Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a detachable shoe cover, and more particularly to a detachable shoe cover for a dispenser device and a method thereof, wherein the dispenser device and the shoe covers stored and dispensed by the dispenser device are configured to allow each shoe cover to be easily and conveniently detached from the dispenser device in a safe and secure manner without twisting and damaging the shoe cover. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of science and technology, the manufacturing of some products must be completed in a cleanroom. Therefore, before entering a cleanroom, people must wear cleanroom clothing and clean, disposable shoe covers to prevent contamination. Furthermore, shoe cover assemblies and shoe cover dispensers are widely used in furniture, factories, model homes, hospitals, cleanrooms, and other locations requiring high cleanliness.

[0003] Conventional shoe cover dispensers are complex and difficult to operate. Some shoe covers require the user to manually pull them out during application, making them inconvenient to don. The inventor of the present invention, in U.S. Patents Nos. 9764889, 9771207, 9834368, and 11478098, disclose a shoe cover dispenser that facilitates the donning of shoe covers, allows for the integrated storage of multiple pairs of shoe covers, and automatically opens the shoe covers sequentially for donning.

[0004] In order to allow the perforations of each shoe cover to pass from the top to the end of the mounting arm of the dispenser, the first end of the mounting arm is locked by a first locking member, and then the second end of the mounting arm can be free and released from the second locking member and removed from the second end, so that the plurality of shoe covers can be ready for dispensing from the second end of the mounting arm. However, the first and second locking members of the locking assembly must be constructed as simply as possible in a reliable manner, and the user must install the first and second locking members accurately and securely to ensure a smooth dispensing operation. Therefore, it would be a desirable innovative improvement to construct the dispenser so that shoe covers can be dispensed smoothly without the need for the relatively complicated locking and releasing operations of the locking assembly.

[0005] The dispenser disclosed in the aforementioned related patent requires that each row of two front perforations of a rear shoe cover partially pass through a row of two rear engagement perforations of an adjacent front shoe cover, exposing a row of two front engagement perforations that allows each connecting rod to pass through the front engagement perforations, thereby allowing multiple shoe covers to be connected in series via two connecting rods. This is a favorable arrangement because mounting the shoe cover on the two connecting rods only requires the two connecting rods to pass through one row of rear engagement perforations. However, as the shoe cover is pulled out by a tensile force, the connection between the shoe cover and the locking assembly may become increasingly stuck on the mounting arm, creating resistance to the shoe cover's movement along the mounting arm. Consequently, occasionally, when a shoe cover fails to move smoothly on the mounting arm, is removed from the mounting arm without resistance, or even breaks, the user must stop the dispenser to remove the stuck or damaged shoe cover and reset the dispenser machine to resume operation. Summary of the Invention

[0006] An advantage of the present invention is that it provides a dispenser apparatus for removable shoe covers having mounting arms that are rigidly mounted to a frame without requiring a locking assembly while allowing the shoe covers to be smoothly moved along the mounting arms for dispensing.

[0116] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are for illustrative purposes only, and those skilled in the art will readily appreciate other obvious variations. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description may be applied to other embodiments, variations, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0117] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , a dispenser device for removable shoe covers 90 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The dispenser device includes a mounting assembly 10, a frame 20 and a separator 30.

[0118] The mounting assembly 10 is mounted in the frame 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 11 As shown, the mounting assembly 10 includes a pair of elongated mounting arms 11, 12 for mounting the removable shoe covers 90, wherein the two mounting arms 11, 12 are arranged and constructed to provide a dispenser device 101 at the ends 111, 112 of the mounting arms 11, 12 for guiding a frontmost removable shoe cover 901 among the removable shoe covers 90 mounted in the mounting assembly 10 to be dispensed in an open state for wearing. The separator 30 is provided at the ends 111, 121 of the mounting arms 11, 12 for separating the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 from the mounting arms 11, 12 after the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is worn on a shoe of a user.

[0119] like Figure 11 As shown, the frame 20 is a structure that supports a pair of mounting arms 11 and 12 extending in parallel from a rear end to a front end of the frame 20 to define a mounting device 102, a transition device 103 and the distributor device 101 of the mounting assembly 10.

[0120] Specifically, the two mounting arms 11 and 12 extend parallel to each other and have a predetermined length, with a mounting distance ID defined therebetween. This allows multiple removable shoe covers 90 to be stacked in series and secured along the mounting device 102. In other words, the longer the mounting device 102, the more removable shoe covers 90 it can accommodate and carry for distribution. The two mounting arms 11 and 12 extend forward and parallel at their front ends 111 and 121, defining a dispenser distance DD to form the dispenser device 101. This dispenser distance DD is greater than the mounting distance ID. The two mounting arms 11 and 12 gradually extend forward and outward symmetrically from the mounting device 102 to the dispenser device 101, forming the transition device 103.

[0121] See Figure 5A Each of the removable shoe covers 90 includes a shoe cover body 91 having a receiving cavity 92, an elastic opening edge portion 93 defining an opening 94, and an interconnection device 95 for interconnecting the removable shoe covers 90 to be installed in the dispenser device. The interconnection device 95 includes a front portion of the shoe cover body 91, a rear portion of the shoe cover body 91, two front engagement through-holes 951 provided in the front portion, and two rear engagement through-holes 952 provided in the rear portion, and is used to interconnect each of the plurality of removable shoe covers 90 with another adjacent removable shoe cover 90 in the plurality of removable shoe covers 90 along the two mounting arms 11, 12 for installation in the dispenser device.

