Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Verschluß für einen Schuh, insbesondere einem Sportschuh, mit einem Bodenteil, über den ein sägezahnartiger Zahnriemen führbar ist und an welchem ein Spannhebel schwenkbar angelenkt ist, wobei in dem Spannhebel ein Klinkenstück federnd so gelagert ist, daß es beim Öffnen des Spannhebels an einer steilen Flanke des Riemens angreift, um diesen zu transportieren, und an dem Bodenteil ferner eine federbelastete, zweiarmige Rücklaufsperre schwenkbar angelenkt ist, die mit einer an einem Arm vorgesehenen Sperrnase an einer steilen Flanke des Zahnriemens angreift, wobei durch Druck auf den anderen Arm die Sperrnase gegen Federkraft außer Eingriff mit dem Zahnriemen bringbar istThe invention relates to a closure for a shoe, in particular a sports shoe, with a bottom part over which a sawtooth-like toothed belt can be guided and to which a tensioning lever is pivotably articulated, a pawl piece being resiliently mounted in the tensioning lever so that it opens when it is opened of the tensioning lever engages on a steep flank of the belt in order to transport it, and a spring-loaded, two-armed backstop is also pivotally articulated on the bottom part and engages with a locking lug provided on one arm on a steep flank of the toothed belt, by pressure on the other arm, the locking lug can be brought out of engagement with the toothed belt against spring force

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein sicheres und leichtes Verschließen und/oder Öffnen des Schuhs unter verschiedensten äußeren Einflüssen, wie Nässe, niedrige Temperaturen oder Schmutz zu gewährleisten. Zusätzlich soll der Schuh (meist zum Zweck der Sportausübung) sehr fest verschlossen werden. Dies führt zu großen Spannungen am Verschlußteil und hat bei bekannten Ausführungsformen ein Nichtfunktionieren und häufig eine Beschädigung desselben und/oder des Zahnriemens zur Folge.The object of the invention is to ensure safe and easy closing and / or opening of the shoe under a wide variety of external influences, such as wetness, low temperatures or dirt. In addition, the shoe should be closed very tightly (usually for the purpose of doing sports). This leads to high tensions on the closure part and, in known embodiments, results in non-functioning and often damage to the same and / or the toothed belt.

Ein Zahnriemenverschluß nach dem Stand der Technik ist in der EP-A1400213 (SIDI) geoffenbart, wobei im Spannhebel des Mechanismus ein durch Federkraft verschiebbarer, mit der Zahnreihe in Eingriff bringbarer Teil angeordnet ist, der von dem Spannhebel elastisch in Richtung Zahnriemen gedrängt wird.A toothed belt fastener according to the prior art is disclosed in EP-A1400213 (SIDI), in which a spring-displaceable part which can be brought into engagement with the row of teeth and which is elastically urged by the tensioning lever in the direction of the toothed belt is arranged in the tensioning lever of the mechanism.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform eines solchen Verschlusses ist in der EP-A2-387402 geoffenbart, wobei der Zahnriemen mindestens zwei Zahnreihen aufweist, von denen eine hauptsächlich zur Spannung des Riemens (Verschließen des Schuhs) und die weiteren mit dem Bremsmittel (zum Öffnen des Verschlusses) zusammenwirken. Bei beiden Ausführungsformen weist der Spannhebel in seinem Arbeitsbereich einen verschiebbaren Teil auf, der die formschlüssige Verbindung mit der Verzahnung des Zahnriemens darstellt.A further embodiment of such a closure is disclosed in EP-A2-387402, the toothed belt having at least two rows of teeth, one of which mainly cooperates with tensioning the belt (closing the shoe) and the other with the braking means (for opening the closure) . In both embodiments, the tensioning lever has a displaceable part in its working area, which represents the positive connection with the toothing of the toothed belt.

