Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of slipper technology, specifically relating to a slipper that automatically emits light at night to prevent falls. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, the elderly, pregnant women, and some people with mobility impairments often cannot accurately find their slippers when getting up at night due to dim lighting and poor vision, or they may fall because they do not put on their slippers correctly. Especially at night when the main lighting in the room is not turned on, obstacles on the ground are not easily visible, which can easily lead to accidental injuries.

[0003] While some slippers on the market use soft soles or non-slip uppers to improve safety, most lack visual assistance and intelligent sensing technology. They cannot provide active lighting guidance when the user gets up, and they also lack anti-slip positioning design for the feet. As a result, they still have the following shortcomings: First, they lack the function of providing visual assistance in low-light environments at night, which makes users at risk of misjudging when finding the shoes or putting them on. Second, they lack an effective restraint structure for forward, backward, and lateral slippage of the feet, resulting in instability and poor safety after wearing them. Third, they do not integrate automatic sensor lighting, so users still face the potential risk of falling due to insufficient light during activities. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a night-light-emitting anti-fall slipper. It can realize the combination of night light recognition, anti-slip structure and intelligent lighting control function to improve the accuracy of wearing at night and the safety of walking, and reduce the incidence of night-time fall accidents.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A type of slipper that automatically glows at night to prevent falls includes a sole and an upper. The upper surface of the sole is detachably fixed with an insole, which includes a rubber pad. The upper surface of the rubber pad is fixed with anti-slip strips evenly arranged front and back. The anti-slip strips have an anti-slip groove in the middle. The anti-slip strips are made of glow-in-the-dark rubber.

[0007] The front of the sole is equipped with a lighting device that can be switched on and off based on human body sensors.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper surface of the shoe is equipped with a glow-in-the-dark strip, the position of which is tilted to one side depending on whether it is the left or right foot.

[0009] Furthermore, the rubber pad has a through-hole near the front end, and the lower surface of the rubber pad is fixed with evenly distributed insertion posts, with annular retaining ribs on the outer side of the insertion posts.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper surface of the sole is provided with an installation groove for installing the rubber pad, and the bottom inner side of the installation groove is provided with a insertion hole for inserting and fixing the plug.

[0011] Furthermore, the lighting device includes a light-transmitting cover fixed to the front end of the shoe sole, a lighting element, a human body sensor switch, and a storage battery. The bottom surface of the mounting groove near the front end has a storage slot for placing the lighting element and the storage battery. The lighting end of the lighting element extends through the front side wall of the storage slot to the position of the light-transmitting cover. A cover for fixing the human body sensor switch is installed at the port of the storage slot.

[0012] Furthermore, the lighting component includes a mounting plate, on the front side of which multiple connecting tubes are fixed, and LED beads are fixed at the front end of the connecting tubes.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention solves the problem of difficulty in accurately identifying and putting on slippers at night due to insufficient ambient light by setting evenly arranged luminous anti-slip strips on the upper surface of the insole and creating anti-slip grooves on the strips. The luminous anti-slip strips emit light continuously at night, clearly indicating the position and orientation of the slippers, improving the accuracy of putting on the shoes; the anti-slip strips and anti-slip grooves work together to enhance the front-to-back and lateral stability of the foot in the slippers, preventing the user's feet from slipping and causing instability, thereby improving the safety of wearing the shoes.

[0015] By incorporating a human-sensing lighting device at the front of the sole, and integrating a light-transmitting cover, LED beads, a battery, and a sensor switch into the device, the problem of users being unable to identify obstacles on the ground due to insufficient lighting when walking at night is solved. The lighting device automatically turns on upon sensing a human infrared signal, providing illumination to the visible area ahead, thereby effectively reducing the risk of falls at night and improving the safety of nighttime activities.

