[0042] Combined with the attached drawings of the specification Figure 1-6 As shown, the overall sensing insole is formed by stacking the bottom insole 1 and the silica gel insole 2. As Figure 1 shown, the silica gel insole 2 is inclined, and there is a groove at the heel, so that the insole structure formed by the bottom insole 1 and the silica gel insole 2 fits the foot curve better. The anti-slip strips 3 installed on the surface of the bottom insole 1 are in a raised state, providing an installation space for the silica gel insole 2 and at the same time preventing the silica gel insole 2 from slipping during wearing and exercising. The flexible film base plate 6 installed inside the installation groove 4 and the installation hole 5, as Figures 3-5 shown, the top end of the installation groove 4 is flush with the top end of the breathable silica gel pad 11, reducing the discomfort during wearing.

Through the analysis of the data, users can timely understand their foot conditions and take corresponding measures.
[0051] Working principle: When using the sensing insole with a node-type flexible sensor series structure, the anti-slip strip 3 arranged at the upper end of the bottom insole 1 provides space for the installation of the silicone insole 2, and the installation groove 4 arranged inside the bottom insole 1 provides an installation position for the flexible film bottom plate 6. The breathable silicone pad 11 covering the surface of the flexible film bottom plate 6 is connected and supported by the positioning silicone particles 10 to prevent the wearer from excessively squeezing the flexible film sensor 7 arranged on the surface of the flexible film bottom plate 6 during exercise, wherein the flexible film sensor 7 is connected to the flexible soft cable 8 in series, and the output models of the flexible film sensor 7 in series are added, which can reduce The requirements for the detection instrument are met, and it is also convenient to improve the display accuracy, making the measurement results more accurate and reliable. The protective frame 902 located in the hollow space of the installation bin 901 provides protection for the surface of the flexible soft cable 8. After the upper end of the installation bin 901 is damaged by the user after being stepped on, the over-squeezed protective frame 902 synchronously squeezes the internal gas of the bellows telescopic tube 906 to enter the ventilation duct 904 and push the bellows connected to the telescopic top rod 903 to extend, so that the telescopic top rod 903 supports the bottom end of the protective frame 902 to maintain stability, avoiding the protective frame 902 from excessively descending and squeezing the flexible soft cable 8, causing the flexible soft cable 8 to be damaged, thereby extending the service life and increasing the overall practicality.
