Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of footwear, and more particularly to an athletic shoe with a bilateral support structure. Background Technology

[0002] A well-designed upper support structure not only enhances the overall stability of the shoe and extends its lifespan, but also provides a more comfortable wearing experience. This is especially important for shoes such as athletic shoes and outdoor shoes that require prolonged walking or strenuous exercise. During daily use and exercise, the upper needs to withstand pressure and friction from all directions. A well-designed support structure can effectively distribute these forces and reduce foot injuries.

[0003] In existing shoe upper support technologies, a common practice is to add support components of uniform rigidity to the entire upper or specific areas. Some manufacturers distribute support strips evenly along both sides of the upper to enhance its overall strength; others add reinforcing plates in key areas, such as the toe and heel, to prevent deformation. Additionally, some designs employ mesh support structures, using intersecting lines to provide support. All these methods aim to improve the support performance of the upper and ensure the stability of the shoe during use.

[0004] However, traditional support methods often only provide support with a single level of stiffness, failing to provide different levels of stiffness for each side of the upper based on varying stress levels and ergonomic requirements. This results in either excessive support, affecting comfort, or insufficient support, failing to meet actual usage needs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to provide effective support for the upper while ensuring wearing comfort, this application provides a sports shoe with a double-sided support structure.

[0006] A sports shoe with a double-sided support structure includes an upper, a first support frame, and a second support frame; the first support frame is disposed on the outer side of the upper and extends along the length direction of the upper; the second support frame is disposed on the inner side of the upper and extends along the length direction of the upper; the hardness of the first support frame is greater than the hardness of the second support frame.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a first support frame extending along its length is provided on the outer side of the shoe upper, and a second support frame extending along its length is provided on the inner side of the shoe upper. The first support frame is harder than the second support frame, providing different levels of support for the two sides of the shoe upper. The harder first support frame on the outer side enhances the overall stability and impact resistance of the shoe upper, effectively preventing deformation of the outer side of the shoe upper when subjected to collisions and compression, and protecting the foot from external injuries. The relatively softer second support frame on the inner side provides some support while increasing the comfort of the inner side of the foot, avoiding the pressure of overly hard materials on the foot. This ensures that the wearer can experience both support and comfort during activities.

[0008] Optionally, the first support frame is hollowed out.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, a first support frame that extends along the length direction and has a harderness than the second support frame on the inner side is set on the outer side of the shoe upper. This can provide support with different hardness on both sides of the shoe upper, ensuring the support of the shoe upper and wearing comfort. The hollow design of the first support frame can further optimize the shoe upper structure.

[0010] Optionally, the second support frame is hollowed out.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution and hollowing out the second support frame, the weight of the shoe upper can be further reduced. This increases the breathability of the shoe upper and improves its flexibility.

[0012] Optionally, a third support frame may also be included, which is disposed at the rear end of the shoe upper.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solutions, the support and protection of the rear end of the shoe upper can be further improved.

[0014] Optionally, the outer surface of the first support frame is provided with a stiffening strip, which extends along the length direction of the shoe upper.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the support strength of the first support frame is further enhanced, while the aesthetics of the shoe upper are ensured through a layered design.

[0016] Optionally, one end of the third support frame extends to the arch position on the outer side of the shoe upper.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the third support frame is set at the rear end of the shoe upper and one end extends to the arch position on the outside of the shoe upper, thereby enhancing the support performance of the rear end of the shoe upper and the arch position.

[0018] Optionally, the third support frame has a connecting portion for connecting to the sole of the shoe.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, a connection is established between the third support frame and the sole using the connecting part, which improves the connection stability between the upper and the sole, and also ensures the connection stability between the third support frame and the shoe.

[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. By setting a first support frame with higher rigidity on the outer side of the shoe upper and a second support frame with lower rigidity on the inner side of the shoe upper, the support performance of the shoe upper is ensured while the wearing comfort of the shoe is also ensured. 2. Both the first and second support frames are hollowed out, giving the shoe upper good lightweight, breathability and flexibility; 3. By setting a third support frame at the rear of the shoe upper, with one end of the third support frame extending to the arch of the foot on the outer side of the shoe upper, further support is provided for the shoe upper.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A sports shoe with a dual-sided support and protection structure includes an upper 1, a sole 6, a first support frame 2, a second support frame 3, and a third support frame 4. The upper 1 is connected to the sole 6 to form the entire shoe.

[0026] The first support frame 2 is located on the outer side of the shoe upper 1 and extends along the length of the shoe upper 1. The second support frame 3 is located on the inner side of the shoe upper 1 and extends along the length of the shoe upper 1. The third support frame 4 is located at the rear end of the shoe upper.

[0027] Furthermore, the first support frame 2 is more rigid than the second support frame 3, thus providing different levels of rigidity for the two sides of the shoe upper, ensuring both support and comfort. Since the outer side of the shoe upper typically experiences greater pressure and impact during walking or exercise, the more rigid first support frame 2 provides sufficient support; while the inner side experiences relatively less stress, the softer second support frame 3 provides both support and comfort.

[0028] One end of the third support frame 4 extends to the arch of the foot on the outer side of the upper 1, providing additional support for the arch, helping to maintain the normal physiological curve of the foot and reduce foot fatigue. The third support frame 4 has a connecting part for connecting with the sole 6. By cooperating with the sole 6, the upper 1 and the sole 6 are connected, further enhancing the overall stability of the shoe.

[0029] Specifically, the first support frame 2, the second support frame 3, and the third support frame 4 are all made of TPU. The hardness of the first support frame 2 is between 83 and 87, and the hardness of the second support frame 3 is between 78 and 82.

[0030] Furthermore, the first support frame 2, the second support frame 3, and the third support frame 4 are all hollowed out with the hollowed-out holes angled, which reduces the weight of the shoe upper, increases its breathability, and improves its flexibility.

[0031] Furthermore, a stiffening strip 5 is provided on the outer surface of the first support frame 2. The stiffening strip 5 extends along the length of the shoe upper 1. The stiffening strip 5 has a harderness than the first support frame 2. The stiffening strip 5 is fixed to the outer surface of the first support frame 2 by adhesive or embedding. The stiffening strip 5 further enhances the hardness and wear resistance of the first support frame 2, extending its service life. The stiffening strip 5 is also made of TPU, and its hardness is between 93 and 97.

[0032] The implementation principle of an athletic shoe with a dual-sided support and protection structure is as follows: This embodiment fully considers the stress conditions and ergonomic needs of different parts of the shoe upper by setting a first support frame 2 and a second support frame 3 with different hardnesses on both sides of the shoe upper, and setting a third support frame 4 at the rear of the shoe upper. The support frames with different hardnesses provide differentiated support for the shoe upper, ensuring both support and improved wearing comfort. At the same time, the hollow design and stiffening strip 5 of the first support frame 2, as well as the extension and connecting parts of the third support frame 4, further optimize the performance of the shoe upper. Compared with the single-hardness support structure of shoe uppers in the prior art, there is a significant improvement and enhancement in terms of support performance and wearing comfort.

[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
