Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
82 words
Ice hockey boot with a one piece outer shell of a relatively hard synthetic resin and an inner shoe of a relatively soft synthetic resin and with a blade support mounted to the sole of the outer shell, characterized in that the outer shell is fashioned to be adapted to the shape of the foot in the joint zone, in the ankle zone, in the heel zone, and with respect to the constriction above the heel zone in the Achilles tendon zone.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
82 words
Ice hockey boot with a one piece outer shell of a relatively hard synthetic resin and an inner shoe of a relatively soft synthetic resin and with a blade support mounted to the sole of the outer shell, characterized in that the outer shell is fashioned to be adapted to the shape of the foot in the joint zone, in the ankle zone, in the heel zone, and with respect to the constriction above the heel zone in the Achilles tendon zone.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that also the inner shoe is fashioned to be adapted to the shape of the foot in the joint zone, in the ankle zone, and in the heel zone, especially with respect to the constriction above the heel zone in the Achilles tendon zone.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that the outer shell is formed with a wall thickness which decreases toward the top edge zones -- especially toward the edge zones of the opening for the top of the foot.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
40 words
Boot according to claim 1, wherein the sole region of the outer shell is reinforced by being thicker than the laterally adjacent shank portion of the outer shell and the blade support is mounted exclusively to the reinforced sole region.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
31 words
Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that the outer shell has perforations for the insertion of shoelaces in the edge zone of the opening for the top of the foot.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that the outer shell has lateral lacing openings in the impact-protective portion conventionally extended to above the zone of the Achilles tendon.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
53 words
Boot according to claim 1 with a tongue between the outer shell and the inner shoe is formed integrally with the inner shoe and is disposed, in the in-use condition, so that it overlaps the edge zones of the opening for the top of the foot in the inner shoe from the outside.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
39 words
Boot according to claim 7, characterized in that the tongue is fashioned with a larger wall thickness with respect to the transition zone to the shank of the inner shoe in the zone of the top of the foot.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
19 words
Boot according to claim 7, characterized in that the inside of the inner shoe is covered by a fabric.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
17 words
Boot according to claim 8, characterized in that a foot lining is incorporated into the inner shoe.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim

Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that the wall thickness of the sole of the outer shell is larger by about one-fourth than the wall thickness of the adjacent shank portions.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim

Boot according to claim 1, characterized in that the wall thickness of the sole region of the inner shoe is equal to the wall thickness in the adjoining shank portion.
