[0002] In recent years, initiatives to reduce global carbon dioxide emissions have received much attention. However, as a traditional carbon dioxide reduction method, there are examples of using large-scale devices to absorb carbon dioxide, but this requires a large amount of investment and is difficult for individuals to implement. In addition, when using such a device, since the device itself also emits carbon dioxide, the efficiency of carbon dioxide reduction is not sufficient. Therefore, there is a need for a device that can assist in reducing carbon dioxide even for individuals with a simple structure. Prior Art Documents Patent Documents

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] ● Shoes Hereinafter, a shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The shoe according to the present invention is a shoe that absorbs carbon dioxide by using the force generated when the wearer walks or the like. A shoe is mainly an object worn on the feet, that is, a so-called shoe, and can be any type of shoe, such as leather shoes, sports shoes, sandals, boots, thigh boots, etc.

[0013] As Figure 1 shown, the shoe 1 mainly includes a shoe upper part 2 and a shoe sole part 3. The shoe upper part 2 is the part that constitutes the upper part of the shoe 1 and has an opening for the wearer's foot to insert into it. In the present invention, the structure of the shoe upper part 2 is arbitrary and appropriate known techniques can be adopted.

[0014] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the shoe sole part 3 is the part connected to the lower side of the shoe upper part 2 and constitutes the bottom surface of the shoe 1. The shoe sole part 3 has elasticity, and when the shoe 1 is in use, that is, for example, when walking or running, the shoe sole part 3 is sandwiched between the shoe upper part 2 and the ground and is compressed.

[0015] The shoe sole part 3 mainly includes an air intake port 31, an air chamber 32, a carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and an exhaust port 34. The air intake port 31, the air chamber 32, the carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and the exhaust port 34 are connected in this order directly or through appropriate connection paths.

[0016] The air intake port 31 is a hole that communicates the air chamber 32 with the outside. Although there are two air intake ports 31 in the present embodiment, the number thereof is arbitrary. The air intake port 31 is provided on the back side of the shoe sole part 3, that is, the heel side. According to this structure, compared with the structure provided on the toe side, dirt such as mud is less likely to enter during walking, and the air intake function can be maintained. In addition, in sports shoes, in order to exert this function, the shoe sole part 3 on the toe side is usually configured to be thin. Regarding this point, according to the structure of the present application, since the air intake port 31 is provided on the heel side, even when the shoe 1 is formed in the shape of a sports shoe, the functionality of the sports shoe can be maintained. It should be noted that in the case of a type of shoe in which the shoe sole part 3 on the toe side of the shoe 1 is formed into a leather shoe or the like and has a certain thickness, the air intake port 31 can also be provided at the toe.

[0017] The air chamber 32 is a space having a predetermined volume and communicates with the outside through the air intake port 31. A check valve 40 can be arranged between the air intake port 31 and the air chamber 32. When the shoe sole part 3 touches the ground due to walking, the air chamber 32 is compressed by the pressure generated in the shoe sole part 3. Corresponding to the compression, the air in the air chamber 32 flows into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33. In addition, when the shoe 1 leaves the ground due to walking, the air chamber 32 substantially returns to its original volume due to the restoration of the shoe sole part 3. That is, the air chamber 32 repeats compression and restoration according to walking, thereby realizing the function of a pump for delivering air to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33.

[0018] The carbon dioxide absorption part 33 is a space communicating with the air chamber 32. The rear end (heel side) of the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 communicates with the air chamber 32. Additionally, the front end (toe side) of the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 communicates with the exhaust port 34. That is, the air introduced from the air intake port 31 sequentially passes through the air chamber 32 and the carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and is discharged from the exhaust port 34.

[0019] As Figure 4 shown, the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 includes a carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 and a carbon dioxide absorption material 332. The carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 and the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 are respectively formed in the left - right direction of the carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and both ends thereof are respectively connected to the left - right inner walls. That is, the air flowing into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 from the air chamber 32 will surely pass through the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 and the carbon dioxide absorption material 332.

[0020] The carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 is a membrane that selectively permeates carbon dioxide. The air flowing into the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 from the right side in the figure is pressed against the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 by the pressure generated in the shoe sole 3 due to walking, so that carbon dioxide is separated and passes to the left side of the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331.

[0021] The carbon dioxide absorption material 332 is composed of a suitable material for absorbing carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide absorption material 332 absorbs the carbon dioxide that has permeated through the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331. The color of the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 can change according to the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed. In this case, the color of the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 can be visually confirmed through a suitable window arranged in the shoe sole 3. According to this structure, the carbon dioxide absorption function of the shoe 1 can be confirmed at any time. Additionally, the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 can be taken out from this window or other suitable windows for replacement.

