Abstract

A shoe has an upper made of resiliently flexible materials, a central rotary closure arranged on a lateral side of the upper in an area in which the lateral malleolus of a wearer's foot is received, at least one tightening element connected to the central rotary closure, the at least one tightening element having a front tightening section which extends forwardly from the central rotary closure and a rear tightening section which extends rearwardly from the central rotary closure, and front and rear pull straps. The front pull strap is coupled to the front tightening section and runs obliquely forward therefrom over an instep area of the upper to an end thereof which is fastened to the upper. The rear tightening section is coupled with the rear pull strap, and the rear pull strap runs rearwardly therefrom, around a heel portion of the upper to a medial side of the shoe where, preferably, it passes over a guide element on the upper and then extends obliquely forward therefrom over the instep area of the upper to an end thereof which is fastened at the lateral side of the shoe. By this construction, the central rotary closure is able to close the shoe by shortening the tightening element and open the shoe by increasing the free length of the tightening element by applying and releasing tension on the pull straps.

Description

Schuh mit einem Zentraldrehverschluß Shoe with a central twist lock
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Schuh mit einem Zentraldrehverschluß gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a shoe with a central rotary fastener according to the preamble of claim 1.
Ein derartiger Schuh ist beispielsweise aus dem DE-U- 89 12 788 oder aus dem DE-U- 90 05 469 bekannt. Bei den dort beschriebenen Schuhen ist der Zentraldrehverschluß auf einem Ristschild angebracht, an dem seitliche Schließlappen schwenkbeweglich angeformt sind. Das mit dem Zentraldrehverschluß spannbare Spannelement verläuft von diesem Ristschild aus abwechselnd über Umlenkelemente der Schließlappen und des Ristschildes.Such a shoe is known for example from DE-U-89 12 788 or from DE-U-90 05 469. In the shoes described there, the central rotary lock is attached to a riser plate on which side locking tabs are formed so as to be pivotable. The tensioning element, which can be tensioned with the central rotary lock, runs alternately from this riser plate via deflecting elements of the locking tabs and the riser plate.
Weiterhin ist es aus dem DE-U- 90 16 325 bekannt, die Schließlappen getrennt vom Ristschild anzuordnen. Dabei sind die Umlenkelemente an seitlichen, über den Schuhschaft verlaufenden Spannbändern angebracht und diese in entsprechende Aussparungen der Schließlappen einsetzbar.Furthermore, it is known from DE-U-90 16 325 to arrange the locking tabs separately from the riser plate. The deflection elements are attached to lateral tensioning straps running over the shoe upper and these can be inserted into corresponding recesses in the closing flaps.
Derartige bekannte Schuhe mit einem Zentraldrehverschluß können schnell an- und ausgezogen werden. Trotzdem ist die Schließwirkung einfach, schnell und individuell einstellbar. Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung soll die Aufgabe gelöst werden, Schuhe der vorgenannten Art so auszugestalten, daß bei Belastung des Ristes, beispielsweise durch das Auf reffen eines Balles oder dgl., ein unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen des Schuhes vermieden wird. Außerdem soll die Herstellung und Montage der Schließeinrichtung in einfacher Weise möglich sein.Such known shoes with a central rotary lock can be quickly put on and taken off. Nevertheless, the closing effect is simple, quick and individually adjustable. With the present invention, the object is to be designed to design shoes of the aforementioned type so that when the instep is loaded, for example by reefing on a ball or the like, an unintentional opening of the shoe is avoided. In addition, the manufacture and assembly of the locking device should be possible in a simple manner.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale.This object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.
Durch die Anordnung des Zentraldrehverschlusses außerhalb der Ristbelastungszone im Umgebungsbereich des Außenknöchels und durch die Schließwirkung des Spannelements vom Zentraldrehverschluß aus einerseits nach hinten um die Ferse herum nach vorn über den Rist bis wiederum zur Schuhaußenseite, sowie andererseits nach vorn über den Rist zur gegenüberliegenden Schuhinnenseite, wird eine günstige und fein justierbare Schließwirkung erzielt. Dadurch wird gleichzeitig ein ungewolltes Öffnen bei ansonsten möglicher Belastung des Zentraldrehverschlusses in Öffnungsrichtung vermieden.The arrangement of the central twist lock outside of the instep zone in the area surrounding the outer ankle and the closing action of the tensioning element from the central twist lock on the one hand to the rear around the heel to the front over the instep to the outside of the shoe, and on the other hand to the front over the instep to the opposite side of the shoe achieved a cheap and finely adjustable closing effect. This also prevents unwanted opening with an otherwise possible load on the central rotary lock in the opening direction.
