Definitions
- the present invention relates to a shoe for a so-called rolling walk according to the preamble of claim 1, i. a walking shoe in which the outsole is structured in the bottom of the shoe.
- the “rolling off” was the Massais, an ethnic group in Kenya, apart, which move barefoot with a particularly healthy pace. Footwear that allow this particular walking even with shoes, are the subject of an invention, for example, in the document WO 01/15560 A1 ( PCT / CH00 / 00412 ) is described in detail. Further information about rolling, especially in the field of orthopedics, can be found in the special edition MBT, Orthomannchuhtechnik 12/2004, p. 22-28. MBT is the abbreviation for Masai Barefoot Technology (or Masai Barefoot Technology).
- the MBT shoes are characterized in particular by their external shape and the nature of the lower sole, ie the outsole. It will be up here Fig. 8 the drawing referenced, which is essentially the Fig. 1 in the above-mentioned document WO 01/15560 equivalent.
- reference numeral 2 refers to the top of the shoe.
- This upper part 2 is connected to an outsole 12 via a solid and hard but elastic midsole (insole) 10 (having a bottom 11).
- the outsole 12 which has a thickness between 0.5 and 5 cm, is arcuately curved in the side view and is soft and elastic.
- the lower surface of the outsole 12 is covered with a hard and also elastic sole bottom 13, which forms the actual running surface of the shoe.
- the midsole bottom 11 and the outsole bottom 13 have any spherical, arc or circular segment-like shape.
- the present invention has set itself the goal of maintaining the advantages of rolling walking while overcoming the disadvantages described above.
- the shoe to be created externally as little as possible from normal shoes.
- the rolling go is laid inside the shoe.
- the inventive shoe is defined in the characterizing part of claim 1. Particular or preferred embodiments form the subject of dependent claims.
- Japanese published patent application JP-A-1 0-2004-0028899 an insole with a recess in the midfoot and heel area of the shoe, in which a hollow spring body is inserted, inside which there is a spring element in the form of a leg spring.
- EP-0 497 152 is described a damping element which is mounted in the heel area of shoes, in particular safety shoes, for the purpose of damping the heel pressure, for example as part of an insole.
- the US patent application 2008/005929 describes, for example, a shock-absorbing sole with one or more gas-filled compartments, which give a spring action, and a damper, which according to a particular embodiment of a viscoelastic material is made.
- the present invention proposes to introduce at least one rolling element into the outsole of a shoe.
- the rolling element can be inserted into a form-fitting recess of the outsole, or the outsole can be formed so that it contains integrated this rolling element.
- the rolling element extends at least over part of the width of the shoe and is made of an at least partially elastic material, for example of an elastomer such as rubber or a polyurethane.
- the material of the rolling element harder than the material of the outsole.
- the hardness ratio of the two materials can be chosen arbitrarily and adjusted as needed. In this way it is ensured that the shoe behaves while walking according to the known principle, so that the rolling process runs in a natural way. In addition, the unwinding is favored in this way.
- the rolling element extends over the entire width of the outsole. Thanks to a continuous unrolling of the rolling element over the entire width of the shoe even greater stability, as well as a uniform loading of the outsole material can be ensured
- the inserted rolling element can have different shapes.
- the simplest form is that of a cylinder section, which may be a cylinder of circular or oval cross-section.
- This cylinder portion may be made of solid material or hollow, but the cavity may also be filled with an elastic material.
- the sole it is also conceivable to design the sole so that the inserted rolling element is visible from the outside.
- the sole may be formed to form a continuous hole (through a portion of the sole, the rolling element and the second portion of the sole).
- the rolling element can also be adapted to the different shape of the right and left shoe.
- the rolling element has the shape of a truncated cone section with a circular or oval cross-section.
- the variants described above can be used.
- the rolling element described has a flat and a curved surface. It is possible to make both surfaces curved. This allows the element to better adapt to the sole of the foot.
- the radii of curvature of both surfaces can be either the same or different.
