Abstract

The skate consists of a frame with a lower lengthwise member carrying the rollers (3) and an upper plate to which the boot is attached. It also has a ventilation channel beneath the boot, with air entering through an intake (11a) at its forward end and passing into the boot through apertures (12) in the sole. The ventilation channel is made from a plastics material by blow extrusion, and is divided into sections by one or more lengthwise ribs. It has inner deflectors to guide the air flow towards the apertures.

Description

La présente invention concerne un patin du type à roues, et notamment à roues en ligne, comprenant d'une part un châssis dont une partie inférieure longitudinale porte lesdites roues et d'autre part une chaussure formée par une tige surmontant une semelle destinée à être fixée sur une platine supérieure du châssis, le volume de ladite tige et/ou semelle étant en communication avec l'extérieur de façon à obtenir sa ventilation interne par amenée d'air.The present invention relates to a skate of the wheel type, and in particular to in-line wheels, comprising on the one hand a chassis of which a longitudinal lower part carries said wheels and on the other hand a shoe formed by a rod surmounting a sole intended to be fixed to an upper plate of the chassis, the volume of said rod and / or sole being in communication with the outside so as to obtain its internal ventilation by air intake.

Ce type de patin est destiné à l'entraînement des patineurs sur glace hors patinoire, mais également à tous sportifs désireux d'entretenir ou de perfectionner sur un sol dur goudronné, cimenté, etc. les techniques utilisées dans des sports de glisse tels que le ski de piste, le ski de fond, le patin à glace, etc.This type of skate is intended for the training of skaters on ice outside the ice rink, but also for all athletes wishing to maintain or improve on hard paved, cemented ground, etc. techniques used in board sports such as downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, ice skating, etc.

C'est ainsi que la pratique de ce sport comprend une phase motrice ou propulsive en faisant diverger le patin vers l'extérieur et en prenant un appui latéral sur les roues ainsi inclinées, à la manière d'une prise de carre, puis une phase de glisse s'effectuant en repositionnant les roues perpendiculairement par rapport au sol.Thus the practice of this sport includes a driving or propulsive phase by making the skate diverge outwards and taking lateral support on the wheels thus inclined, in the manner of an edge grip, then a phase sliding by repositioning the wheels perpendicularly to the ground.

Une chaussure de ce type est connue par le brevet US N° 5 171 033. Celui-ci décrit une chaussure présentant la particularité d'être réalisée à partir d'une coque rigide comportant une pluralité d'ouvertures, de ventilation débouchant dans le volume interne de la coque. Un chausson est disposé librement dans cette coque afin que les mouvements du pied provoquent une ventilation interne par coopération entre une action de pompage fournie par le mouvement du chausson à l'intérieur de la coque et lesdites ouvertures de la coque.A shoe of this type is known from US Patent No. 5,171,033. This describes a shoe having the particularity of being made from a rigid shell comprising a plurality of openings, of ventilation opening into the volume internal of the hull. A slipper is freely placed in this shell so that the movements of the foot cause internal ventilation by cooperation between a pumping action provided by the movement of the slipper inside the shell and said openings of the shell.

Si un tel concept est susceptible de favoriser l'aération du pied, en revanche il conserve à la chaussure toute sa rigidité, car la coque, même si elle reçoit un chausson souple, constitue une structure enveloppante ferme du pied.If such a concept is likely to favor the ventilation of the foot, on the other hand it retains to the shoe all its rigidity, because the shell, even if it receives a flexible liner, constitutes a firm enveloping structure of the foot.

Par ailleurs, l'efficacité de l'action de pompage exercée par le chausson est assez douteuse du fait que dans une chaussure de ce type on cherche justement à éviter tout mouvement relatif du pied générateur d'inconfort (frottement, ampoule) et de manque de précision.Furthermore, the effectiveness of the pumping action exerted by the liner is quite doubtful because in a shoe of this type it is precisely sought to avoid any relative movement of the foot generating discomfort (friction, blister) and lack precision.

On recherche également dans un tel produit une structure de chaussure souple et légère assurant une bonne tenue du pied, un confort d'utilisation, et une moindre fatigue.We also look in such a product for a flexible and light shoe structure ensuring good foot support, comfort of use, and less fatigue.

