With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of sports health awareness, the demand for footwear is no longer limited to basic protection and support functions, but more attention is paid to the comfort and health of shoes. The breathability of the upper is one of the important factors affecting the comfort of shoes. If the upper has poor breathability, it is easy to cause sweating and moisture on the feet, which in turn breeds bacteria and produces odor, which not only affects the comfort of the wearer, but may also cause foot diseases. Therefore, how to design a breathable and comfortable upper has become an important issue facing footwear designers. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned defects or problems existing in the background technology, and to provide a comfortable, antibacterial and breathable upper and shoe. The shoes made of the upper have good breathability, are comfortable to wear, can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, and enhance the wearing experience of users.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, each embodiment of the present invention adopts the following technical solutions but is not limited to the following solutions:

[0005] The first technical scheme relates to a comfortable, antibacterial and breathable upper, comprising: an upper base layer, which is woven by a plurality of TPU core-spun yarns in an interlaced manner to form at least one TPU core-spun yarn arrangement layer, wherein each of the TPU core-spun yarns is fixedly connected by hot-melt pressing at an overlapping position, and a breathable winding gap is formed between the TPU core-spun yarns after weaving; a breathable and soft layer, which is arranged on the upper base layer; an antibacterial and deodorizing layer, which is in direct contact with the instep, is arranged on the breathable and soft layer, and is woven by interlacing warp and weft, wherein the warp is an antibacterial fiber thread, and the weft is a deodorizing fiber thread; a plurality of air flow channels, which run through the breathable and soft layer and the antibacterial and deodorizing layer to enhance the air permeability of the upper.

[0006] The second technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the surfaces of the antibacterial fiber thread and the deodorizing fiber thread are both covered with a cotton layer.

[0007] The third technical solution is based on the second technical solution, wherein the antibacterial fiber thread is made of chitin fiber.

[0008] The fourth technical solution is based on the second technical solution, wherein the deodorizing fiber line is made of bamboo charcoal fiber.

[0009] The fifth technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the breathable and soft layer is woven with a soft material with excellent breathability to form a mesh structure.

[0010] The sixth technical solution is based on the fifth technical solution, wherein the breathable and soft layer is made of sandwich mesh cloth.

[0011] The seventh technical solution is based on the first technical solution, wherein the TPU core-spun yarn is composed of a first TPU wire and a second TPU wire, wherein the second TPU wire is arranged on the outside of the first TPU wire in a covered manner.

[0012] The eighth technical solution is based on any one of the first to seventh technical solutions, wherein a shoe comprises a sole and an upper arranged on the sole, and the upper adopts the above-mentioned comfortable, antibacterial and breathable upper.

[0013] From the above description of the various embodiments of the present invention, it can be seen that, compared with the prior art, the various embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0014] In the first technical solution and related embodiments, the upper achieves good air permeability, antibacterial and deodorizing functions, and a soft and comfortable wearing experience through structural design and material selection. First, the upper base is woven from a number of TPU core-spun yarns and fixedly connected by hot-melt pressing at the overlapping position. This structure forms a breathable winding gap between the yarns. These gaps can effectively promote air circulation and reduce the stuffiness of the feet, thereby keeping the shoes dry and comfortable. Secondly, the antibacterial and deodorizing layer is directly in contact with the instep and is woven from warp and weft, wherein the warp is an antibacterial fiber line and the weft is a deodorizing fiber line. This structural design enables the upper to have the dual functions of antibacterial and deodorizing. The antibacterial fiber line can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, while the deodorizing fiber line can absorb and decompose the odor molecules of the feet, thereby keeping the shoes clean and hygienic. The breathable and soft layer is arranged on the upper base, providing a soft touch to the upper and increasing the comfort of wearing. This breathable and soft layer is usually made of a material with good elasticity, which can adapt to the shape and movement of the foot and reduce the friction and pressure of the shoe surface on the foot. Finally, several air flow channels are set in the upper to penetrate the breathable and soft layer and the antibacterial and deodorizing layer. These channels can further promote air circulation and enhance the breathability of the upper. When the foot moves, the air flow channels can introduce external air into the shoe, while discharging the heat and moisture in the shoe, keeping the shoe ventilated and dry.

