Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shoe with movable cleats, and more particularly to a shoe for a field sport such as soccer, rugby and American football.
  • a field sport such as rugby and soccer involves kicking actions as well as running actions, and shoes therefor need to have various functions.
  • the pivot foot (the non-kicking foot) is under a force in the horizontal direction that is about three times larger than that during running actions. Therefore, there is a demand for stability. This characteristic is sought for particularly in the heel portion.
  • a shoe includes:
  • the second cleat C2 of the second region ⁇ 2 first contacts the ground. Then, although the 1st strike acts upon the second cleat C2, the band-shaped portion deforms, thereby converting part of the 1st strike energy to the deformation energy. This will reduce the energy of impact acting upon the foot, thereby increasing the shock-absorbing property.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 when a bending moment acts around an axis extending along the longitudinal direction of a band-shaped portion 2 that satisfies the element a) and/or the element b), the band-shaped portion 2 has a small rigidity against the bending moment, i.e., a small bending rigidity. Therefore, the band-shaped portion 2 exhibits a bending deformation (flexes), whereby the second region ⁇ 2 deforms with respect to the first region ⁇ 1, and the second cleat C2 is displaced significantly toward the lateral side with respect to the first cleat C1.
  • second cleat C2 of the lateral side La of the rearfoot portion 1R often contacts the ground surface at an oblique angle. Then, as the second cleat C2 is displaced together with the second region ⁇ 2, the second cleat C2 is likely to be vertical to the ground surface, thereby improving the stability while running.
  • the second cleat C2 of the rearfoot portion 1R is under a significant load toward the lateral side in the horizontal direction.
  • a bending stress acts on the band-shaped portion 2 via the second region ⁇ 2 from the second cleat C2, which flexes the band-shaped portion 2 in the foot width direction, thereby moving the second cleat C2 toward the lateral side of the foot, together with the second region ⁇ 2, with respect to the first region ⁇ 1.
  • the distance between the cleats C1, C2 increases, and the support of the pivot foot is likely to become stable.
  • flex (flexion) means that the bending stress is produced about an axis extending along the longitudinal direction of the band-shaped portion 2, thereby bending the band-shaped portion.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 extends from a first end portion E1 of the rear edge portion RE of the rear foot portion 1R toward a second end portion E2 on the lateral side La of the rear foot portion 1R; the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 are continuous with each other via the hard material and/or a first high-rigidity portion thicker than the band-shaped portion 2 in the rear edge portion RE of the outer sole 2 which is posterior R to the first end portion E1; and the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 are continuous with each other via the hard material and/or a second high-rigidity portion thicker than the band-shaped portion 2 in the lateral edge portion LE of the outer sole 1 which is on the lateral side La more lateral than the second end portion E2.
  • the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 are continuous with each other in the rear edge portion RE and the lateral edge portion LE via a hard material and/or a high-rigidity portion.
  • the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 of the outsole 1 are supported by each other at the opposite ends of the rear edge portion RE and the lateral edge portion LE which are hard and/or high-rigidity.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 is formed by a soft material or the band-shaped portion 2 is thin and has a low rigidity, the durability of the outsole 1 will unlikely lower.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 extends from a first end portion E1 of the rear edge portion RE of the rear foot portion 1R toward a second end portion E2 on the lateral side La of the rear foot portion 1R;
  • the outer sole 1 has a first roll-up portion 11 rolled up upwardly in the rear edge portion RE of the rear foot portion 1R;
  • the outer sole 1 has a second roll-up portion 12 rolled up upwardly in the lateral edge portion LE of the rear foot portion 1R;
  • the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 are continuous with each other via the hard material and/or a first high-rigidity portion thicker than the band-shaped portion 2 in the first roll-up portion 11 above the first end portion E1;
  • the first region ⁇ 1 and the second region ⁇ 2 are continuous with each other via the hard material and/or a second high-rigidity portion thicker than the band-shaped portion 2 in the second roll-up portion 12 above the second end portion E2.
