Turning fastener for a shoe
Abstract
A turning fastener for a shoe has a pulling means with two end portions, which act on a take-up reel, which is provided with an annular groove for receiving the pulling means, a rotatable mounting of the take-up reel with a bearing journal, which engages in a bearing, a holder, which can be fastened to the shoe, for the rotatable mounting, and an engageable and disengageable directional locking mechanism, which in the engaged position blocks the take-up reel in one direction of rotation for closing the shoe and in the disengaged position releases it in this direction of rotation. The take-up reel is formed as a rotary grip, wherein two through-openings, extending from the annular groove to the end face of the take-up reel that is facing away from the holder, are provided for leading one or the other end portion of the pulling means through. The take-up reel is guided in an axially displaceable manner with the bearing journal and the bearing, and the directional locking mechanism is engaged in the position of the take-up reel in which it is pushed towards the holder and is disengaged in the position in which it is pushed away from the holder.
Claims

4 . Turning fastener according to claim 2 , characterized in that the bearing journal ( 12 ) and the axial bore ( 14 ) of the wind-up spool ( 13 ) taper towards their end facing away from the support ( 10 )
5 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the ring groove ( 16 ) of the windup spool ( 13 ) at its groove ground ( 23 ) has a diameter (F), which is at least by a third smaller than the outside diameter (B) of the wind-up spool ( 13 ).
6 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the cross section of the ring groove ( 16 ) of the wind-up spool ( 13 ) tapers to the groove ground ( 23 ).
7 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the two through openings ( 17 , 18 ) are disposed diametrally opposing each other.
8 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the two through openings ( 17 , 18 ) extend to the groove ground ( 23 ) of the ring groove ( 16 ).
9 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the two pulling means end portions ( 6 a , 6 b ) guided by the through openings ( 17 , 18 ) in the wind-up spool ( 13 ) are connected to each other at their ends.
10 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the directional ratchet mechanism is formed by a pawl ratchet mechanism with at least one pawl.
11 . Turning fastener according to claim 10 , characterized in that the at least one pawl is provided at the wind-up spool ( 13 ) or the support ( 10 ) and the recesses, in which the pawl engages, are provided at the support ( 10 ) or the wind-up spool ( 13 ).
12 . Turning fastener according to claim 11 , characterized in that the recesses are formed by a pawl toothing ( 22 , 25 ).
13 . Turning fastener according to claim 10 , characterized in that the pawl is formed by an elastic tongue ( 21 , 27 ).
14 . Turning fastener according to claim 11 , characterized in that the recesses and/or the tongue ( 21 , 27 ) are integrally formed with the wind-up spool ( 13 ) or the support ( 10 ).
15 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the bearing journal ( 12 ) is integrally formed with the support ( 10 ) or the wind-up spool ( 13 ).
16 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the support ( 10 ) is formed by a holding plate ( 9 ) mountable at the shoe.
17 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the pulling means ( 6 ) is formed by a lace.
18 . Turning fastener according to claim 1 , characterized in that the support ( 10 ) is mounted at the shoe tongue ( 8 ).
19 . Turning fastener according to claim 18 , characterized in that the pulling means ( 6 ) is guided on the two sides of the shoe tongue ( 8 ) via diverters ( 4 , 5 ) at the shoe ( 1 ) and the wind-up spool ( 13 ), when pushed to the support ( 10 ) in the engaged position, in relation to the two adjoining diverters ( 4 , 5 ) on both sides of the shoe tongue ( 8 ) is disposed offset to the front, so that when the pulling means ( 6 ) is tensed the wind-up spool ( 13 ) is pulled against the support ( 10 ).Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
