The magnetic positioning plate is a laser-welded iron fiber braided layer, and a permanent magnet array that cooperates with the magnetic positioning plate is embedded at the bottom of the memory foam.

[0007] Preferably, in order to facilitate the adsorption and connection between the memory foam and the arc-shaped airbag, the permanent magnet array is composed of multiple N52-grade neodymium magnets, which are distributed in a ring inside the memory foam.

[0008] Preferably, in order to inflate and deflate the arc-shaped airbag, the arc-shaped airbag is connected to a miniature air pump, which is embedded in the heel of the shoe sole. The inflation and deflation height of the arc-shaped airbag is controlled by pressing with the thumb.

[0009] Preferably, in order to facilitate the inhibition of bacterial growth, the insole adopts a double-layer composite structure, with the upper layer being a breathable and antibacterial mesh layer and the lower layer being a microporous polyurethane foam layer.

[0010] Preferably, in order for the cycling shoe to have lightweight and high rigidity characteristics, the porous support block is a carbon fiber mesh structure.

[0011] Preferably, to improve slip resistance, the lower surface of the shoe sole is provided with anti-slip blocks arranged in an array.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: by adjusting the arch support component, the micro air pump pressed by the thumb on the heel adjusts the inflation height of the arc-shaped airbag, adapting to different arch curvatures in real time, improving cycling pedaling efficiency and reducing foot fatigue, and facilitating the replacement of memory foam with different hardness or thickness to meet personalized needs.

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0018] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a lightweight rigid cycling shoe, including a sole 1, an upper 6 connected to the sole 1, an insole 2 connected to the sole 1, a perforated support block 3 connected inside the sole 1 and below the insole 2, and a detachable arch support adjustment component 4 provided on the sole 1 to adapt to different arch curvatures in real time, improve cycling pedaling efficiency and reduce foot fatigue. The arch support adjustment component 4 is inserted into the insole 2.

[0019] The arch support adjustment component 4 includes an arc-shaped airbag 401, which is mounted on a porous support block 3. A memory foam 402 is magnetically attached to the arc-shaped airbag 401. The curvature of the arc-shaped airbag 401 matches the curvature of the human foot arch. The arc-shaped airbag 401 is made of TPU material, and a magnetic positioning plate 403 is provided on its surface. The magnetic positioning plate 403 is a laser-welded iron fiber braided layer. A permanent magnet array 404, which cooperates with the magnetic positioning plate 403, is embedded at the bottom of the memory foam 402. The permanent magnet array 404 consists of multiple N52-grade neodymium magnets, arranged in a ring inside the memory foam 402, and quickly attracts the magnetic positioning plate 403, facilitating the replacement of memory foams with different hardness or thickness. 402 Memory foam 402 can be quickly disassembled for cleaning or replacement to meet personalized needs. The arc-shaped airbag 401 is connected to a micro air pump 405, which is embedded in the heel of the sole 1. It uses a piezoelectric ceramic pump and controls the inflation and deflation of the arc-shaped airbag 401 by pressing with the thumb. The insole 2 adopts a double-layer composite structure. The upper layer is a breathable and antibacterial mesh layer, and the lower layer is a microporous polyurethane foam layer. The upper antibacterial mesh layer inhibits bacteria and is breathable, while the lower microporous polyurethane layer provides shock absorption, taking into account both comfort and hygiene. The porous support block 3 is a carbon fiber mesh structure, which ensures structural strength while significantly reducing weight. The rigid carbon fiber structure can efficiently transmit stepping force and avoid energy loss. The lower surface of the sole 1 is equipped with an array of anti-slip blocks 5.

[0020] In use, this invention involves selecting a suitable memory foam 402 for installation. Various memory foams 402 with different hardness and thicknesses are typically provided. The user can pick up the memory foam 402 and observe whether the permanent magnet array 404 at its bottom is intact. Align the bottom of the selected memory foam 402 with the magnetic positioning plate 403 on the arc-shaped airbag 401 and gently place it down. At this time, the permanent magnet array 404 and the magnetic positioning plate 403 will quickly attract each other, achieving precise positioning and a firm connection. The insole 2 adopts a double-layer composite structure. The upper layer is a breathable and antibacterial mesh layer, which can effectively absorb foot sweat, keep the feet dry, and prevent bacterial growth; the lower layer is a microporous polyurethane foam layer, providing... The soft and elastic support allows for inflation and deflation of the micro air pump 405, gradually expanding the arc-shaped airbag 401 and pushing the memory foam 402 upwards until the arch feels adequate support. The arc-shaped airbag 401 adapts to different arch curvatures, ensuring the user's arch always receives just the right amount of support, resulting in smoother and more efficient power delivery. Each pedal stroke converts power more effectively into forward momentum, greatly improving cycling efficiency. The porous support block 3 uses a carbon fiber mesh structure, which is not only lightweight, reducing the overall weight of the shoe, but also provides additional support and cushioning for the sole. Working in conjunction with the arch support adjustment component 4, it further reduces foot fatigue.

[0021] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this invention. Various changes and modifications may be made to this invention without departing from its spirit and scope. All such changes and modifications fall within the scope of this invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
