DE202010014224U1 - Cooling shoe: Cooling effect with balls - Google Patents

Abstract

Shoes with cooling effect
characterized,
that the cooling principle, according to the known ball seat covers for car seats.
Example:
In the simplest case comes a wooden footbed ( 1 ) (eg for clogs with open heel):
In the wood come from above hemispherical milling in which the balls attached, z. B. be glued.
Instead of bullets, other bodies can be used. For example, cones. It is important that sufficient ventilation space is created between these bodies.
If the balls can not be glued to a (wooden) base, the following technique is possible:
As with the ball seat covers, the balls are replaced by bands ( 2 ) held together to a mat. Rubber bands are also possible here.

Description

State of the art

There are airy shoes, z. B. Flip Flop, which ventilate the Fußsole when walking. These shoes have the disadvantage that they sit less firmly on the foot.

There are car seat covers made of balls, in which the balls with the spaces cause ventilation, or cooling, of the back. Such an ingenious and simple ventilation concept does not yet exist with shoes.

Summary

In this utility model are several ways to realize a cooling shoe for hot days.

The wearer of a "cooling shoe" experiences a pleasant coolness, even on the sole of the foot. This is generated by a ventilation concept and evaporative cooling of the sweat.

In contrast to the airy shoes from the cool shoe is also implemented in a fixed and possibly closed version.

Claims (4)

Shoes with a cooling effect, characterized in that the cooling principle, according to the known ball seat covers for car seats. Example: In the simplest case, a wooden footbed ( 1 ) are used (eg for clogs with an open heel): In the wood come from above hemispherical milling in which the balls attached, z. B. be glued. Instead of bullets, other bodies can be used. For example, cones. It is important that sufficient ventilation space is created between these bodies. If the balls can not be glued to a (wooden) surface, the following technique is possible: As with the ball seat covers, the balls are replaced by bands ( 2 ) held together to a mat. Rubber bands are also possible here. Shoes with a cooling effect according to claim 1. characterized, that in addition to the footbed, a large part of the shoe consists of ball-like bodies z. B. a "ball sandal", in which instead of leather straps ball chains hold together the shoe with the back of the foot. If a large part of the back of the foot to be covered, so here is a ball mat and the resulting good ventilation and cooling is possible. Also conceivable would be a shoe brine of hemispheres, each directed with the flat surface to the ground. Shoes with cooling effect characterized, that footbed and shoe sole are provided with pierced ventilation channels. This variant is a rather theoretical idea and should be mentioned for completeness. This variant can also be combined with one of the preceding claims. Shoes with cooling effect according to one of the preceding claims, characterized, that an art effect is added to the cooling effect. In particular, the balls mentioned in the preceding claims offer to be colored. z. For example, the balls of the footbed may be made of different colors to give a pattern or mosaic.