[0122] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each removable shoe cover 90 further includes an annular elastic member 96 disposed around an opening edge 931 of the elastic opening edge portion 93 to provide a spring force to expand to open the opening 94 for wearing on a user's shoe, and to retract to reduce the size of the opening for securing the shoe to the user. The front engagement through-hole 951 is formed below the elastic member 96, and the interconnecting member 950 is also connected to a position below the elastic member 96.

[0123] The interconnection means 95 of the removable shoe cover 90 can be implemented in a variety of ways. Figure 5A and Figure 5B The interconnection device 95 of the detachable shoe cover 90 further includes two interconnection members 950 integrally connected to the rear portion of the elastic opening edge portion 93, two front engagement through-holes 951 formed in a front portion of the elastic opening edge portion 93, and two rear engagement through-holes 952 respectively formed in the two interconnection members 950. Figure 5CAccording to a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the detachable shoe cover 90 to be separated from the mounting assembly 10 under tension, a detachable line 953 extends from the rear engagement through-hole 952 thereof to an edge of the interconnection member 950. The detachable line 953 can be implemented as a plurality of tiny perforations formed in the interconnection member 950, which is thinner than the thickness of the interconnection member 950.

[0124] See Figure 6 In order to interconnect the detachable shoe covers 90 connected in series with the two mounting arms 11 and 12 one by one, the two interconnecting members 950 of each detachable shoe cover 90 are respectively passed from one outer side to one inner side through the two front engaging through-holes 951 of the subsequent detachable shoe cover 90, and then the two interconnecting members 950 are respectively passed through the two rear engaging through-holes 952 of the two interconnecting members 950 and hung on the two mounting arms 11 and 12, so that the multiple detachable shoe covers 90 are installed along the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting assembly 10. For the convenience of explanation, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the removable shoe cover 90 is stretched to an open state to illustrate the interconnection structure between the interconnection member 950, the front and rear engagement through-holes 951, 952 and the two mounting arms 11, 12. Figure 1 As shown, the multiple detachable shoe covers 90 installed in the mounting device 102 of the mounting assembly 10 are stacked in sequence along the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting assembly 10 to maximize the storage capacity of the detachable shoe covers 90.

[0125] See Figure 4 and Figure 5A The first distance between the two interconnecting members 950 is generally equal to the second distance between the two front engagement through-holes 951, wherein each of the first distance and the second distance is approximately equal to the dispenser distance DD between the two parallel mounting arms 11, 12 in the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10, so that each of the detachable shoe covers 90 can be extended to the open state by the two mounting arms 11, 12 in the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10. In addition, the elastic element 96 is configured to normally contract and reduce the size of the opening 94, that is, the first distance between the two interconnecting members 950 and the second distance between the two front engagement through-holes 951 are correspondingly reduced to match the installation distance ID between the two parallel mounting arms 11, 12 in the mounting device 102, which is narrower than the dispenser distance DD. Figure 4 shown.

[0126] In order to facilitate the installation of the plurality of detachable shoe covers 90 in the installation assembly 10, the plurality of shoe covers 90 are pre-installed on a pair of tubular connecting rods 200 to form a shoe cover package 900. Figures 3A to 3B As shown, the length of the connecting rod 200 is implemented to be shorter than or equal to the length of the portion of the mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting device 102 of the mounting assembly 10, the distance between the two connecting rods 200 is equal to the mounting distance ID of the two mounting arms 11, 12, and the diameter of the tube hole of the connecting rod 200 is preferably slightly larger than the diameter of the mounting arms 11, 12. It can be understood that in order to facilitate storage and transportation, the shoe cover bag set 900 can be pre-assembled at its supplier or seller. In addition, the shoe cover bag set 900 makes it more convenient for the detachable shoe cover 90 to be installed in the mounting assembly 10. See Figure 3A The shoe cover bag set 900 can be installed on the mounting arms 11 and 12 by simply inserting the mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting device 102 of the mounting assembly 10 into the two connecting rods 200 of the shoe cover bag set 900.

[0127] See Figure 3B By pulling out the two connecting rods 200, it becomes very easy to install the multiple detachable shoe covers 90 along the installation arms 11 and 12, so that the interconnecting members 950 of the detachable shoe covers 90 are hung on the installation arms 11 and 12. That is, the two installation arms 11 and 12 are respectively provided with the two rear engaging through-holes 952 of the two interconnecting members 950 of each detachable shoe cover 90, and the two interconnecting members 950 of each detachable shoe cover 90 extend from the outside to the inside through the front engaging through-holes 951 of the adjacent detachable shoe cover 90, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 shown.

[0128] It is worth mentioning that the mounting assembly 10 of the present invention effectively simplifies the structure and minimizes the manufacturing steps and costs through the arc-shaped structure of the mounting arms 11 and 12, without requiring any complex and additional components. The symmetrical structure of the slender and curved mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting assembly 10 defines the mounting device 102, the transition device 103 and the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10, wherein after the package of the plurality of detachable shoe covers 90 is mounted on the mounting device 102, the transition device 103 and the dispenser device 101 are removed. Figure 3B and Figure 4The distance between the portions of the mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting device 102 is substantially equal to the distance between the two interconnecting members 950 of each of the plurality of removable shoe covers 90, so that each removable shoe cover 90 is in a normal state and does not stretch to open its opening 94, and thus the plurality of removable shoe covers 90 are stacked together in the mounting device 102. In the transition device 103 of the mounting assembly 10, the two mounting arms 11 and 12 gradually extend forward and outward, and in the absence of any pulling force applied to the frontmost removable shoe cover 901, the removable shoe cover 90 installed in the mounting device 102 is substantially restricted from moving forward, as shown in FIG. Figure 3B As shown, the detachable shoe cover 90 is guided to move gradually and smoothly along the mounting arms 11 , 12 to the dispenser device 101 .

