Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slipper technology, specifically to a drainage slipper. Background Technology
[0002] Slippers are a common part of our daily lives. For example, wearing slippers while showering helps prevent slipping and keeps feet from directly contacting the ground, keeping them clean after showering. However, most slippers on the market are one-piece molded, making them prone to leaks. This results in water accumulating on the sole after showering, making it difficult for feet to dry and keeping the soles wet. Wearing slippers without drainage for extended periods can easily cause skin problems on the feet. To address this issue, slippers with drainage holes have appeared on the market. However, these drainage holes are usually a straight-through design, meaning the holes run through the top and bottom of the sole. These slippers don't drain water quickly enough, leaving feet still uncomfortable. Furthermore, these drainage holes are often perpendicular to the horizontal plane, which could allow sharp objects to penetrate from the bottom of the sole through the drainage holes to the top, potentially causing injury to the feet.
[0003] In view of this, the inventors of this case conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned problems, which led to the creation of this case. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a drainage slipper that can promptly drain water from inside the slipper by setting a drainage structure on the sole, preventing water accumulation in the slipper and effectively preventing water backflow.
[0005] The solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is: a drainage slipper, including a sole and an upper. The upper side of the sole is provided with a recessed drainage groove, and the side of the sole is provided with a plurality of drainage holes. The sole is provided with a plurality of drainage channels for connecting the drainage groove to the drainage holes. The drainage channels are arranged to extend downward from the inside to the outside to ensure that water flows out of the sole under the action of gravity.
[0006] Furthermore, in order to drain the water inside the sole, the drainage channel is set along the outline of the sole at the upper edge of the sole, one end of the drainage channel is connected to the drainage channel, and the drainage channel extends in a straight line or in an arc from the drainage channel to the drainage hole.
[0007] Furthermore, to prevent water from accumulating on the sole, the upper side of the sole is provided with a front collection hole located at the big toe, a middle collection hole located at the center of the forefoot, and a rear collection hole located at the heel. The front, middle, and rear collection holes are connected to the drainage hole via drainage channels. The upper side of the sole is also provided with several water collection channels for connecting the drainage channels to the front, middle, or rear collection holes.
[0008] Furthermore, to prevent water backflow, the sole is also equipped with a sealing mechanism for blocking the drainage hole. The sealing mechanism includes a sealing plate for blocking the drainage hole. The sealing plate is installed in the sole and can move up and down to control the opening and closing of the drainage hole. The lower side of the sealing plate is provided with a counterweight for moving the sealing plate downward so as to open the drainage hole when the slipper is lifted.
[0009] Furthermore, to ensure that the drain hole opens when the slipper is lifted and closes when the slipper is lowered, thereby effectively preventing water backflow, the upper side of the counterweight is provided with a horizontally outward protruding limiting flange, and the sole is provided with a movable cavity for the sealing plate and the counterweight to move. The movable cavity includes, from top to bottom, an upper cavity for accommodating the sealing plate, a lower cavity for accommodating the counterweight, and a bottom cavity for the counterweight to move. The shape of the upper cavity is adapted to the shape of the sealing plate, the cross-section of the lower cavity is adapted to the cross-section of the limiting flange, and the cross-section of the bottom cavity is adapted to the cross-section of the counterweight to prevent the counterweight from falling out of the mounting cavity.
[0010] The upper end of the movable cavity is at a slightly higher level than the upper end of the drain hole to ensure that the sealing plate completely blocks the drain hole. The lower end of the movable cavity is flush with the lower surface of the shoe sole. The sum of the heights of the sealing plate and the counterweight is adapted to the height of the movable cavity to ensure that the sealing plate and the counterweight are completely contained within the installation cavity when the slipper is stepped on, thereby ensuring that the sealing plate completely blocks the drain hole.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: By setting a drainage structure on the sole, this utility model can effectively prevent water accumulation in slippers. Furthermore, because slippers sink to varying degrees during long-term wear, causing water to accumulate, this utility model sets water collection holes at the heel, forefoot, and big toe to effectively drain the accumulated water. In addition, traditional drainage slippers can only drain normally when lifted, and cannot drain when stepped on. Moreover, without a sealing structure, water may flow back. This utility model, by setting a sealing structure, allows normal drainage when the slipper is lifted, and when the slipper is stepped on, the sealing piece is squeezed back into the drainage hole, sealing the drainage hole, thereby effectively preventing water from flowing back.

