Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de retenue d'une chaussure sur un article de sport et concerne plus particulièrement à un perfectionnement d'un dispositif de retenue par sangle, ou similaire.The present invention relates to a device for retaining a shoe on a sporting article and relates more particularly to a enhancement of a strap retainer, or the like.
L'invention est plus spécifiquement prévue pour retenir une chaussure sur une plaque pivotante destinée à retenir une chaussure sur une raquette à neige, mais elle peut être utilisée pour tout type d'article de sport, sans pour autant sortir du champ de l'invention, comme par exemple pour une fixation destinée à la pratique du surf, ski, ou autre.The invention is more specifically intended to retain a shoe on a pivoting plate for holding a shoe on a snowshoe, but it can be used for any type of snowshoe sport without departing from the scope of the invention, as example for a fixing for the practice of surfing, skiing, or other.
Les raquettes à neige sont des engins connus depuis de très nombreuses années car utilisées depuis plusieurs siècles par les populations scandinaves pour se déplacer sur la neige. Jusqu'à nos jours, les raquettes à neige étaient utilisées à des fins utilitaires ou militaires, pour permettre aux populations et aux troupes alpines de se déplacer sur la neige dans leurs déplacements nécessités par la vie quotidienne. Actuellement, les raquettes à neige sont plutôt utilisées par des promeneurs ou des sportifs qui font des randonnées et des promenades, voire même des compétitions.Snowshoes are gear known since very many years because used for centuries by the Scandinavian populations to move on the snow. Until our days, snowshoes were used for utilitarian or military purposes, to allow people and alpine troops to move on the snow in their movements necessitated by everyday life. Currently, snowshoes are used by walkers or sportsmen who go on hikes and walks, even competitions.
Les dispositifs de retenue des chaussures des utilisateurs sur les raquettes à neige connus comportent le plus souvent des moyens de retenue avant et des moyens de retenue arrières disposés sur une plaque articulée sur le tamis. Ces dispositifs de l'art antérieur présentent généralement une bonne tenue de l'extrémité avant de la chaussure sur la plaque, mais présentent cependant des inconvénients dans la tenue de l'extrémité arrière de la chaussure. En effet, si les moyens de retenue avant de la raquette sont généralement prévus pour pouvoir s'adapter à n'importe quel type de chaussure tout en assurant une bonne tenue de l'avant du pied, les moyens de retenue arrières, eux, ne présentent pas de telles caractéristiques.The devices for retaining the shoes of the users on the Known snowshoes most often include means of front retainer and rear retainer arranged on a plate articulated on the sieve. These devices of the prior art exhibit generally a good hold of the front end of the shoe on the plate, but nevertheless have disadvantages in the holding of the back end of the shoe. Indeed, if the means of restraint before snowshoes are usually provided to be able to adapt to any type of shoe while ensuring a good performance of the front of the foot, the rear retaining means, they do not present such characteristics.
On connaít, par exemple, de nombreux types de moyens de retenue arrières destinés par exemple à être disposés sur des plaques articulées telles que des talonnières coulissantes ou fixes, lesdites talonnières étant destinées à maintenir le talon de l'utilisateur contre la plaque à l'aide d'une courroie ou d'une sangle de serrage sollicitant le pied de l'utilisateur vers l'arrière contre une paroi de butée de la talonnière. La présente invention se propose d'améliorer la sangle de retenue arrière qui est destinée à passer sur le coup de pied.There are, for example, many types of ways of rear restraint intended for example to be arranged on plates articulated such as sliding or fixed heels, said heels being intended to hold the heel of the user against the plate using a belt or a strap tightening the foot the user backwards against an abutment wall of the heel. The The present invention proposes to improve the rear retaining strap which is meant to go on the kick.
Les sangles actuelles sont constituées par une sangle textile comprenant une boucle de réglage en longueur afin de l'adapter à la dimension de la chaussure de l'utilisateur et assurer un serrage efficace sans jeu, notamment au niveau du coup de pied.The current straps are constituted by a textile strap comprising a length adjustment loop in order to adapt it to the dimension of the user's shoe and ensure effective tightening without play, especially at the level of the kick.
