Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shoe-sole wrap device for protecting floors, aimed at the field of accessories, to be worn when one returns into a building, to protect the floor from the humidity and from the mud present on the sole of the shoes in days when the ground, walkways and roads are damp and/or muddy.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a pair of structures and/or devices to wear with one's feet in the shoes, including large winter shoes, with which to protect the floor against direct contact with the shoes of those who return into the building from outdoors.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a pair of structures and/or devices that can easily be worn and then detached from the worn shoes, without requiring users to bend down, first to insert their feet with the shoes, then, when the user leaves the building, to detach said devices from their shoes.
  • yet another object of the present invention is to provide a pair of structures and/or devices with low cost, easy to manufacture and easy to use.
  • a structure-device comprising a base, with the contour profile recalling that of a shoe, an edge, emerging from the contour of said base and having sufficient height to wrap at least the sole of the shoe which penetrates therein until bearing on said base, a plurality of flexible and elastic elements distributed along said edge, able to interact at least with the shoe in such a way as to allow first the insertion until bringing the sole nearly adhering to said base, then to hold it nearly adhering with said base, lastly an extraction tongue projecting from the contour of said base and particularly from its rear part, able to favour the detachment of the invention from the shoe penetrated therein.
  • Such an invention is advantageous because it is structurally simple and low-cost.
  • the invention consists of a shoe sole wrap device for protecting floors, to be used in pairs, constituted by a structure made of a soft material, particularly in its lower part destined to adhere to the floor to be protected against humidity, dirt and/or traces of unhealthy substances, against the mud and/or the snow carried by the shoes of the persons who, from outdoors, enter an environment, which is normally residential, whose floor is to be protected against humidity, against dirt and/or unhealthy substances, against mud and/or against snow and against anything else which becomes attached to the shoes.
  • Said structure is normally obtained, or at least prevalently obtained by moulding. It comprises:
  • the edge 2, emerging from the contour or in proximity to the contour of the base 1, has sufficient height to wrap at least the sole 5 of the shoe 4, penetrated in its interior until bearing on said base 1, in such a way that the humidity and/or mud or snow present on the shoe do not end on the floor to be protected.
  • each of said flexible and elastic retaining elements 3 is hook-shaped, with a sinuous shape of the projecting part so that, when it is pressed from above, as occurs when the shoe 4 presses to penetrate into the invention, it spreads outwards to enable the shoe 4 to penetrate until reaching the base 1. Then, the elastic return of the elements 3 causes them to compress the shoe, thereby remaining adhering thereto and hence making the invention, when the user is walking, an appendix of the shoe 4 wrapped thereby.
  • each flexible and elastic element 3 is hook-shaped to carry out the retaining action.
  • the flexible and elastic elements 3 are parts, two by two, of a same element, whose part that joins them is not visible because it is buried in the material whereof the base 1 of the invention is made.
  • the flexible and elastic elements are shaped as retaining teeth 8 and they are distributed at least along segments of the edge 2 from which they emerge, oriented towards the central part of the base 1.
  • Said elements with retaining tooth profile 8 can constitute peripheral strips, continuous or otherwise, and they may be distributed according to one or more rows at different levels from the base 1, in such a way as to favour their grip on the shoe 4 and achieve a stable coupling therewith.
  • a double row of retaining teeth 8 is shown.
  • the shoe-sole for protecting floors of the invention further comprises the extraction tongue 6 that enables the user to extract his/her shoe from the related sole-wrapping structure.
  • the tongue 6 of the structure-device to be detached, in such a way as to block it on the floor, the user can, lifting his/her leg, free and then detach the shoe from the sole wrap whose tongue was pressed. Pressing first on the tongue 6 of a structure-device and then on the other, the user removes the pair of sole wraps of the invention with no need to bend down. It is advantageous that said extraction tongue 6 projects from the related base 1 at an end segment in a rear position.
  • the invention may not have a well-defined coupling direction, therefore it can be symmetrical relative to a transverse median line.
  • the tongue 6 therefore, in this case, may project indifferently from one side which, when worn, may be the front one or the rear one on the invention.
  • the material whereof the invention is made may thus be among the most diversified. In any case, it should be washable to enable it to be cleaned with water.
  • the construction details may vary, without altering the functional logic constituting the basis of the invention, without the variations, which may be made during its manufacture, departing from the scope of protection defined by the claims that follow.
