Abstract

A device to be fitted to an automobile wheel in order to increase friction between the wheel and the road surface during winter conditions is made substantially from textile material and comprises a belt (12) to encircle the tread of the wheel and be held in place by outer and inner side portions (13, 15), the inner side portion (15) having an elastic member (16). The belt (12) of the device is made from a band (7) of textile material provided with stripes (6) of abrasive material set in a matrix of a binding agent adhering firmly to the band material.

• B60C 27/18 - Non-skid devices temporarily attachable to resilient tyres or resiliently-tyred wheels extending over the complete circumference of tread, e.g. made of chains formed of close material, e.g. leather the material being fabric, e.g. woven wire

Abstract

A sole (1) for a pedestrian's shoe or a slipover device (18) for such a shoe has a base consisting of a non-woven microfibre material made of thermoplastic polyester or polyamide. The microfibre material is exposed in an arcuate section (5) in the f ront foot portion (2), in the mid-foot portion (3) and in a wheel-shaped section (6) in the heel portion (4) of the sole. An elastomer material is deposited as rounded knobs onto the microfibre material in a fore portion (7) of the front foot portion (2) and in a ring (8) and sectors (9) in the heel portion (4) of the sole (1). A PVC material is deposited, also in the form of rounded knobs, in a transverse band (10) in the front foot portion (2) and in a larger part (11) of the heel portion (4) so as to surround the ring (8). The use of the microfibre material as a means of enhancing friction on an icy surface is also disclosed.
