[0018] This invention provides the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings to aid in a comprehensive understanding of the various embodiments of the invention as defined by the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to aid understanding, but these details should be considered exemplary only. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.
[0019] In the description of this utility model, the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0020] It should be understood that when one element (e.g., the first element) is “connected” to another element (e.g., the second element), the element may be directly connected to the other element, or there may be an intervening element (e.g., the third element) between the element and the other element.
[0021] An embodiment of this utility model provides a shoe upper with a terry loop structure, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the shoe includes an upper body 100, which includes a bottom layer 101 and a terry loop layer 102 connected to the bottom layer 101. The terry loop layer 102 has multiple raised loops. In this embodiment, the bottom layer 101 and the terry loop layer 102 can be woven together using a horizontal knitting machine to simplify the knitting process. The upper body 100 has a toe cap 110, a body portion 120, and two heel portions 130. The body portion 120 is connected to the bottom of the toe cap 110, and the two heel portions 130 are respectively connected to the two sides of the bottom of the body portion 120. The toe cap 110, the body portion 120, and the two heel portions 130 are different parts of the upper body 100 corresponding to the human foot. The toe cap 110 is mainly located at the user's toes, the body portion 120 is mainly located at the user's instep, and the heel portions 130 are located at the user's heel. The toe section 110, the body section 120, and the two heel sections 130 all include a base layer 101 and a terry loop layer 102 connected to the base layer 101. A cotton layer 103 is woven into the surface of the terry loop layer 102. The cotton layer 103 is fluffy and soft, further increasing the loft of the upper based on the terry loop layer 102, thus enhancing the user's wearing comfort.
[0022] In some embodiments, the surface of the terry layer 102 is provided with a longitudinally extending fixing yarn. The fixing yarn passes through the cotton layer 103 and interweaves with the terry layer 102 to secure the cotton layer 103 to the surface of the terry layer 102. The fixing yarn can be ordinary yarn, which is equivalent to sewing the cotton layer 103 to the surface of the terry layer 102. Specifically, the fixing yarn can be woven by a horizontal knitting machine.
[0023] In some embodiments, the top surface of the middle part of the shoe body 120 has a protruding ridge 150. The middle part of the shoe body 120 is mainly where the shoe tongue is located. The ridge 150 can increase the thickness of the shoe tongue, which is equivalent to having the shoe tongue integrally connected. This eliminates the need to sew the shoe tongue onto the shoe upper body, further simplifying the shoe manufacturing process and improving production efficiency.
[0024] The raised 150 can be formed by repeatedly weaving the middle of the shoe body 120 with a horizontal knitting machine to increase the thickness of the structure.
[0025] Furthermore, raised patterns 151 connected to raised sections 150 are provided on both sides of the shoe body 120 and on both heel sections 130. The raised patterns 151 can be formed into specific patterns or shapes according to the user's needs, enhancing the recognizability of the shoe upper. The raised patterns 151 can also be formed by repeatedly weaving on the surface of the shoe body 120 and the two heel sections 130 by a horizontal knitting machine.
[0026] In some embodiments, the surface of the terry cloth layer 102 also has a plurality of breathable zones 140, and a plurality of breathable holes 141 are provided in the breathable zones 140. The breathable holes 141 can be densely distributed in the breathable zones 140, and the breathability of the upper body 100 can be increased through the breathable holes 141 to improve the comfort of the user.
[0027] Furthermore, the ventilation zone 140 is a perforated structure, which naturally contains holes to form ventilation holes 141. Thus, the ventilation holes 141 are integrally formed during the weaving process of the shoe upper body through the weaving technology, without the need for laser cutting, drilling, or other processes, thereby further simplifying the weaving process and improving production efficiency.
[0028] In some embodiments, the bottom of the upper portion 120 and the inner sides of the two heel portions 130 form an opening, which is the entrance for the user to put on the shoe. Both the bottom of the upper portion 120 and the inner sides of the two heel portions 130 are provided with elastic edging 160. Because the edging 160 is elastic, it can stretch and expand, widening the shoe opening during the user's wearing process, making it easier for the user to put on the shoe. After the user puts on the shoe, the upper portion 120 and the heel portions 130 can fit snugly against the user's foot to increase comfort.
[0029] The edging 160 can be integrally woven with the shoe body 120 and the heel 130. Specifically, when weaving the edging 160, elastic yarn can be added to make the edging 160 elastic.
[0030] The terms and words used in the foregoing description and claims are not limited to their literal meaning, but are merely used by the applicant to enable a clear and consistent understanding of the present invention. Therefore, those skilled in the art should understand that the foregoing description of various embodiments of the present invention is for illustrative purposes only, and not intended to limit the present invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
