Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of shoe sole technology, specifically relating to a sports shoe with an integrated sole. Background Technology
[0002] Athletic shoes are shoes designed and manufactured specifically for people participating in sports or travel. Unlike ordinary leather or rubber shoes, the soles of athletic shoes are generally soft and elastic, providing cushioning. They enhance elasticity during exercise and some even help prevent ankle injuries. Therefore, athletic shoes are essential for most sports activities, especially high-intensity physical activities such as basketball and running.
[0003] When engaging in high-intensity exercise, turning maneuvers are often required, which necessitates shoes with good stability; otherwise, it can lead to poor athletic performance or even injury.
[0004] Most traditional shoe soles on the market currently improve stability by increasing the contact area between the forefoot outsole and the ground or by enhancing the rigidity of the midsole. However, during strenuous exercise, stability can easily decrease due to excessive deformation or insufficient rigid support. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model discloses a sports shoe with an integrated sole, which mainly solves the problem of insufficient stability of the sole of traditional sports shoes.
[0006] To achieve the aforementioned objective, this utility model provides an integrated sports shoe with a sole, comprising a sole and an upper. The sole has a deformation hole on the side of the forefoot, and a stabilizing structure is provided within the deformation hole. The stabilizing structure includes at least three spheres for providing elastic support.
[0007] Preferably, the sphere includes a first sphere, a second sphere, and a third sphere, and the top and bottom of the sphere are fixedly connected to the sole of the shoe.
[0008] Preferably, the sphere has a cavity inside, the sphere is distributed in a fan shape, and adjacent sphere cavities are connected by channels.
[0009] Preferably, the top wall thickness of the sphere is 0.5 mm, and the bottom wall thickness of the sphere is 1.2 mm.
[0010] Preferably, a reinforcing rib is provided between the two spheres, and the reinforcing rib is made of silicone.
[0011] Preferably, the height of the reinforcing rib is 0.3 mm.
[0012] Preferably, in the spheres, the diameter of the sphere closest to the outer side of the arch is smaller than the diameter of the sphere closest to the inner side.
[0013] Preferably, the upper is a one-piece sock-like upper.
[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the shoe sole is provided with a wear-resistant layer.
[0015] The technical solution provided by this utility model has at least the following technical effects:
[0016] This invention utilizes deformation holes in the sole of the shoe, along with arc-shaped distributed silicone spheres and interconnected microchannels. When the foot tilts to one side, the spheres in the pressure area transfer gas to the opposite side, creating a height difference and counter-thrust, thus achieving real-time pressure redistribution. This dynamic response speed can reach 0.2 seconds, far faster than the static support methods of traditional EVA materials or rigid TPU support sheets. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a sports shoe with an integrated sole 2, including a sole 2 and an upper 1. The sole 2 has a deformation hole 3 on the side of the forefoot. A stabilizing structure is provided in the deformation hole 3. The stabilizing structure includes at least three spheres for providing elastic support.
[0025] In this embodiment, the spheres include a first sphere 4, a second sphere 5, and a third sphere 6. The number of spheres may also be five or more, and is not limited to this.
[0026] The top and bottom of the sphere are fixedly connected to the sole 2. The sphere has a cavity inside and is distributed in a fan shape. Adjacent sphere cavities are connected by channels. The top wall thickness of the sphere is 0.5 mm, and the bottom wall thickness of the sphere is 1.2 mm. A reinforcing rib 7 is provided between the two spheres.

[0027] [One-piece sports shoe with sole 2 according to Embodiment 2 of this utility model]
[0028] For the sake of brevity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 described above will be described.
[0029] In this embodiment, the sphere is a solid structure with a multi-layer structure inside. The outer layer is made of TPU material and the inner layer is made of silicone material. Energy storage in the inner layer is triggered by the deformation of the outer layer when squeezed.
[0030] [One-piece sports shoe with sole 2 according to embodiment 3 of this utility model]
[0031] For the sake of brevity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 described above will be described.
[0032] In this embodiment, the three spheres have different functions and are made of different materials, as detailed below:
[0033] First sphere (inhibits inward turning): High-hardness material (TPU, Shore hardness 80A);
[0034] Second sphere (to inhibit outward turning): Medium hardness material (silicone, Shore A hardness 50A);
[0035] The third sphere (stabilizing support): made of super-elastic material (memory foam).
[0036] Dynamic restoring force is achieved by utilizing the difference in elastic modulus of different spheres;
[0037] The pressure is dispersed and a counter-thrust is generated by the contact compression effect between the spheres.
[0038] This utility model has at least the following advantages:
[0039] Dynamic pressure distribution mechanism: Through arc-shaped distributed silicone spheres and interconnected microchannels, when the foot tilts to the side, the spheres in the pressure area transfer gas to the opposite side, forming a height difference and a counter-thrust (e.g., when tilting outward, the gas on the outside flows to the sphere on the inside), achieving real-time pressure redistribution. This dynamic response speed can reach 0.2 seconds, far faster than the static support method of traditional EVA materials or rigid TPU support sheets.
[0040] The sphere layout is designed to match the terrain: the outer sphere has a larger diameter of 18mm and a thinner wall thickness of 0.8mm, optimized for scenarios with high lateral forces, such as sudden stops in basketball; the inner sphere focuses on shock absorption and balance.
[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