Die US-A-3 662435 (ALLSOP) beschreibt in ausführlicher Weise einen ähnlichen Verschließmechanismus, der einen manuell bewegbaren einstückigen Spannhebel oder einen Spannhebel aufweist, der aus einem Hebelstück, einem Haltearm und einem Operationsstück zu einem schwenkbaren Eingreifen bzw. Nichteingreifen in den Zahnriemen ausgebildet ist. Bei der letzteren Ausführungsform ist der Haltearm in Richtung Zahnriemen federbelastet angeordnet und an dem Spannhebel schwenkbar gelagert. Gattungsgemäß weist dieser Verschluß jedoch einen einarmigen Hebel auf, mittels welchem der Zahnriemen beim Schließen des Spannhebels transportiert wird. In der Praxis hat sich diese Verschlußvariante daher nicht bewahrt.US-A-3 662435 (ALLSOP) describes in detail a similar locking mechanism, which is a manually movable one-piece cocking lever or a cocking lever has, which is formed from a lever piece, a holding arm and an operating piece for pivotable engagement or non-engagement in the toothed belt. In the latter embodiment, the holding arm is arranged spring-loaded in the direction of the toothed belt and is pivotably mounted on the tensioning lever. Generically, however, this closure has a one-armed lever, by means of which the toothed belt is transported when the tensioning lever is closed. In practice, this closure variant has therefore not been retained.

Weiters ist durch die EP-B1-259896 (Raichle) ein Zahnriemenverschluß bekannt geworden, der ein bandförmiges, um einen Schischuh geführtes Halteelement enthält, an dessen Ende Rastkerben angeordnet sind, wobei der Verschlußteil durch einen schwenkbaren Spannhebel, in dem ein in die Zahnreihe eingreifender Schieber geführt ist, der bei der Rückwartsbewegung des Spannhebels durch Federkraft in seine Ruhelage zurückgebracht wird, und durch eine lösbare Rücklaufsperre gebildet wird.Furthermore, a toothed belt lock has become known from EP-B1-259896 (Raichle), which contains a band-shaped holding element guided around a ski shoe, at the end of which locking notches are arranged, the locking part being pivoted by a pivoting lever, in which one engages in the row of teeth Slider is guided, which is returned to its rest position by spring force during the backward movement of the tensioning lever, and is formed by a releasable backstop.

Der Spannhebel 4 kann in einer weiteren Ausführungsform, die in Fig. 3 gezeigt wird, in seinem Rückenteil 4' eine Ausnehmung 4"' aufweisen und ist in seiner geschlossenen Stellung mittels an beiden Seitenwangen 4" ausgebildeten, einwärts gerichteten Noppen 6 verriegelt, die im letzten Teilabschnitt der Schließbewegung des Spannhebels 4 in gekrümmte Rinnen 6' eingreifen, welche an beiden Seitenwänden 1' des Bodenteils 1 ausgebildet sind und an deren Ende sich Bohrungen 6" befinden, in denen die entsprechenden Noppen 6 bei geschlossener Stellung des Spannhebels 4 einrasten.1 to 3, the closure according to the invention has a base part 1 with two correspondingly shaped side walls 1 ', on which a clamping lever 4 consisting of two side walls 4' 'and a back part 4' is pivotably articulated along a pivot axis 5 by means of two rivets 3, which may have a recess 4 ‴, as shown in FIG. 3, this base part 1 having a projection 2 in the transport direction indicated by the arrow B before and / or after the articulation axis 5 in order to, according to the invention, as in FIGS 2 is shown to create a gap between a toothed belt 16 and this bottom part 1, and the bottom part 1 contains a bore 3 in order to fasten it (eg by means of a rivet) to the shoe upper 23. In a further embodiment, which is shown in FIG. 3, the tensioning lever 4 can have a recess 4 '' in its back part 4 'and is locked in its closed position by means of inwardly directed knobs 6' on both side cheeks 4 ', which in the last section of the closing movement of the tensioning lever 4 engage in curved grooves 6 ', which are formed on both side walls 1' of the bottom part 1 and at the end of which there are bores 6 "in which the corresponding knobs 6 engage when the tensioning lever 4 is in the closed position.

