Publication number: 20250001446Abstract: A spray shield holder includes a platform having opposed first and second spray-shield mounting surfaces coextending between a platform proximate edge and a platform distal edge forward of the proximate edge. A forward-facing central clip depends from the first spray-shield mounting surface. Depending from the second spray-shield mounting surface are lateral first and second clips mutually situated on opposite sides—and laterally to the outside—of the central clip. While each of the lateral first and second clips faces laterally, and is oriented orthogonally to the central clip, the lateral first and second clips face oppositely of one another. The central clip is flexibly configured for removably retaining a central spray shield between itself and the first spray-shield mounting surface, while each of the lateral first and second clips is configured for removably retaining, respectively, a first and second spray shield between itself and the second spray-shield mounting surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2024Publication date: January 2, 2025Inventors: Richard M.

Publication number: 20210282502Abstract: A tongue for a skate boot includes a body having a first segment and a second segment at a lower end. One or both of the first and second segments are displaceable toward the other to a sandwiched position. The first and second segments overlap in the sandwiched position and position part of a toe portion of the boot between the first and second segments. The first segment includes two mating tabs spaced apart from each other, and the second segment includes two segment apertures spaced apart from each other. In the sandwiched position, the first segment engages an inner surface of the part of the toe portion and the second segment engages an outer surface, two toe portion apertures are aligned with the two segment apertures; and the two mating tabs pass into the two toe portion apertures and into the two segment apertures.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Alexandre HUNEAU, Etienne CHAMPAGNE, Georges-Emmanuel HARVEY, Daniel CHARTRAND

Patent number: 11039664Abstract: A skate includes a boot having a toe portion with a toe portion connector on at least one of its inner and outer surfaces. A tongue is mountable within the boot of the skate. The tongue at its lower end has a pressing member with cooperating first and second segments. The tongue has a tongue connector on at least one of the first and second segments. At least one of the first and second segments is foldable to engage the first segment with the inner surface of the toe portion and the second segment with the outer surface of the toe portion, and to engage the tongue connector with the toe portion connector to removably connect the tongue to the toe portion.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2017Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: SPORT MASKA INC.Inventors: Alexandre Huneau, Etienne Champagne, Georges-Emmanuel Harvey, Daniel Chartrand

Patent number: 10582739Abstract: A skate boot includes a boot shell having first and second opposite side portions cooperating to define a foot receiving opening therebetween. The first and second side portions have a facing portion extending from the foot receiving opening. A band having a first end portion is received in the boot shell and attached to the boot shell at or adjacent the second side portion. The band extends across an interior of the boot shell and is slidingly received through an opening defined in the first side portion so as to have a second end portion of the band extending outside of the boot shell. The second end portion of the band defines an aperture for receiving a lace.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2018Date of Patent: March 10, 2020Assignee: SPORT MASKA INC.Inventors: Alexis Faucher, Alexandre Huneau, Manuel Bergeron Piette

Patent number: 10039341Abstract: A boot includes a boot shell having first and second side portions each including eyelets defined in an instep region thereof and a respective opening through at least one the first side portion in proximity of the eyelets. The boot also includes a band having a first end portion received in the boot shell and attached to the boot shell at or adjacent the second side portion. The band extends across an interior of the boot shell and is slidingly received through the opening defined in the first side portion so as to have an opposed second end portion extending outside of the boot shell. The second end portion the band defines an aperture for receiving a lace. An opposed second band may be provided, with the bands crossing each other. The boot may be a skate boot. A method of manufacturing a boot is also discussed.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2016Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: SPORT MASKA INC.Inventors: Alexis Faucher, Alexandre Huneau, Manuel Bergeron Piette

Publication number: 20180043233Abstract: A skate boot having a tendon guard partially delimiting an opening of the skate boot. The tendon guard includes a lower member, a connecting member extending upwardly from the lower member, an upper member extending upwardly from the connecting member and an intermediate part. The upper member is abuttable against a rear bottom portion of a leg of the user. The upper member is resiliently displaceable relative to the lower member in a forward and a rearward direction. The intermediate part interconnects the upper and lower members and may encase the connecting member. The intermediate part is made of a material having one or both of a greater flexibility and a lower hardness than that of the lower member, the connecting member and the upper member. A method of manufacturing a skate is also discussed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2016Publication date: February 15, 2018Inventors: Georges-Emmanuel HARVEY, Manuel BERGERON PIETTE, Alexandre HUNEAU, Alexis FAUCHER

Patent number: 8790151Abstract: A toy construction base plate configured to receive a toy construction and having a collapsible handle, which allows the construction to be built on the base plate on a flat play surface, after which the handle may be deployed from the base plate to allow a user to hold and play with the toy construction. The handle may be deployed by, for example, pivoting with respect to a support member of the base plate and pivoting above, below, or to the side of the toy construction. The handle may also be used as a stand to hold a construction above a play surface. The toy construction may be made of interlocking stackable blocks and the support surface of the base plate may be configured to receive the interlocking stackable blocks.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2011Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: MEGA Brands Inc.Inventors: Vic Bertrand, Alexandre Huneau, Réal Laurent Lanoix, Yanick Tremblay
