Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of footwear technology, specifically to a heel support component and a shoe. Background Technology

[0002] Current athletic shoes typically use heel countersole reinforcement or a combination of foam padding and heel countersole reinforcement to improve heel support, thereby enhancing the shoe's restraint on the foot and reducing the risk of excessive foot displacement and sprains during exercise. However, jumping is another important activity during exercise, placing significant impact on the sole. If only heel support is prioritized, resulting in excessive heel stiffness, the shoe will not only fail to effectively cushion the impact through proper deformation but will also directly transmit the impact to the heel and ankle joints, potentially leading to foot fatigue and even joint injuries. Therefore, there is an urgent need to optimize the heel structure to ensure both support and effective cushioning.

[0003] In view of this, the applicant has conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned issues, which led to this case. Summary of the Invention

[0004] One object of the present invention is to provide a heel support component that provides good cushioning while ensuring support performance; another object of the present invention is to provide a shoe with good cushioning while ensuring support performance in the heel.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A shoe heel support, comprising a support body; The rear side of the support body is provided with a reinforcing area and a transition area located below the reinforcing area; At least one reinforcing rib is formed on the reinforced area; The transition area has protrusions, which are polygonal grids, or the transition area has several polygonal grooves.

[0006] Preferably, there are at least two reinforcing ribs, and each reinforcing rib is arranged side by side along the horizontal direction.

In the same horizontal stiffening assembly, the first horizontal rib is located on one side of the first reinforcing rib in the horizontal direction, and the second horizontal rib is located on the other side of the first reinforcing rib in the horizontal direction. The first horizontal rib and the second horizontal rib are arranged symmetrically with the first reinforcing rib as the center, and the first horizontal rib and the second horizontal rib are respectively fixedly connected to the first reinforcing rib.

[0008] Preferably, a strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs, one of which is a first groove. The first groove is located at a position corresponding to the middle of the heel of the shoe along the width direction. A third horizontal rib is provided in the first groove. One end of the third horizontal rib is fixedly connected to one side of the groove wall in the width direction of the first groove, and the other end of the third horizontal rib is fixedly connected to the other side of the groove wall in the width direction of the first groove.

[0009] Preferably, a first convex strip and a second convex strip are formed on the reinforcing area. The reinforcing ribs together form a reinforcing group; the first protrusion is located on one side of the reinforcing group in the horizontal direction, and the second protrusion is located on the other side of the reinforcing group in the horizontal direction.

[0010] Preferably, the first convex strip includes a C-shaped convex strip segment or an S-shaped convex strip segment.

[0011] Preferred, A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs, and a plurality of polyhedral reinforcing blocks are formed at the bottom of each strip groove.

[0012] Preferably, it further includes a shock-absorbing component fixedly connected to the support body, wherein the support body is located on the upper side of the shock-absorbing component; The rear side of the damping component has a plurality of damping protrusions, and the front side of the damping component has grooves at positions corresponding to each damping protrusion.

[0013] A shoe includes a shoe body, wherein the shoe body is provided with the aforementioned heel support at the heel position; The front side of the support body is attached to and fixed to the rear side of the shoe upper of the shoe body, or the support body is embedded in the shoe upper of the shoe body.

[0014] A shoe includes a shoe body, wherein the shoe body is provided with the aforementioned heel support at the heel position, and the shoe body includes a sole and an upper disposed on the sole; The front side of the support body is attached to and fixed on the rear side of the shoe upper, and the front side of the cushioning component is attached to and fixed on the rear side of the shoe sole.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0021] Example 1 like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, including a shoe body, a heel support member at the heel position of the shoe body, and the shoe body including a sole and an upper disposed on the sole.

[0022] For ease of description, in this embodiment, the side of the shoe facing the ground when in normal use is considered the lower side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the upper side of each component. The side of the shoe facing the toe is considered the front side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the rear side of each component. The side of a pair of shoes facing each other is considered the inner side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the outer side of each component.

[0023] The heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, meaning that this embodiment essentially also provides a heel support.

[0024] The heel support includes a support body 10 and a cushioning element 20 fixedly connected to the support body 10. The support body 10 is located on the upper side of the cushioning element 20. In this embodiment, the support body 10 and the cushioning element 20 are integrally connected.

[0025] The heel support is made of PA, TPU, or composite fiber.

[0026] The front side of the support body 10 is fitted and fixed to the rear side of the shoe upper. The rear side of the support body 10 has a reinforcement zone and a transition zone located below the reinforcement zone. The upper side of the transition zone connects with the reinforcement zone, and the lower side of the transition zone connects with the cushioning component 20.

[0027] It should be noted that there is no strict and obvious dividing line between the support body 10 and the damping component 20, and there is no strict and obvious dividing line between the reinforcement zone and the transition zone.