Le brevet américain n° 5 401 039 enseigne de ventiler le volume interne de la coque en amenant de l'air capté à l'extérieur par des trous ménagés sur le plan inférieur de la semelle et cela par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit à l'extrémité duquel se trouve une bouche d'entrée d'air et à l'intérieur duquel est placé une turbine solidaire d'une des roues du patin afin d'assurer son entraînement en rotation.American patent n ° 5,401,039 teaches to ventilate the internal volume of the shell by bringing air collected outside by holes made in the lower plane of the sole and this by means of a conduit to the end of which is an air inlet mouth and inside which is placed a turbine secured to one of the wheels of the skate in order to ensure its drive in rotation.

Il s'agit là d'une conception compliquée due au fait qu'elle conduit à la mise en oeuvre de pièces en mouvement. De plus, l'air est introduit dans la coque librement ce qui procure une aération diffuse ne tenant pas compte du fait qu'un pied en mouvement comporte des points de sudation bien particulier vers lesquels il faut diriger préférentiellement l'air de ventilation.This is a complicated concept due to the fact that it leads to the use of moving parts. In addition, the air is freely introduced into the shell which provides diffuse ventilation, not taking into account the fact that a moving foot has very specific sweat points towards which it is preferable to direct the ventilation air.

La présente invention a pour objectif de remédier aux inconvénients précités et d'atteindre les résultats souhaités, venant d'être évoqués. Le but de la présente invention est donc de fournir un patin du type à roues en ligne amélioré, et notamment qui permette une bonne ventilation du pied et concilie tenue de pied, confort et légèreté.The present invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks and achieve the desired results, which have just been mentioned. The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a skate of the improved in-line wheel type, and in particular which allows good ventilation of the foot and combines foot holding, comfort and lightness.

A cet effet, elle concerne un patin du type à roues en ligne comprenant, d'une part, un châssis dont une partie inférieure longitudinale porte lesdites roues, et d'autre part, une chaussure formée par une tige surmontant une semelle destinée à être fixée sur une platine supérieure du châssis, le volume de ladite tige et/ou semelle étant en communication avec l'extérieur de façon à obtenir sa ventilation interne par amenée d'air, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte des moyens de canalisation de l'air interposés entre une zone de captage d'air externe et le volume interne de la coque, ces moyens de canalisation ayant un volume indéformable.To this end, it relates to a shoe of the in-line wheel type comprising, on the one hand, a chassis of which a longitudinal lower part carries said wheels, and on the other hand, a shoe formed by a rod surmounting a sole intended to be fixed to an upper plate of the chassis, the volume of said rod and / or sole being in communication with the outside so as to obtain its internal ventilation by air intake, characterized in that it comprises means for channeling the air interposed between an external air capture zone and the internal volume of the hull, these channeling means having a non-deformable volume.

Avantageusement, ces moyens de canalisation de l'air sont constitués par une chambre de ventilation de volume indéformable ménagée sous un appui plantaire de la chaussure et en communication avec le volume interne de la tige.Advantageously, these air channeling means consist of a non-deformable volume ventilation chamber formed under a plantar support of the shoe and in communication with the internal volume of the upper.

La présente invention concerne également les caractéristiques qui ressortiront au cours de la description qui va suivre, et qui devront être considérées isolément ou selon toutes leurs combinaisons techniques possibles.The present invention also relates to the characteristics which will emerge during the description which follows, and which should be considered in isolation or according to all their possible technical combinations.

Le patin à roues en ligne 1 désigné dans son ensemble et représenté sur la figure 1 comprend d'une part un châssis 2 dont une partie inférieure longitudinale porte les roues 3 et d'autre part une chaussure 4 formée par une tige en forme de coque 5 rigide surmontant une semelle 6 destinée à être fixée sur une platine supérieure 7 du châssis 2, le volume intérieur de ladite coque 5 étant en communication avec l'extérieur de façon à obtenir la ventilation interne dudit volume par amenée d'air A, via des moyens de canalisation 8.The inline skate 1 designated as a whole and represented in FIG. 1 comprises on the one hand a chassis 2 of which a longitudinal lower part carries the wheels 3 and on the other hand a shoe 4 formed by a shell-shaped rod 5 rigid surmounting a sole 6 intended to be fixed on an upper plate 7 of the chassis 2, the interior volume of said shell 5 being in communication with the outside so as to obtain internal ventilation of said volume by supplying air A, via channeling means 8.