[0129] See Figures 1 to 4 The separator 30 is preferably arranged at a front portion of the dispenser device 101, i.e., at the front end of the mounting arms 11, 12 according to the preferred embodiment and is configured to separate the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902 by separating the interconnection device 95, i.e., according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5C As shown, the interconnecting member 950 is separated at the detachable line 953 thereon.

[0130] See Figure 4 When a pulling force is applied forward to the frontmost removable shoe cover 901, the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is pulled forward and unfolded between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 in the open state. Meanwhile, in the transition device 103 between the two mounting arms 11 and 12, a front portion of a subsequent removable shoe cover 902 among the plurality of removable shoe covers 90, including its two front engagement holes 951, is simultaneously pulled partially open. Because the distance between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 is wider than that of the mounting device 102, when the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 extends into the dispenser device 101, the transition device 103 essentially forms a rear retaining structure to restrict the rear portion of the extended frontmost removable shoe cover 901 from extending back into the mounting device 102. In order to keep the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 in the dispenser device 101 in the open state, the mounting assembly 10 further includes a front retaining structure 40 for limiting the front portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 to remain in the open state, that is, the elastic element 96 stretches out and extends to open the opening 94 sufficiently for the user to place his or her shoes into the receiving cavity 92 of the removable shoe cover 90, as shown in FIG. Figure 5A shown.

[0131] See also Figure 4 To dispense a removable shoe cover 90 , the user can simply place his or her shoe into the receiving chamber 92 through the opening 94 to put the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 on the shoe, and then move the worn frontmost removable shoe cover 901 forward until the two interconnecting members 950 reach the separator 30 . Therefore, a continuous forward movement of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 away from the dispenser device 101 not only pulls the interconnecting member 950 toward the separator 30 until the interconnecting member 950 is broken by the separator 30 to separate the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902 and separate it from the mounting assembly 10, forming a separated removable shoe cover 901' worn on the user's shoe, wherein the previous subsequent removable shoe cover 902 is also pulled to move the dispenser device 101 to become the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 opened in the dispenser device 101 for wearing, and the next removable shoe cover 90 interconnected with the original subsequent removable shoe cover 902 is also pulled forward at the transition device 103 to be partially opened, forming the current subsequent removable shoe cover 902 of the current frontmost removable shoe cover 901.

[0132] refer to 7A to 7C According to a preferred embodiment, the mounting assembly 10 further comprises a pair of connectors 13, 14, which are rigidly mounted between the frame 20 and the front ends of the pair of mounting arms 11, 12, so as to rigidly support the pair of mounting arms 11, 12 on the frame 20 in a parallel manner. Figure 7A As shown, each of the connectors 13, 14 can be a connecting member extending integrally between the frame 20 and the corresponding mounting arm 11, 12 by welding. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that multiple supporting elements can be used to support the mounting arms 11, 12 to the frame in a stable and rigid manner. For example, each of the connectors 13, 14 can be an L-shaped mounting member 13', 14', one end of which is integrally welded to the corresponding mounting arm 11, 12 and the other end is screwed to the frame 20, as shown. Figure 7B Alternatively, each of the connectors 13", 14" may be configured to be integrally connected at one end to the frame 20 and a tubular holder to fit over and hold the front end portions 111, 121 of the corresponding mounting arms 11, 12 in place in a rigid and secure manner, as shown. Figure 7C shown.

[0133] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the separator 30 preferably includes a pair of resistance separation members 31, 32 provided on the front end portions 111, 121 of the mounting arms 11, 12, each of which is configured to disconnect the detachable line 953 of the interconnecting member 950 suspended to the corresponding mounting arms 11, 12 when the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 is pulled to move forward from the mounting arms 11, 12, wherein the two interconnecting members 950 of the pulled-out frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 intersect with the separation members 31, 32 at the positions of the two separation members 31, 32, respectively, and the continuous forward movement of the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 will apply a shear force to each interconnecting member 950 against the corresponding separation member 31, 32, and the interconnecting members 950 will disconnect at the dotted detachable line 953, generally allowing the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 to be separated from the mounting assembly 10 of the dispenser device, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 shown.

[0134] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the two separation members 31 , 32 may be integrally provided between the connectors 13 , 14 and the two mounting arms 11 , 12 , respectively.

[0135] It can be understood that the two connectors 13, 14, such as Figure 1 and 7A to 7C As shown, the separator 31 and 32 can also be used as the separating members 31 and 32, as long as the connectors 13 and 14 are strong enough to disconnect and / or separate the interconnection member 950, wherein the formation of the detachable line 953 does facilitate the disconnection and / or separation of the interconnection member 950. Similarly, the separating members 31 and 32 can also be configured to serve as the connectors 13 and 14, so that the separator 30 not only provides a separation configuration and capability for the detachable shoe cover 90, but also provides a support function for the mounting arms 11 and 12, thereby further simplifying the structure and reducing the weight of the dispenser device of the present invention.