[0028] At least one reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforced area; by setting the reinforcing rib 12, the rigidity of the support body 10 can be effectively improved.

[0029] The transition area has protrusions 11, which are polygonal grids, or several polygonal grooves. In this embodiment, protrusions 11 are formed on the transition area. Since the material of the heel support is PA, TPU, or composite fiber, this type of material has good elasticity. When running, after the heel lands, the compression deformation of the protrusions 11 or polygonal grooves absorbs the impact force, which can improve the cushioning performance of the transition area, thereby improving the cushioning performance of the heel and effectively protecting the foot. By setting protrusions 11 or several polygonal grooves, the stiffness of the support body 10 in the transition area is made less than the stiffness of the support body 10 in the reinforcement area, so that the support body 10 can still have a cushioning function while ensuring support performance.

[0030] The front side of the cushioning element 20 is fixed to the rear side of the sole, or the front side of the cushioning element 20 is simultaneously fixed to both the rear side of the sole and the rear side of the upper. In this embodiment, the front side of the cushioning element 20 is fixed to the rear side of the sole. A plurality of cushioning protrusions 21 are formed on the rear side of the cushioning element 20, and grooves are provided on the front side of the cushioning element 20 at positions corresponding to each cushioning protrusion 21. By providing cushioning protrusions 21 on the rear side of the cushioning element 20 and grooves on the front side of the cushioning element 20 at positions corresponding to each cushioning protrusion 21, when the heel of the shoe lands during running, the compression deformation of the cushioning protrusions 21 absorbs the impact force, thereby improving the cushioning performance of the cushioning element 20, thus improving the cushioning performance of the heel and effectively protecting the human foot.

[0031] Preferably, there are at least two reinforcing ribs 12, each arranged vertically and side by side along the horizontal direction. A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 12.

[0032] Preferably, each groove, together with the sole, forms an airbag to further improve cushioning performance. When a person runs, the heel is the primary point of impact upon landing. The aforementioned airbags are rapidly compressed at the moment of heel strike, effectively absorbing the impact force of the heel hitting the ground, thus effectively protecting the feet.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the stiffness of the support body 10 can be effectively improved by setting the reinforcing rib 12 in the reinforcing area, resulting in relatively good support performance of the shoe heel support. By forming a protrusion 11 or several polygonal grooves in the transition area, the shock absorption performance of the support body 10 can be improved by using the compression deformation of the protrusion 11 or several polygonal grooves. This results in relatively good shock absorption performance of the shoe heel support. By setting a transition area, the upper side of the transition area is connected to the reinforcing area, and the lower side of the transition area is connected to the shock absorber 20, so that the stiffness of the shoe heel support can be smoothly transitioned in the vertical direction. The shoe heel support has good shock absorption function while ensuring support performance.

[0034] Because the shoe has the aforementioned heel support component at the heel position, and because the aforementioned heel support component has good cushioning function while ensuring support performance, the heel of the shoe has good cushioning function while ensuring support performance.

[0035] By attaching and fixing the front side of the support body 10 to the rear side of the shoe upper, and attaching and fixing the front side of the cushioning component 20 to the rear side of the sole, the heel support, sole, and upper form a synergistic structure, allowing the support performance of the heel support to be fully utilized.

[0036] Example 2 like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, the bottom of each groove is further provided with several polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15.

[0037] Each polyhedral reinforcing block 15 has the same structure. Taking one of the polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 as an example, the polyhedral reinforcing block 15 includes at least a first reinforcing surface and a second reinforcing surface. The first reinforcing surface is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding strip groove, and the second reinforcing surface is fixedly connected to the wall of the corresponding strip groove.

[0038] In this embodiment, the polyhedral reinforcing block 15 is a tetrahedral reinforcing block.

[0039] By forming several polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 at the bottom of each strip groove, the rigidity of the position where the polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 are set in the strip groove can be improved, thereby improving the deformation resistance of the bottom of the strip groove.

[0040] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0041] Example 3 likeFigure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0042] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. The reinforcing rib 12 is arranged vertically and is located at a position corresponding to the middle position of the heel of the shoe along the width direction. A first protrusion 141 and a second protrusion 142 are also formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. The first protrusion 141 is located on one side of the reinforcing rib 12 in the horizontal direction, and the second protrusion 142 is located on the other side of the reinforcing rib 12 in the horizontal direction.

[0043] By setting the first protrusion 141 and the second protrusion 142, the reinforcing rib 12, the first protrusion 141 and the second protrusion 142 together form a stiffness strengthening group, which can effectively improve the stability and stiffness of the support body 10.

[0044] Preferably, the first protrusion 141 includes a C-shaped protrusion segment or an S-shaped protrusion segment, and the second protrusion 142 includes a C-shaped protrusion segment or an S-shaped protrusion segment. In this embodiment, the first protrusion 141 includes a C-shaped protrusion segment, and the second protrusion 142 includes a C-shaped protrusion segment.

