Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shoe sole, which has at its intended use on the ground facing bottom at least one cam, which is designed to make contact with the ground, wherein the cam comprises a base body which is fixed to the underside of the sole. Furthermore, the invention relates to a shoe with such a sole and a method for producing such a sole.
  • a generic shoe or such a shoe sole is for example from the US 2011/0197478 A1 known. Similar solutions show the WO 2010/101492 A1 and the EP 1 392 136 B1 , Here, a sports shoe is described, which is used in particular as a football boot, in which a number of cams are arranged on the bottom sole.
  • the invention has the object of developing a generic shoe or its sole so that the traction of the shoe is improved on the ground, ie the stability of the shoe when placed on the ground to be improved and the grip can be increased. This should be done in particular in such a way that a high dynamic stability of the shoe can be achieved in particular when playing football and playing golf. Furthermore, an efficient and economical way for the production of such a sole is to be proposed.
  • the solution of this object by the invention is characterized in that in the base body an arcuate recess is arranged with a longitudinal arc direction, which has two openings on a surface facing the bottom of the base body, wherein in the recess an insert is arranged, the one to the arcuate recess has congruent shape, wherein the insert is arranged in the arc longitudinal direction of the arcuate recess movable in the body.
  • the recess is preferably formed circular arc-shaped.
  • the main body may have an elongated shape with a cam longitudinal direction.
  • the longitudinal direction of the cam may have an angle to a sole longitudinal direction which is less than 35 °, preferably less than 25 ° and particularly preferably less than 15 °. As a result, the effect further explained below is particularly effective.
  • the insert preferably extends over an arc angle which is between 160 ° and 200 °, preferably between 170 ° and 190 °.
  • the insert may have such a large extent in the longitudinal direction of the sheet, that it protrudes from at least one of the openings in each position in the arcuate recess.
  • the insert may further comprise in a section perpendicular to the arc longitudinal direction a round shape, an elliptical shape or an elliptical shape with one-sided widening of an elliptical portion.
  • the insert in the end region of its arcuate course on a projecting portion, which prevents entry of the end portion in the arcuate recess.
  • the insert may be made of metal, in particular aluminum or magnesium.
  • the base body and the insert may be made of plastic material, the plastics being different from the base body and insert.
  • the base body can also be detachably arranged on the sole, although an integral construction with the sole is preferred.
  • the shoe according to the invention in particular the sports shoe, has a shoe sole of the type explained, which is connected to a shoe upper.
  • the shoe is preferably a football boot or a golf shoe.
  • a shoe which is characterized by a good and in comparison with previously known solutions improved stability when hitting the shoe on the floor.
  • the grip of the shoe is significantly improved; This applies in particular to the phases during a specific sequence of movements, as is typical when playing football and playing golf.
  • the inventively provided arcuate insert acts as a gripping element that adapts to the running or rolling movement of the foot on the ground dynamically. This makes it possible to ensure the longest possible contact with the ground of the shoe or the sole on the ground. This in turn has an improved grip of the shoe, compared to other previously known solutions result.
  • the insert may be made of metal, but preferably an abrasion-resistant plastic is used, which is processed by injection molding. It is important that the plastic of the insert with the plastic of the cam (that is, the body) or the sole does not connect.
  • the insert is preferably semicircular and is first produced as a component. This part is then placed in a corresponding injection mold (cam shape or sole mold) and molded with plastic material (primarily thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) or polyamide (PA)).
  • TPU thermoplastic polyurethane
  • PA polyamide
  • the material of the gripping element is - as explained - chosen so that it does not connect with the cam material (that is, the material of the cam body) and therefore remains movable in the longitudinal direction of the sheet.
  • the gripping element may be round or otherwise shaped in any cross-section (eg oval, i.e. elliptical or edged).
  • Cams with the described use can be provided at all intended cam positions or even at specific points of the sole.
  • the increase in traction results from the fact that the insert (gripping element) is arranged displaceable back and forth along the arc longitudinal direction of the arcuate recess. Depending on the contact situation between sole and ground, the grip element can move in the (circular) arcuate recess in the cam base body at each step and more or less protrude from the basic contour of the cam base body at the end.
  • the cam body is preferably permanently attached to the sole. But it is also possible to fix him replaceable on the sole, d. H. to be detachably arranged.
  • a soccer shoe is sketched, which has a shoe sole 1, which is connected to a shoe upper 11 in a known manner.
  • cams 3 are arranged on the bottom 2 of the shoe sole 1 . These can - as far as their body - directly from the material of the shoe sole 1 (or in the case of multiple materials that make up the sole, made of the material of the outsole) be molded by injection molding; it is also possible that the cams 3 are made separately and then, if necessary, releasably attached to the bottom 2 of the shoe sole 1.
  • the shoe or his shoe sole 1 have a shoe longitudinal direction L.
  • cams 3 that is to say at least a number of the cams arranged overall on the underside of the sole, is described in detail in FIGS FIGS. 3 and 4 seen.
  • the cam 3 consists of a base body 4, which - as already mentioned - preferably from the material of the shoe sole 1 during injection molding of the sole is formed.
  • a circular arc-shaped recess 5 is incorporated in the base body 4, a circular arc-shaped recess 5 is incorporated.
  • the recess 5 has an arc longitudinal direction B.
  • the recess 5 begins and ends a surface 6 of the base body 4, ie on a surface which faces (in contrast to the representation in the figures) when used according to the shoe sole to the ground and this contacted. In the surface 6, the recess 5 forms two openings 7 and 8.
  • an insert 9 is arranged (in Fig. 4 this can be seen in exploded view above the cam base body 4), which has an outer shape which is congruent, ie exactly matching the shape of the recess 5.
  • the shape of the insert 9 is approximately that of a half torus, which extends over an arc angle ⁇ , which is in the range of 180 ° (see upper part of FIG Fig. 4 ).
  • the insert 9 has in its two end portions slightly protruding nose-shaped projections, which represent means 10 which limit the mobility of the insert 9 when it is in the main body 4 of the cam 3.
  • the insert 9 Before the impact of the shoe on the ground is the insert 9, for example, in the in Fig. 5a position shown.
  • the first contact of the shoe with the ground is made by contacting the end 12 of the insert 9 with the ground.
  • the insert 9 By the force acting on the ground when the shoe hits the insert 9 is displaced in the longitudinal direction B along the recess 5, wherein an intermediate stage in Fig. 5b is shown.
  • FIG. 6 An alternative embodiment of the inventive concept is made Fig. 6 seen.
  • a difference from the above-described embodiment consists in the fact that the base body 4 is here quasi formed from the material of the sole 1 itself. This can be provided in the production of the sole 1 of a single plastic component or - as in the illustrated embodiment - even in the case of the fact that the sole consists of two (several) different plastic materials.
  • the sole 1 consists of a first component E (for example EVA) and a second (harder) component A, which forms the outsole or tread.
  • the main body 4 is here formed from the material A and in turn forms the arcuate recess 5, in which the insert 9, as described, can move.
  • the solution described in accordance with Fig. 6 is preferably used for a golf shoe or for a spike sole.
  • the supernatant of the surface 6 on the bottom 2 of the sole 1 can be kept very low, if necessary and if desired.
  • the part of the sole material functioning as the basic body 4 protrudes with its surface 6 only 5 to 10 mm out of the surface of the underside 2.
  • the cam 3 is produced according to the above-described method, after which the prefabricated insert 9 is inserted into a syringe mold for the sole and then overmolded during injection of the sole, so that it comes to rest in its final assembly position.
  • the insert 9 can be arranged or mounted without an undercut (despite the means 10) in the cam 3.
