Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of footwear, and in particular to a casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven upper. Background Technology

[0002] Casual shoes are a type of footwear that emphasizes comfort while also focusing on fashion and personal expression. They typically feature soft, breathable uppers and comfortable, shock-absorbing soles, making them suitable for casual or informal occasions such as walking, shopping, traveling, or participating in leisure activities.

[0003] In the prior art, casual shoes include a sole and an upper set on the sole. To improve overall breathability, the upper is usually made of woven fabric, such as polyester fiber, nylon fiber and other fabrics, which have good breathability and reduce the possibility of the wearer's feet becoming stuffy.

[0004] However, such woven fabrics are usually soft and lightweight, and it is difficult to maintain a three-dimensional shape by relying solely on the woven layer. When not worn, the surface of the shoe upper is prone to collapsing inward after losing the support of the human foot, which reduces the overall aesthetics. Therefore, further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To reduce the possibility of the upper surface collapsing inward, this application provides a casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven upper.

[0006] The anti-collapse woven casual shoe provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven upper includes a sole and an upper. The upper has an opening and an installation opening on the instep of the foot, within which a tongue is provided. A first shaping strip is provided on the surface of the upper, comprising a shaping part and a connecting part. Two shaping parts are provided, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the installation opening, with both ends of each shaping part extending along the length of the upper. The connecting part is located on the side of the installation opening away from the opening, and both ends of the connecting part are connected to the two shaping parts respectively.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, both ends of the two shaping parts extend along the length of the shoe upper and are connected into a whole by the connecting part to form a "U" shaped first shaping strip to surround the outside of the mounting opening. The first shaping strip can improve the structural stability of the shoe upper surface, so that the shoe upper surface can maintain its three-dimensional shape as much as possible and reduce the possibility of the shoe upper surface collapsing inward.

[0009] Optionally, the shoe upper is provided with shoelaces that cross over the instep of the human foot, and each of the shaping parts has multiple through holes for the shoelaces to pass through.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, holes are provided for shoelaces to pass through. After the shoelaces are tied and fixed, the shaping part and the surface of the upper share the tightening force of the shoelaces, thereby reducing the possibility of the upper surface being torn by the shoelaces.

[0011] Optionally, the upper of the shoe is wrapped with a second shaping strip on the surface edge of the foot, with both ends of the second shaping strip extending toward the arch of the foot, and the bottom surface of the second shaping strip being connected to the top surface of the sole.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the second shaping strip, the structural stability of the shoe upper is further improved, so that the surface of the shoe upper can maintain its three-dimensional shape as much as possible.

[0013] Optionally, the upper of the shoe is provided with a first support plate on the surface of the human heel, and the two sides of the first support plate extend to the two sides of the upper of the shoe located at the human heel.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the first protective plate improves the structural stability of the shoe upper at the heel, reducing the possibility of surface collapse at this location. Furthermore, the first protective plate provides wrapping support to the ankle, reducing the likelihood of ankle sprains during walking or exercise.

[0015] Optionally, the shoe upper is provided with a second support plate on both sides of the human foot heel, and the two second support plates are provided with two shaping parts corresponding to each other; one end of the second support plate is connected to the first support plate, and the other end covers the surface of the corresponding shaping part; the surface of the second support plate away from the first support plate has a tightening hole for the shoelace to pass through.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the shoelaces are tied and tightened on the shoe upper, the shoelaces pull on the first protective plate through the second protective plate, so that the first and second protective plates work together on the surface of the shoe upper, making the inner wall of the shoe upper fit the ankle of the human body more closely and improving wearing comfort.

[0017] Optionally, the surface of the shoe upper has two ventilation holes, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the shoe upper located on the arch of the human foot; each ventilation hole is provided with a cover plate on the outside, one side of the cover plate is connected to the side wall of the shaping part, and under normal conditions, the free side of the cover plate hangs down and covers the ventilation hole.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the ventilation openings improves the breathability of the shoe upper, reducing the possibility of stuffiness in the wearer's feet. Under normal conditions, the free side of the cover plate covers the ventilation opening under the action of gravity, thus blocking the outside of the ventilation opening and reducing the possibility of foreign objects falling into the shoe upper through the ventilation opening.

