[0015] As can be seen from the above description of the various embodiments of the present utility model, compared with the prior art, the various embodiments of the present utility model have the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In the first technical solution and related embodiments, the shoe tongue is woven into a single, three-dimensional arc shape using weaving technology, eliminating the need for any splicing. This ensures that the shoe tongue closely and smoothly conforms to the arc of the instep along its extension direction, completely eliminating the friction and discomfort that may be caused by hardening or unevenness in traditional splicing methods. The arc of the shoe tongue is designed according to ergonomic principles, naturally conforming to the natural curve of the instep, providing all-around comfortable support, and ensuring the stability and fit of the shoe tongue during foot movement. The shoe tongue uses a highly elastic and highly breathable loop-knitted material, which has excellent elasticity and breathability. Its elastic properties allow the shoe tongue to deform with the movement of the foot, reducing the feeling of restriction on the foot and ensuring the flexibility and freedom of movement. At the same time, its high breathability ensures that the feet are dry and comfortable, effectively wicking away moisture even during long-term, high-intensity exercise, preventing stuffiness from affecting the athlete's performance and comfort.

[0017] In the second technical solution and related embodiments, a combination of high-elastic polyester and polyester hot-melt yarn is used as the first yarn. The high-elastic polyester ensures that the tongue has good tensile and resilience properties, allowing it to closely conform to the instep and deform with foot movement, reducing the feeling of restriction and improving wearing comfort. The polyester hot-melt yarn enhances the structural stability and abrasion resistance of the tongue. In addition, this combination material also retains good breathability, allowing smooth airflow inside the tongue, which helps keep the feet dry and comfortable.

[0018] In the third technical solution and related embodiments, the shoe tongue is designed with at least one pair of perforated strips arranged along the extension direction of the shoe tongue body. The perforated strips are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the center line of the shoe tongue body. The shoelaces on both sides of the shoe tongue body cross and pass through the corresponding perforated strips, so that when the shoelaces are tightened, a balanced tension can be applied to the shoe tongue body from different directions to prevent the shoe tongue from tilting. By directly weaving the perforated strips on the shoe tongue, the step of subsequent perforation processing required in traditional methods is eliminated, simplifying the entire production process, improving production efficiency, reducing production costs, and facilitating large-scale production and promotion.

[0019] In the fourth technical solution and related embodiments, since the end of the shoe tongue body near the toes is usually connected to the shoe upper, setting a perforated band near the ankle can achieve a more balanced fixation of the shoe tongue.

[0020] In the fifth technical solution and related embodiments, the bulge is located at the intersection of the shoe tongue and the shoelaces in the middle of the shoe tongue body, and protrudes from the surface of the shoe tongue body. When the shoelaces are tightened, the bulge can act as a cushion, effectively dispersing the pressure of the shoelaces on the instep, avoiding direct pressure on the instep, and protecting the instep from potential injury.

[0021] In the sixth technical solution and related embodiments, the bulge woven from the first yarn has a material and elasticity that are coordinated with the tongue body, providing better fit and support.

[0022] In the seventh technical solution and related embodiments, the cushioning part is located at the upper edge of the extension direction of the shoe tongue body, close to the wearer's ankle, effectively alleviating the problem of the traditional shoe tongue being too hard or too tight, which may cause the foot to feel cramped.

[0023] In the eighth technical solution and related embodiments, the cushioning part is woven from the first yarn in a relatively loose weave. The width of the cushioning part is 12mm, which adapts to the shape of the ankle and ensures the fit and comfort of the shoe tongue at the wearer's ankle position.

[0024] In the ninth technical solution and related embodiments, the first yarn has ventilation holes during the weaving process to improve the breathability of the shoe tongue.

[0025] In the tenth technical solution and related embodiments, the shoe tongue design follows ergonomic principles, conforming to the arch of the foot, and uses highly elastic and breathable flyknit yarn to improve wearing comfort. Perforated strips are directly formed during the weaving process to prevent the shoe tongue from shifting, while also optimizing the production process and improving efficiency. The bulge and cushioning design effectively avoids pressure on the instep, reducing the risk of sports injuries. Attached Figure Description

[0037] See Figs. 1 to 3 ,like Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 As shown, a shoe tongue includes a shoe tongue body 2, which has an integral three-dimensional arc shape along the extension direction of the shoe tongue to conform to the arc of the instep; the shoe tongue body 2 is woven with a first yarn, which is a highly elastic and highly breathable loop yarn to adapt to the movement of the foot and deform.

[0038] Specifically, the first yarn is composed of a combination of high-elastic polyester and polyester hot-melt yarn. The high-elastic polyester ensures the tongue has excellent stretch and resilience, allowing it to closely conform to the instep and deform with foot movement, reducing restriction and improving comfort. The polyester hot-melt yarn enhances the tongue's structural stability and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, this combination material retains good breathability, allowing for smooth airflow inside the tongue, helping to keep feet dry and comfortable.