[0045] Compared with straight convex segments, by setting C-shaped or S-shaped convex segments, the support body 10 can be strengthened from multiple directions.

[0046] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0047] Example 4 like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0048] In this embodiment, two reinforcing ribs 12 are formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. The two reinforcing ribs 12 are arranged vertically and side by side, and the two reinforcing ribs 12 together form a reinforcing group. A first protrusion 141 and a second protrusion 142 are formed on the rear side of the support body 10. The first protrusion 141 is located on one side of the horizontal direction of the reinforcing group, and the second protrusion 142 is located on the other side of the horizontal direction of the reinforcing group.

[0049] By setting the first protrusion 141 and the second protrusion 142, the first protrusion 141, the second protrusion 142, and each reinforcing rib 12 together form a stiffness reinforcement group, which can effectively improve the stability and stiffness of the support body 10. It should be noted that the shoe heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment also provides a shoe heel support.

[0050] Example 5 like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0051] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. There are at least two reinforcing ribs 12, each of which is arranged vertically and arranged side by side along the horizontal direction. A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 12.

[0052] All reinforcing ribs 12 have the same thickness, and all slots have the same width. The width of the slot is the same as the thickness of the reinforcing rib 12, or the width of the slot is slightly greater than the thickness of the reinforcing rib 12, or the width of the slot is slightly less than the thickness of the reinforcing rib 12. In this embodiment, the width of the slot is the same as the thickness of the reinforcing rib 12. By adopting the above technical solution, the stability and rigidity of the support body 10 are effectively improved.

[0053] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0054] Example 6 like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0055] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. The number of reinforcing ribs 12 is at least one, with one of the reinforcing ribs 12 being the first reinforcing rib.

[0056] In this embodiment, the number of reinforcing ribs 12 on the rear side of the support body 10 is one, so the reinforcing rib 12 is the first reinforcing rib 121. The first reinforcing rib 121 is located at a position corresponding to the middle position of the heel of the shoe along the width direction. Multiple horizontal stiffening groups are provided on the reinforcing area on the rear side of the support body 10. Each horizontal stiffening group is arranged sequentially along the length direction of the first reinforcing rib 121. Each horizontal stiffening group includes a first horizontal rib 131 and a second horizontal rib 132 respectively formed on the reinforcing area on the rear side of the support body 10.

[0057] In the same horizontal stiffening assembly, the first horizontal rib 131 is located on one side of the first reinforcing rib 121 in the horizontal direction, and the second horizontal rib 132 is located on the other side of the first reinforcing rib 121 in the horizontal direction. The first horizontal rib 131 and the second horizontal rib 132 are arranged symmetrically with the first reinforcing rib 121 as the center, and the first horizontal rib 131 and the second horizontal rib 132 are respectively fixedly connected to the first reinforcing rib 121.

[0058] By setting up horizontal stiffening groups, the two sides of the reinforcing rib 12 are supported and restricted to improve the stability of the reinforcing rib 12.

[0059] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0060] Example 7 like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0061] In this embodiment, reinforcing ribs 12 are formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. There are at least two reinforcing ribs 12, each arranged vertically and side by side along the horizontal direction. A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 12, one of which is a first groove. The first groove is located at a position corresponding to the middle of the heel of the shoe along the width direction. A third horizontal rib 133 is provided in the first groove. One end of the third horizontal rib 133 is fixedly connected to one side of the groove wall in the width direction of the first groove, and the other end of the third horizontal rib 133 is fixedly connected to the other side of the groove wall in the width direction of the first groove.

[0062] Furthermore, there are multiple third horizontal ribs 133, and each third horizontal rib 133 is arranged sequentially at intervals along the length direction of the first groove.

[0063] Each reinforcing rib 12 forms a reinforcing group. A first protrusion 141 and a second protrusion 142 are formed on the reinforcing area on the rear side of the support body 10. The first protrusion 141 is located on one side of the reinforcing group in the horizontal direction, and the second protrusion 142 is located on the other side of the reinforcing group in the horizontal direction.

[0064] The structural strength and deformation resistance of the strip groove are improved by setting a third horizontal rib 133.

[0065] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0066] Example 8 like Figure 8 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0067] In this embodiment, reinforcing ribs 12 are formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. There are at least two reinforcing ribs 12, each arranged vertically and side by side along the horizontal direction. A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 12, and each strip groove has a corresponding horizontal reinforcing rib group. Each horizontal reinforcing rib group includes multiple fourth horizontal ribs 134.

[0068] In the same horizontal reinforcing rib group, each fourth horizontal rib 134 is arranged sequentially at intervals along the length direction of the corresponding strip groove. One end of each fourth horizontal rib 134 is fixedly connected to one side of the groove wall in the width direction of the corresponding strip groove, and the other end of each fourth horizontal rib 134 is fixedly connected to the other side of the groove wall in the width direction of the corresponding strip groove.