Der Spannhebel 4 enthält ein zweiarmiges Klinkenstück 7, das im Abstand von der Anlenkachse 5 in dem Spannhebel 4 zwischen dessen Seitenwangen 4" um eine Schwenkachse 8 drehbar angelenkt ist und in einer Stellung wirkt, die von einer Feder 9 gesteuert wird, welche in einem ausgesparten Sitz auf einem Arm 7' des Klinkenstückes 7 angeordnet ist und zwischen diesem Arm und der Innenfläche des Rückenteils 4' des Spannhebels 4 wirkt. Das Klinkenstück 7 ist von der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Lage bis zu einem im Rückenteil 4' des Spannhebels 4 ausgebildeten Anschlag 10, wie in Fig. 1 zu sehen ist, um einen bestimmten Winkel verdrehbar und kann mittels des zweiten Armes 7" an einer steilen Flanke 17 in den Zahnriemen 16 eingreifen. Im Fall einer weiteren Ausführungsform, die in Fig. 3 dargestellt ist und bei welcher der Rückenteil 4' des Spannhebels 4 im Bereich der Feder 9 erfindungsgemäß eine Ausnehmung 4"' aufweist, ist die Feder 9 dann vorteilhafterweise eine Schraubenfeder um die Anlenkachse 8 des Klinkenstückes 7 und dieses entweder mit einem verkürzten Arm 7' oder einarmig ausgebildet.The tensioning lever 4 contains a two-armed pawl piece 7, which is pivoted at a distance from the articulation axis 5 in the tensioning lever 4 between its side cheeks 4 ″ about a pivot axis 8 and acts in a position which is controlled by a spring 9 which is recessed in a Seat is arranged on an arm 7 'of the pawl piece 7 and acts between this arm and the inner surface of the back part 4' of the tensioning lever 4. The pawl piece 7 is formed from the position shown in Fig. 2 to one in the back part 4 'of the tensioning lever 4 Stop 10, as can be seen in FIG. 1, can be rotated by a certain angle and can engage by means of the second arm 7 "on a steep flank 17 in the toothed belt 16. In the case of a further embodiment, which is shown in FIG. 3 and in which the back part 4 ′ of the tensioning lever 4 has a recess 4 ″ according to the invention in the area of the spring 9, the spring 9 is then advantageously a helical spring around the articulation axis 8 of the pawl piece 7 and this either with a shortened arm 7 'or one arm.

An dem Bodenteil 1 ist mittels eines Stiftes 12 eine zweiarmige Rücklaufsperre 11 angeordnet, die an diesem Bodenteil mittels einer Feder 14 wirkt, sodaß die auf dem in Transportrichtung B nach dem Stift 12 gelegenen Arm befindlichen Spermasen 13, 13' der Rücklaufsperre 11 auf den Zahnriemen 16 gedrückt werden, wobei diese Feder an einem axialen Sitz der Rücklaufsperre 11 angeordnet ist und zwischen der Rücklaufsperre 11 und einer der Seitenwände 1' des Bodenteils 1 wirkt. Durch Drücken an dem zweiten Arm 15 gegen die Federkraft 14 der Rücklaufsperre werden die Spermasen 13, 13' von den entsprechenden Zähnen des Zahnriemens 16 getrennt.On the bottom part 1, a two-armed backstop 11 is arranged by means of a pin 12, which acts on this bottom part by means of a spring 14, so that the sperm 13, 13 'of the backstop 11 located on the arm located in the transport direction B after the pin 12 on the toothed belt 16 are pressed, this spring being arranged on an axial seat of the backstop 11 and acting between the backstop 11 and one of the side walls 1 'of the bottom part 1. By pressing on the second arm 15 against the Spring force 14 of the backstop separates the sperm 13, 13 'from the corresponding teeth of the toothed belt 16.

