Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet une chaussure, notamment chaussure de sport, telle que chaussure de randonnée, munie de moyens de drainage et d'évacuation de l'humidité.The subject of the present invention is a shoe, in particular a sports shoe, such as a hiking shoe, provided with means of drainage and evacuation of humidity.
Le problème de ventilation de l'intérieur d'une chaussure et de l'évacuation de l'air est un problème qui se pose depuis longtemps et n'a jamais été résolu de manière totalement satisfaisante.The problem of ventilation of the inside of a shoe and the evacuation of air is a long-standing problem that has never been resolved in a way totally satisfactory.
Ainsi, la chaussure d'alpinisme connue sous la dénomination commerciale "CLIMA-COMPREX" de Koflach comporte une enveloppe externe étanche et un chausson intérieur muni sur sa paroi externe de canaux longitudinaux communiquant avec des trous traversants dudit chausson et destinés à l'évacuation de l'air chargé d'humidité.So the mountaineering shoe known under the trade name "CLIMA-COMPREX" by Koflach has a waterproof outer shell and a inner liner provided with longitudinal channels on its outer wall communicating with through holes of said liner and intended for evacuation humidity laden air.
Le problème d'une telle chaussure est que le débit d'évacuation d'air est très limité et que par conséquent l'aération reste insuffisante pour éliminer l'humidité. Par ailleurs, l'éloignement du pied de la paroi extérieure du chausson provoque des problèmes de condensation, d'autant plus que l'enveloppe extérieure est exposée au froid.The problem with such a shoe is that the air discharge rate is very limited and therefore ventilation is insufficient to remove moisture. Through elsewhere, the distance of the foot from the outer wall of the boot causes condensation problems, especially since the outer casing is exposed to cold.
Différentes constructions ont également été essayées avec des matériaux dits "imper-respirants", c'est-à-dire des matériaux perméables à la vapeur d'eau mais imperméables à l'eau. Les constructions permettent certes une excellente étanchéité vis à vis de l'extérieur mais présentent l'inconvénient d'une respirabilité ou évacuation d'air humide insuffisante.Different constructions have also been tried with so-called materials "waterproof-breathable", that is to say materials permeable to water vapor but waterproof. The constructions certainly allow an excellent seal vis-à-vis the outside but have the drawback of breathability or insufficient humid air evacuation.
En effet, les matériaux ou membranes dits "imper-respirants" fournissent une respirabilité malgré tout réduite et ne couvrant en fait que 10 % des besoins d'évacuation en humidité du pied.Indeed, the so-called "waterproof-breathable" materials or membranes provide a breathability despite everything reduced and in fact covering only 10% of the needs moisture evacuation of the foot.
Plus récemment, et ainsi que le montrent les figures 1 et 2, la société Boréal a mis
au point une chaussure de montagne constituée d'une tige externe 1 en cuir et d'une
doublure 2 en forme de chausson, destinée à évacuer l'humidité et constituée d'une
partie inférieure 21 entourant la partie pied proprement dite et d'une partie
supérieure 22 entourant la partie cheville.More recently, and as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the company Boréal has put
developed a mountain shoe consisting of an outer upper 1 in leather and a
liner-
Comme montré plus en détail sur la figure 1A, la partie inférieure 21 de la doublure 2 est en un matériau multicouche comportant, depuis l'intérieur vers l'extérieur :
- un tissu tridimensionnel 25,
- une membrane "imper-respirante", du type connu sous la dénomination commerciale "Sympatex", collée sur une couche textile de protection 26 (résistance à l'abrasion),
- une couche de cuir constituant la tige externe 1.
- a three-
dimensional fabric 25, - a "waterproof-breathable" membrane, of the type known under the trade name "Sympatex", bonded to a protective textile layer 26 (abrasion resistance),
- a layer of leather constituting the outer upper 1.
