Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shoe sole technology, specifically to a multifunctional sports shoe sole that integrates cushioning and support. Background Technology
[0002] A shoe sole generally consists of three parts: the outsole, the midsole, and the insole. The outsole, or outer layer, is the part that directly contacts the ground and requires high levels of slip resistance and abrasion resistance. Based on the production method, it can be divided into molded outsoles and assembled outsoles. In addition to having the structure of a regular shoe sole, sports shoe soles emphasize professional performance and are designed according to the needs of different sports. For example, basketball shoes focus on slip resistance and abrasion resistance, while soccer shoes require good grip and flexibility.
[0003] Existing shoe soles typically use a single material midsole for cushioning, such as ordinary EVA material. This material is prone to elasticity loss after long-term use, resulting in a decrease in cushioning performance. Moreover, it has limited ability to disperse impact force, and when subjected to greater pressure, it can easily cause excessive local stress, causing fatigue in the wearer's feet.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for innovative designs based on existing multi-functional sports shoe soles that integrate cushioning and support. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional sports shoe sole that integrates cushioning and support, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the tendency for elasticity to decay after long-term use, resulting in a decrease in cushioning performance, and its limited ability to disperse impact force. When subjected to greater pressure, it is easy to cause excessive local stress, causing fatigue in the wearer's feet.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multifunctional sports shoe sole integrating cushioning and support, comprising an upper sole layer, a protective sleeve installed on the outer wall of the upper sole layer, a middle and lower layer disposed below the upper sole layer; an anti-puncture layer disposed below the middle and lower layer, and an outer lower layer disposed below the anti-puncture layer; and an integrated mechanism for supporting and absorbing shock to the foot disposed on the top of the middle and lower layer.
[0007] Furthermore, the integrated mechanism includes elastic columns, a portion of which are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the top of the mid-bottom layer, and another portion of which are fixedly connected to the mid-bottom layer near the forefoot. The top of the elastic column installed in the middle of the mid-bottom layer is fixedly connected to a support plate, and an airbag is installed on the other side of the top of the mid-bottom layer.
[0008] Furthermore, the support plate is wavy, with protrusions on both sides of the top of the support plate and a concave point in the middle of the support plate, and an arch support piece is fixedly connected below the concave point.
[0009] Furthermore, the elastic column is in the shape of a frustum cone, with an upper base diameter of 8mm, a lower base diameter of 12mm, and a height of 10mm. Multiple elastic columns are arranged in a matrix, with a spacing of 5mm between two elastic columns.
[0010] Furthermore, a honeycomb-shaped anti-slip block is installed at the bottom of the outer bottom layer, and four sets of anti-slip strips are also installed at the bottom of the outer bottom layer, with the honeycomb-shaped anti-slip block and the anti-slip strips arranged alternately.
[0011] Furthermore, the puncture-resistant layer is made of aramid fiber board, the support plate is made of high-strength carbon fiber composite material, and the elastic column is made of elastic polymer gel material.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This multi-functional sports shoe sole integrates cushioning and support. The elastic pillars at the top of the midsole are made of elastic polymer gel material. When pressure is applied to the foot, the molecular structure inside the material deforms, and the intermolecular distance is compressed, converting kinetic energy into elastic potential energy for storage. The ring distribution of elastic pillars on the outer edge evenly distributes pressure, avoiding excessive local pressure. The elastic pillars are more densely distributed in the forefoot area, which can more effectively absorb and disperse impact force when pushing off the ground. When the foot leaves the ground, the elastic potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy for release, achieving a dual effect of cushioning and assist. The raised points on both sides of the top of the wave-shaped support plate provide support and restraint for the sides of the foot. The arch support plate below the concave point in the middle conforms to the shape of the arch, evenly distributing arch pressure, reducing the burden on the arch, and improving wearing comfort and stability.
[0014] Furthermore, the honeycomb anti-slip strips increase the contact area and friction between the sole and the ground. The honeycomb structure can adapt to uneven ground and drain water on wet surfaces, preventing the formation of a water film, maintaining effective friction, and preventing slips. The staggered anti-slip strips further enhance the anti-slip performance, providing additional friction in different walking directions and ground conditions. When walking forward, the anti-slip strips provide forward thrust; when turning or moving laterally, they provide lateral support, ensuring the wearer's safety in various situations.
