Definitions
- the present invention relates to a shoe according to the preamble of the main claim.
- the most common and best-known device for fitting shoes to fit the human foot consists of a shoelace closure in which the shoelaces are passed through eyelets on the shoe, a firm closure being achieved by tightening and tying the shoelaces.
- This tried and tested shoe fastener is easy to manufacture and leads to a secure shoe fastener that holds the shoe in a snug fit on the foot.
- a disadvantage of the shoelace closure is that the closing of the shoe is relatively cumbersome, since the shoelace must be tightened at all eyes and the shoelaces must be secured against opening by tightening with knots or loops.
- Velcro fasteners have already been used for shoes, textile clothing, backpacks, bags and the like. Although such hook-and-loop fasteners result in very durable fasteners, they can open under extreme loads, in particular under the action of a pull which is directed away from the direction of the connecting plane of the two opposite hook-and-loop elements.
- Velcro fasteners only open or close individually, whereas shoelace fasteners, to a certain extent, can be tensioned or released by pulling on the end of the shoelace. This results in a more even distribution of the closure forces in the shoelace closure than in the case of individual Velcro closures.
- a generic shoe containing a shoelace and additional Velcro elements is known (US-A-4 296 558). This shoe does not offer the possibility of creating an interchangeable closure, i.e. to use either a shoelace or a Velcro to lock the shoe.
- the Velcro elements of this shoe are not used to lock the shoe, but only to regulate the tension of the shoe.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a shoe with a shoe fastener which gives the wearer of the shoe the option of optionally using the advantages of the shoelace fastener, namely a more secure, uniform and firm fastener, with the advantages of the Velcro fastener, namely quick opening and closing the closure, if desired, so that a quick change between the two types of closure is possible according to the individual needs of the shoe user.
- An interchangeable combination of a shoelace fastener with a Velcro fastener is created in that openings are provided on the shoe parts containing the shoelace eyelets, in which exchangeable connecting elements can be fastened which carry Velcro elements.
- the interchangeable connectors are attached in the openings and then on the opposite Tavern attached by means of the Velcro elements. If you want a shoelace closure, the connecting elements are removed from the openings and shoelace eyelets are inserted instead.
- the openings on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets consist of slots through which the connecting elements can be guided in the form of connecting strips, as a result of which they are slidably held in the slots.
- Half of the respective connecting strip contains a fastening part, with which the connecting strip can be fastened on the shoe part which is opposite the slot and contains the shoelace eyelets. After attaching one half of the connecting strip to the shoe part, the other half of the connecting strip can be slipped over the first half of the connecting strip and will be attached to the underlying second half of the connecting strip using the Velcro elements, whereby the two parts of the shoe containing the shoelace eyelets be firmly connected.
- the releasable fastening of the connecting strip can consist of a pin fastened to the connecting strip with a thickened hemispherical or spherical head, which can releasably engage in an opening on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets.
- the opening can preferably be a slot-like opening, into which the head of the pin engages and forms a connection that is resistant to tension by a stop at the end of the slot.
- the Velcro elements are preferably arranged on one side of the connecting strip in such a way that a fluffy fleece is arranged on approximately one half of the connecting strip and hook-like elements are arranged on approximately the other half of the connecting strip which, after the connecting strips have been passed through the openings and the two halves of the connecting strips have been placed one above the other mesh.
- the Velcro elements are on the side of the connecting strip which is opposite the side on which the releasable fastening is located.
- the connecting strip can initially with the releasable attachment lying on the underside, for. B. in the form of a pin with a head, are fastened in the opening on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets by pressing the pin into the opening, then the connecting strip can be guided through the slot on the opposite shoe part and folded over so that the two halves of the connecting strip lie one above the other.
- the Velcro elements located on the opposite halves of the connecting strip are pressed against one another and result in a closure which connects the two opposite parts of the shoe to one another.
- the Velcro fastener is opened, the connecting pin on the connecting strip is pulled out of the shoe part carrying the shoelace eyelets and the connecting strip is pulled out of the slot. With the shoelaces drawn into the shoelace eyelets, a traditional shoelace closure can then be produced.
- Fig. 1 shows a shoe 1 with a shoelace closure 10, which consists of a left shoe part 12a, which carries the left shoelace eyelets 14, and a right shoe part 12b, which accordingly carries the left shoelace eyelets 14.
- Shoelaces 16 are guided through the shoelace eyelets 14, with which the two shoe parts 12a and 12b can be firmly tied together (FIG. 2).
