Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-heeled shoe technology, and in particular to a high-heeled shoe that can protect the toes. Background Technology

[0002] High heels are shoes with heels that are significantly higher than the toe, typically exceeding 5 centimeters in height. They not only increase the wearer's height but also enhance leg lines and overall appearance. High heels can be traced back to ancient Egypt (3500 BC) as a way to distinguish social classes; in the 16th century, Persian cavalry used them to secure their stirrups; in the 17th century, European nobility (especially during the reign of Louis XIV of France) used high heels as a symbol of status; and in the 20th century, high heels became a staple of women's fashion, evolving into various styles.

[0003] When wearing high heels, body weight shifts to the balls of the feet. The higher the heel, the more weight shifts forward, increasing pressure on the balls of the feet and causing pain. Most high heels are designed to be flat and lack arch support, leading to excessive stretching of the plantar fascia and causing plantar fasciitis.

[0004] Chinese patent application CN201280018987.9 discloses a high-heeled shoe with an elastic component between the upper and lower parts of the heel. This elastic component absorbs high pressure at the ankle position with a described heel diameter and excessive extension, where the force can be equivalent to 2.5 times the wearer's body weight. To ideally support physiological shock absorption, the shock-absorbing element is selected such that with increasing compression, a greater increase in force is required for the same walking motion (progressive spring characteristics). In the region of maximum compression, the force required to compress the shock-absorbing element preferably increases disproportionately. Therefore, the shock-absorbing element is preferably very sensitive to load initially, but becomes stiffer with greater deformation, thus corresponding to the physiological shock-absorbing structure of the heel area. However, this high-heeled shoe lacks toe protection. When wearing the shoe, the foot tilts forward, squeezing the toes towards the toe area, increasing the pressure and friction between the toes and the shoe upper, causing pain for the wearer. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a high-heeled shoe that can protect the toes, thereby solving the problems raised in related technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a high-heeled shoe that can protect the toes is provided, comprising a sole, a heel, and an upper, wherein the upper is fixedly disposed above the sole, the heel is fixedly disposed below the rear end of the sole, a layer of air cotton is fixedly disposed on the inner surface of the upper, and an arch blocking part and a foot blocking part are fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the heel, wherein the arch blocking part is used to prevent the arch of the foot from moving down along the sole, and the foot blocking part is used to prevent the foot from moving forward along the sole.

[0007] Furthermore, the rear end of the sole is significantly higher than the front end, and a steep slope is formed in the middle of the sole.

[0008] Furthermore, the arch support is located on the steep slope of the sole.

[0009] Furthermore, the arch support includes several baffles, the upper surface of which is arc-shaped.

[0010] Furthermore, the baffle strip is provided with a plurality of first ventilation holes, which are used for sweat absorption and ventilation.

[0011] Furthermore, the foot blocking part is located at the front end of the sole, and the foot blocking part includes a pad. A recessed groove is provided above the pad, and a plurality of protrusions are provided in the recessed groove. All the protrusions are fixedly connected to the pad.

[0012] Furthermore, the foot blocking part also includes four blocks, all of which are located on the front side of the pad, and the four blocks decrease in size from the inside to the outside.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the blocks is provided with several second ventilation holes, and a gap is formed between two adjacent blocks to accommodate toes.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention protects the toes by incorporating a retaining strip, a pad, and a stop to prevent the foot from shifting forward. The retaining strip increases friction at the arch, preventing the foot from shifting forward from the rear. The pad limits the first metatarsophalangeal joint, preventing the foot from shifting forward from the middle. The stop extends into the corresponding toe gaps, blocking the foot from shifting forward from the front, thus preventing the toes from being squeezed against the shoe surface, reducing pressure and friction, protecting the toes from injury, and preventing pain. The air-filled material absorbs the reaction force from the ground during walking or exercise, reducing the impact on the toes, and also reduces the compression and friction of the shoe on the toes, thereby improving the wearer's comfort.

