Definitions

  • the invention relates to a twist lock for a sports shoe, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a twist lock of the type required in the preamble of claim 1 is known from EP-A-393 380.
  • the flaps of a sports shoe can be contracted and released by changing the effective length of a traction cable arrangement by a rotary movement of a rotary actuating device in one direction or the other.
  • a locking blade device is arranged between the rotary actuation device and the sheave, which contains an intermediate element which can be rotated while maintaining an empty travel, a pawl carried by this intermediate element and a toothed ring incorporated in a housing cover, whereby the sheave is rotated by the rotary actuating device, preferably with the interposition of a planetary gear mechanism, the sun gear of which has a downwardly extending, pivot-like axial extension which forms a central bearing journal for the sheave.
  • the rotary actuating device can preferably be designed as a cap-shaped rotary handle and can be screwed to a journal end of the sun gear which extends axially upward through a housing cover, the lateral peripheral wall of the rotary handle largely covering the housing and its cover at the bottom.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a rotary closure in the preamble of claim 1 while maintaining the advantages of the known embodiment described above in such a way that with a relatively simple structural design, a rotary movement of the pulley beyond two turns is made possible.
  • the stop device is essentially formed by two flat stop arms which are mounted coaxially with respect to one another about the central housing axis and are arranged above one another.
  • the upper first stop arm is located directly below the sheave, the driving projection of which is designed and arranged such that after the first rotation of the sheave and when this rotational movement continues, it only comes into engagement with the first stop arm and the sheave together with this first stop arm then one can make a second turn.
  • the lower second stop arm is in driving connection with the first stop arm via a driving cam in such a way that this second stop arm only becomes effective after a second rotation of the rope sheave and upon a further continuation of this rotary movement.
  • the stationary housing stop is arranged in the path of movement of the second stop arm at a point which is shortly before the completion of a complete revolution of this second stop arm.
  • the rope sheave can carry out a maximum of approximately three revolutions, for example approximately 2 3/4 revolutions, before a further rotary movement is prevented or limited by the stationary housing stop (the latter occurs to damage a pull rope by to rule out overstretching).
  • the twist lock according to the invention can be attached or fastened on the shaft of any suitable sports shoe, so that its traction cable arrangement can be connected in a favorable manner to locking flaps or other parts of the sports shoe which can be contracted, in order thereby to be able to adapt the shoe precisely to the foot of a user.
  • this rotary closure according to the invention can be designed in the same way as in EP-A-393 380 described at the outset, so that in the drawing only the lower one, which is relevant for explaining the present invention Part of this twist lock is illustrated, while the upper part with pawl device, rotary actuating device, cover, etc. is of the same construction as the aforementioned known embodiment, to which express reference is made.
  • the lower part of the twist lock has an approximately shell-shaped, essentially circular housing 1, which can be fastened in a suitable manner to a sports shoe, not shown, on its shaft, for example with the aid of lateral fastening tabs 2.
  • this housing 1 there is one central housing axis 1 a rotatably operable rope pulley 3 rotatably mounted, on which a pull rope arrangement 4 - depending on the rotary movement - can be wound or unwound, in order thereby to be able to change the effective length of the rope pull arrangement 4 in the desired manner.
  • two traction cable ends 4a, 4b are fastened diametrically opposite to the pulley 3, which ends may belong to a single traction cable or to two traction cables.
  • the rope sheave 3 is accommodated in the housing 1 in such a way that the outer peripheral edge of its upper sheave part 3a is guided in a kind of annular groove 1b on the upper edge of the housing.
  • the pulley 3 has a central bore 3b into which a downwardly extending, trunnion-like axial extension of a sun gear (not shown in more detail) of a planetary gear belonging to the rotary actuation device extends, this trunnion-like extension forming a central bearing journal for the pulley 3.
  • a stop device is rotatably mounted in the housing 1, which is essentially coaxial with one another by two central housing axis 1a rotatably mounted, superimposed flat stop arms, namely an upper first stop arm 5 and a lower second stop arm 6 is formed.
  • the upper first stop arm 5 has a central bearing section 5a and a circular sector-shaped outer stop section 5b adjoining it radially outward, and in approximately the same way the lower second stop arm 6 also has a central bearing section 6a and a circular sector-shaped adjoining it radially outward outer stop section 6b.
  • an upwardly projecting driving cam 7 is firmly attached, the height of which is at most as large as the material thickness of the upper stop arm 5, which can be seen in FIG. 1 (left half).
  • a driving projection 8 is fixedly attached, which is located radially within the driving cam 7 and is at most as high as the material thickness of the first stop arm 5.
  • a stationary stop 9 is also provided on the housing base 1c and in the peripheral edge region, which serves to limit the rotational movement of the lower second stop arm 6 and thus - as will be explained in more detail - also the pulley 3 in both directions of rotation.
  • this housing stop 9 extends from the housing base 1c upwards by an amount that is at most as large as the material thickness of the lower second stop arm 6.
  • the central bearing section 6a of the second stop arm 6 has an axially downwardly extending, circular bearing projection 10, which is mounted and guided in a sliding manner in a central bearing bore 11 in the housing base 1c. At least the remaining part of the central bearing section 6a of this second stop arm 6, but preferably also at least the largest part of the outer stop section 6b, is slidably supported on the housing base 1c.
  • the Central bearing section 6a of the second stop arm 6 also has a bearing pin 12 which extends coaxially to the bearing extension 10 and which fits into a central bearing bore 5a 'in the bearing section 5a of the upper first stop arm 5, so that for this bearing section 5a and thus also for the whole upper first stop arm 5 in a very simple manner, a reliable pivot bearing and guidance is created.
  • the twist lock can be made at least partially from a suitable, preferably castable and machinable plastic material. It is furthermore particularly advantageous with regard to the relatively simple and inexpensive production if at least the housing 1, the rope pulley 3 and the stop arms 5, 6 are made of such plastic material.
  • FIGS. 2 to 5 A winding process of the pull cable arrangement 4 or the pull cable ends 4a and 4b on the sheave 3 is explained below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5, it being emphasized again that these FIGS. 2 to 5 horizontal sectional views corresponding to the section line II-II in FIG. 1 show from below.
  • FIG. 2 The zero position is illustrated in FIG. 2, in which the pull rope arrangement 4 is completely unwound from the sheave.
  • the outer stop section 6b rests on one side of the stationary housing stop 9, while on one side of the driving cam 7 the outer stop section 5b of the upper first stop arm 5 rests on one side again the driving projection 8 of the sheave is present.
  • the traction cable arrangement 4 or its traction cable ends 4a and 4b are now to be wound onto the pulley 3, then the pulley 3 is rotated in the direction of arrow 13 by means of the rotary actuating device explained at the beginning.