- the shoe part 12a has an opening in the form of a slot 26 below the shoelace eyelets 14 through which a connecting strip 24 made of a soft leather-like material is passed.
- the connecting strip which is shown in Figures 3 and 4, carries on one of its two surfaces Velcro elements, which are arranged so that one of the two halves, z. B. the left half, the hook-like Velcro elements, while the other half, z. B. the right half carries the interacting fleece elements.
- the arrangement of the right and left halves can be interchanged, too the two halves do not have to be of exactly the same size, but can vary in their surface distribution depending on the design needs or the shape of the shoe. It is only necessary that the overlapping halves of the connecting strip form a sufficiently large overlap area of the Velcro elements, so that a secure closure is guaranteed.
- a releasable fastening 28 in the form of a pin 32 with a hemispherical head is fastened, which can engage in an opening 30 on the shoe part 12b and can get caught in the opening 30, so that a connection between the Connecting strips 24 and the shoe part 12b can be produced.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Schuh gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs.The present invention relates to a shoe according to the preamble of the main claim.
Die häufigste und bekannteste Vorrichtung zum paßgerechten Verschließen von Schuhen am menschlichen Fuß besteht aus einem Schnürsenkelverschluß, bei dem Schnürsenkel durch Ösen am Schuh hindurchgeführt werden, wobei durch das Festziehen und Verschnüren der Schnürsenkel ein fester Verschluß erzielt wird. Dieser altbewährte Schuhverschluß ist einfach in der Herstellung und führt zu einem sicheren Schuhverschluß, der den Schuh in festen Paßsitz am Fuß hält. Nachteilig ist beim Schnürsenkelverschluß, daß das Verschließen des Schuhs relativ umständlich ist, da der Schnürsenkel an allen Ösen festgezogen werden muß und die Schnürsenkel nach dem Festziehen durch Knoten bzw. Schleifen gegen ein Öffnen gesichert werden müssen.The most common and best-known device for fitting shoes to fit the human foot consists of a shoelace closure in which the shoelaces are passed through eyelets on the shoe, a firm closure being achieved by tightening and tying the shoelaces. This tried and tested shoe fastener is easy to manufacture and leads to a secure shoe fastener that holds the shoe in a snug fit on the foot. A disadvantage of the shoelace closure is that the closing of the shoe is relatively cumbersome, since the shoelace must be tightened at all eyes and the shoelaces must be secured against opening by tightening with knots or loops.
Es hat zahlreiche Versuche gegeben, einfachere Verschlüsse zu schaffen, die auch als Schuhverschlüsse geeignet sind. Wegen des einfachen und schnellen Verschlußvorgangs hat in letzterer Zeit der sogenannte Klettverschluß Verbreitung gefunden. Er besteht aus ineinandergreifenden Klettelementen, deren eine Seite ein flauschiges Kunststoffvlies trägt und deren andere Seite steife Kunststoffäden mit häkchenartigen enden aufweist, wobei beim Zusammendrücken der beiden Klettelementschichten die häkchenartigen Enden sich in dem Vlies verhaken und ein relativ fest haltender Verschluß erzielt wird. Klettverschlüsse haben bereits für Schuhe, textile Bekleidung, Rucksäcke, Taschen und dergleichen Verwendung gefunden. Obwohl solche Klettverschlüsse recht haltbare Verschlüsse ergeben, können sie sich unter extremen Belastungen, insbesondere bei Einwirkung eines Zugs, der von der Richtung der Verbindungsebene der beiden gegenüberliegenden Klettelemente weg gerichtet ist, öffnen. Außerdem lassen sich Klettverschlüsse nur einzeln öffnen oder schließen, während demgegenüber Schnürsenkelverschlüsse bis zu einem gewissen Grad durch Zug am Ende des Schnürsenkels den gesamten Verschluß spannen oder lösen lassen. Dadurch ergibt sich beim Schnürsenkelverschluß eine gleichmäßigere Verteilung der Verschlußkräfte als bei einzelnen Klettverschlüssen.There have been numerous attempts to create simpler closures that are also suitable as shoe closures. Because of the simple and quick closure process, the so-called Velcro has recently become popular. It consists of interlocking Velcro elements, one side of which has a fluffy plastic fleece and the other side of which has stiff plastic threads with hook-like ends, whereby when the two layers of Velcro element are pressed together, the hook-like ends get caught in the fleece and a relatively tight closure is achieved. Velcro fasteners have already been used for shoes, textile clothing, backpacks, bags and the like. Although such hook-and-loop fasteners result in very durable fasteners, they can open under extreme loads, in particular under the action of a pull which is directed away from the direction of the connecting plane of the two opposite hook-and-loop elements. Let also Velcro fasteners only open or close individually, whereas shoelace fasteners, to a certain extent, can be tensioned or released by pulling on the end of the shoelace. This results in a more even distribution of the closure forces in the shoelace closure than in the case of individual Velcro closures.
