Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wearable technology, and in particular to an essential oil slow-release shoe. Background Technology

[0002] Shoes are an essential item in people's daily lives. Choosing the right shoes can not only correct walking posture but also provide certain health benefits through massage to the extremities. However, most shoes on the market only have the single function of wearing, and after prolonged wear, they are prone to harboring bacteria, leading to bacterial and fungal skin diseases such as athlete's foot. Therefore, existing technologies can treat shoes by placing sachets, sprays, or essential oils with aromatic and antibacterial effects to inhibit bacteria and deodorize them.

[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN115778052A provides an aromatic and antibacterial shoe, which includes a sole, a midsole, and an upper.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used herein should have the ordinary meaning understood by those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains. The terms "comprising" and similar expressions used herein mean that the element or object preceding the word covers the element or object listed following the word and its equivalents, but does not exclude other elements or objects.

[0022] See Figure 1 This utility model provides an essential oil-releasing shoe, including a sole 1, a midsole 2, and an upper 3. The sole 1 and the upper 3 are sewn together with thread. The upper 3 is located on the outside of the midsole 2 and forms a shoe cavity 4 with the midsole 2. When wearing the shoe, the foot is placed inside the shoe cavity 4 and stepped on the midsole 2 and sole 1. The upper 3 provides protection, warmth, and decoration for the foot. In fact, by selecting different specifications of sole 1 and upper 3, the essential oil-releasing shoe can be used as a type of casual shoe, sports shoe, etc.

[0023] In fact, a storage sac 5 for storing essential oils is provided in the upper 3. Specifically, the storage sac 5 can be completely enclosed inside the upper 3 or completely exposed outside the upper 3. However, considering the aesthetics of the upper 3 and the overall protection of the storage sac 5, the storage sac 5 can also be embedded inside the upper 3, with part of the storage sac 5 exposed on the outside. This not only serves a decorative purpose for the upper 3 but also protects the storage sac 5.

[0024] Specifically, the storage pouch 5 can be made of elastic, transparent rubber, allowing the wearer to visually observe the remaining essential oil content inside. Additionally, an indicator mark can be placed on the exposed side of the storage pouch 5 to indicate the remaining essential oil content and the estimated number of days it can be used.

[0025] Specifically, a guide body 6 is provided at the seam where the upper 3 and the midsole 2 are sewn together, and one end of the guide body 6 is located inside the storage sac 5. Thus, the guide body 6 can guide the essential oil stored in the storage sac 5 out through penetration and capillary action. In addition, the other end of the guide body 6 is located at the midsole 2, which allows the essential oil in the storage sac 5 to be conducted into the shoe cavity 4, thereby aromatically treating the shoe cavity 4 and the human foot.

[0026] Specifically, the portion of the guide body 6 located inside the storage pouch 5 is sewn inside the shoe upper 3, thereby protecting the guide body 6. In addition, an oil-proof membrane is provided around the guide body 6 on the shoe upper 3 to prevent the guide body 6 from conducting essential oil to the shoe upper 3, thus avoiding contamination of the shoe upper 3 and waste of essential oil.

[0027] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The guide body 6 includes a guide portion 61 and a guide portion 62 that abut against each other. One end of the guide portion 61 is inserted into the storage pouch 5 and comes into contact with the essential oil. The other end of the guide portion 61 passes through the seam between the sole 1 and the midsole 2 and is located at the top of the midsole 2. The insertion direction of the guide portion 61 is located on the middle side of the midsole 2. The guide portion 62 is fitted along the length of the midsole 2 and is attached to the surface of the midsole 2. The connection between the guide portion 61 and the guide portion 62 is located in the middle of the guide portion 62.

[0028] In fact, the essential oil slow-release shoe provided by this utility model also includes a slow-release insole 7 stacked on top of the midsole 2, so that the bottom of the slow-release insole 7 fits against the guide body 6, so that the essential oil entering with the guide body 6 can penetrate into the sole 1 component. In addition, the slow-release insole 7 can greatly improve the comfort of people when wearing it, and play a good cushioning and protection role for the human foot.

[0029] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 4The bottom of the slow-release insole 7 is provided with a receiving groove 8 for accommodating the guide body 6, and the guide body 6 and the receiving groove 8 are engaged with each other. Thus, when the slow-release insole 7 is placed in the shoe cavity 4, the guide body 6 and the receiving groove 8 cooperate with each other, which can effectively improve the positional stability of the slow-release insole 7, thereby preventing the slow-release insole 7 from shifting when people move after wearing it.

[0030] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the receiving groove 8 at the bottom of the slow-release insole 7 is a notched circular shape, which can further engage the guide 6. In fact, the shape of the receiving groove 8 can be related to the shape of the guide 6 in the midsole 2, as long as it can engage the guide 6.

[0031] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The slow-release insole 7 has an insertion part 9 on the inner wall of the receiving groove 8. When the slow-release insole 7 is placed in the midsole 2 of the shoe cavity 4, the insertion part 9 can penetrate into the guide body 6, thereby further improving the positional stability of the slow-release insole 7 in the midsole 2. In addition, the insertion part 9 can also increase the contact area between the slow-release insole 7 and the guide body 6, which is conducive to the transfer of essential oil on the guide body 6 into the slow-release insole 7.

