Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semi-finished shoe upper technology, and in particular to a luminous shoe upper with light spots. Background Technology

[0002] Glow-in-the-dark shoes enhance visibility on dark roads and offer excellent nighttime illumination, making them popular among night runners. Currently, most glow-in-the-dark shoe uppers on the market are made by directly coating the shoe surface with fluorescent powder or glow-in-the-dark ink through spraying or printing, or by coating it onto a thin sheet and then sewing or gluing the sheet to the shoe surface. Whether directly coated or indirectly via a sheet, the glow-in-the-dark agent only adheres to the surface and is easily detached due to wear; the durability and stability of the glow-in-the-dark agent are relatively poor.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this paper proposes a luminescent shoe upper that allows the luminescent agent to remain stably and persistently on the shoe surface. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above problems, this utility model proposes a light-spot luminous shoe upper to solve the problem of easy shedding of fluorescent agent in luminous shoe uppers.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a luminous shoe upper, comprising a shoe upper base fabric layer, characterized in that: the shoe upper base fabric layer is provided with a plurality of irregularly shaped first luminous parts on the left and right sides of the shoe opening, and the shoe upper base fabric layer is provided with a second luminous part on the periphery of the shoe tongue opening; the first luminous part comprises a first luminous yarn, which is embroidered on the shoe upper base fabric layer, and the second luminous part comprises a second luminous yarn, which is embroidered on the shoe upper base fabric layer, the distribution density of the first luminous yarn is greater than the distribution density of the second luminous yarn; the first luminous yarn is composed of 5-10 20-30μm luminous yarns twisted together, and the second luminous yarn is composed of 3-8 20-30μm luminous yarns twisted together; the luminous yarn comprises yarn and a luminescent agent, and the luminescent agent is coated on the surface of the yarn.

[0006] A further improvement is that the diameters of the first and second luminescent yarns are 25 μm.

[0007] A further improvement is that the number of the first luminescent yarns is 8.

[0008] A further improvement is that the number of the second luminescent yarns is 5.

[0009] A further improvement is that the base fabric layer of the shoe upper is also provided with a reinforcing structure to enhance the deformation resistance of the shoe upper.

[0010] A further improvement is that the reinforcing structure includes several first rope embroidery and second rope embroidery. The first rope embroidery is wrapped around the left rear end of the shoe upper base fabric layer and fixed to the front end and right rear end of the shoe upper base fabric layer. The portion of the first rope embroidery located on both sides of the shoe tongue opening is S-shaped. The second rope embroidery is embroidered around the shoe tongue opening and onto the shoe upper base fabric layer.

[0011] A further improvement is that the number of the first rope embroidery is six, and the width of the first rope embroidery gradually decreases from the opening of the shoe tongue outwards.

[0012] A further improvement is that an irregularly shaped connecting line is sewn between the left and right sides of the second rope embroidery and the first rope embroidery, and several irregularly shaped clumps are stitched together on the connecting line at intervals.

[0013] A further improvement is that the colors of some of the aforementioned clumps consist of 5-8 colors.

[0014] By adopting the aforementioned technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Traditional glow-in-the-dark shoe uppers rely solely on surface-mounted luminescent agents, which are easily detached due to wear. This new upper, however, incorporates luminescent agent-containing yarns embroidered into the base fabric, creating a stable bond between the luminescent component and the upper. These yarns are composed of multiple strands, each coated with the luminescent agent, increasing the adhesion area and ensuring the yarns adhere firmly to each other, preventing detachment. The first and second luminescent yarns are configured with 8 and 5 yarns respectively, creating different distribution densities. This results in a higher light intensity at the heel compared to the front, providing clear visibility in the dark for safety during activities like night running. The difference in light intensity also creates a unique visual depth, enhancing the shoe's aesthetic appeal at night. Furthermore, the luminescent agent coating on the yarn surface, combined with the tight embroidery between the yarn and the base fabric, significantly reduces the likelihood of wear and tear, greatly enhancing the durability and stability of the luminescent effect.

