Description

The invention relates to light industry and can be used in the manufacture of sports shoes for reliable protection of the foot, ankle joint and lower leg of athletes when playing soccer, characterized by an increased degree of injury.

Known football boots with a high back, having a soft pad (US Pat. Swiss No. 475729), with a hard toe and a hard high back (DE 3802587 A1), as well as a boot with a toe, vamp and wrestlers reinforced with aramid fibers (FR 2770980 A3).

The disadvantage of this shoe is the vulnerability to injuries of the ankle joint and lower leg.

A boot is known from DT 2606800 A1, which had an elongated tongue and high berets with an interlining from a layer of soft material, with outer rollers and side stripes with the same material.

This design does not prevent the injury of the lower leg.

The closest prototype of this invention is protected by US patent No. 5513450 construction of a football boot, which is a double boot with high berets. The inner boot is made of elastic soft material, and the outer one on the toe and vamp has protective rollers. In front of the berets, a solid patch plate with an upper retaining detachable loop is installed.

The whole structure does not protect the back of the athlete’s lower leg, in particular, the tibia and tibia in the back, triceps muscle of the lower leg, calf and soleus muscles. In addition, this boot does not provide high ball sensitivity due to duplication of the boot.

The problem with football boots is that they should be lightweight and very elastic. The top should consist of thin soft skin that fits the leg tight, providing better sensitivity when hitting the ball and handling when handling it.

At the same time, a too thin elastic upper does not protect the foot, and even less the shin, from such injuries as bruises, sprains, dislocations, tears, compression, fractures.

The specified contradiction can be resolved by the implementation of the technical result of the present invention, which consists in comprehensive comprehensive protection of the foot and lower leg of a football player while maintaining effective ball control.

The objective of the invention presented by the author is to create a gentle football boot, the structural elements of which dampen or dissipate the force of traumatic blows to the foot and lower leg in collisions during football matches and in training. The relative position, configuration and dimensions of these elements provide the sensitivity of the foot when hitting the ball.

This problem is solved by means of sports shoes with the features of claim 1 of the claims. Preferred embodiments are given in the dependent clauses by way of example only.

The essence of the invention lies in the fact that the components of a sparing football boot - a sparing boot and a sparing bootleg - are equipped with protective elements, the relative position of which at the required distances creates in the aggregate a movable "floating" structure that provides free movement of these elements in different directions relative to each other and not limiting motor functions of the athlete's foot and lower leg. These elements can both be movably connected to each other and not connected.

The distances between the protective elements provide the flexibility of the entire structure, its lightness compared to the same area protection from the same solid material, and also maintain the sensitivity of the legs when hitting and handling the ball. The latter characteristic is especially relevant for a gentle boot, the thickness of the protective elements of which is therefore minimal - about 0.5 mm. To further facilitate the design, the elements under consideration are made of impact-resistant material, which should have exceptional lightness.

At the same time, additional protection of the foot and lower leg is created by the presence on the inner side of the protective elements of a layer of soft shock-absorbing material, along with the elements of the shock absorbing or dissipating energy of traumatic shocks.

The configuration of protective elements that do not contain sharp traumatic corners, their sizes and relative positions create the maximum protection area for the entire structure for each individual model of a gentle football boot, depending on the size and completeness of the latter.

The invention is described in more detail below as an example of its implementation with reference to the drawings, where:

figure 1 - sketch of a gentle football boots, according to one embodiment of the invention;

figure 2 - schematic diagram of the location of the protective elements;

figure 3 - sketch of an elongated gentle shaft;

figa is a sketch of a shortened gentle shaft as an independent item of shoes.

Figure 1 shows a sparing football boot, consisting of perforated ventilation holes 1 sparing boot 2 and sparing shaft 3, which are either connected (detachable or not detachable), or not connected. In the latter case, greater mobility of the entire structure and more efficient ball control during processing during the game is ensured.

The sparing boot 2 is a studded sports shoe, the top 4 of which, including, in particular, the toe 5, the scoop 6, berets 7, the back 8, is reinforced with inclined, vertical and horizontal protective elements 9, shown in figure 2. Elements are made of light impact-resistant material, including polystyrene. The thickness of such elements is at least 0.5 mm, and the distance between them is about 1.0 mm. On the inner side of the plate is lined (welded, sheathed, pasted over) with a thin layer of lightweight soft shock-absorbing material, such as foam rubber. However, cushioning is not necessary.