[0032] In fact, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The slow-release insole 7 includes a slow-release layer 71 and an isolation layer 72 stacked together. The bottom of the slow-release layer 71 is in contact with the midsole 2 and the guide body 6, while the isolation layer 72 is located inside the shoe cavity 4 and is used for stepping and contact by the human foot. Specifically, a receiving groove 8 is formed at the bottom of the slow-release layer 71, and the slow-release layer 71 is in contact with at least a portion of the guide body 6 through the side wall located at the receiving groove 8.

[0033] In fact, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The slow-release layer 71 has a container unit 10 for temporarily storing essential oils, and an oleophobic layer 11 is provided in the container unit 10. When essential oils are transported, they will be enriched and temporarily stored in the container unit 10 when they enter the slow-release layer 71. The oleophobic layer 11 can improve the retention of essential oils in the container unit 10, thereby improving the slow-release effect of essential oils.

[0034] In some embodiments, the receiving unit 10 includes multiple sets of receiving hole groups 101, and each set of receiving hole groups 101 is composed of multiple receiving hole bodies 1011 located on the same horizontal plane, and the multiple sets of receiving hole groups 101 are arranged in a staggered manner in the vertical direction within the slow-release layer 71. In fact, the oleophobic layer 11 is formed on the inner wall of the lower half of the slow-release layer 71 located on the receiving hole body 1011.

[0035] In fact, when the essential oil is delivered to the sustained-release layer 71 by the guide body 6, the essential oil diffuses in the sustained-release layer 71 and spreads towards the isolation layer 72. When the essential oil enters the receiving hole body 1011, it will be temporarily stored in the receiving hole body 1011. The setting of the oleophobic layer 11 can slow down the essential oil from leaving the receiving hole body 1011, thereby improving the sustained-release effect of the essential oil.

[0036] In some embodiments, the volume of the receiving hole body 1011 within the sustained-release layer 71 gradually decreases along the vertical direction from the bottom to the top of the sustained-release layer 71. Furthermore, the number of receiving hole bodies 1011 within each group of receiving units 10 gradually increases along the bottom to the top direction. This facilitates the dispersion and temporary storage of excess essential oil and also allows the essential oil located at the top of the buffer layer to enter the shoe cavity 4 more evenly.

[0037] In some embodiments, the sustained-release layer 71 is provided with a transmission channel 12 between every two receiving hole bodies 1011. The transmission channel 12 is used to homogenize the essential oil, thereby improving the convenience of transferring the essential oil between adjacent receiving hole bodies 1011. In addition, the transmission channel 12 can also serve as a buffer gap, effectively absorbing the pressure generated when people step on it and thereby squeezing or absorbing the essential oil in the sustained-release layer 71.

[0038] In some embodiments, the diameter of the transmission channel 12 along the bottom to top direction of the slow-release layer 71 gradually decreases, which can be combined with the gradually decreasing volume of the receiving hole body 1011. In addition, it can provide more support for the human foot and prevent the slow-release insole 7 from collapsing too much when people step on it.

[0039] In some embodiments, the sustained-release layer 71 has a uniform liquid channel 13 on the side of the transmission channel 12, and the two ends of the uniform liquid channel 13 are respectively connected to two adjacent receiving hole bodies 1011 in the horizontal direction, thereby promoting the homogenization efficiency of the essential oil.

[0040] Furthermore, a homogenizing element 14 is provided within the homogenizing channel 13 in the sustained-release layer 71. The homogenizing element 14 can homogenize the essential oil in the two adjacent receiving hole bodies 1011 through capillary action, and also facilitates the entry of essential oil located inside the sustained-release layer 71 into the receiving hole body 1011. Specifically, the connection between the homogenizing channel 13 and the receiving hole body 1011 is located at 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the bottom of the receiving hole body 1011.

[0041] In some embodiments, the sustained-release insole 7 further includes an antibacterial layer 73 disposed between the sustained-release layer 71 and the isolation layer 72. Specifically, the antibacterial layer 73 is a loofah material loaded with silver nanoparticles. Thus, the provision of the antibacterial layer 73 can improve the antibacterial effect inside the shoe cavity 4. In addition, it can also perform antibacterial treatment on the essential oil to be introduced into the shoe cavity 4, thereby preventing the essential oil from carrying bacteria into the shoe cavity 4.

[0042] In some embodiments, the sustained-release layer 71 has multiple suction channels 15 on the side near the antibacterial layer 73, and the multiple suction channels 15 are arrayed on the top of the sustained-release layer 71. The antibacterial layer 73 has suction guides 16 formed on it to cooperate with the suction channels 15, and the suction guides 16 are located inside the suction channels 15. This can effectively improve the bonding stability between the sustained-release layer 71 and the antibacterial layer 73, and also increase the contact area, which is conducive to the essential oil entering the antibacterial layer 73.

[0043] In some embodiments, the isolation layer 72 has multiple outlet holes 17 extending through it, and the outlet holes 17 can be arranged in an array on the isolation layer 72, or distributed along the acupoints on the sole of the foot. An outlet member 18 is formed on the top of the antibacterial layer 73 to cooperate with the outlet holes 17. The outlet member 18 being located within the outlet hole 17 facilitates the delivery of essential oil through the isolation layer 72 to the shoe cavity 4. In fact, the outlet member 18 and the suction member 16 on the antibacterial layer 73 are vertically offset, which helps to improve the antibacterial treatment effect of the antibacterial layer 73 on the essential oil.

[0044] Although the embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to these embodiments. However, it should be understood that such modifications and variations fall within the scope and spirit of this utility model as described in the claims. Moreover, the utility model described herein may have other embodiments and can be implemented or realized in various ways.
