de l'élément de renfort 50. Thus the reinforcing element 50 comprises at the front slots 51 in the form of chevrons and extending to the medial edge of the reinforcing element 50. Each slot 51 has a large branch 52 oriented substantially along the metatarsophalangeal axis of articulation of the foot and extending over approximately half of the transverse surface of the reinforcing element 50.

Ces fentes 52 sont destinées à faciliter la flexion dudit élément de renfort 50, suivant la direction de l'axe d'articulation métatarsophalangienne, et donc de faciliter le déroulement du pied.These slots 52 are intended to facilitate the flexing of said reinforcing element 50, according to the direction of the metatarsophalangeal articulation axis, and therefore to facilitate the progress of the foot.

Chaque grande branche 52 de chaque fente 51 se prolonge jusqu'au bord médial de l'élément de renfort 50 par une petite branche 53 s'étendant sensiblement à 90° par rapport à la direction de ladite grande branche 52.Each large branch 52 of each slot 51 extends to the medial edge of the reinforcing element 50 by a small branch 53 extending substantially at 90 ° relative to the direction of said great branch 52.

Le but des petites branches ou fentes 53 est d'assouplir l'élément de renfort 50 sur le bord médial pour de meilleures sensations du terrain.The purpose of the small branches or slots 53 is to soften the reinforcing element 50 on the edge medial for better field sensations.

De petites fentes 54 orientées dans le prolongement des fentes 52 et donc symétriquement aux fentes 53 par rapport à l'axe longitudinal L de l'élément de renfort 50, s'étendent quant à elles jusqu'au bord latéral de l'élément de renfort 50, de façon à assouplir ce bord latéral de l'élément de renfort pour de meilleures sensations du terrain.Small slots 54 oriented in the extension of the slots 52 and therefore symmetrically to the slots 53 relative to the longitudinal axis L of the reinforcing element 50, extend as to them to the side edge of the reinforcing element 50, so as to soften this side edge of the reinforcing element for better terrain sensations.

Au niveau du talon, l'élément de renfort 50 se subdivise en deux branches respectivement médiale 55 et latérale 56, de façon à assouplir l'élément de renfort 50 en direction transversale et fournir de meilleures sensations, d'un bord médial à l'autre latéral du semelage et inversement. Au niveau de la voûte plantaire, l'élément de renfort est aminci et présente des bords droits ou légèrement concaves 58.At the heel, the reinforcing element 50 is subdivided into two branches respectively medial 55 and lateral 56, so as to soften the reinforcing element 50 in the transverse direction and provide better sensations, from one medial edge to the other lateral of the sole and Conversely. At the level of the arch of the foot, the reinforcing element is thinned and presents straight or slightly concave edges 58.

Bien entendu, la forme décrite ci-avant de l'élément de renfort peut être différente en fonction des effets recherchés. La forme décrite ci-avant est conçue spécifiquement pour une application course, d'où la souplesse en déroulement et les découpes destinées à favoriser les sensations.Of course, the shape described above of the reinforcing element can be different in depending on the desired effects. The shape described above is designed specifically for a race application, hence the flexibility of the course and the cuts intended to promote sensations.

La semelle d'usure 40 s'étend essentiellement sur toute la surface du semelage et présente des découpes 41 destinées essentiellement à visualiser l'élément de renfort 50.The outsole 40 extends essentially over the entire surface of the sole assembly and has cutouts 41 intended essentially to display the reinforcing element 50.

L'élément de renfort de tige 20 est constitué dans le cas présent d'un élément tridimensionnel sensiblement en forme de U 21, comportant à chacune de ses extrémités un retour 22.The rod reinforcement element 20 consists in the present case of an element three-dimensional substantially U-shaped 21, having at each of its ends a back 22.

La partie en forme de U 21 de l'élément de renfort de tige 20 est destinée à entourer la partie talon de la semelle intermédiaire 60 et de la tige 10 de la chaussure, et à y être fixée par collage.The U-shaped part 21 of the rod reinforcement element 20 is intended to surround the heel part of the midsole 60 and the upper 10 of the shoe, and to be attached to it by bonding.

Chacun des retours 22 de l'élément de renfort 20 s'étend transversalement vers l'intérieur par rapport à la partie en forme de U, de façon à venir bord à bord contre les bords 58 de l'élément de renfort de semelage 50 au niveau de la zone de la voûte plantaire tout en laissant un jeu compris entre 0 et 5mm environ.Each of the returns 22 of the reinforcing element 20 extends transversely inwards relative to the U-shaped part, so as to come edge to edge against the edges 58 of the sole reinforcement element 50 at the level of the arch area while leaving a clearance between approximately 0 and 5mm.

Le couplage de l'élément de renfort 20 à l'élément de renfort 50 s'effectue via la semelle intermédiaire 60 sur laquelle ces deux éléments sont fixés, par exemple par collage.The reinforcement element 20 is coupled to the reinforcement element 50 via the sole intermediate 60 on which these two elements are fixed, for example by gluing.

De préférence, la semelle EVA comporte en creux une empreinte correspondant au profil/contour des deux éléments de renfort 20, 50 et dont la profondeur correspond à l'épaisseur desdits éléments de renfort. Preferably, the EVA sole has a hollow imprint corresponding to the profile / contour of the two reinforcing elements 20, 50 and the depth of which corresponds to the thickness of said reinforcing elements.

