Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a shoe for guiding self-guided straight walking. Background Art

[0002] Although shoes were originally used to protect the feet, they have been used for a variety of purposes and functions as related technologies have developed. For example, there are shoes that assist in specific sports, such as sneakers, running shoes, basketball shoes, and tennis shoes; there are shoes that are suitable for specific environments, such as sandals, slippers, rain boots, and cold-proof shoes; there are also shoes that are specifically used for specific occupations, such as military boots and safety shoes.

[0003] In addition, there are shoes for correcting O-shaped legs and X-shaped legs or corrective shoes for forming a straight walking habit.

[0004] As an example, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2014-0122152 relates to an insole for straight walking, which discloses an insole having the following characteristics: the insole includes a basic insole and a plurality of Velcro strips overlapping the basic insole, so that the height or tilt angle of the insole can be freely adjusted.

[0005] As another example, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2018-0052004 is a gait correction device using an angle sensor, which proposes a method with the following characteristics. The method uses an angle sensor and Bluetooth to measure whether it is an inward-turned gait or an outward-turned gait. If it is not the correct gait, an alarm sound or vibration is issued to remind.

[0006] However, it is impossible to propose a correct standard for the shoes, and the use of power leads to many difficulties such as difficulty in charging and discharging, difficulty in washing the shoes, and difficulty in correction. Summary of the invention

[0007] Technical issues

[0008] The present invention provides a shoe having the following characteristics, which can guide the wearer to walk straight and, through intuitive use, can help children correct themselves without special instructions.

[0009] The present invention provides a shoe that can guide straight walking through continuous gait correction.

[0010] The present invention provides shoes which do not require power supply and do not cause any trouble in cleaning and the like.

[0011] Technical Solution

[0012] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, a pair of shoes including a sole and an upper can be provided, and linear guides facing inward can be provided. When wearing the shoes, the wearer can walk while keeping the linear guides parallel. For this purpose, the linear guides are preferably separated from the inner side of the shoe so that the linear guides can be observed from the top.

[0013] The linear guide is a structure separated from the upper or the sole of the shoe toward the inside, and is a structure that is parallel to the walking direction with the top as the reference. The linear guide may be curved on the side, but from the perspective of the wearer, that is, from the top, it can actually be straight.

[0014] The linear guide may be formed on the sole of the shoe. Specifically, the sole of the shoe may include a midsole and an outsole, and a portion of the outsole of the linear guide is extended to the inner side of the shoe, so that the linear guide may be formed to the inner side of the shoe, and the shoe on the other side may also form a linear guide to the opposite inner side in the same or similar form.

[0015] The linear guide is not only formed on the outer bottom, but also can be formed on the midsole. For this reason, it can form the linear guide by extending a part of the midsole to the inner side of the shoe.

[0016] The linear guide may be formed integrally with the outsole or midsole, but may be provided with a separate detachable guide portion. The guide portion may include a protrusion or the like so as to be detachably mounted on the inner side of the bottom, and a groove or hole for engaging with the protrusion may be formed on the bottom of the shoe.

[0017] Effects of the Invention

[0018] The present invention relates to shoes for guiding straight walking. When the wearer wears the shoes, the wearer keeps the straight guides parallel, thereby forming a habit of learning to walk straight.

[0019] Young children who are beginning to walk can also consciously develop the habit of walking straight through the linear guide, and adults can also consciously develop the habit of walking straight through the linear guide.

[0020] When a detachable structure such as a guide portion is used, the shoe can be used as a normal shoe or a corrective shoe.

[0021] Compared with the prior art using an angle sensor or a gyro sensor, the present invention does not require the trouble of using a power supply and can prevent the phenomenon of bad habits being solidified due to sensor failure. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited or restricted by the embodiments. For reference, the same number in this specification refers to substantially the same elements, and under the said rules, the contents recorded in other drawings can be cited for description, and the contents that are obvious or repeated to those skilled in the art can be omitted.

[0031] Figure 1 is a diagram for describing a shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 Is used to describe Figure 1 Figure of the use example of shoes, Figure 3 is a diagram for describing a shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 Is used to describe Figure 4 Figure 1 shows an example of the use of shoes.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shoe according to this embodiment may include an upper 110 and a sole for supporting the sole of the foot. The upper 110 is provided in the shape of a common shoe, and the sole may also be provided in the form of a midsole 120 and an outer sole 130.