Durch den Bodenteil 1, zwischen seiner Basis und der Rücklaufsperre 11, sowie zwischen den beiden Seitenwangen 4'' des Spannhebels 1, ist ein Zahnriemen 16 hindurchgeführt, dessen Zähne je eine steile 17 und eine flache 17' Flanke aufweisen, wobei dieser Zahnriemen 16 an seinem in Richtung Schuhoberteil 23 gelegenen Ende, wie in Fig. 4 bis 8 gezeigt, unterschiedliche,m einander zugeordnete Einhakmittel 18, 18', 19, 19', 20, 20' 21, 21' 22, 22' aufweisen kann und seine Transportrichtung beim Verschließen des Schuhes in Figuren 1 und 2 durch den Pfeil B angedeutet ist.A toothed belt 16 is guided through the base part 1, between its base and the backstop 11, and between the two side cheeks 4 ″ of the tensioning lever 1, the teeth of which each have a steep 17 and a flat 17 ′ flank, this toothed belt 16 being on its end in the direction of the upper 23, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 8, can have different hooking means 18, 18 ', 19, 19', 20, 20 '21, 21' 22, 22 'assigned to one another and its direction of transport when closing the shoe in Figures 1 and 2 is indicated by the arrow B.

Die Wirkungsweise des erfindungsgemäßen Zahnriemenverschlusses wird im weiteren unter Bezugnahme auf die Fig. 1 bis 3 näher erläutert.The mode of operation of the toothed belt closure according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

Der Riemen 16 wird in den Bodenteil 1 zwischen seiner Basis und dem Klinkenstück 7 des Spannhebels 4 eingeführt, bis der verzahnten Teil des Riemens 16 in den verzahnten Teil 13, 13' der Rücklaufsperre 11 eingreift. Wenn der Spannhebel 4 in Richtung des Pfeiles A um die Anlenkachse 5 von der geschlossenen Stellung bis zur maximalen Öffnungsstellung geschwenkt wird, wird mit dieser Bewegung, bei der sich gleichzeitig das mit dem Arm 7" in den Zahnriemen 16 eingreifende Klinkenstück 7 bis zum Berühren des Anschlages 10 um die Anlenkachse 8 verdreht, der Zahnriemen 16 in Richtung des Pfeiles B transportiert und somit die Schwenkbewegung des Spannhebels 4 und des Klinkenstückes 7 in eine lineare Translationsbewegung des Zahnriemens 16 verwandelt. Die auf diese Linearbewegung des Riemens übertragene Kraft überwindet den Widerstand der Feder 14 der Rücklaufsperre 11, sodaß das Hindurchführen des Zahnriemens 16 mit sukzessivem Einrasten des verzahnten Teils 13, 13' der Rücklaufsperre 11 in aufeinanderfolgenden verzahnten Teilstücken des Riemens 16 ermöglicht wird.The belt 16 is inserted into the bottom part 1 between its base and the pawl piece 7 of the tensioning lever 4 until the toothed part of the belt 16 engages in the toothed part 13, 13 'of the backstop 11. If the tensioning lever 4 is pivoted in the direction of arrow A about the articulation axis 5 from the closed position to the maximum open position, this movement, in which at the same time the pawl piece 7 engaging with the arm 7 "in the toothed belt 16 until touching the Stop 10 rotated about the articulation axis 8, the toothed belt 16 transported in the direction of arrow B and thus transforming the pivoting movement of the tensioning lever 4 and the pawl piece 7 into a linear translation movement of the toothed belt 16. The force transmitted to this linear movement of the belt overcomes the resistance of the spring 14 of the backstop 11, so that the passage of the toothed belt 16 with successive engagement of the toothed part 13, 13 'of the backstop 11 in successive toothed sections of the belt 16 is made possible.