[0022] The unabsorbed gas is discharged from the exhaust port 34 communicating with the carbon dioxide absorption part 33. The exhaust port 34 is arranged at a position closer to the front of the shoe, that is, the toe side, than the air intake port 31. When walking, usually the heel touches the ground first, and the center of gravity of the body weight moves forward sequentially. Therefore, due to the body weight movement during walking, pressure is sequentially applied to the air and carbon dioxide from the air intake port 31 to the exhaust port 34. That is, according to this structure, the body weight movement during walking can be used to guide the gas from the air intake port 31 to the exhaust port 34.

[0023] Additionally, the exhaust port 34 penetrates through the inner side (arch side) of the foot in the wearing state of the external structure of the shoe. That is, the exhaust ports 34 of the paired left and right shoes face each other. According to this structure, the exhaust port 34 is hardly affected by dirt and mud splashing during walking, and the exhaust port 34 can be kept in an open state. Additionally, as Figure 2As shown, a plurality of exhaust ports 34 can be provided. It should be noted that the valve 41 can be provided at the boundary between the exhaust port 34 and the carbon dioxide absorption unit 33. With this structure, dirt entering from the exhaust port 34 can be prevented from reaching the carbon dioxide absorption unit 33. The valve 41 can be a check valve that only allows gas to flow out in the direction from the carbon dioxide absorption unit 33 to the exhaust port 34.

[0024] According to the shoe of the above-described embodiment of the present invention, the force generated by the wearer during walking or the like can be utilized to contribute to the reduction of carbon dioxide with a simple structure.

[0025] ● Exercise device (1) Hereinafter, an exercise device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The exercise device according to the present invention is a device that absorbs carbon dioxide by utilizing the force generated by the user's actions when the user uses the exercise device.

[0026] For example, as Figure 5 shown, the exercise device 1001 mainly includes a changing unit 1002, an acting unit 1003, an intake port 4, an air chamber 5, a communication passage 6, a carbon dioxide absorption unit 33, and an exhaust port 8, etc.

[0027] The changing unit 1002 is a component that changes with the user's actions. In the present embodiment, the changing unit 1002 at least includes a heavy object 20 lifted by the user P. The upper end of the heavy object 20 is connected to one end of a cable 21. In addition, the cable 21 bends downward from above through a plurality of pulleys 23 held by a support column 22, and the other end of the cable 21 is connected to a gripping portion 24 that the user P can hold. As a result, when the user P pulls the gripping portion 24 obliquely downward, the force is transmitted to the heavy object 20 via the cable 21, and then the heavy object 20 is lifted. The heavy object 20 is inserted into a plurality of appropriate rods 25 extending in the vertical direction and moves up and down along the rods 25. In addition, since the heavy object 20 applies a downward force due to gravity, when the user P gently releases the force, the heavy object 20 moves downward accordingly. That is, in the present embodiment, the change of the changing unit 1002 at least refers to the up and down movement of the position of the heavy object 20. With such an exercise device 1001, the user P can apply a load of the weight 20 to muscles such as back muscles by actions such as pulling down or releasing the force on the gripping portion 24, thereby performing muscle strength training.

[0028] The exercise device 1001 in this embodiment is a so-called rowing machine. The gripping portion 24 is suspended obliquely in front of and above the head of the user P, and the user P exercises the muscles by pulling down the gripping portion 24. However, the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to this, and it can be an exercise device that pulls the gripping portion 24 in an appropriate posture to exercise the muscles of any part. In addition, although in this embodiment, the heavy object 20 applies a downward force due to gravity, and the user exercises muscle strength by moving the heavy object 20 against gravity, the force applied to the heavy object 20 is not limited to gravity, and can also be an appropriate force such as the elastic force of a spring. In addition, the exercise device included in the technical scope of the present invention, in addition to the separately shown examples, can also be an exercise device having appropriate components that change with the movement of the user. For example, it can be a so-called leg press machine, and the user steps on an appropriate changing portion and moves it. In addition, it can also be a device in which the heavy object rotates in the rolling direction, pitching direction, yaw direction, etc. with the movement of the user P.