[0069] The structural strength and deformation resistance of the strip groove are improved by setting up horizontal reinforcing rib groups.

[0070] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0071] Example 9 like Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 1 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 1 lies in the structure provided on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10.

[0072] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. There are at least two reinforcing ribs 12, each of which is arranged vertically and arranged side by side along the horizontal direction. A strip groove is formed between two adjacent reinforcing ribs 12.

[0073] All reinforcing ribs 12 have the same thickness, and all strip grooves have the same width. The width of the strip grooves is greater than the thickness of the reinforcing ribs 12. By adopting the above technical solution, the stability and rigidity of the support body 10 are effectively improved.

[0074] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0075] Example 10 like Figure 10 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe with a heel support embedded in the heel position. The shoe includes a sole and an upper disposed on the sole, and the heel support is embedded inside the upper.

[0076] For ease of description, in this embodiment, the side of the shoe facing the ground when in normal use is considered the lower side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the upper side of each component. The side of the shoe facing the toe is considered the front side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the rear side of each component. The side of a pair of shoes facing each other is considered the inner side of each component, and the corresponding side is considered the outer side of each component.

[0077] The heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, meaning that this embodiment essentially also provides a heel support.

[0078] The heel support includes the support body 10. The material of the heel support is PA, TPU or composite fiber.

[0079] The rear side of the support body 10 is provided with a reinforcing zone and a transition zone located below the reinforcing zone. The upper side of the transition zone connects with the reinforcing zone.

[0080] It should be noted that there is no strict and obvious dividing line between the support body 10 and the damping component 20, and there is no strict and obvious dividing line between the reinforcement zone and the transition zone.

[0081] At least one reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforced area; by setting the reinforcing rib 12, the rigidity of the support body 10 can be effectively improved.

[0082] The transition area has protrusions 11, which are polygonal grids, or several polygonal grooves. In this embodiment, protrusions 11 are formed on the transition area. Since the material of the heel support is PA, TPU, or composite fiber, this type of material has good elasticity. When running, after the heel lands, the compression deformation of the protrusions 11 or polygonal grooves absorbs the impact force, which can improve the cushioning performance of the transition area, thereby improving the cushioning performance of the heel and effectively protecting the foot. By setting protrusions 11 or several polygonal grooves, the stiffness of the support body 10 in the transition area is less than the stiffness of the support body 10 in the reinforcement area, so that the support body 10 can still have a cushioning function while ensuring support performance.

[0083] By adopting the above technical solution, the rigidity of the support body 10 can be effectively improved by setting the reinforcing rib 12 in the reinforcing area, so that the support performance of the shoe heel support is relatively good. By forming a protrusion 11 or several polygonal grooves in the transition area, the compression deformation of the protrusion 11 or several polygonal grooves can be used to absorb the impact force, thereby improving the shock absorption performance of the support body 10, so that the shock absorption performance of the shoe heel support is relatively good. The shoe heel support has good shock absorption function while ensuring support performance.

[0084] Because the shoe has the aforementioned heel support component at the heel position, and because the aforementioned heel support component has good cushioning function while ensuring support performance, the heel of the shoe has good cushioning function while ensuring support performance.

[0085] Example 11 Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 10 This embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 10 in that the structure of the heel support is different. The difference between the heel support in this embodiment and the heel support in Embodiment 10 is that in this embodiment, the bottom of each groove is further provided with several polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15.

[0086] Each polyhedral reinforcing block 15 has the same structure. Taking one of the polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 as an example, the polyhedral reinforcing block 15 includes at least a first reinforcing surface and a second reinforcing surface. The first reinforcing surface is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding strip groove, and the second reinforcing surface is fixedly connected to the wall of the corresponding strip groove.

[0087] In this embodiment, the polyhedral reinforcing block 15 is a tetrahedral reinforcing block.

[0088] By forming several polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 at the bottom of each strip groove, the rigidity of the position where the polyhedral reinforcing blocks 15 are set in the strip groove can be improved, thereby improving the deformation resistance of the bottom of the strip groove.

[0089] It should be noted that the heel support provided in this embodiment can also be sold independently, that is, this embodiment actually provides a heel support as well.

[0090] Example 12 Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 10 This embodiment provides a shoe, which differs from the shoe in Embodiment 10 in that the structure of the heel support is different. Specifically, the heel support in this embodiment differs from the heel support in Embodiment 10 in that the structure on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10 is different.

[0091] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 12 is formed on the reinforcing area of ​​the rear side of the support body 10. The reinforcing rib 12 is arranged vertically and is located at a position corresponding to the middle position of the heel of the shoe along the width direction.