[0136] See Figure 8, shows an alternative mode of the separator 30, wherein the separator 30 can be configured as a cutting separator 30A, wherein a cutter 311, 321 is installed obliquely on each of the separating members 31, 32, while the cutting blades 3111, 321 of the cutters 311, 321 are tilted backward toward the installed removable shoe cover 90, and both sides of the cutters 311, 321 are embedded in the separating members 31, 32, and the mounting arms 11, 12 respectively provide a strong and rigid configuration for the separating members 31, 32 and the dispenser device 101. Accordingly, when the interconnecting member 950 of each removable shoe cover 90 moves forward and abuts against the cutters 311, 321, the cutters 311, 321 will cut the interconnecting member 950, separating the removable shoe cover 90 from the mounting assembly 10. Therefore, even if the interconnection member 950 is not provided with the detachable wire 953 , the cutter can still easily cut the interconnection member 950 .

[0137] The key to the cutting separator 30A is that the cutters 311 and 321 are made into various shapes, as long as the cutting blades 3111 and 3211 are formed on the separation members 31 and 32 facing the rear. Figures 9A to 9C An alternative mode of the cutting separator 30A is shown in FIG.

[0138] like Figure 9A As shown, the cutting separator 30A specifically includes a pair of triangular cutters 311', 321', which are respectively located near the connectors 13, 14 and protrude from the front ends of the mounting arms 11, 12, so that the interconnecting member 950 is cut off by the cutters 311', 321' and separated from the mounting arms 11, 12, thereby removing the detachable shoe cover 90 from the mounting assembly 10.

[0139] like Figure 9B As shown, each cutter 311", 321" having a cutting blade facing rearward is installed on the top of the separation members 31, 32 to form the cutting separator 30A, so that the interconnecting member 950 is cut by the cutter 311", 321" and separated from the mounting arms 11, 12, thereby removing the detachable shoe cover 90 from the mounting assembly 10.

[0140] like Figure 9CAs shown, the separation members 31, 32 are mounted on the top of the connectors 13, 14, and each cutter 311 having a rearward-facing cutting blade extends downward from the separation members 31, 32 to the mounting arms 11, 12 to form the cutting separator 30A, so that the interconnecting member 950 is cut off by the cutters 311, 321 and separated from the mounting arms 11, 12, thereby removing the detachable shoe cover 90 from the mounting assembly 10.

[0141] Figure 10A FIG. 1 shows a pair of parallel and symmetrical linear mounting arms 11, 12 as described in the preferred embodiment above. Figure 10B 1 , which is another embodiment of the mounting arms 11 and 12, wherein the pair of mounting arms 11' and 12' are formed into an L-shape and supported on the frame 20 in parallel and symmetrically to form the mounting assembly 10. The mounting arms 11' and 12' extend horizontally and in parallel to define the distributor device 101, bend, extend inward and upward to define the transition device 103, and then extend parallel and upward to define the mounting device 102. The L-shaped mounting arms 11' and 12' are supported to the L-shaped frame 20' to form the mounting assembly 10. Figure 12 An alternative mode of the dispenser device shown is essentially used as the linear mounting arms 11, 12, as shown Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the upwardly inclined upper portions of the mounting arms 11 ′, 12 ′ can provide a larger space for mounting more of the detachable shoe covers 90 thereon for use.

[0142] According to the present invention, Figure 1-4 and Figure 10A-12 As shown, the pair of mounting arms 11, 12 are configured to have a funnel structure, which defines the narrow and parallel mounting device 102, the curved transition device 103, and the wide and parallel dispenser device 101, wherein the transition device 103 of the mounting assembly 10 can serve as the rear retaining structure to limit the rear portion of the extended frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 from returning to the mounting device 102. However, the mounting assembly 10 may also include a rear retaining device 50 on the transition device 103.

[0143] See Figure 13A The rear retaining device 50 includes a retaining rod 51 extending transversely across the portion of the mounting arms 11 and 12 in the transition device 103, and a retaining member 52 extending downward from the retaining rod 51 and configured to extend into the accommodating cavity 92 of the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 to limit the rear portion of the extended frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 from re-extending into the mounting device 102.

[0144] Figure 13B An alternative mode of the rear retaining device 50A is shown, which includes a pair of retainers 51A, which extend downward from portions of the mounting arms 11, 12 in the transition device 103 and are configured to extend into the accommodating cavity 92 of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 to limit the rear portion of the extended frontmost removable shoe cover 901 from re-extending back into the mounting device 102.

[0145] See Figure 1-4 and Figures 14A-14C , various embodiments of the front retaining structure 40 suitable for being equipped in the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 are shown as examples.

[0146] like Figure 1-4 and Figure 14A As shown, the front retaining structure 40 includes a pair of L-shaped retainers 41 and a retaining rod 412, each L-shaped retainer 41 has a support member 411 extending laterally from the frame 20, positioned behind the separator 30, and spanning the corresponding mounting arms 11, 12, and the retaining rod 412 extends downward from a free end of the support member 411 into the accommodating cavity 92 of the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 to limit the front portion of the extended frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 from re-extending into the mounting device 102, so that the rear retaining structure (rear retaining device 50) in the dispenser device 101 keeps the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 in the open state.

[0147] Figure 14B An alternative mode of the front retaining structure 40' is described in the figure, wherein the front retaining structure 40' includes a pair of retaining rods 412', which extend downward from the mounting arms 11 and 12 and extend into the accommodating cavity of the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901, so as to limit the front part of the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 extending out from the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 and extend back into the mounting device 102 again, so that the rear retaining structure (rear retaining device 50) in the dispenser device 101 keeps the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901 in the open state.

