Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a snowboard boot, the upper of which closes with the aid of two transverse flaps which overlap with a tongue which extends over the part front of the surfer's foot and lower leg.
  • snowboard boots have this type of upper structure with a lacing closure system, that the boot is obtained in one piece, that is to say with an outer cover provided with comfort padding, or in two pieces, i.e. with an outer shell and a removable comfort liner.
  • the rod is designed to present a relatively large possibility of forward bending as well as some resistance to movement from a bent position. Indeed, the feet of the surfer being in a transverse position relative to the surf, the need to bring the vertical from the center of gravity on the central axis of the surf requires ankle flexion.
  • the uppers of surf boots are generally constructed and dressed with relatively flexible materials, fairly easily deformable, but practically not elastic such as leather, fabrics, fabrics, ... etc., which are possibly coated for sealing or wear protection issues.
  • These materials also allow multiple combinations of assembly and thus very diverse and more or less flexible rod constructions, adapted according to the practice for which surf boots are more specifically intended, for example for practices on all terrains and all snow, or on tracks such as those arranged in the form of a half tube.
  • the surf boots thus constructed have the disadvantage of being relatively difficult to secure to the foot, in particular at the level of their upper using the transverse flaps which cover the tongue.
  • the aforementioned materials such as leather, the fabrics, the fabrics, ... etc., which constitute and / or dress the stem present in their state usual a deliberately rough and slightly slippery surface texture which increases considerably the friction between the tongue and the transverse flaps.
  • the closure of the rod therefore requires exerting a relatively large clamping force on the lacing system to bring the transverse flaps together and thus press the tongue against the foot and / or lower leg of the surfer.
  • This need for tightening energetic is not only compelling but also the source of hand injuries because the lace of the lacing system offers only a very small grip surface while the effort of traction applied to it is important. The same problem arises with shoes in the case of two-piece boots.
  • the present invention aims to facilitate the securing of the surf boot at the foot of the surfer while retaining a rod or liner construction made with materials deformable capable of conforming easily to the foot, such as leather, fabrics, fabrics, ... etc.
  • the invention proposes to considerably reduce the value friction between the flaps and the tongue which ensures the closure of the surf boot or the slipper.
  • the upper of the surf boot is provided, in the area where the transverse flaps overlap the tongue with at least one layer of material with a low coefficient of friction, especially in relation to the materials that dress it.
  • it is a film or a film which is deposited for example by coating, or of a sheet of a material having a slippery surface which is just reported in the overlap area of the flaps on the tongue.
  • This layer of material is also arranged indifferently on the flaps and / or on the tongue.
  • the layer of material extends over the entire area where the cross flaps overlap the tongue or only partially, in particular to obtain a differentiated maintenance for example between the foot and lower leg of the surfer.
  • the same construction can be applied to the liner in the case of a shoe in two pieces, at least one of the flaps, or the tab if there is one, being provided with such a layer to low coefficient of friction.
  • the surf boot 1, shown in Figures 1 and 2 is obtained in one piece, that is to say with an outer shell 2 and comfort padding 3.
  • the latter provides the interface between the outer envelope and the foot-to-lower leg assembly indicated by the reference digital 5 in Figure 2.
  • the outer casing 2 is provided a sole 10 and has a rod 4 which closes with two transverse flaps 4 ' which overlap with a tongue 6 which extends over the front part of the foot and of the surfer's lower leg 5.
  • a lacing closure system 7, comprising a lace 8 and loops 9 arranged on the flaps 4 'of the rod 4, is provided to allow adjustment and the subjugation of the boot 1 on the foot and the lower leg 5 of the surfer.
  • the upper 4 of the boot 1 is advantageously dressed and / or constructed with deformable materials such as leather, fabrics, canvas, etc., which present what is commonly called by the lender, i.e. who can to some extent stretch, extend before the appearance of elastic behavior.
  • the transverse flaps 4 ′ and the tongue 6 are covered with these materials and, according to the invention, at least one of these elements has a layer 11 of material with a low coefficient of friction in the area where they overlap. More specifically, in the present embodiment, the layer 11 of material is arranged-fixed on the transverse flaps 4 ', on the side directed towards the tongue 6. Furthermore, the layer 11 extends only in the upper part 12 of the boot 1 in correspondence with the lower leg of the surfer, that is to say above the lower part 13 which shoes the foot proper.
  • the implementation of the lacing system 7 makes it possible to obtain a maintenance differentiated between the lower part 13 which surrounds the foot and the upper part 12 which surrounds the bottom leg, because the layer 11 promotes the sliding of the flaps 4 'on the tongue 6 only his location. Consequently, the tightening of the upper part 12 is thereby facilitated.
  • the surf boot 31 shown in Figure 3 differs from the previous boot 1 essentially by the fact that it is obtained globally in two main parts, namely a outer shell 32 and a removable comfort liner 33. All other components being identical to those of the surf boot 1 of FIGS. 1 and 2, their description and / or their operation is therefore not resumed.
  • the removable comfort liner 33 can itself be provided with a layer of material 11 having a very low coefficient of friction in its area of closing.
  • the liner 33 can be closed like the surf boot 31, that is to say with a pair of transverse flaps 34 which cover a tongue 36. It can also be simply close with two flaps 34 which overlap each other, that is to say without presence of a tongue 36. In this case, the layer of material 11 with a low coefficient of friction is fixed on only one of the flaps 34 in the overlap area.
  • a layer of material 11 with low coefficient of friction is arranged between the tongue 36 of the liner 33 and the tongue 6 and / or the flaps 4 'of the upper 4 of the surf boot.
  • the removable comfort liner 33 can be provided with a closure zone arranged more or less laterally to the rod.
  • the surf boot 1 or 31 can be made in other ways without for this to depart from the scope of the invention.
  • layer 11 of material with low friction coefficient can be fixed on the tongue 6, on the side directed towards the flaps 4 ', and / or extend over the entire area where there is overlap between said flaps 4 'and said tongue 6.
  • the layer 11 of material with a low coefficient of friction can be applied used only on one of the two transverse flaps 4 '.
  • the layer 11 of material with a low coefficient of friction can be constituted by the deposit of a film on the area where the flaps 4 'overlap the tongue 6 and the realization of this deposit is, for example, obtained by coating, soaking, ... etc.
  • Layer 11 can also be consisting of a more or less narrow sheet or strip, having a sliding surface, which is attached to the flaps 4 'and / or on the tongue 6 in the overlap zone.
  • layer with low coefficient of friction means a layer whose coefficient of friction is lower than that of the surrounding materials so as to facilitate the mutual sliding of said materials.
