Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of breathable and moisture-wicking functional footwear technology, and more particularly to a breathable and moisture-wicking system and a functional footwear having the system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, footwear products related to foot therapy on the market can be mainly divided into the following categories: Magnetic therapy shoes: By embedding magnets in specific locations on the sole of the shoe (such as the Yongquan acupoint), the magnetic field effect is used to stimulate acupoints on the sole of the foot, aiming to promote blood circulation and relieve fatigue.

[0003] Mechanical massage shoes: These shoes use airbags, silicone contact matrix, or wave-shaped sole structure to simulate manual massage techniques when the user is standing or walking. They physically stimulate the reflex zones on the soles of the feet and are claimed to relieve muscle tension and unblock meridians.

[0004] Air-conditioned temperature-controlled shoes: These shoes have a built-in miniature fan or air circulation system that regulates the microclimate inside the shoe through active ventilation or temperature control elements (such as heating elements) to keep feet dry or provide warmth.

[0005] Although the above products are widely available on the market, they have the following problems: The shoes have poor breathability and cannot be adjusted according to needs. Ordinary therapeutic shoes often lack targeted care designs for fungal infections, itching, ulcers, and other problems in special areas such as between the toes. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A breathable and moisture-wicking system, comprising: The bottom plate has evenly distributed ventilation slots on its top, with a strip-shaped ridge between two ventilation slots; The mounting cavity is located at the bottom of the base plate. A mounting plate is installed inside the mounting cavity, and multiple heating elements are mounted on the top of the mounting plate. The mounting cavity has strip-shaped grooves positioned to match the positions of raised strips. The mounting box contains a fan and a power module. A partition plate is detachably installed on one side of the mounting box, and an air inlet is provided on the partition plate. The air inlet is equipped with equally spaced baffles. A switch module is provided on one side of the mounting box. The blower tube extends into the mounting box at one end and into the ventilation slot at the other end. The constraint structure is located on the top of the base plate.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a cover plate is detachably installed at the bottom of the mounting cavity of the base plate.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: a support strip is fixed to the bottom of the base plate, the support strip is a ring structure adapted to the shape of the base plate, and a support block is fixed to the bottom of the base plate, the support block being disposed inside the support strip.

[0010] A functional shoe includes a shoe body and the aforementioned breathable and moisture-wicking system. The shape of the shoe body is adapted to the bottom plate of the breathable and moisture-wicking system. The bottom plate is installed on the inner side of the bottom of the shoe body. The shoe body has air holes adapted to the end of the ventilation groove. A restraining structure is provided on the shoe body.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: the shoe body is provided with a plurality of mounting seats, a threaded seat is detachably installed in the mounting seat by means of threads, a sleeve is fixed in the threaded seat, a connecting tube is slidably connected in the sleeve, a liquid bladder is connected to the top of the connecting tube, the bottom of the connecting tube passes through the sleeve, a cotton sleeve is installed on the outside of the bottom of the connecting tube, a seepage micropore is opened on the outside of the bottom of the connecting tube, and an end cap is detachably installed on the top of the liquid bladder.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of circumferentially distributed elastic support strips are installed on the inner side of the connecting pipe.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: the bottom end of the connecting tube is fixed with an elastic plug, and the ventilation groove has an inverted T-shaped structure. When the connecting tube is inserted into the shoe body, the elastic plug is inserted into the ventilation groove based on the deformation.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: a connecting rope is installed on the top of the shoe body, and a sealing plug is installed at one end of the connecting rope. The sealing plug is detachably installed in the mounting base.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: the constraint structure includes a front upper and a rear upper, which are integrally disposed on the shoe body.

The connecting tube is then inserted into the toe gaps, and health care liquid is added to the liquid bladder. After the liquid is added, it can seep into the cotton sleeve through micropores, thereby continuously outputting to the toe gaps through the cotton sleeve. This method can better care for the hard-to-reach areas between the toes, improving functionality.

[0020] 4. Because the liquid bladder and end cap are located on the outside of the shoe body, the present invention can add liquid at any time, which improves convenience. The multiple mounting bases can better adapt to different usage needs.

[0021] 5. By setting up structures such as elastic plugs, this invention can assist in fixation and prevent structural misalignment; by setting up constraint structures, the tightness can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the connecting strap at the front of the shoe after wearing the functional shoes; by setting up a front panel and a breathable mesh, the front panel can be installed or removed according to actual needs, and the breathable mesh allows for ventilation, improving the flexibility of use.

[0024] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0025] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] Example 1: A breathable and moisture-wicking system, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, it includes: The bottom plate 2 has evenly distributed ventilation slots 14 on its top, and a strip-shaped ridge is formed between two ventilation slots 14. The mounting cavity is located at the bottom of the base plate 2. A mounting plate 24 is installed inside the mounting cavity, and multiple heating elements 23 are mounted on the top of the mounting plate 24. A strip-shaped groove is formed inside the mounting cavity, and the position of the strip-shaped groove matches the position of the strip-shaped protrusion. Mounting box 5 contains a fan and a power module. A partition plate is detachably mounted on one side of mounting box 5, and an air inlet 4 is provided on the partition plate. The air inlet 4 is provided with equally spaced baffles. A switch module is provided on one side of mounting box 5 for controlling the operation of the fan, heating element 23, and other structures. The power module is electrically connected to each electrical device. The cover plate 17 and the power module adopt a hidden wiring design, with the wiring passing through the inside of the base plate 2; or a second switch module and power module can be provided in the mounting cavity for independent power supply and control. Those skilled in the art can arrange the circuit based on existing technology, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment. Air blower 3, one end of air blower 3 extends into the mounting box 5, and the other end of air blower 3 extends into one end of the ventilation slot 14; The constraint structure is located on the top of the base plate 2.

