Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of garden shoe technology, specifically to a breathable and safe garden shoe. Background Technology
[0002] In gardening and outdoor cleaning, garden shoes, as footwear that directly contactes complex environments, require a reasonable safety design. Current garden shoes generally use flexible materials for toe protection, such as EVA or mesh structures. When encountering accidental impacts like stones or overturned tools, they cannot form an effective rigid barrier, easily leading to toe injuries. For example, when a user is moving flowerpots or trimming shrubs and accidentally kicks a stone step or metal support, the flexible toe box, lacking support, can directly compress the toes, even causing nail bed damage or toe bone contusions. This design flaw is particularly prominent in children and the elderly, who have slower reaction times and are at higher risk of foot injuries.
[0003] While some existing products attempt to improve safety by thickening the sole or adding a simple toe cap, these improvements are mostly localized optimizations and lack a systematic protective structural design. For example, some garden shoes use plastic toe caps, but the connection between the toe cap and the upper is fragile and prone to falling off after prolonged use. Therefore, developing a new type of garden shoe with environmental protection capabilities has become a pressing technical challenge in this field.
[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222031608U discloses a type of garden shoe with an anti-impact toe cap. By setting a rigid plastic steel toe cap inside the toe and directly covering it with the upper, it directly resists impact. However, the plastic steel toe cap is a fixed structure and cannot be replaced according to the usage scenario. Therefore, this invention provides a breathable and safe garden shoe. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, a breathable and safe garden shoe is provided. By designing the upper as a rubber layer with an impact-resistant structure, and connecting the upper and heel strap together to the sole, the problem of low protection in traditional garden shoes is solved, as well as the issue of the upper being replaceable according to specific usage scenarios.
[0006] To address the problems of existing technologies, the present invention provides a breathable and safe garden shoe, comprising a sole, an upper attached to the upper surface of the sole, and a heel strap attached to the sole. The upper includes a rubber layer and an anti-impact structure. The rubber layer wraps around the anti-impact structure. The lower end of the anti-impact structure extends beyond the rubber layer and is detachably connected to one edge of the upper surface of the sole. The heel strap is connected to the upper and can restrain the upper to the sole. The side of the upper that contacts the user is the rubber layer.
[0007] Preferably, the anti-smashing structure includes a connecting frame and a toe cap structure. A groove is provided at the edge of the sole. The lower end of the connecting frame can be interference-fitted into the groove. A connecting groove is provided on the upper edge of the connecting frame. The lower end of the toe cap can be detachably connected to the connecting groove.
[0008] Preferably, the shoe sole edge is provided with a plurality of grooves at intervals, the lower edge of the connecting frame is provided with a plurality of protrusions at intervals, the lower end of the protrusion is provided with an enlarged end, and the enlarged end can be interference fit in the groove.
[0009] Preferably, the anti-smashing structure further includes several sets of annular gaskets, each annular gasket being spaced apart within the rubber layer, and several first ventilation holes being provided on the rubber layer, the first ventilation holes corresponding to the inner rings of the annular gaskets.
[0010] Preferably, a plurality of ventilation holes are evenly provided on the head covering structure, and a second ventilation hole is provided in the rubber layer covering the head covering structure corresponding to the ventilation holes.
[0011] Preferably, the rubber layer has several notches, which are located between the intervals of the two protrusions, and the rubber layer wraps around the connecting frame and exposes the bulging end.
[0012] Preferably, the rubber layer extends from both ends of the connecting frame, and circular grooves are provided at both ends of the connecting frame. Two sets of connecting seats are provided on the sole, and both ends of the connecting frame are connected to the connecting seats.
[0013] Preferably, the heel strap includes a strip structure, two sets of limiting rings and two sets of connecting buttons. The strip structure has first circular holes at both ends. The limiting rings are rotatably limited in the first circular holes. The connecting buttons are limited in the limiting rings. The connecting seat has a second circular hole. The connecting frame has circular grooves at both ends. The circular grooves have internal threads. The connecting buttons can pass through the second circular hole and be screwed into the circular grooves.
[0014] Preferably, the strip structure is configured as a stretchable structure.
