[0039] Among them, a rotating hole matching the size of the torsion bar 1208 is opened inside the limiting plate 1209 to facilitate the limiting operation of the torsion bar 1208.

[0040] The frame 1207 is a U-shaped frame plate, and the size of the adjustment plate 1211 is larger than the size of the frame 1207 , thereby preventing the adjustment plate 1211 from being stuck in the interior of the frame 1207 .

[0046] It should be noted that the monitoring system includes a driving module, which is turned on by the monitoring system to sense and conduct information to the sensing module. If the upper conductive sheet and the lower conductive sheet are squeezed once, the system determines that it is counting. If the upper conductive sheet and the lower conductive sheet are continuously squeezed, the counting is paused. These two groups of methods are transmitted through network interaction, so that the device receives data and then displays it through the display module on the device, where the device is a smart phone or a smart watch.

[0047] Specifically, by providing a monitoring system, the shoe body can achieve the purpose of intelligent monitoring, thereby reducing the user's exercise burden when performing gait monitoring and improving practicality.

[0048] The working principle of the above embodiment is:

[0049] The smart casual shoes with step counting function are manufactured by bonding the lower contact plate 10 to the inner bottom wall of the concave bin 4 by means of Velcro, and then rotating the torsion bar 1208 to make the adjustment block 1210 move downward, driving the adjustment plate 1211 downward, pushing the push rod 1206, so that the positioning strip 1203 is clamped in the inside of the U-shaped frame 11, and the installation and fixation of the U-shaped frame 11 and the lower frame plate 6 bracket are completed, and then the upper contact plate 13 is installed by means of Velcro, and then the lower frame plate 6 can be placed in the concave bin 4 for use, at this time, the insole 3 is connected to the upper frame plate 8 When the user puts on the shoe, the insole 3 is squeezed, so that the lower frame plate 6 squeezes the upper contact plate 13, that is, the upper conductive sheet and the lower conductive sheet are in contact and energized, and the monitoring system is started for monitoring. The monitoring system includes a driving module, and the driving module is turned on by the monitoring system to sense and conduct to the sensing module. If the upper conductive sheet and the lower conductive sheet are squeezed once, the system determines it as counting. If the upper conductive sheet and the lower conductive sheet are continuously squeezed, the counting is paused. These two groups of methods are transmitted through network interaction, so that the device receives data and then displays it through the display module on the device.

Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.