La partie supérieure 22 de la doublure est constituée d'une couche de cuir 27 et de
mousse 28.The
Les deux parties 21-22 sont reliées par une couture périphérique haute 23, de
même une couture périphérique basse 24 réalise l'assemblage de la partie inférieure
21 du chausson.The two parts 21-22 are connected by a high

de la vapeur d'eau vers l'extérieur en direction transversale et verticale.The use of three-

De ce fait, la transpiration peut seulement être évacuée en direction transversale
dans la partie inférieure 21 de la doublure, à travers la membrane "imper-respirante"
26 et la paroi externe en cuir de la tige externe 1.Therefore, perspiration can only be evacuated in a transverse direction
in the
Or, comme indiqué précédemment, les matériaux "imper-respirants" ne permettent pas une évacuation suffisante de l'humidité et l'effet obtenu n'est donc pas satisfaisant.However, as indicated above, "waterproof-breathable" materials do not do not allow sufficient moisture to escape and the effect obtained is therefore not satisfying.
Le but de la présente invention est donc de remédier à ces inconvénients et de fournir une construction de chaussure améliorée et permettant une meilleure évacuation de l'humidité produite par la transpiration.The object of the present invention is therefore to remedy these drawbacks and to provide improved shoe construction and allow better evacuation of moisture produced by perspiration.
Ce but est atteint dans la chaussure selon l'invention qui est du type constituée d'une tige externe et d'une doublure interne, par le fait que la doublure interne est constituée d'un tissu complexé comportant deux faces textiles parallèles reliées ensemble par une couche de fils s'étendant essentiellement perpendiculairement au plan constitué par chacune des deux faces textiles, et définissant un espace compressible entre ces deux faces textiles, par le fait qu'elle s'étend depuis le bas jusqu'à l'extrémité supérieure de la tige externe, et qu'elle n'est reliée à la tige externe que par une couture périphérique haute.This object is achieved in the shoe according to the invention which is of the type constituted an external rod and an internal lining, by the fact that the internal lining is made of a complexed fabric comprising two parallel textile faces connected together by a layer of wires extending essentially perpendicular to the plane constituted by each of the two textile faces, and defining a space compressible between these two textile faces, by the fact that it extends from the bottom to the upper end of the outer rod, and that it is not connected to the outer rod only by a high peripheral seam.
Le tissu complexé, plus connu sous la dénomination tissu tridimensionnel, définit une couche d'air entourant le pied sur toute la surface de la chaussure et monte jusqu'en haut de la tige de la chaussure, permettant ainsi une évacuation optimale de l'air humide depuis le pied jusqu'en haut de la chaussure, et ce par l'intermédiaire d'une surface d'échange maximale.Complexed tissue, better known as three-dimensional tissue, defines a layer of air surrounding the foot over the entire surface of the shoe and rises to the top of the shoe upper, thus allowing optimal evacuation of moist air from the foot to the top of the shoe, and this through maximum exchange area.
Une telle construction résout le problème de surface d'échange trop limitée comme dans le cas des constructions employant une couche "imper-respirante" ou des systèmes de canaux et de trous traversants décrits précédemment.Such a construction solves the problem of too limited exchange surface as in the case of constructions using a "waterproof-breathable" layer or channel and through hole systems described above.
De plus, l'assemblage de la doublure à la tige externe par une seule couture périphérique haute garantit que l'air humide peut être évacué dans une direction essentiellement verticale, c'est-à-dire du bas jusqu'en haut de la chaussure.In addition, the assembly of the lining to the outer rod by a single seam high device ensures that humid air can be exhausted in one direction essentially vertical, that is to say from the bottom to the top of the shoe.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, la doublure interne forme un chausson assemblé par une seule couture longitudinale médiane. Cette construction garantit également une bonne circulation de l'air humide puisque celui-ci peut être évacué depuis la couture médiane de la semelle vers les côtés du chausson.According to an advantageous embodiment, the internal lining forms a slipper joined by a single median longitudinal seam. This construction guarantees also good circulation of humid air since it can be exhausted from the middle seam of the sole to the sides of the liner.
De toute façon, l'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres caractéristiques de
celle-ci seront mises en évidence à l'aide de la description qui suit en référence au
dessin schématique annexé.