[0016] 2. The reinforced structure on the upper enhances its resistance to deformation from multiple dimensions. The first rope embroidery wraps around and secures the shoe from the left rear end to the front and right rear end. Its S-shaped sections on both sides of the tongue strengthen the shoe's resistance to deformation in the front-to-back and toe directions, while also enhancing lateral stability. The width of the six first rope embroidered strands gradually decreases from the tongue opening outwards, adding a touch of design while maintaining performance. The second rope embroidery wraps around the perimeter of the tongue opening, effectively strengthening its resistance to deformation and ensuring sufficient strength after lacing, preventing damage from repeated wearing, removal, and pulling. Furthermore, the connecting lines between the second and first rope embroidery on both sides are not only connected by irregular paths but also feature several irregularly embroidered clusters of various colors, creating a floral effect. At night, the colorful irregular clusters on the connecting lines create a floral effect, echoing the design of the luminous parts and enriching the visual elements of the upper. The combination of different colors and irregular shapes gives the shoe upper a unique artistic feel, satisfying consumers' demands for personalization and aesthetics. Meanwhile, details such as the varying width of the first rope embroidery perfectly blend functional structure with decorative elements, allowing the upper to showcase a higher level of design while maintaining practicality. While enhancing the aesthetics of the upper, it also further strengthens its overall resistance to deformation, allowing it to better maintain its shape during long-term use and extending the shoe's lifespan.

[0021] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] refer to Figures 1 to 4This utility model discloses a luminous shoe upper, comprising a base fabric layer 10. The base fabric layer 10 has several irregularly shaped first luminous portions 11 on the left and right sides of the shoe opening. The base fabric layer 10 also has second luminous portions 12 on the periphery of the shoe tongue. Each first luminous portion 11 includes a first luminous yarn 13 embroidered onto the base fabric layer 10. Each second luminous portion 12 includes a second luminous yarn 14. 4. Embroidery is applied to the base fabric layer 10 of the shoe upper. The distribution density of the first luminescent yarn 13 is greater than that of the second luminescent yarn 14. The first luminescent yarn 13 is composed of 5-10 strands of 20-30μm luminescent yarns twisted together, and the second luminescent yarn 14 is composed of 3-8 strands of 20-30μm luminescent yarns twisted together. The diameter of the first luminescent yarn 13 and the second luminescent yarn 14 is 25μm, with 8 strands of the first luminescent yarn 13 and 5 strands of the second luminescent yarn 14. The first luminescent part 11 and the second luminescent part 12 use different numbers of luminescent yarns and have different embroidery densities, resulting in a greater light intensity at the heel of the shoe upper than at the front, thus creating different nighttime visual effects through varying light intensities. The luminescent yarn includes yarn and a luminescent agent, which is coated on the surface of the yarn. The luminescent agent is a phosphorescent agent or a fluorescent agent.

[0023] The upper base fabric layer 10 is further provided with a reinforcing structure to enhance the deformation resistance of the upper. The reinforcing structure includes several first rope embroidery 15s and second rope embroidery 16s. The first rope embroidery 15s are wound around the upper base fabric layer 10 from the left rear end to the front end and the right rear end, and are fixed to the upper base fabric layer 10. The portions of the first rope embroidery 15s located on both sides of the tongue opening are S-shaped. The first rope embroidery 15s enhance the deformation resistance in the front-to-back direction and the toe area, and the S-shaped portion also increases the deformation resistance in the left-to-right direction. There are six first rope embroidery 15s, and the width of the first rope embroidery 15s gradually decreases from the tongue opening outwards, ensuring the deformation resistance of the upper while also increasing its design and aesthetics. The second rope embroidery 16s are embroidered around the tongue opening on the upper base fabric layer 10, enhancing the deformation resistance of the tongue opening and ensuring its strength after the shoelaces are inserted.

[0024] An irregularly shaped connecting line 17 is sewn between the left and right sides of the second rope embroidery 16 and the first rope embroidery 15. Several irregularly shaped clusters 18 are embroidered on the connecting line 17 at intervals. The clusters 18 are composed of 5-8 different colors, presenting a floral effect, enhancing the aesthetics of the shoe surface, and also strengthening the shoe surface's resistance to deformation.
