Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shoe upper technology, specifically a shoe upper and shoe with a perforated design. Background Technology
[0002] In modern footwear manufacturing, the design of the shoe upper not only affects its aesthetic appeal but also directly impacts wearing comfort. Perforated weaving technology, a common weaving technique, is widely used in shoe upper manufacturing to enhance its three-dimensionality and breathability. However, traditional perforated weaving has a narrow spacing, which is visually unappealing and limits breathability. Therefore, further optimizing the perforated weaving structure to improve the performance of the shoe upper is crucial. Based on this, the inventors proposed this solution. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides a shoe upper and shoe with a zipper, which overcomes the shortcomings described in the background art.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0005] A shoe upper with a gathering hole includes an upper layer, an underlayer, and a plurality of first knitted areas on the upper layer and / or a plurality of second knitted areas on the underlayer. The first knitted areas and / or the second knitted areas are provided with gathering holes, and a plurality of slit holes are provided around the gathering holes on the first knitted areas and / or the second knitted areas.
[0006] A preferred technical solution: The number of woven loops between adjacent loop holes in the first woven area of the surface layer and / or the second woven area of the bottom layer is lower than the number of loops in the non-first woven area of the shoe upper. By reducing the number of loops or adjusting the woven density, the plain layer in the area adjacent to the loop hole becomes more compact, thereby widening the hole spacing of the woven loop holes.
[0007] A preferred technical solution: The tufting holes are formed by continuous tufting weaving in the same longitudinal layer, and the number of continuous tufting rows in the same longitudinal layer is not less than 3 rows.
[0008] A preferred technical solution: The slit holes are formed by open needle knitting. The number of knitting loops between adjacent slit holes is lower than the number of loops in the non-first knitting area of the upper layer and / or the number of knitting loops between adjacent slit holes is lower than the number of loops in the non-second knitting area of the lower layer of the upper. The tufting holes are integrated at the bending and deformation points of the upper layer and / or the lower layer. Since the open large hole structure in the tufting holes has a large open hollow area, it indirectly reduces the hardness of the upper, making the upper softer and reducing the discomfort caused by excessive hardness in some areas.
[0009] A preferred technical solution: the coil density of the non-gap hole and slit hole braided area of the first braided area is less than the coil density of the non-first braided area of the upper, and / or the coil density of the non-gap hole and slit hole braided area of the second braided area is less than the coil density of the non-second braided area of the upper.
[0010] A preferred technical solution: the positions of the loop holes in the first braided area of the surface layer and the second braided area of the bottom layer overlap at least partially or do not overlap at all.
[0011] After the upper and sole are joined to form a finished shoe, when a user wears it and walks, the toes bend to a certain extent due to the demands of walking. This causes the upper to bend accordingly. Over time, a crease will appear at the end of the tongue on the upper. If the upper is too stiff or difficult to bend, it can easily cause discomfort. The perforated upper of this invention improves the bending effect of the upper by centrally placing several perforations at this crease, thus preventing creases from forming to some extent.
[0012] A preferred technical solution: The tufting holes are concentrated in the localized breathable areas of the upper and / or bottom layers. By rationally setting the position of the tufting holes on the shoe upper, the breathability of the corresponding localized areas of the shoe upper is improved.
[0013] A preferred technical solution: the width of the condenser hole ranges from 0.5mm to 10mm.
[0014] A preferred technical solution: The width of the tucking holes is in the range of 1.5mm-4mm. At this time, the tucking holes are wide-spaced tucking holes. Since the tucking holes form an open large hole structure on the shoe surface, they can provide a larger ventilation channel for the shoe surface. The gaps around the open large hole structure can help provide more ventilation channels, further increasing the total ventilation area, improving the ventilation effect of the shoe surface, which is conducive to heat dissipation and keeping the feet dry.
[0015] A preferred technical solution: the slit holes are arranged symmetrically or asymmetrically on both sides of the non-vertical direction of the tufting hole.
[0016] A shoe that uses the above-mentioned upper with perforations.
[0017] A method for weaving a perforated shoe upper includes the following steps:
[0018] Select the yarn for weaving the shoe upper, and control the yarn to gradually form the loop holes in the first weaving area of the surface layer and / or the second weaving area of the bottom layer through longitudinal continuous front weaving and back tightness looping and skipped needle weaving. The number of longitudinal continuous looping rows in the same layer is not less than 3 rows, and at least one type of yarn is selected.
