Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of measurement, and more specifically to a shoe sole measuring mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Shoe soles are typically manufactured using molds for mass production. However, the forefoot curve of a shoe sole directly affects the width of the forefoot. When using molds, measurements are required after injection molding to avoid design errors. However, current manual measurements are prone to significant human error, leading to dimensional deviations in the soles that fail to meet the designer's requirements. These dimensional deviations result in reduced comfort after the shoe is finished.

[0003] The application with application number CN201620974571.X and application name "Shoe Sole Length Measurement Structure" describes a tool for measuring shoe soles. However, the shoe sole length measurement structure is relatively simple, consisting only of a base, a toe positioning device, a measuring slider, and a measuring ruler. Since the toe positioning device cannot be adjusted, it cannot be adapted to measure different models of shoe soles, resulting in a single detection function, large mechanical errors in the detection data, and poor adaptability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shoe sole measuring mechanism, which aims to improve the problems of large errors and cumbersome measurement of existing shoe sole products.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a shoe sole measuring mechanism, comprising:

[0006] A chassis frame, with a slide rail on its top surface, and a baffle vertically mounted on the top surface of the chassis frame at one end of the slide rail; a push plate is mounted on the slide rail that slides toward or away from the baffle.

[0007] A lifting rod is provided with a slider for lifting and moving, and a groove for mounting the lifting rod is provided in the middle of the baffle.

[0008] The baffle has a first scale perpendicular to the top surface of the chassis frame, and the top surface of the chassis frame has a second scale perpendicular to the baffle.

[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the chassis frame is provided with a placement groove for accommodating the shoe sole, the slide rail is located at the bottom of the placement groove, and the second scale is provided on the top surface of the side wall of the placement groove.

[0010] Preferably, the baffle is further provided with at least one lifting guide post, and the lifting guide post is provided with a support plate extending toward the push plate.

[0011] Preferably, the push plate is provided with an indicator plate that indicates the second scale.

[0012] Preferably, the top of the push plate is also provided with a hook that moves back and forth toward the baffle.

[0013] Preferably, the horizontal bar of the hook is provided with a third scale, and the vertical bar of the hook is provided with a lifting and sliding pin.

[0014] Preferably, the push plate is provided with a fourth scale perpendicular to the top surface of the chassis frame.

[0015] Preferably, the lifting rod is a threaded rod, and a wing nut is provided on the threaded rod to drive its own rotation; the slider is threadedly engaged with the threaded rod.

[0016] Preferably, the placement slot is provided with a fifth scale parallel to the baffle and having at least one fifth scale.

[0017] Preferably, it also includes a clamping plate for cooperating with the support plate to clamp the forefoot of the shoe sole, the clamping plate being slidably disposed on the lifting guide column.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0019] 1. The sliding rail is used to move the push plate, thereby changing the distance between the baffle and the push plate to adapt to different sizes of shoe soles for measurement, thus improving the adaptability.

[0020] 2. A lifting rod and a slider are installed on the baffle. The lifting rod moves the slider up and down to change its horizontal height. Therefore, the height of the forefoot tilt of the sole can be determined by adjusting the height of the slider and the first graduation, obtaining accurate data. It can also be adapted to measure soles of different models and sizes.

[0021] 3. The chassis frame also has a second scale, which can measure the length of the sole. By acquiring multiple data points, it is possible to more accurately identify which parts of the sole have problems, so that corresponding corrections can be made and practicality can be improved.

[0039] Example

[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe sole measuring mechanism, including a chassis frame 10 and a lifting rod 20. A slide rail 101 is provided on the top surface of the chassis frame 10, and a baffle 102 is provided vertically on the top surface of the chassis frame 10 and at one end of the slide rail 101. A push plate 103 is provided on the slide rail 101 to slide toward or away from the baffle 102. A slider 104 is provided on the lifting rod 20 for lifting and moving. A groove 105 for mounting the lifting rod 20 is provided in the middle of the baffle 102. A first scale 1021 is provided on the baffle 102 perpendicular to the top surface of the chassis frame 10, and a second scale 106 is provided on the top surface of the chassis frame 10 perpendicular to the baffle 102.

