Abstract

The boot (1) or shoe is covered, apart from the sole, with a layer of mesh (2) made from transparent plastic or other material, fixed to its surface at anchoring points (3). A lace (4) threaded through the mesh can be used to fasten the boot or shoe or apply tension at any required point. The mesh has a toothed under surface adjacent to the anchoring points to grip the lace, and the lace has end hooks (6) for fastening to the mesh.

Description

On considère une chaussure conventionnelle avec fermeture supérieure, latérale ou sans fermeture de type chausson. We consider a conventional shoe with upper, lateral or slipper-like closure.

Le type de fermeture limite souvent l'utilisateur a ciblé le serrage sur cette partie de la chaussure. Le type chausson ne permet pas de serrage autre que celui de l'élasticité de la matière. The type of closure often limits the user targeted tightening on this part of the shoe. The slipper type does not allow tightening other than that of the elasticity of the material.

Le but de cette invention est de proposer un serrage dans tous ces cas et sur toute la chaussure. The purpose of this invention is to provide a tightening in all these cases and over the entire shoe.

Cette invention se caractérise par la fixation d'un support enveloppant la totalité de la chaussure, hors semelle, comportant des mailles libres qui permettent le passage d'un lacet exerçant (ou non) une tension entre n'importe lequel des points de fixation (points d'ancrages) du dit support. This invention is characterized by the fixing of a support enveloping the entire shoe, excluding the sole, comprising free meshes which allow the passage of a lace exerting (or not) a tension between any of the fixing points ( anchor points) of said support.

Les mailles à proximité des points d'ancrages du support comportent des dents de retenue ayant pour fonction de bloquer le lacet contre ces points afin de générer, entre eux, une tension. The meshes near the anchoring points of the support have retaining teeth whose function is to block the lace against these points in order to generate tension between them.

Cette tension ajustable permet un serrage adapté de toutes parties de la chaussure sur le pied. This adjustable tension allows a suitable tightening of all parts of the shoe on the foot.

Le parcours du lacet ne passe pas obligatoirement par la partie bloquante, contre le point d'ancrage, et ne crée donc pas de tension non souhaitée, le parcours reste au gré de l'utilisateur. De plus, il peut choisir n'importe quelle maille sur la chaussure et donc adapter son serrage a ses besoins anatomiques. The course of the lace does not necessarily pass through the blocking part, against the anchor point, and therefore does not create undesired tension, the course remains at the discretion of the user. In addition, he can choose any mesh on the shoe and therefore adapt his tightening to his anatomical needs.

Les dessins annexes illustrent l'invention : - La figure 1 représente une forme possible de réalisation de l'invention, sur une chaussure. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: - Figure 1 shows a possible embodiment of the invention, on a shoe.

- La figure 2 montre une coupe d'un des points d'ancrage et de ses dents de blocage, pour le lacet. - Figure 2 shows a section of one of the anchor points and its locking teeth, for the lace.

En référence à ses dessins, le dispositif comprend un filet (2) enveloppant totalement ou partiellement une chaussure (l), maintenu par des points d'ancrage (3), et comportant des dents de blocage (5) autour de ces points. Un lacet (4) passant sous les mailles du filet (2) peut-être bloqué à un des points (3) par les dents (5). With reference to its drawings, the device comprises a net (2) completely or partially enveloping a shoe (l), held by anchor points (3), and comprising locking teeth (5) around these points. A lace (4) passing under the meshes of the net (2) can be blocked at one of the points (3) by the teeth (5).

La structure de la chaussure (l) serait souple ou semirigide, de manière à ce qu'une tension entre 2 points d'ancrage (3) du filet (2) puisse y exercer un serrage interne. La disposition du filet (2) sur la totalité de la chaussure (l) permettra un serrage du pied à n'importe quel endroit. Une disposition partielle du filet (2) pourra ne cibler que 2 ou 3 zones de serrage. The structure of the shoe (l) would be flexible or semi-rigid, so that a tension between 2 anchoring points (3) of the net (2) can exert an internal tightening there. The arrangement of the net (2) on the entire shoe (l) will allow the foot to be tightened at any location. A partial arrangement of the thread (2) may target only 2 or 3 tightening zones.

Le filet (2) serait en matière transparente plastique ou autre, pouvant résister à une forte traction, et ses points d'ancrage (3) seraient suffisamment espacés pour permettre le passage de plusieurs lacets (4). The net (2) would be made of transparent plastic or other material, capable of withstanding strong traction, and its anchor points (3) would be sufficiently spaced to allow the passage of several laces (4).

Les points d'ancrage (3) du filet (2) prennent la matière de la chaussure en sandwich et supportent une forte traction ;
Les dents de blocage (5) autour des points d'ancrage (3) seraient situées sous les mailles du filet (2) et seraient suffisamment saillantes pour bloquer le lacet (4), de ce fait, la tension crée en tirant sur le lacet (4) sera conservée entre deux points d'ancrage (3). The anchor points (3) of the net (2) take the material of the sandwich shoe and support strong traction;
The locking teeth (5) around the anchor points (3) would be located under the meshes of the net (2) and would be sufficiently protruding to block the lace (4), therefore, the tension created by pulling on the lace (4) will be kept between two anchor points (3).

Le lacet (4) pourra être conventionnel, permettant une fermeture à noeud de celui-ci, ou comporter une attache (6) permettant une accroche n'importe où sur le filet (2). The lace (4) can be conventional, allowing a knot closure thereof, or include a fastener (6) allowing a grip anywhere on the net (2).

Selon une variante non illustrée, l'orientation du filet (2) peut-être perpendiculaire par rapport à l'axe de la tige. According to a variant not illustrated, the orientation of the thread (2) may be perpendicular to the axis of the rod.

Claims

Claims l) Device for tightening the foot in a flexible or semi-rigid shoe characterized by a support composed of an anchored net (2), fixed on the entire external surface of the shoe (l), comprising anchoring points ( 3). and by the passage of a lace (4), in the meshes of the anchored net (2) which will subject a tension between two anchor points (3) and more.

2) Device according to claim 1 characterized in that the lace (4), can pass under the meshes of the anchored net (2) without exerting tension outside the locking points according to a second or third passage of the lace (4 ) under the stitches (2) of the net.

3) Device according to claims 1, 2, according to which the lace lock (4) at the anchor points (3) is ensured by gripping teeth (5) themselves on the anchor points (3), Ja generated tension being preserved by a blocking of the lace (4) against the anchor points (3).

4) device according to all of the claims

previous include at their end fasteners (6) for prece hang in the mesh of the net (2).