[0015] Preferably, the bottom surface of the shoe sole is provided with an anti-slip structure.
[0016] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are: 1. The present invention provides a breathable and safe garden shoe in which the front of the user's foot contacts a rubber layer and the heel strap contacts the back of the user's foot. When it is necessary to adjust the breathable and safe garden shoe according to the usage scenario, the connection between the heel strap and the sole can be removed to detach the upper from the sole, thereby achieving the function of replacing the upper and increasing the practicality of the breathable and safe garden shoe.
[0017] 2. In the breathable and safe garden shoe provided by the present invention, the strength of the structure is further increased by setting annular pads in the anti-impact structure. The annular pads are independent of each other and can have a small impact on the overall deformation ability of the shoe upper. The shoe upper is provided with a first ventilation hole according to the size of the inner ring of the annular pad, which increases the breathability of the shoe upper and reduces the weight of the shoe upper.

[0029] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] like Figure 1-10 As shown, this invention provides a breathable and safe garden shoe, including a sole 1, an upper 2 connected to the upper surface of the sole 1, and a heel strap 3 connected to the sole 1. The upper 2 includes a rubber layer 20 and an anti-impact structure 21. The rubber layer 20 covers the anti-impact structure 21. The lower end of the anti-impact structure 21 extends beyond the rubber layer 20 and is detachably connected to one edge of the upper surface of the sole 1. The heel strap 3 is connected to the upper 2 and can restrain the upper 2 to the sole 1. The side of the upper 2 that contacts the user is the rubber layer 20. Figure 1 As shown, the user's forefoot contacts the rubber layer 20, and the heel strap 3 contacts the user's heel. When adjustments to this breathable and safe garden shoe are needed based on the usage scenario, the connection between the heel strap 3 and the sole 1 can be removed, allowing the upper 2 to be detached from the sole 1, thus enabling the replacement of the upper 2 and increasing the practicality of the breathable and safe garden shoe. Preferably, the sole 1 is made of a soft material to enhance user comfort.
[0031] The anti-smashing structure 21 includes a connecting frame 210 and a toe cap structure 211. A groove 10 is provided at the edge of the sole 1. The lower end of the connecting frame 210 can be interference-fitted into the groove 10. A connecting groove 2102 is provided on the upper edge of the connecting frame 210. The lower end of the toe cap is detachably connected to the connecting groove 2102. Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the anti-smashing structure 21 is set as a split structure, which can further reduce the complexity of the processing of the anti-smashing structure 21. By pressing, the lower end of the connecting frame 210 can be pressed into the groove 10 of the sole 1, and the lower end of the toe cap can be interference-fitted into the connecting groove 2102.
[0032] The sole 1 has several grooves 10 spaced apart along its edge, and the connecting frame 210 has several protrusions 2100 spaced apart along its lower edge. Each protrusion 2100 has an enlarged end 2101 at its lower end, which can be interference-fitted into the groove 10. Figure 6As shown, the groove 10 and the protrusion 2100 are set in a spaced manner to enhance the connection between the connecting frame 210 and the sole 1, and increase the contact surface between the connecting frame 210 and the sole 1. At the same time, the space between the two protrusions 2100 of the connecting frame 210 can reduce the amount of material used and further reduce the weight of the connecting frame 210, thereby increasing the user's comfort. Preferably, the space between two adjacent protrusions 2100 is set as an arched structure. The arched structure can better transfer the force from the top of the overall anti-impact structure 21 downward to the sole 1. When the anti-impact structure 21 is subjected to an impact load, the anti-impact structure 21 is mainly subjected to overall compression deformation. The deformation around the space between the two adjacent protrusions 2100 is smaller, and the space is less likely to form stress concentration at the corners.
[0033] The anti-smashing structure 21 also includes several sets of annular gaskets 212, each annular gasket 212 being spaced apart within the rubber layer 20. The rubber layer 20 has several first ventilation holes 200, each corresponding to a hole penetrating the inner ring of an annular gasket 212. Figure 4-6 As shown, the annular pads 212 can increase the overall strength of the upper 2 while adding a small amount of weight. The annular pads 212 are independent of each other and can better cope with the deformation of the rubber layer 20. When the user wears this breathable and safe garden shoe, the rubber layer 20 can deform to a certain extent according to the user's usage. The first ventilation hole 200 can increase the breathability of the upper 2. It should be noted that the rubber layer 20 should wrap around the annular pads 212, and the shape and size of the first ventilation hole 200 should be defined by the inner ring of the annular pads 212.
