Definitions

  • the invention relates to a heel bed with a shell adjoining it at the edge and a cushion made of silicone rubber, which is used to support the heel spur and is embedded in the heel bed, the elasticity of which is greater than that of the material of the heel bed.
  • Heel cushions are known in various designs.
  • the supply of a heel cushion to the rear foot serves to compensate for differences in leg length, to cushion when walking, to absorb maximum shock loads and the like.
  • Heel cushions made of silicone rubber have proven particularly useful because this material is not compressible, but is nonetheless flexible. With regard to their flexibility, silicone rubbers can be easily adjusted to the respective requirements and are also easy to mold.
  • Conventional heel cushions consist entirely of silicone rubber with the same material settings. This allows the pressure distribution on the rear foot to be largely evened out. However, the pressure is usually higher in the area of the heel spur. This can have a negative effect, especially if the heel or heel spurs are misaligned.
  • a heel bed is also known from DE-U 87 00 681, as explained at the beginning.
  • the object of the invention is to improve a heel cushion of the type described in the introduction so that no undesirably high pressure loads occur in the area of the heel spur.
  • the cushion forms an area serving only to support the heel spur, and the heel bed and this area as a whole consist of silicone rubber with different hardness settings.
  • the softer area can be arranged in the center or off-center on the heel bed.
  • the softer region is preferably circular.
  • the heel bed itself can have the usual wedge shape and can also be designed as a so-called pronation cushion with an external elevation or as a supination cushion with an internal elevation.
  • the softer set area leads in any case to a lower pressure load under the heel spur and thus to an equalization of the pressure load of the rear foot as a whole.
  • the underside of the heel bed consists consistently of the harder silicone rubber and if the softer silicone rubber is embedded in the harder silicone rubber.
  • the heel cushion shown has a heel bed 1 and a shell 2 adjoining it on the edge, which has its greatest height in the region of the heel and becomes lower towards the front end of the heel bed 1.
  • the heel cushion is made of a silicone rubber, the hardness of which is adjusted according to the circumstances.
  • the underside of the heel bed 1 is made of this silicone rubber throughout.
  • a circular area 3 made of a softer silicone rubber is embedded off-center. This area 3 is arranged so that it is located below the heel spur, so that the pressure load on the rear foot below the heel spur is less and the pressure load on the rest of the rear foot is adjusted.
