Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a closing device for footwear in general such as for example ski boots, snowboarding boots, trekking boots or suchlike, in which an upper, or shell, or casing, is able to surround the foot and comprises two front lateral parts which can be selectively brought closer together.
  • This closing device is able to determine the reciprocal bringing closer together of the two lateral parts of the casing and hence the closing of the article of footwear.
  • the closing device is provided with a command element which allows the user to close or open the article of footwear by acting simultaneously on at least two zones of the article of footwear itself, advantageously the tarsal and metatarsal zone of the foot.
  • boots have been made which have a casing provided with a single rear aperture to insert the foot, and wherein the boot is closed by means of a rear command lever which brings the rear part of the boot near to the heel of the foot and draws towards the inside of the casing a front tongue able to rest with pressure on the ankle and the back of the foot.
  • This solution does not allow a personalized adjustment of the closing tension, entails physical problems such as blisters and numbness, and also the risk of accidents or suchlike.
  • the purpose of the invention is to achieve an article of footwear such as a ski boot, snowboarding boot, trekking boot or suchlike, which has a limited number of closing mechanisms in order to reduce production costs and to facilitate the opening and closing of the article of footwear itself, and at the same time to guarantee a personalized adjustment of the closing tension.
  • the closing device which can be applied on any article of footwear, advantageously on boots, comprises a first closing mechanism able to reciprocally close two front lateral parts of the upper, or casing, of the article of footwear in correspondence with a first zone, for example the tarsal zone, of the foot, and a second closing mechanism able to close these two parts of the casing in correspondence with a second zone, for example the metatarsal zone, of the foot.
  • the second closing mechanism is connected to the first closing mechanism so that a single command element associated with the first closing mechanism commands the simultaneous opening/closing action both of the first and also of the second closing mechanism.
  • the first closing mechanism comprises a command element, for example with a lever, able to be attached to one of the two front lateral parts of the upper and to cooperate with a closing element, such as for example a toothed belt attached to the other part to be brought closer together.
  • the second closing mechanism comprises a cable having one end attached to the upper of the article of footwear and the other end with which the second positioning element is solid.
  • the cable is arranged in a zigzag between the two front lateral parts of the upper, so that, by acting on the command element, the cable is tautened and restricts the amplitude of the zigzag, bringing the two front lateral parts closer together.
  • the invention also provides attachment means to achieve the connection between the first and second closing means.
  • the attachment means comprise a first positioning element solid with the first closing mechanism and able to cooperate in a plurality of attachment positions with a mating second positioning element solid with the second closing mechanism.
  • the first positioning element comprises a buckle on which a plate provided with an eccentric toothing is mounted rotatable
  • the second positioning element comprises a band inserted into said buckle and connected to the free end of the cable.
  • the closing device therefore allows to close, with a single command element, both the first and the second closing mechanism, thus simplifying the closure of the article of footwear. Moreover, the cooperation between the first and second positioning element allows the user to select the closing tension of the second closing mechanism in a personalized manner.
  • a closing device 10 for boots 11, for example, as shown, a ski boot comprises a first closing mechanism 13 arranged in correspondence with a tarsal zone of the foot, and a second closing mechanism 20 arranged in a metatarsal zone of the foot, joined together by attachment means 30.
  • the boot 11 consists of a shell, or casing 12, able to contain the user's foot and comprising two front lateral parts 12a and 12b which can be brought closer together so as to selectively reduce the transverse section of the casing 12, so that the foot is held inside.
  • the boot 11 also comprises, not shown here, other closing mechanisms similar to the first 13 and able to close it in correspondence with a tibial zone of the foot.
  • the first closing mechanism 13 comprises a plastic belt 15 attached to the part 12b, which in fig. 1 is on the right, and a command element, or command lever 16, attached to the part 12a, and able to cooperate with the belt 15.
  • the belt 15 has a toothed front terminal part 17, which is able to cooperate with a specular toothing made in the inner part of the command lever 16, and a rear terminal part 18 consisting of a tubular textile material.
  • the command lever 16 allows the inner specular toothing to pass over the toothed part 17 of the belt 15 by a few millimeters lengthwise, then to return it to be gripping on the toothed part 17, thus allowing the user to easily pull the belt and to bring the two parts 12a and 12b reciprocally near each other in correspondence with the metatarsal zone of the foot, clamping them at a desired closing tension.
  • the second closing mechanism 20 comprises a steel wire 21 attached with one end to the casing 12 by means of a suitable attachment element 23 and arranged in a zigzag between the two front lateral parts 12a and 12b.
  • Two washers, respectively 24 and 25, are able to associate the wire 21 to the respective parts 12a and 12b to be brought closer together.
  • the wire 21 is also made to wind around a return pin 26 (fig. 3) which coincides with the point where the belt 15 is attached to the part 12b, made to pass partly inside the terminal part 18 and then attached to the attachment means 30.
  • the attachment means 30 (fig. 2) comprise a first positioning element 31 associated with the belt 15 and a second positioning element 32, consisting of a band 33 solid with the free end of the steel wire 21.
  • the first positioning element 31 comprises a buckle 34 associated with the central part of the belt 15 and having a transverse stirrup 35 equipped with a knurled part towards the inside of the buckle 34, and a plate 36 hinged on the buckle 34, and provided with an eccentric toothing 37 facing the knurling of the stirrup 35.
  • the band 33 is able to be arranged between the eccentric toothing 37 and the stirrup 35.
  • the plate 36 can be selectively rotated between an open position, wherein the eccentric toothing 37 is distant from the stirrup 35 and allows the band 33 to slide inside the buckle 34, and a closed position wherein the eccentric toothing 37 is near the stirrup 35 and prevents the band 33 from sliding.
  • the band 33 also comprises a metal ring 38 able to facilitate the user's grip thereon and to ensure that the band 33 itself does not come out of the buckle 34.
  • the closing device 10 as described heretofore is used as follows.
  • the band 33 is drawn, making it slide on the stirrup 35, until a closing tension of the second closing mechanism 20 is reached according to the structure of the user's foot and the degree of tension desired, and then the plate 36 is taken to its closed position, so that the eccentric toothing 37 thrusts the band 33 against the knurling of the stirrup 35, thus preventing the band 33 from sliding.
  • Drawing the band 33 causes the belt 15 to retreat by a few millimeters, which entails a slight curling of the rear terminal part 18 of the belt 15.
  • the closure by means of the command lever 16 causes the belt 15 to move forwards, which causes the wire 21 to be drawn and, acting on the washers 24 and 25, brings the two parts 12a and 12b into reciprocal approaching in the metatarsal zone of the foot.
  • the first positioning element can comprise three ridges 43, 44 and 45, on each of which a respective seating 46, 47 and 48 is made, each able to define, in cooperation with an insert 42 associated with the terminal part of the wire 21, respective closing positions with different tensions, that is to say, a position of tight closure, average closure and normal closure.
  • a protection element 49 is hinged on the ridge 45, able to prevent, during the normal use of the boot 11, the insert 42 from accidentally becoming detached from the seating 46, 47, or 48 with which it has been selectively coupled.
  • Elastic means are also associated with the protection element 49, such as for example a spring, not shown in the drawings, able to keep it normally in a closed position wherein it completely hides the ridges 43, 44 and 45.
