Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schuh, der aufweist:

  1. a) ein Oberteil zur Aufnahme eines Fußes,
  2. b) eine Laufsohle mit einem in Längsrichtung im Wesentlichen konvex gekrümmten Sohlenboden,
  3. c) eine zwischen Oberteil und Laufsohle angeordnete Zwischensohle.

  1. a) an upper part for receiving a foot,
  2. b) an outsole with a longitudinally substantially convexly curved sole bottom,
  3. c) an intermediate sole and outsole arranged midsole.

Schuhe sind aus offenkundiger Vorbenutzung bekannt. Ebenfalls bekannt beispielsweise aus EP 1 124 462 P1 sind sogenannte MBT (Masai Barefoot Technologie) Schuhe, die eine konvex in Laufrichtung abgerundete Sohlenform mit einem eingefügten Fersenweichteil aufweisen. Diese weiche Schuhbodenkonstruktion soll den Halt des Fußes beim Gehen vermindern und die Muskulatur stärken, weil der Körper aktiv im Gleichgewicht gehalten werden muss. KR 100 780 556 B1 offenbart einen MBT-Schuh, bei dem die Schuhsohlenkonstruktion eine Mehrzahl von Materialen mit unterschiedlichen Eigenschaften aufweist, um die gewünschten destabilisierenden Eigenschaften zu erreichen.Shoes are known from public prior use. Also known for example from EP 1 124 462 P1 are so-called MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) shoes, which have a convex in the direction of rounded sole shape with an inserted heel soft part. This soft shoe bottom construction is designed to reduce the foot's grip when walking and to strengthen the muscles because the body must be actively balanced. KR 100 780 556 B1 discloses a MBT shoe in which the shoe sole construction has a plurality of materials with different properties to achieve the desired destabilizing properties.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, einen Schuh der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, der auf einfache, wirkungsvolle und kostengünstige Weise ein destabilisierendes Gehen im Sinne der Masai Barefoot Technologie ermöglicht.The invention is based on the object to provide a shoe of the type mentioned, which allows a simple, effective and cost-effective way destabilizing walking in the sense of Masai Barefoot technology.

Bei einem eingangs genannten Schuh löst diese Erfindung die Aufgabe durch die kennzeichenden Merkmale des Hauptanspruchs.In a shoe mentioned above, this invention solves the problem by the characterizing features of the main claim.

Zunächst seien einige im Rahmen der Erfindung verwendete Begriffe erläutert. Ein Schuh ist jedwede zum Laufen geeignete Fußbekleidung. Der Begriff schließt geschlossene und offene Schuhe wie beispielsweise Sandalen ein.First, some terms used in the invention are explained. A shoe is any footwear suitable for walking. The term includes closed and open shoes such as sandals.

Der Oberteil ist der den Fuß umschließende Bereich des Schuhs. Er kann aus Leder, Kunststoff, einem Gewebe oder anderen geeigneten Materialien bestehen.The top is the foot enclosing area of the shoe. It can be made of leather, plastic, a fabric or other suitable materials.

Die Laufsohle ist in Kontakt mit dem Untergrund. Sie ist in Längsrichtung konvex gekrümmt, so dass ein abrollendes Gehen ermöglicht wird. Die Krümmung kann sich kontinuierlich über die gesamte Länge der Laufsohle erstrecken oder Diskontinuitäten aufweisen.The outsole is in contact with the ground. It is convexly curved in the longitudinal direction, so that a rolling go is made possible. The curvature may extend continuously over the entire length of the outsole or have discontinuities.

Zwischen Oberteil und Laufsohle ist eine Zwischensohle angeordnet. Diese Zwischensohle kann beispielsweise dazu ausgebildet sein, das Fußbett zu bilden. Oberhalb der Zwischensohle kann beispielsweise noch eine Brandsohle, eine Einlage oder dergleichen angeordnet sein.Between top and outsole, a midsole is arranged. For example, this midsole may be configured to form the footbed. Above the midsole, for example, an insole, an insert or the like may be arranged.

