Abstract

The invention relates to an article of footwear having a removable insole. The insole has nubs and magnetic metal parts on its upper surface for massaging the foot reflex zones. Snap fasteners fasten the insole to the sole. Each snap fastener has an upper part mounted on the lower surface of the insole opposite the magnetic metal part, and a lower part mounted on the sole.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Schuhwerk mit herausnehmbarer Einlagesohle mit der Fußmassage dienenden Noppen. Ein solches Schuhwerk ist beispielsweise in der EP-A 0 180 600 beschrieben. Die lose Einlagesohle ist dabei mit einer Vielzahl von unterschiedlichen 1-12 mm hohen Noppen versehen. Auf dem Markt haben sich derartige Einlagesohlen nur wenig durchgesetzt. Hingegen sich Schuhwerke mit noppenartigen, eine Massagewirkung erzielenden Einlagesohlen, die einstückig mit dem Schuhwerk verbunden sind, aus der US-A 4 095 353 bekannt und werden auch viel getragen. Die noppenförmige Struktur der Innensohle erweist sich als eigentlicher Schmutzfänger. Daher werden solche Schuhwerke in ihrer Gesamtheit aus Kunststoff gefertigt um wenigstens waschbar zu sein. Damit ist aber sowohl die Materialwahl als auch die Gestaltung eingeschränkt. Ein vorwiegend geschlo- βenes Schuhwerk oder eines aus einer Kombination von Leder und Kunststoff läßt sich so nicht herstellen.The present invention relates to footwear with a removable insole with nubs serving for foot massage. Such footwear is described for example in EP-A 0 180 600. The loose insole is provided with a variety of different 1-12 mm high knobs. Insoles of this type have only little success on the market. On the other hand, footwear with nub-like insoles which achieve a massage effect and are integrally connected to the footwear are known from US Pat. No. 4,095,353 and are also worn a lot. The pimpled structure of the insole proves to be an actual dirt trap. Therefore, such shoes are made entirely of plastic in order to be at least washable. However, this limits both the choice of materials and the design. A predominantly closed footwear or a combination of leather and plastic cannot be produced in this way.

Die in der EP-A 0 180 600 beschriebene Einlagesohle soll lediglich durch eine umlaufende Randerhöhung der Schuhsohle Halt finden. Demgegenüber zeigt die DE-A 2 845 880 ein Schuhwerk mit Einlagesohle, die mittels einem Klettverschluß mit der Brandsohle des Schuhwerkes verbunden ist. Dies ist für eine relativ weiche Einlagesohle eine praktikable Verbindung. Für relativ starre orthopädische Einlageteile hingegen verwendet man eher Druckknopfverbindungen, wie sie aus der DE-U 1 755 333 und DE-U 8 517 462 bekannt sind.The insole described in EP-A 0 180 600 should only be held by a circumferential edge elevation of the shoe sole. In contrast, DE-A 2 845 880 shows footwear with an insole which is connected to the insole of the footwear by means of a Velcro fastener. This is a practical connection for a relatively soft insole. For relatively rigid orthopedic insert parts, on the other hand, push-button connections are used, as are known from DE-U 1 755 333 and DE-U 8 517 462.

Schließlich sind aus der GB-A 1 560 887 auch Schuheinlagen mit darin befestigten Magnete bekannt, die eine therapeutische Wirkung haben sollen.Finally, GB-A 1 560 887 also discloses shoe inserts with magnets attached therein, which are said to have a therapeutic effect.

Es ist nunmehr die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Einlagesohle der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die mit magnetischen Metallteilen versehen sind. Diese Aufgabe löst ein Schuhwerk mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1.It is now the object of the present invention to provide an insole of the type mentioned, which are provided with magnetic metal parts. This object is achieved by footwear with the features of claim 1.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Druckknopfteile wird die Flexibiltät der relativ weichen Einlagesohle durchgehend gewährt, mit Ausnahme an jenen Stellen, an denen die magnetischen Metallteile angeordnet sind und eine hohe Festigkeit erwünscht ist. In den Zeichnungen ist eine beispielsweise Ausführung der Einlagesohle eines erfindungsgemäßen Schuhwerkes dargestellt.The arrangement of the push-button parts according to the invention ensures the flexibility of the relatively soft insole throughout, with the exception of those places where the magnetic metal parts are arranged and high strength is desired. An example embodiment of the insole of a footwear according to the invention is shown in the drawings.