[0033] In addition, the above-mentioned shoes are not limited to this application, and can also be applied to adult sports shoes, children's shoes, etc.

[0034] In this embodiment, the front portion of the outer sole 130 may be formed in a rectangular shape, and a linear guide 132 may be formed on the inner side. Here, the linear guide 132 may refer to the inner side section of the outer sole 130. Figure 1 As shown in (b), the outer bottom 130 is curved from the side, but as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown in (a), when viewed from the top, it can be seen that the linear guide 132 on the inner side of the outer bottom 130 is in a straight line shape.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, the shoes can be provided as a pair of left and right shoes, and the linear guides 132 can be opposite. The wearer can consciously make the linear guides 132 parallel to each other while walking, thereby forming a habit of walking straight.

[0036] For this reason, preferably the linear guide 132 is separated from the inner side of the shoe, that is, from the inner side of the upper 110, so that the straight line I can also be seen from the top. If the straight line I cannot be seen or cannot be inferred, it is impossible to confirm whether the linear guide 132 is parallel while walking.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the shoe according to this embodiment, the inner side boundary of the midsole 230 is formed longer in order to form a longer linear guide 232, and only the linear guide 232 can be formed into a straight line. In addition, the description of the upper 210, the midsole 220 and the outsole 230 can be described with reference to the previous embodiment.

[0038] In this embodiment, only the inner side boundary of the midsole 230 is formed as a straight line, and the outer side boundary can be formed along the upper boundary like a normal shoe. Figure 3 As shown in (b), the outer bottom 230 is formed into a curved shape on the side, but as shown in Figure 3 As shown in (a), when viewed from the top, it can be seen that the linear guide 232 on the inner side of the outer bottom 230 is in a straight line shape.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the shoes can be provided as a pair of left and right shoes, and the linear guides 232 can be opposite to each other. The wearer can consciously make the linear guides 232 parallel to each other while walking, so as to develop a habit of walking straight. The straight line I consistent with the linear guides 232 can also be observed from the top, so that the wearer can confirm whether the linear guides 232 are parallel every time while walking.

[0040] According to this, if Figure 5 As shown, toddlers or children who need correction can master the process of keeping the linear guides parallel as familiarly as playing a game, thereby naturally developing the habit of walking straight.

[0041] Figure 6 Shown is a diagram of a shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is used to describe a situation in which a linear guide is formed on a shoe bottom and a situation in which a linear guide is formed on a shoe bottom.

[0042] Figure 6 (a) is a right shoe among shoes, and a linear guide 132 may be formed on the inner side of the right shoe. The linear guide 132 may be formed on the outer sole 130.

[0043] The linear guide is not only formed on the outer bottom, but also can be formed on the midsole. For this reason, the linear guide can be formed by extending a part of the midsole to the inner side of the shoe.

[0044] Reference Figure 6 (b), the shoe may include an upper 310, a midsole 320 and an outer sole 330, and the linear guide 322 may be formed integrally with the midsole 320 and protrude from the inner side of the upper to form the linear guide 322.

[0045] Figure 7 2 is a diagram for describing a detachable guide portion of a shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0046] Reference Figure 7 , the linear guide 442 can be provided in a structure that can be detachably mounted on the shoe. To this end, the shoe can also include a guide portion 440 that can be detachably mounted on the midsole in addition to the upper 410, the midsole 420 and the outer sole 340.

[0047] Accordingly, the wearer can switch the use between general eyewear and orthotic eyewear by selectively attaching or detaching the guide portion 440 .

[0048] In the guide portion 440, the portion connected to the midsole line 420 can be set to a curved shape corresponding to the shape of the midsole 420, and the inner boundary not connected to the midsole 420 is formed as a straight line, and a straight line guide portion 442 parallel to the straight line I can be provided.

[0049] A protrusion 446 may be formed at a boundary 444 of the guide portion 440 connected to the midsole 420, and a groove 426 or a hole corresponding to the protrusion 446 may be formed in the midsole 442. The shape of the protrusion or the groove may be variously changed according to the insertion direction of the protrusion.
