[0006] With the above structure, before the test, the touch screen integrated machine is turned on, and the system required for foot detection and pictures of various foot shapes and various heel shapes are imported into the touch screen integrated machine; during the test, the user stands on the glass pedal facing the touch screen integrated machine, turns on the light strip, and the light of the light strip enters the groove through the glass pedal and is reflected by the mirror surface, so that the foot print is projected on the mirror surface. Through the reflection of the mirror surface, the tester can select multiple different directions according to the needs to comprehensively observe the height of the user's arch, the sole of the foot, and the footprints and foot prints formed by the sole of the foot on the glass pedal, so as to accurately determine the classification of the user's foot type;

[0007] The user's foot shape is selected on the touch screen all-in-one machine. After that, the user turns his back to the touch screen all-in-one machine. The tester observes the shape of the user's heel in three states: upright standing, 45° knee flexion, and standing with toes raised through the first camera on the touch screen all-in-one machine and takes photos respectively. After that, the user turns again to face the touch screen all-in-one machine. The tester shows the taken photos to the user on the touch screen all-in-one machine, and compares the photos taken in each state with the pictures of various heel shapes, and selects the heel shape of the user in that state. After all three states are selected, the touch screen all-in-one machine generates a foot health report according to the selected options. The tester can open the foot health report on the touch screen all-in-one machine and explain it to the user. Finally, the tester customizes a suitable orthotic insole for the user based on the observed foot state of the user. The system has a simple structure, convenient and intuitive detection, and strong practicality.

[0008] In order to better utilize the light strip for lighting, preferably, the light strip is an LED light strip, and the LED light strip is electrically connected to an LED driving power supply disposed in the base.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a foot detection device with a mirror in the present invention comprises a base 1, a groove 3 with an opening facing upward is provided in the middle of the base 1, a glass pedal 6 is provided at the opening of the groove 3, and a footprint outline is provided on the glass pedal 6; a circle of light strip is wound around the outer wall of the glass pedal 6, and the light strip is an LED light strip 5, and the LED light strip 5 is electrically connected to an LED driving power supply arranged in the base 1; a mirror 4 is obliquely provided in the groove 3, one end of the mirror 4 is connected to the bottom of the groove 3, and the other end extends obliquely upward and is connected and fixed to the groove wall at the corresponding position of the notch of the groove 3, and the mirror 4 forms an angle with the horizontal plane, and the angle can be 20°~50°, preferably 30°.

[0031] A bracket 2 is also vertically provided on one side of the base 1, and a first camera 8 is provided on the bracket 2. The vertical spacing between the plane where the central axis of the first camera 8 is located and the upper end surface of the glass pedal 6 can be 5-15 cm, preferably 10 cm; a second camera 9 is also provided on the bracket 2, and the vertical spacing between the plane where the central axis of the second camera 9 is located and the plane where the lower end surface of the base 1 is located can be 50-150 cm, preferably 100 cm; two handles 10 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the bracket 2, and a touch screen integrated machine 7 is fixedly provided on the upper part of the bracket 2, and the upper end of the touch screen integrated machine 7 is tilted forward so that the plane where the display screen of the touch screen integrated machine 7 is located is set obliquely upward; the first camera 8 and the second camera 9 are both electrically connected to the touch screen integrated machine 7.

[0032] The base 1 is provided with a heater 11 , and the base 1 is also provided with a power interface, and the touch screen all-in-one machine 7 , the LED driving power supply and the heater 11 are all electrically connected to the power interface.