[0019] The number of braided loops between adjacent loop holes on the first braided area of the upper layer is less than the number of loops in the non-first braided area of the upper; and / or the number of braided loops between adjacent loop holes on the second braided area of the bottom layer is less than the number of loops in the non-second braided area of the upper.
[0020] And / or the coil density of the non-coil holes and gap holes in the first knitting area is less than the coil density of the non-first knitting area of the shoe upper;
[0021] And / or the loop density of the non-knitting holes and slit holes in the second knitting area is less than the loop density of the non-second knitting area of the upper;
[0022] Control the yarn weaving to connect the upper and lower layers, and continue weaving the upper and lower layers in areas without loop holes and gap holes until a complete shoe upper is formed.
[0023] A preferred technical solution: Select two or more types of yarn, which can be the same type of yarn or different types of yarn.
[0024] A preferred technical solution includes the following steps: After the perforated upper is woven, it undergoes post-processing, which is high-temperature heat setting at 120-160℃.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0026] 1. In this utility model, by setting a wide-spaced gathering hole with a preferred width range of 0.5mm-10mm, the gathering hole forms an open large hole structure on the shoe surface, providing a larger ventilation channel for the shoe surface. The gap holes around the open large hole structure can help provide more ventilation channels, further increasing the total ventilation area and improving the overall ventilation effect of the shoe surface.
[0027] 2. The tucking holes in this invention can be concentrated at the bending and deformation points of the shoe upper, making the shoe upper softer and reducing discomfort caused by excessive stiffness in certain areas.
[0028] 3. The tufted hole upper in this utility model can be designed with tufted holes as needed, and the tufted holes on the surface can be combined to create more diverse patterns to meet the personalized needs of consumers. Attached Figure Description

[0039] Example 1
[0040] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe upper with gathering holes, including an upper layer 1, a bottom layer 2, and a plurality of first knitting areas 11 formed on the upper layer 1 and / or a plurality of second knitting areas 21 formed on the bottom layer 2. Gathering holes 3 are provided on the first knitting areas 11 and / or the second knitting areas 21. The width of the gathering holes 3 ranges from 0.5mm to 10mm. The gathering holes 3 form an open large hole structure on the shoe upper 100. A plurality of gap holes 32 are provided around the gathering holes on the first knitting areas 11 and / or the second knitting areas 21.
[0041] The width of the gathering hole 3 is within the range of 1.5mm-4mm. In this case, the gathering hole 3 appears as a wide-spaced gathering hole 3. Because the gathering hole 3 forms an open, large-hole structure on the shoe upper 100, it provides a larger ventilation channel for the shoe upper 100. The gaps 32 around the open, large-hole structure can further provide more ventilation channels, further increasing the total ventilation area and improving the ventilation effect of the shoe upper 100, which is beneficial for foot heat dissipation and keeping the feet dry. The width of the gathering hole 3 can be selected from edge values and point values within the range of 1.5mm-4mm, such as 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, or 1.6mm, 1.7mm, etc. The larger the value, the larger the lateral width of the gathering hole 3.
[0042] The slit holes 32 can be set around the tufting holes 3, or they can be arranged symmetrically or asymmetrically on both sides of the tufting holes 3 in the non-vertical direction.
[0043] The tufting holes 3 can be provided only in the surface layer 1, only in the bottom layer 2, or in both the surface layer 1 and the bottom layer 2. The tufting holes 3 located in the surface layer 1 can be combined to form a variety of patterns to meet the personalized needs of consumers.
[0044] Example 2
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe upper with perforations. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:
[0046] The number of woven loops between adjacent loop holes 3 on the first woven area 11 of the surface layer 1 and / or the second woven area 21 of the bottom layer is lower than the number of loops in the non-first woven area 11 of the shoe upper. By reducing the number of loops in the first woven area 11 and / or the second woven area 21 or adjusting the weaving density of the first woven area 11 and / or the second woven area 21, the plain weave layer (plain weave structure) between the non-loop holes 3 and the gap holes 32 in this area is made more compact, thereby widening the hole spacing of the woven loop holes.
[0047] Furthermore, the tufting holes 3 are formed by continuous tufting weaving in the same longitudinal layer, and the number of continuous tufting rows in the same longitudinal layer is no less than 3 rows. The more rows there are, the more obvious the wide spacing effect of the tufting holes 3.