Weitere vorteilhafte Einzelheiten der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben und werden nachfolgend anhand eines in der Zeichnung veranschaulichten Ausführungsbeispiels näher beschrieben. Es zeigen:Further advantageous details of the invention are specified in the subclaims and are described in more detail below with reference to an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the drawing. Show it:
Fig. 1 eine Ansicht auf die Außenseite eines Schuhes gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung, Fig. 2 eine Ansicht auf die Schuhinnenseite diesesFig. 1 is a view of the outside of a shoe according to the present invention, Fig. 2 is a view of the inside of the shoe
Schuhes und Fig. 3 eine Draufsicht auf den Schuh gemäß der Fig. 1 In den Fig. 1 bis 3 ist mit 1 ein Schuh, insbesondere ein Sport- oder Freizeitschuh, bezeichnet. Er besitzt an seiner Schuhaußenseite 2, d.h. auf der Seite des Außenknöchels, im Umgebungsbereich des Außenknöchels einen Zentraldrehver¬ schluß 3. Dieser kann bekannter Bauart entsprechen und eine Schnellentrastung aufweisen. Er ist beispielsweise unmittelbar auf dem Schaftmaterial des Schaftes 4 des Schuhes 1 angebracht. Vorzugsweise ist er, wie beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1, auf einer besonderen Trägerplatte 5 befestigt, die insbesondere mit ihrem unteren Rand bzw. ihrer unteren Kante 6 am Schuh 1 fixiert, beispielsweise dort angenäht ist.3 and a plan view of the shoe according to FIG. 1 1 to 3, 1 denotes a shoe, in particular a sports or leisure shoe. It has a central rotary lock 3 on the outside of its shoe 2, ie on the side of the outer ankle, in the area surrounding the outer ankle, which can correspond to a known type and have a quick release. For example, it is attached directly to the upper material of the upper 4 of the shoe 1. As in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, it is preferably fastened on a special carrier plate 5, which is fixed, in particular with its lower edge or lower edge 6, to the shoe 1, for example sewn there.
Mit dem Zentraldrehverschluß 3 ist in an sich bekannter Weise ein Spannelement 7, beispielsweise ein Kunststoff¬ oder Drahtseil, kraftschlüssig gekuppelt und durch Drehen zum Schließen des Schuhes verkürzbar und zum Öffnen verlängerbar. Die Schnellentrastung kann durch Zug oder Druck erfolgen.With the central rotary lock 3, a tensioning element 7, for example a plastic or wire rope, is non-positively coupled in a manner known per se and can be shortened by turning to close the shoe and extended to open it. The quick release can be done by pulling or pushing.
Das Spannelement 7 ist so geführt, daß ein vorderer Spannab¬ schnitt 8 und ein hinterer Spannabschnitt 9 gebildet wird. Insbesondere verlaufen die Spannabschnitte 8, 9 in Form von Schlaufen 8' , 9* .The tensioning element 7 is guided such that a front tensioning section 8 and a rear tensioning section 9 are formed. In particular, the tensioning sections 8, 9 run in the form of loops 8 ', 9 * .
Die Spannabschnitte 8, 9 sind entweder direkt oder vorzugsweise über Kupplungsglieder 10 bzw. 11 mit einem Zugband 12 bzw. 13 gekuppelt oder verbunden. Hierzu besitzen die Kupplungsglieder 10, 11 jeweils eine Umlenkführung in Form eines Umlenkelements 14, beispielsweise in Form einer Kreis- oder Ellipsenbahn oder in Form einer ansonsten in geeigneter Weise verlaufenden Führungsbahn, beispielsweise einer Führungsnut 15, in der oder um die die Spannabschnitte 8 bzw. 9 geführt sind. Durch Drehen des Zentraldrehver¬ schlusses 3 und Verkürzen des Spannelements 7 können die Kupplungsglieder 10, 11 zum Zentraldrehverschluß 3 hingezogen und beim Öffnungsvorgang von diesem wegbewegt werden.The clamping sections 8, 9 are either directly or preferably coupled or connected via a coupling members 10 or 11 to a tension band 12 or 13. For this purpose, the coupling members 10, 11 each have a deflection guide in the form of a deflection element 14, for example in the form of a circular or elliptical path or in the form of an otherwise suitably running guide path, for example a guide groove 15, in or around which the clamping sections 8 and 9 are performed. By rotating the central rotary lock 3 and shortening the tensioning element 7, the coupling members 10, 11 can be pulled towards the central rotary lock 3 and moved away from it during the opening process.
