Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shoe upper technology, and more specifically to a waterproof and stain-resistant sports shoe upper. Background Technology

[0002] The upper of an athletic shoe is an important component of the shoe, mainly composed of three parts: the toe, the body, and the heel. It uses a variety of materials and designs to provide breathability, support, comfort, and durability; at the same time, it requires proper maintenance to maintain its performance and appearance.

[0003] The existing shoe upper, as shown in application number CN202421294966.6 "A Waterproof Flyknitted Shoe Upper", uses a waterproof and breathable surface to form the main body of the flyknitted shoe upper for waterproofing. The structure is too complicated, the manufacturing process requires high precision, and it is not practical enough. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof and stain-resistant sports shoe upper in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution: This utility model proposes a waterproof and stain-resistant sports shoe upper, including a hydrophobic surface and two water storage tanks disposed on the hydrophobic surface and symmetrically distributed thereon. The hydrophobic surface includes a water-conducting layer and two water-storing layers that are wrapped by the water-conducting layer and symmetrically distributed. A support layer is provided at the bottom of the water-conducting layer, and an anti-fouling layer is provided at the top of the support layer. A main support rib for raising the hydrophobic surface is provided in the center of the anti-fouling layer, and secondary support ribs for optimizing the flow direction are fixed to both sides of the main support rib.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the hydrophobic surface is provided with an edge strip that is easy to clean.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the edge of the water storage tank is provided with a flow-blocking strip for flow obstruction.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the water-conducting layer is made of polyurethane material to improve waterproof performance.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the water storage layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to enhance the waterproof effect.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the antifouling layer is a resin adsorption layer.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the support layer is made of waterproof sponge material to increase wearing comfort.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention utilizes the synergistic effect of a water-conducting layer and a water-retaining layer to quickly conduct water and reduce moisture residue, keeping the shoe surface dry. The anti-fouling layer uses a resin adsorption layer, which can effectively adsorb stains and prevent them from adhering to the shoe surface. At the same time, the hydrophobic surface design also reduces the adsorption of stains, further improving the anti-fouling effect. This invention effectively improves the waterproof and anti-fouling performance of the shoe surface through a double-layer protective design. Attached Figure Description

[0015] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model proposes: a waterproof and stain-resistant sports shoe upper, including a hydrophobic surface and two water storage tanks disposed on the hydrophobic surface and symmetrically distributed thereon; The hydrophobic surface includes a water-conducting layer and two water-storing layers that are wrapped by the water-conducting layer and symmetrically distributed. A support layer is provided at the bottom of the water-conducting layer, and an anti-fouling layer is provided at the top of the support layer. A main support rib for raising the hydrophobic surface is provided in the center of the anti-fouling layer, and secondary support ribs for optimizing the flow direction are fixed to both sides of the main support rib.

[0016] The hydrophobic surface is provided with an edge strip that is easy to clean.

[0017] The water storage tank is provided with flow-blocking strips at its edge.

[0018] The water-conducting layer is made of polyurethane material to improve its waterproof performance.

[0019] The water storage layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to enhance its waterproof effect.

[0020] The antifouling layer is a resin adsorption layer.

[0021] The support layer is made of waterproof sponge material to increase wearing comfort.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The upper features a hydrophobic design, which quickly guides water droplets to the water reservoir when they fall on the upper. The water-conducting layer of polyurethane material effectively guides water and prevents water from penetrating into the shoe. The water-retaining layer of polytetrafluoroethylene material temporarily stores water. When the water-retaining layer accumulates too much water, you can turn the upper over with your foot to pour out the water and keep the upper dry. The resin adsorption layer can absorb stains and prevent them from adhering to the shoe surface; the easy-to-clean edge strip design makes cleaning and maintenance convenient and further enhances the stain-resistant effect; The support layer made of waterproof sponge material provides good support and cushioning, which can increase the comfort of wearing; the main support ribs and secondary support ribs can optimize the water flow direction, enhance the structural strength of the shoe upper, and improve durability; the flow-blocking strips set on the edge of the water tank can effectively prevent water from spreading, optimize drainage performance, and prevent water from overflowing.

[0023] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