[0148] Figure 14C Another alternative mode of the front retaining structure 40" is shown, which includes a pair of clip-type retainers 410", which are configured to be clamped on the mounting arms 11 and 12 at desired positions, respectively, to allow the user to adjust the position of the retainers 410" on the mounting arms 11 and 12. In other words, the front retaining structure 40" can be configured to be adjustable to accommodate the removable shoe covers 90 of different sizes.

[0149] According to the present invention, the funnel structure of the pair of mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting assembly 10 is combined with and equipped with the separator 30 mounted on the frame 20, so that the shoe cover 90 can be configured in a detachable manner. In other words, the dispenser device of the present invention can provide multiple modes of detachable shoe covers 90. Figures 5A to 5C An example has been disclosed. Figures 15A to 31C , an alternative mode of dispensing the removable shoe cover 90 by the dispenser device is disclosed below.

[0150] See Figures 15A to 17 , is a schematic diagram of a first alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90A according to the present invention, wherein the detachable shoe cover 90A is Figure 5A The detachable shoe cover 90 shown has the same structure, which includes the shoe cover body 91 having the accommodating cavity 92, the elastic opening edge portion 93 defining the opening 94, and the interconnection device 95 for interconnecting the detachable shoe cover 90A to be installed in the dispenser device. Figure 15B As shown, each of the detachable shoe covers 90A further comprises the annular elastic element 96, which is disposed around the opening edge 931 of the elastic opening edge portion 93 to provide elastic action to open the opening 94 for wearing on a shoe of a user and retract to reduce the size of the opening 94 to be fixed to the shoe of the user. Figure 5A The difference of the detachable shoe cover 90 shown is that the two rear interconnecting members 950 are replaced by two rear engaging through-holes 952 , so that two front engaging through-holes 951 and two rear engaging through-holes 952 are formed below the elastic element 96 .

[0151] According to the first alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90A, Figure 15B As shown, a sealing portion 97 is formed between the opening edge 931 and each of the front and rear joint through-holes 951, 952 by heat pressing to reinforce the material between the opening edge 931 of the detachable shoe cover 90A and each of the front and rear joint through-holes 951, 952, and a detachable line 953A is formed from the opening edge 931 and extends to each of the front and rear joint through-holes 951, 952.

[0152] See Figure 16In order to connect the detachable shoe cover 90A and the two mounting arms 11, 12 in series one by one, the rear portion of the detachable shoe cover 90A extends into the accommodating cavity 92 and is located behind the front portion of the subsequent detachable shoe cover 90A, wherein the two rear engagement through-holes 952 of the detachable shoe cover 90A are aligned with the two front engagement through-holes 951 of the subsequent detachable shoe cover 90A, and the two mounting arms 11, 12 are respectively extended to connect the multiple detachable shoe covers 90A to each other along the two mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting assembly 10. For ease of explanation, as shown in FIG. Figure 16 As shown, the removable shoe cover 90A is stretched to an open state to illustrate the interconnection structure of the front and rear engagement through-holes 951, 952 and the two mounting arms 11, 12. Figure 17 As shown, the multiple detachable shoe covers 90A installed in the installation device 102 of the installation assembly 10 are stacked in sequence along the two installation arms 11 and 12 of the installation assembly 10 to maximize the storage capacity of the detachable shoe covers 90A.

[0153] See Figure 17 The separator 30 is preferably arranged at a front portion of the distributor device 101, i.e., the front end of the mounting arms 11, 12 according to a preferred embodiment, and is configured to separate the interconnection device 95, i.e., separate the sealing portion 97 (e.g., Figure 15B ), the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A is separated from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902A, so that the two mounting arms 11 and 12 can be moved out of the front and rear engagement through-holes 951 and 952, thereby separating the removable shoe cover 90A from the mounting assembly 10. When the detachable line 953A is formed across the sealing portion 97, the sealing portion 97 will be separated at the detachable line 953A.

[0154] When the separator 30 is a cutting separator including the cutters 311 , 312 , separating the sealing portion 97 is more effective, and the cutting separator can easily cut the sealing portion 97 of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A when being pulled forward in the dispenser device 101 .

[0155] It is worth mentioning that when the sealing portion 97 is cut and separated, the elastic element 96 is also cut at the sealing portion 97, but the sealing portion 97 is fused with the elastic element 96 to prevent the elastic element 96 from falling out and maintain the elastic retention ability of the detachable shoe cover 90A when worn on the user's shoes.

[0156] See Figure 17When a forward pulling force is applied to the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901A, the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901A is pulled forward and stretches between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 in the open state, and in the transition device 103 between the two mounting arms 11 and 12, the front portion of a subsequent detachable shoe cover 902A among the plurality of detachable shoe covers 90A is simultaneously pulled to partially open. Since the distance between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 is wider than that of the mounting device 102, when the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901A extends to the dispenser device 101, the transition device 103 basically forms the rear retaining structure (or by Figure 13A and Figure 13B The rear retaining structure 50 is shown to restrict the rear portion of the protruding frontmost removable shoe cover 901A from re-extending into the mounting device 102. In addition, the front retaining structure 40 restricts the front portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A from remaining in the open state, and the elastic member 96 is extended and extended to open the opening 94 sufficiently for the user to place his or her shoes into the receiving cavity 92 of the removable shoe cover 90A.

