Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a shoe automatic inflatable cushion system that can be applied to all kinds of shoes. The inflatable cushion of the shoe automatic inflatable cushion system can be inflated and expanded to fit closely with the wearer's feet, which is adapted to the shape of the feet and can be adjusted, so as to wrap and fix the wearer's feet well and provide comfortable feeling while wearing. Additionally, the shoe automatic inflatable cushion system has an air pressure adjustment function that automatically adjusts the pressure of the inflatable cushion based on usage status, such that the life span of the inflatable cushion is extended and the wearer can wear the shoes under optimum pressure in any time.

Problems solved by technology

However, the shoes with shoelaces have many problems, e.g. the shoelaces are often loosened while moving, which requires retiring as a troublesome burden.
Furthermore, the loosen shoelaces may cause danger, e.g. wearer or other people may trip over it, or it may be involved in the gap of an escalator, a bicycle chain or a motorcycle pin.
In addition, wearing the shoes with shoelaces in long term may put excessive pressure on feet and cause discomfort.
However, the hook and loop fastener has insufficient strength to fix the feet and is easily detached.
Besides, the hook and loop fastener would gradually loses viscosity after using for a long period of time.
As a result, the shoes with the hook and loop fastener are inconvenient while moving and are inappropriate for exercise.
The sock-type shoe body also has insufficient strength to fix the feet, and the tightness cannot be adjusted once the shoes are purchased.
Also, the sock-type shoe body would be loose after using a long period of time and fail to fix the feet well.
On the other hand, in general, people can only select shoes in different size according to their foot lengths rather than individual foot shapes.
It is a common problem that people purchase the shoes which fail to fit the feet well, as their shoe bodies may be too wide, too narrow, too high, or too flat, and wearing unfit shoes to move can cause discomfort and injury.

Abstract

A shoe automatic inflatable cushion system is applied to a shoe which includes a shoe body and a bottom part connected therewith. When a weight sensor disposed on the bottom part detects a load, a control module receives an enabling signal and accordingly drives an air pump to operate, so that an inflatable cushion disposed in the shoe body is inflated and expanded. When an air pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the inflatable cushion higher than a specified threshold interval, the air pressure sensor sends a disabling signal to the control module, and the control module receives a disabling signal and accordingly stops operation of the air pump.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a shoe automatic inflatable cushion system, and more particularly to a shoe automatic inflatable cushion system inflated by an air pump.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Generally, most shoes are using shoelaces as a means of loosening and tying the shoes on feet. However, the shoes with shoelaces have many problems, e.g. the shoelaces are often loosened while moving, which requires retiring as a troublesome burden. Furthermore, the loosen shoelaces may cause danger, e.g. wearer or other people may trip over it, or it may be involved in the gap of an escalator, a bicycle chain or a motorcycle pin. In addition, wearing the shoes with shoelaces in long term may put excessive pressure on feet and cause discomfort.[0003]Some shoes are using hook and loop fastener or a sock-type shoe body as the means of loosening and tying the shoes on feet. However, the hook and loop fastener has insufficient strength to fix the feet and is ea...