Solche Schwenkbewegungen des Spannhebels 4 werden ausgeführt, bis der Schuh fest verschlossen ist, wobei durch die erfindungsgemäße Konstruktion gewahrleistet wird, daß bei der Verschiebebewegung des Riemens 16 mindestens ein Zahn je Öffnen und Schließen des Spannhebels 4 überwunden wird. Nach dem gewünschten Verschließen bringt man den Spannhebel 4 in seine vollständig geschlossene Stellung, in der einander zugeordnete Einrastmittel 6, 6', 6" ein versehentliches Öffnen des Spannhebels 4 verhindern und der Spannhebel 4 in dieser Stellung den Mechanismus gegen Eindringen von Fremdkörpern abdeckt. In einer weiteren, hier nicht gezeigten Ausführungsform, kann der Spannhebel 4 zusätzlich mittels einer in Transportrichtung B hinter dem Verschluß liegenden Klammer, die in Längsrichtung bewegbar am Zahnriemen 16 oder fest am Bodenteil 1 angebracht ist, zusätzlich gegen versehentliches Öffnen gesichert werden.Such pivoting movements of the tensioning lever 4 are carried out until the shoe is firmly closed, the construction according to the invention ensuring that at least one tooth per opening and closing of the tensioning lever 4 is overcome when the belt 16 is moved. After the desired closing, the tensioning lever 4 is brought into its completely closed position, in the associated latching means 6, 6 ', 6 "preventing the tensioning lever 4 from being opened accidentally, and the tensioning lever 4 in this position covers the mechanism against ingress of foreign bodies a further embodiment, not shown here, the tensioning lever 4 can additionally by means of a clamp lying behind the closure in the transport direction B, which is movable in the longitudinal direction on the toothed belt 16 or fixedly attached to the bottom part 1, additionally secured against accidental opening.

Bei der Schließbewegung des Spannhebels 4, drückt das Klinkenstück 7, auf dessen Arm 7' sich die Feder 9 befindet, mit diesem Arm auf die Rücklaufsperre 11 und überwindet den Widerstand der Feder 9, sodaß, wie in Fig. 2 zu sehen ist, eine Verdrehung des Klinkenstückes 7 um einen bestimmten Winkel bewirkt wird. Diese Drehung ermöglicht es, bei geschlossenem Hebel 4, eine bemerkenswerte Reduktion der sich zwischen dem Klinkenstück 7 und dem verzahnten Teil des Riemens 16 in Richtung des Pfeiles B bildenden Öffnung des Mechanismus zu erzielen. Das bringt den großen Vorteil mit sich, daß die Wahrscheinlichkeit des Eindringens von Fremdkörpern in den Verschließmechanismus erheblich reduziert wird.During the closing movement of the tensioning lever 4, the pawl piece 7, on the arm 7 'of which the spring 9 is located, presses with this arm onto the backstop 11 and overcomes the resistance of the spring 9, so that, as can be seen in FIG Rotation of the pawl piece 7 is effected by a certain angle. This rotation makes it possible, with the lever 4 closed, to achieve a remarkable reduction in the opening of the mechanism which forms between the pawl piece 7 and the toothed part of the belt 16 in the direction of arrow B. This has the great advantage that the likelihood of foreign bodies entering the closing mechanism is considerably reduced.