Laufsohle und Zwischensohle schließen miteinander einen Bereich durch das Gewicht des Benutzers kompressibler Hohlräume ein. Diese Hohlräume bewirken, dass sich der entsprechende Bereich durch das Gewicht des gehenden Benutzers verformt und damit den beim Gehen deformierbaren und den Fuß damit destabilisierbaren Bereich bildet. Zwischen sich einschließen bedeutet, dass die Hohlräume oberhalb der Unterseite der Laufsohle und unterhalb der Oberseite der Zwischensohle angeordnet sind. Sie können sich entweder in das Material der Laufsohle, der Zwischensohle oder in beide Bereiche erstrecken. Kern der Erfindung ist es, den destabilisierenden Bereich des Schuhs nicht durch ein separates Material zu bilden, das als weicher Einschub in der Sohle angeordnet wird, sondern auf einfache Weise durch eine teilweise hohle Gestaltung des Materials der Laufsohle und/oder Zwischensohle. Der Bereich ist in den hinteren zwei Dritteln des Schuhs angeordnet, vorzugsweise im Bereich der hinteren Hälfte des Schuhs. Seine Kompressibilität destabilisiert somit insbesondere den Fersenbereich des Fußes.The outsole and midsole span an area with each other through the weight of the user of compressible voids. These cavities cause the corresponding area to be deformed by the weight of the walking user, thereby destabilizing the walking deformable and destabilizing the foot Area forms. To include between them means that the cavities are located above the bottom of the outsole and below the top of the midsole. They can either extend into the material of the outsole, the midsole or in both areas. The essence of the invention is not to form the destabilizing portion of the shoe by a separate material which is arranged as a soft insert in the sole, but in a simple manner by a partially hollow design of the material of the outsole and / or midsole. The area is located in the back two thirds of the shoe, preferably in the area of the back half of the shoe. Its compressibility thus destabilizes especially the heel area of the foot.

Die kompressiblen Hohlräume haben eine Erstreckung in Aufstandsrichtung (die Aufstandsrichtung ist die Normale oder Senkrechte auf der Aufstandsfläche der Schuhe) des Schuhs, die in dem Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume in Längsrichtung von vorne nach hinten zunächst zunimmt, ein Maximum durchläuft und dann wieder abnimmt. In einem senkrechten Längsschnitt kann dieser Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume somit beispielsweise in etwa eine Kissenform aufweisen.The compressible cavities have an extension in the upright direction (the upright direction is the normal or perpendicular to the footprint of the shoes) of the shoe, which initially increases in the area of compressible cavities in the longitudinal direction from front to back, passes through a maximum and then decreases again. In a vertical longitudinal section, this region of compressible cavities can thus have, for example, approximately a cushion shape.

Der Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume weist in Längsrichtung bevorzugt eine Erstreckung von 20 bis 50%, weiter vorzugsweise 25 bis 40%, weiter vorzugsweise 25 bis 35% der Gesamtlänge des Schuhs auf.The area of compressible cavities in the longitudinal direction preferably has an extension of 20 to 50%, more preferably 25 to 40%, more preferably 25 to 35% of the total length of the shoe.

In Querrichtung (in Richtung der Breite des Schuhs) kann dieser Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume eine Erstreckung von 60 bis 100%, vorzugsweise 75 bis 100%, weiter vorzugsweise 90 bis 100% der Gesamtbreite des Schuhs aufweisen. 100% bedeutet, dass sich der Bereich im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Schuhbreite erstreckt, wobei selbstverständlich der Tatsache Rechnung zu tragen ist, dass der Seitenbereich der Laufsohle bzw. Zwischensohle vorzugsweise geschlossen ist, die Hohlräume also nicht zur Seite bzw. nach außen offen sind.In the transverse direction (in the direction of the width of the shoe), this region of compressible cavities can have an extent of 60 to 100%, preferably 75 to 100%, more preferably 90 to 100% of the total width of the shoe. 100% means that the area extends essentially over the entire shoe width, taking into account the fact of course is that the side region of the outsole or midsole is preferably closed, so the cavities are not open to the side or to the outside.

Das Volumen eines Hohlraums beträgt vorzugsweise zwischen 0,1 und 10 cm3, weiter vorzugsweise 0,2 und 8 cm3, weiter vorzugsweise 0,2 und 5 cm3. Bei einer in etwa kissenförmigen Gestaltung des Bereichs kompressibler Hohlräume finden sich in der Regel kleinere Hohlräume von beispielsweise zwischen 0,1 und 0,2 oder 0,3 cm3 im Bereich der Ecken des Bereichs. Im Bereich der vorderen und hinteren Ränder können die Volumina der Hohlräume beispielsweise zwischen 0,4 und 0,8 cm3 an Volumen aufweisen. In einem mittleren Bereich kann das Volumen beispielsweise zwischen 2 und 8 cm3, vorzugsweise zwischen 3 und 7 cm3, weiter vorzugsweise zwischen 4 und 6 cm3, insbesondere bei etwa 5 cm3 liegen.The volume of a cavity is preferably between 0.1 and 10 cm 3 , more preferably 0.2 and 8 cm 3 , more preferably 0.2 and 5 cm 3 . In an approximately pillow-shaped design of the area compressible cavities are generally smaller cavities of, for example, between 0.1 and 0.2 or 0.3 cm 3 in the region of the corners of the area. In the area of the front and rear edges, the volumes of the cavities may have, for example, between 0.4 and 0.8 cm 3 in volume. In a central region, the volume may for example be between 2 and 8 cm 3 , preferably between 3 and 7 cm 3 , more preferably between 4 and 6 cm 3 , in particular about 5 cm 3 .

