Publication number: 20170265590Abstract: A closure system for a boot or other footwear includes a tension member that is disposed within the boot and routed or guided about a path within the boot via one or more guides. The closure system also includes an adjustment member that is disposed within the boot and operably coupled with the tension member. The closure system further includes a reel based closure device having a knob that is operable to tension the tension member and to release tension from the tension member. Tensioning of the tension member adjusts a fit of the adjustment member about a foot within the boot to secure the foot within the boot and loosening of the tension member adjusts the fit of the adjustment member about the foot to allow the foot to be more easily removed from the boot.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2017Publication date: September 21, 2017Applicant: Boa Technology Inc.Inventors: Robert Burns, Charles Hamilton, Ilya Minkin, Rebecca Peterson, Aaron Venturini, Tamara White

Patent number: 9700101Abstract: According to an embodiment, a component for attachment to an article includes an upper component that is made of a thermoplastic material having a first melting temperature and a flange member that is molded onto the upper component and made of a thermoplastic elastomer material having a second melting temperature that is lower than the first melting temperature of the upper component. The flange member extends laterally from a bottom end of the upper component so that a bottom surface of the flange member is flush with or positioned axially below a bottom surface of the upper component. The melting temperature of the thermoplastic elastomer material enables the flange member to be directly coupled to the article via heat welding and the like without substantially affecting the upper component.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2014Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: Boa Technology Inc.Inventors: Kristopher Lovett, Andrea Cavanagh, Robert Burns, Mark Soderberg, Mark Kerns, Michael Nickel, James Capra, Ilya Minkin, Brett Vladika, Sean Cavanagh, David Dickensheets

Patent number: 8724615Abstract: In a communication system comprising one master device and one or more slave devices, the slave devices synchronize to a common timebase maintained at the master device, independently of a wireless module timebase, without requiring transmission of accurate and real time master timer information from the master device. In one approach, a slave device sends timing information to the master device, the timing information representing the slave device timebase, and the master device sends back correction information to the slave device, the correction information representing a difference between the slave device timebase and the master device timebase, the correction information being usable independent of the timing of sending back the correction information. The master timebase might be a system master timer of an accurate timer based on a timer interrupt and a high resolution timer having a resolution greater than a timer interrupt resolution.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2006Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: ATMEL CorporationInventors: Katelijn Vleugels, Barry Thompson, Nils Bunger, Ilya Minkin