[0029] In addition, the changing portion 1002 includes an abutting portion 26 that extends downward from the heavy object 20. The abutting portion 26 is, for example, a rod-shaped member, and its lower end abuts against the acting portion 1003. At least when the heavy object 20 is within a specified range below, the abutting portion 26 abuts against the acting portion 1003, and when the heavy object 20 moves downward, the abutting portion 26 also pushes the acting portion 1003 downward. When the heavy object 20 is located relatively above, the abutting portion 26 can be separated from the acting portion 1003. In the case of the above state, an appropriate biasing member can be provided, and the biasing member restores the acting portion 1003 to its original posture at least when the heavy object 20 is in a separated state. It should be noted that in each of the following embodiments of the exercise device, an appropriate biasing member can also be provided. In addition, the abutting portion 26 can be connected to the acting portion 1003.

[0030] In addition, although in this embodiment, the abutting portion 26 is a straight rod and the acting portion 1003 is disposed below the heavy object 20, the abutting portion 26 can also have a curved structure. In this case, depending on the shape of the abutting portion 26, the acting portion 1003 can be disposed at any position separated from directly below the heavy object 20.

[0031] The acting part 1003 is a component that moves forward and backward according to the change of the changing part 1002. The acting part 1003 is, for example, a plate-shaped component and is accommodated in the air chamber 5. For example, the acting part 1003 has a shape corresponding to the surface in the air chamber 5 that is orthogonal to the moving direction of the acting part 1003, and the end side of the acting part 1003 slides along the side surface of the air chamber 5. In addition, the acting part 1003 compresses the air in the air chamber 5 by moving forward and backward vertically. In the present embodiment, the acting part 1003 has a shape corresponding to the lower surface of the air chamber 5. It should be noted that although the acting part 1003 is flat in this figure, its end can also be bent downward.

[0032] The air inlet 4 is arranged in the air chamber 5 and is a hole that connects the inside and outside of the air chamber 5. As the acting part 1003 rises, the air inlet 4 allows air to flow into the inside of the air chamber 5. A check valve can be provided on the air inlet 4.

[0033] The communication channel 6 is a pipe that connects the air chamber 5 and the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 to each other. The air compressed by the acting part 1003 in the air chamber 5 flows into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 through the communication channel 6.

[0034] The carbon dioxide absorption part 33 has a space with a specified volume and is connected to the air chamber 5 through the communication channel 6. A check valve can be arranged between the communication channel 6 and the carbon dioxide absorption part 33. The structure of the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 is the same as the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 described above.

[0035] That is, by the user P pulling the gripping part 24, air flows into the air chamber 5 through the air inlet 4. When the user P stops actively pulling the gripping part 24, the heavy object 20 drops due to gravity, and the acting part 1003 also drops accordingly, so that the air inside the air chamber 5 is compressed. Correspondingly, the air in the air chamber 5 flows into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33. That is, the air chamber 5 continuously repeats compression and restoration according to the muscle strength exercise of the user P, so as to realize the function of a pump that transports air to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33.

[0036] According to the above-mentioned exercise device of the present invention, the force generated by the user's actions can be utilized to contribute to reducing carbon dioxide through a simple structure. In particular, the actions generated during muscle strength exercise can be utilized to reduce carbon dioxide. According to such an exercise device, since the user's own exercise is directly related to the reduction of carbon dioxide, the user can actually feel his own contribution.

[0037] ● Exercise device (2) Figure 6The shown exercise device 101 is the second embodiment of the exercise device according to the present invention. The exercise device 101 is a device that slides the seat on which the user sits forward and backward together with the user's body as the user flexes and extends, that is, a so-called rowing machine. It should be noted that in the following description, for the same structures as those of the previously described exercise device 1001, the same reference numerals are assigned and their descriptions are omitted. As Figure 6 shown, the exercise device 101 mainly includes a changing part 120, an acting part 130, an air inlet 4, an air chamber 150, a communication channel 6, a carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and an exhaust port 8, etc.

[0038] The changing part 120 includes a seat 121 for the user P to sit on. In addition, when the user P is in a state of sitting on the seat 121, the seat 121 is held by a guide rail 122 extending along the lower limb direction of the user P. The seat 121 is connected to the guide rail 122 and can slide back and forth along the guide rail 122.

[0039] In addition, the exercise device 101 includes: a fixed table 123 placed on the floor surface; a gripping part 124 connected to the fixed table 123 through an appropriate cable or the like. An appropriate foot receiving part that abuts against the soles of the feet of the user P is arranged on the fixed table 123. The user P receives a reaction force from the leg receiving part by bending and stretching the legs, and moves back and forth together with the guide rail 122 and the seat 121.

