Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Überprüfen der gewählten Längengröße eines Fußbekleidungsstückes, insbesondere eines Schuhes auf Paßgenauigkeit, mit zumindest einer im Zehenbereich eines in den Schuh eingeführten Fußes angeordneten Anschlageinrichtung, welche einen Anschlag dokumentierende Signalelemente hat.The invention relates to a device for checking the selected length size of an article of footwear, in particular a shoe on registration, with at least one arranged in the toe area of an inserted into the shoe foot stop device, which has a stop documenting signaling elements.

Für das Wohlbefinden eines Trägers von Fußbekleidungsstücken, insbesondere von Schuhen oder Stiefeln, ist es notwendig, daß die Fußbekleidungsstücke an seine Fußgröße angepaßt sind. Neben der Fußweite kommt dabei insbesondere die Fußlänge in Betracht.For the comfort of a wearer of footwear, in particular footwear or boots, it is necessary that the footwear be adapted to his foot size. In addition to the foot is here in particular the foot length into consideration.

Häufig werden Fußbekleidungsstücke, insbesondere Schuhe, getragen, deren Länge nicht optimal an die Länge des Fußes angepaßt ist. Insbesondere bei Kindern kommt es dabei aufgrund des Wachstums vor, daß Schuhe getragen werden, die zu klein sind. Bei erwachsenen Personen werden häufig falsche Schuhe dann getragen, wenn immer Schuhe nach der gleichen Konfektionsgröße gekauft werden, diese aufgrund verschiedener Hersteller und bei diesen auftretenden Toleranzen aber verschieden groß ausfallen.Frequently, footwear, especially shoes, worn, whose length is not optimally adapted to the length of the foot. Especially in children, it is due to the growth that shoes are worn, which are too small. In adult people are often worn shoes then always when shoes are bought according to the same clothing size, but these vary due to different manufacturers and tolerances occurring in these different sizes.

Insbesondere für Kinder ist es daher notwendig, die richtige Angepaßtheit der getragenen Schuhe an die Länge der Füße regelmäßig zu kontrollieren. Dies erfolgt meistens durch Befragen des Kindes, dieses kann aber manchmal nicht objektiv Auskunft geben. Das Aufzeichnen von Füßen auf ein Blatt Papier zeigt die Füße im statischen Zustand. Auf das tatsächliche Verhalten des Fußes innerhalb eines Fußes beim Gehen, also im dynamischen Zustand, kann nur schwer rückgeschlossen werden. Im Ergebnis tragen viele Menschen daher Schuhe mit nicht passenden Schuhgrößen.Especially for children, it is therefore necessary to regularly check the correct fit of the worn shoes to the length of the feet. This is usually done by questioning the child, but sometimes this can not provide objective information. The recording of feet on a sheet of paper shows the feet in a static state. The actual behavior of the foot within a foot while walking, that is, in the dynamic state, is difficult to deduce. As a result, many people wear shoes with inappropriate shoe sizes.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Vorrichtungen mit Anschlageinrichtungen bzw. Anzeigeeinrichtungen bekannt, die jeweils in einem Schuh eingebaut sind. So ist aus der GB 655188 das Einbringen von Farbpartikeln in einen vorderen Bereich einer Schuhsohle bekannt. Die Partikel werden dann ausgeschüttet, wenn der Fuß bis in einen vordersten Bereich der Schuhsohle vorragt und somit ein Anstoßen an der Decksohle des Schuhs droht. Auch in der DE 94 08 879 U1 , DE 197 27 201 A1 und US 5,914,659 sind jeweils gattungsgemäße Vorrichtungen gezeigt, die in Schuhe eingebaut sind.From the prior art devices with stop devices or display devices are known, which are each installed in a shoe. So is out of the GB 655188 the introduction of color particles in a front region of a shoe sole known. The particles are then released when the foot protrudes into a frontmost area of the shoe sole and thus threatens to bump against the insole of the shoe. Also in the DE 94 08 879 U1 . DE 197 27 201 A1 and US 5,914,659 each generic devices are shown, which are installed in shoes.