Les sangles textiles sont maintenant souvent remplacées par une sangle rigide ou semi-rigide réalisée avec un matériau plastique. Ces sangles sont constituées par deux portions reliées entre elles par des moyens de verrouillage de type tel que par exemple un dispositif à cliquet destiné à coopérer par incrémentation avec une succession de dents réalisées sur l'autre portion de sangle. Ces moyens de verrouillage permettent d'adapter la longueur de la sangle au volume de la chaussure, et notamment du périmètre de coup de pied, mais aussi d'assurer un serrage correct pour avoir une retenue satisfaisante de la chaussure. Cependant, ces sangles ne permettent pas de s'adapter aux plus grandes et aux plus petites pointures et comprennent généralement des préréglages avec des vis, ce qui nécessite un outillage et prend du tempsTextile straps are now often replaced by a rigid or semi-rigid strap made of a plastic material. These straps are constituted by two portions interconnected by locking means of the type such as for example a ratchet device intended to cooperate in incrementation with a succession of teeth made on the other portion of the strap. These locking means allow to adapt the length of the strap to the volume of the shoe, including the kick perimeter, but also to ensure a correct tightening to have a satisfactory restraint of the shoe. However, these straps do not allow to adapt to larger and at the smallest sizes and usually include presets with screws, which requires tooling and takes time
La présente invention veut résoudre les inconvénients des systèmes traditionnels grâce à des moyens simples, fiables, peu onéreux et facile à mettre en oeuvre afin d'obtenir une tenue satisfaisante de la chaussure, un préréglage rapide, ainsi qu'une mise en place simple et pratique.The present invention seeks to overcome the disadvantages of traditional systems through simple, reliable, inexpensive easy to implement in order to obtain a satisfactory performance of the shoe, a quick preset, as well as a simple set-up and convenient.
Ainsi, selon l'invention la sangle de retenue comprend des premiers moyens ou moyens de préréglage de la longueur de la sangle et des deuxièmes moyens ou moyens de réglage final de la longueur de sangle, de serrage et de verrouillage assurant le réglage final de la longueur de la sangle. Notons que selon l'invention les premiers moyens ou moyens de préréglage, sont indépendants des deuxièmes moyens ou moyens de réglage final.Thus, according to the invention, the retaining strap comprises first means or means for presetting the length of the strap and second means or means for final adjustment of the length of strap, tightening and locking ensuring the final adjustment of the length of the strap. Note that according to the invention the first means or presetting means, are independent of the second means or final adjustment means.

Selon une autre caractéristique, la sangle principale comprend les deuxièmes moyens ou moyens de réglage final de la longueur de sangle de serrage et de verrouillage assurant le réglage final de la longueur de la sangle, tandis qu'elle est constituée par deux portions de sangle reliées entre elles par des moyens de verrouillage de type comprenant par exemple à cliquet pivotant monté pivotant sur l'une des portions de sangle, destiné à coopérer par incrémentation avec une succession de dents de retenue réalisées sur l'autre portion de sangle.According to another characteristic, the main strap comprises the second means or means for final adjustment of the strap length of tightening and locking ensuring the final adjustment of the length of the strap, while it is constituted by two portions of connected strap between them by locking means of the type comprising by example pivoting ratchet pivotally mounted on one of the portions of strap, intended to cooperate in incrementation with a succession of retaining teeth made on the other portion of the strap.
Ajoutons que la sangle principale est réalisée en matériau semi-rigide comme par exemple en matière plastique, et que la première portion de sangle principale est reliée à la sangle secondaire, tandis que l'autre portion ou deuxième portion de sangle principale est reliée à la pièce de retenue arrière.Let's add that the main strap is made of semi-rigid material as for example plastic, and that the first portion main strap is connected to the secondary strap, while the other portion or second portion of the main strap is connected to the rear restraint.
