Description
CA 022~7896 1998-12-11 W 098/00206 PCTA~P97/03362 ACCESSORY FOR ROLLER SKATES WITH ~ONGITUDI~IALLY ALIGNED
WHEELS
This invention relates to an accessory for roller skates with longitudina!ly aligned wheels.
Roller skates are known consisting of a boot to which there is applied a substantially inverted U-shaped frame, on the flanges of which there are mounted a plurality of pivot pins for hard plastic wheels.
In addition to the normal activity of skating on roads7 one of the preferred pastimes of the expert is to skate along the handrail of stairways. In1 Q performing this the skater generally rests one of the boot sole portions, external to the frame, on the handrail and rests the other skate transversely tothe handrail on an arched portion provided in the lower edge of its flanges.
A drawback of this sporting practice is that with the passage of time the boot wears down at the soleS making it practically unserviceable. To this there must be added the fact that the sole has a high friction coefficient whichmakes it difficult to slide along the handrail.
These draw~acks are eliminated according to the invention through an accessory for roller skates with longitudinally aligned wheels as described in claim 1.
The present invention is further clarified hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an accessory according to the invention;
Figure 2 is a side view thereof applied to a boot; and Figure 3 is a view thereof from below.
As can be seen from the figures, the accessory according to the invention consists of a half-oversole 2 formed of rigid plastic material such as . CA 022~7896 1998-12-11 W O 98/00206 PCT~EP97/03362 an acetal resinl for example DE~RIN(R), which on pofished wood or metal surfaces presents a low friction coefficient. Said half-oversole 2 comprises a lateral rim 4 the profile of which substantially follows the contour of the sole 8 of the boot 6 to which the half-oversoie 2 is applied, and also comprises a 5 curved appendix 10 for engagement with the front edge 12 of one of the fianges 14 of the skate 16.
The skate is a traditional roller skate consisting of an inverted-U frame 18 comprising a plurality of pivot pins 2~ for longitudinally aligned wheels 22.In correspondence with the rear end of the sole, the latera~ surface of 10the boot 6 comprises a rib 23 which engages in a corresponding groove 25 provided in the half-oversole.
Besides being secured at the appendix 1û and being engaged with the rib, the accessory is also fixed to the boot 6 and its rear raised rim by screws(not shown on the drawings) which engage in the boot shell.
15In the central region between the wheels 221 the edge of the frame flanges comprises a concave portion 24 for engaging the handrail.
From the aforegoing it is apparent that the accessory according to the invention presents numerous advanta~esl and in particular.
- it prolec;ls the boot sole against wear, 2û - it can be easily replaced if worn, without requiring the aid of specialized personnel or special tools, - it can be replaced by another of different rigidity andfor roughness, - it can give the boot a pleasing outer appearance by being formed in particular chromatic colours andlor by carrying personalized writing.