Die in diesen Druckschriften vorgeschlagenen Anzeigevorrichtungen sind somit auf einen Schuh bezogen, sie sind in diesen Schuhen auf umständliche Weise anzuordnen und bei Benutzung in anderen Schuhen gegebenenfalls wieder auszubauen, sofern eine Mehrfachnutzung überhaupt vorgesehen ist.The display devices proposed in these publications are thus based on a shoe, they are to arrange in these shoes in a cumbersome way and, if necessary, to expand again in use in other shoes, if a multiple use is ever provided.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Gattung aufzuzeigen, mit der objektiv und auf einfache Weise festgestellt werden kann, ob das getragene Fußbekleidungsstück die richtige Größe hat.The invention has for its object to provide a device of the type mentioned, with the objectively and easily can be determined whether the worn footwear has the right size.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Anschlageinrichtung nach Art eines Heftpflasters ausgebildet ist, wobei das Heftpflaster einen Mulbereich hat, welchem die Signalelemente zugeordnet sind.This object is inventively achieved in that the stop device is designed in the manner of a sticking plaster, wherein the adhesive plaster has a Mulbereich, which are associated with the signal elements.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wird wie im Stand der Technik dem Zehenbereich eines in den Schuh eingeführten Fußes eine Anschlageinrichtung zugeordnet, die also im dynamischen Zustand des Fußes zur Längenkontrolle eingesetzt wird. Somit wird der Fuß während seines tatsächlichen Angeordnetseins im Schuh überprüft. Das Überprüfen erfolgt durch die vorgesehene Anschlageinrichtung, welche Signalelemente aufweist. Schlägt der Fuß an der Anschlageinrichtung an, wird dieser Anschlag durch Signalelemente dokumentiert. Die Anschlageinrichtung kann nun so im Zehenbereich angeordnet werden, daß ein Anschlag dann auftritt, wenn die Größe des Schuhs nicht mehr optimal auf die Länge des Fußes abgestellt ist.In the device according to the invention as in the prior art to the toe area of an inserted foot into the shoe associated with an anchor device, which is thus used in the dynamic state of the foot for length control. Thus, the foot is checked during its actual assembly in the shoe. The checking is carried out by the provided stop device, which has signal elements. If the foot strikes the stop device, this stop is documented by signal elements. The stop device can now so in Toe area are arranged so that a stop occurs when the size of the shoe is no longer optimally placed on the length of the foot.

Zur konstruktiven Ausbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sieht die Erfindung vor, daß die Anschlageinrichtung nach Art eines Heftpflasters ausgebildet ist, wobei das Heftpflaster einen Mullbereich hat, welchem die Signalelemente zugeordnet sind. Der Mullbereich ist ein beispielsweise wattierter Bereich zwischen Abschnitten, die lediglich dem Festkleben der Anschlageinrichtung an dem Zeh dienen. Die Signalelemente sind innerhalb des Mullbereiches angeordnet, daher wird der Mullbereich in dem Abschnitt des Zehs gebracht, welcher an der Innenseite des Schuhs anstoßen würde. Die selbstklebende Anschlageinrichtung wird somit um den Zeh herum geklebt.For structural design of the device according to the invention, the invention provides that the stop device is designed in the manner of a sticking plaster, wherein the adhesive plaster has a mull area, which are associated with the signal elements. The gauze area is an area, for example wadded, between sections which only serve to adhere the stop device to the toe. The signal elements are located within the gullet area, so the gauze area is placed in the portion of the toe that would abut the inside of the shoe. The self-adhesive stop device is thus glued around the toe.

Nach der Erfindung kann somit vorgesehen sein, daß die Anschlageinrichtung an einem oder mehreren Zehen befestigt ist. Diese Befestigungsart ist insbesondere dazu geeignet, ein einmaliges Überprüfen der richtigen Schuhgröße vorzunehmen. Dieses einmalige Überprüfen kann beispielsweise in Schuhgeschäften, insbesondere Kinderschuhgeschäften, oder auch zu Hause erfolgen. Die Anschlageinrichtung kann dabei zum Beispiel an wenigstens einem Zeh festgeklebt werden, vorzugsweise ist die Anschlageinrichtung dabei selbstklebend.According to the invention can thus be provided that the stopper is attached to one or more toes. This type of attachment is particularly suitable for making a one-time check of the correct shoe size. This one-time check can be done for example in shoe stores, especially children's shoe shops, or at home. The stop device can be glued to at least one toe, for example, preferably the stop device is self-adhesive.

Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann die Anschlageinrichtung auch im Schuh oder in einem Strumpf befestigbar sein. Die Anschlageinrichtung kann beispielsweise in einen Schuh eingeklebt sein und von Zeit zu Zeit aus dem Schuh herausgenommen werden, um zu prüfen, ob an dieser die freien Enden der Zehen angeschlagen haben. In entsprechender Weise kann eine Anordnung in einem Strumpf erfolgen, wobei dann beispielsweise ein stärkeres Anschlagen von Zehen an der Anschlageinrichtung dokumentierbar ist.According to a development of the invention, the stop device can also be fastened in the shoe or in a stocking. The stop device may for example be glued into a shoe and removed from the shoe from time to time to check whether the free ends of the toes have struck at this. In a corresponding manner, an arrangement can take place in a stocking, in which case, for example, a stronger striking of toes on the stop device can be documented.

Dem Mullbereich des Heftpflasters kann auf seiner Außenseite ein festes Abdeckelement zugeordnet sein. Dieses bewirkt bei einem Anstoßen an der Innenwand des Schuhs ein definiertes Auslösen der Anschlageinrichtung. Der durch das Abdeckelement herausgebildete Druckpunkt kann relativ weit oben im Bereich des Fußnagels angeordnet sein. Das feste Abdeckelement ist beispielsweise winkelartig ausgebildet und mit einem Winkelschenkel auf dem Fußnagel befestigt. Der andere Winkelschenkel ist dann vor dem vorderen Ende des Zehs angeordnet.The mull area of the adhesive plaster may be associated with a fixed cover element on its outside. This causes a defined triggering of the stop device when abutting the inner wall of the shoe. The pressure point formed by the cover element can be arranged relatively high in the area of the toenail. The fixed cover is, for example, angular and fixed with an angle leg on the toenail. The other angle leg is then placed in front of the front end of the toe.

Der Mullbereich kann beispielsweise aus einem plastisch verformbaren Material ausgebildet sein. Stößt der Zeh an der Innenseite des Schuhs an, tritt eine Verformung des Mullbereiches auf. Ist diese Verformung plastisch, so bleibt sie auch dann erhalten, wenn der Fuß wieder aus dem Schuh herausgezogen wird. Die Druckstellen sind an der Anschlageinrichtung erkennbar.The mull area can for example be formed of a plastically deformable material. When the toe touches the inside of the shoe, deformation of the gauze area occurs. If this deformation is plastic, then it remains even when the foot is pulled out of the shoe again. The pressure points are recognizable on the stop device.

Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, daß in dem Mullbereich Markierungskörper als Signalelemente eingesetzt sind, welche sich bei einer Druckbelastung bleibend verändern. Die Markierungskörper führen bei einer Druckbelastung zu einer bleibenden Markierung des Mullbereiches. Werden auf mehreren Zehen voneinander unabhängig erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtungen angeordnet, können auch einzelne Zehen hinsichtlich eines Anstoßens an der Innenseite des Schuhes markiert werden. Die Markierungskörper enthalten beispielsweise Farbpartikel, welche bei einer Druckbelastung ausgeschüttet werden. Dieses Ausschütten ist nicht reversibel, wenn der Fuß aus dem Schuh herausgezogen wird. Der Mullbereich einer pflasterartigen Anschlageinrichtung kann zum Beispiel vollständig durchgefärbt sein.Alternatively it can be provided that in the gauze marking body are used as signal elements, which change permanently in a pressure load. The marking bodies lead to a permanent marking of the mull area during a pressure load. If devices according to the invention are arranged independently of one another on several toes, individual toes can also be marked with regard to abutment on the inside of the shoe. The marking bodies contain, for example, color particles which are released during a pressure load. This dumping is not reversible when the foot is pulled out of the shoe. The mull area of a plaster-like stop device can be completely through-dyed, for example.