[0015] In the second technical solution and related embodiments, a cotton layer is covered on the surface of the antibacterial fiber line and the deodorizing fiber line, which can increase comfort, improve hygroscopicity, and enhance the antibacterial and deodorizing effects. The cotton layer, with its soft and skin-friendly characteristics, provides a comfortable cushion for the antibacterial fiber line and the deodorizing fiber line. When the instep is in direct contact with the upper, this cotton layer can reduce the friction and irritation of the fiber line to the skin, thereby providing a more comfortable wearing experience. The cotton layer has excellent hygroscopicity and can quickly absorb sweat and moisture generated by the foot. This helps to keep the inside of the shoe dry and reduce the growth of bacteria and the generation of odor. Although the cotton layer itself does not have the function of antibacterial or deodorizing, it can keep the surface of the fiber line dry and reduce the breeding environment of bacteria and fungi.

[0016] In the third technical solution and related embodiments, chitin fiber is a natural material with strong antibacterial ability. The antibacterial fiber line made of chitin fiber can significantly inhibit the growth of bacteria in shoes, reduce the risk of foot infection, and provide users with a healthier and safer wearing environment. The chemical and biological properties of chitin fiber are similar to those of human tissue, so there is no repulsion problem between its products and the human body. This means that the antibacterial fiber line made of chitin fiber can come into contact with human skin well and will not cause allergic reactions or discomfort.

[0017] In the fourth technical solution and related embodiments, bamboo charcoal fiber has excellent adsorption performance, can effectively adsorb and decompose odor molecules in shoes, so as to keep the shoes fresh. Bamboo charcoal fiber also has good antibacterial properties, can effectively prevent the growth of bacteria and mites, and provide a healthier and more hygienic environment for feet. Bamboo charcoal fiber has excellent moisture absorption and air permeability, can quickly absorb sweat produced by feet, and discharge moisture through the pores of fibers, keeping the shoes dry and comfortable. This characteristic is very important for preventing feet from getting wet and bacteria from growing. At the same time, the softness and fluffiness of bamboo charcoal fiber make the upper softer and more comfortable, reduce friction and pressure with feet, and improve wearing comfort.

[0018] In the fifth technical solution and related embodiments, by using soft materials to weave into a mesh structure, the breathable and soft layer of the upper can provide an excellent wearing experience. This structure can effectively fit the foot shape and reduce the friction and pressure of the foot. The design of the mesh structure makes the upper have excellent air permeability. Air can freely pass through the mesh structure and fully exchange with the foot, keeping the foot dry and comfortable.

[0019] In the sixth technical solution and related embodiments, the sandwich mesh fabric has a unique three-dimensional mesh structure, which enables it to provide excellent air permeability. This structure allows air to circulate freely, effectively reducing the dampness and stuffiness in the shoe, and keeping the feet dry and comfortable. The sandwich mesh fabric is made of soft polymer synthetic fiber yarn, and has excellent softness and elasticity after warp knitting. When subjected to external force, it can extend in the direction of the force, and when the tension is reduced or removed, the mesh can return to its original shape.

[0020] In the seventh technical solution and related embodiments, the overall strength of the yarn can be significantly improved by covering the first TPU thread with the second TPU thread. This structure makes the yarn less likely to break or deform when subjected to tension or external force, thereby enhancing the durability and stability of the upper. Since the second TPU thread is located on the outer layer of the yarn, it bears the main wear and friction. This design can protect the first TPU thread in the inner layer, reduce its wear and damage, and thus extend the service life of the yarn and the upper.

[0021] In the eighth technical solution and related embodiments, the design of the upper of the present application fully considers the comfort of the wearer, such as the breathable and soft layer made of sandwich mesh cloth, the breathable base layer composed of TPU core-spun yarn, etc. These designs can ensure that the upper has good air permeability and softness, and provide the wearer with a comfortable wearing experience. The antibacterial fiber line and deodorizing fiber line in the upper, especially when chitin fiber and bamboo charcoal fiber are used, can significantly inhibit the growth of bacteria, effectively decompose and absorb odors, and keep the environment inside the shoe fresh and hygienic. Through the unique design of TPU core-spun yarn, that is, the coating structure of the first TPU line and the second TPU line, the upper has higher strength and wear resistance, and can withstand long-term use and friction without being easily damaged. The breathable winding gap formed between the TPU core-spun yarns of the upper base layer, as well as the setting of the airflow channel, greatly enhances the air permeability of the upper, helps to reduce the stuffiness of the feet, and keeps the inside of the shoe dry.