[0016] By incorporating glow-in-the-dark strips on the shoe upper, combined with a glow-in-the-dark, non-slip structure on the insole, the problem of users having difficulty distinguishing the left or right foot or the direction of the shoe's outline when getting up at night is solved. The glow-in-the-dark strips extend along a specific side of the shoe upper and are integrated with the shoe structure, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also provides clear visual guidance, making it easier for users to quickly identify the position of their left and right shoes, improving wearing efficiency, and further reducing the risk of falls caused by mis-wearing.

[0017] By fixing the rubber pad to the sole using a snap-fit ​​method, with the snap-fit ​​having a locking rib and a mounting groove, the problem of traditional slipper insoles being easy to slip and having an unreliable structure is solved. Through the reasonable design of the clearance holes and storage slots, installation space is reserved for internal lighting components while ensuring wearing comfort and structural safety, effectively improving the stability and service life of the entire shoe.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a night-illuminating anti-fall slipper includes a sole 1 and an upper 3. A detachable insole 2 is fixed to the upper surface of the sole 1. The insole 2 includes a rubber pad 22, and anti-slip strips 23 evenly arranged front and back are fixed to the upper surface of the rubber pad 22. An anti-slip groove 24 is formed in the middle of the anti-slip strips 23. The anti-slip strips 23 are made of luminescent rubber. The anti-slip strips 23 utilize luminescent material to continuously emit light in low-light conditions, enabling users to quickly locate the slippers and avoid falls caused by misplacement. The surface structure of the anti-slip strips 23, in conjunction with the anti-slip groove 24, forms a longitudinal and lateral limiting structure for the foot, enhancing foot stability and improving nighttime walking safety during wear. A lighting device is installed at the front end of the sole 1. This device can be controlled by a human body sensor. Combined with infrared human body sensing technology, the lighting device automatically illuminates the lighting component 12 after the user gets up and puts on the slippers, providing intelligent auxiliary lighting for the walking route and preventing falls caused by collisions with obstacles at night.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the upper surface of the shoe upper 3 is provided with a luminous strip 4, the position of which is tilted to one side depending on whether it is the left or right foot; the luminous strip 4 is made of flexible luminous material, which has the ability to store light for a long time and emit light continuously, and can visually mark the outline of the shoe upper in the low light conditions, so that the user can quickly identify the left and right shoe positions after getting up from the bedside, avoiding wearing the wrong shoes or being unstable due to improper posture; the luminous strip 4, by integrating with the structure of the shoe upper 3, achieves the visual guidance function without affecting the wearing comfort, thereby working with the luminous anti-slip strip 23 on the insole 2 to improve the accuracy and safety of wearing at night.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the rubber pad 22 has a through-hole near the front end, and the lower surface of the rubber pad 22 is fixed with evenly distributed insertion posts 25. The outer side of the insertion posts 25 is provided with annular retaining ribs. The clearance hole is designed to provide structural space for the internal components of the lighting device and to avoid electrical components causing protrusion interference to the foot contact area. The insertion posts 25 serve as structural components connecting the rubber pad 22 and the sole 1. The annular retaining ribs on the insertion posts 25 can engage with the insertion holes 17 in the mounting groove 18 to form a stable fit, preventing the insole from shifting or loosening during use. The engaging structure of the rubber pad 22 improves the overall assembly firmness of the shoe and provides convenience for subsequent maintenance, replacement and other operations.