Ein gattungsgemäßer Schuh, enthaltend einen Schnürsenkelverschluß und zusätzliche Klettelemente ist bekannt (US-A-4 296 558). Dieser Schuh bietet keine Möglichkeit, einen nach Wunsch austauschbaren Verschluß zu schaffen, d.h. entweder einen Schnürsenkelverschluß oder einen Klettverschluß zum Verschließen des Schuhs einsetzen zu können. Die Klettelemente dieses Schuhs dienen nicht zum Verschließen des Schuhs, sondern lediglich zur Regelung der Spannung des Schuhs.A generic shoe containing a shoelace and additional Velcro elements is known (US-A-4 296 558). This shoe does not offer the possibility of creating an interchangeable closure, i.e. to use either a shoelace or a Velcro to lock the shoe. The Velcro elements of this shoe are not used to lock the shoe, but only to regulate the tension of the shoe.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Schuh mit einem Schuhverschluß zu schaffen, der dem Träger des Schuhs die Möglichkeit gibt, wahlweise die Vorteile des Schnürsenkelver- schlusses, nämlich sicherer, gleichmäßiger und fest haltender Verschluß, mit den Vorteilen des Klettverschlusses, nämlich schnelles Öffnen und Verschließen des Verschlusses, nach Wunsch auszutauschen, so daß nach den individuellen Bedürfnissen des Schuhbenutzers ein schneller Wechsel zwischen den beiden Verschlußartten möglich ist.The object of the present invention is to provide a shoe with a shoe fastener which gives the wearer of the shoe the option of optionally using the advantages of the shoelace fastener, namely a more secure, uniform and firm fastener, with the advantages of the Velcro fastener, namely quick opening and closing the closure, if desired, so that a quick change between the two types of closure is possible according to the individual needs of the shoe user.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe bei einem gattungsgemäßen Schuh gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale im Kennzeichen des Hauptanspruches. Die Unteransprüche geben bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung wieder.This object is achieved in a generic shoe according to the preamble of the main claim according to the invention by the features in the characterizing part of the main claim. The subclaims give preferred embodiments of the invention.
Eine austauschbare Kombination eines Schmürsenkelverschlusses mit einem Klettverschluß wird dadurch geschaffen, daß an den die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteilen Öffnungen vorgesehen sind, in denen austauschbare Verbindungselemente befestigt werden können, die Klettelemente tragen. Die austauschbaren Verbindungselemente werden in den Öffnungen befestigt und dann am gegenüberliegenden Schenke vermittels der Klettelemente befestigt. Wünscht man einen Schnürsenkelverschluß, so werden die Verbindungselemente aus den Öffnungen entfernt und stattdessen Schnürsenkelösen eingeführt.An interchangeable combination of a shoelace fastener with a Velcro fastener is created in that openings are provided on the shoe parts containing the shoelace eyelets, in which exchangeable connecting elements can be fastened which carry Velcro elements. The interchangeable connectors are attached in the openings and then on the opposite Tavern attached by means of the Velcro elements. If you want a shoelace closure, the connecting elements are removed from the openings and shoelace eyelets are inserted instead.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform der Erfindung bestehen die Öffnungen auf dem die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteil aus Schlitzen, durch die die Verbindungselemente in Form von Verbindungsstreifen hindurchgeführt werden können, wodurch sie verschiebbar in den Schlitzen gehalten werden. Eine Hälfte des jeweiligen Verbindungsstreifens enthält ein Befestigungsteil, mit dem der Verbindungsstreifen auf dem dem Schlitz gegenüber liegenden, die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteil befestigt werden kann. Nach dem Befestigen der eine Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifens an dem Schuhteil kann der Verbindungsstreifen mit seiner anderen Hälfte über die erstere Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifens geschlagen werden und wird mit Hilfe der Klettelemente an der darunter liegenden zweiten Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifens befestigt werden, wodurch die beiden die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteile fest miteinander verbunden werden.In a particular embodiment of the invention, the openings on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets consist of slots through which the connecting elements can be guided in the form of connecting strips, as a result of which they are slidably held in the slots. Half of the respective connecting strip contains a fastening part, with which the connecting strip can be fastened on the shoe part which is opposite the slot and contains the shoelace eyelets. After attaching one half of the connecting strip to the shoe part, the other half of the connecting strip can be slipped over the first half of the connecting strip and will be attached to the underlying second half of the connecting strip using the Velcro elements, whereby the two parts of the shoe containing the shoelace eyelets be firmly connected.