Lors du montage de la chaussure, les deux éléments de renfort 20, 50 sont mis en place dans les empreintes associées de la semelle intermédiaire 60 et assemblés à cette dernière par collage. La semelle d'usure 40 est également collée à l'ensemble et le semelage 30 ainsi constitué est assemblé par collage à la tige 10 de la chaussure, la partie supérieure du U 21 de l'élément de renfort 20 étant également collé à la tige.When mounting the shoe, the two reinforcing elements 20, 50 are put in place in the associated imprints of the midsole 60 and assembled to the latter by bonding. The outsole 40 is also glued to the assembly and the sole assembly 30 thus constituted is assembled by gluing to the upper 10 of the shoe, the upper part of the U 21 of the reinforcing element 20 also being glued to the rod.

Par cette construction, on obtient, via le collage sur la semelle intermédiaire 60, un couplage souple de l'élément de renfort de tige 30 avec l'élément de renfort de semelage 50. En fait, l'élément de renfort de tige 20 est à la fois un élément de renfort de tige 20 et de renfort du semelage 30.By this construction, there is obtained, by bonding to the midsole 60, a flexible coupling of the rod reinforcement element 30 with the sole reinforcement element 50. In fact, the rod reinforcement element 20 is both a rod reinforcement element 20 and reinforcement of the sole assembly 30.

Ce couplage souple des deux types de renforts 20, 50 permet de concilier les exigences contradictoires de rigidité, tenue latérale du pied sur terrain accidenté et souplesse liée aux exigences de la course à pied.This flexible coupling of the two types of reinforcement 20, 50 makes it possible to reconcile the requirements contradictory stiffness, lateral grip of the foot on uneven terrain and flexibility linked to running requirements.

La figure 6 décrit un autre mode de réalisation dans lequel les éléments de renfort de tige et de semelle sont intégrés côté médial et latéral. Dans ce cas, l'élément de renfort de semelage 150 est constitué de deux parties respectivement médiale 160, 170 et latérale 180, 190. La partie médiale comporte une partie allongée sensiblement plane 160 s'étendant sur une demi-moitié, en direction longitudinale, du semelage, et une branche 170 entourant à moitié le talon côté médial. La branche 170 comporte une patte verticale 171 s'élevant à partir de la partie plane 160 au niveau de la zone de la voûte plantaire et s'arrondissant par une patte 172 en demi U autour d'une première moitié de talon, côté médial. L'autre partie 180, 190 de l'élément de renfort comporte de façon symétrique une partie allongée sensiblement plane 180 et s'étendant sur une demi-moitié, en direction longitudinale, du semelage, et une branche 190 entourant à moitié le talon côté latéral par une patte verticale 192 et une patte en demi U 192.FIG. 6 describes another embodiment in which the rod reinforcement elements and sole are integrated medial and lateral side. In this case, the sole reinforcement element 150 consists of two medial parts 160, 170 and lateral respectively 180, 190. The medial part comprises a substantially planar elongated part 160 extending over half a half, in the longitudinal direction, from the sole, and a branch 170 half surrounding the heel medial side. The branch 170 has a vertical tab 171 rising from the part plane 160 at the level of the arch of the foot and rounded by a leg 172 in half U around the first half of the heel, medial side. The other part 180, 190 of the reinforcing element symmetrically comprises a substantially planar elongated part 180 and extending over half a length, in a longitudinal direction, of the sole assembly, and a branch 190 half surrounding the heel on the lateral side with a vertical tab 192 and a half U tab 192.

Les deux parties planes 160, 180 comportent des pattes transversales respectivement 161, 181, imbriquées les unes dans les autres.The two flat parts 160, 180 have transverse lugs respectively 161, 181, nested one inside the other.

Le couplage des deux parties de renfort médiale et latérale est effectué comme précédemment via le collage de chacune de ces deux parties sur la semelle intermédiaire au niveau de leurs parties plane 160, 180, et au niveau de la tige via leurs branches 170, 190.The coupling of the two medial and lateral reinforcement parts is carried out as previously by bonding each of these two parts to the midsole at level of their flat parts 160, 180, and at the level of the rod via their branches 170, 190.

Le couplage s'effectue donc essentiellement en direction longitudinale, avec un effet au niveau transversal selon la longueur des pattes transversales 161, 181.The coupling is therefore carried out essentially in the longitudinal direction, with an effect at transverse level along the length of the transverse legs 161, 181.

Ce mode de réalisation présente l'avantage de permettre des rigidités différentes des éléments de renfort 160, 170, et 180, 190, et donc de fournir une rigidité/renfort asymétriques côté médial et latéral selon l'effet recherché.This embodiment has the advantage of allowing different rigidities of the reinforcement elements 160, 170, and 180, 190, and therefore provide asymmetric stiffness / reinforcement medial and lateral side depending on the desired effect.

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits ci-avant à titre d'exemple non limitatif, mais en englobe tous les modes de réalisation similaires ou équivalents.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above by way of nonlimiting example, but encompasses all similar embodiments thereof or equivalent.