[0157] To dispense a removable shoe cover 90A, the user can simply place his or her shoe through the opening 94 into the receiving chamber 92 to put the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A on the shoe, and then move the worn frontmost removable shoe cover 901A forward until the sealing portion 97 near the rear engagement perforation 952 of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A and the front engagement perforation 951 of the subsequent removable shoe cover 902A reaches the separator 30. Therefore, the continuous forward movement of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A away from the dispenser device 101 not only pulls the sealing portion 97 toward the separator 30 until the sealing portion 97 is broken by the separator 30 or cut by the cutting separator 30A, so as to separate the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902A and separate it from the mounting assembly 10, forming a removable removable shoe cover 901A' worn on the user's shoes, wherein the previous subsequent removable shoe cover 902A is also pulled to move the dispenser device 101 to become the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A opened in the dispenser device 101 for wearing, and the next removable shoe cover 90A connected to the original subsequent removable shoe cover 902A is also pulled forward at the transition device 103 to be partially opened, forming the current subsequent removable shoe cover 902A of the current frontmost removable shoe cover 901A.

[0158] See Figures 18 to 20 , is a schematic diagram of a second alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90B according to the present invention, wherein the detachable shoe cover 90B is Figure 5A The detachable shoe covers 90 shown have the same structure, which includes the shoe cover body 91 having the accommodating cavity 92, the elastic opening edge portion 93 defining the opening 94, and the interconnection device 95 for interconnecting the detachable shoe covers 90B to be installed in the dispenser device. Similarly, each detachable shoe cover 90B also includes an elastic element 96, which is arranged around an opening edge 931 of the elastic opening edge portion 93 to provide an elastic action to open the opening 94 for wearing on a user's shoe and retracting to reduce the size of the opening 94 to maintain it on the user's shoe. The second alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90B is the same as Figure 5A The difference of the detachable shoe cover 90 shown is that the two front engagement holes 951 of the interconnection device 95 are replaced by two other interconnection members 950, each of which has an engagement hole 952, such as Figure 5C shown.

[0159] See Figure 19 In order to interconnect the interconnected detachable shoe covers 90B with the two mounting arms 11, 12 one by one, the two rear interconnecting members 950 of each detachable shoe cover 90B are respectively inserted into the two engaging through-holes 952 of the front interconnecting member 950 of a subsequent detachable shoe cover 90B, and then the two interconnecting members 950 of the two rear interconnecting members 950 respectively pass through the two mounting arms 11, 12 through the two engaging through-holes 952 of the two rear interconnecting members 950 and are respectively hung on the two mounting arms 11, 12, so that the multiple detachable shoe covers 90B are installed along the two mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting assembly 10. For ease of explanation, the detachable shoe cover 90B is stretched to an open state, as shown in FIG. Figure 19 , to illustrate the front and rear pair of interconnecting members 950, the engaging through-holes 952 of the front and rear pair of interconnecting members 950, and the interconnecting structure between the two mounting arms 11, 12. Figure 20 As shown, the multiple detachable shoe covers 90B installed in the installation device 102 of the installation assembly 10 are stacked in sequence along the two installation arms 11 and 12 of the installation assembly 10 to maximize the storage capacity of the detachable shoe covers 90B.

[0160] See Figure 20The separator 30 is preferably arranged at a front portion of the dispenser device 101, that is, the separating members 31, 32 according to the preferred embodiment are respectively arranged at the front ends of the mounting arms 11, 12, for separating the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901B from the subsequent detachable shoe cover 902B by separating the interconnection device 95, that is, separating the rear interconnection member 950 at the detachable line 953 thereon, as shown in FIG. Figure 5C As shown. When the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901B applies a pulling force forward, the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901B is pulled forward and stretches between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 in the open state, and in the transition device 103 between the two mounting arms 11 and 12, the front portion of a subsequent detachable shoe cover 902B among the multiple detachable shoe covers 90B is simultaneously pulled to partially open. Since the distance between the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 is wider than that of the mounting device 102, when the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901B extends to the dispenser device 101, the transition device 103 basically forms the rear retaining structure (or by Figure 13A and Figure 13B The rear retaining device 50 shown in the figure is used to restrict the rear portion of the protruding frontmost removable shoe cover 901B from re-extending into the mounting device 102. In addition, the front retaining structure 40 restricts the front portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901B to remain in the open state, and the elastic element 96 is extended and extended to open the opening 94 sufficiently for the user to place his or her shoes into the receiving cavity 92 of the removable shoe cover 90B, as shown in FIG. Figure 20 shown.

[0161] See also Figure 20To dispense a removable shoe cover 90A, the user can simply place his or her shoe into the receiving chamber 92 through the opening 94 to put the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A on the shoe, and then move the worn frontmost removable shoe cover 901A forward until the two interconnecting members 950 reach the separator 30. Therefore, a continuous forward movement of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A away from the dispenser device 101 not only pulls the interconnecting member 950 toward the separator 30 until the rear interconnecting member 950 is broken by the separator 30 to separate the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902A and separate it from the mounting assembly 10, forming a separated removable shoe cover 901A' worn on the user's shoe, wherein the previous subsequent removable shoe cover 902A is also pulled to move the dispenser device 101 to become the frontmost removable shoe cover 901A opened in the dispenser device 101 for wearing, and the next removable shoe cover 90A interconnected with the original subsequent removable shoe cover 902A is also pulled forward at the transition device 103 to partially open, forming the current subsequent removable shoe cover 902A of the current frontmost removable shoe cover 901A.

