Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of footwear technology, specifically to a shoe with easily replaceable modules. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional footwear often employs a unibody construction, permanently fixing components like the sole and upper together through gluing and stitching. This structure leads to significant drawbacks: First, in terms of sustainability, wear and tear on any part of the shoe often results in the entire shoe being discarded, causing resource waste and environmental pollution, contradicting green manufacturing principles. Second, in terms of economy, users cannot replace damaged parts individually and must purchase new shoes, increasing long-term costs; furthermore, the need to buy multiple pairs to adapt to different occasions further burdens the system. Third, in terms of functionality, once traditional footwear is manufactured, its appearance and performance are fixed, failing to meet users' diverse needs for personalized color schemes, fashionable combinations, and functional adjustments for different uses.

[0003] While some designs currently allow for the replacement of shoelaces or outsoles, these are all partial improvements and do not fundamentally achieve full replaceability of the core modules, lacking a systematic solution.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, we have made improvements by proposing a shoe that facilitates module replacement. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] The present invention provides a shoe with easy-to-replace modules, including a connecting body and a fixing module. The front and rear sides of the connecting body are respectively detachably mounted with a forefoot module and a rearfoot module through the fixing module. The top surface of the connecting body is mounted with an upper module.

[0007] The connecting body includes an insole module and a docking insert. Two connecting blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom surface of the insole module. A fixing cylinder that docks with the fixing module is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom surface of the insole module. The docking insert is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two connecting blocks and the fixing cylinder.

[0008] The forefoot module has a front insert slot in the middle of its side surface that is inserted into the front half of the docking insert. A trapezoidal insert is fixedly connected to the lower side surface of the forefoot module. A fixed module hole is provided on the upper part of the trapezoidal insert.

[0009] The rear palm module has a rear insert slot in the middle of its side surface for insertion into the rear half of the docking insert, a trapezoidal insert slot in the lower side surface for insertion into the trapezoidal insert, and a fixing module hole in the bottom surface of the rear palm module.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top surfaces of both the forefoot module and the rearfoot module are provided with grooves for placing the insole module, and the sides of both the forefoot module and the rearfoot module are provided with U-shaped grooves for the connecting block and the fixing cylinder to pass through.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fixing module is a magnetic fixing screw made of TPU thermoplastic polyurethane. The fixing module passes through the fixing module hole on the rear palm module and the fixing module hole on the trapezoidal insert in sequence to enter the interior of the fixing cylinder. An iron block is installed on the inner top surface of the fixing cylinder.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top surface of the insole module is symmetrically provided with two L-shaped snap-fit ​​grooves, and the two ends of the upper module are integrally connected with L-shaped snap-fit ​​blocks. The insole module and the upper module are snapped together by the L-shaped snap-fit ​​grooves and the L-shaped snap-fit ​​blocks.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the two sides of the upper module are rotatably connected to the same adjustable shoelace.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bottom surfaces of the forefoot module and the rearfoot module are fixedly connected with a plurality of rubber anti-slip blocks.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the forefoot module, the heel module, and the insole module are made of EVA material.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This type of shoe, which facilitates module replacement, allows users to easily separate the connecting body from the forefoot and heel modules by simply pulling out the fixing module and applying slight force when any component needs to be replaced. The upper module is connected to the insole module via L-shaped locking slots and blocks. After the user completes the assembly, they simply insert the mating tabs on the connecting body into the front insert slots of the replacement forefoot module and the rear insert slots of the replacement heel module, lock them using the fixing module, and finally reconnect the upper module to the insole module. This completes the assembly and puts the shoe into use, not only helping to reduce resource waste in the footwear industry but also significantly reducing the cost of shoes for users. Because each module is highly replaceable, users only need to replace worn or desired modules to solve problems related to material module wear, changing preferences, matching needs, different usage environments, and diverse usage methods. This overcomes a series of maintenance and replacement problems faced by products manufactured using traditional seamless structures. Attached Figure Description

The top surface of the connecting body 1 is installed with an upper module 4.

[0030] The connecting body 1 includes an insole module 101 and a docking insert 102. Two connecting blocks 103 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom surface of the insole module 101. A fixing cylinder 104 that docks with the fixing module 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom surface of the insole module 101. The docking insert 102 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two connecting blocks 103 and the fixing cylinder 104.

[0031] The front foot module 2 has a front insert slot 201 in the middle of its side surface that is inserted into the front half of the docking insert 102. A trapezoidal insert 202 is fixedly connected to the lower side surface of the front foot module 2. A fixed module hole is provided on the upper part of the trapezoidal insert 202.

[0032] The rear palm module 3 has a rear insert slot 301 in the middle of its side surface for inserting into the rear half of the docking insert 102, a trapezoidal insert slot 302 in the lower side surface for inserting into the trapezoidal insert 202, and a fixing module hole in the bottom surface of the rear palm module 3.

[0033] The top surfaces of both the forefoot module 2 and the heel module 3 are provided with grooves for placing the insole module 101, and the sides of both the forefoot module 2 and the heel module 3 are provided with U-shaped grooves for the connecting block 103 and the fixing cylinder 104 to pass through.

[0034] The fixing module 5 is a magnetic fixing screw made of TPU thermoplastic polyurethane. The fixing module 5 passes through the fixing module hole on the rear palm module 3 and the fixing module hole on the trapezoidal insert 202 in sequence and enters the interior of the fixing cylinder 104. An iron block is installed on the inner top surface of the fixing cylinder 104.

[0035] The top surface of the insole module 101 has two L-shaped snap-fit ​​slots symmetrically provided. Both ends of the upper module 4 are integrally connected with L-shaped snap-fit ​​blocks. The insole module 101 and the upper module 4 are snapped together by the L-shaped snap-fit ​​slots and L-shaped snap-fit ​​blocks.

[0036] The upper module 4 has the same adjustable shoelace 6 rotatably connected to both sides.