[0032] In the claims, specification and drawings of the present utility model, if the terms "include", "have" and their variations are used, they are intended to mean "including but not limited to".

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 3 ,like Figure 1As shown, a comfortable, antibacterial and breathable shoe upper comprises an upper base layer 1, a breathable and soft layer 3 and an antibacterial and deodorizing layer 2.

[0034] The upper base layer 1 is composed of a plurality of TPU core-spun yarns 5. TPU yarns are yarns made of thermoplastic polyurethane (Thermoplastic Polyurethane). TPU is a polymer material with excellent elasticity and wear resistance. It also has various properties such as oil resistance, chemical resistance, and low temperature resistance. The upper base layer 1 is woven by a plurality of TPU core-spun yarns 5 in an interwoven manner to form at least one layer of TPU core-spun yarn 5 arrangement layer, wherein each TPU core-spun yarn 5 is fixedly connected by hot-melt pressing at the overlapping position, and a breathable winding gap is formed between the TPU core-spun yarns 5 after weaving.

[0035] The TPU core-spun yarn 5 includes a first TPU line 6 and a second TPU line 7. Figure 3 As shown, the second TPU wire 7 is arranged outside the first TPU wire 6 in a coated manner. The coating of the first TPU wire 6 by the second TPU wire 7 can significantly improve the overall strength of the yarn. This structure makes the yarn less likely to break or deform when subjected to tension or external force, thereby enhancing the durability and stability of the upper. Since the second TPU wire 7 is located on the outer layer of the yarn, it bears the main wear and friction. This design can protect the first TPU wire 6 of the inner layer, reduce its wear and damage, and thus extend the service life of the yarn and the upper.

[0036] Breathable soft layer 3, such as Figure 1 As shown, it is arranged on the upper base layer 1, between the upper base layer 1 and the antibacterial deodorizing layer 2. The breathable soft layer 3 is woven into a mesh structure using a soft material with excellent air permeability. By using a soft material to weave into a mesh structure, the breathable soft layer of the upper can provide an excellent wearing experience. This structure can effectively fit the foot shape and reduce the friction and pressure of the foot. The design of the mesh structure makes the upper have excellent air permeability. Air can freely pass through the mesh structure and fully exchange with the foot to keep the foot dry and comfortable. Specifically, the breathable soft layer 3 is made of sandwich mesh cloth. The sandwich mesh cloth has a unique three-dimensional mesh structure, which enables it to provide excellent air permeability. This structure allows air to circulate freely, effectively reduces the moisture and stuffiness in the shoe, and keeps the foot dry and comfortable. The sandwich mesh cloth is made of soft polymer synthetic fiber yarn and has excellent softness and elasticity after warp knitting. When subjected to external force, it can extend in the direction of the force, and when the pulling force is reduced or removed, the mesh can return to its original shape.

