Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
[0001] The present invention refers to a multifunctional Telemark boot. [0002] In general, Telemark boots of a well-known type are suitable for permitting a bending action in correspondence with an articulation of the metatarsus phalange of the foot, and comprise a containing hull for the foot, a sole which is integral with the hull, and a flexible articulation, which is part of the hull, and which is arranged substantially in correspondence with a point of the hull in order to permit the bending action of the hull itself. [0003] Telemark boots of the type which have been described above are substantially limited in terms of their use due to the fact that the flexible articulation, which is generally defined by an upper portion of the sole which is foldable like an accordion, permits a single bending action only, without taking into account any specific environmental conditions or the specific physical conformation of the person who is using the Telemark boot. [0004] The aim of the present invention is to produce a Telemark boot, which will be adaptable to different conditions of use and will also permit greater adaptability to the needs of the relevant users. [0005] According to the present invention, a Telemark boot will be produced which is suitable for permitting a bending action in correspondence with an articulation of the metatarsus phalange of the foot, the boot comprising a containing hull for the foot, and a flexible articulation which is arranged substantially in correspondence with a point of the hull in order to permit the said bending action of the hull; the boot being characterised by the fact that it comprises control means of the bending action which are associated with the hull and which are arranged in correspondence with the said flexible articulation. [0006] The present invention will now be described, with reference to the attached drawings, which illustrate an example of a non-limiting embodiment: [0007] FIG. 1 is a lateral elevation view of a preferred form of embodiment of a multifunctional Telemark boot which is produced according to the present invention; [0008] FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate, with come parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, respective alternative forms of embodiment of a detail of the Telemark boot which is shown in FIG. 1; [0009] FIG. 4 is a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a preferred form of embodiment of a detail of the Telemark boot which is shown in FIG. 1; [0010] FIG. 5 is a lateral elevation view, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a detail which is shown in FIG. 4; [0011] FIG. 6 is a lateral elevation view, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a detail of the Telemark boot which is shown in FIG. 1; [0012] FIGS. 7, 8 and 9 illustrate a perspective view, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of respective preferred forms of embodiment of a detail which is shown in FIG. 6; [0013] FIGS. 10 to 13 show a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of respective preferred forms of embodiment of a further detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; [0014] FIG. 14 is a lateral elevation view, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a preferred form of embodiment of a detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; [0015] FIG. 15 is a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of the detail which is illustrated in FIG. 14; [0016] FIG. 16 shows a lateral elevation, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a preferred form of embodiment of a further detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; [0017] FIGS. 17 to 25 illustrate a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, respective preferred forms of embodiment of the detail which is illustrated in FIG. 16; [0018] FIG. 25a shows a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity and on a reduced scale, of an alternative form of embodiment of a detail which is shown in FIG. 25; [0019] FIG. 26 shows a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a respective preferred form of embodiment of the detail which is illustrated in FIG. 16; [0020] FIG. 27 shows a lateral elevation, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a preferred form of embodiment of a further detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; [0021] FIG. 28 is a perspective view, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of the detail which is illustrated in FIG. 27; [0022] FIG. 29 shows a lateral elevation view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of a preferred form of embodiment of a further detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; [0023] FIG. 30 is a perspective view, with some parts removed for reasons of clarity, of the detail which is illustrated in FIG. 29; [0024] FIG. 31 shows a lateral elevation, with some parts in section and some parts removed for reasons of clarity, a preferred form of embodiment of a further detail of the Telemark boot which is illustrated in FIG. 1; Continue reading...
