Description

1 TARIFF A multi-functional shoe. Technical Area The invention relates to enhancing the functionality of footwear. The invention, which concerns footwear, is based on the principle that footwear must adapt to ground conditions and the fundamental structure of the shoe. Depending on the anatomical characteristics of your movements such as walking, running, and jumping, the shoe... It provides stabilization of the shoe thanks to the movement of the mechanism inside; the resulting 15 It converts mechanical energy into electrical energy and stores it for external loads and consumers. Used by. State of the Art 20 Modern shoe models are fundamentally designed to adapt the foot to ground and weather conditions. The aim is to minimize contact between the shoe sole and the foot, thereby increasing walking comfort. The manufactured... shoe models are designed to keep the foot stable in most conditions, acting as a battery. It has shortcomings such as being unable to be used and generate electrical energy. Human 25 For shoes, one of the most frequently worn garments on the body, the basics are... It cannot go beyond its capabilities. Currently in mass production, these devices can keep the leg stable in most conditions and generate electricity. There is no shoe model that can store this material. As for patents or utility models, 30 The system has not been thought out in enough detail, and the components to be used are not human-friendly. conforming to the specified dimensions and standards for use and portability This will not be the case. Previous models with known technology involved a large number of mechanical parts. Contact of the parts with water affects the functionality of the components under different ground conditions and Whether it can maintain its stability, whether the parts work stably together 35 will not work, the mechanical and elastic properties of the components used in the system, to provide the necessary flexibility during the movement of the shoe under dynamic loads 2 insufficient weight, the ability of the human body to use the weights in daily walking and 5 These are models that cannot be fitted into standard sizes. In the literature review, an example of a situation where the technique is known is given as follows: Document number TR2007 / 06912 can be shown. This document concerns a hydromechanical system. It relates to shoes. The invention in question involves a hydromechanical system placed inside the shoe. a shoe that will convert the movement generated during walking into electrical energy with this system The aim is to achieve this. In the aforementioned configuration, accumulators, check valves, and It is unlikely that related equipment such as a hydraulic motor can be installed within the available floor space; Furthermore, even if settlement were possible, a system of this size would not be desirable. Whether it will operate efficiently remains technically uncertain. The system has 15 Mechanical and elastic properties of the components used, dynamic loads of the shoe doubts about whether it will provide the necessary flexibility during its movement underneath. It is available. Producing the components to be used in these dimensions is standard production. Because it will be outside the production process, the manufacturing process will be more complex and require more engineering expertise. This would be the case. In this situation, the transition to mass production would become economically unsustainable to such an extent that 20 This will lead to increased costs. In this type of system, each step taken or a sudden, high-pressure event such as a jump occurs. preservation of structural integrity against impacts that may occur during movements This is of critical importance. Under such dynamic loads, the system is at risk of damage or 25 The risk of the system losing its functionality is quite high. Furthermore, the system may malfunction during rainy weather conditions or... in situations where the sole comes into contact with a liquid surface, for example, for the purpose of washing shoes If the shoe comes into direct contact with liquid, the system will enter due to liquid entering the shoe. problems such as rusting, contamination or sludge buildup occur in its components These environmental impacts may arise. These types of environmental effects should be adequately considered in system design. 30 is not included. If the system is placed inside a completely enclosed space, Periodic maintenance of parts involving continuous mechanical movement, intervention in case of malfunction. and clear on how to perform the necessary parts replacements and if required. No viable solution is offered. 35 3 5 Technical Problems That the Invention Aims to Solve The shoe is suitable for various ground conditions (gravel, soil, unstabilized ground, uneven surfaces). (such as surface coatings) and foreign objects located on these surfaces It maintains its stability even under irregularities such as stones; especially in ankle sprains. including biomechanical changes that may occur in the musculoskeletal system and spinal structure. to prevent disruptions and ensure the sustainability of the integrity of these systems and aims to facilitate walking. The user's basic physical activities such as walking, running, and jumping, and the system's While stationary, it self-balances and maintains a stable position on horizontal planes. The system generates energy as a result of the movements that occur during its protection. 15 The aim is to store the generated electrical energy by the system and this stored energy is used by external loads and consumers. that is intended.

This chain reaction is observed in the sole of the shoe, both temporally and spatially. This allows for the creation of a gradual pressure distribution that varies. 25 The invention, the shoe (16), is a result of the displacement of the liquid within the system.