[0037] The antibacterial and deodorizing layer 2 is in direct contact with the foot surface and is arranged on the breathable and soft layer 3. Figure 2As shown, the antibacterial fiber line 8 is woven by warp and weft, wherein the warp is an antibacterial fiber line 8 and the weft is a deodorizing fiber line 9. Specifically, the antibacterial fiber line 8 is made of chitin fiber, and the deodorizing fiber line 9 is made of bamboo charcoal fiber. The surfaces of the antibacterial fiber line 8 and the deodorizing fiber line 9 are covered with a cotton layer. In this embodiment, chitin fiber is a natural material with strong antibacterial ability. The antibacterial fiber line 8 made of chitin fiber can significantly inhibit the growth of bacteria in the shoe, reduce the risk of foot infection, and provide users with a healthier and safer wearing environment. The chemical and biological properties of chitin fiber are similar to those of human tissue, so there is no repulsion problem between its products and the human body. This means that the antibacterial fiber line 8 made of chitin fiber can be well in contact with human skin without causing allergic reactions or discomfort. Bamboo charcoal fiber has excellent adsorption properties and can effectively adsorb and decompose odor molecules in the shoe, thereby keeping the shoe fresh. Bamboo charcoal fiber also has good antibacterial properties, which can effectively prevent the growth of bacteria and mites, and provide a healthier and more hygienic environment for the foot. Bamboo charcoal fiber has excellent hygroscopicity and air permeability, can quickly absorb the sweat produced by the feet, and discharge the moisture through the pores of the fiber, keeping the shoes dry and comfortable. This feature is very important for preventing moisture and bacterial growth in the feet. At the same time, the softness and fluffiness of bamboo charcoal fiber make the upper softer and more comfortable, reduce the friction and pressure with the feet, and improve the comfort of wearing. In this embodiment, a cotton layer is covered on the surface of the antibacterial fiber line 8 and the deodorizing fiber line 9, which can increase comfort, improve hygroscopicity, and enhance the antibacterial and deodorizing effect. The cotton layer provides a comfortable cushion for the antibacterial fiber line 8 and the deodorizing fiber line 9 with its soft and skin-friendly characteristics. When the foot is in direct contact with the upper, this cotton layer can reduce the friction and irritation of the fiber line to the skin, thereby providing a more comfortable wearing experience. The cotton layer has excellent hygroscopicity and can quickly absorb sweat and moisture produced by the feet. This helps to keep the shoes dry and reduce the growth of bacteria and the generation of odor. Although the cotton layer itself does not have antibacterial or deodorizing functions, it can keep the surface of the fiber dry and reduce the breeding environment for bacteria and fungi.

[0038] Air flow channel 4, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are several of them, which penetrate the breathable and soft layer 3 and the antibacterial and deodorizing layer 2 to enhance the air permeability of the upper.

[0039] In this embodiment, the upper achieves good air permeability, antibacterial and deodorizing functions, and soft and comfortable wearing experience through structural design and material selection. First, the upper base layer 1 is woven by a number of TPU core-spun yarns 5, and is fixedly connected by hot-melt pressing at the overlapping position. This structure forms a breathable winding gap between the yarns. These gaps can effectively promote air circulation, reduce the stuffiness of the feet, and thus keep the shoes dry and comfortable. Secondly, the antibacterial and deodorizing layer 2 is directly in contact with the foot surface, and is woven by warp and weft, wherein the warp is an antibacterial fiber line 8, and the weft is a deodorizing fiber line 9. This structural design enables the upper to have the dual functions of antibacterial and deodorizing. The antibacterial fiber line 8 can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, while the deodorizing fiber line 9 can adsorb and decompose the odor molecules of the feet, thereby keeping the shoes clean and hygienic. The breathable and soft layer 3 is arranged on the upper base layer 1, providing a soft touch to the upper and increasing the comfort of wearing. This breathable and soft layer 3 is usually made of a material with good elasticity, which can adapt to the shape and movement of the foot and reduce the friction and pressure of the shoe surface on the foot. Finally, a number of air flow channels 4 are set in the upper to penetrate the breathable and soft layer 3 and the antibacterial and deodorizing layer 2. These channels can further promote air circulation and enhance the air permeability of the upper. When the foot moves, the air flow channel 4 can introduce external air into the shoe, and at the same time discharge the heat and moisture in the shoe, so as to keep the shoe ventilated and dry.

[0040] A shoe comprises a sole and an upper arranged on the sole, wherein the upper adopts the above-mentioned comfortable antibacterial and breathable upper. The design of the upper of the present application takes full account of the comfort of the wearer, such as the breathable and soft layer 3 made of sandwich mesh cloth, the breathable base layer composed of TPU core-spun yarn 5, etc. These designs can ensure that the upper has good air permeability and softness, and provide the wearer with a comfortable wearing experience. The antibacterial fiber line 8 and the deodorizing fiber line 9 in the upper, especially when chitin fiber and bamboo charcoal fiber are used, can significantly inhibit the growth of bacteria, effectively decompose and absorb odor, and keep the environment inside the shoe fresh and hygienic. Through the unique design of the TPU core-spun yarn 5, that is, the coating structure of the first TPU line 6 and the second TPU line 7, the upper has higher strength and wear resistance, and can withstand long-term use and friction without being easily damaged. The breathable winding gap formed between the TPU core-spun yarn 5 of the upper base layer 1, and the setting of the airflow channel 4, greatly enhance the air permeability of the upper, help reduce the stuffiness of the foot, and keep the shoe dry.