Selon une autre caractéristique, la sangle secondaire comprend en combinaison avec la sangle principale à laquelle elle est reliée les premiers moyens de réglage ou moyens de préréglage de la longueur de la sangle, ladite liaison étant constituée par une liaison réglable formée par une boucle de réglage tandis que ladite sangle secondaire est reliée par son extrémité libre à la pièce de retenue, et que son autre extrémité est engagée dans la boucle de réglage, cette dernière étant solidaire ou constituant l'extrémité de la première portion de la sangle principale.According to another characteristic, the secondary strap comprises in combination with the main strap to which it is connected first adjusting means or means for presetting the length of the strap, said link being constituted by an adjustable link formed by a adjusting loop while said secondary strap is connected by its free end to the retainer, and that its other end is engaged in the adjustment loop, the latter being integral or constituting the end of the first portion of the main strap.
Précisons que la sangle secondaire est une sangle en textile souple, voir en matière plastique soupleIt should be noted that the secondary strap is a flexible textile strap, see in flexible plastic
On a compris que le dispositif de l'invention permet d'avoir un réglage précis et permet une libération de la chaussure très grandement favorisée, ce qui en cas de blocage du système de réglage final par exemple en cas de gel ou d'accumulation de neige est un avantage indéniable.It is understood that the device of the invention makes it possible to have a precise adjustment and allows a release of the shoe very greatly favored, which in case of blockage of the final adjustment system for example in case of frost or snow accumulation is an undeniable advantage.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention se dégageront de la description qui va suivre en regard des dessins annexés qui ne sont donnés qu'à titre d'exemple non limitatif. Other features and advantages of the invention will emerge of the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings which are not given by way of non-limiting example.
Les figures 1 et 2 sont respectivement des vues, d'une part, de dessus de la raquette à neige équipée du dispositif de retenue selon l'invention, pour la figure 1, et d'autre part, latérale pour la figure 2 de la même raquette, la figure 1 étant représentée sans la chaussure pour une meilleure compréhension.Figures 1 and 2 are respectively views, on the one hand, of above the snowshoe equipped with the restraint according to the invention, for FIG. 1, and on the other side, for FIG. same racket, FIG. 1 being shown without the boot for a Better comprehension.
La figure 3 est une vue en perspective illustrant mieux l'invention.Figure 3 is a perspective view illustrating the invention better.
La figure 4 est une vue en perspective, montrant la raquette avec sa plaque pivotante équipée du dispositif de retenue de chaussure selon l'invention.Figure 4 is a perspective view, showing the racket with its swivel plate equipped with the shoe retainer according to the invention.
La raquette désignée sous la référence générale (1) se présente sous la forme d'une plaque ajourée de plan de symétrie général (P), fixée sous la chaussure et qui se compose d'un cadre principal (2) et d'un tamis (4) comprenant un ensemble de parois supportant le dispositif de retenue (5) de la chaussure (6) de l'utilisateur, comme le montrent les figures 1 et 2.The racket designated by the general reference (1) is in the form of a perforated plate of general plane of symmetry (P), fixed under the shoe and which consists of a main frame (2) and a sieve (4) comprising a set of walls supporting the retainer (5) of the shoe (6) of the user, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
Ledit tamis (4) avec son ensemble de parois internes forme une surface inférieure générale d'appui sur la neige permettant à l'utilisateur de ne pas trop s'enfoncer dans la neige, et ce, grâce à la surface portante relativement importante. Notons que le dispositif de retenue (5) de la chaussure (6) est, selon l'illustration donnée à titre d'exemple, articulé par rapport au tamis (4) de la raquette proprement dite, selon un axe transversal (XX').Said sieve (4) with its set of internal walls forms a general lower surface of support on the snow allowing the user not to sink too much in the snow, thanks to the bearing surface relatively important. Note that the retaining device (5) of the shoe (6) is, according to the illustration given by way of example, articulated by compared to the sieve (4) of the racket itself, along an axis transverse (XX ').
Le dispositif de retenue portant la référence générale (5) est constitué de façon avantageuse par une plaque articulée (9) comprenant des moyens de retenue pour la chaussure, à savoir, des moyens de retenue avant (10) et des moyens de retenue arrières (11). The retainer bearing the general reference (5) is advantageously constituted by an articulated plate (9) comprising retaining means for the boot, namely, retaining means front (10) and rear retaining means (11).
