Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electric surfboard racing technology, specifically to a foot pad for racing electric surfboards and its biomimetic adsorption method. Background Technology
[0002] Current competitive electric surfboards are powerful and fast. Athletes need to concentrate highly and control their leg muscles in coordination with their foot movements during electric surfboard competitions. However, insufficient adhesion between the sole of the foot and the board's insole increases the difficulty of control, especially when making turns, which can easily lead to loss of control. To address this, we propose a special footpad for competitive electric surfboards and its biomimetic adhesion method. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a footpad for competitive electric surfboards and its biomimetic adsorption method. The footpad has a dual biomimetic adsorption effect, which increases the adsorption force between the athlete and the surfboard. At the same time, the adsorption force can be instantly removed by lateral sliding, so that the surfboard and the athlete become one, making it easier to control and saving energy. It solves the problem that insufficient adsorption force between the athlete's foot and the board's shoe support increases the difficulty of control, especially when making turning maneuvers, which makes it easy to lose control.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a foot pad for a competitive electric surfboard, comprising surfing shoes, wherein the bottom of the surfing shoes is provided with an absorbent insole, and the top of the absorbent insole is provided with a heel absorbent component, a foot absorbent component, an auxiliary absorbent groove, and a toe absorbent component in sequence from left to right; the inner surface of the surfing shoes is provided with a spare fixing hole; the toe absorbent component includes a first biomimetic absorbent cavity, a rhomboid protrusion, and an elliptical biomimetic negative pressure airbag; the heel absorbent component and the foot absorbent component each include a spherical biomimetic negative pressure airbag and a second biomimetic absorbent cavity; and biomimetic telescopic grooves are provided on the inner sides of the first biomimetic absorbent cavity and the second biomimetic absorbent cavity.
[0005] Preferably, the heel adsorption component is located at the heel of the insole, and the number of heel adsorption components is seven; the foot adsorption component is located at the foot of the insole, and the number of foot adsorption components is eleven; the heel adsorption component and the foot adsorption component are located inside the auxiliary adsorption groove of the insole.
[0006] Preferably, the first biomimetic adsorption cavity is disposed on the inner side of the rhomboid protrusion, and the elliptical biomimetic negative pressure airbag is disposed on the inner side of the first biomimetic adsorption cavity.
[0007] Preferably, the second biomimetic adsorption acupoint is located inside the heel adsorption component and the foot adsorption component, and the spherical biomimetic negative pressure airbag is located inside the second biomimetic adsorption acupoint.
[0008] Preferably, the toe adsorption component is located at the toe of the adsorption insole, and the first biomimetic adsorption hole and the elliptical biomimetic negative pressure airbag are both elliptical, and the inner sides of the elliptical biomimetic negative pressure airbag and the spherical biomimetic negative pressure airbag are connected to the bottom of the adsorption insole.
[0009] A biomimetic adsorption method for a foot pad specifically designed for competitive electric surfboards includes the following steps:
[0010] Step 1: Athletes attach the absorbent insoles to the surfboard shoe mount through the fixing holes or place them directly on the competitive electric surfboard. No fixing is required when placing them directly.
[0011] Step 2: After the athlete puts on the surfing shoes, he steps directly onto the absorbent insole. The athlete's own weight will expel the air from the oval-shaped and spherical bionic negative pressure airbags through the bottom of the absorbent insole, completing the absorption of the bottom of the insole and the shoe support.
[0012] Step 3: The athlete's own weight will expel the air from the first and second bionic adsorption holes, creating negative pressure. Due to the effect of the bionic stretch grooves, the heel adsorption components, foot adsorption components, and toe adsorption components will be more likely to adsorb onto the athlete's feet. In addition, the insole auxiliary adsorption grooves will also generate adsorption on other force-bearing surfaces, making the adsorption force even greater.
[0013] Step 4: When it is necessary to remove the adhesion, the athlete only needs to twist slightly to the side.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0015] 1. This invention uses biomimetic principles to have a strong adsorption effect, which increases the dynamic coordination between athletes and electric surfing, saves athletes' physical strength, and improves turning efficiency.
[0016] 2. This invention fully considers the standing posture of human surfers and the force on the bottom of the feet. The adsorption components are arranged at the points where the force is concentrated, and the toe area adopts a five-diamond protrusion design, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also increases the wear resistance of the toes.
[0017] 3. The insole of this invention is convenient to carry, easy to install, and can be placed directly on the surface of an electric surfboard. Attached Figure Description

The inner surface of the surf shoes 1 is provided with a spare fixing hole 8. The toe absorbent component 5 includes a first bionic absorbent hole 6, a diamond-shaped protrusion 9, and an elliptical bionic negative pressure airbag 10. The heel absorbent component 3 and the foot absorbent component 4 both include a spherical bionic negative pressure airbag 12 and a second bionic absorbent hole 13. The inner sides of the first bionic absorbent hole 6 and the second bionic absorbent hole 13 are provided with bionic telescopic grooves 11.
[0026] The heel adsorption component 3 is located at the heel of the adsorption insole 2, and there are seven heel adsorption components 3. The foot adsorption component 4 is located at the foot of the adsorption insole 2, and there are eleven foot adsorption components 4. The heel adsorption component 3 and the foot adsorption component 4 are located on the inner side of the auxiliary adsorption groove 7 of the insole.
[0027] The first biomimetic adsorption cavity 6 is located inside the rhomboid protrusion 9, and the elliptical biomimetic negative pressure airbag 10 is located inside the first biomimetic adsorption cavity 6.
[0028] The second biomimetic adsorption acupoint 13 is located inside the heel adsorption component 3 and the foot adsorption component 4, and the spherical biomimetic negative pressure airbag 12 is located inside the second biomimetic adsorption acupoint 13.
[0029] The toe adsorption component 5 is located at the toe of the adsorption insole 2. The first bionic adsorption hole 6 and the elliptical bionic negative pressure airbag 10 are both elliptical, and the inner sides of the elliptical bionic negative pressure airbag 10 and the spherical bionic negative pressure airbag 12 are connected to the bottom of the adsorption insole 2.
[0030] A biomimetic adsorption method for a foot pad specifically designed for competitive electric surfboards includes the following steps:
[0031] Step 1: The athlete fixes the absorbent insole 2 to the surfboard shoe mount through the fixing hole 8 or places it directly on the competitive electric surfboard. No fixing is required when placing it directly.
[0032] Step 2: After the athlete puts on surfing rubber shoes 1, he steps directly onto the absorbent insole 2.
