Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of footwear technology, and in particular to a structure and shoe for preventing tongue displacement. Background Technology
[0002] The tongue is a crucial component of a shoe, located between the laces and the instep, named for its tongue-like shape. It connects the lacing system to the inner lining of the shoe, providing a dynamic fit and protecting the instep from friction and pressure. Modern shoe tongues can slip due to the following conditions: The use of smooth fabrics (such as polyester or thin canvas) can easily cause the tongue to slip due to low friction. The asymmetrical structure of the human foot's instep bones (with the top bones biased inwards) naturally applies pressure outwards during walking, forcing the tongue to shift.
[0003] Traditional shoe tongues rely solely on laces for stability and lack anchoring structures. Thin shoe tongues offer poor torsional resistance during dynamic activities, requiring users to frequently adjust their position, which can disrupt the rhythm of movement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a structure and shoe that prevents the tongue from shifting, thereby solving the problem that the tongue is prone to shifting during the wearing of shoes.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a structure for preventing shoe tongue displacement, comprising: an upper and a tongue, wherein the front side of the tongue is integrally formed with the upper, the inner side of the tongue is integrally formed with the upper, the outer side of the tongue is divided with the upper to form an opening, an elastic portion is provided on the outer edge of the tongue, a first connecting member for fixing the tongue is provided at intervals on the elastic portion, and a second connecting member is provided on the upper, wherein the first connecting member and the second connecting member cooperate.
[0006] Preferably, the front 1 / 3 area of the tongue is integrally formed with the upper, the inner side of the rear 2 / 3 area of the tongue is integrally formed with the upper, and the outer side is separated from the upper.
[0007] Preferably, the dividing line between the outer side of the shoe tongue and the shoe upper is located off-center on the shoe upper, close to the outer side of the shoe upper.
[0008] Preferably, at least two-thirds of the rear portion of the tongue comprises foam and a mesh covering the foam.
[0009] Preferably, the shoe upper is provided with at least one row of second connectors, and each row consists of a plurality of second connectors spaced apart along the length of the shoe.
[0010] Preferably, the second connector is provided in three rows. The distance between two adjacent rows of the second connector is 4-6 mm.
[0011] Preferably, the first connector is a fixing hook and the second connector is a fixing buckle.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] Example 1 like Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a structure to prevent the shoe tongue from shifting, including: shoe upper 100 and shoe tongue 200. The shoe tongue 200 is composed of foam 220 and mesh fabric 230 covering the outside of foam 220. The mesh fabric 230 covering foam 220 can fix the shape of foam 220. Foam 220 has good elasticity and softness, can conform to the curvature of the instep, and reduce the pressure of shoe tongue 200 on the foot. The front of the tongue 200 is integrally formed with the upper 100, and the inner side of the tongue 200 is also integrally formed with the upper 100. An opening 120 is formed between the outer side of the tongue 200 and the upper 100, with the opening 120 located near the outer side of the upper 100. This means the inner side of the tongue 200 is the side where the two shoes are closest to each other—the right side of the left shoe and the left side of the right shoe. The integral formation of the tongue 200 with the upper 100 eliminates seams, reducing friction and pressure marks on the instep and improving comfort during extended wear. The fixed connection between the sides of the tongue 200 and the upper 100 effectively prevents displacement. In other embodiments, the tongue 200 and the upper 100 can also be connected by sewing.
[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 6 The front 1 / 3 of the tongue 200 is integrally formed with the upper 100, and the inner side of the rear 2 / 3 of the tongue 200 is integrally formed with the upper 100, while the outer side is separated from the upper 100. The front 1 / 3 of the tongue 200 is area A in the diagram, and the rear 2 / 3 of the tongue 200 is area B in the diagram. The dividing line between the outer side of the tongue 200 and the upper 100 is located off-center from the upper 100, close to the outer side of the upper 100. The outer side of the upper 100 and the outer side of the tongue 200 are on the same side. At least the rear 2 / 3 of the tongue 200 includes foam 220 and a mesh fabric 230 covering the foam 220.
[0023] The outer edge of the shoe tongue 200 is provided with an elastic portion 210. The outer side of the shoe tongue 200 is the side of the two shoes that are far apart. The elastic portion 210 is an elastic band that is sewn onto the side of the shoe tongue 200. The elastic portion 210 is provided with first connecting members 211 for fixing the shoe tongue 200 at intervals. The first connecting member 211 is a fixing hook. The elastic band provides lateral tension to prevent the shoe tongue 200 from shifting when the fixing hook is connected to the fixing buckle. The upper 100 is provided with a second connecting member 110. The first connecting member 211 and the second connecting member 110 cooperate with each other. The second connecting member 110 is a fixing buckle. The fixing buckle is ring-shaped, such as a circular ring, triangular ring, rectangular ring, etc., and can be made of metal or plastic so that the fixing hook can be hung on the fixing buckle. The fixing hook hooks the fixing buckle to fix the shoe tongue 200 to the upper 100.
[0024] In this embodiment, the second connector 110 has three rows. The distance between adjacent second connectors 110 is 5mm. The three rows of fixing buckles are arranged sequentially in the direction away from the shoe tongue 200. When the fixing hook hooks the row of fixing buckles closest to the shoe tongue 200, it corresponds to a loose fixing state, in which the shoe exerts less restraint on the foot; when the fixing hook hooks the middle row of fixing buckles, it corresponds to a comfortable fixing state, in which the shoe exerts moderate restraint on the foot, and the shoe feels relatively comfortable to wear; when the fixing hook hooks the row of fixing buckles furthest from the shoe tongue 200, it corresponds to a tight fixing state, in which the shoe exerts greater restraint on the foot, and the shoe is not easy to slip off the foot. The three different fixing states meet the personalized wearing needs of the wearer in different scenarios.
[0025] When in use, loosen the hook and buckle, at which point the tongue 200 can be easily opened from one side for easy putting on and taking off. During wear, the wearer can flexibly adjust the position of the hook and buckle according to their actual needs, thereby effectively adjusting the tightness of the shoe to adapt to different wearing scenarios.
[0026] This design releases pressure from the top by opening a longitudinal slit on the side, while simultaneously shifting the anchor point down to the lower edge of the outer side of the instep (the peroneus brevis tendon area)—where the bony protrusion forms a natural anchor. Combined with the active engagement of three rows of parallel hooks and the tongue hooks, this shifts the force axis from the easily shifting top of the foot to the stable side, leveraging ergonomic advantages to transform resistance to physiological characteristics into compliance with biomechanics. Its unique value lies in replacing rigid constraints with structural load reduction, achieving not only zero-offset dynamic locking but also distributing 100% of the pressure traditionally borne by the tongue to the sock body (80%) and the side hooks (20%).
[0027] This utility model also discloses a shoe, including a sole 300 and a structure to prevent the tongue 200 from shifting.
[0028] Example 2 like Figure 5 The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the first connector 211 is the hook or loop side of a Velcro strap, and the second connector 110 is the loop or hook side of a Velcro strap. Using Velcro allows for quick connection of the first connector 211 and the second connector 110, and adjustment of their tightness.
[0029] Example 3 like Figure 4 The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the first connecting member 211 is a snap fastener (either a male or female), and the second connecting member 110 is a snap fastener (either a female or male). The snap fasteners provide a secure connection and allow for quick connection with a simple press.
[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