Das am vorderen Kupplungsglied 10 befestigte oder um einen Umlenksteg 16 desselben geführte Zugband 12 ist nach vorn über den Rist 17 in Richtung zur Schuhinnenseite, d.h. zur Seite des Innenknöchels, geführt und dort mit seinem Ende 19 (Fig. 3) befestigt.The tension band 12 fastened to the front coupling member 10 or guided around a deflection web 16 thereof is forward over the instep 17 towards the inside of the shoe, i.e. to the side of the inner ankle, guided and fastened there with its end 19 (Fig. 3).
Bei Verwendung des Umlenksteges 16 verläuft das Zugband 12 nach der Umlenkung zunächst leicht nach vorn oben unmittelbar über den Rist 17 und nach dem Überqueren des Ristes 17 bzw. des Spanns nach hinten unten in den Bereich des Fußgelenks oder des Innenknöchels. Dort ist es am Schaft 4, vorzugsweise relativ nahe der Sohle 20 oder unmittelbar an der Sohle 20 befestigt.When the deflection web 16 is used, the tension band 12 initially runs slightly upwards directly above the instep 17 after the deflection and after crossing the instep 17 or the instep backwards down into the region of the ankle or inner ankle. There it is attached to the shaft 4, preferably relatively close to the sole 20 or directly to the sole 20.
Das hintere Kupplungsglied 11 besitzt bevorzugt ebenfalls einen Umlenksteg 16, an dem das Zugband 13 befestigt ist. Das Zugband 13 verläuft nach hinten um die Ferse 21 herum an der Schuhinnenseite 18 entlang nach vorn über den Rist 17 in Richtung zur Schuhaußenseite 2, wo es befestigt ist. Dabei können sich die beiden Zugbänder 12 und 13 über dem Rist 17 kreuzen.The rear coupling member 11 preferably also has a deflection web 16 to which the drawstring 13 is attached. The tension band 13 runs backwards around the heel 21 along the inside of the shoe 18 and forwards over the instep 17 towards the outside 2 of the shoe, where it is fastened. The two drawstrings 12 and 13 can cross over the instep 17.
Um eine gute Schließwirkung zu erreichen, ist das Zugband 13 außerdem bevorzugt von der Ferse 21 aus zunächst über eine zwischen der Fußwölbung und dem Innenknöchel, insbesondere im Bereich vor dem Innenknöchel, vorgesehene Umlenkung 22 geführt. Vorzugsweise ist die Umlenkung 22 im Bereich unterhalb der Unterkante des Innenknöchels am Schaft 4 oder an der Sohle 20 vorgesehen. Dadurch verläuft das Zugband 13 von der Ferse 21 aus zunächst nach vorn unten und nach Umlenkung nach vorn oben über den Rist 17. Hierdurch wird eine gute Halterung des Fußes im Schuh 1 gewährleistet.In order to achieve a good closing effect, the tension band 13 is also preferably guided from the heel 21 initially via a deflection 22 provided between the arch of the foot and the inner ankle, in particular in the area in front of the inner ankle. The deflection 22 is preferably provided in the region below the lower edge of the inner ankle on the shaft 4 or on the sole 20. The drawstring 13 thereby runs from the heel 21 first downwards and after deflection upwards over the instep 17. This ensures that the foot is held well in the shoe 1.
Mit Vorteil ist die Umlenkung 22 stift- oder stabförmig ausgebildet. Vorzugsweise verläuft sie waagrecht oder in einem kleinen Winkel zur Waagrechten geneigt. Vorteilhaft ist die Umlenkung 22 als Ring oder insbesondere als langgestrecktes Kettenglied ausgebildet, dessen einer Längs¬ abschnitt 23 am Schuh 1, beispielsweise am Schaft 4 oder an der Sohle 20, befestigt ist. Um den anderen Längsabschnitt 24 ist das Zugband 13 herumgeführt.The deflection 22 is advantageously pin-shaped or rod-shaped. It is preferably horizontal or inclined at a small angle to the horizontal. The deflection 22 is advantageously designed as a ring or in particular as an elongated chain link, one longitudinal section 23 of which is fastened to the shoe 1, for example to the shaft 4 or to the sole 20. The drawstring 13 is guided around the other longitudinal section 24.
Zur Führung des Spannelements 7 kann die Trägerplatte 5 mit Führungen 25, beispielsweise mit Nuten, versehen sein. Die Führungen können auch, zumindest teilweise, geschlossen, also röhren- oder tunnelförmig, ausgeführt sein. To guide the tensioning element 7, the carrier plate 5 can be provided with guides 25, for example with grooves. The guides can also, at least partially, be closed, that is to say tubular or tunnel-shaped.