[0019] Optionally, the upper surface is provided with a support airbag, the support airbag is located between the ventilation port and the shaping part, and the lower surface of the cover plate abuts against the support airbag; the sole is provided with an inflation component that forces the support airbag to inflate.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the inflation component forces the top support airbag to expand. The expanded top support airbag can push the cover sheet, forcing the cover sheet to flip upward, thereby improving the air permeability of the vent.

[0021] Optionally, the sole has an installation cavity, and the inflation component includes an air bladder and a connecting hose. The air bladder is disposed in the installation cavity, and one end of the connecting hose is connected to the air bladder, while the other end extends out of the sole and is connected to the top support air bladder.

[0022] By employing the above technical solution, when the wearer's foot lands during walking, the inflatable bladder is compressed, causing the gas inside to be released through a connecting hose to the top support bladder, forcing the cover plate to flip upwards on its free side. When the wearer's foot leaves the ground, the sole returns to its original shape, and the gas in the top support bladder flows back into the inflatable bladder, causing the cover plate to flip downwards again under gravity. The resulting effect is that the cover plate opens and closes repeatedly during walking, creating a simulated "wing flapping" effect, greatly enhancing the fun of the casual shoe.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. By setting the first shaping strip, both ends of the two shaping parts extend along the length of the shoe upper and are connected into a whole by the connecting part to form a "U" shaped first shaping strip to surround the outside of the installation opening. The first shaping strip can improve the structural stability of the shoe upper surface, so that the shoe upper surface can maintain its three-dimensional shape as much as possible and reduce the possibility of the shoe upper surface collapsing inward.

[0025] 2. By incorporating the first protective plate, the structural stability of the shoe upper at the heel is improved, reducing the likelihood of surface collapse at this location. Furthermore, the first protective plate provides wrapping support for the ankle, reducing the possibility of ankle sprains during walking or exercise.

[0026] 3. The design incorporates ventilation openings and a cover plate. The ventilation openings enhance the breathability of the shoe upper, reducing the likelihood of stuffy feet. Under normal conditions, the free side of the cover plate covers the ventilation opening under gravity, thus blocking the outside of the opening and reducing the possibility of foreign objects falling into the shoe upper through the ventilation opening.

[0033] The following combination Figures 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] This application discloses a casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven surface.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 A type of non-collapse woven casual shoe includes a sole 1 and an upper 2. The upper 2 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the sole 1. The upper 2 has an opening 21 for the human foot to enter. The upper 2 has an installation opening 22 on the instep of the human foot. One end of the installation opening 22 is connected to the opening 21. A tongue 23 is installed on the inner wall of the installation opening 22. Shoelaces 24 are crisscrossed on the upper 2 on the instep of the human foot.

[0037] In this embodiment, a first shaping strip 3 is installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2, and the first shaping strip 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the shoe upper 2 by sewing. The first shaping strip 3 includes a shaping part 31 and a connecting part 32. There are two shaping parts 31, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mounting opening 22. Both ends of each shaping part 31 extend along the length direction of the shoe upper 2, and the surface of each shaping part 31 has multiple through holes 311 for the shoelace 24 to pass through.

[0038] The connecting part 32 is located on the side of the mounting opening 22 away from the shoe opening 21. The two ends of the connecting part 32 are respectively connected to one end of the two shaping parts 31. The connecting part 32 and the two shaping parts 31 are combined to form a first shaping strip 3 in the shape of "U" to surround the edge of the mounting opening 22.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The upper 2 of the shoe is wrapped with a second shaping strip 4 on the surface edge of the human foot. The second shaping strip 4 can be fixedly connected to the surface of the upper 2 by sewing. The two ends of the second shaping strip 4 extend towards the arch of the human foot. The bottom surface of the second shaping strip 4 is connected to the top surface of the sole 1 by adhesive bonding.

[0040] A first support plate 5 is fixedly installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2 at the heel of the human foot. The two sides of the first support plate 5 extend to the two sides of the shoe upper 2 at the heel of the human foot. A second support plate 6 is fixedly installed on both sides of the shoe upper 2 at the heel of the human foot. The two second support plates 6 are correspondingly arranged with the two shaping parts 31. One end of the second support plate 6 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 5, and the other end covers the surface of the corresponding shaping part 31. In this embodiment, the first support plate 5 and the second support plate 6 are both fixedly installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2 by sewing. A tightening hole 61 for the shoelace 24 to pass through is opened on the surface of the second support plate 6 away from the first support plate 5. The tightening hole 61 is connected to the through hole 311 of the shaping part 31.