[0027] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a cover plate 17 is detachably installed at the bottom of the mounting cavity of the base plate 2.

[0028] To facilitate protection of the mounting cavity and provide support; such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a support strip 12 is fixed to the bottom of the base plate 2. The support strip 12 has a ring structure that is adapted to the shape of the base plate 2. A support block 16 is fixed to the bottom of the base plate 2. The support block 16 is located inside the support strip 12. By setting up structures such as support bars 12 and support blocks 16, the base plate 2 can be reliably supported when stepped on, while also protecting the internal structure of the mounting cavity.

[0029] Example 2: A functional shoe having the breathable and moisture-wicking system of Embodiment 1, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, the invention includes a shoe body 1 and a breathable and moisture-wicking system according to Embodiment 1. The shape of the shoe body 1 is adapted to the bottom plate 2. The bottom plate 2 is installed on the inner side of the bottom of the shoe body 1. The shoe body 1 has air holes adapted to the end of the ventilation groove 14. The constraint structure is provided on the shoe body 1. By incorporating the shoe body 1 and a breathable and moisture-wicking system, the shoe can be worn on the foot. The heating element 23 heats the foot, while a fan outputs airflow through the ventilation channels 14. This method heats and wicks moisture from the bottom of the foot. The ventilation channels 14 and the fan enhance breathability, allowing air to escape more effectively from the vents in the shoe body 1, ensuring dryness inside the shoe. Furthermore, they effectively control the temperature within the ventilation channels 14, resulting in a more balanced and comfortable temperature. This device is suitable for daily foot care, maximizing comfort while maintaining functionality.

[0030] To improve functionality; such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the shoe body 1 is provided with multiple mounting seats 19. A threaded seat 26 is detachably installed in the mounting seat 19 by threads. A sleeve 27 is fixed in the threaded seat 26. A connecting tube 21 is slidably connected to the sleeve 27. A liquid bladder 10 is connected to the top of the connecting tube 21. The bottom of the connecting tube 21 passes through the sleeve 27. A cotton sleeve 22 is installed on the outside of the bottom of the connecting tube 21. A seepage micropore is opened on the outside of the bottom of the connecting tube 21. An end cap 20 is detachably installed on the top of the liquid bladder 10. By setting up structures such as liquid bladder 10 and cotton sleeve 22, and with the mounting base 19 located at the front of the top surface of the shoe body 1, the threaded seat 26 can be installed on the corresponding mounting base 19 after wearing the functional shoe, and the connecting tube 21 can be inserted into the toe gaps to add health care liquid, such as liquid athlete's foot treatment medicine, essential oil, etc. After the liquid is added, it can seep into the cotton sleeve 22 through micropores, and then be continuously output to the toe gaps through the cotton sleeve 22. This method can better care for the dead corners between the toes and improve functionality. Since the liquid bladder 10 and end cap 20 are located on the outside of the shoe body 1, liquid can be added at any time, improving convenience; the material of the connecting tube 21 should be a material with a certain deformation capacity and a certain hardness, such as PVC, PC, PS, etc., and multiple mounting seats 19 are provided to better adapt to different usage needs.

[0031] To prevent the connecting pipe 21 from being excessively squeezed and bent, which could lead to blockage of the liquid delivery; such as Figure 7 As shown, multiple circumferentially distributed elastic support bars 18 are installed on the inner side of the connecting pipe 21.

[0032] To improve installation stability and prevent structural misalignment; such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the bottom end of the connecting pipe 21 is fixed with an elastic plug 25, and the ventilation groove 14 has an inverted T-shaped structure. When the connecting pipe 21 is inserted into the shoe body 1, the elastic plug 25 is inserted into the ventilation groove 14 based on deformation. By setting up structures such as the elastic plug 25, it is possible to achieve the purpose of auxiliary fixation and avoid structural misalignment.

[0033] To facilitate the sealing of unused mounting brackets 19; such as Figure 6 As shown, a connecting rope 9 is installed on the top of the shoe body 1, and a sealing plug 8 is installed at one end of the connecting rope 9. The sealing plug 8 is detachably installed in the mounting base 19.

[0034] For better wearing; such as Figure 2 As shown, the constraint structure includes a front upper part 7 and a rear upper part 15. The front upper part 7 and the rear upper part 15 are integrally disposed on the shoe body 1. A connecting strap 6 is fixed on one side of the rear upper part 15. The two ends of the connecting strap 6 are detachably connected to the front upper part 7 by Velcro. By setting a constraint structure, the tightness can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the connecting strap 6 on the front of the shoe upper 7 after the functional shoes are worn.

[0035] To improve breathability; such as Figure 2As shown, a breathable mesh 13 is provided at the front end of the shoe body 1, and a front flap 11 is detachably connected to the outer side of the front end of the shoe body 1 via Velcro. The size of the front flap 11 is larger than that of the breathable mesh 13. By setting the front baffle 11 and the breathable mesh 13, the front baffle 11 can be installed or removed according to actual needs, and the breathable mesh 13 allows for ventilation, thus improving the flexibility of use.
