High heel shoe having foldable heel

Abstract

A high heel shoe pertains to a folding heel which folds resiliently when the heel tip contacts a surface and absorbs impact transferred from the heel of a wearer's foot to relieve fatigue while walking. The high heel shoe having a foldable heel includes: a sole (110) having a bottom portion (111) contacting the ground, and a tilt portion (112) tilted upwardly from the bottom portion (111); a heel (130) having a front top (131) hinged to the intermediate portion of the lower surface of the tilt portion (112); and a resilient member (140) of which both ends are fixed at a rear lower surface (112a) of the tilt portion (112) and at a top (132) of the heel (130), respectively. The heel (130) also has an unfolded state in which the elastic force of the resilient member (140) is released.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a high heel shoe for women, and more particularly, to a high heel shoe having a foldable heel which is resiliently folded when the heel tip contacts the ground, to enable a shoe wearer to walk in a natural and comfortable manner, and which absorbs the impact transferred from the heel of a wearer's foot to relieve fatigue while walking.BACKGROUND ART[0002]In general, high heel shoes are referred to as shoes by which the heel of a wearer is raised. Since the wearer can look taller and legs may look more appealing when wearing high heel shoes, many women use high heel shoes. In addition, high heel shoes are considered to assume an important position in completion of fashion, and high heel shoes having various designs are being manufactured and sold to meet with such requirements.[0003]Each high heel shoe basically includes a sole having a bottom portion formed at a front side and coming in contact with the ground surface, and a tilt...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0016]As described above, in the high heel shoe including the foldable heel according to the present invention, since the heel is resiliently folded and the weight of the walker is naturally moved from the contacted heel to the bottom portion of the high heel shoe, comfortable walking becomes possible. In addition, as the impact applied from the heel is smoothly absorbe

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, when fatigue due to walking in high heels is much larger than walking in general shoes, and when high heel shoes are worn for a long time, the impact is hard on joints such as the ankle, knee, spine, and so on, and causes severe pain, deformation of feet, or the like.

However, the high heel shoe 1 having the shock-absorbing function according to the conventional art has a relatively complex shock-absorbing structure to make it difficult to manufacture the structure, causing high expense.

In addition, since the shock-absorbing action is applied in a direction perpendicular to the ground surface, the following problems of the conventional high heel shoe could not be solved.

That is, a center of
