[0023] Example 1:
[0024] A cardboard shoe tree includes a front side 14, a left side 12, a right side 13, a rear side 15, and an arched surface 11, all made of cardboard. The arched surface 11 is provided with a plurality of downwardly concave reinforcing rib grooves 111. The length direction of the reinforcing rib grooves 111 extends from the left side 12 to the right side 13. The plurality of reinforcing rib grooves 111 are distributed from front to back. The front side 14 is provided with a plurality of folding portions 141, which bring the left side 12 and the right side 13 closer to each other.
[0025] The cardboard in this embodiment can be formed by cutting, molding, and folding. The reinforcing rib groove 111 is directly molded by the mold, which is to mold the cardboard from top to bottom to form a groove on the cardboard. The cardboard is not penetrated or damaged. This reinforcing rib groove 111 can enhance the strength of the entire shoe tree and ensure the stability of the shape of the arch surface 11.
[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the folded portion 141 of the front side surface 14 forms an arcuate surface, and the left side surface 12 and the right side surface 13 are pulled toward the middle and approach each other. The folded portion 141 is preferably fixed by gluing.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the preferred rear side surface 15 of this embodiment includes a left extension surface 151 and a right extension surface 152. The left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 are respectively extended backward from the left side 12 and the right side 13. The left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 are bent toward the middle, overlapped with each other and fixed together.
[0028] In this embodiment, the left side 12 and the right side 13 overlap with each other and are fixed by glue, so that the front, back, left and right sides of the entire shoe tree are enclosed together, and the bottom is hollow. The arrangement of the rear side 15 can make the arch surface 11 stronger, and when squeezed from above, the left side 12 and the right side 13 can be prevented from expanding outward, thereby having a good effect on the arch surface 11.
[0029] Preferably, an opening is left between the top of the rear side surface 15 and the arch surface 11 .
[0030] This opening allows a hand to be inserted to take out or place the shoe tree.
[0031] The preferred cardboard in this embodiment includes an inner layer of grey board 21 and an outer layer of kraft paper 22. Hot melt adhesive 23 is usually used to compound the grey board 21 and the kraft paper 22. The grey board 21 has good support and the surface kraft paper 22 has good moisture resistance.
[0032] Example 2:
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes an arch extension surface 153, which is formed by the arch extension surface 153 extending backward from the arch surface 11. The arch extension surface 153 is bent toward the middle and overlaps with the left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 and is fixed together.
[0034] In this embodiment, the arch extension surface 153 is located at the outermost side of the rear side surface 15 , and the remaining technical features are the same as those in the first embodiment.
[0035] When the rear side surface 15 is folded, the left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 are first folded toward the middle and pasted, and then the arch extension surface 153 is folded to cover the left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 and pasted and fixed.
[0036] Example 3:
[0037] In this embodiment, the arch extension surface 153 is located at the innermost side of the rear side surface 15 , that is, only the position of the arch extension surface 153 in this embodiment is different from that in the second embodiment, and the other technical features are the same as those in the second embodiment.
[0038] When the rear side surface 15 of this embodiment is folded, the arch extension surface 153 is folded downward, and then the left extension surface 151 and the right extension surface 152 are folded toward the middle and glued together.
[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, certain improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