D'une manière générale, les moyens de canalisation de l'air A, interposés entre une zone de captage externe et le volume interne de la coque 5, sont constitués par une chambre de ventilation 8 ménagée sous la semelle externe 6 définissant un appui plantaire 9 de la chaussure 4, et en communication avec le volume interne de la coque 5.In general, the air channeling means A, interposed between an external capture zone and the internal volume of the shell 5, are constituted by a ventilation chamber 8 formed under the external sole 6 defining a plantar support 9 of the shoe 4, and in communication with the internal volume of the shell 5.

Selon l'exemple représenté sur les figures 1 à 4, la chambre de ventilation 8 est délimitée par le plan externe inférieur 6a de la semelle 6 de la chaussure 4 et par le plan supérieur 7a de la platine 7 du châssis 2, qui coopère en fermeture avec ledit plan 6a par l'intermédiaire d'un rebord périphérique de liaison 10 dans lequel est ménagée au moins une zone de captage 11 de l'air A. Cette chambre de ventilation 8, ménagée entre deux parties 6, 7, rigides, présente donc un volume indéformable.According to the example shown in Figures 1 to 4, the ventilation chamber 8 is delimited by the lower external plane 6a of the sole 6 of the shoe 4 and by the upper plane 7a of the plate 7 of the chassis 2, which cooperates in closing with said plane 6a by means of a peripheral connection rim 10 in which at least one air collection zone 11 is provided. This ventilation chamber 8, formed between two rigid parts 6, 7, therefore presents a non-deformable volume.

La zone de captage 11 est ici une bouche frontale formée par une interruption du rebord périphérique 10 entre l'avant de la platine 7 du châssis 2 et la semelle 6 du bout de la chaussure 4. Bien entendu, cette bouche d'entrée d'air pourrait être latérale voire même être combinée à plusieurs bouches frontales et/ou latérales. L'intérêt est que cette bouche d'entrée d'air soit positionnée sur une face du patin disposée perpendiculairement à la direction de déplacement, de façon que le courant d'air généré par le déplacement du patin s'engouffre directement à l'intérieur de la chambre de ventilation.The capture zone 11 is here a front mouth formed by an interruption of the peripheral rim 10 between the front of the plate 7 of the chassis 2 and the sole 6 of the toe of the shoe 4. Of course, this inlet mouth of air could be lateral or even be combined with several front and / or lateral vents. The advantage is that this air inlet mouth is positioned on a face of the skate arranged perpendicular to the direction of movement, so that the air flow generated by the movement of the skate rushes directly inside. of the ventilation chamber.

La mise en communication de la chambre 8 de ventilation avec le volume interne de la coque 5 s'effectue par des trous 12 réalisés selon une disposition choisie sur l'appui plantaire 9, et en l'occurrence la semelle externe 6. Comme le montrent également les figures 2 et 3, la chambre de ventilation 8 peut être divisée par au moins une nervure longitudinale 13, de manière à constituer deux tuyères de canalisation 14, 15, de l'air capté A, et en regard desquelles sont ménagés une pluralité de trous d'aération 12.The communication of the ventilation chamber 8 with the internal volume of the shell 5 is effected by holes 12 made in a chosen arrangement on the plantar support 9, and in this case the external sole 6. As shown also Figures 2 and 3, the ventilation chamber 8 can be divided by at least one longitudinal rib 13, so as to constitute two ducting nozzles 14, 15, of the captured air A, and opposite which are formed a plurality air holes 12.