[0040] The first end of an abutting part 126 is connected to the seat 121. The abutting part 126 is a rod-shaped member extending rearward of the seat 121. The second end of the abutting part 126 is connected to the acting part 130 housed in the air chamber 150. As a result, when the seat 121 moves back and forth with the operation of the user P, the acting part 130 also moves back and forth inside the air chamber 150. Thereby, the acting part 130 compresses the air inside the air chamber 150, and makes the air flow into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 through the communication channel 6. It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the acting part 130 is a thin plate having a shape corresponding to the side surface of the air chamber 150, and can move back and forth according to the forward and backward movement of the seat 121. It should be noted that, like the abutting part 26 described above, the abutting part 126 can also be bent. In addition, the movement direction of the abutting part 126 can be converted into the up and down direction through an appropriate gear structure, and the acting part 130 is a structure that moves up and down inside the air chamber 150. According to such an exercise device 101, it is also possible to reduce carbon dioxide in the air by using the force generated in the user's exercise action.

[0041] ● Exercise device (3) Figure 7This is a bicycle dynamometer, which is an example of the exercise device 201 that absorbs carbon dioxide by means of pedaling motion. The exercise device 201 includes a pedal 220 that rotates by the user's action, and according to the rotation of the pedal 220, air is blown into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33. The pedal 220 is another example of the "changing part".

[0042] The exercise device 201 mainly consists of an acting part 230, a blower 240, and a carbon dioxide absorption part 33. The acting part 230 is a component that transmits the rotation of the shaft of the pedal 220 to the blower 240. The blower 240 is a device that rotates the fan blades by the force transmitted from the acting part 230 and blows air to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33, and is another example of the "acting part" in the technical solution. The carbon dioxide absorption part 33 has the same structure as the above-mentioned carbon dioxide absorption part 33 (reference Figure 4 ), the air blown out from the blower 240 flows into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 through the communication channel 6 and is absorbed by the internal carbon dioxide absorption material 332 (reference Figure 4 ). According to such a structure, it is also possible to reduce carbon dioxide using human power without further emitting carbon dioxide due to power consumption or the like.

[0043] ● Exercise device (4) Figure 8 This is a treadmill, which is an example of the exercise device 301 that absorbs carbon dioxide by using the force of the user walking or running on the endless belt 310. The exercise device 301 includes an endless belt 310, rollers 330, a blower 240, a communication channel 6, and a carbon dioxide absorption part 33, etc. The endless belt 310 is held by the rollers 330, and the rollers 330 rotate as the endless belt 310 rotates. The endless belt 310 and the rollers 330 rotate according to the user's actions on the endless belt 310, especially walking or running. Any type of action can be used as long as it can cause the endless belt 310 to rotate. The endless belt 310 and the rollers 330 are another example of the "changing part".

[0044] According to the above structure, when the user exercises on the endless belt 310, the rollers 330 rotate, and correspondingly, the wind generated from the blower 240 is blown to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 through the communication channel 6. That is, it is possible to reduce carbon dioxide using the user's human power.

[0045] ● Exercise device (5) Figure 9 The shown exercise device 401 is the fourth embodiment of the exercise device according to the present invention and is also another structural example of a treadmill. The exercise device 401 mainly includes an endless belt 310, an air chamber 350, a communication channel 6, and a carbon dioxide absorption part 33. The carbon dioxide absorption part 33 has the same structure as the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 described above (reference Figure 2)The same structure. An air chamber 350 is provided directly below the annular belt 310, and when the user steps on the annular belt 310, the air chamber 350 is compressed accordingly. In addition, at least a part of the air chamber 350 is composed of an elastic member such as an elastomer, and when the load applied by the user disappears, the air chamber 350 substantially returns to its original shape. Although in this figure, the air chamber 350 is formed to have a thickness from the floor surface to directly below the annular belt 310, it can also be configured as a thin plate shape along the annular belt 310. The air chamber 350 is connected to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 via a communication passage 6. According to such a structure, when the user performs actions such as walking or running on the annular belt 310, the air chamber 350 is compressed, and the air inside the air chamber 350 is guided to the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 through the communication passage 6. Therefore, it is possible to reduce carbon dioxide by human power according to the user's actions.

[0046] ● Exercise device (6) Figure 10 It is an example of an exercise device 501 that absorbs carbon dioxide by utilizing the foot movement in a foot-operated exercise device called a stepper. The exercise device 501 includes a pedal 520, and according to the up-and-down movement of the pedal 520, the exercise device 501 also operates accordingly. The pedal 520 is another example of a "changing part".

