AI Technical Summary
Existing skating shoes have inflexible and unstable brakes, are difficult to control, have short gliding distances, and are difficult for ordinary people to skate safely.
Two pulleys contact the ground to generate reaction force, and one pulley contacts the brake pad to achieve braking. The L-shaped movable bracket and elastic steel plate enable free switching between walking and gliding modes. The contact and separation between wheels and between wheels and brake pads control gliding and deceleration.
It achieves stable and safe gliding, controllable direction, long gliding distance, reduces gliding difficulty, and increases gliding speed.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a shoe sole glider with a braking function. Specifically, it relates to a glider that allows the feet to freely switch between walking and gliding modes, completely different from the existing T-shaped braking method using brake pads. It employs a wheel-to-wheel and wheel-to-brake pad contact and separation control method to freely switch between gliding and deceleration walking modes, reducing gliding difficulty and increasing gliding speed. Background Technology
[0002] The present invention addresses the problems of existing skating shoes (roller skates, roller skates, etc.), which require high skating skills, are unsafe, are prone to falls, and are difficult for ordinary people to adapt to and glide freely. The main reasons are the lack of brakes and the inflexibility, unstable braking, difficulty in control, low power assistance, and short gliding distance exposed by brake block brakes, T-brakes, etc. These are all problems that the present invention aims to solve. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a system where two pulleys (the drive wheel and the brake wheel) come into contact with each other, rubbing against the ground to generate a reaction force, while another pulley (the control wheel) contacts the brake pads to achieve braking. During walking, all three pulleys are controlled to prevent slippage through wheel-to-wheel and wheel-to-brake pad connections, achieving safety and stability. This solves the problems of unstable center of gravity, difficulty in control, and safety issues common in many gliding shoes. During gliding, all three pulleys simultaneously contact the ground, resulting in a large contact area and stable gliding. The forefoot pushes off the ground to assist gliding, providing strong gliding force and controllable direction. The L-shaped movable support rotates around an axis, changing the positions of the control wheel and brake wheel at both ends of the support and causing the elastic steel sheet to generate two different forces, allowing for free switching between walking and gliding modes. The glider can be integrated with the shoe, allowing for gliding whenever desired, or it can be used separately with various shoes. Attached Figure Description

They are used together with the embodiments of the invention to explain the invention and do not constitute a limitation thereof. In the drawings, the glider is located in the rear half of the sole, with the control wheel, drive wheel, and brake wheel arranged sequentially from front to back.

[0008] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0009] Figure 1 When the glider is gliding, the three pulleys do not contact each other and are in a rolling gliding state. The elastic steel plate 11 bends backward to prevent the pulleys from swinging randomly. The other foot can push off the ground with the ball of the foot to assist gliding. When decelerating, the ball of the foot presses down, the L-shaped movable support 5 rotates around axis 7, the brake wheel 2 contacts the drive wheel 3, generating a backward sliding force; at the same time, the control wheel 4 contacts the brake pad above and stops rotating; the L-shaped elastic steel plate 11 bends forward to prevent the L-shaped movable support 5 from rotating back; thus achieving the switching between deceleration and walking modes.
[0010] Figure 2 When the glider is in walking mode, none of the three pulleys rotate, providing stability and preventing falls. To glide, simply lift the ball of your foot forward and press down with your heel. The brake wheel 2 moves backward and separates from the drive wheel 3. The L-shaped movable support 5 rotates around axis 7, the control wheel 4 separates from the brake pad, and the elastic steel plate 11 bends backward. The three pulleys then slide, completing the switch from walking to gliding mode.

2. The sole-controlled glider according to claim 1, characterized in that: When gliding or walking, the L-shaped movable bracket (5) rotates around axis 1 (7), causing the brake wheel (2) to come into close contact with the drive wheel (3), generating a reverse force through friction with the ground, preventing the wheel from rotating and forming a new braking method.
3. The sole-controlled glider according to claim 1, characterized in that: The L-shaped movable bracket (5) rotates back and forth around axis 1 (7), causing the elastic steel plate (11) to swing back and forth, generating two opposite forces to complete the switching between gliding and braking modes, thus achieving the purpose of freely controlling the glider.