[0017] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0018] This embodiment provides a high-heeled shoe that can protect the toes, such as Figure 1 As shown, the shoe includes a sole 1, a heel 2, and an upper 3. The upper 3 is fixed above the sole 1, and the heel 2 is fixed below the rear end of the sole 1. A layer of air cotton is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the upper 3, covering the front inner surface of the upper 3 and separating the toes from the upper 3. The fluffy structure of the air cotton can absorb the reaction force of the ground during walking or exercise, reducing the impact on the toes. The air cotton is soft and can conform to the curve of the toes, reducing the squeezing and friction caused by shoes that are too hard or ill-fitting, and preventing blisters or black toenails. An arch support and a ball support are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the heel 2. The arch support is used to prevent the arch of the foot from moving down along the sole 1, and the ball support is used to prevent the ball of the foot from moving forward along the sole 1.

[0019] The rear end of sole 1 is significantly higher than the front end, and a steep slope is formed in the middle of sole 1.

[0020] The arch support is located on the steep slope of the sole 1.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the arch support includes several baffles 4, and the upper surface of the baffles 4 is arc-shaped.

[0022] The baffle 4 is provided with several first ventilation holes 5, which are used for sweat absorption and ventilation.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, a foot-blocking part is located at the front end of the sole 1. The foot-blocking part includes a pad 6, with a recessed groove on top of the pad 6. Several protrusions 7 are located within the recessed groove, and all protrusions 7 are fixedly connected to the pad 6. Both the pad 6 and the retaining strip 4 are made of soft, slow-rebound memory foam, which can adaptively shape according to the wearer's body temperature and pressure, providing personalized support. It is soft, shock-absorbing, and alleviates discomfort for the wearer. The recessed groove is positioned corresponding to the first metatarsophalangeal joint, accommodating it and preventing the foot from sliding on the pad 6, thus preventing the toes from being squeezed against the shoe upper 3 and avoiding pain for the wearer. The protrusions 7 increase the friction between the foot and the pad 6, further hindering foot sliding.

[0024] The foot-blocking section also includes four blocks 8, all located on the front side of the pad 6, with the four blocks 8 decreasing in size from the inside out. Each block 8 corresponds to a specific toe gap. The surface of each block 8 is a smooth, curved shape to reduce friction on the toes and improve wearer comfort. The protruding upper surface of each block 8 extends into the toe gap, preventing the foot from shifting forward and avoiding squeezing the toes against the shoe upper 3. The blocks 8 are made of soft rubber, preventing forward foot movement while reducing pressure on the toes and preventing foot pain.

[0025] Each of the blocks 8 has several second ventilation holes 9, and a gap 10 is formed between two adjacent blocks 8 to accommodate the toes. The big toe and little toe are placed on the outside of the blocks 8 at both ends, and the three middle toes are placed in the gap 10.

[0026] When wearing these high heels, under the influence of gravity, the sole of the foot tends to slide down the steep slope in the middle of the sole 1. When the ball of the foot presses on the retaining strip 4, the retaining strip 4 deforms to fill the gap between the arch of the foot and the steep slope of the sole 1, increasing the contact area between the sole of the foot and the sole 1, thereby increasing the friction between the two and preventing the ball of the foot from sliding down. The retaining strip 4 can deform and adaptively fill the gap between the wearer's sole and the sole 1, increasing the fit between the wearer's sole and the sole 1, preventing the ball of the foot from moving forward, and avoiding squeezing the toes onto the upper 3 of the shoe.

[0027] The retainer 4 supports the arch of the foot and prevents the plantar fascia from stretching; the retainer 4 increases the friction at the arch and prevents the foot from moving forward from the rear; the pad 6 limits the first metatarsophalangeal joint and prevents the foot from moving forward from the middle; the retainer 8 extends into the corresponding toe gap and blocks the foot from moving forward from the front, thereby preventing the toes from being squeezed on the upper 3, reducing the pressure and friction between the two, protecting the toes from injury, preventing pain, and improving the wearer's experience.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