[0030] like Figure 4As shown, the upper surface of the sole 1 has an installation groove 18 for installing the rubber pad 22, and the inner bottom surface of the installation groove 18 has a hole 17 for inserting and fixing the plug 25. The installation groove 18 provides accurate positioning and installation space for the rubber pad 22. Its inner side cooperates with the retaining rib of the plug 25 to ensure that the insole is stably fixed on the sole 1, preventing the insole from slipping due to foot friction and causing safety hazards. The holes 17 are precisely distributed to match the arrangement of the plugs 25, so as to achieve uniform force and improve the bonding strength between the insole 2 and the sole 1, thereby improving the overall stability and service life when worn.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the lighting device includes a light-transmitting cover 11 fixed to the front end of the sole 1, an illumination element 12, a human body sensor switch 14, and a battery 16. A storage slot 15 is provided on the bottom surface of the mounting groove 18 near the front end to house the illumination element 12 and the battery 16. The illumination end of the illumination element 12 extends through the front side wall of the storage slot 15 to the position of the light-transmitting cover 11. A cover 13 for fixing the human body sensor switch 14 is installed at the port of the storage slot 15. The light-transmitting cover 11 is made of transparent polycarbonate material to protect the illumination element 12 and evenly diffuse the light emitted by the LED beads 121. The lighting effect is improved; the lighting component 12 is composed of multiple LED beads 121, which are fixedly assembled with the fixing plate 123 through the connecting tube 122, and has high brightness and low power consumption lighting performance; the battery 16 is a lithium battery or polymer battery, which is used to power the lighting system and has the characteristics of fast charging and long service life; the human body induction switch 14 can identify infrared heat sources and control the on and off of LED beads 121 to avoid obstacle collision problems due to insufficient light; the cover 13 protects the induction switch and plays the role of circuit encapsulation, improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the overall device.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the lighting component 12 includes a fixing plate 123. Multiple connecting tubes 122 are fixed to the front side of the fixing plate 123, and LED beads 121 are fixed to the front end of the connecting tubes 122. The fixing plate 123 achieves overall support and fixation of the lighting component 12 by fitting it into the structure of the shoe sole 1. The connecting tubes 122 are dual-function components of electrical connection and light source support. The LED beads 121 evenly distributed at the front end can provide a sufficiently bright lighting area in front or to the sides after being lit at night. Combined with the light-transmitting cover 11 to diffuse the illumination range, it allows users to clearly identify the path in front in low light environment, thereby effectively avoiding the occurrence of falls or trips.

[0033] Example 2:

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2In this embodiment, an automatically glowing anti-fall slipper includes a sole 1, an insole 2, and an upper 3. The insole 2 is a detachable structure made of a soft silicone and rubber composite material. Anti-slip strips 23 are fixedly mounted on the insole 2, evenly distributed front and back, and made of a rubber matrix coated with rare-earth luminescent material. A semi-circular anti-slip groove 24 is provided in the center of the anti-slip strip 23, integrally molded onto the surface of the anti-slip strip using a molding process. After absorbing natural light or indoor light sources during the day, the anti-slip strips 23 can continuously glow at night for 6-8 hours. Their arrangement corresponds to the pressure contact area of ​​the foot, effectively enhancing the user's perception of the slipper's position and direction when getting up at night. The anti-slip groove 24 provides lateral foot restraint, preventing the foot from sliding left and right on the insole during wear.

[0035] Existing ordinary glow-in-the-dark slippers only have a single glow-in-the-dark strip pasted on the edge of the upper, and lack anti-slip grooves. The illumination range is limited, the foot is prone to slipping, and problems such as misalignment and instability occur when wearing them. This embodiment improves the accuracy and safety of wearing slippers at night through an integrated glow-in-the-dark anti-slip design, enhancing both visual appeal and physical stability. The technical effect is significantly superior to traditional structures.

[0036] Example 3:

[0037] See Figure 4 , Figure 5 In this embodiment, an integrated lighting device is set at the front end of the sole 1. The lighting device includes a light-transmitting cover 11, LED beads 121, connecting pipe 122, fixing plate 123, battery 16, human body induction switch 14, and storage slot 15. The LED beads 121 are cold white SMD5050 surface mount type, with an illumination angle of 120 degrees and a lumen value of up to 80 lm, ensuring sufficient close-range lighting at night. The connecting pipe 122 is made of ABS heat-resistant plastic and is embedded in the front end of the fixing plate 123. The human body induction switch 14 is an infrared pyroelectric module with a detection distance of 2 meters and a response time of less than 1 second. The cover 13 seals the sensing circuit structure in the storage slot 15 and uses a sealing ring to prevent dust and water. When the device is activated, the infrared signal emitted by the user's body after putting on the slippers is sensed, automatically triggering the LED beads 121 to light up. The light is evenly scattered through the light-transmitting cover 11 to illuminate the path in front, helping the user avoid obstacles on the ground.

