Benefits of technology

The shoe inserts for correction are designed to correct twisted heels more effectively by selecting and using shoe inserts with the right correction means for the side and degree of twisting. This approach saves resources and costs because separate correction means are not manufactured in various sizes proportional to foot size or twisting degree. Additionally, shoe inserts for correction may have the advantage of providing massage effect and good wearing comfort because they do not slide forward.

Problems solved by technology

These shoe inserts may have effects of cushioning and size correction, however, these shoe inserts also had problems of not preventing pain of feet and knees and also, in worse cases, diseases such as arthritis, or cervical and lumbar discs occurring by having bad impact on joints of the knees, the hip, the waist and the neck since a leg becomes twisted when the heel is twisted because the structure of feet supporting most of weight while walking is not normal.
That is, femur and tibia make ideal angle and the up-and-down space between inner side and outer side of the knee joint is balanced in case of having normal legs for an exemplary embodiment, on the other hand, the knee joint and the hip joint become twisted when a heel is twisted due to the side wear of a shoe or bad walking habit, thus generating unstable standing posture or walking posture since legs bend in a ‘O’ shape if up-and-down space of outer side of the knee joint is bigger than that of inner side, and also causing degenerative arthritis since the friction pressure of inner side of the knee increases.
On the contrary, if legs bend in a ‘X’ shape when up-and-down space of outer side of the knee joint is smaller than that of inner side, the shock absorption is occurred due to the imbalance of the knee or hip joint in the process of transmitting mobility generated from a foot to the upper body through the knee, and mobility cannot function at its best.
These shoe inserts for correction had problem of not correcting when a heel is twisted since only edges of outer side of a middle-sole portion and a front-sole portion were lifted up by the inclined surface, excluding the heel, while keeping the heel in a flat state same as normal shoe inserts.
In addition, these shoe inserts for correction had disadvantage of having limited purpose since the shoe inserts for correction cannot be used in the correction of ‘X’ shaped knee since only edges of outer side of the middle-sole portion and the front-sole portion are lifted up, and also had problems of causing waste of resources and costs since the shoe inserts should have been manufactured not only in various sizes with different heights of the inclined surface in order to fit the foot size of the users but also in whole size of the sole of a foot.

Embodiment Construction

[0035]As follows, shoe inserts for correction according to the present invention is described in detail in accordance with attached drawings.

[0036]FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a shoe insert for correction according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating a lower surface of shoe inserts for correction of FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the use state of a shoe insert for correction of FIG. 1 from the side.

[0037]The shoe inserts for correction according to the first embodiment of the present invention of FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 is characterized by comprising a body 10 and a correction means 20 formed in the lower surface of the body.

[0038]The body is formed in a size supporting only bottoms of a rear-sole portion and a middle-sole portion of a foot, excluding a front-sole portion, and an upper surface 11 is formed in a manner of supporting bottom by adhering to the bottoms of the rear-sole portion and the m...

Abstract

Disclosed is a shoe insert for correction which not only corrects unevenly deformed joints of a human body evenly by wearing shoes with shoe inserts inside but also provides enough massage effects. The shoe insert for correction according to the present invention is characterized by comprising; a body 10 having a size supporting only bottoms of a rear-sole portion and a middle-sole portion of a foot, excluding a front-sole portion; and a correction means 20 having a coupling plate 21 protruding from one of an outer side or an inner side of the rear-sole portion, supporting a heel, on a lower surface 14 of the body in a manner of crossing back and forth, and a correction member 22 provided with a coupling recess portion 21′ recessed into an upper surface of the correction member in a manner of crossing back and forth, such that the coupling is coupled thereto.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to shoe inserts for correction, and more specifically to shoe inserts for correction which not only corrects unevenly deformed joints of a human body evenly by wearing shoes with shoe inserts inside but also provides enough massage effects.[0003]2. Description of the Related Arts[0004]Basically, shoe inserts were used to absorb or disperse shock as much as possible by putting shoe inserts inside shoes so that shock mainly occurring while walking is not given directly to feet and not transmitted to a human body, or to correct shoes when shoes are loose because the size of shoes are bigger than feet.[0005]These shoe inserts may have effects of cushioning and size correction, however, these shoe inserts also had problems of not preventing pain of feet and knees and also, in worse cases, diseases such as arthritis, or cervical and lumbar discs occurring by having bad impact on joints of the kne...
