Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of children's footwear technology and relates to a children's shoe. Background Technology
[0002] The shoe tongue, generally speaking, refers to the part between the bottom of the shoelaces and the top of the foot. It's called the shoe tongue because its shape somewhat resembles a tongue. Usually, the left and right sides of the shoe tongue are connected to the left and right sides of the shoe upper by stitching or shoelaces. However, when children wear shoes, shoelaces are often used because children are less strong and less adept at tying them.
[0003] Existing shoelaces typically use the BOA lacing system for quick tightening. This system uses steel wire instead of traditional shoelaces, and the tightness is adjusted by a round knob. To loosen the wire, the knob needs to be lifted upwards. Usually, the knob is small and does not exceed the width of the tongue, making it inconvenient to apply force and causing difficulty for children to put on and take off their shoes. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a children's shoe. The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: how to solve the problem of inconvenience in putting on and taking off existing children's shoes.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A children's shoe includes an upper with a tongue opening along its length. The shoe further includes a U-shaped limiting strap and a heel strap. Hinges are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the heel of the upper. The two ends of the limiting strap are fixedly connected to the corresponding hinges. The limiting strap is located above the upper and covers the tongue opening. Two limiting arms are also fixedly connected to the upper. The shoe further includes a fork arm with one end abutting against the inner wall of the limiting arm. One end of the hinges is inserted into the fork arm's insertion port. Limiting teeth are provided on the outer wall of the fork arm. The two ends of the heel strap have adjusting teeth that can be positioned on and abut against the limiting teeth.
[0007] For easy on and off, hinge shafts are installed on both sides of the heel area of the shoe upper. The ends of the limiting strap are fixed to the corresponding hinge shafts. When needing to put on or take off the shoes, pressing down on the heel strap releases the adjusting teeth of the heel strap from the limiting teeth. At this point, the limiting strap is no longer restrained by the heel strap. To make it easier to remove the shoes, the limiting strap can be pulled forward. The limiting strap drives the hinge shafts to rotate. The hinge shafts are inserted into the socket of the fork arm, causing the fork arm to swing. The fork arm can then move the limiting teeth downwards, thus achieving the desired on / off action. The shoe tongue opening is designed to allow children's feet to easily slip into the shoe through the opening on the upper and the opening on the tongue, enabling quick on and off. Once on, simply release the support strap and heel strap. The support strap moves downwards under gravity, and the heel strap engages with the support strap via adjustable teeth, thus positioning the support strap and facilitating quick on and off of the shoe. Because the support strap is U-shaped, it is easier to grip and adjust, making it more convenient for children to use and further enhancing the ease of putting on and taking off the shoe.
[0008] In the aforementioned children's shoes, the width of the middle part of the limiting band is greater than the width of both ends. The middle part of the limiting band is located in the middle of the shoe tongue opening, and the front edge of the middle part of the limiting band and the opening wall of the shoe tongue opening form a ventilation opening.
[0009] By making the middle width of the restraint strap larger, the restraint strap can act as a shoe tongue, thus securing the shoe stably on the child's instep. The ventilation holes make it comfortable and cool for children to wear in summer, without affecting the restraint strap's function.
[0010] In the aforementioned children's shoes, the limiting teeth are set on the rear side wall of the fork arm, and a limiting rod that is hinged to the heel strap and tilted backward is provided. The adjusting teeth are set on the upper end of the limiting rod and can be inserted into the limiting teeth.
[0011] The limiting rod is designed to ensure that the limiting teeth can be stably engaged with the limiting teeth, so that the shoes will not come off when the child puts them on, thus ensuring the stability of the children's shoes after they are put on.
[0012] In the aforementioned children's shoes, the lower end of the fork arm is connected to an abutment shaft, one end of which abuts against the inner wall of the limiting arm. When the adjusting tooth engages with the limiting tooth, the abutment shaft is located in front of the hinge shaft.
[0013] The abutment shaft enhances the stability of the fork arm during swinging. Furthermore, when the adjusting tooth and the limiting tooth engage, the abutment shaft is located in front of the hinge shaft, ensuring that the fork arm always tends to move backward. This guarantees a more stable engagement between the adjusting tooth and the limiting tooth.
