- 1. Field of the Invention
- The invention relates to the field of rear support devices provided to withstand forces applied by the rear of the lower leg of a user.
- Each device can be part of an assembly for retaining a boot on a sports apparatus, or can be part of the boot.
- 2. Description Background and Relevant Information
- Devices of the aforementioned type are used in fields such snowboarding, siding, snowshoeing, roller skating, and the like.
- A flexible boot enables a user to perform movements with his/her legs to operate the apparatus. Sometimes, it is useful that the user take support, and exert forces, using the rear of the lower leg.
- For example, in snowboarding, an assembly for retaining a boot generally includes a rear support device, so that the user can press on the running edge located toward of the heels. An abutment is arranged on the device to adjust the inclination of the support device with respect to the assembly. The adjustment is done by adjusting the vertical position of the abutment.
- From an initial setting, the inclination can be modified by the user or by someone else. If the user wishes to return to the initial setting thereafter, he/she must generally try several successive settings
- An object of the invention is to make it possible to return to the initial setting more easily and more quickly.
- To this end, the invention proposes a rear support device that includes a rear support element an abutment, and an immobilizing mechanism that makes it possible to immobilize the abutment with respect to the rear support element, in a position selected along a main direction of the rear support element.
- The device according to the invention further includes a first wedge connected to the rear support element, and a second wedge connected to the abutment, the two wedges being arranged so as to limit the displacement of the abutment in one direction along the main direction, at least one of the two wedges being movable to occupy at least two stable positions wit respect to the piece to which it is connected, such that various portions of a wedge can be in contact with the other wedge,
- For each inclination adjustment that is suitable to the user, the user can place the wedges in contact with one another by displacing the movable wedge(s). The position of the abutment can then be modified without changing the position of the wedges. Thus, another adjustment of the inclination of the rear support element can be used.
- If the user wishes to return to the starting setting, he/she only needs to displace the abutment to put it back in the position for which the wedges contact one another.
- Returning to the suitable setting is easy and quick. It is not necessary to try several successive settings.

- This device includes a
rear support element 13 affixed to theflanges 8, 9 by a means shown in the form of a journal extending along a transverse as W of thedevice 1. - An
abutment 14 of the device limits the rearward rotation of therear support element 13 along the transverse axis W by being supported on thearch 10. This support can be direct, or it can be indirect via apad 15. - The
abutment 14 is immobilized with respect to therear support element 13 in a position selected along a main direction M of therear support element 13. The main direction M extends between alower end 16 and anupper end 17 of therear support element 13. - FIG. 2 shows better how the
abutment 14 is immobilized. - A
rack 18 projects with respect to arear surface 19 of therear support element 13. Anotherrack 20 is arranged on afront surface 21 of theabutment 14, A removable tightening means, shown in the form of ascrew 22, makes it possible to tighten theabutment 14 on therear support element 13, such that theracks racks abutment 14 along the main direction M of therear support element 13 is not the same. - It is thus possible to adjust the rearward inclination of the
rear support element 13. - According to the invention, the rear support device has a memory, i.e., the selected position which the
abutment 14 can occupy along therear support element 13 is memorized. - This memory is provided by a
first wedge 30 connected to therear support element 13, on therear surface 19, on the one hand, and asecond wedge 40 connected to theabutment 14, on the other hand. - The
first wedge 30 is preferably located above therack 18, i.e., closer to theupper end 17 of theelement 13. Thewedge 30 is shown in the form of a stair having free steps, in this case, alower step 31, anintermediate step 32, and anupper step 33. The number of steps could be different. - Each of the
steps - The length of the steps, in the transverse direction of the
rear support element 13, is also preferably constant, It is also comprised between 1 and 4 millimeters. - The
wedge 30 is affixed to therear support element 13 by any means, such as screws or glue, or it can be unitary or integral therewith. As a result, thewedge 30 is fixed with respect to therear support element 13. - The
