Benefits of technology

[0020](1) With the use of the adjustment element, the force applied to a foot is effectively made uniform, so that a user may stand or walk under an ideal condition.
[0021](2) Through arrangement and adjustment of the adjustment element, the balance between bones and

Problems solved by technology

The economic development and progress makes the opportunity of taking physical activity remarkably reduced in the modern living and the consequence is insufficiency of physiological loading for modern people.
The general causes for the chronic pains are basically improper motions and gestures that make bones and muscles losing balance.
Such a compensation effect is an interaction induced between bones and muscles and such an interaction between bones and muscles may easily lead to improper motions and gestures when humans are standing and walking.
Such improper motions and gestures may make bones and muscles losing balance and as a consequence, the chronic pans discussed above, as well as other sours and pains, may occur.
The chronic pains and other sours and pains are generally brought by the general effect of compensation of human body and techniques of the related medical field or science may not be possible to solve these problems.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]The following descriptions are exemplary embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.

[0037]As shown in FIG. 3, the present invention comprises at least one adjustment element 10, and the adjustment element 10 forms a support point. The adjustment element 10 has a bottom surface that is provided with a coupling section 11 for coupling purposes. The support point is of a shape of any of a circle, an ellipse, and a rectangle. Further, the support point has a top surface that is any one of a raised surface, a circular-curved surface, a semi-circular-curved surface, and an irregular surf...

Abstract

A foot balance device includes at least one adjustment element arranged at a position between a front sole and a rear heel. The adjustment element forms a support point having a bottom surface that is provided with a coupling section. The coupling section functions to couple to a corresponding position in a shoe or on a shoe pad. As such, the distribution of force between the heel and the sole is changed to realize proper distribution of body weight on the foot and make force uniformly acting along a circumference of the adjustment element to thereby protect the foot from being hurt and improve the sense of comfortableness.

Description

(a) TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention generally relates to a foot balance device that adjusts force distribution on human foot and is particularly applicable to leather shoes, sports shoes, loafers, high-heal shoes, and the likes.(b) DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART[0002]The economic development and progress makes the opportunity of taking physical activity remarkably reduced in the modern living and the consequence is insufficiency of physiological loading for modern people. This leads to the emergence of disease of civilization, including metabolic syndrome, obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and deterioration of cardiopulmonary function.[0003]In addition to the diseases of civilization, chronic pains are also very common in the modern society. The general causes for the chronic pains are basically improper motions and gestures that make bones and muscles losing balance. In view of creature evolution, in the evolution course of human beings, humans change...