[0033] A method for customizing an insole or a sole of a foot detection device with a mirror based on this embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0034] Before the test, the power interface (not shown) on the base 1 is connected to the mains with a power cord (not shown). After the touch screen integrated machine 7 is turned on, the system required for foot detection and pictures of various foot shapes and various heel shapes and other data are imported into the touch screen integrated machine 7;

[0035] Step S101, during the detection, the user first stands 2 to 5 meters in front of the second camera 9, and the detection personnel uses the touch screen integrated machine 7 to operate the second camera 9 to take a full-body photo of the user; then, the user faces the touch screen integrated machine 7, and stands on the glass pedal 6 with both feet according to the position of the footprint outline (not marked). At this time, the user can hold the two handles 10 with both hands to keep the body stable; turn on the LED light strip 5, and the light of the LED light strip 5 enters the groove 3 through the glass pedal 6. Since the mirror 4 and the glass pedal 6 form an angle of 30°, the light is reflected by the mirror 4, so that the footprint is projected on the mirror 4, which can facilitate the detection personnel to observe the user's sole through the reflection of the mirror 4. In addition, the detection personnel can select multiple different directions according to needs to comprehensively observe the height of the user's arch, the sole, and the footprints and footprints formed by the sole on the glass pedal 6. After accurately determining the user's foot type, the corresponding foot type is selected for the user on the touch screen integrated machine 7;

[0036] Step S102: The user turns his back to the touch screen all-in-one machine 7, and the inspector observes the shape of the heel of the user in three states, namely, standing upright, bending the knees at 45 degrees, and standing with the toes raised, through the first camera 8 on the touch screen all-in-one machine 7, and takes photos respectively. Among them, standing upright simulates the state when the whole sole of the foot is on the ground, bending the knees at 45 degrees simulates the state of walking with the knees bent, and standing with the toes raised simulates the state when the toes are just about to leave the ground. By simulating the above three states, the state of the heel of the user during the whole walking process can be obtained;

[0037] Step S103, after the shooting is completed, the user turns around again to face the touch screen integrated machine 7, and the test personnel shows the shot photos to the user on the touch screen integrated machine 7, and analyzes the biomechanical lines of the user's lower limbs based on the photos; observe whether the line connecting the three points of the heel midpoint, the midpoint of the inner and outer ankles, the calf midline and the knee midpoint is a straight line, if it is not a straight line, it means that the biomechanical line of the lower limb is abnormal and needs to be corrected; among them, if the midpoint of the heel deviates outward, it is foot eversion, and if the midpoint of the heel deviates inward, it is foot inversion;

[0038] At the same time, the photos taken in each state are compared with the pictures of various heel shapes, and the heel shape of the user in that state is selected; after all three states are selected, the touch screen all-in-one machine 7 generates a foot health report according to the selected options, and the tester can open the foot health report on the touch screen all-in-one machine 7 to explain it to the user.

[0039] Step S104: The inspector selects a suitable thermoplastic insole or UV light-cured sole by inquiring about the user's condition and observing the user's foot shape and foot length;

[0040] Step S105, placing the thermoplastic orthopedic insole into the heater 11 to heat it and soften it; or placing the sole into a UV light device to soften it;

[0041] Step S106: Place the softened insole or sole on a shaping pillow or a rectangular cushion, step on the middle of the insole or sole, lift up the toes, and perform the following actions in sequence:

[0042] (1) Look forward and stand for 3 to 5 seconds;

[0043] (2) Lean back slightly and keep the heel under pressure for 3 to 5 seconds to ensure that the heel is in place;

[0044] (3) Bend the knees slightly and adjust the biomechanical alignment of the lower limbs so that the midpoint of the heel, the midpoint of the inner and outer ankles, the midline of the calf, and the midpoint of the knee are in the same straight line, ensuring that the biomechanical alignment of the foot is correct in the three stages of walking;

[0045] (4) Stand up and rock back and forth 10 times to simulate the dynamic walking process, and fine-tune the shape of the insole or sole to make walking more comfortable;

[0046] Step S107, check whether the insole or the sole is suitable after shaping, if not, return to step S105;

[0047] Step S108: recommending suitable shoes according to the user's foot shape; for example, if the front part of the foot is wide, round-toed shoes are recommended; if the front part of the foot is narrow, pointed-toed shoes are recommended;

[0048] Step S109: Put the shaped insole or sole into the shoe.

[0049] The insole or sole customized by the above method can well conform to the shape of the user's foot when it is in the correct biomechanical line position. The method is simple, comfortable to use, and has a good correction effect.

[0050] The parts not described in the present invention are consistent with the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] The above are only implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention.