Bien entendu, on peut très bien imaginer que soit réalisé un nombre de tuyères plus important. On peut également imaginer une seule tuyère.Of course, one can very well imagine that a greater number of nozzles is produced. One can also imagine a single nozzle.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, représentée sur la figure 1, le fond 7a de chacune des tuyères 14, 15, de canalisation de l'air A comporte au droit de chacun des trous d'aération 12 des déflecteurs 16 destinés à créer des ressauts et tourbillons de l'air A afin d'augmenter sa vitesse d'écoulement et de favoriser son introduction forcée dans lesdits trous 12.According to another characteristic of the invention, shown in FIG. 1, the bottom 7a of each of the air ducting nozzles 14, 15 comprises at the right of each of the ventilation holes 12 of the deflectors 16 intended to create projections and vortices of air A in order to increase its flow speed and to favor its forced introduction into said holes 12.

Par ailleurs, le plan interne supérieur 6b de la semelle formant l'appui plantaire 9 comporte une pluralité de nervures longitudinales 17 interrompues par des passages 18 de liaison entre elles de manière à constituer des couloirs en chicanes, favorisant la circulation et la répartition de l'air A sous le pied de l'utilisateur.Furthermore, the upper internal plane 6b of the sole forming the plantar support 9 comprises a plurality of longitudinal ribs 17 interrupted by passages 18 connecting them so as to constitute corridors in baffles, promoting circulation and the distribution of the air A under the user's feet.

Ce premier exemple de réalisation de l'invention, avec collecte de l'air à l'avant, présente l'avantage de fournir une étanchéité bien meilleure par rapport à une construction avec des trous pratiqués directement sous la semelle ou directement sur la coque. Par ailleurs, l'introduction d'air est bien meilleure puisque la bouche d'entrée d'air se trouve directement perpendiculairement au flux de déplacement du courant d'air.This first embodiment of the invention, with air collection at the front, has the advantage of providing a much better seal compared to a construction with holes made directly under the sole or directly on the shell. Furthermore, the introduction of air is much better since the air inlet mouth is located directly perpendicular to the flow of movement of the air stream.

Il est à préciser que l'extrémité arrière de la chambre de ventilation 8 peut comporter un bouchon 19 ou un clapet de fermeture à débit réglable afin de régler le débit d'air. Un tel clapet peut également être prévu à l'avant au niveau de la bouche d'entrée d'air.It should be noted that the rear end of the ventilation chamber 8 may include a plug 19 or a shut-off valve with adjustable flow in order to regulate the air flow. Such a valve can also be provided at the front at the air inlet mouth.

Des variantes de réalisation basées sur le principe qui vient d'être décrit seront présentées sur les figures 5 à 9.Variant embodiments based on the principle which has just been described will be presented in FIGS. 5 to 9.

C'est ainsi que selon les figures 5, 6 et 6a, la chambre de ventilation 8A est ménagée à l'intérieur de la semelle interne de la chaussure définissant un appui plantaire 9A à double paroi 9Aa et 9Ab formant un volume creux, d'épaisseur prédéterminée, rapporté à l'intérieur de la coque 5A sur le plan interne supérieur 6Aa de la semelle externe 6A.Thus, according to FIGS. 5, 6 and 6a, the ventilation chamber 8A is formed inside the internal sole of the shoe defining a plantar support 9A with double wall 9Aa and 9Ab forming a hollow volume, of predetermined thickness, reported inside the shell 5A on the upper internal plane 6Aa of the outer sole 6A.

Une telle conception permet non seulement de rendre amovible l'appui plantaire, pour le laver par exemple, mais peut constituer, en fonction du choix du matériau le constituant, un organe d'amortissement du poids du patineur.Such a design not only makes it possible to make the plantar support removable, for washing it for example, but can constitute, depending on the choice of the material constituting it, a member for damping the weight of the skater.

Un tel appui plantaire 9A peut être obtenu par une opération d'extrusion soufflage d'une matière plastique, de façon indépendante du reste de la chaussure et donc amovible comme déjà cité.Such a plantar support 9A can be obtained by an extrusion blow-molding operation of a plastic material, independently of the rest of the shoe and therefore removable as already mentioned.

Dans ce cas, la bouche 11A d'entrée d'air A est obtenue au cours de l'opération d'extrusion sur l'appui plantaire proprement dit, et communique avec l'extérieur par une ouverture associée de la tige.In this case, the air inlet mouth 11A A is obtained during the extrusion operation on the plantar support proper, and communicates with the outside through an associated opening of the rod.