[0015] Furthermore, when the shoe body comes into contact with external objects, the sheath, as the first protective layer, withstands friction and impact. The wear-resistant material it uses can resist external scratches and wear due to its high hardness and toughness. The puncture-resistant layer is made of aramid fiberboard. When the sole encounters a sharp object, the high strength, high modulus, and good cut resistance of the aramid fiber are brought into play. Through the stretching and deformation of the fiber and the blocking of the multi-layer composite structure, the energy of the sharp object is consumed, preventing it from piercing the sole and injuring the foot.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5This utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-functional sports shoe sole integrating cushioning and support, comprising an upper sole 1, a protective sleeve 2 installed on the outer wall of the upper sole 1, a midsole 3 disposed below the upper sole 1; an anti-puncture layer 4 disposed below the midsole 3, and an outer sole 5 disposed below the anti-puncture layer 4; an integrated mechanism for supporting and absorbing shock for the foot is disposed on the top of the midsole 3; the integrated mechanism includes elastic columns 6, a portion of the elastic columns 6 being fixedly connected to the outer ring of the top of the midsole 3, and another portion of the elastic columns 6 being fixedly connected to the midsole 3 near the forefoot. The elastic column 6 installed in the middle of the middle layer 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 7. An airbag 10 is installed on the other side of the top of the middle layer 3. The support plate 7 is wavy. The top of the support plate 7 has protrusions 9 on both sides and a concave point 8 in the middle. An arch support plate 13 is fixedly connected below the concave point 8. The elastic column 6 is shaped like a frustum of a cone. The diameter of the upper bottom surface of the elastic column 6 is 8mm, the diameter of the lower bottom surface of the elastic column 6 is 12mm, and the height is 10mm. Multiple elastic columns 6 are arranged in a matrix. The distance between two elastic columns 6 is 5mm.
[0025] The protective sleeve 2 installed on the outer wall of the upper layer 1 of the sole provides some protection for the upper layer 1, preventing it from being scratched or worn. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, because the top of the midsole 3 is equipped with elastic pillars 6, some of the elastic pillars 6 are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the top of the midsole 3, and the other part of the elastic pillars 6 are fixedly connected to the position of the midsole 3 near the forefoot, when the wearer walks or exercises, the foot applies pressure to the sole, and the elastic pillars 6 are compressed and deformed, absorbing and dispersing the impact force between the foot and the ground, thus playing a cushioning role. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the elastic column 6 installed in the middle of the bottom layer 3 is fixedly connected to a support plate 7 at its top. The support plate 7 is wavy, with protrusions 9 on both sides of the top and a concave point 8 in the middle. Therefore, the protrusions 9 can provide support for both sides of the foot, and the arch support plate 13 fixedly connected below the concave point 8 can conform to the curve of the arch, providing support for the arch, reducing pressure on the arch, and improving wearing comfort and stability. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, because the elastic column 6 is made of elastic polymer gel material, under pressure, the molecular structure inside the material deforms, the distance between molecules is compressed, and the kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy and stored. At the same time, the annular distribution of the outer elastic columns 6 allows the pressure to be evenly distributed to the surroundings, avoiding excessive local pressure. Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, another part, the elastic pillars 6 located in the middle and bottom layer 3 near the forefoot, play a role when the foot pushes off the ground. When the forefoot exerts force, pressure is applied to these elastic pillars 6, causing them to deform and absorb energy. Moreover, the elastic pillars 6 are more densely distributed in the forefoot area, more effectively absorbing and dispersing the impact force generated during the push-off. When the foot leaves the ground, the elastic potential energy stored inside the elastic pillars 6 is converted into kinetic energy and released, helping the foot complete the movement more easily, achieving a dual effect of cushioning and assisting. Figure 5 As shown, when the wearer walks or exercises, the foot applies pressure to the sole of the shoe, and the airbag 10 deforms under pressure. The gas inside the airbag is compressed, thereby absorbing and dispersing the impact force between the foot and the ground. In conjunction with the cushioning effect of the elastic column 6, the airbag 10 can provide additional cushioning effect at different stress points and under different stress conditions.
[0026] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 Based on Embodiment 1, a honeycomb anti-slip block 11 is also disclosed, the specific structure of which is as follows:
[0027] The bottom of the outer bottom layer 5 is equipped with a honeycomb anti-slip block 11, and the bottom of the outer bottom layer 5 is also equipped with four sets of anti-slip strips 12. The honeycomb anti-slip block 11 and the anti-slip strips 12 are arranged alternately. The puncture-resistant layer 4 is made of aramid fiber board, the support plate 7 is made of high-strength carbon fiber composite material, and the elastic column 6 is made of elastic polymer gel material.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, because the bottom of the outer bottom layer 5 is equipped with a honeycomb-shaped anti-slip block 11, the honeycomb structure increases the contact area and friction between the sole and the ground. When the sole contacts the ground, the honeycomb-shaped anti-slip block 11 can better grip the ground and prevent slipping. Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, since four sets of anti-slip strips 12 are also installed on the bottom of the outer bottom layer 5, and the honeycomb anti-slip blocks 11 and anti-slip strips 12 are arranged alternately, the anti-slip strips 12 further enhance the anti-slip performance of the sole. Especially under different walking directions and ground conditions, the anti-slip strips 12 can provide additional friction to ensure the safety of the wearer when walking. Figure 6 As shown, the puncture-resistant layer 4 is made of aramid fiberboard, which has high strength, high modulus, and good cut resistance. When the sole encounters a sharp object, the puncture-resistant layer 4 can prevent the sharp object from penetrating and protect the foot from injury.