[0038] Traditional anti-fall slippers mostly lack active lighting systems, requiring users to turn on the lights separately, increasing the operational steps and disrupting the sleeping environment. Even those products with switch-controlled LEDs still require manual operation, causing inconvenience. This embodiment utilizes intelligent sensor-activated automatic lighting, truly achieving illumination upon wearing the slippers. It responds quickly, requires no manual intervention, and significantly improves the nighttime user experience and fall prevention capabilities.

[0039] Example 4:

[0040] See Figure 1 In this embodiment, the upper 3 is made of EVA foam material, and a glow-in-the-dark strip 4 is provided on the surface. The glow-in-the-dark strip 4 is injection molded from a flexible rare-earth photoluminescent material and integrally bonded to the upper 3. The glow-in-the-dark strip 4 is offset outward by 15 degrees from the center line of the slipper, and is symmetrically arranged according to the shape of the left and right feet. The glow-in-the-dark strip 4 of the left foot is offset to the left, and the glow-in-the-dark strip 4 of the right foot is offset to the right. After getting up at night, the user only needs to observe the position of the glow-in-the-dark strip 4 to quickly distinguish the left and right foot positions of the shoes, avoiding putting them on backwards or crossing the feet, thereby reducing the loss of body balance caused by wearing the wrong shoes.

[0041] Common glow-in-the-dark slippers only have glow-in-the-dark decorative lines on the sole or edge, without distinguishing the direction of the foot. This makes it difficult to identify the left and right feet in the dark, easily leading to accidental slipping and falls. This embodiment overcomes the problem of traditional single-function glow-in-the-dark slippers by using a directional guiding glow-in-the-dark structure design, improving wearing efficiency and stability, and offering greater practicality.

[0042] Example 5:

[0043] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 In this embodiment, the rubber pad 22 is fixedly connected to the mounting groove 18 on the sole 1 via multiple inserts 25 on its lower surface. The inserts 25 are made of TPR rubber material, and the outer side of the insert has annular retaining ribs to enhance the engagement force with the insertion hole 17. The mounting groove 18 is precisely designed according to the length of the rubber pad 22 and the arrangement of the inserts 25, and the inner edge has a flexible guide slope to assist the inserts 25 in being inserted smoothly. The front end of the mounting groove 18 has a storage groove 15 for installing LED beads 121, a battery 16, and a sensor switch 14. The rubber pad 22 has a through-hole at the front end to accommodate the lighting components, preventing the components from stacking and forming a protrusion on the sole, thus improving wearing comfort.

[0044] Some traditional slippers use a single insole placed on top of the sole, lacking a stable and fixed structure, making them prone to shifting during walking and affecting wearing safety. Additionally, improperly embedded electrical components can cause discomfort. This embodiment achieves secure installation through a combination of inserts and retaining ribs, while also reserving space for component installation within the structure, ensuring the integrity and comfort of the integrated lighting device and improving overall structural stability.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the user gets up at night to put on slippers, based on the anti-slip strip 23 with luminous function set on the insole 2 or the position and outline of the slippers, the user can accurately put on the slippers in the absence of light, thereby avoiding the situation of falling due to failure to put on the slippers accurately or tripping over the slippers.

[0046] The anti-slip strip 23 on the insole 2 increases the friction between the user's foot and the insole 2, preventing the user's foot from sliding back and forth. At the same time, the anti-slip groove 24 on the anti-slip strip 23 limits the user's foot in the left and right directions, thereby preventing the user's foot from sliding in the left and right directions, thus completing the stable protection after the slippers are worn.

[0047] After the user puts on the slippers, the human body sensor switch 14 detects the infrared light of a specific wavelength emitted by the human body and turns on the LED light bead 121 to provide illumination, enabling the user to avoid obstacles and thus protecting the user from falls.

[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