L'exemple de réalisation de la figure 7 diffère essentiellement des précédents en ce que la chambre de ventilation 8B se délimite entre un appui plantaire 9B rapporté à l'intérieur de la coque 5B et le plan interne supérieur 6Ba de la semelle 6B avec lequel il coopère en réalisant un écartement prédéterminé "e" par l'intermédiaire de nervures verticales longitudinales 20 issues de l'appui plantaire 9B. L'écartement "e" pourrait également être obtenu par l'intermédiaire d'une zone périphérique adjacente de l'appui plantaire 9B (non représentée sur le dessin).The embodiment of FIG. 7 essentially differs from the previous ones in that the ventilation chamber 8B is delimited between a plantar support 9B attached to the inside of the shell 5B and the upper internal plane 6Ba of the sole 6B with which it cooperates by achieving a predetermined spacing "e" via longitudinal vertical ribs 20 from the plantar support 9B. The spacing "e" could also be obtained by means of an adjacent peripheral zone of the plantar support 9B (not shown in the drawing).

Dans ce cas, l'écartement "e" entre l'appui plantaire 9B et le plan interne 6Ba de la semelle 6B formant la chambre de ventilation 8B est donné par le rebord périphérique interne 20 dudit appui plantaire.In this case, the spacing "e" between the plantar support 9B and the internal plane 6Ba of the sole 6B forming the ventilation chamber 8B is given by the internal peripheral rim 20 of said plantar support.

Dans l'exemple des figures 8 et 8bis, la différence réside dans le fait que l'écartement "e" entre l'appui plantaire 9c et le plan interne 6Ca de la semelle 6C de la chaussure formant la chambre de ventilation 8C est donné par des nervures longitudinales verticales 21 issues dudit plan interne 6Ca de la semelle 6C, sur le sommet desquelles repose l'appui plantaire 9C et dont les parois latérales forment des tuyères de canalisation 22, 23, 24, 25,..., de l'air A, en regard desquelles sont ménagés une pluralité de trous d'aération 12.In the example of FIGS. 8 and 8bis, the difference lies in the fact that the spacing "e" between the plantar support 9c and the internal plane 6Ca of the sole 6C of the shoe forming the ventilation chamber 8C is given by vertical longitudinal ribs 21 from said internal plane 6Ca of the sole 6C, on the top of which rests the plantar support 9C and the side walls of which form pipe nozzles 22, 23, 24, 25, ..., of the air A, opposite which are provided a plurality of ventilation holes 12.

Une bouche 11C d'entrée d'air A est ménagée également à l'extrémité avant de la coque au-dessus de la semelle 6C.An air inlet mouth 11C A is also provided at the front end of the shell above the sole 6C.

Enfin, selon le mode de réalisation des figures 9 et 9bis, la chambre de ventilation 8D est constituée par une semelle creuse 6D définissant un double fond obtenu au cours d'une opération de moulage de ladite semelle et dont le plan supérieur constitue l'appui plantaire 9D.Finally, according to the embodiment of Figures 9 and 9bis, the ventilation chamber 8D is constituted by a hollow sole 6D defining a double bottom obtained during a molding operation of said sole and whose upper plane constitutes the support plantar 9D.

De même, une bouche 11D d'entrée d'air A est prévue frontalement sur ladite semelle 6D.Similarly, an air inlet mouth 11D A is provided frontally on said sole 6D.

Un tel mode de réalisation est particulièrement adapté à une construction de tige 5D souple assemblée par collage, de façon connue en soi, à la semelle 6D obtenue de façon indépendante par moulage.Such an embodiment is particularly suitable for a flexible 5D rod construction assembled by gluing, in a manner known per se, to the sole 6D obtained independently by molding.

Bien entendu, l'appui plantaire délimitant le plan supérieur des chambres de ventilation pourra être conçu de toutes autres façons comme par exemple par assemblage de plusieurs éléments.Of course, the plantar support delimiting the upper plane of the ventilation chambers can be designed in any other way, for example by assembling several elements.
