Definitions

  • the invention relates to a footbed of a shoe in the form of a separate footbed insert or a footbed part connected to a shoe.
  • DE-U-8 521 944 describes a footbed of this type, in which a plurality of parallel, groove-shaped depressions extending transversely to the longitudinal direction of the foot are provided below the forefoot, between which resilient transverse ribs inclined towards the heel remain free, the ones in the course of the undisturbed Vertex areas lying on the surface have a rounded profile.
  • the invention has set itself the goal of designing a foot so that, contrary to the teaching of DE-U-58 21 944, there is no essentially identical support over a larger area of the sole of the foot, but rather a foot bed that corresponds to the teaching of the other three documents specifically enables the influencing and stimulation of very few, preferably only a single, local area of the sole of a person in the case of individual customization, overexcitation being avoided.
  • the invention is based on the generally known idea that an organ can be assigned to each sub-area of the sole of a person's foot, this fact is used, for example, by the foot zone reflex massage.
  • the aim is to make one as unhindered as possible To enable the flow of life energy, so as to constantly achieve optimal organ circulation and thus to promote the flow of life energy.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to design a footbed in such a way that local areas of the sole of the foot are deliberately stimulated in a continuous manner.
  • the footbed of a shoe according to the invention thus essentially has a smooth surface that supports the sole of the foot in an even and unstructured manner. Only on a small (in comparison to the total surface area) part of the footbed is the local recess machined, which for example has a maximum transverse dimension of 20 mm, so in a preferably round version essentially has a maximum diameter of 20 mm. This means that it occupies only a small part of the total surface area. This distributes the kinetic energy specifically for natural use.
  • the knob protrudes from the base of the recess to the height of the surface that the surface would have had the surface undisturbed, i.e. without the local recess.
  • the knob tip may protrude slightly above the undisturbed surface, essentially finish with it, or may also lie deeper than it. Due to the arrangement described, a (small area) of the sole of a person's foot remains unsupported, the recess is designed so that due to its softly rounded edge there is a gradual transition from a support to a non-support, as occurs above the base, and one Movement energy build-up prevents or avoids.
  • the base should at most come into contact with the sole of the foot, but not around the knobs. Accordingly, it is lowered sufficiently far from the undisturbed surface.
  • the support around the knob is only on the top of the knob itself.
  • a predetermined point or a small area of the sole of a person's foot can be influenced in terms of pressure, namely stimulation or positive motivation via main nerve massage, so the area of the sole of the foot that is addressed receives essentially constant pressure when standing be solved in that the footbed has at least one trough-shaped and recessed compared to the (undisturbed) surface, local recess, which opens out along its entire edge rounded into the surface, within this edge has a base lying a few millimeters lower than the undisturbed surface and is significantly smaller in area than the total area of the surface, and that in the central region of the base a knob protrudes, the free tip of which is essentially the course of the (undisturbed) surface.
  • the footbed of a shoe according to the invention thus essentially has a smooth surface that supports the sole of the foot in an even and unstructured manner. Only on a small (in comparison to the total surface area) part of the footbed is the local recess machined, which for example has a maximum transverse dimension of 20 mm, so in a preferably round version essentially has a maximum diameter of 20 mm. This means that it occupies only a small part of the total surface area. This distributes the kinetic energy specifically for natural use.
  • the knob protrudes from the base of the recess to the height of the surface that the surface would have had the surface undisturbed, i.e. without the local recess.
  • the knob tip may protrude slightly above the undisturbed surface, essentially finish with it, or may also lie deeper than it. Due to the arrangement described, a (small area) of the sole of a person's foot remains unsupported, the recess is designed so that, due to its softly rounded edge, there is a gradual transition from a support to a non-support, as occurs above the base, and one Movement energy build-up prevents or avoids.
  • the base should at most come into contact with the sole of the foot, but not around the knobs. Accordingly, it is lowered sufficiently far from the undisturbed surface.
  • the support around the knob is only on the top of the knob itself.
  • a predetermined point or a small area of the sole of a person's foot can be influenced in terms of pressure, namely stimulation or positive motivation via main nerve massage, so the area of the sole of the foot that is addressed receives essentially constant pressure when standing or alarmed individually and in a mentality-specific manner to change posture and thus avoid energy congestion and a constantly increasing and decreasing pressure when walking or running.
  • the stimulation or motivation is transferred to the specific nerve pathways such as meridians and thus to the organs connected to them, thus continuously creating the relationship between tension and relaxation of the musculoskeletal system, muscles, tendons and ligaments.
  • the knob is arranged so that it meets the desired target area of the sole of the foot, which is assigned to the organ to be treated.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to carry out a foot zone reflex massage, such as a corresponding treatment of partial areas of the sole of the foot, without constantly requiring a person performing the desired irritation. Rather, the therapist once determines which essential parts of the sole of the foot are to be stimulated, the footbed is made accordingly, and the stimulation then takes place each time the footwear equipped with the footbed is worn.
  • the knob has a thickness with transverse dimensions of a few millimeters, preferably 4 to 6 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the knob has a round cross-sectional area and corresponding diameter (as indicated).
  • the tip of the knobs can be designed differently and depending on the desired application. It is possible to round off the tips of the knobs, to make them pointed or to provide a flattening. Corresponding transition forms, for example outer rounding and central flattening, are possible.
  • the knob itself can be rigid or resilient, an elasticity in the area of hard rubber is preferred. On the one hand, it has an elasticity in the direction of loading, that is, in the direction of its longitudinal axis, but on the other hand it also has an elasticity transversely thereto, so that it can rebound laterally with respect to its undisturbed longitudinal axis. These two types of elasticity are influenced by the choice of material and the shape of the cross-section (seen in profile). In the case of a preferably designed with one foot Knobs, the lateral elasticity is reduced, the lateral elasticity is higher with an essentially prismatic knobs.