[0034] A plurality of ventilation holes 2110 are evenly arranged on the toe cap structure 211. The rubber layer 20 covering the toe cap structure 211 is provided with a second ventilation hole 201 corresponding to the ventilation holes 2110 to further increase the breathability of the shoe upper 2. The pore size of the ventilation holes 2110 is small, in the range of 2-3mm. The density of the ventilation holes 2110 will affect the strength of the toe cap structure 211. Preferably, the toe cap structure 211 is a metal mesh structure.
[0035] Several notches (not shown in the figure) are provided on the rubber layer 20. The notches are located between the intervals of the two protrusions 2100. The rubber layer 20 wraps the connecting frame 210 and exposes the bulging end 2101. The notches increase breathability and allow water to drain from the notches when it accumulates on the upper surface of the sole 1. The shape of the notches is defined by the shape of the interval between the two protrusions 2100.
[0036] Rubber layers 20 extend from both ends of the connecting frame 210. Circular grooves 2103 are provided at both ends of the connecting frame 210. Two sets of connecting seats 11 are provided on the sole 1, and both ends of the connecting frame 210 are connected to the connecting seats 11. Figure 2-4As shown, the lower end of the connecting frame 210 is connected to the sole 1, and the two ends of the connecting frame 210 are connected to the connecting seat 11, which can increase the stability of the connection between the upper 2 and the sole 1.
[0037] The heel strap 3 includes a strip structure 30, two sets of limiting rings 31, and two sets of connecting buttons 32. The strip structure 30 has first circular holes at both ends. The limiting rings 31 are rotatably confined within the first circular holes. The connecting buttons 32 are confined within the limiting rings 31. The connecting seat 11 has a second circular hole 110. The connecting frame 210 has circular grooves 2103 at both ends. Internal threads are provided within the circular grooves 2103, allowing the connecting buttons 32 to pass through the second circular hole 110 and be screwed into the circular grooves 2103. Figure 7-8 As shown, the strip structure 30 is rotatably connected to the limiting ring 31. The rotatable strip structure 30 increases the adaptability of the garden shoe. By rotating the connecting button 32, the connection between the connecting frame 210 and the limiting button can be released. That is, when disassembling the shoe upper 2, the heel strap 3 must be removed beforehand. To further increase the adaptability of the device, the strip structure 30 is preferably designed as a telescopic structure, so that the strip structure 30 can fit the heel of different users' feet.
[0038] The sole 1 has an anti-slip structure on the bottom surface, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the anti-slip structure is formed by slotting the bottom surface of the sole 1 to increase the contact surface between the bottom surfaces of the sole 1. Preferably, the slotting on the bottom surface of the sole 1 can communicate with several grooves 10 provided on the top surface of the sole 1, so that water is not easily accumulated on the top surface of the sole 1.
[0039] It should be noted that during the processing of the shoe upper 2, a conical columnar protrusion 2100 structure is set on the fixed mold. The annular gasket 212 can be fitted onto the columnar protrusion 2100 structure, and there is a gap between the annular gasket 212 and the bottom surface of the fixed mold. An injection port is set on the fixed mold, and the cap structure 211 is connected to the connecting frame 210. The connecting frame 210 is set on the moving mold. When the moving mold moves to contact the fixed mold, there is an operating gap between the anti-smashing structure 21 and the fixed mold. The rubber layer 20 liquid, heated to a molten state, is injected into the cavity formed by the fixed mold and the moving mold through the injection port. The rubber layer 20 liquid can wrap the anti-smashing structure 21. At the same time, due to the setting of the columnar protrusion 2100 structure, a first ventilation hole 200 is formed on the rubber layer 20. After the rubber layer 20 liquid expands and cools, a second ventilation hole 201 can be set on the rubber layer 20.
[0040] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
