摘要:
An item of wearing apparel for receiving an extremity, such as a ski shoe or boot for receiving a foot, provided with an energy source supplying an energy consuming device, such as a heating device, and a device controlling a supply element of the energy consuming device connected between the energy source and the consumer device. The shoe or boot includes a device for detecting the presence of a foot within the boot so as to allow the opening of the energy supplying element alone when the boot is put on and to automatically cause the closing of this supply element as soon as the boot is removed. The energy consuming device incorporated in the boot can be a heating device of the electric type in which case the device for detecting the presence of the foot in the boot acts on an electric switch connected, between an electric energy source and a heating assembly with heat resistance, or even the type using liquid or gaseous fuel and in this case, the device for detecting the presence of the foot in the boot acting on a device controlling a valve connected between a gas or liquid fuel tank and a heating assembly. Preferably, the device for detecting the presence of the foot in the boot are sensitive to the pressure exerted by the foot on the internal sole of the boot and this detection of the pressure is transmitted mechanically to the device controlling the element for supplying the heating assembly with energy. The boot with an upper according to the invention which can be an alpine or cross-country ski shoe or boot is provided with a heating device which, in the case of the non-limiting embodiment presently described, is of the gas fuel type. However, the invention could be applied in the same manner to a boot provided with an electric or liquid fuel heating device.
摘要:
A boot liner, preferably for use with a ski boot of the rear-entry type, including an exterior envelope and an interior sock, having an injection cavity therebetween. Within the injection cavity, a filling product is designed to be injected for retaining the foot of the skier within the boot liner and within the ski boot within which it is adapted to be used. The exterior envelope and the interior sock are sealed along a lower peripheral edge defining a sole portion of the boot liner. The peripheral edge is engageable within a peripheral groove in the internal wall of the exterior envelope to thereby seal the injection cavity from the sole portion of the boot liner to thereby prevent the filling product from flowing beneath the sole of the foot positioned within the boot liner. The injection cavity is defined by respective surfaces of the external envelope and the interior sock. The surface of the interior sock adjacent the cavity is coated with a anti-friction film which is micro-porous for permitting the escape of residual air within the cavity as the filling product is injected therein, while retaining the filling product. Further, the surface or the exterior envelope adjacent the cavity includes a plurality of peripheral ribs which direct the flow of the filling product from the injection orifice toward remote portions of the cavity. Maintenance means and foot retention means can be used in conjunction with the boot liner of the present invention.
摘要:
An item of wearing apparel, such as a ski shoe or boot, provided with an energy source and an energy consuming device, such as a heater, and a mechanism for automatically terminating the energy supply as soon as the wearer removes the item of apparel. More specifically, the ski shoe or boot includes a shell base on which is journalled at least one movable upper element, such as a rear spoiler or a front cuff, to permit insertion and removal of the boot, wherein the boot includes a device controlling the energy supply of the consuming device. The boot further includes a linkage device between the movable upper element and the device controlling the energy supply so as to allow the energy supply of the consuming device only when the movable element of the boot is closed and to automatically cause the fuel supply to be shut off as soon as the movable element of the boot is moved toward the open position.
摘要:
A ski boot for use with a ski having a top surface includes a rigid shell base having an upper wedged thereon at an orientation angle alpha with respect to the normal to a mating surface carried by a tenon on the toe end of the base. A separate sole portion is provided having a recess complementary to the tenon for slidably receiving the same. The recess of the portion is wedged on a ski at an orientation angle beta with respect to the top surface of the ski when the shell base is connected to the ski by a binding. The global wedging angle of the boot is the algebraic sum of the orientation angle alpha and the wedging angle beta.
摘要:
An item of wearing apparel, such as a shoe or boot, particularly for downhill or cross-country skiing, having a foot support zone, a sole, and an upper which may be tightened, in which the shoe or boot has a heating assembly located proximate the sole. The heating assembly includes a heating device such as a burner for producing heat, a plate for diffusion of the heat, the plate being located proximate the foot support zone, a source of fuel, a supply circuit for feeding fuel to the heating device, and a valve for regulating the feeding of fuel to the heating device. The energy supply is automatically turned off when the upper of the shoe or boot is loosened.
摘要:
Ski boot with a device for transmitting flexion forces of the boot upper to the shell base, comprising a slide (8) movable in a transverse groove (7) at the lower forward edge of the cuff (5). The slide is adjustable through the intermediary of a push element (10) which causes displacement of a lock (12) in a rotational movement about an axis (30) perpendicular to the direction of displacement of the push element.
摘要:
A ski boot having an upper which is partially journalled on a shell base. The upper includes a front and rear portion. The front portion or cuff is adapted to flex forward with respect to the shell base. Also provided is a control means for controlling the rigidity and flexional characteristics of the boot. The control means includes a flexion band having an arch which extends over the instep of the boot, and also includes two substantially horizontal lateral arms each attached to one end of the arch and extending over each lateral side of the shell base. Each lateral arm is connected to the bottom front portion of the cuff. The arch comprises a first deformation zone and the two lateral arms comprise second deformation zones. The flexion band also includes a means for maintaining a portion of the flexion band in a fixed position with respect the shell base. This means is positioned substantially in a zone in which the arch is connected to each lateral arm. In addition, the cuff also includes a groove, above the flexion band, which extends across the instep of the boot. A cursor is adapted to be displaced at any position along the groove to transmit the flexion force from the lower portion of the cuff to the flexion band.
摘要:
Device for opening and closing a rear-entry ski boot, by simultaneous rotation of front and rear portions of the upper without raising the front portion. The rear portion rotates on the shell base about a hinge pin, and the front portion about a pivot axis at the front end of the shell base. The front and rear portions are joined to each other by a pin-and-slot connection located in overlapping extensions of these elements.
摘要:
Alpine ski boot comprising a shell base (8) equipped with a walking sole (9) and a shaft (10), a rigid inner sole (11) which is movable vertically in relation to the bottom (12) of the shell base (8) and elements for closing said boot and for maintaining the user's foot in position. The boot comprises a device (13, 13') for transmitting pressures exerted by the foot, from the interior to the exterior of the boot, the device comprising the inner sole (11) hinged (14) to the bottom (12) of the shell base (8), and a support element (17) which is movable in translation across the walking sole (9) and which is subjected to the pressures transmitted by the inner sole (11) toward the top (7) of the ski (2).
摘要:
A ski boot of the rear entry type having an upper and a shell base. The upper includes a front portion journalled on the shell base around a first journal and a rear portion journalled on the front portion around a second journal. The front portion of the upper includes two lateral extensions extending from the first journal to the heel of the shell base. A portion of the lateral extensions and/or the second journal engages an abutment on the shell base so as to rigidly link the upper to the shell base when the lower leg of the skier presses rearwardly on the the upper, thereby permitting the shell base to absorb this rearwardly directed force.