  • the total number of depressions is a maximum of three, and in general only one depression with mostly only one knob is provided per footbed. In principle, however, it is possible to provide two or three knobs per well, but not more.
  • the knobs are preferably integrally connected to the footbed, but this does not rule out a separate design. In particular, it is possible to provide an opening in the area of the base through which a separate knob can be inserted. This version has the advantage that the knobs can be replaced.
  • the knobs preferably have a disk-like foot, which is located below the actual footbed and prevents the knobs projecting from it from tilting sideways.
  • the footbed of a shoe, for example a sandal, according to FIG. 1 is made of a hard rubber-elastic material, in particular a corresponding rubber mixture, and has a smooth surface 20 which is adapted to the shape of the sole of a foot.
  • a local depression 22 is incorporated in a very small area of the total area of this surface 20, which is on all sides of the surface actual surface 20 is bordered. Accordingly, it merges into the (undisturbed) surface along its entire circumference; this takes place in the area of a soft rounding 24, in which the course of the local depression, as can be seen from the sectional images, merges into a base 26 in an essentially S-shaped manner.
  • a knob 28 projects transversely to the direction of the surface 20, it is connected to the base 26 in its foot region and has one Dome 30, which, as shown in FIG. 2, protrudes slightly (1 to 2 mm) from the undisturbed surface 20, but in the other embodiments still to be discussed it is flush with it or lies below the surface 20.
  • the knob is formed in one piece with the footbed. It is round in cross-section and has a diameter of 5 mm. Its tip 30 is completely rounded, that is to say with a radius of 2.5 mm. Below this crest 30 it is prismatic, that is to say cylindrical in the exemplary embodiment shown. Because of the material chosen for the footbed, it has an elasticity in the direction of the surface 20, the so-called transverse elasticity, and an elasticity perpendicular to the surface 20, which means that the tip 30 deflects slightly downward when loaded.
  • the knob is essentially conical, but its tip 30 is rounded. However, this is more pointed, so it has a smaller rounding angle than the crest 30 in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2. Furthermore, the knob gradually merges into the shape of the base 26 in its foot region, so that no sharp inner corners occur as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2 .
  • the knob in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3 has a lower transverse elasticity than in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2.
  • the knob 28 has a dome in Shape of a circular area, the contact area with the sole of the foot is therefore larger than in the previously discussed exemplary embodiments.
  • the transition between the support surface of the sole of the foot caused by the crest and the surrounding, unsupported surface is also abrupt. This is advantageous for certain therapies.
  • the knob 30 in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 4 lies in the undisturbed surface 20, while in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3 the knuckle 30 lies slightly (maximum 1 to 2 mm) below the (undisturbed) surface 20.
  • the knob 28 has a cone-like tip 30, so that there is even more selective support than in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3.
  • the footbed here consists of a main part 32, which forms the local depression 22 in the form previously described.
  • a hole 34 is provided in the base 26 of the local depression 22. Underneath and around the hole 34 there is a recess 36 in the main part 32.
  • the knob 28 is of a similar design to that in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2, its outer diameter is adapted to the inner diameter of the hole 34. Its foot area is designed as a disk 38, the diameter and height of which is adapted to the recess 36.
  • Fig. 7 shows the layered structure of the main part 32.
  • This consists of a shaping, about 2 to 3 mm thick base layer 40 made of a stiff, but somewhat flexible material, an upholstery 42 and a top-closing leather layer 44 made of roughened, thin Suede.
  • the base layer 40 is essentially anatomically designed to match the foot, but is flatter than in the case of a real anatomical replica, so in particular transverse arches and longitudinal arches are less protruding than would be the case with a real anatomical shape.
  • the base layer 40 has essentially constant material thickness over its entire surface, the padding 42, however, as shown in FIG. 7, has different thickness.
  • the poster 42 is resilient and permanently deformable, that is elastic and plastic.
  • the elasticity is like that chosen that a cushioning and pressure distribution is achieved, due to the deformability, the padding 42 adapts individually to a foot, the padding 42 is compressed in areas in which the sole of the foot exerts greater pressure on it than in other areas and retains the same form once communicated after wearing for several hours essentially.
  • a bed for the foot is thus formed, this bed is individually adapted, but is held flatter than it would be a neutrally anatomically shaped footbed.
  • the leather layer forming the surface of the main part 32 is made of dull, roughened suede with a low material thickness, for example 0.5 mm. It causes a slight rubbing of the foot, which leads to blood circulation, it is both warm and warm, it motivates the entire sole of the foot.
  • a knob 28 protrudes from the previously described embodiment.
  • a new, unused footbed (as shown in FIG. 7)
  • it projects with its upper, free end area approximately into the height of the leather layer 44 and is located laterally all around in the area of the padding 42 yields permanently, as described, but the knob 28 is, however, much harder, it preferably has hard rubber elasticity, it therefore comes with its free end in front of the leather layer 44, so that now the stimulation according to the invention or positive motivation of a local area of the sole of the foot can take place.
  • an elastic cushion in the heel area, which gently tapers all around at its side edges and without a noticeable transition into the surface of the main part 32, projects gently upwards in its central area, so that when a foot is placed on it Footbed the heel first contact with this pillow receives the tread energy to dampen to be able to use it specifically.
  • the cushion is soft and gives way, its material is significantly softer than that of the padding 42.
  • the entire footbed is preferably made of natural material.
