Definitions

• Roller skates comprising means for locking the rollers
• the present invention relates to roller skates comprising means for locking the rollers.
• roller skates that is to say comprising a frame carrying two axles at the end of each of which are mounted two idle rollers, are generally not provided with a device for locking the rollers.
• roller skates tending to become more and more a practical means of displacement, it also becomes increasingly necessary for the power user when this is required by certain regulations or for safety reasons, for example • in public transport, in stores, to climb or descend stairs, etc., to be able to temporarily replace the movement by rolling with a movement "while walking”.
• the skater is forced to lean on the stop (stop) mounted generally in front of skates of the current type, which is neither rational nor dresser.
• the object of this invention consists in providing a roller skate comprising means which are removable or not for blocking the rollers in such a way that the user can move like a pedestrian whenever he wishes.
• roller skate comprising means for blocking at least one caster, object of this invention, which is characterized by the fact
• these blocking means comprise a shoe mounted cou ⁇ smoothing on a support integral with the skate frame and control means moving said shoe between a blocking position for which it is in contact with the caster and an unlocking position for which it is not in contact with it.
• Figures 1 and 2 are side views of a wheel respectively rear and front of the pad provided with the locking means.
• FIGS. 3A and 3B are side views, in the unlocking and locking position respectively, of the locking means of a caster.
• Figure 4 ' is a top view of the locking means according to Figure 3A.
• Figure 5 is a view de. Singer a roller skate whose four rollers are provided with locking means.
• FIGS. 1 and 2 there is shown a rear wheel, the front wheel 1, respectively, of a shoe, each mounted idly on an axle 2.2 ′ itself carried by an arm 3.3 * secured of the frame 4 and cooperating with a damping member 5.5 ′ allowing oscillation movements of the axle.
• the locking means of the caster 1 comprise a support plate 6 fixed on the axle 2 so as to be approximately perpendicular to the plane of the upper por ⁇ tion of the frame intended to receive a shoe.
• On this support plate 6 is slidably mounted a shoe 7 whose concave surface 7 'has the same radius of curvature as the tread of the caster with which it is intended to come into contact.
• this shoe 7 is chosen so that in the locking position, its concave surface 8 "adheres" to the convex surface of the caster 1.
• this shoe 7 is made of a harder plastic than that with which the caster is made.
• the shoe can be of any material and have a removable lining or not of a material suitable for blocking.
• the blocking means preferably comprise a pair of shoes for each axle.
• the eccentric axis 8 extends transversely, parallel to the axle 2, and serves as a control means for the shoe 13 slidably mounted on a support plate 14 fixed on the other end of the axle 2 It is therefore not necessary for this second shoe 13 to be provided with a control lever, since the eccentric axis 8 transmits the rotational movement produced by the lever 10 to the pivot pivoted in the second shoe 13, in order to make slide this second shoe 13 between the unlocking and blocking position, simultaneously with the first shoe 7.
• the rear rollers of the shoe can be provided with locking means identical to those described
• the front caliper 16 carrying a propulsion wheel 18, the rotation of which is free in rolling forward and locked in the opposite direction, as well as the rear caliper 17 carrying a braking wheel 19, are described in detail in the patent.
• the sliding movement of the blocking shoe of the caster can be obtained by devices other than that described by way of example and comprising an eccentric.
