Definitions

  • the invention relates to the manufacture of moulded footwear in particular to waterproof footwear of which the upper portion and bottom thereof, upon which the foot rests, are integrally moulded.
  • the invention provides a waterproof article of footwear comprising an upper portion having integrally moulded sides and bottom and a sole portion attached to the upper portion.
  • the shaping of the upper and sole portions is complementary to provide a unitary fit therebetween and the sloping of the upper portion includes bottom and side contouring to provide support for preselected areas of the foot.
  • the invention further provides a method for making the aforesaid article of footwear whereby side and bottom elements are integrally moulded using a thermoplastic material to form an upper portion, a sole portion is moulded and the two portions are attached together.
  • the moulding of the upper and sole portions is such that the shaping of the same is as described above.
  • the said moulding is by means of injection moulding whereby the upper and sole portions are produced one following the other such that the portions become moulded together.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of an article of footwear in accordance with the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view of the article of Figure 1 taken at section 2-2 thereof.
  • the waterproof article of footwear 10 of the invention comprises an upper portion 20 and a sole portion 30 attached thereto.
  • the thermoplastic upper portion 20 is, firstly, integrally moulded as a single unit without need for seams or joins (which can limit the ability of the article to be made waterproof) .
  • the thermoplastic sole portion 30 is, secondly, moulded so that the two portions 20, 30 become moulded together once the portions have
  • the upper 20 and sole 30 portions are shaped in complementary form to provide a unitary fit when they are moulded together according to the foregoing.
  • the upper portion 20 and, therefore, the sole portion 30
  • FIG. 10 is shaped so as to include bottom and side contouring to provide support for selected areas of the foot, for example as in the article of Figure 1 which includes contouring in the area of the ball of the foot (C) , the arch of the foot (B) and the heel base (A) .
  • This contouring provides
  • the bottom 35 of the sole portion 30 preferably includes certain desirable features forming part of the
  • the sole portion 30 preferably also includes a rigid bar 50 such as a metal plate within the area of the sole between the heel (A) and arch (B). locations thereof to, primarily,
  • the thickness and shaping of the walls 55 of the upper portion 20 are not uniform according to the ⁇ prior art but, . rather, vary according to a predetermined shaping (the
  • thermoplastic material used for the upper portion 20 is less rigid, when moulded than that used for the sole portion 30 so that the upper portion provides an appropriate degree of flexibility to the foot and legs of the user, upon wear, and the sole portion provides support, protection, durability and strength.
  • the article of footwear of the invention is produced by means of the conventional injection moulding technique incorporating moulding apparatus.
  • the apparatus provides for two thermoplastic injection steps, one to produce the upper portion 20 and another to produce the sole portion 30, one following the other, (in selected order) such that the portions thereby become moulded together.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une chaussure étanche et un procédé pour sa fabrication. La chaussure comprend une partie supérieure ayant des côtés et un fond moulés intégralement et une partie semelle fixée à ladite partie supérieure. Le formage de la partie supérieur et de la partie semelle est complémentaire de manière à procurer une liaison unitaire entre les deux parties et il comprend le contournage du fond et des côtés de manière à fournir des supports pour des zones présélectionnées du pied. Le contournage de la partie supérieure et de la partie semelle produit une chaussure qui est en même temps étanche et confortable sans qu'il soit nécessaire de rajouter une forme intérieure au produit moulé pour obtenir un support pour le pied.