[0039] The shoe tongue body 2 is provided with a perforated band 4, a bulge 5, and a cushioning part 6.

[0040] At least one pair of perforated straps 4 are arranged along the extension direction of the tongue body 2. The perforated straps 4 are located in the central area of ​​the tongue body 2 and are symmetrically positioned on both sides of the center line of the tongue body 2. Specifically, the perforated straps 4 are located at the end of the tongue body 2 near the ankle. The perforated straps 4 have eyelets for the shoelaces 3 on both sides of the tongue body 2 to cross through, and can apply balanced tension to the tongue body 2 from different directions to prevent the tongue from tilting. Since the end of the tongue body 2 near the toes is usually connected to the upper 1, placing the perforated straps 4 near the ankle allows for more balanced fixation of the tongue.

[0041] The perforated strip 4 is woven integrally with the shoe tongue body 2 during the weaving process. By weaving the perforated strip 4 directly onto the shoe tongue body 2, the step of subsequent perforation processing required in traditional methods is eliminated, simplifying the entire production process, improving production efficiency, reducing production costs, and facilitating large-scale production and promotion.

[0042] Several bulges 5 protrude from the surface of the shoe tongue body 2 and are located at the intersection of the shoe tongue body 2 and the shoelaces 3 in the middle; the bulges 5 are located below the perforated strap 4 extending along the shoe tongue body 2. The bulges 5 are woven from the first yarn filling. When the shoelaces 3 are tightened, the bulges 5 can act as a cushion, effectively dispersing the pressure of the shoelaces 3 on the instep, avoiding direct pressure on the instep, and protecting the instep from potential injury. The bulges 5, woven from the first yarn filling, have a material and elasticity that are coordinated with the shoe tongue body 2, providing better fit and support.

[0043] The cushioning portion 6 is located at the upper edge of the extending direction of the tongue body 2, near the ankle. The thickness of the cushioning portion 6 is greater than the rest of the tongue body 2. The cushioning portion 6 is woven from the first yarn and has a width of 12mm. The cushioning portion 6 effectively alleviates the problem of foot discomfort caused by traditional tongues being too stiff or too tight. The cushioning portion 6 is woven from the first yarn using a relatively loose weave, and its width of 12mm along the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the tongue body 2 is set to adapt to the shape of the ankle, ensuring the fit and comfort of the tongue at the wearer's ankle.

[0044] The tongue body 2 also features several ventilation holes (not shown in the diagram), which are formed during the weaving process of the first yarn. These ventilation holes, retained during the weaving process, enhance the breathability of the tongue. They further promote airflow within the tongue, keeping the feet dry and comfortable.

[0045] In this embodiment, the tongue is woven into a single, three-dimensional arc shape using weaving technology, eliminating the need for any splicing. This ensures the tongue fits snugly and smoothly against the arch of the instep along its extension direction, completely eliminating friction and discomfort that can occur with traditional splicing methods due to hardening or unevenness. The tongue's arc is designed according to ergonomic principles, naturally conforming to the natural curve of the instep, providing all-around comfortable support and ensuring stability and fit during foot movement. The tongue uses a highly elastic and breathable loop-knit material, which possesses excellent elasticity and breathability. Its elasticity allows the tongue to deform with foot movement, reducing the feeling of restriction and ensuring foot flexibility and freedom. Simultaneously, its high breathability ensures dryness and comfort, effectively wicking away moisture even during prolonged, high-intensity exercise, preventing stuffiness from affecting athlete performance and comfort.

[0046] A type of shoe, such as Fig. 3 As shown, the shoe includes an upper 1, which includes shoelaces 3 and the aforementioned tongue. The inner side of the upper 1 has 3 inner shoelace holes, and the outer side has 3 outer shoelace holes. The inner and outer sections of the shoelaces 3 intersect and pass through the corresponding perforated bands 4 of the tongue body 2, connecting to the outer and inner shoelace holes respectively. This tongue design follows ergonomic principles, conforming to the arch of the foot, and uses highly elastic and breathable flyknit yarn to enhance wearing comfort. The perforated bands 4 are formed directly during the weaving process to prevent tongue misalignment, while also optimizing the production process and improving efficiency. The bulge 5 and cushioning section 6 effectively avoid pressure on the instep, reducing the risk of sports injuries.

[0047] The foregoing description of the specifications and embodiments is intended to explain the scope of protection of this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Modifications, equivalent substitutions, or other improvements to the embodiments of this utility model or a portion thereof that can be obtained by those skilled in the art through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation, based on the teachings of this utility model or the foregoing embodiments, should all be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