These elements are fixed by known methods on the covering 10 of the gentle cleats, or it is preferable to be sealed between the coating and the lining, or in the tight elastic foot, short or knee-length gentle toe, or in the gentle leg, which can be used as separate pieces of shoes with other types of football boots.

The protective elements 9 in the toe 5 protect the phalanges and joints of the toes of the foot, tendons of the long extensor of the big toe, short extensor of the toe, nerve fibers, dorsal finger arteries, lymph vessels, skin and nails of the toes from injuries.

Protective elements 9 of the union 6 and berets 7 serve to protect against injuries of the metatarsal bones (I-Y), tarsal bones, tendons of the long and short extensor of the toes, short extensor of the big toe, lower ligament-retainer of the extensor of the fingers, medial ankle, tendons of the anterior tibia muscles, lateral ankle, nerve fibers, dorsal artery of the foot, lymphatic vessels and skin of the dorsum of the foot.

The protective elements 9 of the back 8 protect the heel bone, the back of the ankle joint, the heel (Achilles) tendon, nerve fibers, parts of the medial plantar artery and plantar venous arch, lymphatic vessels and calcaneal skin from injuries.

Sparing shaft 3 is performed in two versions: elongated to the knee, as shown in figure 3, and shortened, approximately to the middle of the leg or shorter (Figa). It is a cylinder covering the lower leg and ankle joint in front, on the sides and behind, of irregular shape, the diameter of which, due to the stretching insert II, varies in direct proportion to the completeness of the athlete’s lower leg.

In both versions, the gentle shaft is made in several sizes according to the size / length of the shaft.

The sparing shaft is perforated with ventilation holes 1 and equipped with a protective disk 12 made of lightweight impact-resistant material, vertical and inclined protective / elements 9, a light tightening device 13 (Figure 2), and in a shorter version, a light upper protective ledge 14.

The thickness of the protective elements, the disc and the upper protrusion is slightly larger than on the sparing boot, and is at least 1.0 mm, and the distance between them is from 1.0-3.0 mm, where the ventilation holes are located 1. C the inner side of the protective elements, the disc and the upper protrusion are lined with a layer of light soft cushioning material 15 and are attached by known methods either on the coating 10, or are sealed between the coating and the lining 16.

The protective elements, the disc and the upper protrusion mounted around the entire perimeter and height of the sparing bootleg protect the inner and outer ankles, tarsal bones, fibula and tibia, ankle joint, upper ligament-retainer of the extensor tendons, short and long peroneal muscles, and short and long peroneal muscles , anterior tibial muscle, long flexor of the toes, long extensor of the toes of the foot, triceps tibia muscle, calf muscle, nerve fibers, anterior and posterior tibia tsovye artery, anterior and posterior tibial veins, lymph vessels and skin tibia.

The tightening device 13, which serves for reliable fixation on the lower leg of the upper edge of the gentle shaft, may consist of a tensile elastic tape 17 and a Velcro-type lock-fastener 18 connected to it, located, as a rule, in the back of the shaft. An elastic tape made, for example, of rubber, is preferably closed between the coating and the lining and stitched with a lock-fastener.

The tensile insert II is sewn in at the rear over the entire height of the shaft and is reinforced with a protective flap valve 19 made of lightweight shock-resistant material or reinforced with protective elements. The valve with one edge along the entire length is sewn either to the lining or to the coating, and the other is attached to them with a Velcro-type textile fastener.

A gentle boot as a stand-alone shoe is ready to be used with other models / types of football boots already in use. In this case, it may have in the lower part of the mount in the form of a series of loops 20 (Figa).

The gentle shaft inside, if necessary, has an interlining 21 of a layer of light soft cushioning material with a thickness of at least 2.0 mm

Protective elements and boots and shafts are made of both hard, lightweight, shock-resistant materials, and flexible. In the latter case, they are defined as protective segments.

Protective elements or segments over the entire covering area 10 or the lining space of the gentle boot and gentle boot, gentle long or short toe, or gentle leg warmer may be replaced by a thin lightweight metal or polymer reinforcing mesh, or other lightweight impact-resistant materials, for example, Concern’s Tvaron type AKZO Nobel or Kevlar type of DuPont company.

The movable structure of the connected or not connected to each other protective elements can independently be used as a separate item of shoes.

Obviously, the implementation of the present invention can be carried out in various ways, presented in the description, which should be considered as illustrative and non-limiting.