Der Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume weist eine Mehrzahl von in Aufstandsrichtung des Schuhs ragenden Stegen auf, die die Wände der Hohlräume bilden und somit zwischen sich Hohlräume einschließen. Die Stege können bevorzugt im Wesentlichen in Längs- und/oder Querrichtung des Schuhs verlaufen.The region of compressible cavities has a plurality of webs projecting in the footprint direction of the shoe, which form the walls of the cavities and thus enclose cavities between them. The webs may preferably extend substantially in the longitudinal and / or transverse direction of the shoe.

Der Abstand der Stege untereinander kann erfindungsgemäß 0,5 bis 2,5 cm, vorzugsweise 1 bis 2 cm betragen.The distance between the webs can according to the invention be 0.5 to 2.5 cm, preferably 1 to 2 cm.

Die Höhe der Stege in dem Bereich größter Höhe (bei einer kissenförmigen Gestaltung des Bereichs also etwa in der Mitte) kann zwischen 0,5 und 2,5 cm, vorzugsweise 1 und 2 cm liegen. Die Dicke der Stege (in der Sohlenebene) kann bevorzugt zwischen 2 und 6 mm, weiter vorzugsweise 2 und 4 mm liegen.The height of the webs in the area of greatest height (in the case of a pillow-shaped design of the area approximately in the middle) may be between 0.5 and 2.5 cm, preferably 1 and 2 cm. The thickness of the webs (in the sole plane) may preferably be between 2 and 6 mm, more preferably 2 and 4 mm.

Die Stege sind erfindungsgemäß einstückig mit der Laufsohle verbunden. Dies bedeutet, dass die Stege Teil des Materials der Laufsohle sind. Die Kompressibilität des Bereichs kompressibler Hohlräume ist auch durch die Wahl des Materials dieser Stege (die in der Regel Teil der Lauf- oder Zwischensohle sind) einstellbar. Bspw. kann dieses Material eine Shore A-Härte von 40 bis 80, vorzugsweise 50 bis 70, aufweisen.The webs are inventively integrally connected to the outsole. This means that the webs are part of the material the outsole are. The compressibility of the area of compressible cavities is also adjustable by the choice of the material of these webs (which are usually part of the running or midsole). For example. For example, this material may have a Shore A hardness of 40 to 80, preferably 50 to 70.

Die Laufsohle und/oder die Zwischensohle können aus einem Polymermaterial bestehen. Es kann sich um feste oder geschäumte Kunststoffe handeln, ein geeignetes Polymermaterial kann beispielsweise Ethylenvinylacetat (EVA) sein, das unter der Bezeichnung Phylon erhältlich ist.The outsole and / or the midsole may be made of a polymeric material. It may be solid or foamed plastics, a suitable polymer material may be, for example, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), available under the name Phylon.

Zwei Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden im Folgenden anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Darin zeigen:

Der erfindungsgemäße Schuh weist ein Oberteil 1 auf einer unten näher erläuterten Sohlenkonstruktion auf. Eine Laufsohle 2 bildet die Aufstandsfläche des Schuhs auf dem Untergrund. Man erkennt, dass die Lauffläche der Laufsohle 2 eine im Wesentlichen in Längsrichtung konvexe Krümmung aufweist. Man erkennt, dass diese Krümmung nicht vollständig kontinuierlich verläuft, sondern dass die Laufsohle bei 3 einen diskontinuierlichen Verlauf der Krümmung und einen im Wesentlichen ebenen Bereich aufweist.The shoe according to the invention has an upper part 1 on a sole construction explained in more detail below. An outsole 2 forms the footprint of the shoe on the ground. One recognises, that the running surface of the outsole 2 has a substantially convex curvature in the longitudinal direction. It can be seen that this curvature does not run completely continuously, but that at 3 the outsole has a discontinuous course of the curvature and a substantially flat region.

