Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for retaining a shoe on a sports machine, for which the retention of the shoe is done using at least one link.
  • Such devices are used for the practice of snowboarding or snowboarding, skiing on snow or water, snowshoeing, roller skating, or whatever.
  • a link device generally comprises a lateral flange and a medial flange which delimit between them a zone for receiving the shoe, as well as at least a link connected to each of the lateral and medial flanges by a lateral fastening and by a fastening medial. At least one of the lateral and medial attachments allows a rotational movement a lateral portion or a medial portion of the link, along an axis substantially perpendicular to the lateral or medial flange. Each of the lateral and medial portions of the link occupies an angular reference position when the link is tight to retain the shoe. In makes the link adapts to the shape of the shoe.
  • the link can be opened.
  • the link is one-piece, it is opened by separating a lateral portion or medial relative to the flange to which it is attached.
  • the link is multi-room, it can be opened by separating portions one by compared to each other.
  • a toothed portion which is used to adjust the length of the link, is made from of a molded plastic. This portion has a curvature which allows it to better press against the shoe to tighten it.
  • the object of the invention is in particular to facilitate putting on and taking off by reducing, or even removing the discomfort caused by the link portion (s).
  • the invention proposes a device for retaining a shoe on a sport, the device comprising a lateral part and a medial part delimiting an area of the shoe, as well as at least one link connected to each of the lateral parts and medial by a lateral attachment and by a medial attachment, at least one of the lateral attachments and medial allowing movement of a lateral or medial portion of the link relative to the lateral or medial part, each of the lateral and medial portions of the link occupying a position, reference with respect to the lateral or medial part when the link is tight for hold the shoe.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that, for at least one of the lateral and medial portions of the link, a means of spacing partially spreads at least the lateral and / or medial portion of the reception area, when the lateral and / or medial portion moves to move away from the reference position.
  • the portion or portions that constitute it can be moved respectively with respect to the part, for example in rotation, towards the rear or towards the front of the device.
  • the spacer means spreads the or portions outside the reception area. Therefore the passage of the shoe between the parties is facilitated. The discomfort caused by each portion of link is reduced, even non-existent. The putting on is easier.
  • a retaining device 1 allows the removable retaining on a board 2 of a shoe not shown.
  • the retaining device 1 comprises a base 3 which extends longitudinally between a rear end 4 and a front end 5.
  • the base 3 has an upper face 6 intended to be opposite the sole of the shoe, and a lower face 7 intended to be above the board.

  • the flanges 12, 13 run along the sole laterally.
  • the flanges 12, 13 are connected by a hoop 14 at the end rear 4.
  • the base 3, the flanges 12, 13 and the arch 14 form a single piece made for example of synthetic material.
  • the flanges or the arch are parts secured to the base by any other means, such as bonding, welding, screwing, interlocking, or other.
  • a rear support element 15 allows a user to take back support with lower leg.
  • the rear support element 15 is secured to the flanges 12, 13 for example by means of a hinge 16.
  • Two links are also provided for removably retaining the boot on the base. 3, between the flanges 12, 13, in a reception area 17.
  • a first link 20 is located towards the front, at the level of the metatarsophalangeal joint when the foot is retained.
  • a second link 21 is located towards the rear, at the instep when the foot is retained.
  • Each of the links 20, 21 extends transversely between the flanges 12, 13.
  • the first link 20 is represented in the form of an association of two portions, which are a lateral portion 22 and a medial portion 23.
  • a connecting means is provided for removably connecting the lateral portion 22 and the medial portion 23 to each other.
  • This means comprises for example a clamping mechanism ratchet 24, fixed at a free end 25 of the medial portion 23.

  • Each lateral 22 and medial 23 portion is attached to the lateral flange 12 or medial side 13 opposite the reception area 17.
  • Each of the fasteners 32, 33 is shown in the form of a joint, comprising for example a screw, a rivet, or a pin with or without washer, or the like. Of course, it other fastening structures could be provided.
  • each of the fasteners 32, 33 allows a rotational movement of the associated portion 22, 23 of the link 20, relative to the lateral flange 12 or medial 13, along a lateral axis 34 or medial 35 substantially perpendicular to the lateral flange 12 or medial 13. Consequently the first link can tilt forwards or backwards of the device 1.
  • the link 20 When the link 20 is tight around the shoe, it naturally goes into a reference position, which the occurrence is an angular position. This position is the one for which the first link 20 is supported in a substantially homogeneous manner on the shoe. It then covers a portion of the rod being pressed intimately to it.
  • a spacing means partially spreads at least the lateral 22 and / or medial portion 23 of the reception area, when the lateral portion 22 and / or medial portion 23 moves away from the reference position.
  • Each of the links 20, 21 is open, and their respective lateral 22 and medial portions 23 have been rotated forward. This made it possible to bring the lateral portions 22 closer together. and medial 23 towards the plane which contains the base 3.
  • the means for spreading the portion side 22 of the first link comprises a side cam 40 secured to the side portion 22.
  • the lateral cam 40 is represented in the form of a protrusion projecting towards the zone 17.

  • the lateral cam 40 is supported on the lateral flange 12.
  • a cam surface 42, of the lateral cam 40 has variations in curvature which generate a reversible deformation of the lateral portion 22 during its rotation around the lateral axis 34. More precisely, the lateral cam 40 causes bending of the attachment end 41. By this localized bending, a free end 43 of the lateral portion 22 moves away from the medial flange 13 or from the reception area 17. This distance allows easier passage of the shoe to enter the reception area 17, or to exit.
  • the lateral cam 40 and the lateral portion 22 form a part piece.

  • the medial cam 50 is located near an attachment end 51 of the medial portion 23.
  • the medial cam 50 is contained in the plane of the medial flange 13, as seen on Figure 2, when the medial portion 23 is in the reference position. When the portion medial 23 turns towards the base 3, as seen in FIG. 3, the medial cam 50 takes pressing on the medial flange 13.
  • a cam surface 52, of the medial cam 50 has variations in curvature which cause a reversible deformation of the medial portion 23 during its rotation around the medial axis 35. More precisely, the medial cam 50 causes bending of the attachment end 51. By virtue of this localized bending, the free end 25 of the medial portion 23 moves away from the lateral flange 12 or from the reception area 17. Again the distance allows easier passage of the shoe to enter the reception area 17, or to get out.