[0041] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: both ends of the two shaping parts 31 extend along the length direction of the shoe upper 2 and are connected into a whole by the connecting part 32, forming a "U"-shaped first shaping strip 3 to surround the outside of the mounting opening 22. The second shaping strip 4 wraps around the edge of the shoe upper 2 at the foot, and the first support plate 5 wraps around the heel of the shoe upper 2, so that the surface of the shoe upper 2 maintains its three-dimensional shape as much as possible, reduces the possibility of the surface of the shoe upper 2 collapsing inward, and improves the structural stability of the surface of the shoe upper 2.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] This application discloses a casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven surface.

[0044] The difference between the anti-collapse woven casual shoe disclosed in this application and Embodiment 1 is that:

[0045] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4In this embodiment, two ventilation holes 25 are provided on the surface of the shoe upper 2. The two ventilation holes 25 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the shoe upper 2 located on the arch of the human foot. A cover plate 26 is installed on the outside of each ventilation hole 25. One side of the cover plate 26 is connected to the side wall of the shaping part 31. For ease of description, the side of the cover plate 26 away from the shaping part 31 is defined as the free side of the cover plate 26. Under normal conditions, the free side of the cover plate 26 hangs down under its own weight and covers the ventilation hole 25.

[0046] The implementation principle of Embodiment 2 of this application is as follows: the setting of the ventilation opening 25 improves the breathability of the shoe upper 2 and reduces the possibility of stuffiness in the wearer's feet. Under normal conditions, the free side of the cover 26 covers the ventilation opening 25 under the action of gravity, thereby blocking the outside of the ventilation opening 25 and reducing the possibility of foreign objects falling into the shoe upper 2 through the ventilation opening 25.

[0047] Example 3:

[0048] This application discloses a casual shoe with an anti-collapse woven surface.

[0049] The difference between the anti-collapse woven casual shoe disclosed in this application and Embodiment 2 is that:

[0050] Reference Figure 5 In this embodiment, a top support airbag 7 is fixedly installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2. The top support airbag 7 is fixedly installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2 by adhesive bonding, and the top support airbag 7 is located between the ventilation opening 25 and the shaping part 31. The lower surface of the cover piece 26 abuts against the outer surface of the top support airbag 7.

[0051] The sole 1 is provided with an inflation component 8 that forces the top support airbag 7 to inflate. The sole 1 has an installation cavity 11 located in the arch of the foot. The inflation component 8 includes an airbag 81 and a connecting hose 82. The airbag 81 is fixedly installed in the installation cavity 11, and the outer surface of the airbag 81 is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the installation cavity 11 by adhesive.

[0052] One end of the connecting hose 82 is connected to the air bladder 81, and the other end extends out of the sole 1 and is connected to the top support air bladder 7. It should be noted that, in order to ensure that the connecting hose 82 fits snugly against the inner surface of the upper 2, a covering cloth (not shown in the figure) can be sewn onto the inner surface of the upper 2, and the connecting hose 82 is bound to the inner surface of the upper 2 by the covering cloth.

[0053] Reference Figure 5Two support bars 83 are installed on the inner wall of the airbag 81. The two support bars 83 are bonded and fixed to the inner surface of the airbag 81. A return spring 84 is fixedly installed between the two support bars 83. Under normal conditions, the return spring 84 forces the two support bars 83 to move away from each other so that the airbag 81 is in an inflated state. It should be noted that when the airbag 81 is in an inflated state, the top support airbag 7 is in a contracted state.

[0054] The implementation principle of Embodiment 3 of this application is as follows: During the wearer's walking process, when the wearer's foot lands, the inflatable bladder 81 is compressed, thereby releasing the gas inside the inflatable bladder 81 through the connecting hose 82 to the top support bladder 7, forcing the free side of the cover plate 26 to flip upwards. When the wearer's foot lifts off the ground, the sole 1 returns to its original shape, and the gas inside the top support bladder 7 flows back to the inflatable bladder 81, causing the cover plate 26 to flip downwards again under the action of gravity. The effect achieved is that when the wearer repeatedly steps on the ground during walking, the cover plate 26 can swing back and forth, forming a simulated "wing flapping" effect, greatly improving the fun of the casual shoes and thus increasing their appeal to children.

[0055] The above are preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