Ainsi, l'extrémité avant (12) de la chaussure retenue par les moyens de retenue avant (10) est, par exemple, constituée par un étrier avant (13), tandis que son extrémité arrière (14) l'est, grâce à une des moyens de retenue arrière (11) comprenant une pièce arrière de retenue (15).Thus, the front end (12) of the shoe retained by the front retaining means (10) is, for example, constituted by a stirrup before (13), while its rear end (14) is, thanks to one of rear retaining means (11) comprising a rear retaining piece (15).
Selon l'invention, les moyens de retenue arrières (11) comportent un dispositif de serrage destiné à permettre le serrage et ainsi la fixation, et la retenue latérale et verticale de l'extrémité arrière (14) de la chaussure (6) contre ou à l'intérieur d'un logement ouvert vers l'avant formés par un ensemble de parois de la pièce arrière de retenue (15). Bien entendu l'invention n'est pas limitée à un système dont l'avant de la chaussure est retenue par un étrier, car l'invention peut s'appliquer à une fixation d'un tout autre genre.According to the invention, the rear retaining means (11) comprise a clamping device for clamping and thus fixing, and the lateral and vertical restraint of the rear end (14) of the shoe (6) against or inside a forward-facing housing formed by a set of walls of the rear retaining piece (15). Of course the invention is not limited to a system whose front of the shoe is retained by a stirrup, because the invention can be applied to a fixation of a any other kind.
Ajoutons que la pièce arrière de retenue (15) est montée coulissante et réglable en position sur la plaque (9) et comprend une paroi d'emboítement (150) de talon, et c'est contre cette paroi qu'est retenue la talon de la chausure grâce au dispositif de l'invention.Let's add that the rear retaining piece (15) is mounted sliding and adjustable in position on the plate (9) and comprises a wall interlocking (150) heel, and it is against this wall that is retained heel of the shoe thanks to the device of the invention.
Ainsi, la chaussure est retenue dans la pièce arrière de retenue (15) grâce à une sangle ( 21) dite sangle de coup de pied. Cette dernière forme une boucle dont les extrémités sont fixées à la pièce arrière de retenue (15) et plus particulièrement à sa paroi d'emboítement et plus précisément à ses parois latérales (15a, 15b), tel que cela est visible sur la figure 3.Thus, the shoe is retained in the rear retaining piece (15) thanks to a strap (21) known as a kick strap. This last form a loop whose ends are fixed to the rear retaining piece (15) and more particularly to its wall nesting and more precisely to its side walls (15a, 15b), as can be seen in FIG.
Selon l'invention, la sangle de retenue (21) comprend des premiers moyens ou moyens de préréglage de la longueur de la sangle (R1), et des deuxièmes moyens ou moyens de réglage final de la longueur de sangle, de serrage et de verrouillage assurant le réglage final de la longueur de la sangle (R2), ces derniers étant indépendants des moyens de préréglage. According to the invention, the retaining strap (21) comprises first means or means for presetting the length of the strap (R1), and second means or means for final adjustment of the strap length, tightening and locking mechanism ensuring the final adjustment of the length of the strap (R2), the latter being independent of the presetting means.
Ainsi, la sangle de coup de pied (21) est constituée par une sangle principale (21a) et une sangle secondaire (21b).Thus, the kick strap (21) is constituted by a strap main (21a) and a secondary strap (21b).
La sangle principale (21a) comprend les deuxièmes moyens (R2) ou moyens de réglage final de la longueur de sangle de serrage et de verrouillage assurant le réglage final de la longueur de la sangle. Cette sangle principale (21a) est constituée par deux portions de sangle (210, 211) reliées entre elles par des moyens de verrouillage de type comprenant par exemple à cliquet pivotant (22) monté pivotant sur l'une des portions de sangle (211, ou 210), destiné à coopérer par incrémentation avec une succession de dents de retenue (23) réalisées sur l'autre portion de sangle (210, ou 211). Ces moyens de verrouillage permettent d'adapter la longueur de la sangle au volume de la chaussure, afin d'assurer un serrage correct pour avoir une retenue satisfaisante de la chaussure.The main strap (21a) comprises the second means (R2) or means for final adjustment of the length of the tightening strap and locking ensuring the final adjustment of the length of the strap. This main strap (21a) is constituted by two portions of strap (210, 211) interconnected by locking means of type comprising for example with pivoting ratchet (22) pivotally mounted on one of the portions strap (211, or 210) for incrementally cooperating with a succession of retaining teeth (23) made on the other portion of strap (210, or 211). These locking means make it possible to adapt the length of the strap to the volume of the shoe, to ensure a tightening correct to have a satisfactory restraint of the shoe.
