Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to shoe soles, and more particularly to a shoe sole structure for effecting an increased exercise to the wearer of a shoe with the shoe sole as well as the high shock-absorbency.
  • the shoes have been provided with such a construction that they protect the foot of the wearers in their walking activities while serving as a means for absorbing the grounding shocks of the foot.
  • Conventional shoes generally have flat soles with or without the heels protruding from the backward area of the soles.
  • the walker with such shoes will make the steps on the ground initially with the sole of the forward shoe at its rear area which delivers the full shocks from the ground to the walker's foot without any cushioning effect of the front foot region and thus the positive effect of exercising the walker which is disadvantageous.
  • An object of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks by providing a shoe sole with novel structure.
  • the present invention has its primary object to provide an improved sole structure for being used with the shoes to enhance the amount of the exercise and thus the health of the wearer of the shoes.
  • Another object of the present invention is to improve the shock-absorbency of the shoe sole while giving the better feelings of wearing the shoes by providing a shoe sole having a means for stimulating certain areas of the wearer's soles, the stimulating means also absorbing shocks from the walks.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a means for resisting the droops of the recessed heel of the shoe sole even after a longtime use of the shoe sole.
  • a shoe sole with a recess heel for being used with the shoes to enhance the amount of the exercise and the health of the wearer of the shoes with relatively short distance of walking
  • the shoe sole comprises a rear sole section generally coextending with the area of the recess heel, a forward sole section, an intermediate sole section disposed between the forward and rear sole sections and protruded giving a stepped bottom to the shoe sole, a wedge-shaped cushioning means inserted and held in the intermediate sole section, and a return panel support built in at least the rear sole section to give a force of restitution to the sole at the area covering the rear and intermediate sole sections.
  • the forward sole section has at its rear side a plurality of grip means to tighten the cushioning means in the shoe sole and to prevent the slippage of the shoes in the walking activity; and the cushioning means includes a space formed therein; and the return panel support comprises a panel stepped in conformity to the stepped bottom of the shoe sole, the panel including a plurality of contoured protrusions and openings to have an enforcement and a flexibility.
  • the shoe sole 1 is shown with its bottom up to illustrate the general shape wherein the area corresponding to the heel is removed or recessed to enhance the amount of the exercise and the health of the wearer of the shoes (not shown) with the shoe soles 1 even with short distance of walking by having the weight of the wearer in walking fall on the forward soles of the wearer's foot.
  • the shoe sole 1 generally comprises a rear sole section 2 coextending with the recessed heel area or recess heel, which is known; a forward sole section 3 forming the grounding bottom of the shoe sole 1; and an intermediate sole section 4 between the forward and rear sole sections 3 and 2.
  • the intermediate sole sections 4 may have a slit transversing the width of the shoe sole 1 and extending to a part of the forward sole section 3.
  • a wedge-shaped cushion member 5 is inserted, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • a return panel support 6 is buried in the rear sole section 2 to strengthen the returning power of the recess heel against the tendency of its depression by the user, as shown partially in FIG. 2 and sectionally in FIG. 3.
  • the forward sole section 3 has at its rear side two or more grip members 9 to prevent the possible slippages of the shoes in the walking activity and also to tighten the cushion member in the shoe sole 1.
  • the cushion member 5 may be made of a synthetic resin or natural rubber which will absorb the grounding shocks during walking or it may be made of other shock-absorbing material. Also, the cushion member 5 includes a space 10 to increase the cushioning effect. The space 10 may be closed or opened at one side of the cushion member 5.
  • the return panel support 6 in the rear sole section 2 is preferably conformed to the bottom of the shoe sole which is best shown in FIG. 3 as bends of the intermediate sole section 4 between the forward and rear sole sections. Further, the return panel support 6 may be provided by a stepped panel which has a variety of contoured protrusions 7 to enforce the support 6 and a plurality of openings 8 in various diameters to give a flexibilty according to the needs of the individual designs of the shoes.
  • the shoe soles 1 are first attached to the shoes such as sports shoes to be worn by a wearer who will then moves with only the forward sole section 3 of the shoe sole 1 grounded at each step maintaining the rear sole section 2 at a height from the ground, thereby having the weight of the wearer fall on the forward sole of the wearer.
  • Walking in this state gives the wearer the equal effect of climbing a slope in the order of 15° or stairs.
  • five minutes of use of such shoe sole correspond to about fifty minutes of walking with common flat soled shoes which helps to enhance the wearer's health with the continued exercising within short time.
  • the unique cushion member 5 between the forward and rear sole sections 3 and 2 will further absorb the residual shocks from the ground before their transmission to the foot of the wearer's body in order to protect it while stimulating the arches of the wearer's foot.
  • Such stimulation virtually becomes a series of acupuncturing pressures on the specific region of the human foot sole which strengthen the associated Five Vital Organs of lung, heart, spleen, kidney and liver.
  • the return panel support 6 buried in the rear shoe sole 2 prevents the drooping of the recess heal formed in the region of the rear shoe sole 2 assuring the constant coziness of wearing the associated shoes.
  • the exercising shoe sole according to the present invention functions to actively exercise its wearers in walking to enhance their health, increases the shock-absorbency improving the coziness of wearing the associated shoes, and prolongs the life of the shoe sole in its original shape.