  • the first roll-up portion 11 and the second roll-up portion 12 are formed in the rearfoot portion 1R, and the band-shaped portion 2 can be made so long as to reach the rear end of the foot and the lateral edge of the foot. Therefore, the band-shaped portion 2 flexes more easily, and the shock-absorbing property and the stability will be further increased.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 is divided in three equal parts in a longitudinal direction thereof, at least one of an average value of a width D1 of a first portion 21 closer to the first end portion E1 and an average value of a width D2 of a second portion 22 closer to the second end portion E2 is greater than an average value of a width D3 of a third portion 23 including the middle region RM.
  • an average value of a width D1 of the band-shaped portion 2 spanning from the portion of the middle region RM of the rear foot portion 1R to the first end portion E1 is greater than an average value of a width D2 of the band-shaped portion 2 spanning from the portion of the middle region RM of the rear foot portion 1R to the second end portion E2.
  • the second cleat C2 of the second region ⁇ 2 of the rearfoot exerts the function described above by being displaced toward the lateral side La. Therefore, the band-shaped portion 2 needs to flex in the width direction of the foot.
  • the width D1 of the band-shaped portion 2 extending from a portion of the middle region RM of the rearfoot portion 1R to the first end portion E1 is large, the amount of flexion also increases. Therefore, the shock-absorbing property and the stability will further increase.
  • an average thickness of the band-shaped portion 2 is less than an average thickness of portions of the first and second regions ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2 in the vicinity of the band-shaped portion 2.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 is thin, and the bending rigidity bf the band-shaped portion 2 is therefore small, thus making it even easier for the band-shaped portion 2 to flex.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 defines a groove G extending along the band-shaped portion 2.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 is depressed at the groove G in a cross section of the band-shaped portion 2.
  • This depressed portion deforms due to a bending stress when a bending moment is applied in the transverse direction across the band-shaped portion 2. That is, stress concentration occurs at the depressed portion, and the bending deformation due to a bending stress occurs easily. Therefore, it is easy for the second cleat C2 of the second region ⁇ 2 to be three-dimensionally displaced with respect to the first cleat C1 of the first region ⁇ 1.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 has a thick portion 20 extending along and on both sides of the groove G, and a thickness of the band-shaped portion 2 in the groove G is less than a thickness of the thick portion 20.
  • the groove G is not formed with the thick portion 20 being continuous with each other in the first and second end portions E1, E2, and the groove G is formed between the first end portion E1 and the second end portion E2.
  • a shoe in another aspect of the present invention, includes:
  • the rigidity of the band-shaped portion 2 is small, and a bending deformation is likely to occur in the band-shaped portion 2 due to a bending moment about the axis of the band-shaped portion 2. Therefore, the stability and the shock-absorbing property will improve in portions where the second cleats C2 are provided.
  • both of the elements c) and d) are satisfied.
  • groove G may partially run through a soft resin portion 32 as long as it will not excessively lower the strength when a bending moment is applied in the transverse direction across the band-shaped portion 2.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 is depressed at the groove G in a cross section of the band-shaped portion 2.
  • This depressed portion deforms due to a bending stress when a bending moment is applied in the transverse direction across the band-shaped portion 2. That is, stress concentration occurs at the depressed portion, and the bending deformation due to a bending stress occurs easily. Therefore, it is easy for the second cleat C2 of the second region ⁇ 2 to be three-dimensionally displaced with respect to the first cleat C1 of the first region ⁇ 1.
  • part of the energy from the load on the second cleat C2 is converted to a deformation energy, thereby reducing the impact energy acting upon the foot and improving the shock-absorbing property.
  • the second cleat C2 is likely to contact the ground in the vertical direction to the ground surface, and after second cleat C2 contacts the ground, the sole deformation speed decreases, thereby preventing excessive deformation of the foot and improving the stability.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 has a thick portion 20 extending along and on both sides of the groove G, and a thickness of the band-shaped portion 2 in the groove G is less than a thickness of the thick portion 20.
  • the band-shaped portion 2 has one end portion E1-E3 and another end portion E1-E3, and the end portions E1-E3 each face one of edge portions RE, LE, ME, TE of the outer sole 1; and the groove G is not formed with the thick portion 20 being continuous with each other in the end portions E1-E3, and the groove G is formed between the one end portion E1-E3 and the other end portion E1-E3.