La sangle principale (21a) est réalisée en matériau semi-rigide comme par exemple en matière plastique. La première portion de sangle principale (211) est reliée à la sangle secondaire (21b), tandis que l'autre portion (210) ou deuxième portion de sangle principale est reliée à la pièce de retenue arrière (15).The main strap (21a) is made of semi-rigid material as for example plastic. The first portion of strap (211) is connected to the secondary strap (21b), while the other portion (210) or second portion of main strap is connected to the workpiece rear retainer (15).
La sangle secondaire (21b) comprend en combinaison avec la sangle principale à laquelle elle est reliée les premiers moyens de réglage (R1), ou moyens de préréglage de la longueur de la sangle.The secondary strap (21b) comprises in combination with the main strap to which it is connected the first means of adjustment (R1), or means for presetting the length of the strap.
Ainsi, la liaison de la sangle secondaire (21b) avec par exemple la première portion de sangle principale (211) est constituée par une liaison réglable formée par une boucle de réglage (24).Thus, the connection of the secondary strap (21b) with, for example, the first portion of the main strap (211) is constituted by a connection adjustable formed by an adjusting loop (24).
On notera que cette sangle secondaire (21b) est reliée par son extrémité libre à la pièce de retenue (15), et plus particulièrement à sa paroi d'emboítement (150), tandis que son autre extrémité est engagée dans la boucle de réglage (24), cette dernière étant solidaire ou constituant l'extrémité de la première portion (211) de la sangle principale.It will be noted that this secondary strap (21b) is connected by its free end to the retaining piece (15), and more particularly to its nesting wall (150), while its other end is engaged in the adjustment loop (24), the latter being integral or constituting the end of the first portion (211) of the main strap.
Grâce à la sangle de l'invention l'utilisateur opérera un préréglage de longueur par les premiers moyens de réglage ou moyens de préréglage (R1), permettant d'adapter la fixation à la pointure de la chaussure et centrer la sangle principale (21a) sur le coup de pied, et lors de chaque chaussage il n'aura qu'à utiliser les deuxièmes moyens ou moyens de réglage final (R2) de la longueur de sangle de serrage et de verrouillage pour assurer le réglage final de la longueur de la sangle, permettant la retenue de la chaussure.With the strap of the invention the user will operate a presetting length by the first adjustment means or presetting means (R1), to adapt the binding to the size of the shoe and center the main strap (21a) on the kick, and at each he will only have to use the second means or means of final adjustment (R2) of the tightening and locking strap length to ensure the final adjustment of the length of the strap, allowing the restraint of the shoe.
Ajoutons que la sangle principale peut avantageusement comprendre une pièce de confort (211a) pour le coup de pied, tel qu'illustrée schématiquement en traits pointillés sur la figure 3, et dans ce cas on a compris que les premiers moyens de réglage (R1), permettent de centrer ladite pièce de confort sur le coup de pied, assurant ainsi un meilleur confort et une meilleure tenue de pied.Let's add that the main strap can advantageously include a comfort piece (211a) for the kick, such schematically illustrated in dashed lines in Figure 3, and in this case it has been understood that the first adjustment means (R1) make it possible to centering said comfort piece on the kick, thus ensuring a better comfort and better footing.
On notera que la sangle secondaire (21b) est avantageusement réalisée par une sangle textile souple.Note that the secondary strap (21b) is advantageously made by a flexible textile strap.
La sangle de l'invention peut bien entendu être utilisée pour retenir une chaussure sur une planche de glisse tel qu'un ski ou un surf, voir un ski nautique et autre.The strap of the invention can of course be used for hold a shoe on a snowboard such as a ski or a surf, see a water ski and other.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemples, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques ainsi que leurs combinaisons.Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes of described and illustrated as examples, but it includes also all technical equivalents as well as their combinations.
