Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice skate technology, specifically to an adult soft-surface ice skate. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of winter sports, more and more adults are starting to try ice skating. However, beginners face many challenges. On the one hand, most existing ice skates are not designed with the specific needs of beginners in mind. Traditional ice skates usually have stiff uppers, requiring beginners to exert considerable effort to fit their feet into the skates, increasing the difficulty of putting them on. On the other hand, beginners have poor balance on the ice, making them prone to falls and sprains or injuries to their ankles and knees, posing safety hazards and dampening their enthusiasm for ice skating. Therefore, there is an urgent need for ice skates that can solve the difficulties beginners face in putting on the skates and provide fall protection. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adult soft-surface ice skate to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] In view of the above problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] An adult soft-surface ice skate includes a skate body and an auxiliary mechanism. The skate body includes an upper, a sole adhered to the bottom of the upper, and an ice skate mounted on the bottom of the sole. The back of the upper has an opening, and zipper straps are installed on both sides of the opening. Zipper heads slide on the zipper straps, and a pair of zipper straps are engaged together by the zipper heads. The auxiliary mechanism includes auxiliary wheels rotatably connected to both sides of the ice skate, with one auxiliary wheel higher than the other. The shortest distance between the lower auxiliary wheel and the bottom of the ice skate is 0.5-1.5 cm.
[0006] Furthermore, the shoe upper has a hanging loop at the opening.
[0007] Furthermore, the distance between the auxiliary wheel and the ice skate is 3-4 cm.
[0008] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are that zipper straps are provided on both sides of the opening on the back of the shoe upper, and the opening and closing are achieved by the zipper head engaging, making it easier for beginners to put their feet into the shoe and reducing the difficulty of wearing. The shoe upper opening is equipped with hanging ears, which provide a point of leverage for putting on and taking off the shoes, making the process of putting on and taking off the shoes more effortless and convenient.
[0009] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further scheme are that the ice skates are equipped with training wheels on both sides, with one training wheel higher than the other. The lower training wheel is 0.5-1 cm away from the bottom of the ice skate. When a beginner is unstable on the ice, the training wheel can make contact with the ice first to provide support and help the beginner maintain balance. At the same time, the rotation of the training wheel helps beginners to practice skating, enhances their confidence on the ice, and helps beginners adapt to skating more quickly.
[0010] Furthermore, a connecting rod is rotatably connected to the center of the auxiliary wheel, and a threaded rod is installed at the free end of the connecting rod. The threaded rod passes through the ice skate and is threadedly connected to a nut.
[0011] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, for skilled skaters, the training wheels can be removed to eliminate the friction between them and the ice surface, thereby improving skating speed and maneuverability.
[0012] Furthermore, a strip of fabric is sewn onto the back of the shoe upper, a pair of male buckles are installed on the side of the strip of fabric, and a pair of female buckles are installed on the back of the shoe upper, with the male buckles and the female buckles engaging and connecting.
[0013] The advantage of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the fabric strip is fixed to the shoe upper by using male and female buckles, and the zipper tape and zipper head are covered to prevent the zipper head from slipping down due to external force.
[0014] Furthermore, the inner bottom of the shoe upper is fitted with an insole, the surface of which has anti-slip textures near the ball of the foot and at the heel.
[0015] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are that, when making the insoles, materials with a certain degree of elasticity and comfort are selected, such as composite materials like rubber and sponge. The insoles provide additional cushioning and comfort, reducing the impact on the feet during skating and reducing fatigue. The anti-slip texture increases the friction between the foot and the insole, preventing the foot from sliding inside the shoe, allowing the wearer to better exert force and control balance during exercise, thus improving the safety and stability of skating. Especially for beginners, it can help them focus more on learning skating skills.
[0016] Furthermore, the surface of the shoe upper is connected to adjustment straps near the instep and near the ankle, and the free ends of the adjustment straps are attached to the surface of the shoe upper via Velcro.
[0017] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the adjustable strap on the upper, combined with the Velcro design, can flexibly adjust the tightness of the upper, adapting to different foot shapes and sizes. Whether the user has slender or fuller feet, they can obtain a comfortable and fit wearing experience, further improving the shoe's adaptability to users of different body types.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. This adult soft-surface ice skate has zipper straps on both sides of the opening on the back of the upper. The zipper head is engaged to open and close the skate, making it easy for beginners to put their feet into the skate and reducing the difficulty of putting it on. The upper opening is equipped with hooks, which provide a point of leverage for putting on and taking off the skate, making the process more effortless and convenient.
[0020] 2. This adult soft-surface ice skate has training wheels installed on both sides of the blade, with one training wheel higher than the other. The lower training wheel is 0.5-1.5 cm away from the bottom of the blade. When beginners are unsteady on the ice, the training wheel can make contact with the ice first to provide support and help them maintain their balance. At the same time, the rotation of the training wheel helps beginners to practice skating, enhances their confidence on the ice, and helps them adapt to ice skating more quickly.

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an adult soft-surface ice skate, wherein an insole is installed on the inner sole of the upper 1001. The surface of the insole has anti-slip textures near the ball of the foot and at the heel. The insole is made of materials with a certain degree of elasticity and comfort, such as rubber, sponge, and other composite materials. The insole provides additional cushioning and comfort, reducing the impact on the foot during skating and reducing fatigue. The anti-slip texture increases the friction between the foot and the insole, preventing the foot from sliding inside the shoe, allowing the wearer to better exert force and control balance during exercise, improving the safety and stability of skating, especially for… For beginners, this helps them focus more on learning skating techniques. The upper 1001 has adjustment straps 1004 near the instep and near the ankle. The free ends of the adjustment straps 1004 are attached to the upper 1001 via Velcro.

[0032] Specifically, the working principle of this type of adult soft-surface ice skate is as follows: When using it, the user holds the loop 1005 at the opening of the shoe, inserts their foot into the skate, and then zips up the zipper pull 1008, making the shoe upper 1001 fit snugly against the foot. Then, according to individual comfort, the user adjusts the adjustment straps 1004 at the instep and ankle of the shoe upper 1001, securing them in place with Velcro. This allows the shoe upper 1001 to better wrap the foot, providing a comfortable fit and stable support. When standing on the ice wearing ice skates, the ice skate 1003 contacts the ice surface to achieve gliding. For beginners, who have poor balance, the auxiliary wheels 2002 on both sides of the ice skate 1003 come into play. Since one auxiliary wheel is higher than the other, and the lower auxiliary wheel 2002 is 0.5-1.5 cm away from the bottom of the ice skate 1003, when the user's body tilts slightly and loses balance, the lower auxiliary wheel 2002 will contact the ice surface first, providing an extra support point and preventing the user from falling directly.