[0162] See Figures 21A to 22 , is a third alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90C, wherein the third alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90C is similar to the first alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90A, wherein the interconnection device 95 is composed of two front engagement through-holes 951 and two rear engagement through-holes 952, as shown in FIG. Figure 21A However, the third alternative mode of the removable shoe cover 90C is similar to the first alternative mode of the removable shoe cover 90A, except that the annular elastic member 96 is formed below the front and rear engagement holes 951 and 952 of the interconnection device 95, and the four detachable threads 953C extend from the opening edge 931 and the front and rear engagement holes 951 and 952, respectively, thereby eliminating the need for the sealing portion 97. Since the elastic member 96 is provided below the front and rear engagement holes 951 and 952, when the detachable threads 953C are cut and separated by the separator 30 (or the cutting separator 30A), the elastic member 96 is not cut off and can be worn on the user's shoes.

[0163] See Figures 23 to 25, illustrating a fourth alternative mode of a detachable shoe cover 90D. The detachable shoe cover 90D may have a structure similar to the first alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90A, including a shoe cover body 91 having the accommodating cavity 92, the elastic opening edge portion 93 defining the opening 94, and the interconnection device 95 for interconnecting the detachable shoe cover 90D to be installed in the dispenser device, as shown in FIG. Figure 23 The fourth alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90D differs from the detachable shoe covers 90A and 90C disclosed in the first and third embodiments in that the annular elastic element 96 is provided at the opening edge 931 of the elastic opening edge portion 93 to provide elasticity to stretch to open the opening 94 for wearing on the user's shoes and retract to reduce the size of the opening 94 to maintain the shoe on the user, and the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting assembly 10 directly pass through the front and rear engagement through-holes 951 and 952 of the interconnection device 95, as shown. Figure 24 In addition, the interconnection device 95 further includes an interconnection member 950D connecting the rear portion of the detachable shoe cover 90D with the front portion of another subsequent detachable shoe cover 90D, wherein a detachable line 953D is formed through the interconnection member 950D so as to connect the plurality of detachable shoe covers 90D one by one in series when the detachable shoe covers 90D are installed in the installation assembly 10 by passing the two mounting arms 11 and 12 through the front and rear engaging through-holes 951 and 952 of the detachable shoe cover 90D. Figure 24 and Figure 25 shown.

[0164] For ease of explanation, Figure 24 As shown, the removable shoe cover 90D is stretched to an open state to illustrate the interconnection structure between the interconnection member 950D, the front and rear engagement through-holes 951, 952 and the two mounting arms 11, 12. Figure 25 As shown, the plurality of detachable shoe covers 90A installed in the mounting device 102 of the mounting assembly 10 are stacked one by one along the two mounting arms 11 and 12 of the mounting assembly 10 to maximize the storage capacity of the detachable shoe covers 90D.

[0165] refer to Figure 25The separator 30 is preferably a cutting separator 30D disposed between the two mounting arms 11, 12 at the front of the dispenser device 101. Specifically, the two separating members 31, 32 are disposed at the front ends of the mounting arms 11, 12, respectively, for cutting the interconnecting member 950D between the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D and the subsequent removable shoe cover 902D, thereby separating the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902D. Specifically, when a forward pulling force is applied to the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D, the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D is pulled forward and extends between the two mounting arms 11, 12 of the dispenser device 101 in the open state. Simultaneously, the front portion of a subsequent removable shoe cover 902A among the plurality of removable shoe covers 90A is pulled partially open in the transition device 103 between the two mounting arms 11, 12. Since the distance between the two mounting arms 11, 12 of the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 is wider than that of the mounting device 102, when the frontmost detachable shoe cover 901D extends to the dispenser device 101, the transition device 103 basically forms the rear holding structure (or by Figure 13A and Figure 13B The rear retaining structure 50 is shown to restrict the rear portion of the protruding frontmost removable shoe cover 901D from re-extending into the mounting device 102. In addition, the front retaining structure 40 restricts the front portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D from remaining in the open state, and the elastic member 96 is extended and extended to open the opening 94 sufficiently for the user to place his or her shoes into the receiving cavity 92 of the removable shoe cover 90D.

[0166] Similarly, to dispense a removable shoe cover 90D, the user can simply place his or her shoe into the receiving chamber 92 through the opening 94 to put the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D on the shoe, and then move the put-on frontmost removable shoe cover 901D forward until the interconnecting member 950D reaches the separator 30 (cutting separator 30A). Therefore, a continuous forward movement of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D away from the dispenser device 101 not only pulls the interconnecting member 950D toward the separator 30 until the interconnecting member 950D is broken by the separator 30 or severed by the cutting separator 30A, thereby separating the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902D and from the mounting assembly 10, wherein the front and rear engagement perforations 951, 952 of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D slide out of the two mounting arms 11, 12. , forming a detachable removable shoe cover 901D' worn on the user's shoes, and then the previous subsequent removable shoe cover 902D is also pulled to move the dispenser device 101 to become the frontmost removable shoe cover 901D opened in the dispenser device 101 for wearing, and the next removable shoe cover 90D connected to the original subsequent removable shoe cover 902D is also partially opened forward at the transition device 103 to form the current subsequent removable shoe cover 902D of the current frontmost removable shoe cover 901D.

[0167] The following combination Figures 26A to 31C Various modes of separation operations of the various separators 30 of the dispenser device according to the present invention relative to the detachable shoe cover 90 are exemplified.

