Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protective footwear technology, and in particular to a motorcycle boot. Background Technology

[0002] In cycling, motorcycle boots serve as crucial safety equipment, providing effective protection for the rider's feet, ankles, and tibia, while also ensuring joint flexibility during riding. Current motorcycle boot designs generally suffer from the following problems: Firstly, traditional shin guards often use a fixed connection to the boot shaft, providing basic protection but severely restricting ankle movement. During high-frequency foot movements such as shifting gears and braking, the rigidity of the protective structure can easily lead to ankle fatigue, potentially affecting operational accuracy and reducing comfort over time. Secondly, the lateral support structures on both sides of the ankle are flawed. Existing boots provide insufficient lateral support, making the ankle prone to excessive inversion or eversion under lateral force during rides in complex conditions or sudden collisions, potentially leading to ligament strains or even bone damage, thus necessitating improved safety.

[0003] In conclusion, how to ensure high-intensity protection for critical areas such as the shin and ankle while also considering joint mobility, wearing comfort, and convenience has become a technical challenge to be solved in the design of existing motorcycle boots. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model proposes a motorcycle boot to solve the above problems.

[0005] This application proposes a motorcycle boot, including a boot sole and a boot shaft extending upward from the boot sole. The boot sole and the front connection of the boot shaft are provided with longitudinal accordion-shaped elastic pleats. The boot shaft is also covered by a shin guard block. The shin guard block includes a protective part and a pair of connecting parts. The protective part extends to the rear of the left and right sides based on the front of the boot shaft. The connecting parts extend downward from the bottom edge of the protective part and are rotatably connected to the sides of the boot shaft.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the accordion-shaped elastic pleats provide a certain amount of forward and backward movement space for the user's ankle. Furthermore, the shin guard provides protection for the user's shinbone. The protective part of the shin guard can wrap around the front and left and right sides of the shinbone, providing all-round protection for the user's shinbone in the event of frontal or lateral collisions. At the same time, by using the rotating connection between the connecting part and the two sides of the boot shaft, the protective part can move synchronously when the user's ankle moves forward and backward, avoiding the fixed protective part restricting the movement of the ankle and affecting comfort.

[0007] In some specific embodiments, the protective part covers half the width of each side of the boot shaft, and the connecting part is located on the left and right sides of the boot shaft and extends downward to the ankle. While ensuring the protective effect on the left and right sides of the shinbone, it avoids the protective part being too wide, which would affect the overall fit of the boot shaft and the user's flexibility when wearing it. The position of the connecting part makes the rotation connection point of the protective part closer to the actual ankle movement area, which provides sufficient protection while ensuring flexibility and comfort when wearing it.

[0008] In some specific embodiments, a pair of movable buckles are also included. The movable buckles are placed on the inside of the boot shaft at the ankle, and after penetrating the boot shaft, they are rotatably connected to the inner surface of the connecting part. The position of the movable buckles makes the rotatable connection point between the connecting part and the boot shaft closer to the actual center of motion of the ankle. Using the movable buckles to connect the connecting part to the boot shaft makes the movement of the protective part more flexible. At the same time, the movable buckles are hidden inside the boot shaft to avoid affecting the protective integrity of the outside of the ankle.

[0009] In some specific embodiments, the protective part is located above the elastic pleat, and there is a gap between the connecting parts on the left and right sides that is adapted to the width of the elastic pleat, so as to avoid obstructing or squeezing the active area of ​​the elastic pleat, and to ensure that the elastic pleat can freely expand or contract with the forward and backward movement of the ankle, thereby continuously providing sufficient space for the ankle to move.

[0010] In some specific embodiments, ankle support blocks are also included that cover both sides of the boot sole. The ankle support blocks extend upward to the ankle of the boot shaft and form a triangular covering area from the bottom edge of the boot sole upward. By utilizing the covering area of ​​the ankle support blocks, the support strength on both sides of the ankle is effectively enhanced, reducing excessive inversion or eversion of the ankle due to lateral force during cycling, and improving the stability of the ankle in complex movement states.

[0011] In some specific embodiments, a zipper is also included, which is located on the central axis of the back of the boot shaft and extends vertically downward from the top of the boot shaft to the upper part of the sole. The zipper covers the main area from the boot shaft to the upper part of the sole, making it easy for users to put on and take off quickly, especially suitable for the convenient dressing needs before cycling.

[0012] In some specific embodiments, the upper rear side of the boot shaft is longitudinally divided into a first leg circumference adjustment section and a second leg circumference adjustment section near the zipper. The first leg circumference adjustment section is engaged with the surface of the second leg circumference adjustment section by Velcro. The quick-fitting and separating characteristics of Velcro facilitate the adjustment of tightness when putting on and taking off the boot, and can also dynamically adjust the tightness of the leg wrap according to actual needs during riding, avoiding the impact of excessively loose or tight wrap on safety and comfort.