Bei einer Durchfärbung des Mullbereiches kann durch geeignete Ausgestaltung der dem Zeh zugekehrten Rückseite des Mullbereiches verhindert werden, daß eine Färbung des Zehs eintritt. Im Mullbereich kann dabei Lackmuspapier als Indikator eingesetzt werden, das einen gut erkennbaren Farbumschlag in kräftigen Farben aufweist. Die Farbpartikel können in Form von Farbkapseln, Mikroverkapselungen vorliegen. Ausgeschüttete Farbe kann beispielsweise durch ein saugfähiges Papier aufgenommen werden.In a through-coloring of the mull area can be prevented by appropriate design of the toe facing the back of the mull area that a coloring of the toe occurs. In the gauze area litmus paper can be used as an indicator, which has a well-recognizable color change in bright colors. The color particles may be in the form of color capsules, microencapsules. Spilled paint can be absorbed, for example, by an absorbent paper.

Insbesondere bei einem Einsatz von Lackmuspapier können in Mikroverkapselungen auch saure oder basische Stoffe enthalten sein. Treten diese Stoffe, z.B. eine Säure aus, führt auch dies zur Umfärbung des Lackmuspapiers.In particular with the use of litmus paper, microencapsulations may also contain acidic or basic substances. If these substances, e.g. an acid, this also leads to the color of the litmus paper.

Neben einer Verwendung von Markierungskörper sieht eine Alternative der Erfindung vor, daß die Anschlagrichtung zumindest einen elektrischen Schalter umfaßt. Ein elektrischer Schalter kann bei Anstoßen der Zehen an den Innenwänden des Schuhs geschlossen werden. Ein dadurch hergestellter Stromfluß kann Signalelemente ansteuern. Entsprechende Signalelemente können der Anschlagseinrichtung selbst zugeordnet sein, beispielsweise als Speicher im Schuh oder am Körper für die Aufnahme erfolgter Schaltvorgänge. Es ist aber auch möglich, daß die Signalelemente von der Anschlageinrichtung entfernt angeordnet sind und mit dieser über eine Funkverbindung verknüpft sind. Diese Funkverbindung ist vorzugsweise drahtlos ausgebildet, sie zeigt an, wann der Schalter geschlossen ist. Auf diese Weise können Anschläge der Zehen an den Innenseiten der Schuhe in Echtzeit festgestellt werden, beispielsweise dann, wenn der Schuhträger eine Treppe hinauf- oder hinuntergeht. Übertragende Signale können aufgezeichnet werden, beispielsweise in Form eines Zeit-Druck-Diagramms. Auf diese Weise wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung nicht nur das einmalige Anstoßen des Zehs an den Innenwänden des Schuhs angezeigt, also ein Umschlagen in irreversibler Weise, sondern es erfolgt eine Kontrolle in Echtzeit mit Hinweisen auf den tatsächlichen Druckzustand. Verschiedene Tragezustände eines Schuhs sind überprüfbar, neben dem bereits genannten Treppenlaufen auch das Springen, Gehen oder Abbremsen.In addition to a use of marking body, an alternative of the invention provides that the stop direction comprises at least one electrical switch. An electric switch may be closed upon impaction of the toes on the inner walls of the shoe. A current flow produced thereby can drive signal elements. Corresponding signal elements may be assigned to the stop device itself, for example, as memory in the shoe or on the body for the recording done Switching operations. But it is also possible that the signal elements are arranged away from the stop device and are linked to this via a radio link. This radio link is preferably wireless, it indicates when the switch is closed. In this way, attacks of the toes on the insides of the shoes can be detected in real time, for example, when the shoe wearer goes up or down a flight of stairs. Transmitting signals can be recorded, for example in the form of a time-pressure diagram. In this way, not only the one-time impact of the toe on the inner walls of the shoe is indicated by the device according to the invention, so a reversal in an irreversible manner, but there is a control in real time with clues to the actual printing condition. Various states of wearing a shoe are verifiable, in addition to the already mentioned stairs running and jumping, walking or braking.

