DE102009041785A1 - Measuring center for use in e.g. medical store for measuring size of ball area of hallux valgus in left leg of patient for producing shoe, has passage divided into three compartments in toe area corresponding to attachment parts of strips - Google Patents

Abstract

The measuring center has a large positioning pad with a notch for indicating a foot direction, and a recess in a heel area for correct positioning of feet. Two positioning pads are provided at external sides at a height of balls of legs for determining space requirement of the legs in a posterior shoe. A passage is provided in a lower area for attaching a film and is divided into three compartments in a toe area at an internal side and an external side corresponding to attachment parts of strips. A white-colored line is provided at a lower edge, where the measuring center is transparent.

Description

• 1. Individual foot measurement in the Hellux valgus area.
• 2. The final product, after using my measuring center, the designated order form and the special strips - are shoes that can differ in size and shape in the Hellux valgus area between right and left. Nevertheless, in the heel area they are like "normal industrial shoes".

Hellux valgus (German: Schiefzehe) is the medical term for the pathological obliquity of the big toe, which deviates in the big toe-ground joint (articulatio metatarsophalangealis) to the foot outside edge (laterally).

• 3. Pain in persons with Hellux valgus when wearing normal ready-made shoes, as the required space in the forefoot area is not given, and so pressure points and more severe deformities may occur.
• 4. The measuring center and the necessary strips for the production of Hellux valgus shoes.
• 5. The measuring center can z. B. in medical supply or orthopedic shoemaker used to determine the required shoe width in the ball area. The result of the results is the order of the individual shoe.
• 6. Vorgrgebener sufficient space in the shoes, due to the tweaking of the shanks on the appropriate bars. No more pain from pressing shoes, for people who decide against surgery.
• 7. The customer, who has the foot problem Hellux valgus, can be measured in the medical supply store or the orthopedic shoemaker with the help of my measuring center feet. The result of the measurement indicates the shoe size and the "degree of deformation" in the big toe base joint area and the resulting change in shape on the outside. Based on the measurement, the order form is completed. This is divided into an inside and outside with the areas 1-3 (light-strong) and left and right. So there are many different options that determine the later shape of the shoe. The feet of the customer make the individual shoe. So also size differences between right and left are possible and can be considered. After the choice of the thrust model, the order will be sent to me with the resulting information. According to the information on the order form, the strips are selected and prepared in the required size. (eg, left-most 1 (i.e., the weakest male is used), inside 2 - right inside 2, and outside 1. It will be like a kit, the individual components put together. There is the last basic form in all sizes with the associated attachments for inside and outside and each for right and left. The "Hellux valgus parts" are attached to spigots on the last (the last represents the foot shape of the customer) and the traditional shoe production can begin. The result is a barefoot feel, as the foot is not squeezed further into a slender aching shoe shape, but has the required space from the start.

Claims (2)

Measuring center for measuring the severity of Hellux valgus characterized by the following features: - a large sliding block at the top with indentation, which dictates the foot direction. - to use for the right as well as the left foot), - a recess in the heel area for the correct positioning of the foot, - two sliding blocks on the outsides at the level of the bales (inside and outside) to determine the space required in the later shoe, - a heel in the lower area for the exact application of the foil provided, this is characterized in that a) it is transparent b) it is to be used for right and left, c) the outline shown on it, depending on Hellux valgus severity, the d) the drawing thereon is divided in the toe area on the inside and the outside 3-fold, which corresponds to the attachments of the last and indicates the severity de deformation, e) at its lower edge is a white thickening, which is the exact Positioning in the measuring center allows, f) it is available in all sizes. Moldings for the production of Hellux valgus_shoes with the following features: - Basic shape with different shapes at the top (depending on the fashion eg pointed, angular, round ...) - available in a size scale in half steps (ie eg size 4, 4½, 5, 5½, etc.) - the basic form (ingot blank without the side panels) is cut off on the sides in the toe area and has two spigots both inside and outside, - on these the preformed Hellux valgus parts can be infected, with the following features: a) they are available in three versions from light, medium to strong, b) both for the inside and the outside c) they result in the later shape of the shoe in the toe area d) thanks to which the groin has a harmonious shape, without prolonging the wearing of the shoes, the Hellux valgus pushes out and changes the shape of the shoe, e) indoors they stand for the Hellux valgus and outdoors for the consequent deformation, f) thereby the individual foot shape can be considered, - there is a right and a left last, - it can be used for right and left different last sizes.