[0013] In some specific embodiments, an inner boot is also included. The portion of the inner boot above the ankle is a front-to-back opening and closing structure. The outer periphery of the inner boot is also provided with a drawstring for adjusting the tightness at the ankle position. The opening and closing structure of the inner boot allows for quick insertion or removal during wear, improving the ease of wearing. The drawstring can be used to further adjust the tightness of the wrap around the ankle, improving the stability of wearing.

[0014] In some specific embodiments, the inner surface of the inner boot is also sewn with an elastic knitted layer. The elastic knitted layer can closely fit the user's leg surface, effectively reducing friction between the inside of the boot and the leg during cycling and improving comfort during long-term wear.

[0015] In some specific embodiments, metal protective components can be detachably installed at the toe, heel, and one ankle of the boot sole. These metal protective components provide high-strength impact protection for critical areas that are susceptible to impact during cycling.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0017] The motorcycle boot of this application combines high protective strength with wearing flexibility. It uses accordion-shaped elastic pleats to provide room for ankle movement, and is equipped with a rotatable shin guard to provide dynamic protection for the front and sides of the shin, resisting impact without restricting joint movement. The ankle fixation block and detachable metal protective parts enhance the support and impact resistance of key parts. Combined with a flexible connection structure and adjustment design, it ensures high protective strength while ensuring ankle freedom of movement and wearing comfort, achieving a balance between safety protection and sports flexibility.

In this regard, directional terms such as “top,” “bottom,” “left,” “right,” “up,” “down,” etc., are used with reference to the orientation of the described figures. Because components of the embodiments can be positioned in several different orientations, directional terms are used for illustrative purposes and are by no means limiting. It should be understood that other embodiments may be utilized or logical changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description should not be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.

[0027] This application proposes a motorcycle boot. Figure 1 A perspective view of the front of a motorcycle boot according to an embodiment of this application is shown, as follows. Figure 1 As shown, the motorcycle boot includes a boot sole 01 and a boot shaft 02 extending upward from the boot sole 01. The front connection between the boot sole 01 and the boot shaft 02 is provided with longitudinal accordion-shaped elastic pleats 03. It also includes a shin guard block 04 wrapped around the boot shaft 02. The shin guard block 04 includes a protective part 05 and a pair of connecting parts 06. The protective part 05 extends to the rear of the left and right sides with the front of the boot shaft 02 as a reference. The connecting parts 06 extend downward from the bottom edge of the protective part 05 and are rotatably connected to the two sides of the boot shaft 02.

[0028] Specifically, the accordion-shaped elastic pleats 03 provide a certain amount of forward and backward movement space for the user's ankle. The shin guard block 04 protects the user's shinbone. The protective part 05 of the shin guard block 04 can wrap around the front and left and right sides of the shinbone, providing all-round protection for the user's shinbone in the event of frontal or lateral collisions. At the same time, the connecting part 06 is rotatably connected to both sides of the boot shaft 02, so that the protective part 05 can move synchronously when the user's ankle moves forward and backward, avoiding the fixed protective part 05 restricting the movement of the ankle and affecting comfort.

[0029] Specifically, the protective part 05 covers half the width of each side of the boot shaft 02, and the connecting part 06 is located on the left and right sides of the boot shaft 02 and extends downward to the ankle. The protective part 05 can completely cover the front of the boot shaft 02, effectively resisting frontal impacts. At the same time, the protective part 05 only covers half the width of the side of the boot shaft 02, which can resist a certain degree of side impacts. It can also prevent the protective part 05 from being too wide, affecting the overall fit of the boot shaft 02 and the user's flexibility when wearing it.

[0030] Specifically, it also includes ankle support blocks 07 covering both sides of the boot sole 01. In the figure, the ankle support block 07 is only shown on one side of the boot sole 01. In fact, ankle support blocks 07 are provided on both sides of the boot sole 01. The ankle support block 07 extends upward to the ankle of the boot shaft 02 and forms a triangular covering area from the bottom edge of the boot sole 01 upward. The covering area of ​​the ankle support block 07, combined with the covering area of ​​the shin guard block 04, provides sufficient protection area during use, effectively resists impacts from the front and sides, and enhances the support strength on both sides of the ankle, reducing excessive inward or outward pronation of the ankle due to lateral force during riding.

[0031] Furthermore, both the shin guard block 04 and the ankle fixation block 07 are made of TPU material.