second wedge 40 of the memory is movable with respect to theabutment 14. - The
second wedge 40 is shown in the form of a bar that includes a firstnarrow section 41 juxtaposed with a secondwider section 42. See, e.g., FIGS. 4 and 6. Thesecond wedge 40 can be displaced transversely with respect to theabutment 14. Preferably, as many transverse positions of thesecond wedge 40 as the number of steps of thefirst wedge 30 are provided. - For each of these positions, the joining end of the second
wide section 42, located toward thenarrow section 41, is opposite one of the steps of thefist wedge 30. - The
second wedge 40 is housed in achannel 43 of theabutment 14, which is substantially oriented along the transverse direction W. - The positioning of the
wedge 40 in the channel is cared out by placing anintroduction end 44 of thewedge 40 at the inlet of thechannel 43, on the side of a firstlateral surface 45 of theabutment 14. - By then pushing the
wedge 40 from thefirst surface 45 toward a secondlateral surface 46, thewedge 40 becomes housed in thechannel 43. - A
first lug 47, located toward theintroduction end 44, enables the insertion of thewedge 40 into thechannel 43 in one direction, and opposes the exit thereof in the opposite direction. - A
second lug 48, located toward adistal end 49 opposite theintroduction end 44, limits the displacement of thewedge 40 in the introduction direction. - As is better understood by means of FIGS.3-6 the
second wedge 40 can occupy three stable positions with respect to theabutment 14. - As seen, for example, in FIG. 3, a
tooth 50 projects with respect to anupper surface 51 of thewedge 40. A first 52, second 53, and third 54 cavity of theabutment 14 are provided to alternately receive thetooth 50 of thewedge 40, Preferably, the distance that separates two successive cavities is constant. - To select the desired cavity, it suffices to push the
introduction end 44 or thedistal end 49 of thewedge 40. - A
slit 55 of thewedge 40 enables a reversible elastic deformation of the latter, so that thetooth 50 can leave one cavity and become housed in another. - It is provided that the distance that separates two successive cavities be substantially equal to the length of a step of the
first wedge 30, and that the form of the pieces be such that when thetooth 50 of thesecond wedge 40 is in a cavity, the joining end of thesecond section 42 is then plumb with a step, - According to the cavity selection shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the
second section 42 of thewedge 40 is provided to come in contact with theupper step 33. - According to the cavity selection shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the
second section 42 of thewedge 40 is provided to come in contact with thelower step 31. - The adjustment of the position of the
abutment 14 with respect to therear support element 13 is done as follows. - The user slightly loosens the
screw 22 to move theabutment 14 away from therear support element 13, such that theracks abutment 14, he/she raises theabutment 14 toward theupper end 17 of therear support element 13. Then, he/she slides thesecond wedge 40 in thechannel 43. This maneuver selects the step of thefirst wedge 30 with which the desiredsecond wedge 40 is to come in contact. Finally, theabutment 14 is lowered until thefirst wedge 30 limits the displacement of theabutment 14. The user then only has to tighten thescrew 22 again to engage theracks - Preferably, the pitch of the teeth of the
racks first wedge 30. But thewedge 30 is arranged such that when the teeth of theracks second wedge 40 and the memorization step. Thus, no force is exerted on the steps. - Only the
racks abutment 14 is biased against the arch 10. - Furthermore, the user can adjust the position of the
abutment 14 in different ways while keeping the same position of thesecond wedge 40. - From a memorized reference position of the
abutment 14, with respect to therear support element 13, the user can test other positions. To this end, it suffices to displace theabutment 14, but without changing the position of thesecond wedge 40, - To return to the memorized position, it suffices to bring the
abutment 14 back to its initial position, which is provided by the relative position of thewedges - In the case of FIGS. 3 and 4, the
abutment 14 is in a raised position. Thesecond wedge 40 is at the level of theupper step 33 of thewedge 30. As a result, the rearward inclination of therear support element 13 is maximum. - Conversely, in the case of FIGS. 5 and 6, the
abutment 14 is in a lower position, Thesecond wedge 40 is at the level of thelower step 31 of thewedge 30. As a result, the rearward inclination of therear support element 13 is minimum. - The invention can be embodied with all of the materials and according to all of the techniques known to a person with ordinary skill in the art. In particular, the
wedges - The invention is not limited to the above example, and includes all the technical equivalents that fall within the scope of the claims that follow.