Es zeigt:

  • Figur 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Einlagesohle, die halb in ein Schuhwerk eingelegt ist,
  • Figur 2 eine Ansicht der Einlagesohle von unten und
  • Figur 3 eine Querschnitt durch die Einlagesohle, einen Druckknopf und die Schuhwerksohle.
It shows:
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an insole that is half-inserted into a shoe,
  • Figure 2 is a view of the insole from below and
  • Figure 3 shows a cross section through the insole, a push button and the footwear sole.

Die Figur 1 zeigt alle erfindungswesentlichen Merkmale auf einen Blick. Auf der Oberseite der Einlagesohle 1 sind die Noppen 2 und eine magnetische Metalleinlage 3 zur Massage eines der vier Hauptpunkte der Fußreflexzonen erkennbar. Die Unterseite zeigt die Anordnung der Druckknopfteile 5, die hier erfindungsgemäß den magnetischen Metalleinlagen gegenüberliegen. Das Gegenstück 6 zum Druckknopfteil 5 ist eingelassen in der Sohle 7 des Schuhwerks erkennbar. Mittels vier solcher speziell angeordneter Druckknöpfe läßt sich die Einlagesohle sehr einfach herausnehmen und nach erfolgter Reinigung wieder einsetzen. Der Reinigung in einer Waschmaschine steht nichts mehr im Wege. Da Schuhe mit solchen Sohlen vor allem bei Berufsleuten beliebt sind, die während ihrer Arbeitszeit nicht ins Freie gehen, sind besonders offene und halboffene Schuhe zur Kombination mit den erfindungsgemäßen Einlagesohlen vorgesehen.Figure 1 shows all the features essential to the invention at a glance. The knobs 2 and a magnetic metal insert 3 for massaging one of the four main points of the foot reflex zones can be seen on the top of the insole 1. The underside shows the arrangement of the push-button parts 5, which according to the invention lie opposite the magnetic metal inserts. The counterpart 6 to the push button part 5 can be seen embedded in the sole 7 of the footwear. By means of four such specially arranged push buttons, the insole can be easily removed and reinserted after cleaning. Nothing stands in the way of cleaning in a washing machine. Since shoes with such soles are particularly popular with professionals who do not go outdoors during their working hours, particularly open and semi-open shoes are provided for combination with the insoles according to the invention.

Figur zeigt einen solchen Schuh, bei dem das Fersenband 8 ausserdem ebenfalls mit Druckknöpfen befestigt ist. Deshalb kann ein solches Schuhmodell als offener wie auch halboffener Schuh verwendet werden. Damit der Schuh für möglichst viele Fussformen optimal anpassbar ist, verfügt er über eine speziell weit nach vorne zur Schuhspitze hin geschnittene Einstiegöffnung. Diese wird durch eine lange Lasche 10 abgedeckt und mit den Verschlusslaschen II mittels Klettverschlüssen verschlossen. Diese Art von Verschluss erlaubt die stufenlose Verstellbarkeit für verschiedene Risthöhen und gewährleistet daher für die allermeisten Füsse, selbst geschwollene, einen vorzüglichen Passitz.Figure shows such a shoe, in which the heel strap 8 is also fastened with snaps. Therefore, such a shoe model can be used as an open as well as a half-open shoe. So that the shoe can be optimally adjusted for as many foot shapes as possible, it has a specially cut entry opening that is cut far to the front of the shoe. This is covered by a long tab 10 and closed with the closure tabs II by means of Velcro fasteners. This type of closure allows the stepless adjustability for different instep heights and therefore ensures an excellent fit for most feet, even swollen ones.