[0032] Figure 2 A front view of a motorcycle boot according to a specific embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the back of a motorcycle boot according to a specific embodiment of this application is shown, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, the protective part 05 is located above the elastic pleat 03, and there is a gap between the connecting parts 06 on the left and right sides that is adapted to the width of the elastic pleat 03. When the user's leg moves back and forth around the ankle, the elastic pleat 03 will expand or contract. If there is no gap between the connecting parts 06, it will affect the movement of the ankle. The gap setting can continuously provide sufficient movement space for the ankle.

[0033] Specifically, it also includes a zipper 08, which is located on the central axis of the back of the boot shaft 02 and extends vertically downward from the top of the boot shaft 02 to the upper part of the sole 01. The zipper 08 has a zipper head, which allows the user to quickly open and close the zipper 08. When in use, pull down the zipper 08 and push the shin guard 04 forward, and the user's foot can easily be put into the motorcycle boot. When the user releases the zipper, the shin guard 04 will automatically return to its original position and wrap around the user's shin. At this time, pulling up the zipper 08 completes the wearing process. The zipper 08 covers the main area from the boot shaft 02 to the upper part of the sole 01, making it easy for the user to put on and take off quickly, especially suitable for the convenient dressing needs before riding.

[0034] Specifically, metal protective parts 09 can be detachably installed at the toe, heel, and one ankle of the boot sole 01. The metal protective part 09 at the ankle is located on the outer ankle. Users can install, remove, or replace the metal protective parts 09 in different locations as needed. Specifically, the metal protective part 09 is made of magnesium metal, which has high impact resistance and provides high-strength impact protection for the user's toes, heels, and ankles during cycling.

[0035] Furthermore, the connecting part 06 is located above the ankle fixing block 07, and the metal protective piece 09 at the ankle is installed on the outside of the ankle fixing block 07.

[0036] Figure 4 A perspective view of the rear of a motorcycle boot according to a specific embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 5 An exploded view of a motorcycle boot structure according to a specific embodiment of this application is shown, as follows: Figure 1-5 As shown, it also includes a pair of movable buckles 10 disposed on both sides of the boot shaft 02. The movable buckles 10 are placed on the inner side of the boot shaft 02 at the ankle, and the movable buckles 10 are rotatably connected to the inner surface of the connecting part 06 after penetrating the boot shaft 02.

[0037] Specifically, the upper rear side of the boot shaft 02 is provided with a first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and a second leg circumference adjustment part 12. In a specific embodiment, the upper rear side of the boot shaft 02 is longitudinally divided into the first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment part 12 near the zipper 08. The first leg circumference adjustment part 11 is engaged with the surface of the second leg circumference adjustment part 12 via Velcro. The first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment part 12 are provided on both the left and right sides of the zipper 08. Before wearing, pull down the zipper 08, and... After releasing the Velcro fasteners on the first leg circumference adjustment section 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment section 12 on both sides, the user inserts their foot and pulls up the zipper 08. By adjusting the position of the Velcro fasteners, the leg size of the boot shaft 02 can be adjusted. Once the size is adjusted to a suitable level, no further adjustment is needed for the next wear. The quick fastening and disengagement of the Velcro fasteners facilitates the adjustment of tightness when putting on and taking off the boots, and allows for dynamic adjustment of the tightness of the leg wrapping according to actual needs during riding, avoiding excessively loose or tight wrapping that could affect safety and comfort.

[0038] The figure only shows the first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment part 12 on one side. In specific applications, the first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment part 12 are provided on both sides of the boot shaft 02.

[0039] Specifically, it also includes an inner boot (not shown in the figure). The inner boot is sewn inside the boot shaft 02. The part of the inner boot above the ankle has a front and back opening structure. The outer periphery of the inner boot is also equipped with a drawstring for adjusting the tightness at the ankle position. Before wearing, unzip 08 and release the Velcro fasteners of the first leg circumference adjustment part 11 and the second leg circumference adjustment part 12. Open the upper part of the inner boot in the front and back direction to make it easier for the foot to put on. After putting it on, adjust the tightness of the inner boot by using the drawstring to further improve the wrapping of the ankle. Then, pull up 08 normally and adjust the Velcro to complete the wearing. The opening and closing structure of the inner boot allows for quick putting on or taking off during the wearing process, improving the convenience of wearing. The drawstring can be used to further adjust the tightness of the wrapping at the ankle to improve the wearing stability.

[0040] Specifically, the inner surface of the inner boot is also sewn with an elastic knitted layer. The elastic knitted layer can closely fit the user's leg surface, effectively reducing friction between the inside of the boot and the leg during cycling and improving comfort during long-term wear.