- the MBT shoe 1 is in the document PCT / CH00 / 00412 referred to as "active rolling device". It consists of the upper part 2 and the composite lower part 10 to 13.
- 10 represents the actual insole, which is also referred to as a midsole. This is firm, hard and elastic.
- Underneath is a midsole bottom 11 which separates the midsole 10 from the insole 12, which is soft and elastic.
- the sole bottom 13 provides contact with the surface on which the user is walking.
- a shoe 10 according to the invention is shown in a perspective view and transparent.
- a top 20 also called an upper shoe
- the upper part 20 is connected to the bottom 30 in the usual manner known to those skilled in the art.
- the ankle part of the upper part is provided with a narrow padding 25. Since it is an open shoe, a lace 22 is provided.
- other fasteners may be used, such as a velcro closure or other similar means.
- the outsole 33 which forms a part of the bottom 30 and which consists of a little compressible, hard and elastic material, small transverse ribs 32 are attached below, whereby this sole receives non-slip properties.
- the rear portion of the bottom terminates in a heel portion 33; when the shoe is drawn, the outsole is continuous without a specially shaped heel; such a continuous sole improves the running properties.

- the lower surface 42 is curved with the same radius of curvature as the recess in the bottom 30, and the upper surface 41 is flat.
- the left shoe roll-off member 40 is the mirror image of the right shoe roll-off member just described. It should be mentioned here that this particular form of the rolling element 40 corresponds to the physiological characteristics of human walking, since the foot does not roll on the ground completely parallel to the direction of walking.
- both the leading edge 44B 'and the trailing edge 44B are at an angle to the side edges of the element, which are normally parallel but may also be at an angle to each other Fig. 3B also has a strong curvature of the bottom 42.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Schuh für ein sogenanntes abrollendes Gehen nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1, d.h. einen Schuh zum abrollenden Gehen bei dem die Laufsohle im Boden des Schuhs strukturiert ist.The present invention relates to a shoe for a so-called rolling walk according to the preamble of claim 1, i. a walking shoe in which the outsole is structured in the bottom of the shoe.
Das "abrollende Gehen" wurde den Massais, einer ethnischen Gruppe in Kenia, abgesehen, welche sich barfuss mit einer besonders gesunden Gangart bewegen. Fussbekleidungen, die dieses besondere Gehen auch mit Schuhen gestatten, sind Gegenstand einer Erfindung, die beispielsweise im Dokument
Die Grundlagen des abrollenden Gehens sind im erwähnten Dokument beschrieben, dessen Inhalt durch Bezugnahme Bestandteil der vorliegenden Patentanmeldung sein soll. Daher soll auch dieses abrollende Gehen und dessen positive Auswirkungen auf den menschlichen Organismus, insbesondere seine Gehwerkzeuge, die Wirbelsäule und die Gelenke an dieser Stelle nicht beschrieben werden.The basics of rolling walking are described in the cited document, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference. Therefore, this rolling go and its positive effects on the human organism, in particular its walking tools, the spine and the joints should not be described at this point.
Die MBT-Schuhe zeichnen sich insbesondere durch ihre äussere Form und die Beschaffenheit der Untersohle, d.h. der Laufsohle aus. Es wird hier auf
Die Verwendung solcher Schuhe beim Gehen beeinflusst, wie gesagt, die Gesundheit des Benutzers auf vorteilhafte Weise. Allerdings haben MBT-Schuhe auch viele Nachteile, welche ihrer Verbreitung auf dem Markt entgegen wirken.The use of such shoes when walking, as mentioned, affects the health of the user in an advantageous manner. However, MBT shoes also have many disadvantages which counteract their dissemination on the market.