Ainsi que le montrent notamment les figures 3 et 4, la chaussure 100 selon
l'invention est constituée d'une tige externe 110, d'une semelle 101 et d'une doublure
intérieure en forme de chausson 120.As shown in particular in Figures 3 and 4, the
Contrairement au chausson 2 de l'art antérieur connu, le chausson 120 selon
l'invention présente une structure continue depuis le bas, c'est-à-dire sa semelle 121
jusqu'à son extrémité supérieure 122.Unlike
Comme montré en figure 3A, le chausson 120 est constitué d'un tissu complexé
tridimensionnel, à savoir : deux faces ou nappes textiles parallèles respectivement
interne 124 et externe 126, ces deux faces 124 et 126 étant reliées ensemble par une
couche de fils 125 s'étendant essentiellement perpendiculairement au plan constitué
par chacune de ces faces et définissant un espace d'air compressible élastiquement
entre ces deux faces 124, 126. Un tel tissu tridimensionnel est généralement constitué
au cours d'une même étape de fabrication. Il peut également être constitué à l'aide de
deux nappes textiles réalisées indépendamment l'une de l'autre et reliées ensuite par
une couche aérée selon son épaisseur. Les deux faces 124, 126, sont de préférence
constituées par des nappes de jersey, elles peuvent également être constituées par
des nappes de fils tissés ou non tissés.As shown in FIG. 3A, the
Dans tous les cas, les matériaux constituant le tissu tridimensionnel sont de préférence des matériaux synthétiques hydrophobes.In all cases, the materials constituting the three-dimensional fabric are of preferably hydrophobic synthetic materials.
De préférence, la face interne 124, située le plus près du pied de l'utilisateur, est
formée par un jersey à larges mailles destiné à permettre une évacuation optimale en
direction radiale (c'est-à-dire sensiblement perpendiculairement au plan de ladite
couche 124) de la transpiration générée par le pied. Preferably, the
La face externe 126 est de préférence, quoique non nécessairement, associée à une
couche supplémentaire 127 munie d'une membrane "imper-respirante" (cf. figure 3C)
telle que celles connues sous les dénominations commerciales "Gore Tex",
"Sympatex" ou "Clima Dry".The
Dans ce cas, la couche supplémentaire 127 est de préférence constituée par un tissu
à mailles serrées pour former un support efficace à ladite membrane et la protéger
contre l'abrasion.In this case, the
Comme montré sur la figure 4 le chausson 120 est constitué à partir de deux pièces
découpées de tissu complexé, assemblées le long d'une seule couture longitudinale
123 disposée sensiblement selon un plan longitudinal médian dudit chausson 120.As shown in Figure 4 the
De ce fait, la transpiration émise par le pied peut circuler librement depuis la
semelle 121 de la doublure, de part et d'autre de la couture longitudinale 123, et
remonter le long des parois verticales de la doublure, sans être arrêtée par des
coutures horizontales (comme les coutures 23 du chausson de la figure 2), jusqu'à
l'extrémité supérieure 122 de ladite doublure comme montré par les flèches V.Therefore, the perspiration emitted by the foot can circulate freely from the
sole 121 of the lining, on either side of the
De ce fait, toute la surface de la doublure 120 peut servir à évacuer, par effet de
convection, l'humidité résultant de la transpiration du bas vers le haut, par une
circulation verticale de l'air chaud humide à travers la couche d'air définie par la
couche 125.Therefore, the entire surface of the lining 120 can be used to evacuate, by effect of
convection, the humidity resulting from perspiration from the bottom to the top, by a
vertical circulation of hot humid air through the air layer defined by the
Comme l'évacuation de l'humidité s'effectue essentiellement dans une direction
longitudinale, c'est-à-dire dans le plan ou l'épaisseur du matériau constituant la
doublure, par contraste avec une évacuation en direction radiale à travers la paroi du
matériau comme dans le cas de la chaussure connue des figures 1 et 2, l'adjonction
d'une couche 127 avec membrane "imper-respirante" ne gène pas l'évacuation de
l'humidité et permet de plus d'obtenir l'étanchéité souhaitée pour une construction
réellement "respiro étanche".As the evacuation of moisture takes place essentially in one direction
longitudinal, i.e. in the plane or thickness of the material constituting the
lining, in contrast to an evacuation in a radial direction through the wall of the
material as in the case of the shoe known from FIGS. 1 and 2, the addition
a
Ainsi que le montre la figure 3A, la doublure 120 est reliée à son extrémité
supérieure 122 - bord à bord - à la tige externe 120 par une couture périphérique 123
qui est ensuite retournée, cette couture 123 ne gène donc pas la circulation d'air
humide jusque vers l'extrémité supérieure 122 de la doublure.As shown in Figure 3A, the
Une couture 130 "traversante" peut être également prévue entre la doublure 120 et
la tige 110 externe de façon à définir un bourrelet de confort à l'arrière de la
chaussure. Dans la mesure où cette couture 130 ne s'étend que sur une partie du
périmètre de l'extrémité supérieure 122 de la doublure, elle ne gène pas outre mesure
l'évacuation de la transpiration vers le haut.A "through"
La tige 110 est de préférence constituée d'un matériau respirant tel que du cuir
111, associé à un matériau de confort tel que de la mousse 112. Bien entendu, tous
types de matériaux, y compris des matériaux étanches, peuvent être utilisés pour
tout ou partie de la tige. The
On notera que la structure tridimensionnelle de la doublure permet également de
limiter la quantité et l'épaisseur de mousses de confort 112 pour la tige, puisque la
couche d'air définie par la structure tridimensionnelle apporte elle-même un certain
confort.Note that the three-dimensional structure of the lining also allows
limit the quantity and thickness of
La circulation de l'air V décrite ci-avant s'effectue notamment par effet de pompage (contraction/extension des matériaux) liés avec déformations de la chaussure lors de la marche.The air circulation V described above takes place in particular by the effect of pumping (contraction / extension of materials) linked with deformations of the shoe when walking.
