ABSTRACT:
An in-line skate has a wheeled chassis and a detachable boot for walking. The chassis has an elongated frame and a multiplicity of wheels mounted to the frame. The frame has a projection extending from it, the projection having a stem and an overhanging head at the distal end of the stem. The frame also includes an elongated rib, with a cantilevered extension, extending from the frame in spaced relation to the projection, along the length of the frame. The boot is adapted for releasable attachment to the chassis, and has an upper attached to a flexible sole with a tread for walking upon. The sole defines a slot adapted to receive the rib of the frame. The slot has an undercut at one end for retaining the cantilevered extension of the rib to resist separation of the attached boot and chassis. The sole also contains a movable clip positioned to receive and releasably engage the projection to resist separation of the attached boot and chassis. In another embodiment, the location of the projection and the clip are reversed. Methods of employing this structure to remove the wheeled chassis from the boot are also described.