[0018] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0019] Example: Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a drainage slipper, including a sole 1 and an upper 2. The upper side of the sole 1 is provided with a recessed drainage groove 3, and the side of the sole 1 is provided with a plurality of drainage holes 4. The sole 1 is provided with a plurality of drainage channels 5 for connecting the drainage channels 3 to the drainage holes 4. The drainage channels 5 are arranged to extend downward from the inside to the outside to ensure that water flows out of the sole 1 under the action of gravity.
[0020] In this embodiment, in order to drain the water inside the sole 1, the drainage channel 3 is set along the outline of the sole 1 at the upper edge of the sole 1, one end of the drainage channel 5 is connected to the drainage channel 3, and the drainage channel 5 extends from the drainage channel 3 to the drainage hole 4 in a straight line or in an arc.
[0021] In this embodiment, to prevent water from accumulating and flowing on the sole 1, the upper side of the sole 1 is also provided with a front collection hole 6 located at the thumb of the sole 1, a middle collection hole 7 located at the center of the forefoot, and a rear collection hole 8 located at the heel. The front collection hole 6, the middle collection hole 7, and the rear collection hole 8 are connected to the drainage hole 4 via the drainage groove 5. The upper side of the sole 1 is also provided with several water collection grooves 9 for connecting the drainage groove 3 to the front collection hole 6, the middle collection hole 7, or the rear collection hole 8.
[0022] In this embodiment, to prevent water backflow, the sole 1 is also provided with a sealing mechanism for sealing the drainage hole 4. The sealing mechanism includes a sealing piece 10 for sealing the drainage hole 4. The sealing piece 10 is installed in the sole 1 and can move up and down to control the opening and closing of the drainage hole 4. The lower side of the sealing piece 10 is provided with a counterweight 11 for driving the sealing piece 10 to move downward so as to open the drainage hole 4 when the slipper is lifted.
[0023] In this embodiment, to ensure that the drain hole 4 opens when the slipper is lifted and closes when the slipper is lowered, thereby effectively preventing water backflow, the upper side of the counterweight 11 is provided with a horizontally outwardly protruding limiting flange 12. The sole 1 is provided with a movable cavity for the sealing plate 10 and the counterweight 11 to move. The movable cavity includes, from top to bottom, an upper cavity 14 for accommodating the sealing plate 10, a lower cavity 15 for accommodating the counterweight 11, and a bottom cavity for the counterweight 11 to move. The height of the lower cavity 15 is less than the height of the counterweight 11. The shape of the upper cavity 14 is adapted to the shape of the sealing plate 10. The cross-section of the lower cavity 15 is adapted to the cross-section of the limiting flange 12. The cross-section of the bottom cavity is adapted to the cross-section of the counterweight 11 to prevent the counterweight 11 from falling out of the mounting cavity.
[0024] The upper end of the movable cavity is at a slightly higher level than the upper end of the drain hole 4 to ensure that the sealing piece 10 completely seals the drain hole 4. The lower end of the movable cavity is flush with the lower plane of the shoe sole 1. The sum of the heights of the sealing piece 10 and the counterweight 11 is adapted to the height of the movable cavity to ensure that the sealing piece 10 and the counterweight 11 are completely contained in the installation cavity when the slipper is stepped on, thereby ensuring that the sealing piece 10 completely seals the drain hole 4.
[0025] This invention effectively prevents water accumulation in slippers by incorporating a drainage structure on the sole 1. Furthermore, because slippers sink to varying degrees during prolonged wear, leading to water accumulation, this invention provides water collection holes at the heel, forefoot, and big toe to effectively drain the water. In addition, traditional drainage slippers only drain properly when lifted, failing to drain when stepped on, and lacking a sealing structure, potentially causing water backflow. This invention, by incorporating a sealing structure, allows for normal drainage when the slipper is lifted, and when stepped on, the sealing piece 10 is squeezed back into the drainage hole 4, sealing it and effectively preventing water backflow.