Zum Nachlassen oder Öffnen des Verschlusses öffnet man den Spannhebel 4 und drückt den Arm 15 der Rücklaufsperre 11 in Richtung Basis des Bodenteils 1, wodurch die eingerasteten Nasen 13, 13' der Sperre 11 von den in der Nähe der Rücklaufsperre liegenden Zähnen des Zahnriemens 16 getrennt werden. Durch das Öffnen des Spannhebels 4 wird der Spannmechanismus etwas aktiviert, das heißt, durch ein Eingreifen des Klinkenstückes 7 in den Zahnriemen 16 wird eine teilweise Entlastung der Rücklaufsperre 11 erzielt und somit der Trennvorgang der korrespondierenden Verzahnungen erleichtert. Dies bedeutet vor allem in Hinblick darauf, daß der Verschluß vielseitig und unter verschiedensten äußeren Bedingungen, wie z.B. Schnee, Schmutz, Nässe, Kälte eingesetzt wird, einen erheblichen Vorteil, denn dadurch wird eine unter solchen Bedingungen leicht mögliche Beschädigung der entsprechenden Verzahnungen vermieden, wodurch dem Verschluß eine lange Lebensdauer garantiert wird. In einer anderen Ausführungsform kann der Spannhebel 4 eine in Fig. 3 zu sehende Ausnehmung 4"' aufweisen, die den Zugang zum Lösen der Rücklaufsperre 11 ohne Öffnen des Spannhebels 4 gestattet. Bei einer solchen Ausführungsform kann das Klinkenstück 7 einarmig in Richtung Arbeitsbereich und die Feder 9 als Spiralfeder um die Achse 8 ausgebildet sein, womit wieder die erfindungsgemäße Wirkungsweise erreicht wird.To release or open the closure, one opens the tensioning lever 4 and presses the arm 15 of the backstop 11 in the direction of the base of the base part 1, whereby the latched lugs 13, 13 'of the lock 11 are separated from the teeth of the toothed belt 16 lying near the backstop will. By opening the tensioning lever 4, the tensioning mechanism is activated somewhat, that is, by engaging the pawl piece 7 in the toothed belt 16, a partial relief of the backstop 11 is achieved and thus the separation process of the corresponding toothing is facilitated. This means above all in view of the fact that the closure is versatile and under a wide variety of external conditions, e.g. Snow, dirt, wet, cold is used, a considerable advantage, because it avoids possible damage to the corresponding gears under such conditions, which guarantees a long service life of the closure. In another embodiment, the tensioning lever 4 can have a recess 4 ″ 'shown in FIG. 3, which allows access to release the backstop 11 without opening the tensioning lever 4. In such an embodiment, the pawl piece 7 can have one arm in the direction of the work area and the Spring 9 can be designed as a spiral spring around the axis 8, which again achieves the mode of operation according to the invention.

Um ein Zurückspringen des in den Zahnriemen 16 eingreifenden Klinkenstückes 7 nach jeder Schwenkbewegung des Spannhebels 4 in seine ursprüngliche Lage vor dem Spannzyklus und einen besseren Eingriff des Armes 7" in die Zähne des Zahnriemens 16 zu ermöglichen, ist in dem in Transportrichtung B vor und/oder nach dem Spannhebel liegenden Basisteil des Bodenteils 1 ein Vorsprung 2 ausgebildet, über den der Zahnriemen 16 so gleitet, daß zwischen dem Bodenteil 1 und dem Riemen 16 ein Zwischenraum zum Zurückspringen der Nocke des Klinkenstückes durch Biegung des Zahnriemens 16, sowie zum Gewährleisten eines formschlüssigen Eingriffs des Klinkenstückarmes 7" in den Zahnriemen 16 erzeugt wird, ohne daß der Riemen beim Betätigen des Klinkenstückes 7 beschädigt wird. Das Zurückspringen des Klinkenstückes nach dem Ende jedes Spannzyklus wird durch die Feder 9 unterstützt bzw. beschleunigt. Durch diese erfindungsgemäße Wirkungsweise wird eine möglichst lange Eingreifstrecke des Klinkenstückes in den Zahnriemen und somit ein maximaler Transportweg je Spannzyklus ermöglicht.In order to allow the pawl piece 7 engaging in the toothed belt 16 after each pivoting movement of the tensioning lever 4 into its original position before the tensioning cycle and to allow the arm 7 ″ to better engage in the teeth of the toothed belt 16, in the transport direction B in front of and / or after the tensioning lever base part of the base part 1, a projection 2 is formed, over which the toothed belt 16 slides so that between the base part 1 and the belt 16 there is a space for the cam piece of the pawl piece to spring back by bending the toothed belt 16, and to ensure a positive fit Engagement of the pawl arm 7 "in the toothed belt 16 is generated without the belt being damaged when the pawl piece 7 is actuated. The Spring back of the pawl piece after the end of each tensioning cycle is supported or accelerated by the spring 9. As a result of this mode of operation according to the invention, the length of engagement of the pawl piece in the toothed belt is as long as possible and thus a maximum transport distance per tensioning cycle.
