[0048] Example 1
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a sole, including a midsole 10 and an outsole 11. The midsole 10 includes an inner midsole 101 and an outer midsole 102. The outer midsole 102 covers the bottom and side surfaces of the inner midsole 101. The material of the inner midsole 101 can be a material with high resilience to ensure that the sole has good shock absorption and rebound resilience. The outer midsole 102 covers the outer midsole 101 to protect the inner midsole 101, reducing the possibility of scratching and tearing. While ensuring good shock absorption and rebound resilience, it also improves the durability of the sole and thus enhances wearing comfort. In a preferred embodiment, the material hardness of the outer midsole 102 can be greater than the material hardness of the inner midsole 101, making the outer midsole 102 less prone to wear and tear, thereby further effectively extending the service life of the sole.
[0050] In addition, protective parts 1021 extending to the upper edge of the inner midsole 101 are provided on the top edges of both sides of the outer midsole 102. The hardness of the protective part 1021 is greater than the hardness of the midsole 10. In a preferred embodiment, the material of the protective part 1021 is TPU (full name in Chinese: thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber). The TPU material has a wide hardness range and good wear resistance. Since the upper edge of the inner midsole 101 is the connection position between the sole and the upper, the structural strength of the connection position can be enhanced by providing a protective part 1021 with a harder material, and the connection position can be protected, thereby extending the service life.
[0051] Furthermore, an inwardly concave elastic bending groove 1011 is provided at the heel position of the inner midsole 101, and a notch 1022 is provided at the heel position of the outer midsole 102 for exposing the elastic bending groove 1011. The provision of the elastic bending groove 1011 is conducive to greater elastic deformation at the heel position of the inner midsole 101. When the sole is compressed and deformed by pressure from the foot, the elastic bending groove 1011 will also deform accordingly. When the pressure is reduced, the elastic bending groove 1011 will quickly restore the deformation, thereby driving the sole to quickly restore the deformation, effectively improving the resilience of the sole, and thus improving the wearing comfort.
[0052] The outsole 11 is disposed on the bottom surface of the outer midsole 102 and includes a forefoot area 111, an arch area 112, and a rearfoot area 113. Multiple first anti-slip bumps 114 are provided on the outsole 11. These first anti-slip bumps 114 are irregularly shaped and arranged in multiple directions, effectively preventing lateral and longitudinal slippage and increasing friction between the sole and the ground, resulting in an excellent anti-slip effect. Furthermore, a shock-absorbing groove 115 is provided on the outsole 11, extending from the forefoot area 111 to the rearfoot area 113. The shock-absorbing groove 115 is located in the middle of the sole where the sole contacts the ground, reducing the impact of the ground on the sole when landing. When the sole is subjected to pressure from the foot, the shock-absorbing groove 115 deforms, dispersing the pressure along the path of the shock-absorbing groove 115, avoiding pressure concentration and providing a cushioning and shock-absorbing effect, thereby improving wearing comfort.
[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, at least one first observation window 1023 is provided through the side of the outer midsole 102. The first observation window 1023 is provided through the outer midsole 102 along the thickness direction. Consumers can intuitively observe the material of the inner midsole 101 through the first observation window 1023, thereby helping consumers understand the materials used in the shoe, which is very practical.
[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the outsole 11 is provided with a plurality of circular protrusions 1141 on the first anti-slip block 114 in the rear palm region 113. When a person turns, the center of gravity is based on the rear palm, and the turning action is performed with the rear palm region 113 as the rotation point. Therefore, the circular protrusions 1141 on the first anti-slip block 114 in the rear palm region 113 can assist in the turning action and improve agility during exercise.
[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the shock-absorbing groove 115 includes a first shock-absorbing groove 1151, a second shock-absorbing groove 1152 and a third shock-absorbing groove 1153 which are arranged in sequence. The second shock-absorbing groove 1152 has a triangular structure and extends from the arch area 112 to the rear palm area 113. The first shock-absorbing groove 1151 and the third shock-absorbing groove 1153 have a linear structure and are arranged to communicate with the outside world.
[0056] Specifically, by setting the shock-absorbing groove 115, a physical shock-absorbing effect is played, guiding the landing gait to be normal and not prone to twisting. The shock-absorbing groove 115 is connected to the outside world, which can guide the pressure to be transmitted and released to the outside world, effectively alleviating the impact of the ground on the sole when landing, and providing good protection for the foot.
[0057] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, a second observation window 11521 is provided through the second shock-absorbing groove 1152, and a third observation window 1024 corresponding to the second observation window 11521 is provided through the bottom surface of the outer midsole 102. Specifically, the second observation window 11521 is provided through the outsole 11 along the thickness direction, and the third observation window 1024 is provided through the outer midsole 102 along the thickness direction. Through the second observation window 11521 and the third observation window 1024, the material of the inner midsole 101 can be intuitively observed on the bottom surface of the sole, making it easy for consumers to select the material they need, which is very practical.
[0058] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the forefoot position of the bottom surface of the outer midsole 102 is provided with a plurality of second anti-skid protrusions 1025. The second anti-skid protrusions 1025 can be arranged in a staggered manner with the first anti-skid protrusions 114 to enhance the anti-skid performance of the forefoot position of the sole. The heel position of the bottom surface of the outer midsole 102 is provided with at least one triangular anti-skid protrusion 1026. The triangular structure can enhance grip, firmly grasp the ground in complex ground conditions, and improve the anti-skid performance of the heel position of the sole. The forefoot area 111 of the outsole 11 is provided with a first opening 1111 for exposing the second anti-skid protrusions 1025, and the heel area 113 of the outsole 11 is provided with a second opening 1131 for exposing the triangular anti-skid protrusions 1026. This allows the second anti-skid protrusions 1025 and the triangular anti-skid protrusions 1026 to be exposed on the ground surface of the sole and contact the ground, thereby improving the anti-skid performance of the sole.
[0059] Example 2
[0060] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment also provides a casual shoe, including an upper 2 and a sole 1. The sole 1 is the sole as described in Example 1. Since the toe position is prone to scratches and wear, the edge of the outsole 11 of the sole 1 extends toward the human foot to form a edging 116 that covers the toe position of the upper 2, and a number of triangular protrusions 1161 are provided on the edging 116. The edging 116 covering the toe position can play a protective role, and the triangular protrusions 1161 can further improve the wear resistance of the edging 116, thereby extending the service life of the shoe.
[0061] In addition, the upper 2 is disposed on the top surface of the sole 1. The upper 2 is provided with a tongue opening 21 and a tongue 22 disposed on the tongue opening 21. Several eyelets 23 for threading shoelaces are provided on the upper 2 on both sides of the tongue opening 21. A positioning hole 211 for threading a shoelace is provided at one end of the tongue opening 21. The positioning hole 211 secures the shoelaces in place, preventing them from shifting during donning and doffing, making donning and doffing easier.
[0062] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, ventilation areas 24 are provided on both sides of the upper 2 and at the forefoot of the upper 2. The ventilation areas 24 may be formed by air holes in a knitted upper or mesh fabric, increasing the breathability of the shoe and making it more comfortable to wear. Furthermore, film sheets 25 are provided on the bottoms of both sides of the upper 2. The film sheets 25 may be TPU matte films to enhance the waterproof effect of the sides of the upper 2.
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also includes a support portion 26. The material of the support portion 26 can be TPU, and the support portion 26 fits the shape of the ankle and covers the heel position of the upper 2 to provide support for the heel position, thereby preventing the heel position from twisting and rolling over.
[0064] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
