Multi-function shoe pad

Abstract

A multi-function shoe pad is composed of a main body for a user's human sole to tread. The main body includes a hollow bulge integrally protruding toward a top side thereof and from a bottom side in such way that a chamber is formed below the hollow bulge. The chamber is deformable between a compressed state and an uncompressed state, so the hot air inside the chamber can exhaust and the cold air can be sucked into the chamber to enhance the air convection inside the user's shoe. Besides, the hollow bulge can allow the user's foot to tightly cling to the shoe to enable the shoe pad to be skidproof.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates generally to footwear, and more particularly, to a multi-function shoe pad.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]As disclosed in Taiwan Patent No. M307982 entitled “Compound Walking Shoe Pad” and No. M325753 entitled “Ergonomic Shoe Pad” and China Utility Model Pub. No. 2759247 entitled “Ergonomic Foot-arch Shoe Pad”, the feature of each lies in that the shoe pad includes one or more rigid solid protrusions corresponding to specific positions of a human foot sole, like toe section, internal arch-foot section, or transverse-arch section, for allowing the shoe pad to conform to human feet ergonomics for average distribution of pressure applied to the feet, thus maintaining body balance, correcting standing posture, and relieving sore feet resulting from long standing. However, a user making use of such shoe pad for a long time can become dependent on it in such a way that the user may ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]The secondary objective of the present invention is to provide a multi-function shoe pad, which remind and alert the user to correct his or her standing posture.

[0021]Because the hollow bulge has the sealed chamber, the shoe pad provides more bouncing force. If it is intended to enhance the bouncing force and / or shock absorbability, the elastic or shock-absorbing material can be mounted to the sealed chamber.

Problems solved by technology

However, a user making use of such shoe pad for a long time can become dependent on it in such a way that the user may not be erect while making use of the common shoe pad.

M307982, the solid protrusions are additionally mounted to the main body of the shoe pad to cause complicated production procedure and after long-term use, the protrusions likely disengages from the main body.