Im hinteren Bereich der Laufsohle 2 weist diese nach oben weisende Stege 4 auf, die längs und quer verlaufen (siehe Fig. 2) und zwischen sich Hohlräume 5 einschließen. Der Bereich dieser Stege 4 mit den darin eingeschlossenen Hohlräumen 5 bildet einen in etwa kissenförmigen (siehe Fig. 2) Bereich erhöhter Nachgiebigkeit.In the rear region of the outsole 2 has these upwardly facing webs 4, which extend longitudinally and transversely (see Fig. 2 ) and include cavities 5 between them. The area of these webs 4 with the cavities 5 enclosed therein forms an approximately pillow-shaped (see Fig. 2 ) Range of increased compliance.

Oberhalb der Laufsohle 2 ist eine Zwischensohle 6 angeordnet. Die Zwischensohle 6 ist in dem zur Laufsohle 2 weisenden Bereich so konturiert, dass sie den Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume aufnimmt und mit der Oberkante der Stege 4 im Wesentlichen abschließt. Oberhalb der Zwischensohle 6 ist noch eine Brandsohle 7 und fakultativ eine Einlage 8 (ggf. zur Gestaltung des Fußbettes) angeordnet.Above the outsole 2, a midsole 6 is arranged. The midsole 6 is contoured in the area facing the outsole 2 in such a way that it accommodates the area of compressible cavities and substantially closes with the upper edge of the webs 4. Above the midsole 6 is still an insole 7 and optionally an insert 8 (possibly for the design of the footbed) arranged.

Die Hohlräume 5 sind im Zuge der Belastung des Schuhs durch den Benutzer kompressibel. Dies bedeutet, dass die Stege 4 unter Druckbelastung von oben sich verformen und sich dabei die Größe der Hohlräume 5 vermindert.The cavities 5 are compressible in the course of the load of the shoe by the user. This means that the webs deform 4 under pressure from above and thereby reduces the size of the cavities 5.

Die einzelnen Bestandteile des Schuhs werden miteinander verbunden, beispielsweise verklebt. Die Laufsohle 2 kann im Ausführungsbeispiel aus einem geeigneten Material wie beispielsweise Gummi mit einer Shore A-Härte von 61 und die Zwischensohle 6 aus einem Polymer wie beispielsweise Ethylvinylacetat (Handelsname Phylon) mit einer Shore A-Härte von 55 bestehen.The individual components of the shoe are connected to each other, for example glued. The outsole 2 may in the embodiment of a suitable material such as rubber with a Shore A hardness of 61 and the midsole 6 of a polymer such as ethyl vinyl acetate (trade name Phylon) with a Shore A hardness of 55 consist.

In den Figuren 3 und 4 sind verschiedene Abmessungen einer Laufsohle und des darin angeordneten Bereichs kompressibler Hohlräume gezeigt. Diese Abmessungen gelten für ein Ausführungsbeispiel mit der Schuhgröße 43. Sämtliche Maße sind in mm angegeben.In the Figures 3 and 4 Various dimensions of an outsole and the area of compressible cavities disposed therein are shown. These dimensions are for an embodiment with the shoe size 43. All dimensions are given in mm.

In den Figuren 3 und 4 erkennt man, dass beispielsweise das Volumen eines Hohlraums in der Mitte etwa 5,7 cm3 (17 x 19 x 17,5 mm) beträgt. Die Dicke der Stege 4 beträgt in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel etwa 3 mm.In the Figures 3 and 4 For example, it can be seen that the volume of a cavity in the middle is about 5.7 cm 3 (17 x 19 x 17.5 mm). The thickness of the webs 4 in this embodiment is about 3 mm.

Figur 5 zeigt schematisch Laufsohle 2 und Zwischensohle 6 einer zweiten Ausführungsform der Erfindung. Sie entspricht der ersten Ausführungsform, jedoch weist die Laufsohle 2 einen zweiten Bereich kompressibler Hohlräume 9 im vorderen Bereich auf. Die Zwischensohle 6 ist in dem zur Laufsohle 2 weisenden Bereich so konturiert, dass sie sowohl im vorderen als auch im hinteren Bereich den entsprechenden Bereich 5 bzw. 9 kompressibler Hohlräume aufnimmt und mit der Oberkante der Stege 4 im Wesentlichen abschließt.