Zur weiteren Ausbildung der Erfindung ist schließlich vorgesehen, daß der Mullbereich eine Bauhöhe von etwa 5 mm bis 10 mm aufweisen kann. Mit dieser Bauhöhe kann noch ein Abstand zwischen dem Zeh und einer Innenseite eines Schuhs simuliert werden. Somit ist der möglicherweise gewünschte Abstand zwischen den Zehen und der Innenseite des Schuhs berücksichtigbar.For further embodiment of the invention, it is finally provided that the mull area can have a height of about 5 mm to 10 mm. With this height can still be simulated a distance between the toe and an inside of a shoe. Thus, the possibly desired distance between the toes and the inside of the shoe is taken into account.

a perspective view of a device for checking the selected length size of an article of footwear.

Der in Fig. 1 gezeigte Fuß 1 ist in einen teilweise dargestellten Schuh 2 eingesteckt. Die Zehen 3 des Fußes 1 stehen in den vorderen Fußraum des Schuhs 2 vor, ohne an der Innenseite des Schuhs 2 anzustoßen.The in Fig. 1 shown foot 1 is inserted into a shoe 2 partially shown. The toes 3 of the foot 1 protrude into the front foot space of the shoe 2, without abutting on the inside of the shoe 2.

Jeder Zeh 3 ist mit einer Vorrichtung zum Überprüfen der gewählten Längengröße eines Fußbekleidungsstückes, wie in Fig. 3 gezeigt, ausgerüstet. Die Vorrichtung weist eine Anschlageinrichtung 4 auf, welche einen Mullbereich 5 hat. Die Anschlageinrichtung 4 ist wie ein Heftpflaster ausgebildet, das auf seiner in Fig. 3 gezeigten, dem Mullbereich 5 abgewandten Seite mit einer Selbstklebeschicht 6 belegt ist.Each toe 3 is provided with a device for checking the selected length size of an article of footwear, as in Fig. 3 shown, equipped. The device has a stop device 4, which has a mull area 5. The stop device 4 is designed as a sticking plaster, which on its in Fig. 3 shown, the gullet 5 side facing away with a self-adhesive layer 6 is occupied.

Fig. 2 zeigt, daß die Anschlageinrichtung 4 derart um den Zeh 3 herumgeklebt ist, daß der Mullbereich 5 in einem Raumbereich vor dem Zeh 3 angeordnet ist. Die Abschnitte des Zehs 3, die diesem Raumbereich zugekehrt sind, würden bei einem zu kleinen Schuh 2 an der Innenseite des Schuhs 2 anstoßen. In Fig. 2 findet kein Anstoßen statt, zwischen dem Mullbereich 5 und der Innenseite des Schuhs 2 ist noch ein Abstand ausgebildet. Fig. 2 shows that the stopper 4 is glued around the toe 3 in such a way that the mull area 5 is arranged in a space area in front of the toe 3. The portions of the toe 3 facing this space area would abut on the inside of the shoe 2 if the shoe 2 was too small. In Fig. 2 no abutment takes place, between the mull area 5 and the inside of the shoe 2, a distance is still formed.

Ist dieser Abstand nicht mehr gegeben und findet ein Anschlagen des Mullbereiches 5 an der Innenseite des Schuhs statt, werden im Mullbereich 5 enthaltene Markierungskörper gestaucht und gequetscht. Diese Markierungskörper enthalten Farbpartikel, welche bei diesem Stauchen und Quetschen ausgeschüttet werden. Wird der Fuß 1 wieder aus dem Schuh herausgenommen, ist dieses Farbausschütten deutlich zu erkennen, so daß für jeden einzelnen Zeh 3 festgestellt werden kann, ob der Schuh 2 zu klein ist oder ob der Schuh 2 passend ausgebildet ist.If this distance is no longer given and there is a striking of the mull area 5 on the inside of the shoe, 5 marking body contained in the gauze area are compressed and squeezed. These marker bodies contain color particles which are released during this compression and squeezing. If the foot 1 taken out of the shoe again, this color spill is clearly visible, so that it can be determined for each toe 3, if the shoe 2 is too small or if the shoe 2 is designed to fit.