In Figur 2 ist die Einlagesohle in einer Ansicht von unten dargestellt. Wichtig ist hier die Anordnung der Druckknopfteile, welche erfindungsgemäss auf die vier Hauptpunkte 12,13,14 und 15 der Fussreflexzonen verteilt sind. Dadurch wird die Wirkung der magnetischen Metalleinlagen auf der jeweils gegenüberliegenden Seite noch verstärkt und andererseits gewinnt die Einlagesohle durch diese Verteilung der Befestigungspunkte einen guten Halt. Da die Einlagesohle aus Gummi gefertigt ist, lässt sich zu deren Entfernung leicht mit dem Finger unter die Sohle fahren und die Druckknopfverbindungen lösen. Die weite Oeffnung im Obermaterial gewährleistet zudem eine gute Zugänglichkeit an den Druckknopf 15 im Zehenbereich. Den hier aufgeführten vier Massagepunkten werden folgende Stimulationswirkungen zugeschrieben: Punkt 12 ist dem Hormonhaushalt und der Vitalität zugeteilt, Punkt 13 der Wirbelsäule, Punkt 14 den inneren Organen wie Bauchspeicheldrüse, Magen, Darm, Leber, Nieren usw. und schliesslich dem Punkt 15 der Kopf, insbesondere Augen und Gehör.In Figure 2, the insole is shown in a view from below. What is important here is the arrangement of the push-button parts, which according to the invention are distributed over the four main points 12, 13, 14 and 15 of the foot reflex zones. This increases the effect of the magnetic metal inserts on the opposite side, and on the other hand the insole gains a good hold due to this distribution of the fastening points. Since the insole is made of rubber, you can easily remove it with your finger under the sole and loosen the push-button connections. The wide opening in the upper material also ensures good access to the push button 15 in the toe area. The four stimulation effects listed here are attributed to the following stimulation effects: point 12 is assigned to the hormonal balance and vitality, point 13 to the spine, point 14 to the internal organs such as the pancreas, stomach, intestine, liver, kidneys etc. and finally point 15 to the head, especially eyes and hearing.

In der Figur 3 ist anhand eines Querschnittes durch einen Druckknopf seine Anordnung gezeigt. Der eine Druckknopfteil 5 ist an der Unterseite der Einlagesohle I befestigt. Dies kann zum Beispiel durch kaschieren oder schweissen erfolgen. Deutlich sind hier auch die Noppen 2 und die magnetische Metalleinlage 3 erkennbar. Das Gegenstück 6 zum Druckknopfteil 5 ist in der Sohle 7 des Schuhwerkes eingelassen, damit die Einlagesohle auch an diesen Befestigungspunkten eben auf der Sohle 7 aufliegt. Die Druckknöpfe können aus beliebigem geeigneten Material wie Metall oder Kunststoff gefertigt sein. Ein wesentlicher Vorteil der Erfindung gegenüber bisher bekannten einschlägigen Schuhen besteht in der Kombinationsmöglichkeit von anerkannt durch die Fussreflexzonen stimulierend wirkende Einlagesohlen mit einem praktischen und gefälligen Schuhoberteil, ohne dabei Abstriche bei der Pflegeleichtigkeit hinnehmen zu müssen. Im Gegenteil, es gelangt nur noch der Teil in die Waschmaschine, der es wirklich nötig hat.In FIG. 3, its arrangement is shown on the basis of a cross section through a push button. One push button part 5 is attached to the underside of the insole I. This can be done, for example, by lamination or welding. The knobs 2 and the magnetic metal insert 3 are also clearly visible here. The counterpart 6 to the push-button part 5 is embedded in the sole 7 of the footwear, so that the insole also lies on the sole 7 at these fastening points. The push buttons can be made of any suitable material such as metal or plastic. A major advantage of the invention over previously known relevant shoes hen there is the possibility of combining insoles that have a stimulating effect due to the foot reflex zones with a practical and pleasing upper part of the shoe without having to sacrifice ease of care. On the contrary, only the part that really needs it gets into the washing machine.