Als Erstes ist bekannt und auch beschrieben, dass die Verwendung der Schuhe zunächst eine mindestens sechswöchige Trainingszeit erfordert, während derer das Gehen, vor allem in den ersten Tagen, mühsam und sogar nicht ganz ungefährlich ist. Zweitens haben diese Schuhe ein relativ wenig ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild, und dies hält die meisten Interessenten, insbesondere die Damen, vom Kauf und dem Tragen solcher Schuhe ab. Weiterhin ist auch nach Absolvierung der Gewöhnungsphase festzustellen, dass das Gehen mehr oder weniger instabil ist, insbesondere auf harten Böden.First of all, it is known and also described that the use of the shoes first requires a training period of at least six weeks, during which walking, especially in the first few days, is laborious and even not entirely safe. Second, these shoes have a relatively unattractive appearance, and this keeps most of the prospects, especially the ladies, from buying and wearing such shoes. Furthermore, even after completing the habituation phase, it can be stated that walking is more or less unstable, especially on hard floors.
Als weiterer Nachteil ist anzumerken, dass die Laufsohle schnell abgenutzt wird, weil sie dünn sein muss, damit die Untersohle beim Gehen verformbar bleibt. Eine Reparatur einer abgelaufenen oder gerissenen Laufsohle ist oft nur schwer möglich, so dass dann das ganze, naturgemäss teure Schuhpaar ersetzt werden muss. Nicht zuletzt können solche Schuhe auf Grund der besonderen Sohlenform schwierig gestapelt werden, so dass sie beim Verstauen viel mehr Raum als herkömmliche Schuhe benötigen.Another disadvantage is that the outsole wears out quickly because it has to be thin so that the insole remains deformable when walking. A repair of an expired or cracked outsole is often difficult, so then the whole, naturally expensive shoe pair must be replaced. Last but not least, such shoes can be difficult to stack due to the particular sole shape, so they require much more space when stowed than conventional shoes.
Die vorliegende Erfindung hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, die Vorteile des abrollenden Gehens beizubehalten und gleichzeitig die oben geschilderten Nachteile zu überwinden. Dabei soll sich der zu schaffende Schuh äusserlich so wenig wie möglich von normalen Schuhen unterscheiden.The present invention has set itself the goal of maintaining the advantages of rolling walking while overcoming the disadvantages described above. Here, the shoe to be created externally as little as possible from normal shoes.
Erfindungsgemäss wird das abrollende Gehen ins Innere des Schuhs verlegt. Der erfindungsgemässe Schuh ist im kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 definiert. Besondere oder bevorzugte Ausführungsformen bilden den Gegenstand von abhängigen Ansprüchen.According to the invention, the rolling go is laid inside the shoe. The inventive shoe is defined in the characterizing part of claim 1. Particular or preferred embodiments form the subject of dependent claims.
Es ist bereits bekannt, in die Laufsohle eines Schuhs Einlagen einzusetzen oder auf der Laufsohle anzuordnen, und es sind schon zahlreiche Einlegesohlen und Einlegeelemente für Schuhe beschrieben worden. Die im Stand der Technik bekannten Einlagen bzw. Einlageelemente haben aber sämtlich den Zweck, dämpfend, deodorierend oder desinfizierend zu wirken oder die Form des Schuhs an den Fuss anzupassen und können ein abrollendes Gehen weder beschreiben noch nahelegen.It is already known to insert inserts into the outsole of a shoe or to arrange it on the outsole, and numerous insoles and insert elements for shoes have already been described. However, the deposits or insert elements known in the prior art all have the purpose of damping, deodorizing or disinfecting or adapting the shape of the shoe to the foot and can neither describe nor suggest a rolling walk.

Demgegenüber schlägt die vorliegende Erfindung vor, in die Laufsohle eines Schuhs mindestens ein Abrollelement einzubringen. Dabei kann das Abrollelement in eine formschlüssig ausgebildete Ausnehmung der Laufsohle eingelegt werden, oder die Laufsohle kann so ausgebildet werden, dass sie dieses Abrollelement integriert enthält. Das Abrollelement erstreckt sich dabei mindestens über einen Teil der Breite des Schuhs und ist aus einem mindestens teilweise elastischen Material gefertigt, beispielsweise aus einem Elastomer wie Kautschuk oder einem Polyurethan.In contrast, the present invention proposes to introduce at least one rolling element into the outsole of a shoe. In this case, the rolling element can be inserted into a form-fitting recess of the outsole, or the outsole can be formed so that it contains integrated this rolling element. The rolling element extends at least over part of the width of the shoe and is made of an at least partially elastic material, for example of an elastomer such as rubber or a polyurethane.