De façon surprenante l'effet de circulation et d'évacuation d'air humide par la construction de doublure décrite ci-avant est extrêmement intéressant pour les raisons suivantes:
- l'air humide reste à l'état gazeux dans la doublure car il reste très proche du pied, lui-même chaud, et ne se condense donc pas comme dans les structures de chausson avec canaux de ventilation prévus à l'extrémité dudit chausson,
- le tissu tridimensionnel capte l'humidité par capillarité de sa face interne en contact avec la chaussette ou le pied de l'utilisateur et l'évacue, de sorte que l'humidité restant au contact du pied est quasi nulle.
- the humid air remains in the gaseous state in the lining because it remains very close to the foot, which is itself hot, and therefore does not condense as in liner structures with ventilation channels provided at the end of said liner,
- the three-dimensional fabric captures moisture by capillarity of its internal face in contact with the sock or the foot of the user and discharges it, so that the moisture remaining in contact with the foot is almost zero.
Par ailleurs, cette construction offre d'autres avantages:
- comme indiqué précédemment, le tissu tridimensionnel participe au confort par sa couche interne élastique qui peut se déformer ponctuellement et élastiquement en cas de compression. Par ailleurs, cette couche élastique revient toujours en position initiale et ne se tasse donc pas comme les mousses usuelles,
- la couche d'air stockée dans le tissu tridimensionnel renforce l'isolation thermique de la chaussure et permet donc de supprimer des épaisseurs de mousse prévues à cet effet. A confort thermique égal, la chaussure comporte donc moins de mousses qui sont susceptibles de stocker l'humidité et qui augmentent son poids,
- la doublure en tissu tridimensionnel sèche beaucoup plus rapidement que les doublures traditionnelles du fait de sa constitution à partir de matériaux hydrophobes et également de sa surface d'échange importante.
- as indicated above, the three-dimensional fabric contributes to comfort by its elastic internal layer which can deform punctually and elastically in the event of compression. Furthermore, this elastic layer always returns to the initial position and therefore does not settle like the usual foams,
- the layer of air stored in the three-dimensional fabric reinforces the thermal insulation of the shoe and therefore makes it possible to remove the thicknesses of foam provided for this purpose. With equal thermal comfort, the shoe therefore has fewer foams which are capable of storing moisture and which increase its weight,
- the three-dimensional fabric lining dries much faster than traditional linings due to its constitution from hydrophobic materials and also its large exchange surface.
Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit ci-avant à titre d'exemple non limitatif mais en englobe tous les modes de réalisation similaires ou équivalents.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above by way of nonlimiting example but encompasses all the embodiments thereof similar or equivalent.
Elle n'est notamment pas limitée à une application à une doublure de type chausson, c'est-à-dire comportant une semelle, et peut fort bien fonctionner efficacement avec des portions de doublure s'étendant depuis le bas jusqu'à l'extrémité supérieure de la tige.In particular, it is not limited to an application to a type lining. liner, that is to say having a sole, and can work very well effectively with lining portions extending from the bottom to the upper end of the rod.
