Definitions
- the present invention concerns a sole for therapeutic, sport and free time shoes, consisting in an air tube with elastic distancing elements.
- the sole for therapeutic, sport and free time shoes consisting in an air tube provided with elastic distancing elements like small pistons out of plastic material or rubber or similar, eventually of different elastic resistance, placed along the whole foot resting surface whereby said surface allows, even ' if the foot maintains, in the biped position thereof, the same features of the known, similar shoes, due to the increased elasticity thereof, a constant resting in the load displacement, reducing the restraining resistance in those points where the metatarsi and footfinger pathologies are present, due to the full and hollow spaces that are obtained by the space displacement of the load.
- the sole according to the present invention shortens the time for the balance research with a more immediate space alignment of the limb, thus reducing the stress of the lower/upper astragalus, of the knee, of the hip, of the relative ligaments and of the concerned muscles' bands.
- the sole for use in orthopaedy and sport is provided with inner separation baffles for the separation of the air tube in a plurality of sectors, being in turn eventually filled up, by injection, with expanded material or PVC or siliconic materials or other, so as to realize a differenced support for the different points of the foot, correcting the defects.
- the figures show a sole for therapeutic, sport and free time shoes, mainly comprising a distribution of small cylindrical pistons 1 that will maintain separated the upper layer 2 for the resting of the foot, from the lower layer 3, that is the bottom or tread, to which the circular surfaces are fixed by construction or sticking, so as to realize an elastically deformable air tube, according to the stresses transmitted by the different small pistons.
- the air present between the structures of the layers 2 and 3 of the small pistons 1 may eventually circulate towards the lateral holes 4, being outwardly open.
- Said small pistons 1 are preferrably out of elastic material with full structure but, in possible variants, said pistons may also show a hollow structure, full of air or also inlet and outlet air circulation holes.
- the diameter and therefore the mechanical resistance and the elasticity of the small pistons 1 may be constant along the whole surface of the sole or, preferrably, the dimensions of said pistons may be different according to the different support needs of the different points of the foot.
- said small pistons 1 may also be out of different materials of different hardness.
- a further feature of the present invention consists in the presence, neraby the heel, of the small pistons in a concentrate disposition 5, which allows to the heel to remain on axis exactly placing it through the centralized elasticity thereof.
- the small elastic pistons 2 are replaced, for the same purpose, with bands 6, complete or eventually fractioned, or non parallel, but always elastic because out of rubber, para rubber, plastic materials and similar, and always appropriate for the realization of the air tube between the layers 2 and 3.
- the variant for use in orthopaedy and sport provides an air tube devided in sectors by separation baffles for the formation of separated tubes, made elastic by small pistons 1 and/or bands 6, with one or more aeration holes 4 for each tube that may also be used for the immission of expanded material or PVC or siliconic ma- teri.al in those points suggested by the orthopaedist.
- the present invention may be realized by means of a small sole provided with distancc- ing elements that may be inserted, when it is needed, in a hollow shoe and there it may be cold-sticked in the upper inner part of the tread, thus obtaining the structure of the air tube, according to the aim set forth.
