Abstract

(57) [Summary] This bulletin contains application data before electronic filing, so abstract data is not recorded.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention relates to motorcycle boots.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional motorcycle boots have been made to be durable to protect the rider's feet and legs, and most have been waterproofed to prevent rainwater from entering on rainy days.

[Problem to be solved]

Conventional motorcycle boots are sturdy and waterproof, so if you wear them for a long time, your feet get stuffy and the boots are uncomfortable to wear.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide motorcycle boots that are robust and waterproof, yet prevent feet from getting wet.

Means for Solving Problem C) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention forms an air intake opening facing forward on both sides or one side of the cylindrical long part of the boot, and An air passage whose lower end is closed is formed extending downward through the communicating cylinder length portion, and a communication hole is formed at the lower end side of the air passage for communicating the inside of the boot with the air passage.

[Effect]

When you ride a motorcycle wearing the boots of this invention, air is rapidly taken in from the air intake while riding, and the air that hits the end of the air intake passes through the air passage extending downward and flows through the foot inside the boots from the communication hole. This will result in you being blown away.

〔Example〕

Preferred embodiments of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The boot 1 is made by integrally molding a main body part 2 that covers the foot and a tube length part 3 that covers from the shin part to the knee. Air intake ports 4 are formed on both sides of the long cylindrical portion 3 and open toward the front, that is, the position that receives wind pressure while the vehicle is running. As shown in FIG. 2, the air intake port 4 is formed so as to protrude by one thickness in the width direction. This air intake 4 is surrounded by a shell 5. The opening of this shell 5 becomes an air intake port 4, and a rib 5a is formed in this air intake port 4. The lower side of the shell 5 is connected to a cylindrical body 6, and an air passage 7 communicating with the air intake port 4 is formed within the cylindrical body 6. This cylindrical body 6 extends below the long cylindrical part of the boot,
The lower end is occluded.

A communication hole 8 is formed at the lower end side of the air passage 6 to allow communication between the inside of the boot and the air passage 6. The air entering the cell 5 from the air intake port 4 is sent in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 3, that is, it passes through the air passage 7 and is sent into the boot from the communication hole 8.

As a means for forming such an air intake mechanism, it is desirable to mold a skin member 10 as shown in FIG. 4 from a plastic material or the like separately from the cylindrical length 3 of the boot. The shell 5 and the cylindrical body 6 can be integrally molded at predetermined locations on the plastic skin member 10 by injection molding or the like.

In FIG. 4, when the shell 5 and cylindrical body 6 are viewed from inside the skin member 10, it appears that an L-shaped groove is formed therein. This skin member 10 is sewn or adhered to the tube length portion 3 of the boot.

In the embodiment described above, the cylinder body 6 extends straight downward, but the air passage 7 is curved so that the air blows over the toes, and the communication hole 8 is also formed at the toes. Of course, even if it is formed at a location where it will hit, there is no problem.

〔effect〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, an air intake opening facing forward is formed on both sides or one side of the long cylindrical part of the boot, and the lower end communicating with the air intake and extending downward through the long cylindrical part. Since a communication hole is formed at the lower end of the air passage to connect the inside of the boot and the air passage, a rider wearing these boots will feel that the air intake port is quite large when riding a motorcycle. In response to wind pressure, a large amount of air can be taken into this air intake port, and the taken in air can blow through the air passage to the desired area of the foot, preventing stuffiness of the foot. Ru. In addition, since the air intake opening faces forward, there is little risk of water droplets getting into the boots when driving in the rain.
If you attach a cloth such as mesh to this air intake,
Furthermore, raindrops can be completely prevented from entering.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] 1. An air intake opening facing forward is formed on both sides or one side of the long barrel portion of the boot, and an air passageway with a lower end closed and communicating with the air intake port and extending downward through the long barrel portion. A motorcycle boot, characterized in that a communication hole is formed on the lower end side of the air passageway for communicating between the inside of the boot and the air passageway.