[0048] Furthermore, the slit holes 32 are formed by open-needle knitting. The number of knitting loops between adjacent slit holes 32 is lower than the number of loops in the non-first knitting area 11 of the upper layer 1 of the shoe upper 100 and / or the number of knitting loops between adjacent slit holes is lower than the number of loops in the non-second knitting area 21 of the bottom layer 2 of the shoe upper 100. For example, if the number of loops in the upper layer 1 and / or the bottom layer 2 per unit square centimeter is 10, and the number of loops in the first knitting area 11 and the second knitting area 21 per unit square centimeter is 6, the tucking holes 3 and slit holes 32 per unit square centimeter will be pulled outward due to the smaller number of loops, resulting in a larger natural opening of the holes.
[0049] Furthermore, the loop hole 3 is integrated into the bending deformation area 101 of the surface layer 1 and / or the bottom layer 2. Since the open large hole structure in the loop hole 3 has a large open hollow area, it indirectly reduces the hardness of the shoe upper 100, making the shoe upper 100 softer and reducing the discomfort caused by excessive hardness in some areas.
[0050] The positions of the gathering holes 3 and the gap holes 32 in the first woven area 11 of the top layer 1 and the second woven area 21 of the bottom layer 2 can completely overlap to achieve the maximum breathability, or partially overlap, or not overlap at all. For example, the gathering holes 3 of the top layer 1 correspond to the bottom layer 2 which is not the second woven area 21 (similarly, the second woven area 21 of the bottom layer 2 can also correspond to the position of the top layer 1 which is not the first woven area 11).
[0051] Example 3
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a shoe with an upper featuring gathered perforations, as described in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2. The upper 100 is connected to the sole via an adhesive to form the finished shoe. The gathered perforations 3 are concentrated in the localized breathable areas 102 of the upper layer 1 and / or the bottom layer 2, improving the breathability of the corresponding localized areas of the upper 100. These localized breathable areas 102 are commonly located at the toe 103 and the side of the shoe 104, enhancing breathability at the forefoot and sides.
[0053] When the gathering holes 3 of the upper layer 1 and the gathering holes 3 of the bottom layer 2 are in the same position on the upper 100, that is, the gathering holes 3 of the upper and lower layers are interconnected, the breathability of the upper 100 is optimal. If only the upper layer 1 or only the bottom layer 2 has gathering holes 3, the breathability of the corresponding layer with gathering holes 3 is improved, while the breathability of the other layer is generally lower. This gives the overall upper 100 both breathability and a certain degree of warmth. The layer without gathering holes 3 can prevent particles from entering the shoe through the upper 100.
[0054] Example 4
[0055] This embodiment provides a weaving method for a perforated shoe upper, including the following steps:
[0056] Select the yarn for weaving the shoe upper, and control the yarn to gradually form the loop holes 3 in the first weaving area 11 of the surface layer 1 and / or the second weaving area 21 of the bottom layer 2 through longitudinal continuous front weaving and back tightness looping and spaced needle weaving in the loop hole 3. The number of longitudinal continuous looping rows in the same layer is not less than 3 rows, and at least one type of yarn is selected.
[0057] The number of braided loops between adjacent loop holes on the first braided area 11 of the upper layer 1 is lower than the number of loops in the non-first braided area 11 of the upper; and / or the number of braided loops between adjacent loop holes 3 on the second braided area 21 of the bottom layer 2 is lower than the number of loops in the non-second braided area 21 of the upper.
[0058] And / or the coil density of the non-coil holes and slit holes 32 of the first knitting area 11 is less than the coil density of the non-first knitting area of the shoe upper;
[0059] And / or the loop density of the non-knitting hole 3 and the slot hole 32 of the second knitting area 21 is less than the loop density of the non-second knitting area of the shoe upper;
[0060] Control the yarn weaving to connect the upper layer 1 and the lower layer 2, and continue weaving the upper layer 1 and the lower layer 2 in the areas of non-gathering holes 3 and gap holes 32 until a complete shoe upper is formed.
[0061] Furthermore, two or more types of yarn are selected, which can be the same type of yarn or different types of yarn.
[0062] Furthermore, the following steps are also included: After the weaving of the 3-hole upper 100, the post-processing is carried out, and the post-processing method is high-temperature heat setting at 120-160℃.