[0047] The exercise device 501 mainly consists of a bellows 522 provided below the pedal 520 of the exercise device 501 and a carbon dioxide absorption part 33. It should be noted that the bellows 522 is a general term for devices that send out air by changing the volume of an airtight space, and as long as it is a structure that compresses air by a squeezing action part 530 and blows out the air, the detailed structure can take various forms. The action part 530 of the bellows 522 has a shape corresponding to the bottom surface of the air chamber 550, and when the action part 530 descends, the air in the air chamber 550 is compressed. In addition, a protrusion extending upward is formed on the upper surface of the action part 530, and this protrusion abuts against the descended pedal 520. That is, when the pedal 520 descends, the action part 530 of the bellows 522 abuts against the back surface of the pedal 520 and is pressed downward. The carbon dioxide absorption part 33 has the same structure as the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 (reference Figure 4 ) The air blown out from the air chamber 550 of the bellows 522 flows into the carbon dioxide absorption part 33 and is absorbed by the internal carbon dioxide absorption material 332 (reference Figure 4 ). According to such a structure, it is also possible to reduce carbon dioxide by human power without further emitting carbon dioxide due to power consumption or the like.

[0048] ● Mobile device (1) Figure 11This is an example of a mobile device according to the present invention. It is an example of a mobile device 601 that absorbs carbon dioxide by allowing air flowing from the front to the rear as it moves to flow into a carbon dioxide absorption unit 607. The mobile device 601 can be a suitable device moved by human power, which is a bicycle in this embodiment. The mobile device 601 has one or more carbon dioxide absorption units 607. In this figure, the carbon dioxide absorption unit 607 is provided on the upper part of the handle of the mobile device 601 and on a cover above the rear wheel, i.e., a so-called fender, but this is just an example.

[0049] As Figure 12 shown, the carbon dioxide absorption unit 607 is, for example, a flat member that is rectangular when viewed from above, and has an air inlet 333 for air to flow in and an air outlet 334 for air that has passed through the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 to flow out. The air flowing in from the air inlet 333 sequentially passes through the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331 and the carbon dioxide absorption material 332, and is discharged from the air outlet 334.

[0050] As Figure 13 shown, the air inlet 333 of the carbon dioxide absorption unit 607 is set to face the traveling direction of the mobile device 601. With such a structure, the air flowing from the front to the rear as the mobile device 601 moves is efficiently guided to the air inlet 333. In addition, the air inlet 333, the carbon dioxide separation membrane 331, the carbon dioxide absorption material 332, and the air outlet 334 are formed in a substantially straight line in this order. That is, the carbon dioxide absorption material 332 is arranged orthogonally to the traveling direction. In addition, the air outlet 334 faces the rear of the traveling direction of the mobile device 601. With such a structure, the wind generated in the mobile device 601 due to movement can be used to press the air onto the carbon dioxide absorption material 332. As a result, carbon dioxide can be absorbed more efficiently.

[0051] ● Clothing (1) Figure 13 This is an example of clothing according to the present invention. It is an example of a hat 701 that absorbs carbon dioxide by allowing air flowing from the front to the rear as it moves to flow into a carbon dioxide absorption unit 607. The carbon dioxide absorption unit 607 provided in the hat 701 can have the same structure as Figure 12 shown. It should be noted that Figure 13The carbon dioxide absorption part 607 in it can be bent along the shape of the hat. The air inlet 333 of the carbon dioxide absorption part 607 is set to face the front of the hat 701. The front of the hat 701 is along the direction of the front of the user wearing the hat 701 and towards the traveling direction. The exhaust port (not shown) is formed on the back side of the hat 701. When the user moves forward, a wind from the front to the back is generated in the hat 701. Therefore, the hat 701 can absorb carbon dioxide as the user moves forward. According to such a structure, the user can absorb carbon dioxide only by wearing the hat 701 and walking or running. That is, it is easy to contribute to reducing carbon dioxide by human power.

[0052] ● Clothing (2) Figure 14 It is another example of the clothing according to the present invention, and is an example of the clothing 801 that absorbs carbon dioxide by allowing the air flowing from the front to the back with movement to flow into the carbon dioxide absorption part 607. The carbon dioxide absorption part 607 is set such that the air inlet 333 faces the front side of the shoulder of the clothing 801. The exhaust port (not shown) is formed on the back side of the clothing 801. According to such a structure, by making the air inlet 333 face the traveling direction, the clothing 801 can also absorb carbon dioxide as the user moves forward. Furthermore, the user can easily contribute to reducing carbon dioxide by human power. When such a hat 701 and clothing 801 are configured as sportswear for intense exercise, their effects will be further enhanced. Although the clothing 801 is worn on the upper body, it can also be worn on the lower body. In addition, although in this description, the example of the carbon dioxide absorption part being arranged on the hat and clothing is used for illustration, the technical idea of the present invention is not limited thereto, and can be applied to any clothing and small items worn by people.