[0168] like Figures 26A to 26C As shown, the connectors 13 and 14 of the mounting assembly 10 are as shown in FIG. Figure 7A As shown, the separator 30 is implemented to separate Figure 15A and Figure 15B The first alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90A is shown, wherein when the detachable shoe cover 90A moves forward, the detachable line 953 is arranged along an outer side of the mounting arms 11, 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 26A As the detachable shoe cover 90A continues to move forward until the front engagement perforation 951 reaches the separator 30, the forward pulling force tears or cuts the detachable thread 953, thereby separating the detachable shoe cover 90A from the mounting arms 11 and 12. Figure 26B As shown, due to the reinforcement of the sealing portion 97, the elastic element 96 retracts as usual, as shown in FIG. Figure 26C shown. Figures 29A to 29C Shown with Figures 26A to 26CThe same separation operation is performed, but the separator 30 is the cutting separator 30A, which promotes separation by cutting with the cutting blades 311 , 312 .

[0169] like Figures 27A to 27C As shown, the connectors 13 and 14 of the mounting assembly 10 are as shown in FIG. Figure 7A As shown, it is implemented as a separator 30 to separate Figure 5A and Figure 5C The interconnecting member 950 of the detachable shoe cover 90 is shown as Figure 18 The second alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90B is shown as being separated, wherein when the interconnecting member 950 of the detachable shoe cover 90, 90B is moved forward, the detachable line 953 is arranged along an outer side of the mounting arms 11, 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 27A As shown. Figure 27B As shown, when the detachable shoe cover 90A continues to move forward until the interconnection member 950 reaches the separator 30, the forward pulling force will tear or cut the detachable line 953 to separate the interconnection member 950 from the mounting arms 11, 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 27C shown. Figures 30A to 30C Shown with Figures 27A to 27C The same separation operation is performed, but the separator 30 is the cutting separator 30A, which promotes separation by cutting with the cutting blades 311 , 312 .

[0170] like Figures 28A to 28C As shown, the connectors 13 and 14 of the mounting assembly 10 are as shown in FIG. Figure 7A As shown, the separator 30 is implemented to separate Figure 21A and Figure 21B The third alternative mode of the detachable shoe cover 90C is shown, wherein when the detachable shoe cover 90C moves forward, the detachable line 953 is arranged along an outer side of the mounting arms 11, 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 28A When the detachable shoe cover 90C moves forward continuously until the front engagement perforation 951 reaches the separator 30, the forward pulling force will tear or cut the detachable thread 953, thereby separating the detachable shoe cover 90C from the mounting arms 11 and 12. Figure 28B As shown, the elastic element 96 located below the front and rear engagement holes 951, 952 retracts as usual, as shown in FIG. Figure 28C shown. Figures 31A to 31C Shown with Figures 28A to 28C The same separation operation is performed, but the separator 30 is the cutting separator 30A, which promotes separation by cutting with the cutting blades 311 , 312 .

[0171] In summary, the mounting arms 11, 12 are fixedly mounted to the frame 20, and are used to stably and smoothly guide the removable shoe covers 90 (90A-90D) to move to the dispenser device, so that the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 sequentially passes through the front retaining structure 40 and the rear retaining device 50 to open the opening 94 of its accommodating cavity 92, and provide a stable support for the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 so that the user can place his or her shoes into its accommodating cavity 92. The arrangement of the connectors 13, 14 and / or the separating members 31, 32 of the separator 30 relative to the mounting arms 11, 12, respectively, not only provides a secure support for the frontmost removable shoe cover 901, but also cooperates with the interconnection device 95 of the removable shoe cover 90, including the interconnection member 950, the engagement through-holes 951, 952, the sealing portion 97, and / or the various forms of the removable shoe cover 90 (90A-90D) to destroy the opening edge portion 93 or the interconnection member 950 adjacent to the engagement through-holes 951, 952, so that the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 can be separated and disconnected from the mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting assembly 10. When the cutting separator 30A is implemented, the frontmost removable shoe cover 90 (90A-90D) can be easily and accurately detached by cutting the opening edge portion 93 or the interconnection member 950.

[0172] Accordingly, the method for dispensing the detachable shoe covers installed in the dispenser device of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0173] (a) guiding a plurality of interconnected detachable shoe covers 90 (90A-90D) from the mounting device 102 to the dispenser device 101 disposed at the front end portions 111, 121 by a pair of mounting arms 11, 12 of the mounting assembly 10;

[0174] (b) opening a frontmost removable shoe cover 901 among the plurality of removable shoe covers 90 (90A-90D) at the dispenser device 101 to put the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 on the user's shoe placed in the accommodating cavity 92 through the opening 94 thereof; and

[0175] (c) When the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is pulled away from the subsequent removable shoe cover 902, the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is separated from a subsequent removable shoe cover 902 of the plurality of removable shoe covers 90 (90A-90D) by the separator 30 (30A) provided at the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 of the dispenser device.

[0176] In step (b), the rear retaining device 50 and the front retaining structure 40 installed in the dispenser device 101 of the mounting assembly 10 are used to stretch the elastic element 96 disposed around the opening edge portion 93 to open the opening 94, thereby opening the frontmost detachable shoe cover.

[0177] Step (c) further comprises the following steps:

[0178] (c-1) guiding the opening edge portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 to move against the separator 30 until the opening edge portion of the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is broken by the separator 30 to open the engaging penetration holes 951, 952, so that the frontmost removable shoe cover 901 is separated from the mounting assembly 10 of the dispenser device; and