[0063] The yarn is preferably made of polyester multifilament, nylon multifilament, or other multifilament materials, but it can also be any other yarn that can be used in weaving. Regardless of whether the yarn used to weave the upper 100 contains hot-melt yarn, high-temperature heat setting allows the upper 100 to shrink sufficiently under heat, achieving a suitable upper condition. For uppers 100 using hot-melt yarn, high-temperature treatment melts and bonds the hot-melt yarn into the interior of the upper, thereby increasing the strength of the upper 100.
[0064] The following section uses the example of weaving a shoe upper with yarns A and B to further illustrate the weaving process of the shoe upper. Figure 6 :
[0065] Both yarn A and yarn B are made of high-elastic polyester yarn;
[0066] The first row is knitted with yarn A, using both open and spaced stitches, and some areas are knitted with front knitting and back knitting for tighter knitting.
[0067] The second row is a full stitch knit with B yarn as the base;
[0068] The third row is a combination of A yarn for surface knitting and spaced stitch knitting. The spaced stitch position is offset by 1 stitch from the first row, and the knitting continues at the first row's hanging stitch position for front knitting and back tight knitting.
[0069] The 4th row is a full stitch knit with B yarn as the base;
[0070] Rows 5 through 12 are repeats of rows 1 through 4;
[0071] The longitudinal continuous front knitting and the tight back knitting will form a long hole in the knitting. The knitting with spaced needles on the left and right sides of the long hole in the knitting is to reduce the number of loops in the surface layer, making the surface layer 1 tighter, thereby widening the hole spacing of the knitting hole 3.
[0072] Row 13 is knitted with yarn A as the face stitch;
[0073] Row 14 is a full stitch knit with B yarn as the base;
[0074] Rows 1 to 14 are the smallest cycle units, and rows 15 to 28 are repeats of rows 1 to 14.
[0075] The above-described weaving method enables the manufacture of shoe uppers 100 with unique breathability and aesthetic appeal. Shoe uppers 100 manufactured using this process maintain good breathability while improving structural stability. This process is applicable to various types of shoe uppers 100, including athletic shoes and casual shoes, and has broad application prospects.
[0076] Example 5
[0077] like Figure 5 As shown, the smallest unit of the weaving rule, the tufting hole 3 (which is the unit area of 1 weave row and 3 rows during the weaving process), requires 6 corresponding slot holes 32 around its perimeter, of which there are 15 corresponding ordinary loops. Specifically, the weaving of the tufting hole 3 is the smallest unit of at least 3 rows per weave row; the number of weave rows does not increase, only the number of weave rows increases. For example: 1 weave row and 3 rows, 1 weave row and 4 rows, 1 weave row and 5 rows, and so on.
[0078] It should be noted that the adjacent weaves in the adjacent tufting holes 3 and adjacent gap holes 32 in the instruction manual refer to the same surface layer or the same bottom layer. The adjacent weaves in this article are not described between the surface layer and the bottom layer.
[0079] In the above embodiments, as Figure 1 The marking ring hole 3 corresponds to the attached Figure 6 The knitting actions in the 12th and 25th rows, the gaps 32 formed by the open needle knitting correspond to the attached... Figure 6 The weaving action of the 14th weave and the 1st weave.
[0080] Because the inward tension of the adjacent weaving positions of the loop holes 3 and slit holes 32 in the first weaving area 11 and / or the second weaving area 21 is greater, the two sides of the holes are naturally stretched, resulting in a greater spacing between the holes and a larger opening area.
[0081] Example 6
[0082] The slit holes 32 around the coil hole 3 can be arranged regularly or irregularly on both sides of the coil hole 3. It is only that the shape of the coil hole is regular or irregular. When there are slit holes 32 arranged in the vertical direction of the coil hole 3, the number of them will affect the vertical stretching length of the coil hole 3. However, in actual product applications, the lateral stretching force generated by the arrangement of slit holes 32 on both sides and the ordinary coil is greater than the vertical stretching force, so it does not affect the opening width of the coil hole 3.
[0083] The optimal solution is to have fewer vertical slit holes 32 in the tucking hole 3 than on the sides, or to have no vertical slit holes 32, thus making the opening width and shape of the tucking hole 3 more aesthetically pleasing.
[0084] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and therefore cannot be used to limit the scope of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the present utility model patent and the contents of the specification should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