Die lösbare Befestigung des Verbindungsstreifens kann aus einem an dem Verbindungsstreifen befestigten Stift mit einem verdickten halbkugel- oder kugelförmigen Kopf bestehen, der in eine auf dem die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteil befindliche Öffnung lösbar eingreifen kann. Die Öffnung kann bevorzugt eine schlitzartige Öffnung sein, in die der Kopf des Stiftes eingreift und durch Anschlag am Schlitzende eine gegen Zug beständige Verbindung bildet.The releasable fastening of the connecting strip can consist of a pin fastened to the connecting strip with a thickened hemispherical or spherical head, which can releasably engage in an opening on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets. The opening can preferably be a slot-like opening, into which the head of the pin engages and forms a connection that is resistant to tension by a stop at the end of the slot.
Die Klettelemente sind vorzugsweise auf dem Verbindungsstreifen einseitig so angeordnet, daß etwa auf einer Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifens ein flauschiges Vlies und etwa auf der anderen Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifens häkchenartige Elemente angeordnet sind, die nach dem Durchführen der Verbindungsstreifen durch die Öffnungen und Übereinanderlegen der beiden Hälften der Verbindungsstreifen ineinander greifen.The Velcro elements are preferably arranged on one side of the connecting strip in such a way that a fluffy fleece is arranged on approximately one half of the connecting strip and hook-like elements are arranged on approximately the other half of the connecting strip which, after the connecting strips have been passed through the openings and the two halves of the connecting strips have been placed one above the other mesh.
Bei einer solchen Anordnung befinden sich die Klettelemente auf der Seite des Verbindungsstreifens, die der Seite, an dem sich die lösbare Befestigung befindet, gegenüberliegt. Dadurch kann der Verbindungsstreifen zunächst mit der an der Unterseite liegenden lösbaren Befestigung, z. B. in Form eines Stiftes mit Kopf, in der Öffnung auf dem die Schnürsenkelösen enthaltenden Schuhteil durch Eindrücken des Stiftes in die Öffnung befestigt werden, dann kann der Verbindungsstreifen durch den auf dem gegenüberliegenden Schuhteil befindlichen Schlitz geführt und so umgeschlagen werden, daß die beiden Hälften des Verbindungsstreifens übereinander liegen. Durch Andrücken der oberen Hälfte an die untere Hälfte des Verbindungsstreifen werden die auf den sich gegenüber liegenden Hälften des Verbindungsstreifens befindlichen Klettelemente aneinandergedrückt und ergeben eine Verschluß, der die beiden gegenüberliegenden Teile des Schuhs miteinander verbindet.With such an arrangement, the Velcro elements are on the side of the connecting strip which is opposite the side on which the releasable fastening is located. As a result, the connecting strip can initially with the releasable attachment lying on the underside, for. B. in the form of a pin with a head, are fastened in the opening on the shoe part containing the shoelace eyelets by pressing the pin into the opening, then the connecting strip can be guided through the slot on the opposite shoe part and folded over so that the two halves of the connecting strip lie one above the other. By pressing the upper half against the lower half of the connecting strip, the Velcro elements located on the opposite halves of the connecting strip are pressed against one another and result in a closure which connects the two opposite parts of the shoe to one another.
Wird ein Schnürsenkelverschluß gewünscht, so wird der Klettverschluß geöffnet, der am Verbindungsstreifen befindliche Verbindungsstift aus dem die Schnürsenkelösen tragenden Schuhteil herausgezogen und der Verbindungsstreifen aus dem Schlitz herausgezogen. Mit in die Schnürsenkelösen eingezogenen Schnürsenkeln kann dann ein althergebrachter Schnürsenkelverschluß hergestellt werden.If a shoelace fastener is desired, the Velcro fastener is opened, the connecting pin on the connecting strip is pulled out of the shoe part carrying the shoelace eyelets and the connecting strip is pulled out of the slot. With the shoelaces drawn into the shoelace eyelets, a traditional shoelace closure can then be produced.