Vorteilhaft ist 2. das Material des Abrollelements härter als das Material der Laufsohle. Das Härteverhältnis der beiden Materialien kann beliebig gewählt und nach Bedarf angepasst werden. Auf diese Weise wird gewährleistet, dass sich der Schuh beim Gehen nach dem bekannten Prinzip verhält, so dass der Abrollprozess auf eine natürliche Weise abläuft. Ausserdem wird auf diese Weise das Abrollen begünstigt.2. Advantageously, the material of the rolling element harder than the material of the outsole. The hardness ratio of the two materials can be chosen arbitrarily and adjusted as needed. In this way it is ensured that the shoe behaves while walking according to the known principle, so that the rolling process runs in a natural way. In addition, the unwinding is favored in this way.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsvariante erstreckt sich das Abrollelement über die gesamte Breite der Laufsohle. Dank einer durchgehenden Abrollung des Abrollelements über die gesamte Breite des Schuhs kann eine noch grössere Stabilität, sowie ein gleichmässiges Beanspruchen des Laufsohlenmaterials gewährleistet werdenIn a particular embodiment, the rolling element extends over the entire width of the outsole. Thanks to a continuous unrolling of the rolling element over the entire width of the shoe even greater stability, as well as a uniform loading of the outsole material can be ensured
Das eingelegte Abrollelement kann unterschiedliche Formen aufweisen. Die einfachste Form ist diejenige eines Zylinderabschnitts, wobei es sich um einen Zylinder mit kreisförmigem oder ovalem Querschnitt handeln kann. Dieser Zylinderabschnitt kann aus Vollmaterial bestehen oder aber auch hohl sein, wobei der Hohlraum auch mit einem elastischen Material ausgefüllt sein kann. Auch ist es denkbar, die Sohle so auszubilden, dass das eingelegte Abrollelement von aussen sichtbar ist. Wenn ein hohles Abrollelement verwendet wird, kann die Sohle insbesondere auch so ausgebildet werden, dass dabei ein durchgehendes Loch (durch einen Abschnitt der Sohle, das Abrollelement und den zweiten Abschnitt der Sohle) gebildet werden.The inserted rolling element can have different shapes. The simplest form is that of a cylinder section, which may be a cylinder of circular or oval cross-section. This cylinder portion may be made of solid material or hollow, but the cavity may also be filled with an elastic material. It is also conceivable to design the sole so that the inserted rolling element is visible from the outside. In particular, when a hollow rolling element is used, the sole may be formed to form a continuous hole (through a portion of the sole, the rolling element and the second portion of the sole).
Das Abrollelement kann auch an die unterschiedliche Form des rechten und linken Schuhs angepasst werden. Zu diesem Zweck hat dann das Abrollelement die Form eines Kegelstumpfabschnitts mit kreisförmigem oder ovalem Querschnitt. Im Übrigen können die oben beschriebenen Varianten benutzt werden.The rolling element can also be adapted to the different shape of the right and left shoe. For this purpose, then the rolling element has the shape of a truncated cone section with a circular or oval cross-section. Incidentally, the variants described above can be used.
Das beschriebene Abrollelement weist eine ebene und eine gekrümmte Oberfläche auf. Es ist möglich, beide Flächen gekrümmt auszuführen. Dadurch kann sich das Element besser an die Fusssohle anpassen. Die Krümmungsradien beider Flächen können dabei entweder gleich oder auch verschieden sein.The rolling element described has a flat and a curved surface. It is possible to make both surfaces curved. This allows the element to better adapt to the sole of the foot. The radii of curvature of both surfaces can be either the same or different.