[0041] This embodiment describes an auxiliary tool for measuring shoe soles. The accuracy of the sole data directly affects the quality of the shoe product and the comfort of wearing it. Therefore, the slide rail 101 is used to move the push plate 103, thereby changing the distance between the baffle 102 and the push plate 103. Combined with the data on the second scale 106, the length data of the sole is obtained. Furthermore, the lifting rod 20 and the slider 104 provided on the baffle 102 are adjusted to move the slider 104 up and down, thereby changing the horizontal height of the slider 104. Therefore, the height of the forefoot tilt of the sole can be obtained by adjusting the height of the slider 104 and the first scale 1021. In this way, the main data of the sole are obtained to determine whether there are any errors in the sole made using the mold, so as to correct the mold structure. At the same time, the design of the sole measuring mechanism improves the flexibility of measurement, can be adapted to measure different models of soles, and with the setting of the first scale 1021 or the second scale 106, accurate measurement data can be obtained, solving the problem of the cumbersome nature of existing manual or simple tool measurements.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the top surface of the chassis frame 10 is provided with a placement groove 107 for accommodating the shoe sole, the slide rail 101 is located at the bottom of the placement groove 107, and the second scale 106 is provided on the top surface of the side wall of the placement groove 107. The placement groove 107 can offset the thickness of the shoe sole, so as to improve the accuracy of the measurement of the first scale 1021 and the second scale 106.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, at least one lifting guide post 1022 is also provided on the baffle 102, and a support plate 1023 extending towards the push plate 103 is provided on the lifting guide post 1022. The lifting guide post 1022 is arranged parallel to the lifting rod 20, and the support plate 1023 is slidably installed on the lifting guide post 1022. The support plate 1023 can abut against the raised position at the front end of the sole, forming a limit detection or support function; for example, by setting the extension length of the support plate 1023, the raised part of the sole can be restricted. If the front end of the sole does not contact the baffle 102, it can be intuitively judged that the sole is a defective product, and data can be obtained through corresponding measurements for correction.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the push plate 103 is provided with an indicator plate 1031 that indicates the second scale 106. The indicator plate 1031 can be used to indicate the second scale 106 so as to obtain measurement data intuitively and accurately, thereby improving practicality and convenience.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the top of the push plate 103 is also provided with a hook 1032 that moves back and forth toward the baffle 102. The hook 1032 is designed to measure the distance between the foot shape contour of the shoe upper and the outer contour of the shoe sole at the rear end of the sole, so as to ensure that the data parameters of the foot shape contour of the shoe upper meet the requirements, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the shoe size when making shoes.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a third scale 1033 is provided on the horizontal bar of the hook 1032, and a sliding pin 1034 is provided on the vertical bar of the hook 1032. To improve measurement accuracy, a third scale 1033 can be provided on the hook 1032 to visually obtain measurement data. Simultaneously, the design of the pin 1034 allows it to press against the upper of the shoe sole to measure accurate data, thereby obtaining accurate test data and ensuring the quality of the shoe sole production.

[0047] like Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the push plate 103 is provided with a fourth scale 1035 that is perpendicular to the top surface of the chassis frame 10. Therefore, the thickness data of the heel of the shoe sole can be intuitively obtained through the fourth scale 1035 on the push plate 103, which improves the convenience of use.

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the lifting rod 20 is a threaded rod with a wing nut 201 that drives its own rotation. The slider 104 is threadedly engaged with the threaded rod. Through the threaded rod structure, the wing nut 201 is fixed to the threaded rod, creating an effect where the threaded rod can rotate following the wing nut 201, thereby driving the slider 104 to rise and fall; alternatively, the slider 104 is fixed to the threaded rod, and the rotation of the wing nut 201 causes the threaded rod and slider 104 to move up and down, achieving the purpose of adjusting the horizontal height of the slider 104. It is simple and convenient to use, and manual adjustment provides greater flexibility.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the placement groove 107 is provided with a fifth scale 108 parallel to the baffle 102 and having at least one. The width data of the sole can be obtained by using the fifth scale 108. With multiple fifth scales 108 at different positions, the width data of the sole at different positions can be obtained intuitively and accurately. By using data from multiple different parts, the parameter data of the sole can be detected more accurately to ensure the quality of the sole production.

[0050] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment also includes a clamping plate 30 for clamping the fore-end of the shoe sole in cooperation with the support plate 1023. The clamping plate 30 is slidably mounted on the lifting guide post 1022. Since the fore-end of the shoe sole is relatively thin, in order to avoid deformation of the front end during measurement (i.e., excessive pushing force of the push plate 103 leading to measurement errors) and resulting in data measurement deviations, the clamping and fixing effect of the clamping plate 30 and the support plate 1023 is used to avoid errors during detection and improve the accuracy of detection.

[0051] In the above embodiment, the first scale 1021, the second scale 106, the third scale 1033, the fourth scale 1035, and the fifth scale 108 can all be scale rulers. The accuracy of the scale rulers can be determined according to the required installation and use, such as scale rulers with an accuracy of millimeters.

[0052] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