[0014] In the aforementioned children's shoes, a receiving cavity is provided at one end of the limiting arm near the hinge shaft, and both the hinge shaft and the fork arm are located within the receiving cavity.
[0015] The inclusion cavity design avoids exposing the hinge shaft and fork arm, improving the stability of children's shoes.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: When it is necessary to put on or take off the shoes, press down on the heel strap to release the locking of the adjusting teeth and the limiting teeth of the heel strap. At this time, the limiting strap is not limited by the heel strap. In order to facilitate the removal of the shoes, the limiting strap can be pulled forward. The limiting strap drives the hinge shaft to rotate. The hinge shaft is inserted into the insertion port of the fork arm, which drives the fork arm to swing. The fork arm can drive the limiting teeth to move downward, thereby opening up the shoe tongue, making it easier for children's feet to enter the children's shoes from the shoe opening and the shoe tongue opening, thus achieving quick putting on.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, this children's shoe includes an upper 1, and the upper 1 has a tongue opening 11 that extends along the length of the upper 1.
[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the children's shoes also include a U-shaped limiting strap 2 and a heel strap 3. The left and right sides of the heel of the upper 1 are rotatably connected to a hinge shaft 12. The two ends of the limiting strap 2 are fixedly connected to the corresponding hinge shaft 12. The limiting strap 2 is located above the upper 1 and covers the tongue opening 11. Two limiting arms 4 are also fixedly connected to the upper 1. The children's shoes also include a fork arm 5 with one end abutting against the inner side wall of the limiting arm 4. One end of the hinge shaft 12 is inserted into the insertion port 51 of the fork arm 5. A limiting tooth 52 is provided on the outer side wall of the fork arm 5. The two ends of the heel strap 3 have adjusting teeth 31 that can be located on the limiting tooth 52 and abut against the limiting tooth 52.
[0024] To facilitate putting on and taking off the shoes, hinge shafts 12 are provided on both sides of the heel of the upper 1. The two ends of the limiting strap 2 are fixed to the corresponding hinge shafts 12. When putting on or taking off the shoes, the heel strap 3 is pressed down, which releases the locking teeth 52 of the adjusting teeth 31 of the heel strap 3. At this time, the limiting strap 2 is not limited by the heel strap 3. To facilitate taking off the shoes, the limiting strap 2 can be pulled forward. The limiting strap 2 drives the hinge shafts 12 to rotate. The hinge shafts 12 are inserted into the insertion port 51 of the fork arm 5, causing the fork arm 5 to swing. The fork arm 5 can drive the limiting teeth 52 to move downward. This design allows the shoe tongue opening 11 to be exposed, making it easier for children to put their feet into the shoe through the shoe opening 1 and the shoe tongue opening 11, enabling quick wearing. After wearing, simply release the limiting strap 2 and the heel strap 3. The limiting strap 2 moves downward under the action of gravity, and the heel strap 3 is also positioned by the adjusting teeth 31 on the limiting teeth 52, thus enabling quick wearing of the children's shoes. Since the limiting strap is U-shaped, it is more convenient to grip and adjust, making it easier for children to use and further improving the convenience of putting on and taking off the shoes.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the width of the middle part of the limiting band 2 is greater than the width of both ends. The middle part of the limiting band 2 is located in the middle of the shoe tongue opening 11. The front edge of the middle part of the limiting band 2 and the opening wall of the shoe tongue opening 11 enclose each other to form a ventilation opening 6.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the limiting tooth 52 is set on the rear side wall of the fork arm 5, and the rear heel belt 3 is hinged to a limiting rod 32 that is inclined and rearward. The adjusting tooth 31 is set on the upper end of the limiting rod 32. The adjusting tooth 31 can be inserted into the limiting tooth 52. The lower end of the fork arm 5 is connected to the abutment shaft 53. One end of the abutment shaft 53 abuts against the inner wall of the limiting arm 4. When the adjusting tooth 31 is engaged with the limiting tooth 52, the abutment shaft 53 is located in front of the hinge shaft 12.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the end of the limiting arm 4 near the hinge shaft 12 has a receiving cavity 41, and both the hinge shaft 12 and the fork arm 5 are located in the receiving cavity 41.
[0028] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
